A smile emitted from Dohana before she coldly said, "I don't think you have a say regarding that. I got this job on merit, so I'm staying."
Jake was seething with resentment as he stared at Dohana.
"Dohana, we have history, don't you understand? We can't work together."
"Maybe you can't, but I can. By the way, I already told mother-in-law that I got this job yesterday and she said father-in-law was very proud of me. So, don't you even think of firing me." Dohana strode out of the office thereafter, leaving Jake completely dumbstruck.
'Dohana, you think you're smart? You won't get away with this I promise you.' Jake gathered his thoughts.
When Jake left that office, she saw Dohana happily chatting with her colleague
"Will do sir," Stacy said and left.Jake smiled, thinking about how well he was dealing with Dohana, but the moment he remembered he still had to take her to meet his mother later on, a frown eliminated his grin.A few hours later that evening, Jake sent word for Dohana but he was infuriated when Stacy came back with a report."Sir, Dohana already knocked off, she said you can pick her up from home." Stacy sturdied Jake and saw the gloom on his face."Sir, what's your relationship with the Assistant Manager? Why would she be bold enough to expect you to fetch her from home?"Jake snapped back to his senses, "Stacy, it's nothing. I gotta rush. Let's meet on Monday, okay." Jake sped out of the office headed to his car.&nb
The next morning, Dohana's friends woke up early and started preparing for the engagement party. Excitement was written on their faces. They wore beautiful party dresses they had especially bought for the occasion the day before. Jean had especially organised for a limousine to pick up her daughter-in-law and her friends. She was really fond of Dohana and she thought the girl was exceptional. During their engagement party preparations meeting at the restaurant, Jean had noticed that Dohana had not asked for anything at all regarding her party. If it were other ladies, they would have demanded a whole list of things. The whole building's tenants was in an uproar once they saw the limousine parked downstairs. Everybody wanted to know who it had come to collect. Their jaws dropped when they saw the three ladies get off the elevator and walking towards the
'Beautiful, simply beautiful.' 'Who is she?' Soon they found their voice and someone said, "is this the woman getting engaged to Jake Larson? "I would have thought she was the lucky one, but looking at her, Mr Larson is the lucky one." Jake grimaced as he heard the people commenting. He was angry as he glared at the diamond necklace hanging on Dohana's neck. That's the same diamond necklace he had bought for his mother for a whooping 50 million dollars a year ago. Why is she wearing that? Does a poor girl like Dohana know what necklace is that? That's the David Morris 18 karet Trillium Akoya Pearl and Diamond necklace. How dare she wears it. Jake was sweating with exas
At the hall, Jean Larson was seeing off some of her well known guests as the attendies dispursed and departed the venue. Just then Jean turned to see Stacy coming over. She smiled and said, "Stacy Griffith, so nice of you to have come today. I really appreciate your support-" "It's my pleasure madam." Stacy smiled bitterly and continued, "by the way madam, you didn't tell me that Christine Dohana was-" Before she could finish, Jean interrupted her, "about that, I really appreciate what you did for me regarding hiring my lovely niece." Hearing that, Stacy cleared her throat and said, "you mean your soon to be daughter-in-law?" Jean was instantly blushing while she glanced sideways. "Stacy, let's forget about that ma
At the Sunlight Towers Hotel, a young couple walked in, one ahead of the other and made their way into the lobby. The woman wore a stylish party dress that kept all the man ogling at her as she dazzled through. Even the receptionist stood up to take a good look at that amazing woman. Feelings everyone's gaze upon her, Dohana flustered and held back to walk right next to Jake. "Please book a separate room for yourself," she whispered to Jake. What? Jake was surprised. His mouth curled up as a sinister plan came up. "Well, mother made the bookings. What would she say if she found out that we're staying in different rooms, huh?" Dohana's gorgeous face grimaced. Jake caught wind of it and smiled.
"Hello, hello, Jake are you there!" A voice sounded from the cellphone. "Ah, you done answered the phone, just speak already," Jake shrugged. "Umm, hello?" Said Dohana as she put the phone on her ear. "Who's this? Dohana is that you? Put Jake on the phone." Luke sounded startled to hear Dohana answer Jake's phone. 'When did their relationship get to that level?' "Well, Jake can't answer the phone right now," Dohana answered. "What? Why not? Dohana, you better put Jake on the phone now!" Jake was smiling while watching, he knew Luke had a temper. "Well, your friend is swimming butt-naked in the jacuzzi, I can't actually go over a
"Alright guys, let's go wait for them downstairs." Jake led the way. An hour later, the group arrived at an upmarket club hosted at the top of a luxurious flat. Only the most influential, rich and famous people attended such an extraordinary club. The club was already packed when Jake and his friends arrived. A waitress greeted them and led them to a VIP table. The women were quick to sit next to their partners while Dohana chose to sit next to Miley London. On their way to the club, they had gotten pretty close. The waitress then took their order and left. "Dohana sweetheart, don't be silly. Go sit next to your man," Miley said seriously. There was awkwardness at that moment. The others began to wonder if Jake and Dohana had been fighting already.
Jake had managed to turn around and head back to his seat. He smiled nonchalantly as he sat down. He didn't even mind the eyes staring at him in disbelief. "I thought I recognised her, turns out she's not the person I thought she was," Jake said and gulped down on his wine. Everyone seemed to be suppressing a laugh, while Miley and Dohana were still upset. The beautiful woman Jake had approached had turned to watch him leave. She stood up at this moment and came over to their VIP table. Her sharp eyes glanced around the ladies in quick succession. When her eyes landed on Dohana, she said, "gorgeous, what's a princess like you doing with a scum like him?" When her words fell, it sent shivers down everyone's sp
