Chapter 21Scar povI can't belive what Zion is talking about. How willl I just get wed without any plan or preparation. I know this a contract marriage but damn everything is being rushed. I sat there listening about what he's saying before I speak up"It's okay but" I was saying when the door fling open and a lady entered or should I said a woman because on a closer look Zion looks a little bit like her and boom she started shouting and screaming about her not being informed. Like seriously if she's worried and angry when she's not the bride what will I do then probably I will start killing people. I said all this in my head without listening to their conversations until she faced me and called me a whore. I looked at her first before I tried to open my mouth and reply her but Zion stood up for me, seeing that I walked out because i think this between them and it's gonna be bad if I get involved I put my phone inside the safe before walking into the toilet. I think I had consume al
I left the office yesterday immediately Scar left without saying a single word to my mother because I see no reason of doing thatI didn't sleep at home rather at my penthouse so I decided to call Grandma to check how she's faring "Good morning my beautiful wife" I teased "Morning husband to be but am not your wife okay" she replies back "you didn't sleep at home yesterday?" She asked which I know she will definitely talk about it"Something came up""Okay then. We have just two days to your wedding" she reminds me "and please don't do anything that will hinder this wedding because I'm looking forward to it""Worry not. I promised nothing is gonna hindered your dream day though you're not the wife nor the husband but you're more worried and excited than us the couples""Whatever. I know you're ready for work so bye and make sure you come back tonight""Okay grandma love ya and good bye" I said ending the call when I heard the lock opens which means someone is here. I put on my jacket
Scar Immediately I set my foot out of the office I sighed out of relief because I couldn't believe I lied to him about the sex not meaning anything. Like seriously I know it meant alot because no one do satisfy me the way he does but I can't say that to his front because he will think I can't live without him I arrived home shortly after because I couldn't find a ride to take me back to my destination which I had to wait for some minutes before getting a ride. I walked inside the house but everywhere is quiet which only means they're tired and sleeping or no one is at home which wouldn't have been possible seeing the door to the house is open. I didn't bother myself because I knew everyone was safe when I walked straight to my room. I opened the door but couldn't see clearly seeing the light turned off. I guess Jackie did that or mum, because those are the two people who always have the energy and time to do such things. I flick on the light but stay rooted in my position becaus
"Son you know you can't get everything without a wife" mother said which I don't know why she's suffering herself over the will that am not interested in "But mom I have no girlfriend nor a fiance and you're talking about a wife. How is that possible?" I questioned not understanding her "We need someone to pretend to be your wife and get the will that's all after everything you both go on your way no string attached" she simply stated "In exchange of what?" I asked because every girl I know will asked for something in returned "I will think about that later" "Mom I hope you won't regret it later" I warned "Don't worry I need someone from poor background or a girl from the slum" "Mom" I shouted irritably. I just don't understand how mother think sometimes "Okay forget that part but we need to look for a way out" "Have heard you i will think about it but I have some works to do" "Be fast about it or I take things into my hand" "Don't worry bye" I said tired of the topic alrea
Scarlet POVGraduating from the best University with first class it's not all that matters. What matters most is to have the power to get work after school.When you have the wealth and connections you can get a work even with lower class or even without graduating but here I am with good result but no one to help with work It's been like forever since I graduated from Sorbonne University France but I haven't smell anything close to work because whenever I get the opportunity to be employed someone from the high will bring his son daughter niece or cousin which always jeopardize the whole thing which I have to start from the scratch again Tired of sitting idly at home I decided to go into the city. Maybe luck might be by my side today. I dressed up and walked out where I saw my mother father and brother working "Good morning" I said generally "Where are you going early this morning?" My mother asked just the best way to reply to my greetings"Let her be pleased" my dad chipped in"
Zion PovBirds chirping always sound like music to me every morning because I love the way it is always fresh and calming before the morning sunlight. I picked up the remote and opened the curtain so that I could inhale the morning breeze before the sunlight came out. I sat up and began doing push ups for a few minutes before I walked into the bathroom to freshen up and go to work. I'm not the type to waste her time so I finished on time and walked out to see my grandma already on the dining table "Good morning grandma" I greeted her smiling at her "Good morning grandson" she replies "how was your night?""Splendid""Good to hear that" she said before pressing the intercom for the maids to begin the serving. We ate quietly through the breakfast which I'm glad because I hardly eat quietly like this with grandma on the table because she has one thing or the other to say. About to take my last bit when she cleared her throat which I know she's about yo say something so I looked up at
Scarlet Pov I followed Jackie inside because she's the only one to take me out of this mess right now so I decided to go for the blind date "how much are you paying me?" I asked her going straight to the point she smiled which I wished I could just smash her on the face so the smile will just vanish but I don't think that's a good idea"Well well that's my favorite person talking. Don't worry i'm giving you blank cheque and you will write the amount you want" she said smiling sheepishly which I just pouted "You know I don't want too many people knowing my face. I just hope I shouldn't meet one of the guys have fucked" I blurt out"Ehw can you please not go there? I wonder why you're shameless sometimes?" Jackie question "Well maybe because I'm horny right now because my core is itching for release""Goodnight" Jackie said lying on the bed which I laughed wondering how we became friends because we aren't from the same class. ***I wake up early in the morning before walking out t
Scarlet Pov I walked inside and saw everyone busy with work "I'm home" I announced to no one in particular "How was your first day at work?" Mom asked stopping what's she's doing"Nothing much so yes it was fine" I replied going to the dinning to take some water"That's good to hear" father chip in"I have never for once asked how my delivery was" Abraham complained "is it that I am not noticed in this house or what?" He said glaring at me which I shrug"Well we don't asked because you spend more than anyone so no need" mother deadpan "But" he tried to say "Say another word and trust me you will be grounded throughout the week" mother said seriously which Abraham knows better not to try her because she will make sure his grounded which he doesn't like staying at home"Let's eat" I said to no one in particular. They all sat on the table, Jackie sitting close to me while we ate in silence. Done eating I pack the dishes to the sink before cleaning my hand "have paid Mr Frank money"
