'That should teach you a fucking lesson not to mess with me and that goes to every fucking person present here," Sapphire said pushing Heather away, she loosed her balance and fell to the ground.
Sapphire stood straight and stared at everyone present in the room with cold eyes, leaving no emotion showing.
'Mess with me and I would give you a fate worse than the terrible ones you already had, got it?" She asked and they all cowered.
Sapphire felt like she was on top of the world, it felt strangely satisfying and ordinary as she watched them avert their eyes.
She wondered why on earth she never did this in the past, these people who just stood rooted in a spot would be the first to initiate an argument between her and Melissa years ago.
They were the one that backbite her the most in the past, well they also did it to her face with Heather's support.
'I hate your guts," Heather said, gritting her teeth. Melissa said to her like Heather is the most pathetic thing she had ever seen, she shook her head and walked away.
'Who cares? You couldn't reach it anyways," Sapphire said and Tiara nodded firmly.
'You come with me, I haven't introduced you to the chefs, it has been a while since they saw you, the chefs always asked about you, she would be so pleased to see you," Tiara said with smiles and Sapphire stared at her in surprise.
Tiara Luther was making it perfectly clear to everyone that she is on Sapphire's side, what made her surprised was that normally she wouldn't involve herself in things like this.
'Have you been invited to the yoga practice or should I invite you?" Tiara asked and Sapphire nodded.
'Melissa did," Sapphire said and the lady nodded.
'Isn't she supposed to let you be, I am curious about the reason why she invited you to the practice, weren't you supposed to be enemies?" Gladys said and both Sapphire and Tiara flinched.
Sapphire wondered what she was doing, walking with them.
'Aren't we supposed to be enemies?" Sapphire asked and Gladys rolled her eyes.
'What are we? Kindergarten kids?" Gladys asked and Tiara poked her tongue at her. 'Well, maybe Tiara is."

'Hi babies," Sapphire said, opening her arms wide for her kids to rush into but they just sat on the couch ignoring her. She moved closer to them and sat on the couch?
'What is wrong?" She asked but they didn't answer her, they turned to stare the other way. 'Why are you guys angry?"
'They are angry because you didn't inform them that you are going to be late and you also promised them that you and Alexander would take them to go see a movie at the cinema," Alyssa said, sitting on the bean bag Alicia helped her carry to the living room all the way from her room.
'Oh my gosh, I totally forgot about that, I am so sorry darlings, I forgot that I had a cooking class to attend today, the class takes place every Friday," Sapphire apologized, but they still didn't talk.
'Where is Alexander?"
'He isn't back,"
'Was he usually this late when we came here?" Sapphire asked, and Alyssa nodded.
'He started coming home early because of you guys, I guess he can't push back the work today," Alyssa explained.
'I am sorry Kids, I would make it up to you, how about we go to the park tomorrow after I return from practice? How about that? I promise you guys that it would be fun," Sapphire said and the twins just nodded half-heartedly.
'Goodnight," they both chorused and went to their room, glancing back to see if their mother would follow them but they were disappointed when she just continued to talk with Alyssa.
'Where are you going champs?"
'To bed," Andrea replied, Andrew just kept walking his room, the sullen expression not leaving her face.
'And your mom?" She asked, Andrea pointed to Sapphire who was talking to Alyssa, Luci stared at her and sighed.
'How about I take you guys there and tuck you in?" Luci said and Andrea nodded. 'Come on champs," she said, leading them to their room.
She turned to stare at Sapphire again and a sigh left her lips.

'This confirms that Ms. Tina isn't drunk, high on drugs or keeping it in her possession," The manager of Triple A brand told the people standing in front of her and Tina nodded while Venita shook her head.
They had come to the company to sign the last part of the contract but Venita had suddenly accused her of being on drugs and hiding some of it in her bag and car.
The executives quickly started to investigate the matter, they had to wait for an hour before the test result was out of the hospital and when they searched the car they found nothing.
'Wait….what? That is not possible…she definitely used drugs I am sure of that before I reported it, I won't make a false report, I saw it in her car when we were coming here." Venita said, shaking her head.
'How about you give us evidence that you are in my car, your explanation won't cut it out," Tina said with a polite expression, she was smirking internally, she knew that she had to leave a good impression on the executives.
'You are saying this because you know that I have no evidence, you are sure that you can't be caught, that is why you are smug," Venita said with clenched teeth and fist.
'With the level of confidence you have in the fact that I have drugs in my car, I would have thought that you planted some drugs in my car," Tina said and Venita stared at her with wide eyes.
'What..what the hell–"
'But it is cool, we both know that you won't do something like that, you were just watching out for Triple A and me. You didn't want me to go on the bad way you think I was in," Tina said and moved closer to her, she wrapped her hand on her shoulder. 'Thank you Nita ' she said, finally letting her smirk show.
She remembered what they did to make her plan fail, Hannah had seen Tina dropping something in her car and had called her attention to it.
Tina's plan was to go to her and tell her off but Hannah stopped her, she proposed a fun way to deal with Nita, it would be more embarrassing for the model.
Hannah and Tina watched as Venita, who was usually the first to get in her car and drive off to Triple A, stayed behind, ignoring her manager who was urging them to go.
'She is waiting for me to get into the car so she can confirm the mission is successful," Tina said and Hannah nodded. 'How about we find a glove and throw it on the road?" she had asked but Hannah shook her head.
'How about we do this, I have a friend that deals with cars, I can call him to help us, he would bring a car that is the same model and color as yours, I am sure that she would trail you so we would distract her one way or the other and change cars,"
'That way she would be hundred percent sure that I have drugs with me, she would make a big fool of herself in front of the executives."
'Yeah," Hannah said and they both smirked. 'Now find an excuse to delay all of them while I complete our mission,"
'But next time Nita, you should get the facts right before accusing someone of something, even if you want to help them, you are lucky that Tina is nice, someone else would have taken it personally," The manager reprimanded Venita.
'With that, all sides have completed the signing process, we want you to begin work on Monday, see you later," She continued before she shook hands with Tina and walked away.
'This isn't fucking over, Tina. You should expect worse from me," Venita said, taking her bag in anger and barging out of the place, she yelled at her manager who tried to talk to her.
'Yeah, get angry, get furious, because only then would you be able to make mistakes that we would pick on," Tina said, staring at the door she got out from.
She took her phone and dialed Hannah's number, a grin spreading on her lips.
'The mission is successful."

Sapphire opened the fridge and removed a bottle of soda, she was having a hard time sleeping but the fact that she felt restless because Alexander hadn't come back from work.
It was past midnight and even Alyssa had gone to bed, Alicia told her that she always waited, Sapphire wondered what could be wrong.
She sat on the couch and the door opened, revealing Alexander whose clothes and head was soaked in blood.
Sapphire eyes widened as she stared at him in shock.
