Craig walks into the living room to give Gregory a report, seeing the two together, he wants to go back but he stops. "Yes, anything, if it will make you happy."
"I want to go to the club, will you take me there?" His eyes bulge out. "You promised to do anything that would make me happy?" Craig looks in shock, Women are trouble, how can she use his own words to blackmail him? "I will if that will make you happy." Craig's laptop almost fell from his hand. "Thanks, you are a darling, I will just go and bathe." "Whenever you want to go, just let me know." "I want to go tonight." Gregory closed his eyes, she ran into the bathroom, and he sighed in frustration. "Do you want to do that?" "What do you expect me to do?" "You don't have to hurt yourself to please her.' "You told me to break those rules for her, here I am breaking one of my rules." "Boss!" He looks at Craig, he gives up. "Here is the file of the chocolate factory that wants us to invest in their company." "Alright, how did you see the shipping steel?" "It's okay, you have meetings with the board of directors later in the evening tomorrow." "Cancel""What?" "Yes, I can't leave her alone in this state." "What was I to tell them?" "Tell them you find love and cancel.""But...""What is it? You are my assistant so you know what to do." ****He gave up, Whitney came out with her wears which smelled of alcohol, Craig's face looked disgusted, he was easily irritated but Gregory's was worse, Gregory burped, and the food in his stomach was all on the floor, Craig's next attempt was to head to the room. "Wait! What is going on?" "Your wears." He said running into his room, Whitney sighed and went in to change, she had no choice but to wear the shirt given to her by Gregory, Although it was a bit short she had no choice, the mess that Gregory had made because of her need to be clear. "Don't bother, someone will clean it up, Maybe we should go back to the room." She just nodded, in a few minutes, the room was back in shape, and some wear had been delivered to her. "Whoa! That was fast." 'Yes, you have some new wear." "What? Thanks a million." "Don't thank me, you should give the credit to that man." He points to Craig. "Oh! Thanks, I appreciate it.""Don't bother, it's the boss..." Gregory glared at him. "Excuse me.""Are you going to ride? Cathy said you ride fast." Gregory looks at Craig. "Hey she didn't get injured, it's just a little collision." He finds himself explaining to Gregory. Hd wants to get mad at Craig but this is his special cousin that he can't get mad at, Whitney is not interested in what they are saying. "If you want to go on a ride, I will go with you, I like to ride fast, my late dad used to have a motorcycle, I ride on it fast, it is I, that made Cathy like fast ride.""You can't ride with him." "Why? I want to see him ride." "Don't you get it, I said I won't allow it." He is using his authority on her. 'I thought you said you would do anything to make me happy." Gregory gasped for air. "Sure, that is if Craig is going on a ride.' Now he expects Craig to save the situation. ''Actually, I am not going on a ride, I just wanted to leave you alone, I will go down and walk around.'"Alright, next time then."'Sure thing, I go on now."******Craig did not get the opportunity to get his keys, the key was lying right in front of her, he just walked into the elevator, he was dying to see Cathy's face again, he boarded a cab, when he got there, still thinking of what he is going to say that brought him back, he saw Cathy walking towards the road but someone had to stop her. "What is wrong with you? My Shabby princess." The ghetto king is standing right in front of her. "Stop calling me shabby princess, I am not your girlfriend." "Slow down! You should know I love you." He touched her shoulder, Craig was watching."Get your hands off me." Everyone is scared of the ghetto king except George, he rapes girls even during daylight no one challenges him, and girls can only walk freely when George is around, he knows that George is not around and he had a thing for Cathy, so he wants to use the opportunity. "Baby! Cute things don't get upset.""What is it now?" "Where is George?" "Is not your business where my brother is." "I heard he is far away looking for money, he left his jewel in a wolf pack." "Get off my face, Mr."Cathy was about to leave when he pulled her by the hand. "Why are you troublesome?" People were watching but none said a word, he wanted to kiss her, Craig's eyes widened, and he got out of the cab in a hurry, she slapped him but that didn't stop the ghetto king, he grabbed her waist. "Let go of her." Craig's voice sounds so commanding, that everyone watching can sense he is not from there, they just feel sorry for him. "Oh! Rich kids, you want to buy her freedom?" "Yes, how much do you want?" "Really? You have money, fine, let's have a deal." Cathy closed her eyes, and she saw trouble everywhere, The ghetto king whistled and ten boys came out from nowhere. "What is going on here?" One of the boys asked. "Please, you have to leave now, I can take care of myself." "I am not leaving without you." "You don't get it, just leave he will not hurt me." "I am not leaving without you.""The rich kid is here to buy her freedom. he said he wants to fight?""I never did say I wanted to fight, I only said I would buy her freedom." "You still have the boldness to speak." Another said, throwing a punch in his face, it met the side of his lips. "Do you still want to fight or we should get the girl?" The Ghetto king wants to touch Cathy. "You won't dare." "Why are you stubborn? Leave I will be fine." Another raised a punch to hit him, and Craig held his hand in space. "Step aside." He said in a low voice, she closed her eyes in fear, and he twisted his hand and pushed him. He staggered back hitting another he bent and two of the boys hit each other, he hit one by the jaw, sending him to the floor, he got two and hit their heads together, one was about to attack him but he hit him on the stomach, seeing what had happened to the others, the last boy develops cold feet, he falls to the ground. "Please, don't..." "Get off my way," he ran from Craig like a frightening cat,
"Come on, let's go, you are driving like a snail and, we are finally here, you are standing, do you want it to close?" He closed his eyes. "Do you want to go in? I should ask you that, if you don't want to go, you should as well leave." Gregory gasped for air. "I didn't say so, I am just asking." "Don't ask to go home, I can care for myself." She darted inside, and Gregory darted after her, he felt like a stranger in his body, he hated himself but what could he do, her happiness was his joy. "Welcome Sir and Ma to the VIP section, what can we serve you?" "Pomegranate." "At your service sir." In a blink he is back with it, she slips on it and her face turns sour. "What is it?" "Why did you ask them to get me fruit juice?" "Don't you like it?" "Who goes to a club and drinks juice? I want alcohol." Gregory closes his eyes to suppress his anger, he has no patience for women but Whitney is special to him. "You want alcohol?" She nodded, "Don't worry I will get it for you
The night is almost gone, so they just work all through the early mornings, when it's six, Gregory and Craig, have already groomed to go meet with an investor, and Whitney walks in on them. "Are you going out?" "Yes, we have an investor to meet this morning, there is food in the dining.""I can't stay alone in this place." "Don't worry, there is security down outside and Mr. Beck will be checking on you from time to time." "I will go with you." "But...""It will not take long I will be out." Gregory hadn't replied to her, so she hurried inside, Craig looked at Gregory, they wanted to leave before she came out. "I am out already, I am fast right?" Gregory nodded, she rushed into the kitchen, she just got some pack. "Let me pack the food so you can eat on our way." They both watch as she packs the food in a hurry. "Shall we?" "Let me help you carry it." Whitney was surprised when Craig offered to help her, she was a bit scared of Craig but he looked simple. "Thank you." Ian drive
"You even said you are my driver but that didn't change her mind." Ian laughed. "You shouldn't be laughing with this man, he wants to take your job." "If Whitney didn't save me, I would have been a dead man and this boss of mine doesn't want to help""Why should I help you when you are taking my friend away from me?" "You Know that is not true, no one can replace you in my heart." Whitney drags Gregory's chin. "Is there still food?" Craig asked. "Sure, you can have it." Whitney hand him the food. "you are a princess" "Call me Princess again?" "Don't worry, your..." "Craig stop it." He didn't say a word, as he ate, Whitney's mouth fell open when she saw the message from Cathy, she had not been able to go through the message before. "Craig thank you." Gregory and Craig look at each other, if Gregory and Craig didn't understand each other, there would have been issues between them, the way Whitney praised him. "For what?" "Cathy told me how you saved her." "Do she tell you every
"Where is Whitney?" "She left with Gregory, they said they need to get something from your local market." "Oh!" She stands to leave. "Are you leaving me here?" Craig asked, she sit not a word came from Craig to her, he kept looking at her, too many things flashed through his mind, one was to make her his woman and never let any other man come near, he wanted to pull her on his legs right there and now, run his hand all over her body but he can't. "Why are you staring at me like that?" "Ahem!" He clears his throat. "Sorry, I will wait outside." "No, sit, Whitney will feel bad if I let you stand under the sun, because you are, her best friend cousin." He sits, and another long silence goes on. "Do you live abroad?" She had noticed that everything about him looked special, so she felt that he could only live abroad. "No!" "Here at county C in Marvel City?" "No!" "Then where do you live?" "Do you want to go with me?" she shakes her head. "I will be going for my chamber attachme
"Greg, I want more drink." "Here, have a drink." He gave her water, and she tasted it and spat right on Gregory's face. "I need spirit not water." She throws up, and Gregory feels like vomiting as well he runs out of his car and throws up, he is relieved. "God! This is crazy." He drives back to the condominium, Craig is taking care of Cathy, and she throws up on him. "Dammit! What is wrong with you?" He talks to the sleeping Cathy, changing his wears, he pushes her head when he returns, and he also changes Cathy's, he is working on a file when Gregory returns with drunk Whitney, he shakes his head, Gregory puts her to sleep and return to Craig"Why are you here?" "Was I supposed to be in there with her?" Gregory smile. "Why do they have so much pain, their life is..." They heard a sound like something hit the ground. "What was that?" Craig asked him."I don't know, is it not from your room?" Rushing towards the room, Craig pushed Gregory forward, "Go on and open it." Gregory sha
"Hey, you going out?" "Yes, Whitney is inside, she is waiting for you." "Where are you going?" Cathy looks at him, he has the same authority as Craig but he doesn't look hard like Craig. "As in...""I want to see a friend." Gregory stared at her wanting more details of the type of friend. "It's a girl, Grace to be specific." She takes a girl's name but that does not make Gregory's mood change, he had heard a lot about Grace, and he just doesn't want Grace around this little thing his cousin is interested in"Go on, you should be careful." "I will, Whitney is waiting for you." She walks away, and Gregory enters the apartment. "I was about to call you." "I am here now, I saw Cathy going out." "Oh! She is going to meet Grace, I would have gone with her but, I am waiting for you, let me get dressed so we can go to the club." Gregory frowns, and she looks at him. "Do you want to go to the club?" She nodded, he gulped his saliva, and he wiped his face. "You don't want to go?" "When d
"Just say yes." "Are you Okay? Do you have wings or you are a witch that can fly? Wait, who do you want to fly with?" "Is not me, the both of us, Greg, wants us to go with him on a private jet." "I don't want to, I don't want someone looking down on me, like his charity, You can go with him, that way we will save cost." "So I am a burden to you." Whitney pouts, and the next thing tears drop from her eyes. "Did I say something wrong?""I know you will get tired of me because I am wasting your brother's money I am your charity case also." Her tears drop more. "No, that is not what I meant, I just want us to save cost." Whitney's tears keep coming. "Shit! Fine, we two are charity cases, can you stop I am sorry, I didn't mean to offend you." She tries touching Whitney but she pulls away. "Don't touch me.""Stop crying, what do you want me to do to make you stop crying." She didn't look at her. "Anything, I will do it..." Whitney wanted to tell her to come with them but she was call
