At the Emmanuel Anderson jewelries.
Emmanuel and Anita are discussing about the new jewelry designs but Emmanuel's eyes and mind are locked at her , he does not seem to be focussing on what Anita might be telling him.
" You got it , sir ".
" Ehh ...!"
" I mean you got what I was saying?"
" Yeah___ yeah. You said that _____ ,that".
Emmanuel starts to stammer,he seems to know nothing of what was told to him.
" Are you in a good condition today, sir? , you don't seem to be alright".
" Of course ____ , am alright why can't I be when you're beside me?"
Emmanuel says as he hold Anita's hand. Anita also hold his hand tight, as if she don't think of letting him go forever.
There eyes lock to each other, Emmanuel's heart fluttered with an electric shock, his heart quivering with hope he just couldn't believe that Anita has hold his hand so tightly.
The smile on Anita's face just make him to feel as he is in the paradise.
" You look just like an angel". Emmanuel says to Anita as he pulls Anita close to him.
" You should let go of my hand or else they will find us in this way". Anita says to change the topic that Emmanuel has started.
" I will let go of your hand on one condition. Just tell that you feel the same way as I feel about you".
Emmanuel puts Anita's hand close to his heart.
" Can you hear how my heart quivers for you? It just can't stop when ever you are close to me.
My mind can't focus on anything but only you, I must admit that I didn't get whatever you was saying but I heard the melodic tone of your voice ringing in my heart".
Anita pulls her hand from Emmanuel's chest.
" Well I _______ , I". Anita stammers ." You ,what?" Emmanuel says with excitement. "Okay, I admit that I feel the same way you feel about me but..."
" But what?"
" But your parents won't let us to be together. We're not of the same status , you're rich and powerful and who am I ?
Am nothing".
" See, I don't care what others have to say about us, all I care about is for the two of us to be together.
If they cannot accept you, then...".
" Then what?"
" Then I will leave everything behind that does not believe in our love and go faraway with you.
We will go where no one can be against our relationship.
" Are you sure ?, you can do that just because of me?"
" Of course , as long as you're willing to be with me.
So can you please be my girlfriend , miss Anita Ricky ".
" Of course, Mr Anderson. Who am I to say no to a handsome guy like you".
Anita drew herself close to Emmanuel's embrace, Emmanuel's heart felt a surge of electricity flowing in his veins.
" Are you really serious about this?" Anita asks Emmanuel as he gets off his chest.
" Of course, why should I lie?"
Few weeks later, at the Anderson mansion.
Emmanuel's halt his Range Rover in the parking lot.
As a responsible gentleman, Emmanuel opens the car door for his girlfriend.
He gently give Anita his hand and takes her out of the car.
Inanita side the mansion,the business tycoons are greeting each other.
Marcus Anderson also busy talking to his fellow business men.
Looking at the entrance of the mansion,his eyes landed on his son walking towards the audience.
Wrapped his arm in an unknown girl's hand.
Anita has worn a golden _ sleeved ,side slitted dress which brought out her rounded hips and her wasp waist.
Oops! I forgot to say,the event is set to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Emmanuel Anderson jewelries company.
At the same event,is where Emmanuel will introduce his new business partner and his girlfriend to the world.
But will the Andersons accept Anita as their daughter -in- law?
I think that is not for us to judge , let's just find out from them.
Marcus Anderson walks towards to his son, Anita feels resented after seeing Marcus Anderson.
Her body starts to get nervous, and she start shivering.
" Are okay?" Emmanuel asks Anita.
Anita nodes the head to tell him that she is okay. But honestly, she might be lying.
" Don't worry, he won't try to hurt you so long as am here besides you".
Emmanuel assures Anita , Anita gives him a smile.
Before Marcus Anderson reaching where Emmanuel and Anita are, Josh Rocky stands Infront of him.
" Oh! Mr Anderson ,I never knew that I will have to meet you again not as your son but your son's business partner.
Nice meet you in part two". Josh says to provoke Mr Anderson.
" Get off my way".
Mr Anderson says as he gets Josh out of his way.
Before going far, Josh holds his hand.
" Why are so in rush, dad? ,you're afraid that Emmanuel will ask why you're standing here with me after hurting my ex- secretary and trying to convince me to cancel the contract?"
"So , you're the one who told him that?"
"Of course,I wasn't the one,dad.
Maybe..... , gosh! Am afraid to say that my brother no longer trust you".
" You....".
Marcus Anderson says as he point his finger in Josh. Anita who is standing at the bar with Emmanuel sees them.
" Come on , sir. I know that you and your wife don't trust me that much.
But there is no need for you to threaten me.
And, I never knew that your family once had a son named Josh".
Josh speaks loudly which grabbed the audience's attention.
See, if you wronged Josh Anderson in the past as the rumours whisper, then that has nothing to do with me.
Am Josh Rocky,not Josh Anderson".
Josh speaks so loudly which grabbed the audience's attention.
Marcus Anderson and Claire Anderson feel embarrassed. Emmanuel Anderson and the audience cannot understand what Josh Anderson is trying to say.
" Josh , can you please stop this? You're spoiling everything".
" Keep calm, Mr Emmanuel Anderson.
I just need to clear things with your parents".
" What is happening in his mind? ,what game is he playing?
I need to stop him ,he might spoil everything.
Anita says in her mind as she walks towards Josh and Marcus.
