The Fellogan Stunt
Everyone is aboard the jet.
Kaylah and Archer flew with it to Barbados to pick up their friends. Lorrich couldn't come, Dordrich insisted that he meet his mother in New York.
Loraine sits next to Aziel, she hasn't spoken a word since she came aboard. Kaylah turns towards her from her seat. “Loraine, we couldn't stop it, but there's a horde of journalists and photographers waiting at the airport. I think we owe that to the Dordrich”, she sighs. “I think he wants to use all of this as a marketing stunt for his companies. That idiot!” they grit their teeth.
Loraine looks at her betrothed beside her. “Tell me more about Dordrich. What kind of person is he, how did I come into contact with him?” she asks him. Aziel sighs and begins to rub his forehead. Dordrich is the last thing he wants to talk about right now, but he cannot refuse Loraine's wish. He gives her a brief account of what happened until she found out that she was pregnant in Barbados and didn't inform Dordrich. After he went bankrupt, she returned to New York and told him about their son.
“And you have your own business, Loraine. You are a billionaire yourself. And you also own Danner's businesses, Damian is the manager there. The mall that Kaylah manages is also your property," Aziel let her know. Loraine looks at him in horror. "Really? And I thought I was always dependent on third parties!” she exclaims. Aziel smiles and kisses her hand. “Far from that. We have just bought a house close to the forest, with our expanding family in mind. We wanted to offer the children a lot of space to play”, says Aziel sadly.
“And that's not all,” Andre adds into the conversation. “You have always been a good strategist. Aziel, Kaylah and Damian were first your staff members, they were actually the brains behind your big box office successes. But your business could really grow and make big profits because of your insights as a strategist. And with Archer's undeniable marketing skills, all your projects are a huge success,” he explains. Loraine is shocked by everything her friends are telling her now. She can't believe she achieved so much success in one of the most competitive cities in the world.
She looks at Aziel questioningly, seeking confirmation of Andre's statement. He nods, bends over to her and gives her a long kiss. “I'm so proud of you, Angel”, he whispers to her. She holds his hand firmly. “And are you still a staffer in my company? You said you were an entrepreneur, you run a transport company,” she asks him confused. He tells her how he traded shares on the stock exchange and made several million. But he wanted to stay in her life because she was mentally attached to him and he was madly in love with her. When they broke up in Barbados, he went his own way and started the transport company anyway.
“But the nice thing about your time at Windrug&So was your relationship with Kaylah”, laughs Aziel. “You were at each other's throats all day, she was your secretary. Despite that bickering, you couldn't live without each other, she was your confidante, knew everything about you”. Kaylah laughs heartily at Aziel's words.
"Also mention that she was always sarcastic, looked down on others and was terribly stingy with her money," she sighs dramatically. The friends give each other a knowing look, a burst of laughter ensues in the room. They had heard of the two cold-hot girlfriends before, so they know where this discussion leads to.
Loraine looks at Kaylah sharply, hazy visions begin to occur to her.
“And how did she become director of the mall? Then she wasn't so bad after all," she muses aloud. Aziel smile. “You always had a grumpy temper but had a heart of gold. You could judge Kaylah by her worth. She especially proved herself when the Dordrich affair got out and you nearly went bankrupt. Together with Damian, she took the negative publicity to highlight the company goals and achievements in the live press conferences,” Aziel explains. “She taught all those gossip journalists a lesson. Kaylah has earned her promotion and proven herself over the years.” Admiring eyes are now on the woman, who turns red with pleasure.
“Remember Damian, he was the most promising staff member who could have found a better job elsewhere but remained loyal to you. And you have rewarded that,” Kaylah says emotionally. She breaks free from her chair and grabs Loraine in a bear hug. “I love you so, Loraine,” she whispers. “Welcome back, New York wasn't the same without you”. The women sob into each other's arms.
"That's why you were such a crappy actress when Aziel counted on you not to let me notice you all had met me before," Loraine pesters her. Kaylah stiffens, her eyes widening at Loraine. “Hey, what 's up!" she exclaims. “Why does this sound like the old, withered Loraine? God save us!”
Once again everyone on the plane is bent over with laughter. Shaking his head, Aziel looks at the women. “Some things really never change!”.
The pilot announces that they are about five minutes away from the airport and must prepare for landing. Aziel clears all the glasses from the table and puts them in the dishwasher. Then he fastens Loraine's seatbelt and sits down next to her again. The landing goes well, at the airport they pass the handling. Loraine feels her heart pounding, the moment has arrived when she will see her son. She grabs Aziel's hand and together they walk into the spacious hall.
“Mommy!”
“Princess!”
Upon hearing her son's voice, Loraine rushes to meet him. Dordrich Fellogan has their son in his arms and runs to the woman. As Loraine hugs her son, Fellogan places his hands around the two, creating the image of an intimate family reunion. The cameras go off like crazy, from all angles it is recorded how Loraine, Dordrich and their son welcome each other at the airport.
The seven other people are watching this all happening as if petrified. Now everyone understands why Dordrich insisted that mother and son reunite at the airport. He had his own plans.
Loraine abruptly breaks free from his embrace, but the damage is already done. She takes her son from Dordrich's arms and walks towards Aziel. “Aziel, look how big our son has grown. Isn't he handsome?” she whispers to him with her head on his shoulders as they both look at Lorrich. The little one is clearly pleased with the attention he now has. “Daddy, thank you for bringing mommy back. Now I can come home again,” he says wisely. “Daddy Dordrich doesn't have to get off work early anymore.”
They simultaneously kiss him on his forehead. Then it's Andre's turn to greet. Lorrich had more frequent FaceTime contact with Michelle and Rick, but Andre, like Aziel, was out of reach for a long time. He falls on Andre's neck, the two are best friends. “Thank you, daddy Andre”, he whispers to him and runs back into Loraine's waiting arms...
