Dinner invitation

Back in the Malcolm Fernando mansion, the whole family were gathered in the living room after hearing Caroline's words.

"You are getting married? To who?" Malcolm asked with a smiley face.

"Scott Carden." Caroline sounded with a warm smile.

"Scott? Do i know him? Is he one of the big shot's son in Spain?" Malcolm asked with a confused expression.

Malcolm was a man who dined with presidents and big men around the world everyday. How then hasn't he heard of the guy named Scott Carden?

"You don't know him because he's a nobody." Mrs Sheila chimed in,her voice mixed with anger and disappointment.

"Mom? Don't talk to him like that!" Caroline intoned.

"It's the truth, Caroline. The boy is a poor bastard who's only dating you to spend from your wealth!" Mrs Sheila shouted.

"Scott isn't like that. He's a good and honest guy." Caroline answered back.

"Can you two knock it off already and tell me what's going on?" Malcolm Fernando couldn't take the pandemonium anymore.

"Ask your daughter!" Mrs Sheila voiced out. "She brought in a beggar and said she wants to marry him."

"What? That's impossible!" Malcolm said in disbelief.

"Scott is not a beggar." Caroline spoke up.

"Fine, then. What does he do to earn a living?" Malcolm asked.

Caroline stood there in silence after hearing her dad's question.

"H-H-He's a cleaner." Caroline stuttered.

Mrs Shiela broke out in laughter after hearing Caroline's words.

"A what?" Malcolm asked,his expression mixed with confusion and disbelief.

"I know how it sounds." Caroline replied. "But Scott is a graduate. We could give him a much better job in the company once we get married."

"Can't you see what's going on here? He's using you,Caroline." Mrs Shiela sounded. "Once he gets married to you he starts making crazy demands. We can't let that poor wretch step foot into this house."

"You know what. Let's wait till tomorrow to decide." Malcolm spoke up. "Caroline, Invite this Scott over for lunch tomorrow. Since my whole family would be arriving tomorrow,everyone would get to meet him and decide whether he stays or not."

"So you are going to let that Riff Raff step foot into this house?" Mrs Shiela questioned.

"Let me just get to meet him at least before deciding what to do next." Malcolm replied,walking away and heading upstairs.

***

Relocating to Spain Scott has faced nothing but maltreatments and insult from the rich. Everyone treated him like trash and a nobody just becauae he appeared poor and wretched.

The only person who showed him love and kindness was Caroline Fernando. Even if she was the daughter of one of the whealthiest man in spain,she never treated Scott badly.

And now that it was time to get married, Caroline finally introduced Scott to her mother. But things didn't turn out the way they planned.

***

The morning sun flickered into the small room through the window and shone brightly into the eyes of Scott.

Scott opened his eyes sluggishly and got off the bed.

Picking up his phone, Scott saw an unread message.

"She must have texted me when i was asleep." Scott mused, clicking on the text. The text was from Caroline inviting him over to her house for lunch.

Memories of last night began to flash into Scott's head. How Caroline's mom humiliated him and rained barrage of abuses on him.

Now that Caroline informed him that her whole fimily would be there,Scott feared that something more than yesterday might happen to him.

After thinking for a while,Scott dropped his phone on the bed and walked into the bathroom to get ready for the day's activity.

Moments later,Scott walked out of the bathroom and quickly got dressed in his usual tattered hoodie and faded trousers.

After fully getting dressed,Scott exited the room and headed straight to the company he worked as a cleaner.

***

Scott arrived in the huge company and was greeted with the usual hateful glares and insults here and there.

"You are late, you poor wretch!"

"Why are you always dressed in those stupid clothes? Even beggars would reject them as a gift!"

"Isn't it time for you to die,Scott?! No one needs you in this world!"

Even if Scott never did anything to anger them,they still kept on attacking him because he was a poor cleaner.

But after hearing the same thing over and over again,Scott got used to it and didn't let it bother him anymore.

Scott quickly got changed in his usual blue cleaner uniform.

"Good morning, Scott." A female voice sounded from behind. Turning around, Scott saw a pretty blonde lader also dressed in the same uniform as him,carrying a mop and a bucket.

"Tory." Scott replied,heading towards Tory.

Tory was Scott's partner at work and also his bestfriend. The two has been working together ever since they graduated from high school. They always shared every secrets between eachother,but Scott never mentioned anything about his true identity.

"I heard you were getting married." Tory said with a wink and smirk.

"How come you know about it? I never told you." Scott inquired with a surprised expression.

"There's a saying. Bad news travels fast." Tory replied,dropping the bucket of water on the floor and dipping the mop inside.

"What do you mean bad news? We love each other." Scott sounded.

"Okay,but are you sure she truly loves you? Or will her family accept you?" Tory questioned. "Look at us,Scott,We are broke. Those people are not in our league."

"No,You are mistaken. Caroline loves me. Her parents might not like me, but i know she does." Scott responded.

"If her parent doesn't like you,They would do everything they can to poison her mind against you." Tory warned. "It's better to let it go now,because if you keep holding on to fake promises, it would hurt more when she breaks your heart in the future." Said Tory.

"Let's just see how it goes this afternoon." Scott uttered.

"What do you mean?"

"They invited me over to lunch. And i'll be heading there during my lunch break." Scott replied with a smile.

Scott replied,also mopping the floor."And then what? They just accept you?" Tory questioned."I hope so. All i have to do is relax and put on my best behaviour.
