Written by: Chidimma Mirabel
CHAPTER 17?
Jennifer stayed at home sulking in her room.
“I’m sure by right now, Kevin must have proposed to Roxanna” She said.
“I should be happy for her, but why do I feel so sad and jealous” She said again.
Her phone rang. She picked it up and sighed as she saw Catherine name appearing.
“Catherine?” Jennifer said.
“Where are you girl? I thought we had plans of going to the mall today?” Catherine said through the phone.
She spranged up from bed and walked to her wardrobe.
“Oh yes I forgot, let me just get ready. Where shall we meet?” Jennifer asked as she removed a clothe to wear.
“Meet me at the parking lot beside the mall” Catherine said.
“Alright” She hung up and ran to the bathroom.
She took a quick bath and rubbed her cream then wore her dress. It was a crop top with a blue jeans and some sneakers. She tied her hair in a messy bun and picked up her bag before walking out of the room.
She boarded one of the cars in the compound and drove off to the mall. She parked her car in the parking lot and came out of it.
She scanned round the area in order to see Catherine but she was no where to be found.
She turned and was surprised to see Kevin standing behind her.
“Oh hi Kelvin” She said.
“Hi” He replied smiling at her
*Why is he smiling so much today* Jennifer thought.
“Have you seen Catherine around, we were supposed to meet here” Jennifer said with her eyes scanning round the area
“She’s not coming” Kelvin said.
Jennifer looked at him suspiciously…
He brought his hands to her face, offering her a rose.
She looked at the rose and then at his face. She slowly took the rose from him.
“Thanks” She said smelling it.
“You’re welcome” He replied.
“So how did it go, did Roxanna say yes?” Jennifer asked.
Kelvin chuckled lightly.
“And who said I was going to propose to Roxanna?” He said.
“But you said you will propose to the girl you love?”Jennifer asked, confused.
Kelvin chuckled again and took a step closer to her. She took a step back he continued like that till he pinned her on the wall.
“Listen, I see Roxanna as my little sister nothing else. The only person I love and I will ever love is you” He said with a serious expression.
“Me?” Roxanna said with eyes wide.
He nodded and held her waist.
“Now I’m asking you this, will you be my girlfriend?” He said as he brought his face closer to her.
“Uh, yes!!” Jennifer said, too shocked to record everything that is going on…
He smiled and slowly pressed his lips on her. Jennifer was too shocked to kss him back.
They broke the kss and stared into each other eyes.
“I love you too” Jennifer said feeling unmeasurable happiness…

Nathaniel’s bodyguards ushered the crowd to disperse.
Roxanna walked up to the girls and they had a group hug.
“I’m so happy for you Roxy” Yvonne said…
“Thanks girls” She replied smiling widely…
They broke the hug and then Nathaniel stepped in…
“If you’ll excuse me I’ll borrow her for some minutes” He said holding Roxanna’s hand.
“Sure, she’s all yours” Suzy said.
He nodded and they walked to his car. He opened the door for her to enter and he entered shortly.
The driver then drove them to a classic restaurant.
“Let’s have our first date as a couple” He said and held her hand as they alighted the car.
They walked into the restaurant and booked a table for the VIPs. The food they ordered where bought to them and they began eating.
“Open up” Nathaniel said as he brought his fork to her lips.
She smiled and opened her mouth and he fed her. She chewed on it slowly while smiling.
They ate together while taking turns to feed each other.
*Are they dating?
*Wow they look good together!
The people in the restaurant kept murmuring as they watched the newest couple in town having their moment together.
They walked out of the restaurant with Roxanna holding his arm. Right now it just looks like a dream to her and that she might wake up one minutes or another.
“Babe? I need to go to my studio, you know. For my rehearsal, do you mind coming with me?” He asked her.
“Sure let’s get going!!” Roxanna said and they entered his car which took them to his studio.

“Boss your son has safely arrived the country” A man said
“Good, send one of my men to bring him here” The man said, smoking his cigarette as usual.
__________
A man with dark hair and blue highlights on it descended the stairs of the plane.
He ran his hands through his hair, enjoying the cool breeze. He walked up to two men who were dressed in black suit wearing black shades.
“Welcome back Mr Alec Jenkins. Your father asked us to bring you safely to his head quarter” One of the guards said.
“Alright” He replied with a smile.
He handed his suitcase to them and then entered the car. They mentioned entered shortly and then drove away…

Roxanna and Nathaniel parked the car at the parking lot before alighting it. Roxanna made to walk away but Nathaniel pulled her back and came her.
“All this just feels like a dream to me and scared that I’ll wake up one day and find out that you never loved me” Roxanna said.
He held her chin.
“Hey, this isn’t a dream. I love you and I really mean it, I’ve never felt this way for any woman in my life” Nathaniel said.
Roxanna smiled
“I love you too Nate” She said.
He leaned closer and then claimed her lips. His hands found it’s way to her butt and he squeezed it.
Roxanna shivered, enjoying everything he was doing. They broke the kiss
“Come on let’s go, you don’t want to be late for your rehearsal” Roxanna said and held his hands as they walked out of the studio.

Suzy was walking down the street with her bodyguards beside her as she was speaking to Jennifer on the phone.
“Really he proposed to you” She said.
“I’m so happy for you Jenny, Nathaniel also confessed his feelings to Roxy, it was so romantic” Suzy said on the phone
“Okay see you later” She hung up the call.
“I’m so happy for them” She thought as she was strolling on the highway.
He saw Rulian walking towards her. She smiled and made to wave at him but stopped as he wrapped his hands around her, giving her a hug.
“Thank you so much Suzy. I finally got a job because of you, my mother will be so happy when she’ll hear about the news” He said hugging her tightly.
She patted his back, still surprised by the hug.
“Uh, it’s cool. You’re welcome” She said.
He released her and smiled widely, for the first time.
“So what job did you get?” Suzy asked.
“You won’t believe me, your dad hired me as his personal assistant” He said
“Wow, that’s great then. I’m happy for you” Suzy said with a smile…
“Come on let’s go and celebrate it” Suzy said and they walked away

Yvonne was in Mason house, she was in the kitchen cooking lunch for the two of them when she felt someone arms round her waist.
She smiled as she already knew who it was.
“What are you cooking, it smells so good” He said as he rested his head on her shoulder.
“Well I’m making chicken salad for us, please don’t distract me or else you’re gonna eat it burned” She said as she sliced the carrots.
“How will I distract you? You mean like this” He said and kssed her.
“I love you” He replied and pecked her lips before walking to the living room
Yvonne smiled and concentrated back on her cooking.
“Ohh no, the mayonnaise is finished” She said as she looked at the empty bottle.
“Mason, I’ll be back in a jiffy. Let me get a bottle at the store nearby.” She said.
“Alright be careful okay?” He said from the living room.
“Sure love” She said and fixed her dress well before walking out of the house.
Mason doesn’t like maids in his house that’s why he prefer doing his things on his own such as shopping, cleaning etc…
Yvonne arrived at the store and bought a bottle before walking back home.
Suddenly a car stopped in front of her and the car door opened.
A man came out of it and walked up to Yvonne with a smirk on his lips.
The bottle Yvonne was holding fell and shattered into pieces as she saw who walked and stood in front of her.
The memories of that day when he touched her flashed in her brain.
“We meet again beautiful” Alec said with a smile on his face…

? And I’ll never fall apart!!!?
Nathaniel removed his headset and walked up to his producer and Roxanna.
“You were fantastic as usual” His producer said.
“Thanks bro” He said as they bumped fists.
He turned to Roxanna and smiled
“Like he said you were fantastic” She said with a smile.
“I deserve a treat then” Nathaniel said
He leaned down to where she was sitting and kssed her shortly.
“This is pure oppression. I’m dying!!” The producer said and they laughed.
“Alright we’ll be leaving. See you later Boris” He said and held Roxanna’s hand.
“Alright Nate” His producer (Boris) said
They walked out of the studio and went to the parking lot.
Roxanna made to enter the car but he stopped her and made her face him.
“Why do I seem not to get enough of your lips?” He said.
Roxanna chuckled and stood on her toes then kssed him on the lips.
She broke the kss
“I’m all yours baby” She said.
“That’s temptation. I might ne tempted to…”
“Stop that you corrupted soul” She said and hit him playfully. He laughed loudly
Suddenly a car drove towards them at full speed.
Their eyes widened as they saw the car coming at them.
Roxanna quickly pulled Nathaniel out of the way and they both fell on the ground.
The car stopped and two men came out of the car which masks on and guns in their hands.
Roxanna quickly stood up and scanned through the surrounding. She saw the men approaching them with guns aimed at them.
“Whatever happens, don’t move” Roxanna whispered to Nathaniel and he looked at her confusedly.
Roxanna stood up and placed her hands on her head as she slowly walked towards them.
“Please take me and don’t harm Nathaniel” She said
She slowly walked and stood in front of them. The man grabbed her arm harshly and aimed the gun on her head.
“What if we have fun with her before killing her” One of them said.
Nathaniel got angry and made to attack them but Roxanna gave him the looks which says ‘Don’t you dare’
He stood quiet and clenched his fist…
Roxanna swiftly held the arm the gun was in and then twist it to his back before kicking him on the back.
The other one made to shoot but she ducked a the bullet flew pass her head. She elbowed him on the stomach and then lifted her legs up as she gave him a kick on the face.
She quickly picked the gun he was holding and aimed it on his head.
“Tell me who sent you or else…”
She lifted the gun up and shot it in the air before aiming it on his head again
Nathaniel stood there, completely shocked by her new attitude. She was completely different and the way she fought together with her tone. It looks like she’s good in it.
“What are you waiting for, speak!!” She said in anger. Messing with her is okay, but messing with Nathaniel, she can’t tolerate it.
The second man stood up and made to attack her but she quickly aimed the gun at him and shot his legs.
He pointed back the gun at the man…
“My patience is running down” She said.
“Okay, I’ll talk but please don’t shoot me” He said as he stared at Roxanna with fear in his eyes
