CHAPTER 11
"Let's talk in the study before someone finds out that her most admired model is her enemy," Seff said laughing and Jake laughed alongside him."Funny thing is that she'll still find out sooner or later," Jake said and Seff nodded affirmatively."I hope I'll be there to see the look on her face, it will be precious," Seff said laughing as they walked into his study room together."You've done well, Jake. I should apologize for missing your opening ceremony but trust me I watched every single detail of it on the News. " Seff told Jake. "Well, I missed it too. So… " And they both burst out laughing. "I think I should be secretive too about our partnership because I can't say for real who is the enemy and who is not. So, let's have each other's back without the public's knowledge, trust me, it'll go a long way. " Seff said, stretching out his hands for a handshake. "I'm all in, boss," Seff replied, shaking the outstretched hands."So, how has business been? Any contact from the Mayors

Jake stood at the gate of Samara's house and pressed his car horn to alert her of his arrival first before he walked up to the gate to escort her to his car.The sight of Samara in a simple lilac gown stunned him and brought him out of the disturbing thoughts he had been having since the day before when he read that text message.He watched her walk gracefully, down the steps to meet him and he smiled widely."What have my eyes done to deserve beholding the sight of such beauty." He commented and Samara smiled."You are always complimenting me. Even when I'm in a simple gown like this, don't you ever give up?" Samara was blushing."It is a simple gown indeed as I can't take my eyes off you because of how simple it is. You look stunning ma'am. You are bound to destroy the hearts of many and give sleepless night stop the poor in heart." He said stretching his hands to her and she laughed heartily before putting her own hands in them."Please, let's go. You never lack lines to impress a

"Their house is so beautiful, look at those beautiful flowers. They have good taste. " Samara kept admiring Seff Newton's house as she stepped down from the car after laughing at Jake's lost stares at Sanaya. "Yes, it is indeed one beautiful place. I have not yet gotten used to the beauty that hits me each time I step into this compound. " Jake responded agreeing with her and she smiled back at him as the beautiful lady approached them. "That's the popular Sanaya Newton, right?" Smart asked as she watched her approach them with a beautiful and genuine smile that brightened up her face in the illuminated lights. "Hello Mr. Jake." Sanaya greeted Jake with this sudden sly intonation that made Jake wonder what he had done right that day to deserve her politeness and good words. "Hello Sanaya. I bet you are in a good mood today and that's the only reason you've not reminded me that I don't have a happy home." Jake said trying to bring her out of her polite nature and reveal her to Sama

"That was my convocation ceremony. Seff was the most overactive and overprotective family member present. He didn't allow me out of his sight and greeted all my colleagues with me. I felt like I was in primary school graduation and not a convocation." Sanaya told her and they both laughed."That's sweet, you know. Having a brother who looks out for you." Samara said recalling that hers was nothing to write him about when it came to family members. Michael wasn't at all interested in her endeavors since the day she had left him."You have a brother too?" Sanaya asked her and she smiled."Yes, but I'm the elder and he isn't as lovey dovey as your brother." Samara told her."Have you tried acting the bigger sister?" Sanaya asked her again and she smiled. "We had our disagreements when we were younger but he never forgave me no matter how I pleaded later on. So, he hasn't given me a Chance to act like one as he always acts that he was fine and capable of taking care of himself." Samara s

"Working for Jake?" Sanaya asked and the whole table went silent."Well, what I mean is that, Jake has …" Samara stammered begging Jake with her eyes to save her but Seff had his head so focused on his meal as if the food suddenly was a very interesting case of study."Michael is helping me in my work with Seff actually. I don't know why she's so sensitive about that." Jake said, eyeing Samara and saving her the stress of explanation.Samara whispered a "Thank You' to Jake before she returned to her food. But with the look on the face of Sanaya, she wasn't believing, she placed her spoon on the desk and whipped her lips with the table whipper, but is there something someone isn't telling me?Jake was about to place his spoon in his mouth, but he held it back. At the end of Sanaya's statement, there was total silence in the background.Why is Sanaya so sensitive? Does she sense something? Does she have a magic power?

After a few more minutes of snoozing, Jake finally dragged himself out of bed and headed to the bathroom.He turned on the faucet and let the water run as he stripped off his pajamas.

He closed his eyes and let out a deep sigh, enjoying the peaceful silence of the morning.Once he was done with his bath, Jake wrapped a towel around his waist and headed to his bedroom closet. He pulled out a pair of khaki pants and a white polo shirt, both freshly laundered and neatly pressed. Jake dressed quickly and headed to the dining.As he entered the dining, the aroma of freshly brewed coffee and sizzling bacon filled his nostrils. Jake's mouth watered as he saw a plate of pancakes and a bowl of fresh fruit on the table. He poured himself a cup of
