Mysterious Night Stand With A Pimp Turned Mogul by John Rice (novel24 TXT) 📖

"Yes, where is Dad and uncle Perry ?" He asked.

"They will be here to take you soon, I guess," she said and ruffled his hair.As she attempted to stand in order to finish dressing up, her phone rang.

She picked up her phone when she saw that it was Perry, "hey Mrs. Ida, can I ask if Beau is awake?"

"Yes, he is," Beau answered

"Oh! Please help to being him outside, I'm waiting," Perry said and hung the call up.

Ida then said to Beau, "Perry is outside."

"Okay," the little boy stretched his two hands signalling for Ida to carry him. Ida carried him gleefully and asked, "I was informed you were having headache yesterday. Do you still feel headache?"

"I'm fine now," the little boy answered. Ida was happy to know that he's perfectly fine.

Ida carried him outside and handed him over to Perry, she watched as Perry made him sit gently on the seat beside the driver's seat then he drove off.

When Ida arrived at work the following day, while signing in the time she arrived at work in the time book, she heard a familiar voice behind her.

On turning, she saw her mother.

She frowned and asked, "what are you doing here ?"

"I'm waiting for you outside," Geneva said and walked outside.

Ida turned back to the signing book and finished signing after which she walked out. She walked over to the side her mother was and said, "why will you come to my work place?"

"Watch your mouth! I'm still your mother and you better learn to talk to me politely," the woman cautioned.

"What do you want?"

"Ida, I know I have been very hateful towards you since you were young but I need you to listen to me. Mr. Edmund, the man you were to get married to paid a sum of one mlion dollar to marry you but before the day you even came around, we already spent half of it. Now that you have refused to marry him, we have become indebted to him and he's threatening our family day and night and this is all your fault."

"Excuse me! Did you say it's my fault? Was I the one who told you to accept the money from him? You want me to marry that ugly old man, huh?" She asked painfully. Sometimes she wonders if it was this woman who actually carried her in the womb for nine months cause the hatred she has for her was just too much. She won't even mind selling her off.

"Listen to me, I have come here quietly without causing a drama, find a way to get a sum of five hundred thousand dollar so we can add it to the five hundred thousand dollar we have with us and pay Mr. Edmund otherwise, when next I come here, I will make a scene." The woman threatened.

"Mum, why are you like this? Where did you expect me to see half a million dollar?" She almost cried.

She would feel very horrible if her mum suddenly storm inside her department to cause a scene. Why is her family a thorn in her flesh? Those who have a loving family are sincerely lucky.

"I don't know... Just find it, I don't care what you have to do, find the money and call me as soon as you get it," as soon as the woman said this, she walked away.
