All Chapters of The Tutor: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Frank looked at the way Athena left and was glad she ran away, he turned to Sean and smiled, “I am very sorry about that Mr. Brand, I never wanted you to see that and neither am I like that as well. It’s just that I figured I should be hard on her for her to let me go. You see, I met her a few days ago and I offered her some cash but she had refused to let me go since then. She follows me around, everywhere I go, she even attended your party last night but I asked her to leave and I also made her understand that it can never work between us, who would have expected that she would stalk me to here again? I figured I had to be extremely hard for her to get the picture.”Sean said nothing, all that was going through his mind was how he could easily end the man’s career with just a phone call, he just needs to call Leo and ask him to fire him and the man would be jobless in the next ten minutes but what would be the point of that? That would just be the quic

“What?” TB shouted, “you can’t be serious.”Athena looked at him, “I am, TB, listen,” she glanced at Sean, “I know you have good plans for me and I know you want to make me better but…there is no use. I’m fine here, I have been since I was born and also, this is my home, I have a lot of memories in this house, those with my parents, there are dear to me. I can’t just get up one day, pack my things and throw away everything. I belong here, and I will like to stay here.”“Oh,” TB looked at Sean who hadn’t said anything since Athena made her declaration.“Sean, please understand, there is no use tutoring me to become better and all that, Frank has broken up with me, I understand that now and what better way to get over him than to be where I will never see him? Frank hates this place, although during the time we were together, he never mentions it but I know, just like I know that nothing will bring him back here, ever. So, I will prefer to stay here, I will get over him soone

Athena went down to join Sean for breakfast, dressed in shorts and top and barefooted, TB had told her he would leave early to the company because he need to make preparations for the models who would be leaving with them to France for some fashion show. She was happy when she found the dining room in one try and happily jogged to meet the already eating Sean.Sean looked up from his plate of breakfast and examined her; he frowned when he noticed she was not wearing any footwear, “didn’t Tobias show you the shoes I got for you?”“He did,” she answered, pulling a chair back and sitting down to dish out her food.“And?”“They are all heels, I can’t walk on heels, there is not a single flat something there so I said to myself, since it’s just breakfast, I could come down like this.”“First of all, it’s not just breakfast and second, barefoot is not allowed here,” he cautioned.

“Athena, wait,” Frank ran after her, “please, hold on.”Athena turned, putting down her phone, she looked at him with a raised eyebrow, “yes, Frank?”Frank heaved a sigh, licking his bottom lips, he gulped and looked into her brown eyes, the eye-shadow she had on was enhancing her eye color, making it irresistible not to stare at, “listen, I know you didn’t expect to see me inside nor running after you but if you must know, I have been trying to get close to you but the opportunity never presented itself, that’s why I am taking this chance now,” he blabbered.Athena raised an eyebrow, “alright then, you have me here, now what?”Frank chuckled nervously, “come on, Athena, you don’t have to speak to me in that tone. You have ignored me inside and I finally got you to talk, don’t be like that.”“Really? How should I speak to you then? I should slur when talking

Sean needed no one to tell him that he had learnt nothing from his story, he shook his head unbelievably and sighed, “The uniqueness and gracefulness of a woman is not calculated by what she wears but by what is inside her and what she portrays, the aura that seeps out of her. It was what the man had seen on the poorly dressed beggar and knew she was his. So what am I saying? All I have to say is that I am sorry, Frank but none of these drafts portrayed the three qualities and I told you that I will consider you a failure in the contract if you didn’t get those three qualities.”Frank sat up on the chair immediately, “no, no, no Mr. Brand, if you don’t like the drafts, I can make new ones, you don’t have to end the contract.”Sean heaved a sigh, “but how can you make a new design when you don’t understand the right perspective? You need to understand that the beauty of a woman is not in what she wears or where she lives
