CHAPTER 8

　　KAREN P.O.V

　　“I’m very sorry” he said moving back in fright. “Sorry?” I asked and he nod his head.

　　“You’re greedy you know?” I asked and placed my leg on his center table.

　　“I am sorry I don’t have choice, the money she offered me is huge” He replied giving me his puppy eyes.

　　“Mr your eyes won’t help you” I said looking at the time, I moved closer to him and kick him hard on his head.

　　He hold his head in pain and I hit the flower vase on his head before walking out of the house.

　　I am running late already, I brought out my phone and dial the cab man that gave me his number earlier, because it’s hard to get taxi here by this time.

　　“Hello who am I speaking with?” He asked from the other end of the call.

　　“It’s the lady you gave your card some minutes ago” I replied.

　　“Oh Ms how may I help you?” He asked. “Can you kindly come pick me up?” I asked.

　　“Sure I am still in that area, I’ll be there in some minutes time” he replied and I end the call.

　　“Ms hop in” The cab man said and parked the car at my front.

　　“Thanks Mr Henry” I replied. “You’re welcome, you’re Lucky I was about to leave this area” he replied.

　　“Oh lucky me” I replied with a smile.

　　“So can you kindly tell me what your name is?” Henry asked with a smile. “I am Karen, I don’t need to ask for your name because I have ready saw it on the card you gave me earlier” I said and he smiled.

　　“Can you tell me why you’re crying yesterday?” He asked.

　　“I lost my Job” I replied. “Oh so sad, I am very sorry” he replied.

　　“Oh I have gotten over it” I replied and he smiled. “You’re strong” he said. “I know thanks” I replied.

　　“We are there, should I come to pick you up later?” He asked.

　　“Nevermind, I don’t wanna disturb you” I replied.

　　“You aren’t disturbing me, call me when you’re done” Henry said.

　　“Alright thanks very much” I replied and wave my hand at him before walking inside the restaurant.

　　“Why did you come late?, You kept me here since some hour ago” Luna asked with a frown. “Can you kindly go straight to the reason why I am here?” I asked.

　　“You’re rude, can’t you speak with me with respect” she replied and I scoffed loudly.

　　“You have already lost the respect I have for you, so can you kindly go straight to the point?” I asked.

　　“Your work is to seduce my fiance, I’ll help you get a job in his office as his secretary” she said and I smile.

　　Wow I’ll be chance to do the work I went to school for, is it not wonderful?. “I’ll give you two months, just two months to seduce him and make him fall in love with you, you’ll vacant this country after the two months, don’t worry I’ll take care of everything, you can go there with the taxi driver you’re dating” she said smiling sheepishly.

　　This girl is dàft, how can you tell your fellow woman to make your fiance fall, it’s just as if I am dreaming, and I heard her fiance is also popular like her.

　　“Excuse me! Which taxi driver?” I asked. “You thought I don’t see how you’re playing love with the cab man that brought you?” She asked.

　　“Oh just tell me you’re Jèàlóûs, since you don’t have that can’t of sweet relationship” I replied.

　　“How dare you insult me!?” She yelled and her palm landed on my cheek the next minute.

　　I smile and rub my hand on my cheek, I guess it’s time for her to pay for making me lose my Job.

　　I moved closer to her with a smirk playing on my lips and the next minute I removed her face mask and she gasp. I look into her eyes before giving her what she deserves, which is two slaps and his guards rushed to our side.

　　“Are you guys coming to bèat me up?” I asked with a smile.

　　“You guys should let her be” she said with a smile and put back her mask. “You should have release your dog to bèat me up” I said with a smile.

　　“You’ll resume work tomorrow, I’ll send you the office address this night, but you will pay dearly for slapping me with that thing you called a hand” she said and walked away with her guards.

　　How I wish she didn’t come with her guards I would have dragged her with her hair, but the pain I’ll cause her will be more than bèating her.

　　I think I’ll rent another house with the money I took from Mr Logan and I’ll also get some groceries with it.

　　Wait! I forget to ask her if she’s going to pay me for working as a secretary. I’ll ask her later, time to shop.

　　AUTHORESS P.O.V

　　“Hey Derrick!” Someone said and hit his hand on the table and Derrick jerk up immediately. “What happened to you? What are you thinking about?” The person asked.

　　“Romeo, when did you get here?” Derrick asked with a frown.

　　“What did you heard? Hope all is well?” Romeo asked.

　　“She’s going to seduce someone fiance” Derrick replied.

　　“And what’s your own problem with that?” Romeo asked.

　　“I told you I love her right? Her mum was even telling her to go ahead and fall in love with the guy” Derrick said and Romeo burst into laughter.

　　“What’s funny?” Derrick asked with a frown. “I told you to confess your feelings to her but you refused” Romeo Said.

　　“But I thought by now, She would have known that I am in love with her” Derrick said.

　　“What’s she? A wîtch or vampire that read mind?” Romeo asked.

　　“What did you think I should do?” Derrick asked.

　　“Confess your feeling to her, don’t dîè in silent” Romeo Said. “No I don’t wanna be selfîsh, I want her to concentrate in seducing Mr perfect” Derrick replied.

　　“Mum when did you start employing workers?” Jayden asked.
