Gatekeeping (High Society Book 2)(Completed)

48| Scandalised & Nifty

RnB music played softly from the speaker upon our entry to the pool. I was surprised to see the group seated on porch chairs drinking and it wasn't those that I've seen in the pool. The guys had the girls in their laps and although I was use to seeing it both in high school and university here, it wasn't happening in my home.

Noah and Persephone looking over at me as they were the first to notice. Walking over to the speaker by the poolside, I wanted to kick it into the water but due to Prince and Tristan's warning, I behaved and turned it off. Now all eyes were on me but not Jada, she was just resurfacing the water. "Hello there."

"Ha... Hi Asheika." She greeted with a grin.

"It's Mrs. Trent, dear." I corrected and she nods, looking pass my feet to my friends then her own. "Are these your guest?"

"Yes Miss."

"Okay, and did you get permission from me or my husband before they came here?" I asked with a smiled and dread filled her expression. "I thought so. Well, introduced them to me seeing as though they can drink and relax on private property."

"Um." She  wanted to speak but I didn't let her. Gesturing for her to get out, which she did. She took my towel that has my initial on it, wrapping it around her then following me. "Guys."

"You were serious. It is Asheika Ellis!" One shouts happily.

"On shit. We're really at her house!"

"Thanks you, Mrs. Trent, for inviting us here..." They continued thanking me and I just smiled stiffly and turned to Jada.

"Care to finish the introduction seeing as I don't know your friends?" I remarked and she only frown, scared for my reaction.

After the introduction of all persons that I don't know, realising it was her old friends from school that lives not too far from Oakwood.

"I do apologize, for Jada may have had some misunderstanding about the rules my family and I have placed for everyone who works or reside at the ranch. Stating that it should followed accordingly or there will be consequences. Are you staying for the day or was a little holiday thing?" I inquired ask the group looked shocked and confused.

"We're staying for a week."

"Yeah, that's what she told us."

"We weren't invited, Jada. So you have the audacity to lie to us and our parents." A girl gasped, shocked at what I've said.

"Are you serious! Is that why you had us waiting so many times while you talk to the guards?"

"I can't believe you. You'll never change and I should've listened to mom when she said you weren't good company."

"Bad fucking influence, that's what you are. You've got issues that your parents need to deal with because I'm done and I'm sure the others are too. You're a fucking narcissist and I didn't move here to deal with your crap. I'm not letting you get me into anymore trouble before you want to live wild and free. Now you've crossed the line, the fucking circle, I got a future ahead of me, we all have. This is private property and I'm going to jail again because of you. I'm done, I'm breaking up with you." The guy spat, sounding rather sweet with his British accents.

"Josh, I'm sorry..."

"You're not fucking sorry!" He shouted and the vein stood in his forehead and neck.

"Please don't break up with me. I'll..."

"I already did! I know you hate being alone but now we're done with you, and your parents are going to find out about you being an addict on pills and how suicidal you are." He threatened, but now they do know before they weren't being quiet and most if not all the staffs around weren't listening, or watching rather. "Or were you pretending because you're good at it. You're a real narcissist, you're manipulative and controlling, but I'm ending it today. I'm dragging you down with us because we're done defending you bad actions."
