Janet trying to hide her smile. "Not like this, you will go take a shower, I will apply one of those under eye golden thingies Bibiana love so much, then you will eat the food I brought. After that, I will give you the full gist"Tokunbo looked at her clever friend with a sad smile while shaking her head. "Okay you win".Sigh. Bibiana gave Janet a thumbs up as Tokunbo made her way to the bathroom.The three girls made their way to the kitchen to warm up the food. "Dee I almost had a heart attack in your stead as she said she won. But i later realized she said it to make Toks come out of her miserable state""I was shocked too I won't lie. But I know Janet can't beat me. So I calmed myself"Bibiana looked at Janet "Janet better come up with a good story to tell her o. If not she will throw tantrums ehn!"Janet smiling said "who told you I have to cook up stories? I am confident that I have won.

Chapter 11 Meet Me
Janet was thinking of just getting a cab. As it will be a bit troublesome to enter regular transportation from Bibiana's house to her house. But Danielle insisted that she will go drop her off. Janet was refusing profusely because she knew that at this time of the day, weekend or not the traffic will still be hectic and annoying. It will take Danielle hours to and from her house. She will definitely get home late.So at the end, after a lot of back and forth, they both agreed that Danielle will drive them to her house which is not far. Then she will assign one of the drivers to go drop off Janet and then bring the car back. Settled, they left Bibiana's apartment building together.Danielle was curious about the whole chat thing, so she couldn't help but ask Janet about it.Janet looked at Danielle with amusement in her eyes "Dee curiosity kills the cat, there wasn't really anything serious in the chats, it's just about the weekend, work and life in general, a bit about politics, the e

Chapter 12 He Kissed Me
Janet was shaken by his question. Her heart was beating too fast and she doesn't know what to say. She looked at his lips and then his eyes. Her heartbeat is erratic at this point. She swallowed her saliva nervously."It's okay to say No, you know""I....uhmmm...I ..mean..."Jayden looks into her eyes, he is shocked that at her age, she is so flustered by him asking if he could kiss her. It did something to him that he can't quite understand. He bent his head further."Can I""Hmmm"Jayden smiled so deeply, she saw his dimples fully and her head was mush. He bent his head and claimed her lips. The kiss was gentle, slow, almost like he is tasting her and allowing her to get used to his mouth on hers. He kissed her lower lips and then upper lips, he heard her gasp and was about to deepen the kiss when he heard."Boss, oh my, I am so sorry..." And he looks up, to just hear footsteps of one of the employees almost running away from the scene.Janet felt as if someone just woke her up, she

Chapter 13 I Won
"Oh come on, I know you have been chatting and calling my friend. Give a sister a chance here please""Just for today, and we will see where it goes?""What do you say?""It's not fair that you didn't even want to give me a chance at all, knowing about the bet and all that""Pretty please" *puppy eyes emoji*Danielle noticed that even though the messages were sent, it wasn't delivered.She couldn't believe that she is fawning over a man this much. She is not used to it. Men are always attracted to her, Jayden is the first to say no to her. And even though she is anonymous right now, he is still shading her.Danielle was thinking out loud "Did he turn off his phone? Or blocked me? Nah! If he blocked me, I wouldn't even be able to send him messages. That means I still have a chance. I will wait till tomorrow and call him"After she made her decision, she turned on the smart TV in her room to watch a few episodes of her favourite heist series. And dozed off half way.Jayden woke up and w

Chapter 14 Deji is a Womanizer
Jayden got to the office around 9:40am, as he walked in, all the employees greeted him respectfully as he made his way upstairs to his office. His secretary greeted him and followed him inside as she read his itinerary for the day.When she was done, Jayden cancelled some appointments and rescheduled others. Then he asked her if any of his friends came to the office this morning."Sorry sir, I almost forgot, Mr Deji is waiting in the VIP lounge, he got here about 10 minutes ago"Jayden wasn't surprised "Okay, bring my coffee to the lounge""Yes sir"Jayden made his way to the lounge, that also serves as awaiting area for important clients. The VIP lounge is not far from his office. Close enough to create a sense of importance for the clients but far enough to seclude the clients from the happenings within the company while they wait.He opened the door and stepped in "Deji, you even got here before me today? Are you planning to acquire my company or something?"Deji shaking his head a

Chapter 15 Hooked
"What?"David still speechless. "..."Deji started laughing "Oh boy. This Janet girl don hook you. You are hooked my man""Why did you say that?" Jayden raised his brow."Did you see yourself while chatting with her?""Do I look like a wizard to you?"David now back to his senses "Omoh!""You guys need to speak up"Deji "If I wasn't left speechless I would have made a video so you can watch it yourself"David "Jay, you are hooked, line and sinker"Deji "You were smiling and chuckling like a teenager. Just to ask for a picture?"Jayden couldn't believe his friends will annoy him over his smiles. "Oya Deji, come and be going""I am not going anywhere. This soup too sweet. I want all the recipe"David "Jayden, I think you are in love""What do you mean I am in..." He was cut off by the notification on his phone. He opened the picture. "Wow, she sure is pretty"Forgetting about their initial reaction to Jayden's affectionate looks and body language. "Let me see...""Show us..."Jayden amu

Thanks for yesterday"Sent!Janet opened the picture on his profile, zoomed it and smiled. It was a casual picture taken of him on a beach. He was all smiles. Although it wasn't a portrait picture, he cropped it to look like one. He was wearing a baby blue T shirt which was puffed up from the wind. He had a sunglass hanging on his forehead. His dimples were on full display and Janet is finding it hard to believe what Danielle said about his temperament. He doesn'
