ROYALTY

Chapter 15

They got to the gate and the gate keeper opened the gate immediately and bowed down. Debby ignored him and walked calmly to the front door of the mansion. She turned to look at Ella. Ella understood and opened the door. Debby walked to the living room door about to open it when she overheard Minister Iwi yelling on the phone.

“What do you mean she’s here, why will the Queen be here? Hold her off!” Minister Iwi yelled on the phone.

“So you don’t want me to pay you a visit.” Debby said smiling. Her voice drew the attention of the people in the living room to her. She came in rather silently and Iwi that was trying to solve the crisis he was in didn’t notice her in the living room until she spoke up.

Advisor Williams came to visit to discuss how what they will do next and Minister Oliver rushed over here after the evidences were released to the press. So when Debby spoke up, the two ministers and Advisor Williams turned to the door and were shocked to see Debby there.

Neither of them spoke for a while and Debby was tired of standing at the door so she spoke with a clearly mocking tone. “Do I not deserve your respect anymore? Am I that small in your eyes?” Debby did say it mocking them but she was actually upset. Back in Nigeria, when someone superior than you comes in, you are supposed to respect the person. They were just standing like log of wood staring at each other.

Immediately, Minister Iwi and Oliver and Advisor Williams bowed in respect. Debby nodded and sat comfortably on a couch nearby.

“You know, the press is waiting for you to make your statement. If you keep hiding here, it gives the people reason to believe you’re guilty.” Debby spoke up looking at the Ministers. The evidences don’t point to Williams so he really has no issue for now.

“So you believe we’re not guilty?” Minister Oliver said looking up thinking there was hope for him. After all, if he could make the Queen believe they’re not guilty, they can be safe. He knows he’s guilty but he wasn’t aware of how the press got the evidences and how there weren’t evidences against Advisor Williams. He did know that somehow Advisor Williams has washed his hands clean and left them the mess to clean up. His mistake was trusting Advisor Williams. He thinks maybe Advisor Williams probably released the evidences to the press to end his career. Minister Oliver started thinking of ways to deal with Advisor Williams if he’s able to get out of it.

“Oh I know you’re guilty.” Debby smiled and stood. She would really be a fool if she believed they were innocent.

“I came here for four purposes. The first purpose I will not tell you but I have already achieved it.” It was quite obvious; there wasn’t a need for her to be all dolled up neither was there need for so many Security Agents.

She was showing off and sending a message to them that she still has power over them and that she’s the Queen and that she can deal with them. She’s also daring them to make a move. No one dared to comment on it. Advisor Williams could only keep his anger in his heart and smile. After all, his plan was working perfectly.

“The second purpose is to organize a press conference with all of you explaining everything to the press. The third purpose is to tell Advisor Williams to deliver this message to Miss Gina Williams. I am officially suing her for blasphemy. I could easily deal with this but what’s the fun in that? You’ll hear from my lawyer later.” A mischievous look flashed on Debby’s face and a surprised look flashed on Advisor Williams face. He really wanted to ask the reason but decided against it, he wasn’t aware of what Gina said on the news. It wasn’t part of their plan.

“And now the last purpose can only be fulfilled during the press conference. Therefore” Debby turned to Minister Iwi. Debby didn’t need to finish her statement. Iwi understood and made a phone call with his eyes twitching; he knew that after the press, his career would be over; all his hard work down the drain.
