"Crash", a cup smashes on the ground. "Oh no!, oh no!. What has she done?, I must stop her before things get out of control. She isn't getting me into trouble." Rufus paced his sitting room as he watched the news.

The news which reported Nikki's encounter with the press. He took his phone from his pocket, his hands shook heavily, his body was also shaking and sweating at the same time.

He sat on a blue sofa in his sitting room, he unlocked his phone and began to make a call.

"Hello!, why are you calling at this late hour?", an unknown voice said.

"Sor-sorry for the inconvenience" he apologized. "But you see, am calling you because it's important."

"What's it?" the unknown voice bellowed through the phone speakers.

"I think...................." , Rufus continued speaking in a low voice.

................

Fifteen minutes later

"Don't worry about it, I'll see to it" the unknown voice said.

"Em, and don't worry about me. Whatever she's up to, it'll end soon, I promise" he said.

"Good, now bye" the unknown voice said before ending the call.

Rufus stood up and walked to the portrait of his brother (Andre Wellington) in his sitting room. Hanged on the blue walls of the sitting room. He looked at the portrait of his brother, he turned his back towards the painting, sighed and walked away.

New Day in New York

Nikki was driving through the streets of New York. She drove to W.E.Ls Royal Boutique in her Mercedes Benz GL 450. A boutique in New York owned by W.E.L.

She walked into the boutique. "Ah, yes you're right, everyone says the Chairman's daughter is too proud. As proud as a peacock, they say", one of the boutique attendants said.

"I heard she clearly has no manners" another said.

"I've heard that she isn't graceful or beautiful at all, yet she comes out of nowhere to control the company" another said.

Nikki stared at them in horror, she couldn't believe what this attendants were saying and they cleary didn't have enough work to fill their hands.

A lady walked out of the dressing room, she admired her outfit in the mirror with an attendant by her side.

"Oh miss, you're ever so beautiful. No one can match your beauty, this outfit suits you perfectly" the attendant said with a smile plastered on her face.

The lady turned around admiring herself in the mirror.

In another part of the boutique, the three attendants chatted excitedly unaware that Nikki was there the whole time they gossiped about her.

"Ahem, ahem" Nikki coughed. Suddenly the three attendants turned and looked at her with shock in their eyes.

Nikki looked at them, she read their expression, they were SHOCKED for sure. She looked at the attendants, one of them had her hair made into a bun and was quite fat, her uniform was tight on her body, another was tall with no shape, as though she were an Amoeba, another had acne all over her face and bags under her eyes as though she hadn't slept in ages. Their uniforms were a mixture of red and black.

They were all shaking and wished the ground would open and swallow them.

"I see that workers here don't have jobs to do" Nikki raised her voice, so that her voice sounded throughout the boutique.

Different attendants and customers turned and looked at Nikki. They couldn't believe it was the Chairman's daughter in their midst.

The lady who was trying out different outfits with an attendant spurned to look at Nikki.

An attendant walked up to Nikki and said "Welcome Miss Nikki, would you like to shop for clothes?, I can help you select dashing outfits". She glared daggers at the three attendants who were gossiping earlier.

"I should close down this place, since people here clearly do not take their jobs seriously, maybe give you an extra workload so you wouldn't have time to gossip."

"Well, since you said you'll help me select dazzling outfits, let's get started, shall we?."

"Of course Miss, right this way" the attendant led Nikki through various sections.

Nikki was browsing outfits in various sections of the boutique when she walked past a lady trying out different outfits.

The lady was wearing a dull grey suit with black stripes, and an eel swan brooch which looked as though it was going to fall by the minute.

Nikki picked up the same suit and tried it on.

"Well Miss. You're so beautiful no one in this city is as fair as you. Not even that stuck up Chairman's daughter" the attendant said.

Nikki face turned into a frown. She wondered if all the attendants in the boutique were expected to flatter customers at all times.

"Well, she's one outspoken person, if I must say. Am not sure if she fits to run the company. She's quite arrogant" the lady said.

"Anybody who fits into this clothe is a FASHION VILLAIN!!!! (terrorist)", Nikki exclaimed as she threw the suit on the floor.

The Lady and the attendant looked at Nikki. The lady whispered into the attendants ear and the attendant leaves.

The lady walked over to where Nikki stood and said "You must be the Chairman's daughter, it's a pleasure to meet you.

Nikki stepped back and looked at her she was coming close to Nikki, cornering her to a row of clothes. "And who are you?."

The lady looked at her from head to toe, with a smug smile she said "AM YVONNE MICHELLE."
