I opened my
“What are you doing here by this time of the night?” I asked with a thoughtful expression but before she could reply to me, I asked again.
How did d you even find me here? How did you know my place? Veronica and I haven’t exchanged words before so I don’t remember telling her my
location
“Relax” She said with a chill voice
Can I come inside? I need to speak to you. It’s about your woman” She said with a firm expression and holding out the door for her.
“Does your man know that you’re outside by this time of the night?” I asked but s

she averted her gaze with a lack of interest in my words.
Do you want to hear what I have to say or do you want to question me about my relationship too!” She asked with detest in her voice.
I didn’t care what she thought, I needed to know that I was safe first before I heard her spew rubbish from her mouth.
I’ve heard about Veronica and her cunning ways and I knew
ew that this was no exception, she wanted to sway me with her words but I was prepared

“Before I listen to what you h
“And if I don’t?” She asked with a frown
The door is still open 1 gestured towards the partly opened door.
She kept quiet and looked intently at me and I wondered what her aim was. She said she came to talk to me about Ana but I was supposed to be
with Ana now.
Did she have something else up her sleeves? I questioned myself but I also wanted to hear what she had to say about Ana, perhaps I could get some info from her.
“Tine.” She replied curtly.
First question, how did you know where I say? Lasked, looking at her facial expression for any clue.
“I have my ways” She replied with a shrug and my
my insides ti
tightened at her words.
My mind instantly went to Ana, if she could approach me at my place, she could as well, go to Ana’s.
I suddenly felt uncomfortable speaking with her.
“You should leave, we’ll talk about this some other time,” I said with a frown
She stared at me with confusion but I ignored it and made for the door but she held me back
“You promised you’d listen if I answered your questions. You can’t break your promise now” She said and her words stung me. Why did I make such a promise when I knew how cunning she could be? Now she’s going to use that to hold me down
“Okay, I only have a minute of my time to spare, be fast,” I said, staring at my wristwatch.

She smiled at my words “I’ll be quick?” Something about her words made me feel uneasy but
“You know, I wondered why a man as influential as you are would be affiliated with a woman like An. I knew that she’s a seductress and a mischievous person but I didn’t think that you of all people would fall for the likes of her, she’s a nobody” She paused when I raised
Why would she say such about Ana before me? She knew that her words agitated me and she paused

I’m not saying that you’ll break up or you should leave her, it’s none of my business. All I want as for you to hold your woman. Tell her to stay away from my man and keep to hen” Veronica spoke without caution, the anger in her voice was noticeable.
She wasn’t the only one angry. I was too. The words that came out of her mouth were almost unbelievabile,
And it made me think for a minute that the either didnt have eyes or she had bad sight because even from afar, anyone Quinn was the one chasing after Ana like a predator would chase in prey.

“I tried so hard not to judge you by the words I’ve heard about you but hearing you speak now, I’ve concluded that you have a critical eye problem and you should get that checked” I said, trying so hard not to show the anger that churned within me.

“Don’t say anything. I’m not done yet, I said and she swallowed her words.
“Even a blind man can tell that your fiance’s the one all over Ana like a fly following dirt.” I said and she furrowed her forehead in anger.
I could care less about how the truth made her feel honestly.
“Is that what you came here to tell me” Lasked, fresh anger churning within me.
“This was a total waste of my time. Next time, make your research well or better still, ask your source for their views, I hope their sight is not as bad as yours.” I said and walked to the door.
It was suspicious that she didn’t try to argue or prove a point but I figured that her shame wouldn’t let her.
She reluctantly walked towards the door but I stopped her once more.
Think
“You know, the real wonder here is how Quinn of all people would settle for a dumb ass lady. No matter how I think of it, it just doesn’t make sense. And one more thing, don’t ever come to my house without an invite from me” My expression matched my serious tone.
Veronica walked out, I made sure to lock the gate behind her and picked up my phone when I went inside but it was switched off
Veronica that bitch! I cursed inwardly as I turned it on.
