The drive to the hospital Ava's mother was admitted in was full of tension as Ava refused to say a word but the air in the car already turned heavy and Lewis could feel it. He could feel that Ava wasn't as happy as she was before she entered the car and it somehow bothered him. He thought about calling Harvey for a moment to explain to him about his wife's sudden change of mood but he knew Harvey wouldn't care and he might even scold him for disturbing him with silly report! Lewis took a deep breathe as he entered the hospital compound and parked the car. " We are here." He said after a minute hesitation as he knew Ava was already lost in thought. Ava had no idea they were already in the hospital not until she heard Lewis's word and she batted her eyes. She looked around and let out a deep breathe when she realized it was indeed true. Her heart raced faster than ever. She was nervous, she was scared. She wasn't strong enough to face whatever was inside of she woul
Amy nodded her head. " Yes. You didn't tell me anything about your mum and I never asked either. It never even occurred to me that I was supposed to learn about your mum not until I went looking for you at home one day and the men in your house told me you came here to meet mum. I was taken aback and I thought about returning home but I was just too bored. I tried calling you several times but your line wasn't going through and there was nothing else I could do. I drove down here with the hope of seeing you and maybe say hi to mum but then again, you've left before I got here and I only met mum. I got attracted to her at first glance and at that moment, I wished she was my mum. I gave her a hug and fortunately, she did not push me off! I was elated! I introduced myself to her as your friend and I pleaded with her to be my mum and she agreed. " Amy explained and the happiness in her eyes was indescribable. She looked extremely happy and contended Ava was lost of wo
Ava dropped Amy in her office and drove down to the boutique that was nearest to her company. " Why are we getting clothes here, Madam? There are many boutiques under boss that we can always get clothes at a discount because you are the madam. Why here? It's small and ... I don't think it's right for you to shop in this kind of small place. " Lewis complained. He found no reason for Ava to buy clothes in such a cheap and small boutique even though it was a place filled with high class clothes but he believed one of Harvey's big world known boutiques was the right place for someone like Ava. Ava smiled and shook her head " Those people might report back to Harvey about things that I got but that won't happen here except he decides to ask. Let's go in. " She replied and stepped out of the car. She was about to take a step forward when she heard her phone buzzed and she paused. She brought out her phone to check what it was only to realize it was an alert! Harvey jus
Ava was given basic training for the first week in the company and her full work would start the following week. She would go out for meetings with Mr. Olive in the morning and returned to office in the afternoon for her training and it had continued like this for a week already. Ava had grown close to Mr. Olive during this one week and she knew he already trust her enough for her job. They would go out for tea before she left work and they would at times talk as if they were close but Ava always made sure she wouldn't cross the line with him and most times, she respected her professionalism and made everything in a professional way while also luring Mr. Olive to trust her more. " But the issue now is that the man seems to like flirting. I thought he was a responsible man but I don't think that's true. " Ava mumbled as she and Amy settled over a coffee at a shop near to her house. Amy nearly choke on her coffee as she slammed the coffee cup on the table and looked
Ava nodded her head along with Amy's advise as it was the best thing she could do at the moment. She had no idea how a man would fall for her at first sight even though she fell in love with Harvey at first sight~ " What else am I supposed to do?" She requested and Amy fell in deep thought. " You can't push him away. You can't make him realize you don't have a thing for him because we so much need his acknowledgment for this grand plan to really work. You need to make sure he favors you but you also need to make sure you don't let him touch you. Don't permit any touching from him or anything that might give him the feelings like you are his toy." Amy explained. She carried her coffee cup and dropped a bit away from her~ " Make sure he doesn't take advantage of you. Put yourself so high while also gaining his trust big time. You know who your husband is, right? He will never forgive you if news about you dating him gets out and there is no way it won't if you make him beli
Ava drove down to the company with her car the next day. She had a lot on her mind but she knew very well, more than anyone else that this job had to come first and there was nothing she could do to win Harvey over anyway. If he had loved her from the beginning or made any attempt to love her, it would have been easy for her to plan to win him back but he never tried loving her and Ava felt like he never for once thought of loving her and he even seemed to be stopping himself from attempting to. She stopped in front of the company and entered. She checked her time and she sighed when she realized it was still 6:30am; 30 minutes earlier than her resumption time~ " Is this how much I feel uncomfortable at home these days? I really miss when he would talk to me, scold me and at times, insult me. I don't know if I'm losing my mind or anything but I prefer when he insults me than when he doesn't say anything to me at all. At least, I was sure he knew I existed then but now,
Harvey was taken aback when he heard Lewis talk to him that way. He had never showed any of his workers so much levity that they would have the gut to look him in the face and speak anyhow to him but Lewis not only scold him but also questioned his stance? Harvey hated it when someone butted in his life or try to get too nosy with him and that was why he was trying all his best to work harder so that he could stay far away from his parents and live his own life. His hands dropped and his mouth hung open! He looked around him as if he wanted to find who Lewis was talking to but he realized he was the only one in the room and he shook his head. " No... No... That wasn't for me, right? I mean... you weren't talking to me, right?" He asked with a very calm voice. His voice was so calm that the whole room turned extremely cold and anyone with him at that moment would have to try harder to not turn to ice! Lewis covered his mouth! He hadn't planned to say anything but he wa
Harvey shook his head and smiled " Like I said, she is a no go area for me. I can't have her to myself. " He mumbled and cocked his head to the side " Hey! Luke, what about you? Don't tell me you did not see any pretty girl back there in Canada?" He asked with a smile on his face. Luke blushed. He rolled his eyes and stood up " Don't change the matter here. We were talking about you and you just want to change the matter like that?" He replied and walked over to the door. " I will be outside. Let me know when you are done with whatever you are doing so we can go out and have some fun." Luke said and left the office. Harvey nodded his head and returned to his laptop. He had a lot of work to do but he knew he had to round everything up for his friend whom he hadn't met in a while. After an hour, Harvey picked his phone and dialed his Secretary's line. The call rang a few times before it was finally answered and he cleared his throat ~ " Postpone all meetings t
