THE LITTLE PHRASE"If we work on that and it succeeds, then I am the wife of the heir of the Brooks family, I can convince him to help us. After all, it's his wife's family business too. " Louisa explainedGrandma's face lightenedShe sat up and looked at Louisa. " You know what, you are right. You are right." Grandma said happily." Great. So now how do we plan on achieving that?" Louisa asked.Grandma sat down quietly for a while before speaking." For now, since you are officially married , I will have a meeting with the other members of the family and then we will follow the procedures and make you the heiress. Now when I receive an invitation from the Brooks family, I would write to tell them that I was going to do your succession ceremony on the same day they would be doing theirs but I will postpone mine so I can attend theirs.I know for a fact that will please Mr Roland Brooks. Now, right after that. I will request for the heir to have a meeting with you since you bo
YOU ARE OFFICIALLY THE HEIRESS OF THIS FAMILY" You are always a genius Grandma. You saved ahead of time. Thank you" Louisa exclaimed." Now before the five months come to an end, we would have dumped him already. All that you need to do now is to keep this whole marriage thing on the low so that none of the Brooks family will hear about it." Grandma said.Louisa nodded.Louisa spent the rest of the day at Grandma's apartment till late in the evening when she left for her apartment.They had planned thoroughly on how they intend to achieve their aim of getting Louisa to get married to the heir of the Brooks family and in the process, ditch Ethan. ********Reuben and Annabelle ate their dinner and by 10pm, they were ready to go to the couples pub.They got there and the place was already half filled with couples .Everyone looked clean and decent.The atmosphere was serene.Only a low tone RnB music was playing in the background and people were vibing with it.Some couples sat aro
CHAPTER 78Reuben woke up from his deep slumber. After stretching for a while, he sat up and looked around.Annabelle was sleeping peacefully beside him.He smiled.He took his phone and glanced at the screen.It was a few minutes after 6 am.He was about to drop the call when he realized he had missed a call from someone.He unlocked the phone to check the number. It was from Grandpa Roland. He took his phone and walked out to the living room, and sat luxuriously on the sofa. He dialled Grandpa's number, and he answered shortly." Hello Grandpa, Good morning," Reuben greeted " Good morning boy, how are you guys doing?" He asked." We are fine, Grandpa. All is well. "" I called you a few minutes ago."" Yeah, I missed the call, I just woke up from sleep. In fact, Annabelle is still in bed . You know I had a very busy day and night yesterday, " Reuben replied." I understand you. There is something I want to discuss with you?" Grandpa said." OK, I'm all ears," " Well, I sent an

I wish we would live like this every day, no work,no stress, nothing," Reuben whispered to her.Annabelle smiled, and they unciously pulled their heads together in a kiss.They kissed deeply for about two minutes before they finally broke off.They stared at each other for a long time." We are here, sir." The voice of the driver could be heard from the other side as the car came to a halt." Already??" Louisa murmed in a complaining tone.The driver got down from the car and quickly opened the door for reuben to get down. Then he closed the door, ran to the other side, and opened the door for Annabelle to get down Annabelle alighted and looked around.It was a nice and c

THE BILLIONAIRE PAUPER Reuben and Annabelle went back to the hotel around 3 pm.Annabelle had woken up a few minutes after she had slept, and they enjoyed themselves in the sun and breeze till they were both exhausted.Reuben called the chauffeur driver, and he came around in a few minutes with the car and the man who had set the umbrella and the mat for them.Reuben and Annabelle went to sit in the chauffeur and left while the man set to work.They both got to the hotel exhausted. After having a shower, they sat in the sitting room and watched a movie till late in the evening when dinner was served.They returned to continue the movie until Annabelle fell asleep on Reuben's chest.He carried her gently to the bedroom and laid her on the bed, covering her with the blanket to keep her warm.He gently kissed her on the cheek.

SHE IS EAGER TO TAKE UP THE NEW POSITION Grandma Anderson received a call from Christine in the morning.She had accepted the offer and was willing to work as the manager of the company"Come over to my house then. Your cousin is on her way here. She will show you all you need to know about the company and duly hand it over to you. I'll personally take you to the workplace tomorrow and officially introduce you. "Grandma said as Christine told her she had accepted the offer.Louisa arrived at Grandma Anderson's house very early in the morning.Grandma was relaxing in her living room watching the news.One of the guards carried her luggage and followed her up the stairs." Good morning, Grandma. I am here," Louisa greeted Grandma Anderson " Good morning, my girl. You are welcome . Have a seat, " He said to Louisa, then turning to the guard who was with the luggage " Take the luggage to the empty room next to mine," She ordered.The guard nodded and left quickly.Louisa had sat o
THE PRESENTATION CENTERIt took Annabelle a little over two hours for Louisa to explain to Christine all that she needed to know about the job.Therefore, they could not go to the dining hall for their breakfast. Grandma ordered the house help to serve them in the living room.Grandma intentionally sat with them all throughout .She had two reasons in mind.The first was to see Louisa's 'presentation' and get to know the recent updates in the progress of the company.Occasionally, she would intentionally ask Louisa a question that, in actual fact, was supposed to be asked by Christine. Since Christine was a novice about the company, she could not ask the necessary basic questions. In essence, Grandma's living room was turned to a presentation center as Louisa sat explaining things to grandma and Christine.Grandma's second reason was that she knew that Christine and Louisa were not on good terms.Christine actually hated Louisa to the bone.She knew that if she left only the two o
