Chapter 19 " Hi David ,hi Chris " Evelyn greeted walking over to seat beside David opposite Christopher . " My name is Christopher and you'll refer to me as Mr Christopher because we are in a working environment ...and you'll only seat when I ask you to " . Christopher replied glaring at her as she tried sitting but paused halfway after his statement . " Come on chris ....I mean Mr Christopher ,don't be so petty ". Evelyn replied shocked at Christopher's attitude although she acted it so well that no one noticed . David watched the scene amusedly . " Why are you here ?" . Christopher asked ignoring whatever she said . " Can I at least sit ?" " Miss Evelyn why are you here ?". Christopher asked again . " Can I talk to you alone then ? ". Evelyn asked staring at David who already got the hint . It's time to leave ..... " If you cannot say why you are here in front of David then you can leave ". Christopher replied rudely. " I have files to attend to in my office ....so
Evelyn got back home annoyed and irritated , how could christopher treat her like that ? .It's all because of that woman he married .If getting rid of that witch he got married to is the only way to get him back then she'll definitely do it .*************" Hi mum " Olivia greeted smiling excitedly immediately she got to her mother's restaurant .After paying their house rent with the half payment she got for her contract married and adding some touches to their eatery it is now worthy to be called a restaurant." My dear daughter " her mother yelled and pulled her into a hug .They both settled down on a seat as Olivia looked around thinking about how much she missed working at the restaurant , delivering food to their customers and working side by side with her mother ." How's Christopher ?" " He's doing great ! ,He's busy at the office which is why he couldnt come with me but He sends his greetings and he promised to come greet you whenever he's free ". Olivia lied .She di
Olivia headed back home after she had spent enough time with her mother and her friend .She now has a chaffeur and a personal car to herself ,this is definitely the kind of life she never expected to live ....at least not too soon .She noticed Christopher's car was already parked when she got into the house .She opened the door gently and met him sitting on the sofa his back turned at her ." Hi " she greeted and got no response .She wonders if he's mad at her for leaving the house without telling him .She walked to where he's sitting and he finally turned to face her ." I'm sorry I left the house without informing ....." " Where did you go to ?" Christopher asked cutting her off .She felts chills running down her spine with how cold he sounded. " I went over to my mum's place , the house felt boring and I have missed her ,we haven't seen each other since the wedding and I'm not used to that .... I'm sorry I left without informing you ". Immediately she said that she felt hi
Olivia lane sat down on her wooden bed which will sooner or later break into pieces smiling dreamily as the thoughts of going to college made her happy. At last her college fee is complete after years of working hard and waiting ." Olivia !". Her mum called from the kitchen .She kept the brown envelope neatly inside her drawer , saving money in the bank meant having to pay extra charges and she cannot afford to lose out any money so she resulted to saving cash. She walked excitedly into the kitchen humming one of drake's rap song ." Goodmorning mum ". Olivia greeted enthusiastically still humming ." Someone seem happy this morning " Olivia's mum stirred the food she is cooking without sparing her clearly excited daughter a glance ." I'm going to college" olivia blurted out hoping her mum will just be as excited as she is .Olivia's mum on the other hand turned pale immediately she heard what her daughter said. How is she meant to tell her daughter she can not afford sending
Christopher Andrews paced to and fro his office .He still finds what Grandpa Andrews said this morning ridiculous ." You either get married or lose the company Chris,there are just two sides to this coin " . David stated as he just stared amusedly at his best friend ." Do I just walk into the street and marry any lady I find within a month ?!" Christopher asked obviously annoyed at the way his friend is so calm about the situation ." It's nothing to be upset about Buddy , I'm just trying to make you see the situation ." David smiled showing generously the large dimple on his left cheek .Christopher stopped pacing and walked over to seat beside his friend on the big sofa chair in his king's bedroom sized office . " Thank you captain obvious ,your point has been proven, what do I do ?" . " Find a lady ,fall in love and get married and have a happy ever after ending ". Christopher rolled his eyes at the annoying idea David just proposed ." That's never going to happen ! I'm nev
Olivia's phone started ringing and lifetime by Justin Bieber played .She placed the food neatly in front of the customer" Bon appetit !" .She smiled at how better her french sounds .Immediately she got back to her stand she removed her phone from her jeans back pocket and Smiled as her best friend's name " Tildaaa" with lots of love emojis displayed on her phone." Hey birthday girl how's your day going ?" Olive chuckled at how excited her friend sounds on the phone .It's my birthday not hers she thought ." Okay yyy , I'm just at mum's eatery " ." Are you ready for tonight?".Her friend successfully lobbied her into accepting to go clubbing,her mum's approval came easily since she never asked to out at night before and after all she's 22 today." I am " . Olivia replied" I'll be at your house by 7 " .Without waiting for her reply Matilda hung up .Few hours later" You look stunning bestie !". Matilda squeeked excitedly ,her friend would have made a great model if not for h
'' You mean the handsome prince charming you met last night asked you to marry him ?" Matilda asked her eyes about to bulge out ." Stop being dramatic plus that man is probably drunk ". Olivia replied uninterested .She has few days left for her to be a college student and that's the only thing that matters ." You are such a boring one ! How can you not be interested in such a beautiful marriage proposal ? Do you know how ladies suffer to get a man to hand them a ring these days ?" Matilda continued obviously not backing down from the conversation .Sometimes Olivia gets tired of her friend's over active imagination and thinking .How is she supposed to feel about a stranger's marriage proposal ? " Listen Tilda .....that man is probably drunk and why the heck should I care about what ladies go through to get a stupid ring on their finger ? Marriage sucks ". Matilda just stared at her friend with utter disbelief ." Because your parents didn't work out ?" Matilda asked gently and s
The following morning........." Olivia .... I'm sorry ....I should have just listened to you ... I'm sorry " . Robert cried gently on his sick bed .He didn't want to ride a bycicle but he eventually had to when his friends wouldn't stop calling him a "skirt ",he didn't like the fact that they thought his sister is the one telling him what to do and what not to do." It's fine ....stop crying and just focus your energy on getting better ". Olivia replied not sparing their mother a glance .She just couldn't get rid of the feeling that their mother had sided with Robert too much and that has led him to disobeying her instructions .At that moment she just hated her mother ..... perhaps she just needs someone to blame for being unlucky ." Olivia ! Robert !" Matilda yelled rushing into the hospital ward sweating profusely .She rushed to Robert's side on the bed ." How's he ?" Matilda asked clearing the silence that has taken over between her and her friend ." Doctor said he's out of
