Chapter 39 - WHAT'S ABOUT THE RUTHERFORD'S??



"It\'s been so nice to finally talk to you."

Valeria said, sipping on her teacup, smiling gratefully at her long time friend, Doctor Massey.

"I have been trying to contact you too but duty just gets in between, you know."

Massey spoke out, to which Valeria nodded her head. It was no mystery how busy a doctor could get.

"I hope Kian\'s girlfriend is doing well. "

Massey continued talking in between drinking the tea from the china cup, unknowingly shocking Valeria altogether.

\' Kian\'s girlfriend?\'

Did he start seeing someone and had not told her about it yet??

But that was unlikely for Kian would tell her everything.

"My my you should have seen the condition I saw her. Poor child, her face was full of cuts and bruises, lying unconscious on the bed only a day or two after Rutherford\'s death. "

Valeria did not make any attempts to stop Massey in between to ask her until she heard the name of the Rutherford.

What did the death of Rutherfords have to do with the girl?

"What\'s about the Rutherford\'s?"

She asked, could not be able to resist asking. Massey halted in her action.

"Her parents...the Rutherfords death. It was right after that Kian told me he found her. Someone must have tried to kidnap the poor soul. "

Massey replied to Valeria\'s question with a pitty face blowing Valeria\'s mind in the process.

\'Kian was dating the daughter of the Rutherford\'s??\'

How on earth did he even meet her in the first place??

What on earth was even happening??

She thought to herself. She placed her cup and plate on the table nearby and leaned forward to confirm the situation or if Massey was just blurting things out of a busy day.

"You saw Kian with Tinsley Rutherford to be exact?"

"Oh, why do you ask?"

"Just answer the question, Massey."

Valeria pressed getting annoyed at her friend for being irritating for the time being.

"Of course I did. She was on his bed as I attended to her. He himself asked me to keep it from you and that he would tell you by himself. That is why I have been avoiding our reunion for I can\'t keep things out from you...I know by now he did tell you..."

Massey finished and continued to drink the leftover tea. While Valeria could not understand what was going on.

Added to that Kian tried to keep this news away from her when he never hid anything from his aunt.

"Although I do not comprehend why are you acting as if you heard it all for the first time."

Massey commented, placing the cup on the table along with the table, drawing Valeria\'s attention back to her.

"Because I never knew until now."

"So that means Kian did not..."

"...no he did not tell me yet."

Valeria completed for Massey, making the latter self-conscious as she just spilt something she was meant to kept secret until Kian told Valeria himself.

"Damn...Kian\'s going to go mad at me now for spilling the news to you before he did...my talkative mouth.."

Massey cursed, getting agitated. People who knew her truly said why she was not to be trusted with one\'s secret.

"Do not worry about that. I will not tell Kian you told me."

Valeria comforted her troubled friend, patting the back of Massey\'s right palm on the table.

" Thanks to God for acting as my guardian angel."

Massey smiled nervously.

"How do you know that she is his girlfriend though?"

"What do you mean?"

Massey implored, narrowing her eyes at Valeria, who was staring back at her.

She could be someone Kian had bought home to save her life may be and not be his girlfriend. Valeria thought.

"Maybe Kian bought her from her kidnapers saving her life as you said her condition was bad."

"But no man would look at a woman the way Kian looked at her if he was not in love already. The way he cared about her...his complexion said it all.

I mean he would not make her sleep on his bed if she was not special to him or cared deeply about her. "

Massey concluded with a deep pause in between. And that was all Valeria needed to know before she stood up. Massey did too.

"What is wrong Valeria?"

She did not reply right away as thousands of thoughts started flooding her mind.

Her nephew was in love?? In love with Rutherford\'s daughter???

"Is something wrong about all this??"

Massey walked up to her, putting a hand on Valeria\'s shoulder trying to gain her attention.

"No..no. Everything is fine...I m just a bit taken aback by the news... it\'s a lot to take in."

Massey nodded at Valeria who seemed way tensed that someone should ought to be in matters like that, instead she could have been happy knowing her nephew had finally met someone he was interested in.

"I m afraid I have to cut our reunion short, Massey. I..uh..m reminded of an important appointment that needs my immediate attention so thank you for your time..."

Valeria made up an excuse to head the road, along with her thoughts on the matter.

"It\'s alright, Valeria. We will have brunch next time. You go now before you lose that appointment. "

Massey smiled. Both the older woman shared a hug before one of them headed out of the private restaurant.

Valeria waited by the lobby as her driver drove the car to the front. She made a call in Kian\'s office to ask him to drop by her mansion in the evening.

His secretary gave her a positive response although Kian was unavailable to take the call for he was attending another meeting.

She did hear the news of him calling off on that deal with the Herrington and she could only wonder what was even going on in the mind of that lad, dropping important deals, hiding things from her.

"Drive to Wilson\'s Condo."

She ordered the driver once she sat inside the Mercedes, ready to go.
