You Should Be Able To Defeat The Lion
“Getting fingered by my husband, is anything the problem with that?”
“Lies! Ragnar Marshall is everything but poor in sex.” She said.
“Really?” She giggled.
“Shut the fuck up! I guess you came to serve him his coffee, right? You can go.”
“And who are you to tell me I can go? We have equal rights here remember?” Brigitta said and sat.
Cassie was so angry with Brigitta, “just so you know, Alex has escaped so you better watch your back.”
She turned to her, “but I can’t remember asking for your advise. If anyone will watch their back then I think it should be you.”
Cassie giggled, “and you must have seen how your name had become worthless on Twitter. You won’t be able to wash yourself clean in two lifetimes.”
“Let me worry about that, Cassie.” She said.
Then Ragnar Marshall stepped out, he went to sit and looked at Cassie, “how may I help you?”
“Sir… It’s private, I want Brigitta to leave us.”
“Brigitta is not done here, it’s either you come back or go ahead and say it.” He said.
Cassie felt so ashamed, yet, she managed to smile, “I better come back and say it, sir.” Then she walked out furiously.
Brigitta then stood, “I’m done here, sir.”
“Don’t step out of this company without my knowledge.”
“Got it, sir.” She knew he said that because of Alex that is on loose.
When she got back to her office, she called the junior officer, Grisah. Once he answered, she spoke, “Grisah, how is it?”
“Mrs. Brigitta, please check Twitter. The video is no more.”
“Good.” She immediately hung the call up and searched Twitter but couldn’t find the video. She even checked Google for it but it was no where to be found. She relaxed a bit but there is more, she must cleanse herself of the bad reputation people have labelled her with.
Then she went ahead and tweet, “I am Ragnar Marshall’s legal wife. Anyone interested to know can contact the Wigglesworth’s family and confirm. Secondly, my team had taken that video down, I’m not the one in the video, it’s true I attended Rollo’s party but I was never his victim of rape. That woman in that video isn’t me, I advise the members of the public to desist from spreading such false news as my lawyers wouldn’t take this defamation of characters with levity. Thank you.”
Then she closed the Twitter app, she must set her concentration back to work, soon, she began working.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
After work, she went to Ragnar’s office to tell her she was about to leave office but Ragnar Marshall was absent then Ottar walked in, “Ragnar Marshall already exited the building but don’t worry, our men are downstairs, they will lead you home.”
“Alright.” Then Brigitta was lead downstairs by Ottar and Beocca took over from there.
Whereas, Alex was let loose by Rollo’s bestfriend. Rollo’s bestfriend was also a force but for the government, he doesn’t work for private individuals like Rollo does. Once Alex managed to escape, he immediately sailed back in a ship to Maridonna.
He knew that Ragnar Marshall had eyes all over Jora City. Jora City was just at his palm and he can fish out even the smallest ant hiding in a hole talkless of him. But he thinks his safety is more guaranteed in Maridonna.
Once he got there, he immediately went to the palace where some of the palace doctors immediately began treatment on his body. Afterall, Ragnar Marshall had made him suffer immensely.
After three days, Alex was invited over to one of the training grounds in Maridonna’s palace. When Alex got there, he bowed respectively and greeted Prince Guthred and two of his brothers that were with him, they were Ulfur and Orm. They were both seven fits tall and are huge, their looks alone are scary, they were like giants. Ulfur and Orm are best in the use of swords and spears but their shooting skill is even beyound the skill of the best soldier in the United States.
But as tall as they are, Guthred was still taller than them. He was the tallest of all, biggest of all but in ruthlessness, the fifteen brothers could be said to be equally ruthless. In previous times, they have fought to death. Never for once has Maridonna kingdom been defeated by any country. They are on a class of their own, respected by top countries, including China, Russia, United States of America, South Korean, Indonesian and many more.
“Prince Guthred, you sent for me.” Alex bowed respectful.
But Alex could not help but wonder what Chester was doing in the midst of the three brothers. Chester was now dressed like a Maridonnian, for Maridonnian has their way of dressing, they have a totally different and unique culture. Alex wondered if Chester has found the favor of the brothers, afterall, he looked very happy.
“We learnt that you went to Jora City recently,” Orm said. He was the third of the fifteen brothers. His deep voice exudes glory and nobility.
“Yes… yes…” He stammered. Wondering why they are asking.
“We haven’t been to Jora City before but we are considering going there. How safe is the place? What’s their lifestyle like?” Orm asked, while the other two brothers watched Alex demeaningly. Although Alex was the commander in chief of the armed forces of the Wigglesworth’s family, nonetheless, the brothers could easily kill him with a kick of their boot.
“In terms of security, Jora City is good. And their economy is doing averagely well. Their currency is even stronger than the dollar. And their lifestyle is cool, my princes.” He explained with a palpitating heart. He can’t wait to escape their sight.
“Chester told us you kidnapped him from his mom,” Urf chirped.
“What! I did not. I did not. I’m his father. His mother and I were once married but we divorced.” Alex explained.
“Well, we will perform a DNA test and if you turn out not to be his father then…” Urf paused.
“You will prove yourself as a fighter by fighting with one of our fiercest lion.” Orm added.
“Myself and all my brothers had fought with wild animals in the past, it’s part of our training. As a commander in chief of the Wigglesworth’s family, you should be able to defeat Lion,” Urf said.
