Chapter 1 - HIS ARRIVAL

AT MEGA HIT ENTERTAINMENT NEWS, LUXEMBOURG CITY.

A lady in her early-twenties could be seen lying down on her desk, her hair fell on her face covering her red, puffy eyes.

She wasn't just exhausted but also tired, stressed and over worked due to the complaints she has been receiving from her chief-editor who would stop at nothing at ensuring she comes up with an exclusive story capable of shaking not only the entertainment industry but also get netizens talking.

 "Marigold" A voice called out which got her jerking up from her slumber, she faced the direction in which her name was called and on seeing who it was, she frowned.

"Briana, what the hell is wrong with you, can't you see that I was busy trying to get some sleep before Mr Vincent makes up his mind to frustrate me"

 She groaned in frustration while Briana only sighed taking a seat beside her

"Girl, you look really bad, have you been sleeping" Briana asked

 "How would I, Mr Vincent has been on my neck lately in writing an exclusive, how does he want me to do it, does he think I'm someone who can magically makes an exclusive story appear out of nowhere"

 Briana only sighed at her friend's dilema

 "Well, I do not know what to say, but believe me if I were you, I would have quit this job a long time ago and besides your article page is really popular, a lot of agencies would definitely seek you out"

 Marigold breathed out in frustration

 "You might be right Brie, but no other agency would pay fifty thousand dollars every month, would they"

 "Whatever, right now what I do know is that you are going to be in really big trouble if you don't get your ass up and go cover the arrival of Alexandrine Don'diego".

Marigold brought out her phones and began searching the net "Where did you get your information"

Marigold asked "Girl, its all over the news in fact Gabriela Don'diego just confirmed it on her live podcast"

Briana responded and Marigold sighed tossing her phone

Knowing fully well that any minute from now, the chief editor would come and start stating her in-capabilities as an article writer. 

"Are you okay" Briana asked

"In 5---4---3---2-----"

 "Marigold" A thunderous voice was heard which got the all staff startled, all though they were used to his shouts and tantrums, they had never seen anyone as loud and mighty as this 

Briana looked at Marigold worriedly as she secretly motioned for her to run away

"No Briana, I must face him, its not a new thing for me" That was Marigold response to her

"I won't be here and watch him pours his frustration on you, good luck with him"

It wasn't after two minutes that Briana left for her station, Mr Vincent walked up to her throwing his Pad onto her desk

"What is this Marigold" She gulped down her saliva as her eyes met with the headlines of their rivals

"THE ARRIVAL OF THE NATION HEARTTHROB ALEXANDRINE DON'DIEGO"

"I'm sorry Sorry sir" She apologized

 "Sorry, did you just say sorry, did you know what your incompetence has made me loose, do you know what it has made the entire organization loose and all you can say is I'm sorry"

Marigold couldn't say anything as she lowered her head to show her remorse.

 Mr Vincent wanted to press further but a a phone call stop him from doing so, he answered it with little or no hesitation

After he had spoke with the person for more than three minutes, the caller ended the call and a beam of smile appeared on his facE 

"You should thank your stars, you were saved by this call, get ready we are attending Alexandrine Welcoming party"

Marigold looked at him shocked.

She had wanted to say something but he had already left her sight making her frown

Briana walked up to her and gave a great squeak hugging her

"Girl, you are so lucky, you get to attend his welcoming party while we watch ours via internet"

Marigold shrugged her off "Weren't you the one who just abandoned me right now, it wasn't even up to four minutes you did so"

Briana pouted "Don't say it like that, you are making it look like I'm a bad person"

"Don't give me that look you and I know that you are, you call me your best friend for life but can't even support me against the chief-editor" Marigold responded

 "So you are angry because of that, fine I'm sorry okay, please forgive me" Briana held her two ears as she pouted which got Marigold chuckling.

In a room endowed with riches and glory, a middle age lady could be seen seated on the vanity stool while about seven maids attended to her needs

"You look beautiful, madame" The head maid lady Ina complimented earning a smile from her.

She was happy, indeed happy that her son was coming home, although she usually speak with him using the phone but the joy she has that she'll see her son face to face knows no bound.

"Of course, I should look beautiful for my son's arrival" She stated

And that she was going to use to her advantage today at the Don'diego welcoming party for their son.

"Jasmine, I know I'm beautiful, stop gawking at me right now, the only person that has the right to upon seeing me is Alexandrine Don'diego" Viktoria said
