“You moron! How could you be so callous? You are such a jerk! All those sweet things you were saying to the Does were nothing but lies? And for all those expensive gifts you presented them?” August asked with a frowned.“The gifts” Boris sneered. “I know people like Mrs Doe, all they care about are material things. I used the gifts to win over her heart for real; yesterday she allowed me to take her daughter out for lunch, next time it will not be just lunch… you know what I mean?” he disclosed with a sly chuckle.August seethed, the so called future son-in-law Mrs Doe was over the moon about was nothing but just a despicable man! He spent over $15,000,000 buying gifts for the Does in order to win over them and take advantage of Tina when the time presented itself.“Listen here, you bastard,” August cursed with a temper. “You can kiss your little plans goodbye, because as long as I’m alive; I’ll not allow you do any harm to Tina,” he disclosed firmly.“What are you going to do to stop
Throughout the meeting, August barely managed an official smile, inside he was seething with rage after discovering Boris evil intentions.After the minute, he immediately requested for the hotel Manager’s presence and the latter came running.“Tell me, has that bastard apologized to the Does yet?” He inquired with a frown.“No, Young master,” Mr Smith dismissed with a shrug. “After you went in for the meeting, he barely wasted ten minutes in the pool before leaving for the hotel room with the lady,” he disclosed.“That bastard,” August frowned clenching his fist. He did not want to intervene and have Boris confess to the Does with his mouth, but it seemed Boris was forcing his hand.“With your permission, young master, I’ll have men drag him to the Does mansion and force him into confessing,” the manager said slowly.August scowled at him without saying a word, he knew better to retreat his statement. “Forgive me young master, I got carried away, I shouldn’t speak beyond my limits. I
Before August could respond, Tina’s brother sneered from his seat, his voice dripping with contempt. “I can’t believe this church rat has the nerve to show up here again. Don’t these lowlifes know how to stay in their place? Unbelievable!”August was not at all offended by their insults, he had been receiving a lot of those since he was a child. If he got a dollar every time someone insulted him for being poor, he would have gathered over five million dollars!He was too focused on the course that brought him to the house than responding to any of their disdainful insults. “There is something I must tell you, you should listen to me,” August started to say.“Cut me the crap, pauper,” Mrs Doe snapped before he could speak further. “I don’t know why men like you exist, you are disgrace to manhood. We all know what you want to say, but listen to me; as long as I’m here you will not receive any favors from my daughter or any member of the Does family. I won’t allow you pest on my family,
August seethed with rage at Mrs Doe and George. Only the almighty knows what he would’ve done to them if they were not Tina’s family. He was trying to save them from Boris’ gimmicks, but here they were using the opportunity to mock the hell out of him instead.“Come on, mom, what if August is saying the truth. Have you thought of that? I think you should listen to him instead of throwing more insults at him,” Tina said frustratingly.“Truth?” Mrs. Doe scoffed. “Don’t tell me you believe a word he said. I know you have reservations about this marriage, but do you really think this down-and-out is telling the truth? Come one, Mia, you are a very smart woman— can’t you see that this bastard is jealous of Boris and wants to turn us against him?” “Why do you trust Boris so much, Mom? I told you something seemed off about him, but you were quick to dismiss my concerns as misjudgment. And now, after August just told you what he saw and heard, you’re calling him a liar!” Tina’s voice rose wi
“Boris? You are here?” Mrs. Doe exclaimed stunned. She was not the only stunned one in the room, in fact all the jaws in the room dropped in surprise as their gaze caught him. August was far from stunned; “Unbelievable! I left him at the hotel, how come he is here all of a sudden?” he muttered to himself.Boris walked straight up to Mrs. Doe, dropping to one kneel. “Future mother-in-law,” he saluted with much reverence before raising to his feet. “Sorry for not answering your call, I was driving to this place and didn’t see the phone ring. Forgive my ignorance” he explained with a calm tone.Everyone was stunned by Boris reverence, even Mrs Doe found her mouth hanging agape in shock. She was taken aback by his humility. He apologized on his knees for failing to answer a call that rang barely three minutes ago while he was driving! “It’s okay Boris, there is no need to apologize. I should be the one apologizing for calling you for irrelevant reasons,” Mrs Doe said shooting a witherin
Mrs Doe was taken aback by Boris self-effacing. She couldn’t believe he would put away his ego and drop on his knees to defend himself despite being the heir to one of the most powerful families in the country.“What are you doing, Boris? Please get to your feet,” Mrs Doe said quickly grabbing both of his arms as he raised him to his feet. “There is no need to apologize or explain yourself— I did not believe a word of the accusations he said about you. I knew he was lying from the start— I know that you will not be with another lady but my daughter,” Mrs Doe said calmly.Boris guffawed inside but on the outside he remained indifferent. “This woman is very foolish, she doesn’t even doubt a word I say. Her foolishness is going to land Tina in my bed,” he jeered within.August on the other hand was seething with rage, seeing Mrs Doe easily convinced by Boris acting skills made his blood boiled vigorously. “Don’t fall for his act!” August protested. “Trust me, he is lying— his intentions
Two days later, Tina sat in her office, her gaze drifting out the window, her pen twirling absently through her fingers as she lost herself in thought."If only Dad hadn't gone on that month-long business trip, he would have at least understood and respected my decision not to marry Boris. But Mom doesn't care about my choice at all," she brooded.Just as her mind continued to swirl with lingering thoughts, her phone shrilled—it was a call from her mother.“Hello mom,” she greeted dejectedly.“Come to Aurora Diamond Store now!” Mrs Doe instructed quickly at the other end of the call before hanging up abruptly.Tina pondered why her mother wanted her at Aurora Diamond— one of the biggest jewelry store in the city. The store was known for its first class and expensive jewelries, one needed nothing less than six figures to buy at least a silver ware from the store.Wasting no time, she hurried to the store. Upon arrival, she saw her mother standing in front of the store, frowning like s
“Mom!” Tina called, signaling her mother to see what the persons at the other end of the street were holding in their hands. “I think we should go closer and have a good look”They quickly crossed the road to where the Protestants were standing. As they were close enough they could hear them screaming all sorts of things about the store.“If you can’t give us the jewelry we paid for, refund our money. You thieves!” One of the voice yelled in frustration.“You can call more thugs to beat us up but we won’t we stop till you pay us back our money, all of it!”“You can’t just shut us up after taking our money. We want our money back, you scam!” Another yelled.The more Tina and her mom drew closer, the more frustrating screams they heard and the more puzzled they got. None of the voices said anything positive about the store. “Excuse me Mrs, if I may ask, what’s with the uproar against Aurora Diamonds?” Tina asked intriguingly.“Aurora Diamonds, those scoundrels!” one of the woman curs
