The drink was about to touch Daniel's lips when Victoria fell on him and the cup dropped, shattered and the wine spilled.

Immediately he grabbed her by the shoulder, "Babe are you okay?" Daniel asked worried.

Breathing heavily, "I'm feeling dizzy."

"What did you take?"

"I don't know, it's like there's a shortage of air in this place. Can we go home?"

Daniel looked up at everyone looking back at them with a surprised stare.

"Are you okay?" Raymond asked.

"She will be fine. We are very sorry, but we have to go." Daniel said politely.

Anger was painted all over Jeffrey's face, as he glanced at the wine on the floor and up at Victoria.

He knew that was no accident.

"We will be going now," Daniel said, took Victoria's hand, "again, so sorry about this," glanced at the floor, nodded, and began to walk toward the place they came in from.

"What just happens?" Wale asked.

"Someone is being a bad girl!" Jeffrey replied calm but angry. He dropped his cup and followed them,
      ..."Dan!" he called.

Daniel turned around and saw Jeffrey coming towards them.  "Sam went to get a towel when she fell. It would be rude to leave without at least saying goodbye to the host."

Daniel looked at Victoria, "Don't worry," Jeffrey added, "I will stay here with her."

Victoria nodded, with an assurance look.

Jeffrey took a few steps closer and stood beside her, watching Daniel as he went the opposite.

"If I don't know any better I will believe that was an accident."

Victoria smiled but did not say anything.

"What is it that you have Victoria Johnson? That makes you seem fearless?"

She smiled softly, "His name is Jesus. The King of kings; you might have heard of Him."

"Hm, I see. You are one of those woman that surround their husband?"

She glanced at him and back looking at her husband talking to Sam.

"So you get me alone just to ask what I have?" she said.

"You are messing with the wrong enemy Mrs Johnson."

She smiled, " I don't think so. If you're as powerful as you think you're, you should have sensed who walks in here with me. But the fact that you don't ... Makes me realize you are not as powerful as you think you are.

"That means you bow to someone who bows to another," She smiled and stepped in front of him, blocking his line of vision.

"You know Mr. Wellington, there are those who believe they have power, and there are those who truly have it.

"My God name is Yahweh, and I am not afraid of man who will soon wither away like grass on a rooftop."

"You are making a wrong enemy Victoria," he said calmly, looking directly into her eyes.

"Oh no, you did that when you think you can pick my family."

"Your husband took our money and influence, does he think it is free?"

She nodded slightly, "I knew something was not right with that boy. And I am hardly wrong.

"But, the earth is the Lord and the fullness thereof. My God don't have a problem using Syrian to bless Samaritan."
