Chapter 3: CHILDHOOD 2
".....a lot went down but I'm happy with where I am today, I'm a successful woman. My mother was a beautiful woman, blonde hair that got to her waist...which I love twisting with my fingers...green eyes and great figure, she was very beautiful and carried herself with elegance...she was the type of woman you'll see and say be my queen...with the way my mother was, you'll think she was a princess...she looked lovely, how she ended up with my dad, I don't know...well love is blind, I don't pray to fall in love with someone who claims to love me but neglects my children when he sees another woman" I concluded
"That's enough of a background right?" I asked the reporter
"Ma'am, are you sure you don't wanna to keep it simple a bit?" The reporter name Clara asked
"Do you guys want this interview or not? Well shorten it whatever, I'm only doing this as a favour" I replied. My best friend owns a newspaper company...well not only newspaper but television and some other stuff...he asked me since I'm now one of the most popular women in the business world...and he wanted to be the first to get an exclusive interview.

"Who's there?" I called out
"It's me madam, you ordered tea and scones" My secretary, Danielle replied
"Okay come in" I reply
She came in pushing a trolley and put the snacks on the coffee table in between me and the reporter. She bowed her head slightly then left.
.
"S..so...." The reporter stuttered
"So which other question do you have for me?" I asked authoritatively and impatiently
"Okay ma'am so who do you owe your success to?"
"I owe my success to my mother, without the gift she left behind for me...."
"Ma'am which gift?" she reporter cut in. Curious.
I hate it when someone interrupts me "well if you will shut the hell up I'll get to what the fucking gift is" The reporter is now scared kind of " Sorry ma'am" she apologized quickly
" Well the gift was my trust fund. She left me one million dollars in my trust fund. I would've squandered the money but with what stepmom and stepsister did to me then, I wanted to prove them wrong and I wanted my mother to be proud of me wherever she was. I started my own company called CLAUD CORPORATION...which short form is CLAUD CORP... which most of you know about. I made myself useful and look at where I am today" I smirked
"Okay ma'am , what do you think is your most contributing factor to your success?"
"Well, I can't forget that my most contributing factor was the death of my mom and the arrival of my step family. I can't say that if my mom was alive, I won't be here or I'll be here. I believe that no matter how long you prolong it what's meant to be will be."
"How many industry does your company deal in?"
"Well, we deal in hotel and restaurant industry and I've also been investing in other company and such"
"What do you like to do in your spare time, such as hobbies and the rest?"
"I don't have hobbies, oh wait, I love working. I'm a woman and in this dog-eat-dog world, you gotta do what you gotta do"
"You've been invited to parties, some which you attended and some which you didn't, but in those which you did, and no one have never seen you with a man before. And even people have begun to make speculations about you being lesbian, what do you think about that?"
"*laughs loud and hard* I've heard it so many times though, I've always said keep your priorities straight. My number 1 priority is my company"
"Well Miss Corolla Fanners, thank you for your time" Clara stood up and shook my hands and begun to pack her things.
