CHAPTER 89"What is going on here?!" A loud voice questioned behind him, her footsteps thundered as she drew closer to where the trio stood.From her feminine voice and the sound her footsteps made, one could tell that she was a lady.The tension within them reduced a bit as their attention was now turned towards the lady who strode boldly toward them.She maintained a serious look as their heads turned toward her elegant features. "What is the reason for the ruckus gentleman? Your loud voices and dramatic performances have been causing distractions in the store and our customers are quite uncomfortable with the noise and are threatening to retreat from the store."She spoke sternly and professionally. Jude watched the lady closely as she spoke. She looked quite professional and smart in the long-sleeved shirt she wore with matching black palazzo pants with a black pointy heel that elevated her height. Making her look taller than she actually was.Her face however carried a frown sla
CHAPTER 90"What did you say?" Jude asked transfixed by her words. He couldn't believe his ears, her words shook him to the brim.Why would she send out a customer who had come to patronize them or was there something else that was going on that he couldn't see?His face drew a confused look as she stared at her in disbelief.Disbelief at the fact that she sent him out without even looking at the man who stood beside them staring mockingly at him, disbelief at the fact that she didn't believe his side of the story or did she? But still, decided to chase him out of the store."Yes, I am. Leave this store now" she spoke as she maintained her stern voice as her hands gestured to the door.Jude stared at her, shifted his gaze to the duo who stood beside him and shifted his gaze back to the lady who persistently motioned to the door.He wasn't sure she knew what she was doing or perhaps she must have misheard his story and thought that he was at fault instead so of scolding the sales girl,
CHAPTER 91 Jude walked out of the store before the security could come around. He was done with them and he was going to show them who he was.His clothes had dried now from the water the sales girl had downed on him his clothes became strong and a little bit rumpled as a result of the cold water.Out of the previous store, he looked around him in search of another store to go to make his purchase as that line seemed to be filled with motor-selling companies. He saw another store right beside the one he had just come out from and walked towards the entrance hoping he was going to see a car he loves.He, however, met the shocker outside their door as he wasn't allowed to enter the store. The manager and the salesperson blocked him from entering through the door.They had seen the dispute and ruckus that went on in the other store so they prevented him from entering theirs. Shocked and perplexed by their prevention, he asked them why they prevented him from going into the store and t
CHAPTER 92Jude stood in his tracks as he looked at the woman in shock, unable to believe her warm gestures, he looked behind him to see if there was someone else who was walking into the store or if he was the only one at the front of the entrance door.However, the woman shot him a warm smile, assuring him that he was the one she gestured to.He stepped into the store and the chill breeze coming from the well-positioned air condition welcomed him, drying off the sweat that had formed multiple beads on his forehead. The woman kept up her smile and asked him politely if he cared for any drink or just water.He was speechless at her question as that was the last thing he was expecting from her or anyone in that line due to his previous experience. Jude collected a bottle of water and gulped it as fast as he could. However, he could notice the managers and salespersons from the other store staring at them in amazement. They were mocking the woman for accepting him into her store, the
Chapter 93Pov_“Here is my card, I am paying with this” he said stretching forth his hand to the manager.“Alright, I will make the payment now, come with me” the manager replied as she led the way to the office but on their way two cars caught his attention and he moved closer to see what brand of car they were.“I love this car, they look unique and I trust they are comfortable to ride in” he said and she looked at him a little bit doubtful due to the price of each car.“So what are you saying?” She asked and he looked through the window into the car before turning to her.“I will take these two” he replied pointing to one Range Rover and a Rolls royce.She swallowed her spit nervously before talking. “What about the ones you picked out?” “I will pass on that, they look too burgeoning,” he responded.“I should charge it from this card right or do you have another means of paying?” She asked and he shaked his head negatively. “Alright, come with me” She walked to an office, she ga
Chapter 94They all waited with so much anticipation hoping to see Jude chased out of the store but unfortunately they saw a car being driven out of the store, so they all rushed into the store and started asking questions based on their curiosity.“Where is the man?” Someone among the group of people that rushed into the store asked, while the staff were trying to keep them calm and answer their questions the manager came out due to the noise and they all went quiet a little bit.“What is going on here?” She asked and they all turned towards her and looked so earnest to hear what she had to say.”Why are they all here? She asked.“They’re–” Helen, one of the sales representatives, tried to explain what was happening but someone among the crowd interrupted her.“Where is jude ?” A woman in her early 40s asked as she waited patiently for an answer.“He just left with his car” she replied but they all seemed to have doubts.“He is broke, how was he able to afford it?” Someone asked and s
Chapter 95POV_After they had all confirmed that Jude wasn't poor but rather rich, they started regretting why they had chased him away instead of welcoming him.“You caused all these, if you hadn't told me he was poor, I won't have chased him out of my store” one woman said to another woman who immediately turned to the man beside her.“Me? I passed information I heard to you from him, he told me how poor the guy was and I was trying to save you from that, how is that my fault?” She fired back and the man did same thing by turning to a woman beside him.“She told me about the information she got, I just did what was necessary at that time” he said calmly without rushing.This went on for five minutes till the whole matter landed on a woman who happened to had started the rumor of Jude being a pauper and how unfortunate it would have been having him in their stores.“I didn't do anything wrong, I just told her what Mrs Jackson said about the man being very poor, it's her fault we los
Chapter 96Pov_She looked at her locker as she picked out her home wear and pull out the uniform, the other workers had left the room.“I hope he or she gets fired for doing that” one of the ladies said as they both walked out of the room. The lady became angry at everyone blaming her for passing across an information she heard.“Why am I to be blamed for doing my job right? I didn't do anything wrong so why am I getting fired?” She said to herself as another worker walked in and overheard her saying that.“So you were the one who started the rumor about him being poor” the staff confronted her and she became speechless at first.“I…I am” she stuttered and the other lady said.“I am glad you're getting fired, it'd be so nice not having to see you everyday” she said and as she was about to walk away, the lady fired back.“What is so wrong with me saying this gs I heard? How is it also my fault that I didn't know he was rich? It wasn't fault he looked so poor.” She said defensively.“J
