Living With A Narcissistic Brother In-law

Black Horse Hotel was a multicultural hotel that integrated the deep Mexican roots, mixing it with the eastern Country M heritage.

During this time that the newly elected Governor was going to have his congratulatory party, it was specially decorated accordingly.

This newly elected Governor was not an old man, but a young man in his early forties. He was a frontrunner in the entertainment industry. Having being an actor himself before moving to politics. It was therefore no surprise that he invited a lot of artistes in the entertainment industry to grace the occasion.

The world was now coming to a place that celebrity influence was great hence anyone who wanted to be recognised needed to be endorsed by such celebrities.

At exactly 8:00PM, the front of the hotel was packed with the arrival of people and reporters situated everywhere, waiting to capture the moment.

A red carpet was purposefully set up for everyone. This was to enable the reporters take the pictures they needed without imposing on the invited guests.

Arriving first was the newly elected Governor with his wife by his side. Governor Charles Swift and his wife Gilda Dewait wore matching checkered outfit from the famous Mona Lisa Collections. Charles wore a handmade customised suit and pants while his wife, Gilda wore a parted check long gown with shiny stones hand fitted into a love shape, which ran from her chest area down to her feet. It was a beautiful dress, designed for her only.

Standing hand in hand, the Governor and his wife were a perfect picture, with a peaceful ambience flowing around them. they were the idea handsome man and beautiful woman power couple.

Charles Swift was from a family of aristocrats while Gilda hailed from the famous Dewait family that specialised in automobiles. They were both from influential families.

The current Prime Minister and his family arrived first among the invited guests. They exchanged pleasantries before the family moved to the red carpet for their photos to be taken.

''Darling, you promised to get me a signed autograph of Mikael Sun'' Gilda said excitedly as she stood next to her husband.

''You never asked for my autograph'' Charles muttered.

''I live with you every day. Why do I need your autograph'' Gilda teased her husband and turned to look at the car that had just arrived. She smiled when she saw Daniel Song getting out of the car.

''That's Daniel Song. He is the CEO of Daniel Group and their subsidiary, Song Pharmaceuticals'' Charles said to his wife.

''I did my homework, okay? The woman getting out is Solace Song, the famous actress and that is their daughter, Mimi Song. I don't have a favourable impression on her, she seems to be trying hard''

''Gilda, we are not here to badmouth people. just smile and be polite'' Charles said, knowing his wife like the back of her palm.

Gilda was someone who was born in an influential family. She grew up, not knowing how to suck up to people or being polite to people she didn't like. Even though, after getting together with Charles, she had learnt to be polite, she still couldn't let go of her arrogant nature. Because of her husband, she had grown interest and has been keeping a low profile and interest in the lives of celebrities. Not missing out on the latest gossip.

Even during the time that the scandal involving Natalie came out, she was on her side. She was on the side of a woman she had never met before. why? because she hated Mimi's arrogance.

Two arrogant people could never be friends!

''Gilda, smile, they are coming'' Charles said as he tangled their hands together.

Gilda smiled when the Song family walked towards them.

Daniel and Solace walked towards the couple with Mimi behind them. Daniel and Solace equally wore matching outfits while Mimi wore a light blue short dress with shiny pearls knitted all over it. It was a beautiful dress and fitted her quite well.

''Congratulations, Governor Charles'' Daniel said as he shook hands with the couple.

''Thank you and welcome to celebrate with me'' Charles said before turning to look at his wife.

''You are welcome, Mr. and Mrs. Song, It is our pleasure to have you and your family joining us'' Gilda said as she smiled and looked at Mimi.

''Thank you, Mrs. Swift. You look so beautiful tonight'' Daniel said and kissed her palm.

''Thank you, Mr. Song''

''Congratulations, Governor Charles and Mrs. Swift'' Mimi said, moving to stand before them, by her parents' side.

''Thank you, Miss Song'' Charles shook Mimi's hand.

''Mrs. Swift is so beautiful in real life. the photos don't even do a lot of justice to your beauty'' Mimi said, wanting to suck up to Gilda. Her father had told her that she needed to become friends with the Governor's wife so that they would become close to the family. He wanted to use her to infiltrate the family of the Governor.

''Well, the pictures are always filters and too much makeup. I love to look natural'' Gilda said and Mimi's lips twitched.

''I don't mean any harm, Mrs. Swift. I simply praising your beauty'' Mimi said with a smile. She felt attacked by Gilda for no reason.

''I didn't…'' Charles squeezed Gilda's hand when she was about to give a quirky response. He looked at her and shook his head.

Daniel touched Mimi subtly and gave her a warning gaze.

''Mrs. Swift, the dress fits you'' Solace said, in order to salvage the situation.

''Thank you, Mrs. Song. Coming from a fashion icon like you, I feel assured'' Gilda said and turned her gaze at Mimi. She lifted her brow at her questionably.

''Let's go over there and take our pictures'' Daniel said and they walked away.

''Gilda, please'' Charles said as soon as they left.

''I don't like the vibes of that lady. she is vicious'' Gilda replied and her eyes lighted up when she saw the couple getting out of the car that had just pulled over.

Mikael got down from the car first and personally helped Natalie out of the car.

''That is Natalie Jun, right?'' Gilda turned to ask her husband.

''Yes, that is the woman who isn't a celebrity but is more famous than one''

''She is really beautiful. It's Solace blind? She left such a beautiful daughter for that green tea bitch''

''Language, Miss. You are the wife of the Governor''

''Charles, Gilda'' Mikael held Natalie's hand as they went closer to the other couple. Mimi looked at them from the red carpet and frowned.

''Mikael, thank you for coming'' Charles said as he shook Mikael's hand.

''Let me introduce to you. This is Natalie, my wife'' Mikael said proudly. The few reporters that were present there heard the news and gasped. They immediately started to write on it. this was the confirmation they needed for the kiss that took place at Janice.

''Hello, Natalie'' Charles shook Natalie's hand.

''Congratulations on becoming the Governor'' Natalie said and turned to look at Gilda. 'Mrs. Swift''

''I can call you Natalie, right? I am a big fan of you and Mikael. Your love story is the best, I hope to get a copyright on it. I can develop it into a hit drama'' Gilda said as she shook Natalie's hand.

''Thank you'' Natalie blushed.

'You are so beautiful, Natalie. I have a feeling that we are going to be good friends''

''That will be great''

''Natalie and I will go and take our pictures. I brought you a congratulatory gift, I asked someone to deliver it to your home''

''You are being polite, Mikael''

''It's nothing. I will see you when you are done, welcoming the guests''

''Sure''

''Let's go, Natie'' Mikael held Natalie's hand and they walked away.

'C'harles, I like Natalie. She is humble and has a good vibe around her''

''I can see that… oo, that's Alice Jun's car''

''Alice Jun, Natalie's younger sister?''

''Yes''

''I want an autograph from her too. This is my first time of meeting her in person but I heard from the gossip blogs that she is a sharp tongue''

''That is true. If Natalie is like the cool breeze, then Alice is like the wild waves of the sea''

''Mr. and Mrs. Swift, congratulations'' Alice said the moment she walked over to them.

'Thank you for coming, Alice''

''I wouldn't miss anything for good food'' Alice turned to Gilda, ''Mrs. Swift, you look really exceptional tonight. I should change my stylist to yours''

''Thank you, Alice. I feel flattered.

…

Standing inside, Mimi let out a sarcastic chuckle as she watched Alice and Gilda chatting happily. ''She does know how to smile? Why was she hostile to me?''

''Mimi… don't let the actions of minions bother you'' Daniel walked over and stood next to Mimi. They both looked outside.

''Daddy, why do I have a feeling that she doesn't like me?''

''She is simply jealous of you. But, let her have fun with the title of Mrs. Governor for a while. It won't be for long'' Daniel said meaningfully as he gazed at the couple with a complicated expression.
