Now everyone was sitting at attention. Shameek and Mr. Rod looked at each other.

“Along with operating accounts, business assets, trademarks, gaming licenses, and future profits associated with the establishment, go to Mrs. Kyenna King. Effective immediately, you are the sole owner and acting managing member of The Royal Flush,” Lloyd finished.

The fuck?” I shot up from my chair with Ryleigh clinging to me. “She got every muthafuckin’ thang.”

“What you thought, Ms. Newsome,” Kyenna said, with a smile.

KYENNA

“Are we done here?” I asked Lloyd.

“Actually, I need to see you privately,” he said.

“See,” Raya pointed between us. “I know this shit is a setup. It’s all good because I’ll be waiting on my muthafuckin’ funds when I prove that this little girl is a King.”

“Nobody said she wasn’t, babe,” I told her.

This hoe had more of an issue with me than she had with my husband. I wasn’t even going to show up today because I wasn’t in the mood to argue with anyone about my husband’s decision. I knew he had a will, but I was unaware of what was in it.

“Well, your fuckin’ husband implied it. And my child is the only one without his last name.”

“Prove that the baby is his. I’ll see what we can do legally to get it changed,” I told her.

“Girl, fuck your uppity ass.”

Pops stood up and buttoned his jacket. I knew from the stern look on his face that he was over Raya.

“Raya, is there anything else you need from this meeting?” He asked.

“Why…why do y’all protect her like she’s some type of queen? She’s been speaking down to me since I walked in here.”

“Do you need anything else? I would hate for my security to escort you out,” he said sternly.

“Fuck this shit! Come on, Ryleigh,” she grabbed her by the hand.

“Aye,” Shameek called out.

“What?” Raya turned around.

“I’ll be comin’ to get her next weekend.”

“You can as long as she’s not with her,” she said, looking at me.

I wanted to be petty and tell Ryleigh I would see her next week. My time to get on Raya’s level would come soon enough. Right now was not the moment. She was already making herself look like a greedy bitch. Once Raya left, Averie had no stood up and approached me.

“It’s my understanding that Khari will be with you this weekend,” Averie said.

“That’s correct.”

“Kaiden wanted to know if he could come too. He wants some pictures of his dad to blow up and put in his room. Obviously, he enjoys his room over there as well. If he even still has a room.”

“Averie, your kids will always have their own space at my home. That is their home as well. I would never do anything to harm them or you.”

“Thank you,” she said.

“Always.”
