Chapter 33 Who is she?
The….
The hell?.
What…. what…. what did he just did?
Where did he even come from?
How…. how…Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
“Do you know him, Ma’am?”Lydia asked and Janelle shook her head.
“Who, who are you young man?”Janelle demanded.
“Me?, well, I’m someone you will know but not know. Good bye.”he smiled.
Janelle scoffed and stood up.
She was going to give him an earful.
“If you don’t identify yourself, I promise, you will be behind the bars very soon..”
“I’m Max.”he said and turned around but suddenly looked back at her.
“By the way, you look good in your red and blue outfit”
And he left.
Woah. What just happened?. This is probably the craziest thing she has seen.
The waiter came around with their order and cast a quizzical look at Janelle.
“Is there anything wrong, ma’am?”
Janelle turned to him, sighed and sat down.
The waiter slowly set the plates on the table.
Janelle took a donut and took a hefty bite.
There’s to be something behind this.

Boyd stood up from his seat, finally deciding to leave the office and go home to have a good rest since he’s not at all busy today. And, he should rest for tomorrow cause it gonna be quite hectic.
His phone chimes in his trouser pocket and stopped walking and inserted his hand inside his pocket to check the message that enters.
He unlocked his phone and clicked on the message box then on the new message.
It was a photo.
Janelle’s took a picture with a guy… and they maintained close proximity.
Woa. He was even placing his lips on her right cheek.
The photo is from the same source that sent him the previous photo.
He clicked his tongue.
This is getting interesting.
The sender does not even support reply.
He forwarded the picture to Janelle with a text _ “care to explain this?.
He shoved the phone inside his pocket angrily and went out of his office.
.
After having breakfast with Lydia, she dropped her at the hospital she recommended before returning to work.
Stepping inside the office, a message came in on her phone.
She closed the door behind her before checking the message.
She scoffed when she saw what George sent her.
Well, she saw this coming.
Max. She’s gonna find him and surely make him pay for trying to destroy her home.
But then, who is he really?
Why does he want to destroy her home?
Was he sent?
She ignored George’s message and went to sit down.
..
“Ugh, Diana…. please, spare me all that. You have a date with Ren, alright. Nothing new. It’s not as if you just started dating.”
“Gosh, I’m just so happy. Here we part ways, Mrs McFarland. Bye. I can’t wait to meet my Ren”Diana gushes out and walked away briskly.
Geez. Janelle shook her head but then smiled. She’s happy for her. She’s unlike her. She will have to go face a battle field at home with George. He’s just never considerate. He’s so gullible.
She enters her car and drove off.
..
“For Christ’s sake, George. Don’t be stupid. Are you really the man I’m married?. The man I married was very considerate and… wait, what am I even saying, you’re never considerate and that’s one of your flaws!. When I told you I was raped by those guys back in Paris then, I remember what I got. A fucking silent treatment!”
“Nice shot, Janelle. Nice shot. I’m stupid?, wow.”
“Can you just shut up, George. Arg, you’re pulling my insides out.”
“Then explain the fucking picture!”
“I’ve told you without time that I don’t know him!. I don’t!. He just appears out of nowhere and took a picture with me!”
“You sound stupid, don’t you think?. He came out of nowhere?. Probably you think I’m a fool!.”
“Look, I don’t care anymore. You can do whatever you want. You inconsiderate being. Bunch of fool, bastard. You should grow up.”she cursed angrily and walked away.

*Next morning
…
They both left home without talking to each other.
George was really fuming when he left the house this morning but Janelle was really remorseful.
All, but, she shouldn’t have called him names.
Tho, she tried talking to him but he wasn’t even giving her any chance.
He literally shut her out.
On getting to her office that morning, she couldn’t focus on her work.
She was lost in daze with what was happening between her and George.
Diana came around and started telling her about how she spent the other night with Ren but she was far far away from the reality so she was just nodding.
All Diana talks all sounded afar.
Diana went back to her office later on.
Janelle kept thinking on how to make it up with George.
Tho he did got her infuriated but her words were really harsh. She even called him bastard… what he hate most. What he hate to hear most. That always makes him angry and remember his dad that he lost right from childhood.
She finally settled with an idea which is to placate him with his favorite food.
She took her phone and ordered for fried noodles with fried Chicken.
She really hopes it works.
When the order arrived, she left for George’s company.
On getting inside his company, she got so many greetings and respect.
When she got in front of his office, she took a sharp breath in and opened the door.
She shut her lips tightly and stepped in.
But… what she got next shocked her.
Her eyes widened.
George was.. was with a lady and the lady was romancing him.
