59.By the time Macy and Richard were pulling to the driveway towards the main house, Asher had already done his part and returned to his mansion just next to Richard's.Asher had been an avid supporter of his elder brother since they were young and he was always behind Richard in everything he did.He knew how cold his brother was and when Richard clocked twenty five and there was no sign of a girl or any marriage looming in the corner, his parents decided to take matters in their own hands.They thus used the person nearest to him and whom he trusted: Asher.At first, Ash was against it. He could not bring himself to betray his brother. The person who trusted him.But his father threatened with taking him to Mississippi or Louisiana to study there.Ash didn't want to leave home and so, he took his father's deal.He one day took Richard for dinner as they usually did and as their father had commanded, he put and aphrodisiac in Richard's drink.They had already prepared a girl from on
60.Macy feel asleep the moment she hit the bed.She hadn't had enough rest since they went for that celebration party then all what happened with Richard and she was yet to come to terms with the fact that she had just moved in with Richard.Everything happened so fast that Macy didn't yet seem to fathom all what was happening.Mel, on the other hand, was fidgeting the whole morning and she could hardly eat her breakfast in peace.Her uncle had told her that they would now be living in this new house with aunt Macy and she hadn't seen Macy yet.When she asked her uncle to take her to see Macy, he said that her dad would be very angry because Macy had just slept after the a hard night's work.As they were taking breakfast, Richard came down all ready and Macy jumped at him the moment she saw him."Why are you behaving like a baby today and you hate being held? Didn't you tell me that you are a big girl now?" I asked Richard teased as she adjusted her weight to hold her well."I will a
61.Macy, like Richard, was also wondering why she had agreed like a child to follow him home. She always knew herself as a hard headed person and when she was coming back to DC from China, she had agreed with herself not be a wiping mat for anyone.And now, here she was in a man's house without any reason to. She knew Richard cared for her and that he had never hurt her but this was never in her goals or plans.Macy and Richard were two people whom she had never thought or planned about.When Mel called her mama, she froze because she didn't know how to react.She sat down and swallowed then looked at the maids who had brought food and the old man who was standing there and they were all pretending that they didn't hear anything.Mel was smiling from ear to ear and Macy didn't have the energy to reprimand her.She pretended that she hadn't heard what Mel had said and she took tissues from the table to wipe her sweaty hands."Baby, are you hungry? Let's eat," she said though her voice
62.Macy spent a half of the following day sleeping which she didn't have to mind because Mel was at school.The person who came banging at her door and called her awake was Asher."Sister in law, wake up," he called and Macy came out of her room guns blazing."What did you call me?" She asked and he could read that she wasn't in a good mood."Nothing. What did you hear? Or did you hear something you would like to become?" He teased and she jumped and flipped on air three hundred and sixty degrees.Do you love your teeth the way they are?" She asked as she stood effortlessly."Oh my God! What did my brother see in you with you? Does he know that you are a violent woman?" Asher asked as he took steps backwards as if he was seriously afraid of Macy."Second young master, I think you don't like your mouth where it is.I will reset it for you,"act said as she took steps towards him in a menacing way."Stop it. I come here to call you for lunch and this is how you treat your brother in law
63.If there was one thing Macy loved more than life itself, it was Sports cars. She could never get enough of them.She thus joined drag races with the hopes driving one and she drove many when she was on China and when she was newly returned to DC since her and Lion met in China when he had gone to visit a friend and for vacation and he saw her race.He immediately gave her his card and promised to take care of her when she returned home and he did.Macy just stopped when he bugged her day in day out about them being together.So, her seeing these many sports cars and in the swme garage, it made her heart leave her chest for a while."Oh my God! Oh God! Oh God! Oh God! Waaaaaaaa!" Macy screamed as she ran towards the garage and started touching and hugging this car to that to the other one until she couldn't take any more and tears of happiness fell down her cheeks."Why are you crying?" Asher, who had been standing on the side watching her with amusement all along asked."I am just
64.Richard trusted Macy. He was a believer in never judging someone by their past but by how they treat you from the moment you meet them.He thus wasn't interested in investigating Macy after he knew what he wanted: who she was and what she did.He did that because he was worried for Mel. Mel had just been hurt by her own mother and he didn't want a repeat of the same with Macy.But tonight, he had to make sure that she stayed safe and that he knew who she was with and what she did just in case something happened.That was why he put May and Asher on the job. Asher wasn't even put on the job, he volunteered to go with Macy.At exactly seven thirty in the evening, Asher was at his brother's mansion ready for the action.He was dressed in tight red leather pants, a red t-shirt and a nylon luminous blue jacket that produced weird sounds as he walked.He had on black boots that looked like he had just come off a horse from a hard day's work at a ranch."Uncle, what are you wearing? You
65.The night didn't go as Macy wanted or as she had planned. Asher was there to check her every move and she realized that Asher didn't mind that she could race at high speeds and that she was wild and she was sure that if Asher didn't mind, even Richard wouldn't.She thought that a family like theirs would want a cultured woman who was modest and not someone like her who was wild and outgoing.But if she had managed to do anything that night, it was to make a new fan in the person of Asher Armstrong.She wondered what to do next and then she had an idea.So, after they were done racing and she even won against Dela who thought she could take Macy's car, she and Asher went back home.She didn't take Dela's car because she realised that she didn't want to make enemies in this sector because she might need them any time.She knew her position wasn't yet guaranteed in the city and she didn't know what Angela's next move would be and so, she couldn't anger Lion or his people and that wa
66. Macy followed the middle aged man outside and he found him smoking a big cigar next to a bin where there wasn’t much light.“I really thought that you were playing with me and wouldn’t come out.But I am glad you did,” the Man said as he took out a clipper and put out the cigar, produced a case and put both the clipper and the cigar inside and then put them back in to the inner pocket of his jacket.“I wouldn’t promise you if I wasn’t to come. And you promised to pay in cash, didn’t you?” Macy asked and the man smiled showing her a wand of cash.“How about we go to a hotel and spend the night? I will pay you double,” he said and Macy pretended to contemplate.At the corner of that street, there was a tall man dressed in all black including the sneakers he was wearing and he was a jar of vinegar.He had hopes that Macy was a girl different from the others because he believed that he was a good judge of people and he wondered how he had been so wrong about her.How come he didn’t
