Not your typical baby mama - Chapter 285 Life After The Scandal
“Lorraine, for all the years I’ve known you, all I ever wanted was for you to be happy. You were forced to grow up too quickly and be a mom and dad for your brother. And now because of her, the one time you find someone who genuinely aroused your interest, you can’t even enjoy that.”
Lorraine’s face was stained with the tears she failed to hold back hearing her friend’s concern. She wiped them with the back of her hand as she chuckled in self-pity. “Well, that’s life.”
Savannah pulled her in for a hug and patted her back in comfort. Lorraine was frustrated with life and herself for wanting something she shouldn’t, no, wouldn’t have because of her shitty situation.
Despite allowing him to offer her protection, she still did not want to get him mixed up in her situation. It would be wrong of her to expose that man to them. She’s been dealing with them all these years, why should that change now? Gosh, she shouldn’t even like him.
“Girls!” Savannah’s mom shouted.
“Shoot! I forgot to tell you lunch was ready in ten”, she said as they broke the embrace and gave her glaring friend a sheepish smile.
“Five more minutes!” Savannah shouted whilst still glaring at Lorraine. “I was baking my face!”
The woman was quiet for some seconds, trying to make sense of what her daughter just said. “Okay?”
Savannah rushed back to the mirror to finish up her work. Lorraine’s face was dry of tears but her eyes still showed. “Is there anything else happening besides the checkup?”
“Yeah, I’m also meeting my shrink today and I hear he’s a sexy piece of meat.” She turned her face side to side, admiring how good she looked.
“Savvy?”
“What? I’m traumatized soul. I need all the love I can get”, she shrugged then threw her a playful wink.
Lorraine sighed. She may say it so casually but she knew how broken she really was inside. She smiled it off before the two went to have lunch.

After their meal, she accompanied the mother and daughter pair to the hospital. She stayed with them until it was time for her work.
The airport was hectic with the security upgraded. Some people were growing annoyed and impatient with the thorough search the officers wear undertaking.
They did not want to miss anything that could compromise the authorities’ hard work concerning the case that the city was following: Greco and it’s C.E.O Gwen Cancino.
“For fuck’s sake! You’ve been going on about this for hours now! Some of us have a plane to catch!” A man roared.
“Sir, please mind your tone. And this is only standard procedure!” An officer answered.
“You can’t punish the rest of us because of what some dumbfuck did! I need to get on that plane! Out of my way!” He started shoving the people ahead of him.
“Hey!” Some people groaned from the commotion he was causing.
“Sir, we will not hesitate to arrest you-”
“On what grounds! If I miss that flight, it will be you I will be suing! Out of my way! Move!” He kept on pushing when he felt someone tapping him on the shoulder. “What?” He stopped moving to look at the person and the commotion stopped.

“Sir, I can assure that that plane won’t leave this airport without it’s passengers. You know the situation we’re facing and if you didn’t want to face these delays, you should’ve booked an early flight.”
“You-”
“I’m not done speaking. Everyone here had their own busy schedules and we’re all trying to do our jobs. So I’ll kindly ask for your cooperation, if you’re clean, you’ll be on your way. But since you’re in such a hurry, how about I help you instead?”
“Finally! Someone who gets it!” He sneered at the officer who he had quarrelled with early on. He looked back at the new officer and she wasn’t too bad to look at. He knew that uniform was not doing justice to her beauty and natural curves. “What’s your name sweetheart?”
She smiled as she led him aside from the cue. He was too focused on her he didn’t see the pitiful look everyone gave him. “First name is Lorraine, last name May. Officer May.”
He froze as she led him by hand. He had heard about people who hid the illegal stuff in their bodies by ingesting them but they never escape her and she always collected the goods whether they were inside or outside their bodies. Just thinking about what he kept in his a**hole….

“Shit.” He released himself from her grip and made for a run. The man had barely taken a step when his face made a hard contact with the ground after he took a hard kick go his shin. “Argh!”
“It’s people like you that make me enjoy my job”, Lorraine snarled as she arrested him.
Anyone else who had complaints knew to shut up. The Feds were working their hardest on the Greco case to avoid any loose ends, all they could was cooperate.
They knew this from keeping up with the ongoing trial. It was not broadcasted on television to protect the victims but those involved in the case were free to make comments when interviewers by the media who waited outside the court. Besides that, there was another thing that people were keeping up with.
“It’s such a relief to see him out and about going on about his life after that dreadful scandal”, an E! News female anchor commented at a picture of Xavier displayed on screen.
“Yes, and I would like to say, no, I think the experience changed him”, a female anchor commented. “He has not been spotted with any woman.”
“I think so too. You know, such experiences make you evaluate certain aspects about your life. But we can all agree that Xavier deserves a woman or man… to love him right”, a male anchor commented making the two ladies guffaw at his shamelessness. “So whilst we’re still on the topic”, he looked directly at the camera with a flirtitious smile. “Xavier, call me.”
Nicole groaned as she turned off the TV with the remote. She rested her head at the back of her sofa and blew out an exhausted breath.
Her apartment strongly represented how shitty her life had been after the scandal. No company wanted to hire her since Xavier was no longer there to support her now expensive life style and she didn’t want to change that.
At the end of the year, she has to come up with a new amount for the lease of her apartment if she wanted to stay. She was months away but still, just thinking about it stressed her out. And she missed the man, the way he spoiled her, the way he worshipped her body when he-
Ding! Dong!
Snapping out her thoughts, she whipped her head to the door. No one visuties her so it could be one person. She forced herself up and walked towards the door.
“Your pizza”, the delivery man said as soon as she opened the door.
“One sec”, she said as she walked back into the room.
The young man was surprised by who door he was standing on. He took in her loose short shorts and her crop top as she walked to her room. Could it be her? With one hand, he took out his phone and search for a hidden folder that was encrypted with a password.
After unlocking, voila! There was the screenshot of a picture of Nicole’s naked form pressed against the floor to ceiling glass window whilst being rammed from behind by the ‘Xavier’ impersonator.
The young man had a spy smile growing on his lips as he looked back up at the direction Nicole had disappeared to.
