Nancy's phone rang again, and she immediately picked up the call, as she was nervous and wondering who was calling her."Hello," she spoke first, as she listened to the voice that spoke to her, "Hi Sophia.. How are you doing?""I'm fine, who am I speaking with, please?" Nancy nervously asked, as she couldn't recognize the male voice, and she knew the person wasn't Henry, as she had seen him not quite long ago."It's me, CEO Jerry, or what do you usually call me?"Nancy gasped, "Oh! I'm sorry," and she immediately apologized, "I didn't know that you're the one.""It's okay. I can understand," CEO Jerry replied, and Nancy said, "Okay.""So what are you up to today, as you know that today is a free day from office work?" CEO Jerry asked her."I'm fine and in my room," Nancy replied."Hmm, okay," CEO Jerry hummed."How about you?" Nancy asked him, and he replied, "I'm at home too, and in my house actually. Do you want to come and visit me?""No.. I mean, I am just asking," Nancy's cheeks i
Mr. Henry stood on his balcony upstairs and frowned when he saw Mr. Tobe arrive, and he overheard their conversation too.He sighed, knowing that he could not tell Nancy the truth that he likes her. He continued to stand on the balcony, watching her walk away and leave through the compound gate.Nancy first went to the dry cleaner's to pick up her clothes, then returned home before heading to the restaurant, by a public bus.Upon arriving at the popular restaurant in the heart of City X, Nancy walked in still dressed in her light blue, sleeveless, long gown. She noticed some heads turning to stare in her direction, but she ignored them.Among those who turned to stare at Nancy was CEO Jerry, who hadn't expected to see her in the restaurant as he sat with his friend.Seeing her walk in like a model and capturing the attention of the single men in the restaurant made him sigh. His blue eyes were fixed on her, but he couldn't invite her over to his table in the private section of the rest
"What's up? What are you ladies all staring at? And where are you all taking Grandma to?" Charles asked them, as they were still standing inside the elevator that the door had long pulled open, and he stepped aside for them to step out, but they still stood in the elevator and stared at him."Brother, you look so hot. Where are you going to?" Allison finally asked him. As she immediately moved away from wheeling Grandma's wheelchair out, but Charles stopped her and said, "Focus on your job first. I have to go upstairs and take my bath.""Grandma, how are you feeling this afternoon?" Charles asked Grandma Madison, and she smiled at him and replied, "I'm good, Charles."Grandma did not usually speak too many words. They finally stepped out of the elevator. While Charles walked in, he automatically pressed the door to shut, and he went up to his bedroom on the second floor.Walter's Villa is a magnificent two-story building mansion. They had an inbuilt elevator in the mansion to easily go
Nancy stared around the restaurant again, that was looking so beautiful. And as she stared at the entrance door, and watching the people that walks in, as the restaurant too had many security men in black guarding every corners of the restaurant.Nancy's eyes fell on the man that walked in. And she felt her breathing seized for a moment, as she continued to stare at him, and she wondered if she was not dreaming.As she could feel her heart beat accelerated so loud in her chest, as the man looked so much like Charles."What's wrong?" Mr. Tobe asked her, as he stared towards the direction that she was staring at.And he could see a lot of customers that walked into the restaurant, but he did not know who among them that Nancy was staring at.Nancy didn't respond to Mr. Tobe's question to her, as she felt the tall black-skinned man resembles Charles, and as she felt him stare towards her direction and meet her eyes.Her cheeks immediately flamed red while she immediately stared downward t
"I'm so sorry about my outburst," Charles apologized to the customers in the restaurant's private section, after attracting their full attention. He met eye contact with CEO Jerry, who stared at him irritably, wondering why a poor man like him was in a section meant for billionaires, the rich, and nobles in City X.Charles wanted to stand up and leave the private section immediately to go downstairs and confirm if the lady Stevo had sent a photo of was there, as he hadn't seen her upon arrival.He was accustomed to visiting the private section of the restaurant and forgotten now that he had to act poor.Despite this, he went to the private section and stared at the waitress who finally served his meal on the table."Here's your order, sir," the smiling waitress said to Charles, dressed in their blue staff uniform."Okay. Thank you, you can leave," Charles dismissed her and immediately texted Stevo,*Are you sure that she's the one?**I don't know, boss. But she looks like your bride. I
"Yes, I'm already going home, sir," Nancy said to CEO Jerry, as she really wanted to leave. CEO Jerry said to her, "I'm also leaving too, as I was on the private floor upstairs with a very good friend of mine who invited me here. And I thought that you said that you live alone and you're single. So who was that guy?"Nancy smiled and stared in the direction that Mr. Tobe had gone. She replied, "He's a delivery agent here. He only decided to introduce me to other lovely meals that the restaurant sells, since I mostly order fried meals.""Hmm, that's alright then, as I had thought he was your boyfriend, as you both look so friendly and smile at each other.""No, hahaha," Nancy laughed, and she could see a lot of guests walking into the restaurant staring at her too.And she immediately said, "I have to go home now. My time here is up, and I need to rest on time.""Surely, Sophia, I'm also going home. So where do you live? Let me drop you off in my car."Nancy looked at CEO Jerry first, a
Charles smiled happily to himself after his phone call with Stevo ended, and he walked up to his bed to sit, as he wasn't interested in whatever his cousins and family had to say either. He was only interested in one thing. And that was his heart's need.Charles took out his phone and stared at the beautiful photo of Nancy that Stevo had captured on camera. He kissed his phone screen again."She's still as pretty as yesterday," Charles said to himself, and he smiled as he continued to admire Nancy's pretty looks. He remembered how he had made sweet love to her weeks before."I just love her, and it's so difficult for all of them to understand that my feelings for her are true."Charles saved her photo to avoid losing it. He finally stripped off his casual clothes to take his bath.*****Nancy arrived home in the evening, all smiles, unaware that she had been followed home. Stevo made sure to contact someone to follow her to her house.The man who had followed Nancy also sat on the bus,
Mr. Henry met Nancy's gaze on him, and he replied, "I am going to church, but I don't mind dropping you off, so you won't have to stress too much carrying your loads out."Nancy thought about her grandma, Khloe Gregory, delaying her. And she replied, "Alright."Nancy got into Mr. Henry's car, and he finally drove out from their house.She relaxed her back in the car, and she stared at the road, and soon Mr. Henry dropped her off at a cab station."I will give you a phone call later, Sophia. Bye," Mr. Henry said to Nancy, and he zoomed off.Nancy got into a cab, and she ordered the cabman to her grandma's family home.The magnificent house is a standard duplex too. And Nancy walked into the beautiful home that was gradually getting covered with overgrown flowering plants, and she made her way into the parlor.Grandma Khloe was fit and she wasn't using any cane to support her walking, as she lived alone and most of her children were all married, and her husband too was late.She called o
