After a face surgery, I revenge on my Ex-husband

Forcefully, I got up from the bed and transitioned into one of the dresses Lilac got for me, “You look stunning,” Lilac said.

“I know I do. Thank you, you also are stunning,” I complimented her. I looked at myself in the mirror and wondered how she got to know my perfect body size because the clothes accentuated my curves massively.

“I’m done. Let’s go,” I said. “Go where? Huh? Not with this kind of hair on your head. You can’t follow me with this, now sit your ass down and let me style it a bit,” I rolled my eyes in tiredness and she got up and hurried to her room and brought some hair products for my hair.

A few minutes later, she was done and we both left for the party. As we arrived at the party which j expected to be a wild one, it turned out it was a grand style party with orchestra and classical music. The chandelier and dark room filled with people sipping and talking lowly shocked me.

I leaned close to Lilac as we walked, ” Didn’t you say I was going to shake my body off today? Seemed like they were going to be having a ball dance here. Girl, I could even sleep here!’ I whispered into Lilac’s ear.

“Hey .. this is just the beginning. This is how their party starts first. You know not all the visitors have arrived.” She said and chuckled as we grabbed our sit.

As we sat there, people came in and out and in thirty minutes they turned on the full light and everywhere was illuminated. Taking a sip of the wine placed before us, I heard someone whisper in my ear, “Please can I have your attention for a while?” I looked up at the person.

A male voice, and a male face, “No, I don’t think you can.” I replied and Lilac exchanged glances with me as I nodded. “I’m sorry,” the man said and moved away, “You should,” I crossed my legs and Lilac leaned closer to my ear, ” What did he say?”

“He wanted to have my attention, like man .. do I look like..” I stopped talking abruptly when the music chose to stop at that moment and everyone turned to look at me.

The stares were intense and the look of jealousy coming from the ladies and the look of amazement from the men. I stood up abruptly and went out of the hall, Lilac followed me behind and grabbed me when we got out.

“Why did you just go out? That way?” She asked holding my hands. “Those people in there could kill with their looks. It feels like I am an alien,” I retorted hitting my forehead aggressively.

“No honey.. don’t feel that way.”

“You look so pretty like the sun, I could watch forever while you shine,” a man said walking closer to me and Lilac. My belly fluttered.

“What? Jayden what about your girlfriend! I feel so sad for her!”. At that moment, I was confused. “She deserves the accolade, if she’s your friend. Lilac you have such a beautiful and charming friend, and don’t need to tell you that I could even break up with her just to have you.”

“Oh, poor man. Shame on you,” I mocked, “Your girlfriend must be so lucky to have you.” I added.

A female voice rang from behind, “You mean… that this is what you can do? Jayden? We’ve been dating for two years now and you barely even compliment me anymore.” The voice sober and shrill, I already started feeling pity for her.

And in the first place, why would you be dating someone for up to two years? I thought. This is just one of the challenges we ladies face. Men will always remain stupid and unchanging.

“Kayla, don’t take it too personally and besides I don’t even mean it,” He defended and I sighed. “Oh, you didn’t mean it?” I let out a laugh. Kayla ran back inside the hall and Jayden followed her behind, “See… we’ve just broken someone’s two-year relationship,” I said, letting out a chuckle.

“The power of being beautiful not just being beautiful but extraordinarily beautiful… you need to use this beauty of yours effectively. Now come let’s get back inside.” She dragged me in and the music stopped abruptly.

“Hi everyone. Can I have your attention please?” Kayla said on stage and the spotlight was placed on her, the place became quiet and Jayden rushed up to get the microphone from her, “Jayden don’t come close to me, don’t you dare,” everyone started murmuring and Jayden stopped, and covered his face for a second.

He proceeded to take a leave, ” Don’t go Jayden. This is a shout-out for you.” Everyone started saying “Awwn, this is so cute. I’m confused here, what is she about to cook?”

“I want to use this opportunity to thank my boyfriend here for everything he has been doing, he is such a sweet boy even though he can be annoying sometimes. I also want to use this moment to apologize to every one of you who came here too because this party Is not going to be held anymore. I am breaking up with Jayden here and now,”

At that point, people already started gasping and they turned their faces to Jayden, with questioning looks, one of the ladies behind me said in a low tone, “Girl power! Whoa, I love that. Give this mean what is deserved of them”.

She stopped once everyone started mumuring and when the noise died down she continued, “Something crazy happened this night. to give you guys what you could put out in the blog and news, While I was outside in the corner I saw my boyfriend shamelessly tell a woman how beautiful she is. That lady sitted right there,” She pointed at me.

Everyone began to whisper, “Oh I know that she is beautiful but I am supposed to be the most beautiful to him isn’t it?” Her voice cracked up and a drop of tear rolled down her eyes while she wiped it off.

“Yes you are” Some ladies chorused and the men mumbled, ” This is way more chaotic Lilac,” I inched closer and whispered in Lilac’s ear,” I feel like disappearing from this place, and at the same time it felt satisfying to watch her do that.

“She’s the real queen man,” Lilac said and wiped a tear from her eyes too. I supported, ” Yes she is”.

“I’m done here everyone, I love you all, I love you Jayden, or rather the memories which were living a lie,” She dropped the microphone and stepped down from the stage. As she walked calmly, I felt goosebumps all over my body as she walked away. First, it began with a clap and then it erupted into thunderous applause from the audience.

The drone which was used to capture the moment fixed my face and it showed on the screen. I tapped on Lilac’s lap, ” We need to leave this place with immediate effect.” I said and she picked up her bag too and followed.

People still sat down, I think they were still waiting for Jayden to come and clear the air. “What just happened in there? You should have just let me sleep in the house. Come here let me go and talk to that my friend, I feel so sad for her.” Lilac said and increased her step to catch up with Kayla while I followed.

We caught up with her, “I’m sorry for what happened there,..” Lilac apologized, taking her by her hands. “No, it’s okay… I already saw a lot of red flags which I pushed away because of the thing called love,” Kayla said with a smile on her face.

She brought her palms towards me and shook my hands, “Thank you for making me stop being a fool. This was the perfect opportunity I could get,” she pressed my hands softly and smiled.

I said nothing but Surprisingly pulled her in for a hug.

You know this thing called love, if we take away the feelings there’s nothing special about the person we are dating. Nothing special at all.

“I’ll talk to you later Lilac,” She waved at Lilac and went away. ” She must be really hurt.” I let out and Kayla added, ” She used to go really Gaga for this Jayden guy. Come the night is not over. ” Lilac dragged my hands.

“Let’s get to business. The goal was to dance so if there’s no dancing here, there’s going to be one elsewhere,” Lilac giggled as she spoke.

I followed her like a child, she booked a ride and we went to another night party. While at the party my belly decided to disturb me. “Lilac, we have to go. I don’t feel comfortable and I feel dizzy,” I said to Lilac who was busy dancing.

We left the party that night and we got home, ” Thank goodness. I’m home finally. Man, what was that? I have never seen such a thing like that in my entire life,” I exclaimed.

“That was tragic comic,” Lilac added.

“I don’t think I’ll be going on such occasions with you anymore or at all,” I pulled out my shoe and fell like a log on the bed in Lilac’s room.

As we got home, the stomach ache seized to disturb me. “Let’s see. There are many more. I have rich friends and I get invited every damn time,” Lilac said.Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

We chatted a bit for the rest of the night and I fell asleep in her room only to wake up to a tap from her. “Wake up Ava, you really need to see this. Get up… please don’t let this slide.”

Anger burned in me slightly, I had been woken up from bed except I told someone to do that for me. Without waiting she pulled me up from the bed as she saw how sluggish I was to stand up from the bed.

The sleep disappeared from my eyes immediately when I saw what was being shown on the TV for the city news. “Damn.. this is wild,” I exclaimed as I saw my face on the TV. They cut the part of where I sat with Lilac and then they showed the Kayla part where she was talking about breaking up.

“What channel is this?” I asked. “Let me check,” Lilac picked up the remote. “I don’t like this at all,” I mumbled and sank down on the floor. All I wanted was to live a low-key life and get myself together.

As we stood there, there came a knock on the door and we opened it. “Hello, I’m Irene,” the thirty-five-year-old lady said with a wide smile on her face.

“Who are you and what do you want?” Lilac asked and gestured for her to come in. ” I am the assistant to the CEO of Hovert modeling agency,” She said.

“So why are you here?” I asked. ” I got to find out about you from Kayla, you know what happened yesterday and it’s all over the news and the internet. Your face is everywhere and people are talking. Without beating around the bush, I bring to you a business proposal, you model for us and sign this contract worth nine hundred thousand dollars per month.”

Since I just moved to the UK, I didn’t really know which modeling agency was the best and besides, that was never on my agenda.

Lilac exchanged glances at me as she heard the amount, ” We can sign it right away if you don’t mind,” She said bringing out a file from her bag.

“Wait… I don’t model and I am not interested in the first place. Thank you for your interest but I’m sorry to fail you, I can’t sign the deal.”

Lilac looked at me, he eyes widened, I knew she was already screaming at me in her head.

“Here, take this card in case you have a change of mind. We will double the pay,”
