" well since I can pick whatever I want then I'm willing to let go of my ring " Seraphina announced
" I knew it , you are just I gold digger that can't resist money " the girl said while laughing
" Of course I like money and who doesn't ? , why do billionaires still work even when they have so much money ? , it's obviously because they want more so who am I to refuse more money ?" Seraphina asked smiling
" Here you can have it " she said throwing the bag with the ring at the girl
turning back to the manger she continued " And now let's go pick out a new ring for me but Miss Ross here will have to come along so incase you aren't willing to part with my choice I can get my ring back "
" That won't be necessary " the manager said as she was sure that Seraphina wouldn't be able to pick an expensive ring and so what if she did she would just cover it up and the boss would never find out after all they have many copies of various
"You aren't even sorry " she reprimanded " because if you were you wouldn't just keep saying return the ring , you'd try to persuade me to buy it but because you still look down on me you don't even think I have enough money to afford something like this "The manager buried her head but didn't reply proving that Seraphina was right , to her it was obviously true. Seraphina might be able to afford a few branded clothes but at most all the outfits she'd bought would be around twenty to thirty thousand dollars and one carat of the red diamond was worth a million dollars and the ring had was with a total of of four carats of the red diamond putting it together it was worth around four million dollars , it was originally supposed to be kept inside the VIP room and shown to VIP customers but she'd wanted to brag about their store having a red diamond so she'd ignored orders and kept it in a regular display case for everyone to see and now she had lost it to a rand
she opened the door and saw a delivery man holding a package and she suddenly remembered Jason telling her that she would get her ring in the morning , she smiled and hummed to her self as she signed and collected the small package , when she opened it immediately revealing a small pink diamond on a silver band with a note attached to it" I'm sorry that I'm not there to put the ring on your finger but I can imagine how beautiful it would look on you love " she smiled at the sight of the note and looked at the beautiful ring again before putting it on and surprisingly it was a perfect fit , she went back up to her room picked an old picture frame , removed the picture and put in the note before carefully placing the frame with the note by her bed , she went back down with her purse and left for her parents' house happily , she wanted to call him and thank him for the beautiful ring but she decided to thank him in person and she could also use that opportunity
" First of all dad I'm not a baby anymore and secondly my fiance is Jason Bell , I'm sure you've heard of him" she said smiling stupidly" Of course we've heard of him , you father and I have worked with Susan and Joshua for years but this is unexpected . I didn't know you guys were this .. ehm close "" Well now you know " she said standing up " I have business to attend to "" Wait ! , what about wedding preparations ? , have you set a date ?"The sound of her phone ringing distracted her and she checked her phone to see who was calling" Excuse me " she told her parents before leaving the dinning table .After walking out she picked the call" Stacey ?" she called" Miss Williams " Stacey replied" What's the problem ?" she asked knowing that Stacey wouldn't call her unless something was wrong , she had her guesses but she wanted to be sure first" It's abou
Seraphina drove to Jason's office happily , but she began to wonder if she should open her new branch first or she should proceed with her wedding preparations but she pushed everything to the back for her mind , right now she would enjoy the moments as they came and she'd stop pressuring herself over trivial issues .She arrived at his office a few minutes earlier than she thought she would and when she arrived no one stopped her , they all greeted her with enthusiasm and even offered to help her to Jason's office . she wondered where the change of attitude came from but she really didn't care .She walked into the elevator going up to the 30th floor which was were Jason's office was , she passed by his secretary as she walked into his office without waiting for anyone to inform him of her arrival . Jason looked up to see who had the guts to barge into his office and his frown changed into a smile when he saw Seraphina , his eyes moved from her face t
Immediately after her confession a knock sounded on the door interrupting their moment together and Seraphina pulled herself together and took her seat as Jason returned to his desk before asking the person to come in , his secretary Beau entered the office" I'm sorry to err interrupt sir but you have a meeting now about the new project and the representatives of the other company along with their CEO are already present , it wouldn't do for us to keep them waiting any longer "He looked at Seraphina who was sitting in his office looking so calm and beautiful that he just wanted to send the people back and spend his day with her in his arms and she understood that gaze quite well" Don't cancel your meeting just because of me , it must be very important as well and I'll be fine "" I'll see you this evening "" Don't come over , I have to work as well . I was going to open up a new branch of my entertainment agency he
" I wonder if Jason is aware that his bride is already in love with someone else ?"" Oh please , every guy who has a girlfriend that loves k- drama should know that they aren't her number one " Seraphina explained with a 'duh' kind of expression" Well I guess you're right "They spent half of the night watching TV and screaming over cute scenes , crying over emotional ones and laughing over the funny parts , and when they were both beginning to fade Seraphina remembered her promise to Aiden , cursing and yelling in her mind she began to think of a way to bring it up to her friend .Talking to Samira about men in a situation regarding Samira herself was like threading on thin ice , Samira had been molested and maltreated by men from a young age and so she was touchy with the topic of meeting men and dating and anything romantic , it was a miracle that she wasn't gay and it took years of working on her self control before she could stop flinching
"But being able to cope with the past and the darkness is what makes you stronger and at some point you might actually be able to embrace the light and forget the past "Seraphina and Samira woke up followed their daily routine and got dressed for their meeting .Seraphina called Aiden to confirm their meeting place as well as their meeting date" Hey " she said as he picked the call " I just wanted to confirm the meeting place and time "" Is Samira coming ?" Aiden asked" Yes she is and I hope you have something good waiting for me "" I have a couple of places lined up but let's talk about that when we meet "" I just hope I'm not wasting my time with you "" Hey! , I can still hear you " Aiden yelled" I Know , I wanted you to hear me " Seraphina replied with Samira laughing in the background" who's there with you ? " Aiden asked " And why is she l
Seraphina and Samira drove to Aiden's office , they were led to his office where he sat comfortably sipping some coffee" Ah , you're here " he said smiling at Seraphina as she took a seat on the couch on his right " and you must be the ever fiesty Samira "" Yes I am . I'm guessing that you are the annoying and imcompetent Aiden Schmidt " Samira replied as she took a seat beside Seraphina" That's enough both of you " Seraphina said with a glare " Thia is a business meeting so keep your bickering for later . Now Aiden let's get down to business "" You said you already have some buildings in mind , I'd like to see them "" I've narrowed it down to ten buildings out of everything we have available and you can narrow it down further and the we can go see them in person " He handed her a file " These files contains all the details about each building , things like the number of offices , practice rooms , stuidios and mor
