“Because I bumped into her out of mistake, she pushed me hard and called me a b*tch.” Jesse explained to them. “You guys needed to see how hard I was pushed by that woman.” Jesse shook her head vigorously before blurting out. “That woman is so mean. I'm not surprised that she's Janet's mother.”“I'm so sorry about that, Jess.” Arthur apologized on behalf of Stella. He wished he was present at the place when it happened just to protect Jesse from Stella. “It is a good thing that I wasn't putting on high heeled shoes. If not, there's nothing that will stop me from falling.”“Don't mind that woman, she is lucky I wasn't there at that moment. How can someone be so mean?” Jenny added in a very serious tone. She would not take it from anyone who tries to insult or demean her sister no matter who that person was.“Let's not dwell on this anymore.” Jesse said to her sister. Such conversations would only get them enraged and that's not what they want.They were going to the orphanage home to
Jesse was speechless and silently smiled back at him. On the other hand, Jenny was feeling so overwhelmed. She could not wait to also visit the place. It must be as beautiful as Arthur stated.A mansion. The girls had never been to a mansion before.“Wow! You mean that your grandparents are living in a mansion.” Jenny asked excitedly and Arthur nodded at her.“Yes, they are and I'm going to take you and your sister to the place.”Arthur turned around and held Jesse's hands. “I'm leaving you to make the choice. My grandparents have many properties and you can choose anyone for yourself. You can also choose the one where you want us to stay after our wedding.”Jesse blushed when she said the words. She was speechless.Turning her face around, it fell on her sister who pursed her lips and smiled back at her. Jenny didn't say anything. The decision was her sister's to make. She's not going to tell Jesse what to do.Jesse turned back at Arthur with a warm smile plastered on her face. After
When it was time for the girls to go home, Arthur joined them in the car back home against Jesse's wishes. She didn't want him to bother himself since they knew their way home.“I don't know why you insist on joining us to go back to our house. I already told you that we're fine.”“I know.” Arthur replied but still stayed put. He had no intention of asking her to turn the car around and drive him back home.“Don't worry, I already called my driver and he'd be dropping me home.”“If you insist.” Jesse stopped bothering him. Moreover, it was no big deal since his driver would be coming to pick him up.Arthur saw the girls off up to their door and bid them goodbye before leaving the place. He got to the cab and was driven home.Meanwhile Stella engaged her daughter in a discussion at home that night. It was about the earlier incident with Jesse.“I bumped it Arthur this morning. It seems he already has a girlfriend.” Stella spoke with a smirk on her face. “It seems you're not even makin
Jesse and her sister got ready for work that morning and drove to their various offices. However, they were unaware of the vehicle following behind. She soon got to the mall and the car continued to drive by without stopping. The lady innocently made her way to the mall where she bumped into Nick.“Hi, Nick.” Jesse greeted him.“Hi, Ma'am. You look stunning in this outfit of yours.” Nick admired her and she inspected herself before smiling warmly at him.“Thank you.”Jesse was putting on a pink pants suit, green purse and green heel shoes. She looked really elegant in her outfit and got some people turning their necks in her direction.Stopping in her tracks, Jesse turned to Nick and asked him. “Have you seen Arthur this morning?”The man smiled and shook his head. “No, I think he's yet to show up.”Jesse chuckled and shook her head several times. “That young man doesn't know what it means to be punctual. He should be careful not to get himself in trouble.”Without another word, Jess
“Is he for real? What happened to the arrogant Mr. Hans?”Jesse spread her hands open. “I don't even know what happened here. I'm also confused.”The duo stared at themselves for a while before Jesse said to him. “Maybe he's in a very good mood this morning. I think you should go back to work.”Jesse turned around and began to walk away.Arthur went back to work. It didn't take a long time before he saw a young lady approaching the elevator. It was the young lady he had been searching for and she was coming from the direction of Mr. Hans' office.With his mouth open, Arthur stared intently at the young lady who pretended not to notice him.As she tried to get past him, Arthur held the girl's arm causing her to cast a glare at him.“What's this supposed to mean? I've told you to stay away from me.”The girl shoved Arthur's hand aside and continued towards the elevator. However, Arthur didn't let her. He quickly went after her and blocked her path.“Please, you have to calm down. I mean
“Sure.”Without another word, Benita took Arthur's phone from him and inputted her number. At that instant, Arthur dialed the number and it began to ring in her trousers pocket.Quickly, she took it out and showed it to Arthur. “That's your number, right?”“Yeah, that's it. I'll call you later in the evening.”Arthur tilted over and whispered something into her ears. “Remember what we discussed. No one should know that I'm in disguise here.”Benita nodded and began to laugh after which she replied. “Sure, your secret is safe with me.”“I have to go back to work now.”With that, Benita got into the elevator.That evening after he got off from work, Arthur made his way to ‘Probity hotel’ where he waited for Benita. He was waiting at the exclusive suite of the hotel.Once Benita arrived, Morris led her to the place. As soon as the young lady got into the suite, her jaws dropped. She could not comprehend what was going on.“Here she is, Sir.” Morris said to Arthur and also turned to Benit
It was Morris who came in. “Sir, I'd like to inform you that Miss Jesse is now around. Shall I bring her in?”“Sure, let her in. I've been expecting her.”Arthur's intention was for Jesse to wait for him while he and Benita concluded on their discussion. However, at that moment, Benita became more uncomfortable. She was afraid that they'd be misunderstood.Morris soon left the place and Benita turned to Arthur.“Are you, um… Maybe it's best I leave now so you can attend to your guest. Let's just meet next time.”Benita felt that Arthur's guest must be more important so she suggested that they have the discussion next time.She was about to stand up when Arthur stopped her. “You don't have to worry about my guest, she won't have any problem waiting for us.”“Ok, Sir.”Arthur glared at her and she forced a smile out after realizing the reason for the look. However, she didn't say anything else.Just then Jesse came in. At first, she was confused and kept wondering what was going on. Who
Benita was at a loss for words. Tilting her head, she began to sob.Arthur reached out and patted her arm. “You don't have to cry. It's over now.”“That's the reason I'm crying. You don't know me, yet you've taken it upon yourself to help me even though I was rude to you several times.”Benita lifted her face and wiped her tears.“If you hadn't been patient with me, I would have lost this chance. Something I've been praying for came to me and I couldn't even realize it because I was busy getting angry at the wrong person who was coming to help me.”“It's ok.” Arthur helped her with her glass of drink. “Come on, take a sip. I'm sure it'll help you calm down.”With a nod, the girl took the glass from Arthur's hand and had a few sips before placing it back on the table.“Thank you Sir.”Arthur ignored her words and continued. “You said something about not having a father. Do you mind telling me what happened?”“Sure, I will tell you everything.”“Ok, I'm listening.”Benita lifted her fac
