Cedric laughed as he saw the reaction on the followers' faces. It was clear that they would turn on Elaine and Cedric was prepared for this. Earlier that day he had arranged for some important people to be at the coffee shop. Some were bloggers, others news reporters, there were also several socialites that didn't like Elaine whom Cedric had invited over.
All they knew was that the Reyes Heir had promised them a show if they came to that coffee shop. Of course none of them were disappointed when the truth about Elain Moira finally came out. From the moment Adrianna came in with the sisters the bystanders knew that Elaine was done for. Also this meant that Adrianna was not as simple as they had intially thought, even mistresses woudln't be able to get their man's sister and her friends to back her up. So what really was the power behind Adrianna?
As they watched Elaine's supporters turn on her Ian handed Cedric a tablet to show him how social media was reacting, and it was exploding. The people he had invited to the coffeeshop wasted no time in posting about the incident, the fact that Elaine Moyra had pretended to be the Reyes Heir's wife and how she was embarrassed by Adrianna and Ayanna was the most talked about news online, the whole scene hadn't even ended at this point yet.
"You bi*tch!" Elaine Moyra shouted as she tried to slap Adrianna. Her had was quickly stopped by one of the young men who were initially hanging around her to get her favor.
"How dare you hit a pregnant woman!" The young man shouted as he pushed Elaine to the ground.
For some reason Cedric felt jealous that another man was defending his wife, he wanted to be the only one that could defend her.
"Sir, one of the reporters sent a message, can they release who had invited them over to the coffee shop?" Ian asked as Cedric kept his eyes glued on the events that continued to unfold.
"Make them wait till tomorrow. I want people talking about this for a long time. People should remember, if they pretend to be someone else and use my name to their advantage they will pay the price. Especially if it takes away from the people that matter." Cedric said with a serious voice.
"Yes, sir." Ian said as he responded to the barrage of messages he received from the bystanders. He even informed those who had asked. He told them that the Reyes Heir wanted everyone to know that they weren't to be messed with.
"Am I still needed Madams?" Camellia asked Ayanna and Adrianna.
"You can go back." Ayanna said with a nod. She looked at the table and grinned at her brother.
"I'm sure Miss Ayanna was surprised to see you here." Ian said as they watched people who had followed Elaine scold her and shout at her.
"We should go ahead. The show is over. Have the driver pick us up." Cedric didn't answer Ian's question as he didn't know if Ayanna had any idea that he was aware of their plans from the very start.
When they got in the car Cedric's phone began to ring, when he checked it was Ayanna. She must have noticed that he had left the coffee shop already and planned to speak to him.
"Don't you have better things to do?" Cedric asked Ayanna.
"We need a ride back to R tower." Ayanna said.
"Why not take Adrianna's car?" Cedric was already suspicious about Ayanna's intentions.
"We sent Mia back to Island's Inc. to do something." Ayanna told her older brother.
"Fine." Cedric knew better than to argue with his sister who was backed by his wife. "Ian will meet you at the back." Cedric said as he dropped the call.
Since they wouldn't all fit in the car Cedric let his driver ride with the security team while Ian would drive them.
Adrianna and Ayanna soon arrived with Ian and they quickly slid into the car.
"Did anyone follow you?" Cedric asked as his wife and sister made themselves comfortable.
"Nope. We got out safe. Everyone was busy looking at that b**ch to notice us." Ayanna said with a laugh.
Cedric nodded then took a risk. He placed his arm around Adrianna's waist and pulled her to him. To his surprise she didn't seem mad at him at all about the incident and she leaned on his chest.
"You were amazing." Cedric whispered into her ear.
"You still cheated." Adrianna answered back.
"I didn't, you still did everything. I just made sure that the right people were there to witness it." Cedric said with a grin.
"You knew all along?" Adrianna asked.
"From the very start. I even knew she stole partnerships from you." Cedric said proudly.
"Cedric, can I invite the others over for dinner tonight?" Ayanna suddenly asked.
"Sure. Just inform the maids what to prepare." Cedric told Ayanna.
Adrianna had nothing left to do for the day so after dropping Ayanna off at R Tower, Cedric brought Adrianna home to Mountain View. Since he still had some documents to finish, Cedric stayed at the ground floor office while Ian and Camilla worked as well.
Ian was going through some documents when something caught his attention. He gathered everything and went up to Cedric.
"Sir, look at this." Ian said as he showed Cedric some charts. "The value of our shares are constantly dropping, not only that but our sales and profits from almost all companies are following the same trend. The only one that is growing is Mor Co."
"Send me all of these, I'll show it to my dad when he gets home." Cedric said as he took a closer look at the numbers.
The rest of the day flew by quickly, before Cedric knew it a maid informed him that his father had arrived home. Cedric nodded and met his father by the stairs.
"Dad, Ian found something. Do you still have some energy to talk about work?" Cedric asked. He knew that his dad was incredibly busy managing the Reyes Group even if Ayanna already helped out with Elisia Malls and he handled Mor Co.
"Sure. Let's go to your office." Emilio Reyes said as he started walking towards that direction.
