Requests

After the contract was signed. Bryane received his money in cash, Jhonia was pleased. Together with Mrs. Pinnock, she left after retrieving her mother and father's journal, and the watch, she never left her sight.

“How do you feel?” Mrs. Pinnock asked, and Jhonia took a deep breath and finally relaxed.

“I'm fine, thank you. My parent's deaths or paid I'm free from all that! I will contact my cousin as soon as possible.” Jhonia replied and said how she feels free now she will contact her cousin soon, with a smile.

“That's good. Since we're going to your new home, I would like to inform you about some important details. I will go ahead then.” Mrs. Pinnock said, then explained to Jhonia and she nodded in agreement.

“I'm sure, I will adapt well!” Jhonia said, looking down at her mother's journal. She took a deep breath and relaxed her mind. 

“Go ahead,” Jhonia added.

“1. My son is always busy, as his wife of ten years relationship, 2 years together and 8 years of marriage. My son refused to bring home a woman so I decided to choose one for him, lucky for him you're a smart one. 2. You will have to change your style of hairstyles, make-up, and clothing. As you're my son's wife the CEO of D.O.J. He is the only son of me and my late husband. So of course, he deserves the best. 3. You will have to socialize yourself with other women of our status, as well as going shopping and dining with them constantly talking about your husbands and their wealth, I assume that’s what they speak of.” Mrs. Pinnock said to her that she will need to change her style and more. Immediately after she said that about make, such Jhonia looked at her with displeasure! 

“I'm sorry, but I do not like your third request. Forgive me but I don't find it amusing to chat with women about men for that matter, I would rather stay home if that is the case.” Jhonia apologized to her and explained herself in a determined tone of voice.

“I see. Well then, why don't you get to know these ladies and see what they speak when they're alone. And 4. My son has a private hotel room. Hmm, he often stays there and you will go from time to time to make sure others see you. Showing that you have been away but have returned to show people that he has a wife. See? I said that my son's wife was away visiting friends and family members. Lastly, My son's marriage image is most important here, you must hold up his marriage image.” Mrs. Pinnock said and asked her to try, then told her that her son has a secret hotel room and she will be visiting often to show people and also uphold his marriage image while smiling at Jhonia.

“And you will pay whatever the cost for this lost request of yours?” Jhonia asks turning herself into the car seat looking at her with a smile on her face.

“Yes, here are your credit cards. The account they are related to will change into your name after the contract is signed.” Mrs. Pinnock responds to jhonia and tells her as she hands over the credit cards.

“Hmm. I don't like make-up, so I hope that you have a problem with this? I like lip gloss only.” Jhonia hmm, and explained she will not wear make-up then asked? As she told me her dislikes in make-up.

“Ms. Smith, do you think you can fool me? If your face has no make-up then, let me check!” Mrs. Pinnock addressed her and asked, she then said retrieving her pack wipes to check.

“Let me tell from where I sit here. 1. I don't like people touching me. 2. I don't wear make-up! If you look closely you will see for yourself, I like lip gloss only. 3. I don't fancy expensive things but for this your son's image and the money you pay for me to agree to this contract marriage, I will make sure to keep his image. 4. I do not intend to do these things you claim will go on with these fellow ladies. 5. I hope there is a room prepared for me, if I should sleep in the same room as your son I hope there is another bed. 6. If there's a chance I will have to abandon my friend, let me tell you here and now it will not happen. 7. I love my space, so if you have maids you explain to them I will do much on my own. 8. I will do my cooking and clean myself. 9. I don't think your son is aware of me and my style so, explain to him I don’t want anyone this includes him, do not touch me unless I said so. 10. I won't be friends with these women and go shopping, etc, with them daily. Also, I would like to work. I don't want to sit down in your house all day doing nothing. These are my request to you.”

Jhonia said, fixing herself properly in the car seat. Jhonia went on to explain herself and her request. but as surprised as Mrs. Pinnock was, so did her driver. She glanced at Jhonia who was staring at the journal. As she was about to speak! 

“Also, this is important. Do not, I repeat do not touch my stuff.” Jhonia turned to her and said to her, Mrs. Pinnock was speechless.

The car ride becomes silent between the two, Jhonia keeps her distance from Mrs. Pinnock. After a very long ride from where Jhonia once lived to a new place. High-quality buildings, fancy cars, women in groups with bags. Dressed in fancy dress heels instead of flat shoes. Rings on their fingers, diamond bracelets on their wrist and ankle. Earrings and necklace of diamonds.

Jhonia sat up taking a deep breath as she analyzed these women and their dress and coat style, she began watching the men going back and forth. The coats, the suits and colours, the watches and bags to briefcase. She began checking the cars and their names. She looked at the names and styles, she watched until her eyes began catching couples and how the men were treating the women. Bringing bags for them, smiling, and talking with them. She smiled.

“This is how you will live from now on, you will also have guards if you want and a personal driver to do as you wish.” Mrs. Pinnock said to Jhonia as she realized she was looking at everyone outside the car window. Jhonia rests back and looks at her.

“Is your son this kind of person?” Jhonia asks her?

“He is but depends on you. Jhonia, as his wife who has controlled him at times.” Mrs. Pinnock said while looking at her. Jhonia nods with a smile.

After the dust has finally appeared they arrive at a huge house, when Jhonia stepped out of the car she wondered how many people live inside. Mrs. Pinnock approaches her. 

“Let's go inside. We have traveled all day.” Mrs. Pinnock said to her.

“Okay. I wonder how many family members are staying inside this house, it's almost like a castle?” Jhonia said, and then asked? Looking at the house as she walked with Mrs. Pinnock to the door.

“Just me. At first, it was me, my son, and my husband. When my husband passes, my son spends more time in his hotel room.” Mrs. Pinnock said, explaining to her that it is now her alone.

“I see,” Jhonia responded. They entered the house, Jhonia began looking around the hall to the living area and the kitchen area, there's also a staircase.
