Elsie took her time while walking thinking that Oswald would pass her by. But he didn’t, it was like they were almost walking together, suddenly, Elsie’s phone rung and she saw it was Aires, she turned her head slightly and answered the phone speaking,Aires.Where are you now? I am back in the room.Elsie sighed and responded to him,I will be there in a few seconds; I was in the restaurant.She quickened her pace and Oswald stopped when he heard her words. He turned and walked to the room where Rod was. He saw him by his computer and he asked him,Is the engagement place settled? Is it decided?Rod shook his head and answered to him,Miss Tess was unhappy that you couldn’t check with her and decided to check it tomorrow as she wasn’t in the right mood now.Oswald nodded his head and asked him again,What about Hubery, have you found that he has done anything? He had threatened me and I didn’t think that he would lay still without doing anything.Rod nodded his head and answered to h
Tess felt that she had been trampled by an tractor, she felt lifeless that Elsie had managed to fool her and put fear in her. She felt angry and wanted to let it out and so she shouted,How dare you? Who do you think that you are? I will make sure you suffer you bi…!!!!Her words stuck in her throat as she saw Oswald coming in her way, Oswald had heard her from afar and asked her worriedly,What’s wrong? What happened?Tess wrinkled her face and suddenly, a smile and calm expression appeared on her face. she sighed once again before saying to him,It’s okay, it’s nothing. I am very much okay.Oswald still stared at her with worry in his eyes, he had never seen Tess in that manner. To think that he didn’t see anyone she was mad at when he came worried him. Tess saw that he was worried about her and decided to take the chance and speak to him,Oswald, why don’t you change your room? It’s so far from mine. I wanted us to be closer.Oswald shook his head and replied to her,I don’t think
Oswald entered his room looking down spirited and confused. He brought out his phone and dialled Rod’s number. He answered on the second ring and asked him,Sir, why are you calling?Oswald didn’t hesitate and asked himTell me, what did you find about Rod. Is there any odd information about him?Rod heard his words and thought,Why does he want to hear odd news about him? Oswald is truly jealous and insecure about this guy. Something that I am seeing for the first time.Rod sighed and answered to him,He is an orphan that the Alfred’s helped. They put him into school and somehow, he has gotten to where he is.Oswald shook his head and asked him,That is all there is to it? why do I feel like there’s more? That young man isn’t that normal as everyone sees it. You must continue investigating him and if there’s anything, report to me.Yes, Sir. I will. But sir, you didn’t ask if I had taken Miss Tess home safely. Rod and answered and said to Oswald.Oswald suddenly found it irritating a
She drove to hotel with a smile on her face, she alighted from the car and hopped as she entered the building with her hand bag. The people that saw her wondered what made her that happy but no one could hear her thoughts and so, they could only mind their own business. Tess walked towards Oswald’s hotel room with an obvious smile and thought to herself,I will make sure he forgets yesterday and make the day wonderful as we walk our wedding room together.She arrived at the door and raised her hand to knock on the door but she stopped and adjusted her hair and cloths and then she cleared her throat and knocked on it. Tess, waited to hear,Come inBut nothing like that came in but silence responded to her. She shook her head and knocked once again and when she didn’t hear anything response again. She started banging on the door. The people in the corridor wondered what her problem was but she wasn’t bothered.Elsie was still in her room and hadn’t left yet, she had heard the first knoc
Elsie looked on her phone waiting for the reply of Oswald, somehow, she felt anxious about this and started biting her finger nails. Her eyes kept darting from the phone and back to the window as she sat on the bed. Suddenly, she heard her ding with a message, in a second, it was in her palm and she was reading it. she saw it was from her bank and she had received the exact amount she had sent to Oswald.She looked at the phone and back at the window again before texting to him,I received this as a gift. And so I don’t think it’s necessary for you compensate me.The message went through all right but no answer came in no matter how long she waited. She sighed and got ready and left for her workplace as well. Elsie was typing on her laptop when she saw an alert on the task bar, she wondered who had sent her a mail which wasn’t from any of the company’s address and yet got through to her.Out of curiosity, she stopped what she was doing and opened the mail. At first sight, she saw it w
A completed hotel was situated in the east side of the city. Oswald was standing in front of the hotel with a look of scrutiny in his eyes. As if remembering something, he looked in the way of Rod who was beside him and said to him,Invite Elsie here, tell her to be here in an hour as we can’t spend too much time here.Rod watched him with confusion on his face, Oswald saw this and explained to him,I want her to be part of this project. I think she has good judgement and can help us in acquiring and making this place great.Rod didn’t understand the reason his boss would explain himself to him, and so he thought,Why do I feel this isn’t the only reason? Why else would he explain himself to me? He wouldn’t do that before no matter how much I misunderstood him.He nodded his head and called Elsie’s office and relayed the message. He told Oswald that he had done as instructed and he nodded and said well done to him, to Rod’s surprise.Elsie didn’t know Oswald would engage her so early
The manager looked at Oswald and glanced at Elsie and then said to them,I thought I could explain with my mouth but it seems I will have to present the statistics to you. Please give me a minute to get it.As he spoke, he only looked in the way of Oswald, Oswald nodded and he passed by Elsie as he walked away, he bumped into her shoulder slightly and he said to himself,If not that I need to keep my job, why would I need to answer to a common woman?They heard him and Oswald held Elsie in place as it was a big bump moving her from her feet. Elsie adjusted her body and said to him in a low voice,I hope you would get rid of this manager, if for nothing, for the hotel. He will cause unnecessary trouble in here.Oswald nodded and agreed in a deep voice,That I promise you. Be rest assured.The contract was signed with the manager and he was happy that he had been able to sign the contract. But then, the expression of Oswald and Elsie were sour and he didn’t know if he should be happy ab
The smile on Oswald’s face was so obvious that Elsie didn’t know where to look out of embarrassment. He cleared his throat when he realized that he looked too happy for been called by his name. she thought that she had to rush to her car but then she remembered that it almost left her on the road because it had run out of gas.Oswald sighed and then told her,How about you let me drop you at your work place?Elsie shook her head quickly but she looked in the way of her car and recalled it had no gas to take her back. Elsie didn’t know what to do, but then she suddenly remembered that she could call Ann to pick her up. And so, she brought out her phone from her purse but her expressionless face turned sour when her phone wouldn’t switch on.Oswald watched her attempt to escape his company and Elsie realized that she had been found out. And so, she hung her head still tapping on her phone, she sighed and thought,Why did I get caught so easily? Nothing is working out for me and I have a
