DECLARATION

At 3:30am in the night ,Diana wakes up to get herself some drinking water to quench her thirst so she walks down stairs to the kitchen to get some bottled water however at this exact time Alfred is just going to prepare to go back to sleep because he had woken up at 12:30 am to conduct a meeting between him and his vice president Jonah in order to discuss which famous clothes store would be best to introduce his clothes and market them so as to increase the popularity of his brand . Immediately he ends the meeting, he remembers that he heard Diana's door open so curiosity gets the best of him and he decides to follow and see what her agenda is especially at this time of the night.

Once Diana is drinking her water she realizes there is sort of a shadow that is coming closer and from the stories she heard when she was young she knows 3:30 am is actually the time for ghosts to always roam around and without analysing, Diana grabs Alfred and hits him really hard in the stomach, slaps his face till it gets a black eye and sits on his legs to make sure the ghost does not run but the ghost she is hitting is actually none other than her husband of which you can not blame her because Alfred came knowing that Diana is in the kitchen and decided to come tip toeing not to make any sound yet he was coming from a dark corridor so since Diana was in a place with some dim light, she kept looking at the effects of the wall hence self defense .

Diana: Alfred? what are you doing in here?

Alfred: Kindly first get off of my legs and we talk .( Alfred says this in a painful voice because his body is hurting from the punches he has received from his pathetic wife.)

Diana: Oh, I am so sorry , I did not mean to do this to you.

Alfred: what is done is done.

Diana: Let me get you some ice cubes and we apply on the sore parts like your eyes.

Alfred: Okay, thanks .

Diana gets an ice cube in the freezer wraps it in a small towel and starts rubbing it against his black eye caused by the heavy punches.

While Diana is trying to offer first aid to her husband, Alfred starts a conversation with her and tells her that he has actually identified where her strength is and because of that she is now an A list fighter when it comes to combat. Amidst trying to be caring and taking responsibility for her actions, Diana can't help but laugh her lungs out and on that same reagrd she tells Alfred that she actually always thought he had some energy in his body but from the looks of the situation that has occurred, she realises that Alfred is more of a dog that barks but can not bite. After Diana is sure that Alfred's black eye is not a threat anymore, she wishes him a blessed night and each of them goes back to continue with their sleep.

While still in deep slumber, a loud alarm is heard in the whole house but this noise doesn't sit well with Diana so she runs out screaming there is a fire in the house.

This shocks Alfred and so he asks her where the fire is but she says that the sound of the alarm is the only proof of a fire in the house so they should look for it.

Alfred starts laughing so loud at Diana and tells her that much as you are rich , you are not that well exposed because the alarm you

are relating to warning us of a fire is actually a systemized in built alarm meant to wake business people like us at 6:00am so as to catch our appointments and with this explanation, Diana is embarrassed yet angry because that alarm clock actually ruined her beauty sleep. Alfred also insists that she prepare so fast since there is to be a press conference.

At the press conference, Diana sits next to Alfred in the middle of the conference room as the reporters stand in front of them while questioning Diana in regards to the public scandal that gained her many haters , however as they are still prompting answers from Diana in her defense, Alfred shuts the whole room by declaring that Diana is his wife and has always been and that the evidence leaked about Diana being a prostitute is all a made up story by her enemies because as far as he is concerned even the day they posted thise photograhs of her kissing another man, he had been with her the whole entire night. With those few words said , Alfred is able to clean up the mess he brought unto Diana and he feels glad he has rectified his mistake. While Alfred and Diana are standing up to leave, one reporter asks Alfred what caused his black eye and calm as he is replies that he ran into some goons yesterday night who gave him a black eye but as he speaks this he slightly looks at Diana with a serious face

and notices Diana smiling stealthily at the answer Alfred is giving because she knows that what he is saying is not even near to the truth but a totally fabricated story made up to cover up for her .

Before Alfred moves out of the conference room, he asks if there are more questions and only one reporter requests for evidence to prove that the marriage between Diana and Alfred is real and to his own shock, a marriage certificate of the legal marriage is presented to the media and it is posted for the public to know that Diana is not actually a bad person as they think because she still has some good values left within her.
