"Nikki!!, It's so nice to see you!!" Renee exclaimed as she hugged Nikki. 

  "Why didn't you inform me that you were coming?" Renee asked Nikki as she ushered her to a chair.

  Nikki sat down on the chair tired from the day's journey.

  "I just wanted it to be a surprise visit, and it looks like it really is."

  Mr Phillipe walked towards Nikki and offered her a cup of water which she drank in one go since she was thirsty.

  "So where are the rest of the family?" Nikki inquired.

  "They went out but they'll be back soon, you should freshen up. Phillipe will lead you to the guest room, emm.... Mr Phillipe!!!" Renee replied as she called Mr Phillipe.

  "Coming Miss" Mr Phillipe answered.

    Mr Phillipe walked into the living room few minutes later.

   "Mr Phillipe do show Nikki the guest room please" Renee said.

  "Of course Miss, right this way Miss Nikki" Mr Phillipe said as he took Nikki to the guest room.

   🎯 In the Guest Room. 

  Nikki walked into the guest room after she thanked Mr Phillipe. The guest room was ultra luxurious with a king-sized bed with white-blue silky sheets, an expensive Turkish rug, a white dresser and white wardrobe with gold handles to match, a huge glass mirror that showed a person's figure from head-to-toe, fancy little chandeliers, and an Air conditioner (Ac) to freshen up the room, a huge plasma tv attached to the wall, blue chairs and a black glass table with a vase full of beautiful flowers and a grand teapot and cups were on the table.

  Nikki admired the room as she thought it looked more like a luxury hotel room than an ordinary guest room.

  She walked towards the huge windows and opened the curtains, the curtains had a blue-green flower embroidery.

  Nikki opened the windows and a fresh gust of air hit her, there and then Nikki wished she were in her garden back home watering the beautiful flowers and gardening, she did miss home but she knew she had something to do.

  She walked towards the huge bed and sat on it and she took her phone and dialed the number of Betty the house keeper.

  After a few rings Betty finally picked up. 

  "Hello Miss" Betty said. 

  "Hello Betty, how's everything back at the Mansion" Nikki said.

  "Everything is great, the Mansion's staff already miss you, so miss have you arrived?" Betty inquired.

  "Oh yes I have, that's what I want to inform you about, I arrived safely and it's wonderful here at the Johnston's Mansion" Nikki replied.

  "Hope you have a great time there, looking forward to your return."

  "Am definitely looking forward to returning home, see you soon" Nikki said as she ended the call.

  Nikki stood and headed to the bathroom attached to the guest room, IT WAS LUXURIOUS!!!.

   It's as though the Johnstons loved anything luxurious, definitely anything to show off their wealth.

  The bathroom was draped with beautiful marble tiles(both wall and floor), with a beautifully shaped wash basin, a toilet seat (Wc)made like a chair with leather arm rest (it definitely looked like a chair except the seat part), a bathtub decorated with flowers by the side and some red petals were on the water floating gracefully, a towel hanger, a shower which was faux gold(french for Fake gold).

  Nikki turned on the shower and had a refreshing bath.

  Uncle Rufus coughed at what his Sister said, he was definitely surprised as to how she knew that the Directors where Loyal to him.

  He looked at her with a look of surprise but immediately feigned ignorance.

  "I definitely have no idea of what you're saying. "

  "Hmm... Really?, You can't fool me, can you?" Camelia said as she moved a chess piece.

  Uncle Rufus moved a piece as he wondered as to how his Sister knew about this secret.

  "Checkmate Brother."

  "Wow!, You've won. Guess I wasn't paying attention to the game, you've become exceedingly skillful at this game" Uncle Rufus compliments his Sister.

  "Thanks Brother, you see in this life, when you know what you want you know how to get it, so winning in Chess is easy but winning in Life's game requires skill Brother. And there's one thing I want to ask you Brother, 𝘿𝙊 𝙔𝙊𝙐 𝙏𝙍𝙐𝙎𝙏 𝙈𝙀??!!!."
