"Clinton, don't you get it! You are just a poor boy, what can you possibly offer me?"
It was a peaceful night at Wanton University. Lying on bed was Clinton in the boys dormitory, making a call with his girlfriend. "What do mean Xavier? I love you. Even if I am poor, I can make you happy" Clinton said as he held on to the phone.At the other end of the call, Xavier had an ugly expression on her face. "Make me happy? Tell me Clinton, Can you buy me the new Adidas bag that I wanted?"Clinton hesitated before answering. "No. You know, they haven't paid me yet. Once I receive my salary, I will buy it for you."When Xavier heard this, she couldn't believe her ears. How can a boy be this hopeless!"Clinton, you cannot even buy me a simple Adidas bag that costs only 1000$. How can you take care of me in future?"Clinton was at lost of words. It was true, he has never thought of how he was going to take care of Xavier when they marry in the future, but that didn't mean he hasn't tried his best."So you don't have any money with you?""The only money I have here with me, is my tuition fee," "Okay, why don't you send me your tuition fee then."Clinton was speechless when he heard her."Xavier, I can't send you my tuition fee." Clinton shook his head as he said this. "If I lose it right now, I won't know how I will be getting one."Xavier yelled. "What! You won't buy me the adidas bag? Tell me, how will I be able to hang out with my friends. Each of them is having expensive bags. All I wanted from you to just buy be a bag that cost only 1000$, is that to much to ask?""Xavier, please. I am now part of the school cleaners. The headmaster has agreed to pay me 500$ every month."She hissed. "So you want me to wait for the next month before you will buy it?""Xavier" Clinton sighed. "I know you want to show off like the other girls but…"Before he could finish his words the call has ended!As he was about to called her again, his roommates stopped him."Clinton, don't call her again. Why don't you visit her at the females Dormitory instead"" Yes man. You should go there instead."Clinton switched on the dormitory lights and noticed that none of his friends were sleeping. "Guys, you heard us?" He asked feeling slightly embarrassed.Jimmy chimed in. "Offcourse Clinton. We know you are dating the school hot chick. But why don't you go to her house, She sounded angry on the phone"Clinton shoke his head. "No. Not her house. She lives across town. Even if I hailed a taxi I will be there at 12 pm."But his friends were persistent. "Look bro. Women are like that. Once you argue with them, you need to persuade them with some kind of a gift"The moment Clinton heard his friends mentioned this, his eyes spark with an idea." But guys, I don't know what she will like. Plus I only have a few bucks with me."Jimmy look at Clinton." Buy her some cake. She will definitely like it."After saying that, all the boys contributed an amount to help Clinton buy Xavier a cake but Clinton denied." I appreciate your help everyone but I don't want to trouble anyone here. I will get her a something else""Don't be silly." Scolded Jimmy. "Here "He handed him a 100 bucks.Clinton was hesitant at first but after his roommates advise him he had no other choice but to take the money. Besides he could top up the money and buy an expensive heart cake for her.The thought of about this made him smiled deeply.Clinton got dressed up and made it to the door."Guys wish me luck""There's no need for luck, things will get better between the two of you, don't worry yourself too much, after all she has been in a relationship with you for the past two years, even when no one wanted to date you, she was the only girl that treated you as a human. Xavier will definitely like your gift" Jimmy explained to him."Okay, Jimmy, then I think you should follow me. You can say these things to her, your words carry emotional message"Jimmy laughed. "Alright, but remember, I will not be the first to talk to her, you are her love, not me. Use calm and heart felt words to soothe her heart when we get there" Clinton nodded and left the dormitory with Jimmy.Few minutes later they got to the streets and hailed a taxi to a nearby mall. They went in and bought a cake that cost 130$. After they had rapped it in a package, the two boys then made their way to Xavier's apartment.After traveling for two hours the two boys finally reached her apartment. It was one bedroom apartment located across town. The house looked plain, it was not small and not that large either which is perfectly built for University Students.Clinton and Jimmy discussed it amongst themselves when they arrived. Clinton would go inside first and talk to her then after a while, Jimmy will join him inside.With a deep breath Clinton pushed open the door to the living room.Suddenly, he heard a faint voice of a woman moaning in pleasure coming from the bedroom. The realization that it might be Xavier made him frown.With a sense of dread Clinton proceed to the bedroom. The sound of moans grew louder with each step he took near the bedroom door. Xavier has one hosted a party at her apartment and if not for that, Clinton would never had known about Xavier's apartment.Clinton clenched his fist with a mixture of feelings, he pushed open the door."Puff"The sight of Xavier lying on the bed naked, with her legs open wide as a man who is also naked, on top of her going to and fro of her, caused Clinton's body to shoke vigorously!A look of shock crossed her face as she laid eyes on Clinton at the door. Her face went pale as she quickly pushed the man off her and covered herself with the duvet, looking at Clinton with a mixture of shock and guilt.The man on the other hand, had an ugly expression on his face as he quickly scrambled to his feet, reaching for his clothes in a hurry. As he dressed, he shot a look of disdain at Clinton."Clinton, what are you doing in my apartment?" Feeling displeased and exposed, she tried to ease the tension.Clinton tightened his fist and yelled. "What do you mean, what am I doing here? So this is what you've been doing behind my back?"Xavier looked downwards ashamed to look up at Clinton. "It's not what it looks like. Clinton, I can explain. Just give me chance to explain""Bullshit!"He replied with a yell. "Are you trying to tell me that I am blind? Are you telling me it's not what it looks like when another man is on top of you having sex with you?"The man looked at Clin
Clinton shouted like a mad man, he checked the message more than dozen times, and it turned out it was not a fake message.There's was actually a hundred million dollars in his account!Few minutes later someone called his line again, "Have you received the money that I sent you?" The familiar voice of his elder sister sounded, when Clinton answered the call."Sister? What is going on, You are the one that sent me the money?" Clinton asked, his voice trembling."Yes, actually I am also very happy that this day has come, today is the day that your poverty education ends."Poverty education? Since when did poverty become a source of Education?"Sister, what do you mean? I don't get you""Brother, I am sorry that I made you go through this. I didn't have any further options. As the next heir of the Wayne family, you are to be raised in poverty for 20 years before you will be handed all the family assets..She didn't allow him to interrupt as she went on to explain. "As one of the rich
After looking through the various companies he owns, Clinton received a call from his class captain. A very nice voice came from the other end when the call connected. "Did you forget about my birthday? Why are you not here?"Clinton scratched his head, thinking of a way to turn her request down. "Oh about that, I will be busy right now. I can't attend your party.""Come on Clinton, It's my birthday, Don't worry," she paused then said. "You don't have to think about buying me any gifts. You being there will be okay for me. I will feel bad if you absent yourself from tonight's party.""But I don't want to come. The people will laugh at me even if I wear something good""Clinton," she said in a soft voice. "I want you to come. You are the only friend I have aside Akira" Clinton bit his lips. "Okay. Will come""I will take that as a yes then, I have reserved a room at Victoria restaurant, on the second floor."Clinton replied with a helpless tone. "Fine, In case I'm coming I will call
Cia and Daniel's body shook at the sight in front of them. Cia's head started spinning!She had known Clinton ever since he started dating Xavier, but how can he suddenly turn this rich?To even buy a bracelet that cost 55,000$ without blinking. If it turns out that Clinton was some sort of rich heir then she will die from regret!"It's a lie right? Clinton can't possibly buy this on his own. Maybe he stole the credit card." Cia tried to reason.The manager stared at Cia coldly and gave her a tight slap. "Are you blind! How can you say that to our VIP customer?"VIP customer?So now that he is rich, he is a VIP?Clinton chuckled at her remark.Cia held onto her burning face as she continued to talk. "You are mistaken, he must have stolen the card. He is not rich, he is just a cleaner in our school. How can he possibly have so much money?"Her words made everyone came back to their senses."Yes, I think that makes sense, Manager, let's check the card properly." The old saleswoman sai
Chapter 6The manager turned to look at Clinton, then back to his phones screen, he ended the call and sent a text message instead."Mr Clinton where are you" Clinton's tone was relaxed as he read the message aloud for the man to hear!The man stared at Clinton in horror as if he had seen a ghost. He stumbled back dozen feet as though he had been punched in the face.He bit his lips until blood came out, not believing his own eyes."You are Mister Clinton?""That's right!"The man bowed his head on the floor immediately!"Mr Clinton… forgive my I'll manners. I was not in my senses earlier, I was foolish, to have insulted you. Please forgive me." He started knocking his head against the hard floor. "I don't want to loose my job else my wife will kill me!"Clinton found his actions amusing. "This is how things are like at this restaurant? I'm disappointed"His words weren't cold but when the man heard it, he felt as though he was being judged on judgement day. His ears kept reacting on
Clinton thought to himself and proceeded to the the elevator to the VIP Section.Almost everyone has arrived.Clinton looked through the people and spotted Sandra, chatting with few a friends."Has he arrived yet?" Sandra asked her friends."You mean Sanderson?""No, Clinton." She corrected them, but the response she received was a laughter instead. "Him? What would you be expecting him, Sandra today is your birthday, why don't we start the party then."Akira ordered some few expensive dishes, and wines.The waitress came in and served all the tables in the room. "Hello, please bring me two of the signature dishes." Looking over at Sanderson, he was sitting with Xavier and a few girls. Since he was rich, he wanted to be the spotlight for the night."I'm sorry sir. The signature dishes is only served to the customers with a membership." "What? Whatever the price I will pay for it." Sanderson said boastfully. "Sir, it's not about the prize. Our signature dishes are meant for peopl
When he reached where Clinton was standing, he posed like a righteous man and gestured for him to follow him. Sanderson had decided to use this opportunity to further humiliate Clinton. If making fun of Clinton will make all the girls happy then he would do it.He lead him to the table he was sitting on. "Clinton I respect you very much, please why don't you take my seat?" Clinton was also curious to see the end of Sanderson's joke so he played along and sat on the chair.Suddenly, everyone on the table stood up and left, leaving him to sit there alone."Sanderson don't be too modest. You are too kind, but being kind has its limit. Clinton tried to chase after your girlfriend. He doesn't even have the qualities to do so. why are you offering him your seat?" "But guys, I don't care about it. We are all boys after all. So it is only natural for me to respect him as a fellow classmates" Sanderson smiling faintly."Sanderson, how can you be compared with this person. He is not worthy e
Suddenly all eyes were locked on Clinton. Shock and surprised was written all over everyone's faces. They had know Clinton like how they knew their house cat. He was so poor that he used to skip classes just to go works as cleaner at some bar.Not only that, when Clinton was at Second year at the University, he was employed as the school janitor. Because of this he became infamous. That every girl will use his name as a punch line to tease other girls. 'That girl is not even worthy of the school lowest ranked boy, Clinton. Hahaha' They would always say.The sudden turn out of events was too hard for them to accept.How can someone they looked down so much on, unexpectedly buy an expensive item that even they couldn't buy?Especially Sanderson. He was the one who has been insulting Clinton more. As he deemed him to be below his status.However, the tides had turned so sudden and now, he was on the losing end. He had spent a lot to buy the ruby bracelet. It was only until now that h
