Amanda called Mirabel on phone. She told her about the call she received from Elvis. Mirabel asked her whether she really wants to go out with Elvis. Amanda informed her that it is just lunch and nothing more.
"Girlfriend, I have known you for many years. You have refused to go out with any man. I could remember vividly, when Oscar begged you to have a lunch with him but you refused. You gave him all the excuses in this world. You have turned down countless number of men that came your way and your reason was that you were not ready for any relationship. Now, you are the one telling me about Elvis and you are even happy about having a lunch with him. Darling, tell me the truth. Are you in love?" Mirabel asked over the phone.
Amanda blushed and did not hesitate to deny. " Mirabel, how can you ask me such? I know Elvis is good looking, tall and humble but I am not in love with him. I don't even know much about him but he told me that I should look for a restaurant he can afford because he is not rich. I also know that he has a motorcycle that is not new but believe me, you will like him when you see him."
" I said it. My girlfriend is in love. She is already admiring the man, yet she is denying of loving him . Talking about being poor, are you sure you can cope with a poor man? Well, all I have to tell you is to be careful. Do not be carried away, you know this is the first man you are going out to have a lunch with. Don't forget to dress gorgeously. I have been thinking, how can a man who wants to have a lunch with you tell you on phone that he is poor before the date itself? I think something is wrong. I don't think he is poor because a poor man who wants to have something to do with a woman, will talk about his financial status after meeting the woman or during the lunch time." Mirabel concluded.
" I don't think he is rich but there is this superior aura whenever he speaks. A rich man, can not have such motorcycle but I don't care whether he rides an old motorcycle. I will have a lunch with him. Girlfriend, I have to go now. Bye."
Amanda dropped the call before Mirabel could respond to her last statement.
Amanda later called Elvis and informed him about the restaurant she has chosen. Elvis told her that he heard that their food is expensive but Amanda told him that Relaz restaurant is the least expensive.
Elvis told his men about his date and he told them that they should pay the restaurant so that only him and his men who will pretend not to know him will use the restaurant, so that no one will recognize him. His men did as he instructed.
Elvis arrived at the restaurant with his motorcycle. Amanda arrived almost immediately. Elvis men and few female workers pretended not to know him while dinning in the same restaurant.
" How are you, Amanda? Please, Make your order." Elvis said. Amanda made an order after going through the menu. Elvis also made his order but he ordered the cheapest food on the menu. Amanda frowned and said " Elvis, are you ordering that because you do not have sufficient money to pay for our food? Don't worry, Order for anything you want I will settle the bills.
Elvis smiled and thanked her but inwardly he was saying that if Amanda knew his worth she wouldn't have mentioned' insufficient money', but he was so happy that at least he has seen someone who does not know his worth but was willing to have a lunch with him and even pay for it.
Elvis cleared his throat and began, "Amanda, I like the way you smile. The truth is that you stole my heart that very day we bumped into each other. I like you already. I don't know how you will feel if I ask you to be my woman. Do not misunderstand me. I know this is our first lunch date, but I want you to know that I do not have any bad intention towards you. Please, give us a chance and I promise you that you will not regret it. I promise to always make you happy. Please, I meant every word I am saying to you. Other women will envy you. I am a man of little words. I don't talk much but whatever I say, that I always do."Amanda couldn't believe that Elvis is asking her to date him and this is going to be her first date, if she agrees to it. She blushed and looked at Elvis's handsome face, " Elvis, please can you give me time to think about that? I will definitely tell you whether I will date you or not."Elvis looked at Amanda. He was worrie
After lunch, Amanda was about leaving, when Elvis offered to take her back to the office with his motorcycle, but Amanda declined. Elvis asked her whether she was ashamed of his motorcycle. Amanda said she is not ashamed of his motorcycle. Amanda insisted on taking a taxi because she didn't come with her own car as a result of Tricia's refusal to give her back her car key for some days.Amanda was waiting for a taxi, when Elvis quickly sent a text to his driver to drop Amanda at the office.Elvis joined Amanda at the place she was waiting for a taxi, under the pretence that he wants to keep her company until a taxi comes. They were still standing there when a beautiful black range Rover of the latest model pulled over.The man in the range Rover who was wearing a black suit came out and pretending to be a friend of Elvis, whom he has not seen for a very long time, exclaimed, " wow! Elvis, where have you been? It's been a long time.Elvis pretending
Amanda called Mirabel before the closure of work and informed her that she will be coming to her place after work.Mirabel told her that she can't wait to hear how her outing with Elvis went. After work, Amanda went to Mirabel's place to tell her about her lunch with Elvis.Amanda told Mirabel, how Elvis asked her to be his woman. She went further to explain, how he promised not to break her heart and how he will make other women to be jealous of her. Amanda told her how a stranger paid their bills. She also told Mirabel, how a friend of Elvis admired her which made Elvis jealous and angry. She continued, "I do not know why Elvis was jealous. We are not yet lovers and he is jealous already. I think he is a jealous type and I really have to be careful ."Mirabel who was paying attention to all Amanda has been saying was all smiles. She knew that Amanda has fallen in love. She asked, " Now that Elvis is asking you to date him, what is going to be your resp
Amanda was lost in thought. She was wondering who was on the phone with Mandy, her mother. She couldn't believe that her mother was crying and begging the person on the phone. She was thinking that, whatever that was making her mother cry on the phone, must be a strong thing. She doesn't know how to approach Mandy to open up to her, because she is always hostile to her.Amanda decided against going to ask her mother, Mandy what the problem was and who was on the phone. She knew that Mandy will insult her, therefore she made up her mind to mind her own business.Amanda was really so happy that her dad will be returning the next day. She decided to call her father. She informed him that, he should get something for her when coming back. Kris asked his daughter, Amanda to mention anything she wants. Amanda told her father that he can buy anything of his choice for her.She went further to tell him that, she doesn't want him to spend much, if not, she would have
The next day, members of Williams family were preparing to welcome Kris home. Amanda wanted to go to the airport to pick his father but Tricia insisted on going. Her purpose of going alone is to ask his father some questions relating relationship with the family.When she saw her father, she walked towards where her father was standing and gave him a hug. "Welcome father" Tricia greeted. Kris replied, "Thank you." Kris looked around and he was surprised that Tricia came alone, without Amanda.Kris knew how much his daughter, Amanda loves coming to welcome him at the airport. " Where is your sister?" Kris asked while entering the car. " Sorry, I don't understand. Which sister are you talking about, father?"" Tricia, what is wrong with you? Do you have any other sister apart from Amanda? Why is Amanda not with you? She never missed coming to the airport to welcome me. Is everything alright with her?"Tricia who was driving, stopped the car and look a
It was around 3.00 PM, Amanda called Elvis. Elvis who was busy discussing with his Manager on phone about business was still expecting Amanda's call and that was the reason he was not paying much attention to his Manager.When his manager asked him whether he was okay from the way he was sounding, Elvis was about answering him when Amanda's call came, he immediately discharged his manager and informed him that they will discuss later.Elvis who was eager to hear her response was all smiles because he knew that Amanda will give him a positive reply, this is because after Amanda called him last night to say good night, he knew that she will not reject him.Amanda started, " Elvis, I really like you and I am willing to date you but I have conditions attached to it. If you are willing to keep to the conditions then I will date you."Elvis was all smiles when he saw her call and he was so happy when he heard her angelic voice, but his countenance changed immediate
Elvis who was so happy that Amanda has agreed to be his love, called all his men to give them order in respect of his relationship with Amanda. He directed his men to always protect Amanda and that they should do that without Amanda's knowledge. He told them Amanda is his priority and that he doesn't want any harm to come to her. He went further to tell them that Amanda doesn't know that he is wealthy and he doesn't want them to tell her about his status. He directed his first hand informant to always inform him about Amanda, especially anytime she is experiencing any form of difficulty.After the meeting with his men, he called Amanda and told her that he really wants to see her. Amanda told him that she will like him to see her family and therefore they should see in her family house.Elvis didn't expect Amanda to tell him to meet her at her family house.

The next day, Mandy was in the living room with her husband. Kris was telling her that Amanda will be expecting a visitor today, he instructed her to make sure the visitor is well entertained, since he has an important business meeting to attend. They were still discussing when Mandy's phone started ringing. When she checked, she saw that it was Louis, knowing that her husband is with her, she refused to take the call.

Mandy lied that it was her friend that was begging her for a huge sum of money but, she informed her earlier on that she doesn't have such amount of money.Kris believing his wife, told her that since she has earlier informed her friend that she doesn't have the money, maybe she was calling for something else.
