Ivy

MANILLA, PHILIPPINES

"Emma!"

"Emma!!"

"Emma!!"

"Go Emma!"

That's the name ranting worldwide.

"Perfect!" Kathy her makeup artist shouted enthusiastically when she was done dancing.

Emma walked towards the dressing room and tiredly sat in front of a vanity mirror. Kathy approached her to put some retouch ¾ powder here, lipstick there.

"Oh my gosh! You're really a definition of perfection, Emma. The audience was screaming your name. You're becoming more popular" She ranted.

"Gorgeous, sexy, rich and other traits you possess girl. Mehn! You're the main deal" Kathy said at once and Emma only rolled her eyes.

Almost immediately, a knock came on the door

"Just come in !" She yelled. The door opened and to her greatest surprised, it was ivy her maid.

Ivy was not just her maid but her backup dancer.

She grunted. Heavens knows how much she hated Ivy.

"I've come to clean your room ma'am" Ivy said shaking with her head bowed.

"Move closer" She said calmly and Ivy quickly did.

"Do you know you're speaking to a star?. You're expected to kneel when talking to me loser" She growls. "I'm sorry ma'am" Ivy said and immediately went on her knees.

"Must you be taught everything?. Don't feel so important because you're my backup dancer. You're also my maidq. Do you know millions of people are dying to be in the position you're in?. Are you aware many of them are ready to do anything just to lick the ground i walked on not alone touching me or taking a snap with me. You're just so lucky seeing me closely which anyone out there will yield for yet you got the nerves to disrespect me you thing" She shouted angrily. She grabbed the bottle of water on the table and poured it on Ivy's hair.

"This is just a tip of what i can do if you dares disrespect me again. Have i made myself clear?" She yelled and Ivy nodded in fright.

"Words fool" She slapped Ivy on her cheek.

"Yes ma'am"Ivy responded in shaking voice.

"Good" She mumbled and raised her head to see the artist staring.

"When you're done staring, you can as well walked out" She screamed bringing them back.

LATER IN THE EVENING

Ivy came back to the Mansion. It's been some days she has been away from the Taylor Family. Yeah! that's the name of the Billionaire Family.

Asher Alessandro Taylor is a famous weathy billionaire CEO. Owner of Asher companies enterprises. Apart from that, he's also running a company named A's construction corporation. A leading engineering and infrastructure firm in Philippines.

He's arrogant, heartless and pompous.

He's the head of the Taylor family ( a large group of people known for their power and superiority). The Taylor Family comprises of Asher brothers, their wives, his sister and then his mother. So you see, the family is so large and everyone in Philippines feared them because of their power, superiority and wealth.

Asher who's just 30 years of age runs the affairs of the Taylor family. Each and every member of the family respect and feared him. Asher is a single dad who lost his wife after birthing him a son. It's been four years he lost his wife yet he couldn't move on.

He become more ruthless and heartless.

Ivy lowered her head as she walked, her bag around her neck and her hands lost in her trouser pockets. She was assisting her sister Mica who was a maid at the Taylor family mansion and she's just coming back from the studio. She left some days ago to be alone in the studio in order to practice for the upcoming show.

She needs to practice hard since she was Emma back up.

Her steps were fast and smart and finally, She got inside the mansion. Her cheek still hot like hell due to the slap Emma gave her.

As she got close to the mansion, she could sight it, the inner beauty of the mansion and the maids who were doing one thing or the other

"Ivy you're back!" She heard a husky voice from behind and stopped moving immediately.

She turned and saw her sister Mica.

"Yes i am" she answered. "Oh... You just left without telling me. Where have you been" She asked.

"Is that even a question" she laughed out.

"You know i must be at the studio practicing my new dancing moves" she said and Mica smile.

"Hope that crazy Emma didn't hurt you again" She asked. Ivy didn't reply but rather bite on her lip. Mica sighed.

"I guess she did. How long will you allow her to hurt you?" She asked.

"C'mon Mica, Not as if i enjoyed her torturing me but if i wanna get to that top, i need to be tolerance. I wanna become famous like her so i can Carter for you and you wouldn't have to work anymore" she said.

"It's fine, Common let me help you with this" She said and took the bag from her.

TAYLOR MANSION

Docorative lights and illuminants lit up the extravagant Taylor family Mansion.

Tonight was the remembrance of Lady Helena. Late wife of Asher Alessandro Taylor.

Amy entered the spacious sitting room holding a cup of tea. She's Asher only sister.

"When Helena was still alive, she loves the Chinese tea" She said taking a sip.

"Old pu'er worth half a million dollars wad also presented to her by Asher himself on their anniversary" Derrick said. He was Asher junior brother.

"That's not all, her status carved in the middle of her compound is worth seven hundred dollars" Rex, the second brother of Asher said.

Grandma Claire who was already in her 70's entered.

"C'mon you all. You shouldn't be gossiping about. It's Helena remembrance. You should make sure everything is ready" She said and Amy rolled her eyes.

"We're your wives?" She pointed at Derrick and Rex.

"We're here mother" Lyra and Lauren said flashing smiles at them.

Lyra is actually Derrick wife and Lauren, Rex wife.

"I can see you two are ready" she smile gleefully.

Asher entered and everyone's face became emotionless. His expression was as cold as always. He dipped his hands into his inner pocket.

Derrick face brightened abit seeing him.

"Goodness you're here Lord Asher, could you please lend me a million dollars, please my wife need a change of jewelries" He said.

Asher was amazed that he was overly atrocious and bold.

"Are you here to celebrate my late wife remembrance or borrow money"

A cold baritone voice spoke. A voice that send shivers down everyone's spin.

Grandmother Claire hurried forward.

"Asher, Derrick isn't thinking straight. Pls forgive him" she then pulled him aside frantically.

Asher sneered in disdain and moved to Amy. She gulped down as Asher hand travelled to the Chinese tea in her hand.

"Let me have that" he said coldly.

"But......

Ashwr hurled the teacup in her hand to the floor. The entire family gaped in extreme shock.

"This tea you sip is worth half a million" He said and turned to face them all.

"Perhaps, you all intentions is to waste my money" he said and they all gulped down nervously.

"But Helena do drink this same tea" Lyra snorted loudly. A dark stormy cloud instantly hovered beneath his eyes.

Lyra immediately shrieked in fright as she flinched onto her husband.

"It's my house! I have the right to tell you all what to do and undo. No one trespass against me and if you aren't okay with it, then leave and feed yourself!" He growled with an indignant face.

Grandmother Claire was already wearing a slightly awkward expression on her face.

"That's enough Asher!"Grandmother said.

"Everyone leave" She added.

Everyone heaved a sigh of dismay and regret.

"Father" Little blind Karen entered as he was been assist by Ivy.

Everyone stopped and face the blind little heir.
