Past flings.

Sheila went home dejected,with those kind of comments, there's no way she was getting a night job tonight. Deciding not to keep lingering around, she went home waiting to embrace her fate of sleeping on the Streets come tomorrow.

It would have been fine if Vee was around. she could have crashed at her best friends house if thrown out but with Vee abroad, she didn't have anywhere else to seek refuge.

She regretted not taking her friend's offer of moving in with her. Atleast of she did, she wouldn't be having trouble with a roof over her head. But there was no need to cry over spilt milk, she would cross that bridge tomorrow. With those thoughts, she surrendered to sleep.

At the Brown Villa,the father and daughter duo was having a heated staring contest. The servants were having a hard time watching. The atmosphere was dreadful, like anytime the third world war would be erupting soon.

David finally gave up. His daughter was very stubborn and never knew the meaning of taking a step back.

" What is it Princess?" he asked although knowing well what this was about.

" I am not your princess,my beautiful sister is. I already found you a wife and a mother for myself yet you did nothing other than hurrying me up home." lily complained. She was really pissed off by her father's slow wits.

" So it's a get a husband and win a daughter for Free for her?" David said,amused by his daughter's thinking.

" No ,it's get a daughter,win a husband for free." Lily retorted, rolling her eyes at her father's absurdity.

" Why am I the free commodity here? I am More valuable than you." David complained. His daughter had a way of making him feel useless and worthless.

" You aren't competent enough,besides I am the one doing the courting here." lily answered nonchalantly earning a glare from David and countless chuckles from the servants eavesdropping.

" What if I don't approve her for your mother?" David challenged his daughter, cocking his brows at her.

" Do you dare? only I get to choose who I want for a mother. You had that Chance before and you wasted it." lily said referring to the countless women he had introduced to her earlier.

" Should I remind you that it's you who send them all away?" David countered. He could still remember how his daughter harassed all the women he brought home.some would run away crying after getting pranked by his daughter. Others would choose to back down after getting terrorized.

He knew how his daughter was. Bratty.

" That's because you only collected a batch of unqualified people for me,so I had to expose how incompetent they were." lily replied, shrugging nonchalantly. Not even a trace of guilt could be seen on her face. That was his daughter. A don't care little girl but one he loved with his everything.

" So what do you want me to do?" David asked, wanting to see what evil schemes were running inside his daughter's little brain.

" It's simple. Make beautiful sister come home. Employ all the manly charms you have,it's okay of you don't know how to do it,I can gladly help you." Lily said,her voice arrogant and full of confidence.

David didn't know whether to cry or laugh. In his daughter's eye's,he was the most incompetent Man she has ever seen. He couldn't blame her,he knew why she had that perception. But it was hard for him. Scooting for a lady who wanted to be a stepmom to his daughter wasn't easy. It didn't help that his daughter was full of evil schemes and would chase them away on the first day.

" Just that?" He asked to make sure. He has been thinking about that little woman ever since he saw her. Her face was small, pure and attractive. She was the kind of beauty that could bring even kings to their knees. He also wanted her. He was very much Interested in her as a Man. Taking her as his wife sounded pleasant.

" What do you mean by only that?" Lily scoffed. " Do you think it's easy? am telling you,she won't follow you because you look average and have money." Lily rebuked her father mercilessly hurting his Male ego.

Ofcourse, David could tell that she wasn't one to be attracted to money. If she was,the best she could have displayed it is by recognizing him. Any money oriented woman seemed to know the rich guys by heart.

But why was his daughter saying that his looks were average? If they are,then why was he entitled as the most handsome bachelor in town? Between the netizens and his daughter, who was right? He unconsciously traced his face contours with his fingers.

" Tsk tsk tsk! Why are you concerned about how you look? your face is the last thing she'll be interested in." Lily mocked his father mercilessly making David wonder if the two of them perhaps had a personal grudge in their past life and that's Why she was born as his daughter to torment him?

" How do you know that? you are not her, besides a beautiful face is everything a woman wants from a man." David defended himself. Infront of his daughter,he was rendered speechless. She had a glib tongue and she used it to her advantage and against him.

" I pity you for thinking that way. Only ladies should be concerned about their good looks,as a man aren't you ashamed counting on your pretty face to woo a woman?' Her eloquence was unparalleled. She could even outdo a literature lecturer.

" What's wrong with that?" David countered. His good looks and money, coupled with his family name made countless women to spend sleepless nights.

" I know what you're thinking and as I said, she is different from your past flings." Lily said seriously.

" What flings? I never had flings." David retorted, feeling aggrieved by his daughter's accusations.

" Then what do we call the Ladies you introduced to me?" Lily casually asked earning a glare from David.

" I never hooked up with them,I only Introduced them to you for approval." David defended himself. As a four year old, wasn't she too talented in twisting words.

" Whatever. I really don't care about what they were. I only want my beautiful sister. So Daddy, don't fail me this time. Prove your worth to me." Lily said and finally started eating before her food got cold. Now,the ball was on her father's coat. She already found him the perfect wife and a perfect mother for herself. She just hoped her father wouldn't mess everything she worked for today.
