C7 Response

ALISHA (POV).

Still in shock and surprise, I looked at him,and felt nothing but hatred.

What does he take me for, a slut he could just buy with his money.

I kept on looking at him knowing fully well he was waiting for my response…

No,I can’t get married to you,and am not interested in your stupid offer.

Dont you ever come close to me or even think of talking to me.

If you will excuse me I have things to do.

With that I left the counter and went straight to the changing room.

DOMINIC (POV).

I looked at her, smiling wickedly thinking she was going to give me a positive answer,when she threw the bomb at me.

I couldn’t believe she just refused the offer,no lady in their right senses will do that.

I was shocked beyond measure, I couldn’t say a word till she left.

Been more determined to get her to accept my offer

I decided to do an underground check up on her.

I picked up my phone and Called my bodyguard.

At the first ring he answered the call.

Hello sir,

Meet me at cherry restaurant i will be waiting in the car for you.

With that I ended the call,paid for my drink and left the restaurant..

I went to the car and waited for Mike,and before I knew it he was right in front of the car.

I rolled down the glass of the car and told him everything I want him to do.

I described the girl and told him the information I needed.

I want you to follow her every move,know were she stays, where she Schools, her parents name, the people she moves and talk to.

Alright sir.

With that I nodded,rolled up the glass and told the driver to take me back to the office.

The drive to the office was quiet and calm, I still couldn’t believe she turned down my offer.

I arrived at the office on time and I met Nelson already waiting for me.

Why does he always have to come at the wrong time.

Hey man, have been waiting for you,were did you go to without me?

And when as it become a Crime to go out alone? I said walking into my office and he followed me right away.

I sat down on my seat and gave him my cold look

Hoping he will get the signal that I want to be left alone..

But instead he sat down on the seat and faced me,

He had been the only one that could stand my anger.

So,where exactly did you go to?

Nowhere exactly,I just stepped out a little.

Alright then,how far with your plan to get the girl,are you still going on with it.

Yes, and why do you care,I thought you are not in support of it from the beginning.

Look here Dominic,you are my friend and I want the best for you,am ready to support you and stand with you to go through this your plan.

But I just pray and hope you don’t get consumed in the process.

I decided to tell him the truth, I actually went to see her today, to tell her about the offer,but she turned it down,I still find it very difficult to believe she will actually refuse the offer.

Dominic,that shows you that going on with this plan is really a bad idea, that girl can’t be bought easily like you think….you just have to set up another plan.

I have told Mike to do an underground Check up on her and tell me everything about her.

No matter how difficult it is,she is going to accept my offer,am not backing out easily.

Dominic,is there something you’re not telling me, is there more to this your plan that I don’t understand or know about?

Come off it Nelson, there is nothing more to it,you already know all about it..

NELSON (POV)

I sat down and observed Dominic closely,there was something about him and is plan that isn’t right…

In as much as the girl insulted him,I have never seen him waste so much time and effort on a girl ,who doesn’t even want to have anything to do with him.

I decided to support him and make sure the girl accept his offer,just maybe she might change him..

Thinking of what next to do, I decided to pay the girl a visit and become her friend.

Who knows I might be able to convince her..

Nelson, when are you getting married and stop sleeping with every girl you see, Dominic asked.

Knowing answering him will lead to another question,I decided to ignore him and excuse myself..

I need to get back to the office,I just came to check up on you.

Running away as usual Nelson?

Continue running away, but just know you can’t run Forever.

I nodded and left his office.

Love was one thing I never believe in..

ALISHA (POV).

Everything went on quickly,and we closed early for the day,I was so tired and exhausted I couldn’t wait to get home and sleep..

I was about stepping out of the restaurant when my co-worker came and stopped me.

Oh God, not again

I don’t have strength for her troubles.

Alisha or whatever you call yourself,that guy I saw you talking with today,I want you to stay away from him,he is mine and I don’t share what belongs to me.

Look here Sandra, you can have him all to yourself I have nothing to do with him and can you just please excuse me and let me pass

I don’t have time for your trouble.

With that I pushed her out of the way,and left the restaurant.i decided to walk so I can have the time to recall that happened at the restaurant..

That Dominic of a guy is really something else,I couldn’t even imagine myself getting married to him or even someone like him.

I brought out my phone and called Christiana’s number and at the first ring she answered..

Finally, you decided to check up on me,

I laughed and ignored her comment.

How are you doing Tina?

I’m fine,just here as usual.

So why did you call?

Can’t I just call my friend to Check up on her?

Yeah yeah yeah,you can.

You have something to tell me Alisha,so go on with it.

No ,I don’t.

Yes you do Alisha

You are my friend and I know you very well..

Fine, you’re right,I do have something to tell you.

Alright,go on with it,I’m listening.

I told her all that happened, including the offer

and how I rejected it.

Like he actually thinks am a prostitute he can just buy with his money.

Alisha,just ignore and pretend it never happened like he never made you any offer.

That’s the best thing to do.

Alright tina, thanks for your time and advice,I’m on my way home now.

Alright dear,with that she ended the call.

I walked quickly and before I knew it I was home,i stepped into the house and saw mum and Alex on the couch fast asleep.

I decided not to disturb them,and walked straight into the kitchen and saw mum as already made dinner.

I went straight to my room took a shower and decided to rest a little before going downstairs to wake them.

But unfortunately I slept off..

I woke up to the sound of someone calling my name, slowly I opened my eyes and saw it was my mum..

Mum, you’re awake.

Yes dear,she should have let me know when you arrived.

I’m sorry mum,

Didn’t want to disturb you.

I looked at her face and saw her looking sad,I knew something was wrong.

Mum, what is it?

You look so dull and sad.

It Alex,I noticed he has reduced and I wasn’t quick to notice it

Something is definitely wrong with him,we need to take him to the hospital for check up.

She was right, something was definitely wrong with Alex, but were do we get the money.

Mum,you don’t have to worry nothing is wrong with him,but as for the check up he will definitely go for it ,once am able to get the money..

You have nothing to worry about.

Alright dear.

Let go eat ,she nodded and we both left the room to the dinning room..

DOMINIC (POV).

I waited patiently for the information am to get about Alisha but there was no positive response from Mike that day.

Luckily the next day,I did my best to hide my anger when he walked into my office..

He told me everything about her,from her school to where she lived,her mum and brother’s name,but he never mentioned anything about her father and I got more curious..

What about her dad?

He left them,when she was still little.

I nodded and do you by any chance know his name?

Yes sir,it’s Adam Benson.

That name sounds so familiar, but were exactly have I heard it From?

The story gets more tougher…….

TBC.
