chapter four

He walked out of his car and headed towards them.Everyone knew he was cold-hearted, so they all stepped back. He went straight to Maya and held her hand so tightly.

She tried losing her grip, but it was already late as he was stronger than her.He pulled her to his car and asked her to get into the car.She hesitated but eventually gave in.

He equally got into the back seat and pulled up a pack of cigarettes. He took a lighter from his guard and lit a cigarette.He started smoking, and the smoke began to fill the whole car.Maya coughed vigorously as he asked her if she wanted some

"I don't smoke."She said,

"That's good because I don't like girls that smoke."

"Why did you then want to give me some if you don't like girls that smoke? "

Maya asked with a form of rising anger on her face.

"Just wanted to test you."

He said while looking outside the window.

"I came to your rescue today because my mum said she sent you to come for some documents and you were delayed.

She then insisted I come and check up on you.So, where are the documents?"

He asked in a cold voice.

"I was not able to get them because they didn't allow me into the office. "

She said

He gave her a grind, then said.

Turn the car back to the office. he commanded

When they arrived, he asked her to go for the documents by herself because she was the one being sent, not him.She got down with pain in her eyes.

Walked up to the guard and told him she was coming for the documents. Upon seeing Ray’s car, he asked her to go in for it.When she got in,

Employees stood and waited for their elevators but because she was in a hurry she decided to talk about the empty elevators which no one dared to use.She got all eyes on her but she didn't really pay attention to it.

She got to the second floor, where the manager saw her coming out of the elevator, and she became furious.

"Are you not the same lady they stopped from getting in?

How dare you use the CEO's private elevator. and how did you even manage to get in her?"

she asked,

"The guard let me in."

Maya said,

"I'll fire him from his post as he allows people like you to get into this office."

She shouted.

"Get out from here."

No maya said,

I came to get Mrs Lynx documents from her office.

"How dare you speak back to me and even use Mrs Lynx name without any respect.

Do you know who I am?"

Said the manager.

She then raised her hand and slapped Maya on the check. Maya held her check in pain as she slapped the manager in return.Ray upon hearing what was happening, he decided to go check what was happening.

When he got into the office and found out the manager had slapped Maya, he was about to react to her behaviour when he heard she had slapped her back.

He became angry with Maya and asked her why she was causing chaos in the office.

In shock and with teary eyes, she became speechless.

He then asked her to go get the documents and bring them over.People started murmuring as they found out maya was really there to take the documents, but when Ray stared at them, they all became quiet. He then turned and left.

Upon reaching the elevator, he told maya she had just 10 minutes to be back if not that she should be ready to walk back home.Maya then walked to the office, got the documents and went back to the car.She opened the car and got in but refused to speak to him on the way back home.He turned to face the window as he kept on smoking his cigarettes.Her eyes filled with tires and her heart filled with pain she didn't believe she was going to spend the rest of her life with such a cold person.When the car pulled over, she got down and wiped her tires.She then walked to the front door and unturned the knob.

"Maya, where you able to get my documents,"

Asked Mrs Lynx

"yesmommy."Maya said,

" Okay, this is my God daughter Maxxy Mills, whom I told you would be coming with Ray from the United States of America.

Maxxy, this is Maya, my daughter in law and Ray's wife."

"Nice to meet you. Maya"

"Thank you,"

"Nice to meet you."

Maya said with a warm smile.

Ray then enters the house

"Ray, come here."

Mrs Lynx said, taking his hand.

Have a seat.

"Go in there and pack our clothes.

Don't forget to add Maya’s own because you guys are moving out of here to stay at the house near the sea side.

Your dad and I don't want to meddle in your marriage life, so we decided you move to stay there with Maya. "

"Okay, mum,"

Ray said with a deep voice.

"So go and start packing."

Mrs Lynx said with a smile.

Ray got up and went into his room.

He called in some maids to pack the clothes out as he watched them.

"Get the bags out after you are done with the parking."

"Okay, sir,"

They said as they dragged the bags out.

He lay on the bed for some time and pulled a picture out of his pocket. He stirred at it for some time. I won't stop looking for you and I will get married to you when I find you.

He said as he held the picture of the girl who saved him from bullies when they were little. He secretly took a picture of her. Anticipating to meet her one day because he had promised himself he would get married to her when he grew up.He kept the picture back into his packet and went downstairs to meet his mother.

"Mom, we are done."

He said,

"Maya is a very good and nice girl. Treat her well.

If you don't, you will have me content with what she said in a firm voice while poking his shoulder."

"Okay, mum. "

He said.

"Maya, give me a hug.

If he misbehaves with you, just inform me.I will teach him a very deep lesson.

Okay, mom.".

You guys should leave. It's getting late.

Okay, mom, goodbye. "

Said Maya and Ray

Goodbye.

Said Mrs Lynx
