Money can’t buy love Mr President
Lowering my eyelids, I glared at him, placing my folded arms on my chest, and tilted my head as I spoke, “Excuse me sir and are you listening to yourself? Can you repeat yourself in front of my boyfriend? ”
“Forget about my son. He has no say. My son is a player, a big one at that. Look here, I love you. Since the first time I set my eyes on you, I can’t straight anymore. I want you to be my woman and please don’t say no.”
As I watched this old man talk, I couldn’t help but laugh, “Look here, Man. I reject your love. I don’t love you. So don’t expect me to fall in love with you because it won’t be possible, okay? Go get one out there and stop betraying your son or being a disgrace to him. Imagine how he is going to feel right now, have you ever thought of that?” I spoke calmly, my eyes centering on his pupils.
“Look here woman,” he mimicked my actions and continued, “I want to treat you better, I want you to be my woman, take over my soul spirit, and body. Whatever you want is all yours,” he paused, grunted and stood up while I lifted my head to look at him above.
He pulled me by my chin and said, “Five hundred billion dollars, and be my woman. Would you still refuse it?”
Defiantly, I stood up and looked into his eyes, “Money can’t buy love, Mr President.” He laughed softly and said, “Are you selling love, my lady? Don’t give me your love, just say yes to being my lady. That’s all that I want. Is that not simple to understand?”
I sneered, shook my head slightly, and said, “You can’t buy me. I’m not a mere chattel. To hell with your five billion dollars, I love my boyfriend and I am going to spend the rest of my life with him so go get a life sir, respectfully. I’ll be leaving now.”
I pushed the chair behind me and walked out of his face. As I got to the door, I pulled it and looked behind, his face staring into space and his hands in his chin. I smiled inwardly and left the room.
“Did I just reject five hundred billion just to continue acting for Jayden? So Jayden lied that I was carrying his baby. What if the president is just testing me to see if truly the love between me and his son is truly real?” I questioned myself as I walked down the hallway.
Walking to my new room, I opened the door and got in to see Jayden lying on the bed. “Why’d you take so long and what did my father say to you?” Jayden lifted his back from my bed asking.
“Are by any way jealous Jayden? Why I took so long is none of your business okay? Besides, I feel so sad for you. Your dad is totally something else,” I inhaled and sat on the side stool in the room.All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.
“What’d he say? Let me guess, he is still disturbing you right?” He shook his head slightly and looked down.
“Oh yes, your dad wants me to be yours.”
“What does he really want? He wanted me to be committed to someone and just when I did what he wanted, he wanted that person back! What sort of father is he?” Jayden rhetorically asked.
Snapping him off his reverie I muttered, “It shouldn’t bother you after all, it’s just a game right? So what did you want to say to me?”
“It’s not a game Ava, I love you. Why don’t you see that? I’m jealous, yes I am. My dad knows I used to be a player, I bring home ladies every day over the weekend and he got tired of my habits…”
He continued to talk and I smirked, “Look, I don’t love you please and that’s just the truth about it. I can’t fake saying I love you back, please don’t talk about love. Let’s just focus on why we are here okay?”
I placed my hands on his palms and touched them softly and looked into his eyes. “I’m not sorry about that either,” I added. Did I really have to add that?
“That’s okay,” he muttered and I turned my face to my left to pick up my purse which was there but he turned my face quickly and pressed his lips on mine while I opened my eyes wide.
Surprisingly, I didn’t resist, I placed my hands in the air and when he broke from the kiss, he muttered, “I’m sorry, I just.”
“You didn’t have to do that, did you? Can I now terminate the contract? You’ve kissed me and you’ve confessed that you love me, you breached it so, contracts breached…”
Cutting me short, he replied, “No no no no, there was a clause, you didn’t read it well. You don’t take your time to read contracts? You skipped that part because I know you thought we wouldn’t kiss. Well, I’m sorry, you are still stuck in the deal here, there’s no signing out my lady.”
My ears made a loud sound in it, “Can I get another kiss?” he asked, biting his lower lip and I shook my head in disapproval, at that moment, the door creaked open and from my side view, I could see that it was the president.
Pretending like I didn’t see him, I pulled Jayden closer to myself and slammed my lips on his. Grabbing his hair slightly and closing my eyes, his hands slipped under my top. I wanted to put his hands away but I stopped because of the president who I still saw was standing there.
As Jayden slipped his hand under my shirt, he cupped my breast and ran his hands all over my body, while our tongues fought furiously, especially his.
The president coughed and we broke the kiss. “Oh Dad, you were here? Watching me and my girlfriend?” Jayden asked sarcastically and the president smiled, “Do your thing, guys,” he turned his head and walked out.
I knew that he was jealous as hell. “Yeah, goodbye,” Jayden mumbled, “You know what? you really playing the game well and yes, you deserve more triple of what I wanted to pay to you,” Jayden whispered happily behind my ears
I looked at him and said, “Nope, that’s not what I want. I want to take half split of whatever your father was meant to divide to you or else..” I fluttered my eyelashes at him funnily.
“Or else what is going to happen?” he asked slowly, his voice hoarse and icy with his face dropping into a frown.
“I won’t tell you. It’s your choice either to accept it or not.” I replied and he placed his hands on his chin for a second, “Okay, after I get what I want, you’ll get your share,” he said.
“Bring the deal, and let’s sign it,” I crossed my legs and lay flat on the bed.
After signing the deal, he went out of my room.
Later that evening at the dining table, the smell of the savoury food blocked my nostrils as I took a bite of it. “So Jayden, when are you planning on getting married to your girlfriend? Are there any plans for that yet?” The president broke the air in the room.
Jayden turned to look at me with a smile on his face, “In seven months, before then, but for now, we want to enjoy ourselves Dad. We ain’t in a. hurry,” he brought his face closer to mine and planted a kiss on my cheeks, “Are we in a hurry baby?”
I smiled and looked at the president, “No, we are not in a hurry,” I giggled softly and planted a kiss on Jayden’s lip. The lovey dovey act we displayed in front of the president made him shake his head and mutter, “That’s fine, I didn’t say you both should blind my already dim eyes with your kisses, please stop,” the president muttered we all burst into laughter.
“Oh… I sense jealousy there,” I let out and took a bite of food in my mouth. “After this food, see me Jayden, I want to have a Tete a Tete with you.”
Jayden narrowed his eyebrow, “Why?”
“It’s a private conversation. That’s why I said Tete a Tete, stop acting dumb in front of your girlfriend man,” his father mocked and I rolled my eyes.
“Seems fun here, may the best man win!” I screamed in my head.
After food, Jayden and the president moved away, while I walked upstairs to my room to rest. Jayden came inside after an hour, with a smile on his face, walking towards me. He scooped me off the bed and said, “Yes! Just what I wanted. He has signed it off to me. This wouldn’t be happening without you, mmuaaa,” he plastered his lips on my smooth face while spinning me in the air while on his arms.
“Finally, I can now get out of this trouble,” I said in my head then I beat his back as I yelped, “Please put me down, I’m feeling hazy.”
“Okay okay,” he spun lesser and dropped me on the floor. “So what next? We get to leave now right? And we share the share, right? Now that’s what I’m bothered by, I was already tired of your dad, ” I took a deep breath and he winked, “Oh yes, I’ll hand yours over to you right away but we’ll have to leave by next week. So we don’t get too suspicious. You understand right?”
I nodded, “I understand”.
One week later, with my Luggage by my side and Jayden’s hand wrapped around me, he kissed me on the face and the president stood in front of us, “It was fun to have you both here, I hope to be seeing you here.”
He brought his hands out and shook me, and embraced me in a hug. “Bye bye,” he waved, freeing me from his hug and Jayden opened the door for me to get in.
Waving back at him, I slid myself into the car while Jayden turned to the other side of the door and sat behind the wheel. He shut the door, gave one wave, and hit the pedal out of the big mansion.
At this moment, I can’t express how much happiness I felt to finally get out of that house and be free. Jayden looked at me, with his hands on the wheel, he stopped me in front of Lilac’s place.
“I’ll get a bigger home as a way to say thank you, is that okay with you sweetie?” he said and I shook my head, “That’s fine,” he embraced me in a hug and freed me, he crossed, opened the door for me and I came out of the car.
Picking my stuffs along and helping me drop it in front of the house while I knocked for Lilac to come to open the door, he gave me a hug and whispered, “Bye baby girl, I’ll send you the location of your new house which I’ll buy for you okay? I’ll send it to you this evening.”
Lilac opened the door, her face sweaty and her eyes red, “Hello, jeez … who do we have here?” Lilac screamed and jumped on my body. “Oh my goodness, I miss you so much.”
Jayden stood watching, then he coughed, “I’ll be leaving her with you miss. Make sure that you take care of her very well,” Lilac smiled and I waved back at him as he left.
Taking my luggage along with her, she whispered, “Girl is that the president’s son? He looks way hotter than Hardin.”
Letting out a giggle, I followed her behind and my eyes met Kayla who was sitting half naked with her body sweaty even as the room was buzzing with air from the AC. Her eyes met mine.
