After some time Jhonia sat with mrs. Pinnock in the living room.
"Jhonia, This is the contract. It stood for five years. By then you and my son will be in love with each other. I will destroy this contract between both of you. You can read through it and sign it." Mrs. Pinnock said, handing Jhonia the contract."Well, then I will read through it carefully. After signing it, I will return it to you." Jhonia said to her as she puts the contract aside."If you don't mind. Please read and sign it here then give it back to me, that would be splendid." Mrs. Pinnock said, with a smile."I see. No problem." Jhonia responded to her. Jhonia began with reading the contract. After some time she placed it down on the table before them."I see you have in place that he should not as I should not cheat on each other. I hope that your son will follow the rules of this contract. Your pen please!" Jhonia said, telling she hopes her son follows the rules as well, holding her hand out for the pen."I will be sure to tell him about this specific rule. Here!" Mrs. Pinnock said, handing the pen to her."Hmm." Jhonia responded, taking the pen and signed her name on the contract and hand the contract back to Mrs. Pinnock."I would like to familia myself with the house, if you do not mind?" Jhonia said, telling she wants a tour in other words asking as she gets up."Of course not, please show her to her room, let her shower and come to my room then guide her as she tours herself." Mrs. Pinnock said to her and then told the maid who was standing behind the solo sofa waiting for orders, to show her to her room and show her around in other words."Yes. Mrs. Pinnock please, this way." The maid responded, addressing her then she said, showing Jhonia to the staircase."Please, address me as Ms. Jhonia if that title is really needed. I'm sure Mrs. Pinnock herself wouldn't want to be mistaken by me as her." Jhonia said, turning around from the maid and looking at Mrs. Pinnock with a smile."Address her as she wishes, please proceed." Mrs. Pinnock said, with a smile of approval of what Jhonia to the maid.The maid nodded, and walked off as Jhonia followed. She forgot she had placed her parents journal on the table where she signed the contract. The moment the memory flashes back to her, Mrs. Pinnock was already reaching for the book. Suddenly a hand slammed down on the book out of her fingers.."Please! Mrs. Pinnock, I do not intend to be rude so remember my request number 11. Do not! Touch my things, please!" Jhonia stated her please, and said to Mrs. Pinnock as she pulled the journal away from her hand reach, and raised up."It's very important to me, as it is the only thing I have left of both my parents. As there must be something that you don't let anyone touch because it belongs to your dear husband! So, this must be something that you understand well." Jhonia said to her with sadness in her eyes and then it disappeared, Jhonia reminded her of something she holds dear."I understand! It won't happen again, please go and then meet me in my room since it's your first night. Also, there will be guests here early in the morning so you might not be able to go shopping." Mrs. Pinnock said to her with a smile. That smile fades as she realizes that Jhonia was not even blinking, she quickly stood to her feet and explained herself.."Oh no, please don't take me wrong. See? I went shopping from the base of what your uncle told me. When I receive the call from another woman who also wants her daughter to get married. I placed them into my closet... I want you to come there to check if they fit." Mrs. Pinnock quickly explained herself once again to have her understand."I see, then I will see you in a few." Jhonia said, walking away from her and towards the stairs"She is weird by chance. Someone created the word weird based on someone, that person is exactly like this. Ah.. Not my issue." Jhonia said, talking to herself on Mrs. Pinnocks weirdness, as she continues up the stairs.The maid waited for her and brought her to her room. She took her bath patiently as her bathroom was huge, withholding a shower and bathtub inside. After the shower she went to Mrs. Pinnock 's room."You are here? Come in. Please!" Mrs. Pinnock asks and tells her to enter, taking her arm and pulling her into her closet."This closet is as big as your bedroom, but why?" Jhonia said to her and then asked?"Have you seen your closet? You will have to fill it with all different styles of clothing, from all deterrent kinds of designer clothes." Mrs. Pinnock said, explaining to her as she giggles at Jhonia."Here! These are all the clothes, dresses, pants suits, and of course skirts. Also, these nightwear silks and brazers and panties." Mrs. Pinnock said as he handed her a set of clothes and showed her the rest..She happily hands out her clothing on the maid's arms, she then picks out a dress and places it on Jhonia seeing if it fits. She didn't seem to like the colour so, she tried another one and another. And went on for sometime."Okay, Mrs. Pinnock it's getting late and I haven't toured the house as yet! And you also said, we would have guests coming in the morning. Let me choose myself and check the rest of the house and take a rest." Jhonia said addressing her explaining she is yet to take the tour and that she need rest because of the tomorrow coming guesses while she was smiling at Mrs. Pinnock."Right! Right, go on then. And please set up her clothes into her closet for her." Mrs. Pinnock said to the maid telling them what they should do. They nodded and left first, Jhonia followed up with them shortly.. I really thought I was going to not get along well with her, but she's actually nice. Or maybe she's acting for the good image of her son. If she's not acting! Then she have gain 1.⅙% of my trust and friendship, Jhonia thoughts.She went to her room and got dressed into a set of the nightwear, set and went to the bathroom for her parents' journal. After some time the maid returned to take her around for the house tour, she began engaging the maid into a conversation."What is your name?" Jhonia asked?"Crissian." The maid responded."How long have you been working here, Crissian?" Jhonia asked? As she toured through the house."Ten years. Mrs Pinnock found me when I had just lost my mom, my dad remarried and I couldn't continue school. She helps me with everything and offers me to go to school. I refuse because my dear mother wouldn't be here to celebrate or be proud of me with me. So I choose to work." Crissian responded to her question respectively with honesty, sharing her story briefly."I didn't ask for all these details. But you have shared it with me so, I will also share mine with you. My parents died the night I turned eighteenth and then I decided to not finish school but do something else and now I'm here. This ten years relationship…""Yes. You spoke with Mr. Pinnock, while you were in school, he promised to wait for you like you have requested. I wish I was like your Ms. Jhonia, he waited all this time for you... " Crissian continued to speak.... What the hell? Ten years ago I was ten, what kind of lie is really going on here? He waited for me, while I was in school? But I can't take it back now I have already signed the contract marriage paperwork. Shit, this story has to change. I will speak with Mrs. Pinnock before our guests come, in the morning. Jhonia thought.Kyhe was yet to get his question out as it was forgotten about with other things. The following day Jhonia decided to go by the office knowing Kyhe would not be there until noon.“Hi Jhonia-”“We need to talk!”She stared at Josephine, who lost her smile in an instant with Jhonia’s tone of voice.Jhonia made her way to the conference room where she took a seat at the head of the table. The CEO’s seat only Josephine sits there when having a small meeting with her team. Jhonia on the other hand sat there and that was surprising for Josephine.“I have known you for a long time, Josie, but I never expected this. I know you’re so well, so I’m going to ask you to tell me. Yesterday I asked you to come with me to the after party for whoever won the contract. You refused because you had someone to do dirty work, or did you have something else more important to do?”Josephine kept silent because she kne
Nearce was not happy that Sky received the contract, but he was too calm about it in Kaylia's eyes. While to others he is a businessman who accepts that his company was not chosen. Even with a smile on his face he congratulated Kyhe for his hard work and great achievement.He left the building, but he did not leave the location. Time passed and people were leaving. He was notified of the after party at another location. He thought Jhonia would be there and so he decided to go.Later that evening.Jhonia and the girls met up, they were all celebrating how good she is becoming more and more beautiful. She smiles now that she has Kyhe in her life.“That reminds me, I haven’t seen Kuwain in a while. It’s like he disappears.” Jhonia spoke of Kuwain for she hadn’t seen him and that she never asked to know why.“That’s because he is being the CEO of High View. Apparently, Mr. Knight had him brought in disguise for his cousi
Hours later.Alshane had taken the seat between Nearce and Kyhe, to signify he would be the one handling the contract. Mrs. Maniak didn’t want to show herself just yet for it would upset Jhonia.She would not want to see Kyhe walk away from what she would be asking of him, so it would be best to lay low until the public side of the contracts were signed by both parties.“Why is it like this thought?” Kaylia asked, referring to Nearce, but his eyes were stuck on Jhonia the whole time he heard not a word Kaylia spoke out.Jhonia, who was walking around and doing the necessary things needed on their hand, she was now finished with and began looking for Kyhe who should be seated but was not there.“Looking for me, my love?” His words startled her, she twirls around into his arms.“Please, be careful and be sure not to hurt yourself. I have finished with the other stuff. So, can now come and take your seat next to me where
The day off the contract signing decision. The place of the event was already picked and announced.It was like a celebrity came tethering with all the news teams and cameras about.Jhonia hesitated to leave Kyhe’s car after seeing the cameras etc. At that moment, Kyhe held her hand with a gentle squeeze. She glances up at him and returns the smile.“I know you’re a bit, because of the cameras but I’m sure it’s fine, trust me.” He said to her with surety that she wouldn’t have to panic or anything of the sort. She sighed softly and proceeded to exit the car.She went towards the entrance of the building with Kyhe a few steps behind. While on his phone he bumped into her and came to notice she was staring instead of continuing towards the building.“What is the matter?” He asked her.“Are you alright?” he asked with concern.“Jhoni-”“I knew it. But for sure I t
“Ugh. I thought it would never stop.” She groaned then said looking down at him.Kyhe glanced up at her. Jhonia wears a brown leather skirt above her knees. A split exposing her thigh, a black top barely hiding her breath. He was drooling over her but seeing her like this made him feel like she has two personalities.“How could you?” he yelled, asking her with a serious face.Jhonia walked closer to him with a smile. Her light touch of make-up makes her face sparkle. His nose was bleeding again.“Not again Kyhe. If you can handle me naked, you-”“So, it was you.” Azerjie said, cutting her off.“Huh?” Kyhe asked in surprise, looking at Azerjie.“I asked her if she was the one making you all glowy happy, but she pretended like it wasn’t her. And it’s not like he can’t handle you naked. It’s because you look different, sex appealing, and he can’t touch beca
“I thought you said revenge wasn’t your thing.” Josephine said to Jhonia, who looked up at her at that instance.“It’s not. At least not for me. Josephine, my friends are now involved. Nearce is going out of his way to make sure their husbands fall. These girls already had a hard life while others are having it easy-”“You too had a hard life Jhonia. You almost died. But how many time does someone need to go at you or how many hurt do you have to go through-”“That’s enough. I expected better from you Josephine. Are you not her friend too? Would you rather she watches you get hurt and fallen apart than help you?”Kyhe intervened between them as he realized what Josephine was doing. Even after Jhonia telling her that she is willing to be revengeful for Nearce is doing this to hurt her by hurting her friends.Jhonia's attention turned to Kyhe when he asked his question. And in that moment, she r
