Your Turn to Chase Me, Reborn For Revenge

They had both got up and dressed up in their best outfits and came to Walker Interiors with the idea that they would get Lucy a job in Walker Interiors. They didn't think it would be hard as April had passed the interview process. What they had both forgotten was that Lucy's skills were lacking whereas April had the insight and the talent that Lucy did not possess.

The job wasn't Lucy's only goal; she had hoped to find a wealthy husband and possibly meet Casey Walker himself. Lucy had heard that he often was hands on with projects and he had worked alongside his staff in each department. She wouldn't even mind if she caught the interest of his second in command Micheal. Though she wouldn't marry someone like Micheal, only a CEO was worthy of her time and attention. She wanted only the best.

When they had arrived at Walker Interiors they had been blocked by a young girl that worked in reception, they were both annoyed by this. The reception wouldn't let them pass unless April came down to escort them. Their hope was to use April's name to gain access to the building and go straight to the CEO's office for an interview.

How hard could it be, thought Lucy.. But the reception staff had stopped them from ruining their plan already.

Lucy had thrown a strop, she didn't care as the staff arriving to start work judged her on their way in. They cringing at the display and wondered what the reason for the outburst was. Many hoped that they were not needing any interior design work as they didnt want to work with such a dramatic pair.

Lucy lost herself as she cursed at the young girl behind the reception desk. She?wanted to see April gloating about her job, she only said her name to get past the security and reception staff.

As her mother tried to calm her down and stop her from creating a spectacle but Lucy couldn't help herself and her mother's words only fueled her anger. Why did April get everything in life and she had nothing?

She suddenly heard the click, clack of heels and she spun around. She saw April approaching and she was in shock. April looked confident and glowing like sunlight surrounded her making her stand out. Lucy had never seen April look so stunning, this only made her more envious.

Lucy held the bottom of her dress, scrunching the material.

Seeing her daughter lose herself to jealousy she whispered in her ear and stood in front of Lucy. Protecting her and giving her a chance to compose herself.

"Hello daughter, how have you been?" Rachel came forward with open arms hoping to convince April to help Lucy secure a job.

"Rachel hello and I'm sorry but you're mistaken your daughter is the one that is creating a scene behind you. My mother passed away a long time ago so I'm sure that I am not your daughter."

After being humiliated by April Rachel sneered at her, she had seen glimpses of this new April but after today she realised that the April she could manipulate was long gone. She regained her smile and responded, "April don't be like that didnt I raise you and look after you all these years? You are my dear daughter."

April laughed and folded her arms as she responded, "If you think about it I looked after you and your daughter, I filled the mother role out of the two of us. I cooked, I cleaned, I did your washing and I even helped Lucy with all her school work. So when you think about it I raised you both."

Rachel's jaw dropped and she was completely blindsided by April's retaliation.

Lucy, who had calmed herself, lost it once again hearing the way April had spoken to her mum, "How dare you, you little orphan. Without my mother, you would have nothing, be nothing. Your father would have wasted away after your pathetic mother died. You should be lucky that my mother…"

Rachel's heart stopped when she heard Lucy start to say too much. She covered her mouth and stood back from April, "We just came to see your office. Would you mind showing us around? Just a quick tour."

April knew that these two had other intentions so she glanced at the girl behind the reception desk.

The girl behind reception was smart and had seen many scenes like this before. She thought the mother daughter pair were very brazen family members who tried to take advantage of April. Sympathizing with her she spoke up," The two ladies arrived and used your name to bypass security then they claimed they had an appointment that you had arranged between them and Mr Casey Walker. I called you because I know that you are friendly with the CEO but you don't seem like a girl that would take advantage of your friendship." f𝔯𝒆𝚎𝚠𝑒𝚋𝓃૦νℯƖ.co𝘮

April smiled and nodded understanding the situation further. The receptionist had grasped what may have been happening and rightfully had rung her, "Thank you…"

The receptionist beamed, "Oh Shauneen."

"Thank you Shauneen for contacting me. You're right I wouldn't use my friendship with Micheal or Casey to give anyone a foot up the ladder." After speaking to Shauneen she then turned to Rachel and Lucy.

"How dare you!" Lucy had turned to Shauneen and shouted, she was infuriated at the lack of respect and assumptions made. Just as she was about to continue her mother held her arm and shook her head.

April quirked an eyebrow and responded,'' Lucy, Rachel I am working. If you want to see me I will call my fathers house. If you are here for a tour then I am sorry I am working. Have some respect for yourselves and stop this scene you're both making and go shopping or go home."

Rachel was lost for words, April had gotten the better of both of them. They hadn't even gotten past the lobby of Walker Interiors. Rachel looked April up and down as if seeing her for the first time. She didn't know who she was dealing with now.

Kathleen and April were similar and she was able to manipulate them both but this new strong and confident April in front of her wouldn't budge. She also had been very articulate in her retaliation.
