First seed of revenge
“Lotus! What are you doing here?” asked Mr. Kent astonished by seeing his daughter here.
“I am the CEO of J&J Architect. I am here to show you the design of the new building and discuss the project.” Lotus said bluntly to her father. All this time George was admiring her beauty. She has become curvier and the elegant nude color business suit made her look like a mature businesswoman.
” Please, have a seat, Miss Lotus. We will start the presentation after the other party comes,” said General Lee. He was superior to Mr. Kent and George. Lotus took a seat far away from the two-man, her assistant sat beside her. She was discussing something with her assistant Stanley when another person entered the conference room.
“Hello, General Lee I am the representative of the Robinson Group Thomas Brown. As Mr. Robinson is currently in Paris for a business trip so I am here to represent him. He said that he is very sorry for not being able to make it to the meeting today,” said the man politely.
“It’s okay Mr. Brown please take a seat,” said General Lee.
After everyone was settled down in their place the presentation started. First Lotus presented a holographic model of the building and its details about safety and security. Then she shows an animated version of a project and how the building will look after completion. Everyone present at the meeting praised the design and Lotus for her extraordinary presentation except for two people. After Lotus, Mr. Brown presented their idea and method of construction and the estimated time to complete the building according to Lotus’s design. At last General Lee said about his opinion on the project and asked for some changes to the design and Lotus agreed with him. Then he shook hands with both Mr. Brown and Lotus.
“It will be a great pleasure to work with you Miss Kent,” said Mr. Brown.
“Same to you Mr. Brown. My assistant will contact you and fix a meeting so that we can finalize everything,” Lotus said with humbleness.
“Sure Miss Kent, our CEO will be back by the day after tomorrow then I will fix a meeting with him and let your assistant know.”
Mr. Brown was talking when General Lee barked into the conversation.
“Did I hear Miss Kent? Are your surname Kent miss Lotus?” he asked.
“Yes, General Lee. My full name is Lotus Rosabella Kent,” said Lotus proudly.
“Colonel Kent is she somehow related to you?” he asked this time to Mr. Kent.Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
Steven Kent became stiff for a moment; he was about to disagree with the fact that he was related to Lotus but Lotus didn’t give him a chance. She replied first to the question.
“Yes, Colonel Steven Kent is my father. But I wasn’t in the country for a while so he didn’t know about me joining this project.”
“Oh!!! Then you must be very proud of your daughter. She is a very talented woman,” said General Lee.
Steven was silent for some moment and then replied, “You are right General I’m proud of her.”
“Okay, then we will leave you for a family reunion let’s go Mr. Brown.”
Mr. Brown left with General Lee. Stanley looked at his boss and Lotus nodded at him to leave the room too. So he took the laptop and files with him and then left the room. Now there were only 3 people in the large conference room.
“I was just wondering if you are proud of me father? I remember that you were ashamed of me,” Lotus asked her father.
“How dare you put your name in this project. I can see how shameless you are to still use the family name of Kent,” Steven yelled at her.
“I am here because of my talent and hard work not for your name. Your dear daughter Lilly needs to use that name for her purpose, not me,” Lotus replied back.
“Don’t talk nonsense about my wife Lotus. At first, see your deeds,” this time George replied to her.
“Oh, George!!! From the word deeds, I remember that you were cheating on me with my sister while we were engaged. You were sleeping with her. So, how are you going to describe your deeds?” hearing Lotus’s words Steven looked at George for an answer but George was thunderstruck by the revelation of his affair with Lilly.
“That’s a lie. Now you want to put all the blame on me and Lilly to hide your sins. Do you have any proof of what you are saying?” George shouted at Lotus.
Then Lotus took out her phone and played a recording. This was the recording of the conversation between her and Lilly in her office 4 years back. That time she wanted to find proof so that her father will accept her back. But she never used that recording as the acceptance of her father didn’t matter to her anymore. She was waiting for the right moment to use it and this was it.
After listening to the recording it was clear that Lotus was innocent and it was all Lilly’s planning to make her drunk and sent her to another man. Also, it clearly proved that George and Lilly were having an affair.
“It was you and Lilly who conspired against me; you sent me to another man and made me look like a characterless woman. While in reality I was framed and ra*ed that night. You did everything so that you can marry Lilly and get all the property of my father to yourself,” Lotus deliberately blamed both George and Lilly for 2 reasons. One she wanted to be sure about his role in this conspiracy and second, she wanted him to be punished for his cheating.
The reaction of the two men satisfied her. Where Steven Kent was fuming with anger at George and George was ashamed and dumbfounded.
“Now you know the truth Mr. Kent hope you’re proud of your daughter Lilly,” after taunting her father Lotus left the conference room.
Lotus had a winning grin and head high in pride while leaving the conference room. Everything went as she planned. The first seed of revenge had been planted successfully.
At Kent Mansion’s living room……
Steven was sitting with his wife and Lilly and George were sitting opposite them.
“Tell me the truth did you both were having an affair when George was engaged to Lotus?” asked Steven sternly. His voice was like a thunderstorm.
“That incident had passed a long time ago; why are you talking about this now dear? What happened?” asked Miranda.
“What happened? You are asking me what happened. To get married to George your daughter spoiled Lotus’s life and she was ra**d that night,” shouted Steven.
“This is all a lie dad. Lotus is trying to blame me for her sins,” replied Lilly like a spoiled brat.
“Shut up. I heard the conversation of you and Lotus and you agreed with your own words in that recording,” said Steven Kent.
Hearing about the recording Lilly’s face became pale. She couldn’t utter a word.
“Both of you ruined her life. If you both were in a romantic relationship then why did you marry her and make her a culprit in our eyes? You could directly come to me and tell me about your relationship.”
Hearing Steven’s words George spoke up, “Don’t put your daughter’s blame on me, father. It was Lilly who seduced me and she framed Lotus I didn’t know a single word about her plan. I was happy to marry Lotus. I loved her.”
George tried to put all the blame on Lilly. He never loved her. First, he used her as she was good in bed then married her to be a part of the Kent family. Now after knowing that she planned everything to make him lose Lotus, he lost his interest in her.
“How dare you put all the blame on my daughter? If you loved Lotus that much then why did you have an affair with Lilly? You were sleeping with her at that time. Were you planning to marry one sister and make your mistress another sister?” seeing her daughter was getting stuck in the situation Miranda couldn’t stay quiet. She tried to blame George for the sake of Lilly. She was afraid that Lilly will spill her name if she had to carry all the blame.
“It sounds like you knew about our relationship, mother in law then, why didn’t you tell anything to dad? Why didn’t you stop the marriage of Lotus and me?” George asked Miranda. His eyes were shining as he had found a way to escape from all the blame. He didn’t care about his wife or his mother-in-law; all he cared about was his father-in-law. He couldn’t put his job at stake by being on the wrong side of Steven Kent.
“Is it true Miranda? Did you know everything? Why didn’t you tell me?” shouted Steven at his wife.
Miranda became pale at their question. She understood that their planning had been exposed. So she tried to play innocent. She started crying.
“Believe me Steven I didn’t know anything before Lilly’s marriage. Only after their marriage, did I get to know about everything. I scolded her a lot after knowing everything. Please forgive her, Steven. She was a child back then. She was blind by George’s love,” Miranda tried to persuade Steven. She added, “George you knew she was madly in love with you. She didn’t even think twice before deceiving her sister for you. Please forgive her,” she pleaded to save her and her daughter’s marriage.
“You are pleading for your daughter Miranda? What about my Lotus? She had been through hell all this time. Even I disowned my daughter. I will never forgive you and your daughter,” Steven said to Miranda.
“I am leaving father-in-law; I can’t stand here with this malicious daughter of yours,” with that, George stood up.
“Don’t leave me George, please take me with you. I know I was wrong and I am sorry for everything; don’t leave me alone here,” Lilly pleaded to George with tears while grabbing his arm.
“I need time to absorb the truth. I need a break from everything. Please let me go,” George pushed her hand away and left Kent’s mansion.
“Dad please, stop him. He will listen to you only. I can’t live without him,” Lilly said to her father.
“You deserve it for breaking your sister’s marriage. I can’t say anything and don’t you dare call me Dad again,” saying that Steven went up to his bedroom. Miranda hugged her daughter to console her.
“Don’t worry my dear he will forgive you and come back to you. Give him some time.”
“Are you sure mom? I don’t think he will come back; he lost interest in me a long time ago.”
“Don’t worry. He won’t dare to offend your dad. He will come back. Now go to your room and take a rest I have to go see your dad,” said Miranda to her daughter.
After leaving Kent’s mansion George was happy. He was bored with Lilly. He lost interest in her a long time ago. She didn’t do anything except for wasting his money on shopping for several clothes and make-up. For the last 1 year, he had several affairs on her back. Now that he had found a way to get rid of her he would not let this chance go. After seeing Lotus today he was astonished by her beauty even more. She was more beautiful and mature than before. George was determined to win over Lotus again. Seeing their past history it wouldn’t be hard for him to win her heart. Thinking about Lotus’s curvy body George was feeling needy so he went to one of his mistresses to release his needs.
George was vigorously thrusting inside a woman. She was a struggling model who was with him only for his money. George imagined her as Lotus, though she was nowhere near to Lotus’s beauty he imagined Lotus was under him na**d.
“Lotus I am coming. I am coming to you,” with that he released himself.
