Flora was very nervous, she pressed her eyes on this handsome man who was dressed in a tailored suit that fits him perfectly.
Flora got to see his face clearly as he walked closer to them. Since she had seen him in the magazine severally , she knew that this man was Orville.
Gosh! There was never a way that this cold looking handsome man will ever like her, her nervousness increased.
"Orville, nice to see you in person again after many years," Rudolph said.
Orville glanced at him disgustingly and set his gaze on Flora, as their faces met, Flora lowered her head shyly but summoned courage to raise it up again. This was the man she would be in marriage with so why should she be shy before him?
Eventhough his aura was very domineering.
"Walk close to him," Rudolph shouted at Flora when he saw that she was only standing still. He thought that that was what Orville was waiting for.
"How dare you shout on her? Are you tired of living?" Orville's firm , masculine and sexy voice came through.
This was the first time that Flora would hear Orville speak and one thing that stood out in his voice was how obsessed he sounded. He didn't know her before , he had never seen her before but he was ready to kill her father for shouting on her.
"I...I'm so sorry, forgive my manners," Rudolph pleaded earnestly.
"Erm..." Rudolph tried to speak, he already had tears formed on his forehead. He was close to his father and although Rudolph was powerful too, he knew that Jimmie was not worthy of being dared by anyone in this country talkless of his son who was twice as rich as him and by far the richest man in the country.
"She's the one you will get married to, she's my first daughter," Rudolph was finally able to speak.
"I know, you may leave," Orville said and Rudolph nodded, he walked to the driver's seat and didn't take any more glance at either Orville or Flora, he drove away.
"Sweetheart, come with me," Orville's sweet voice came through making Flora surprised.
He had a cold and aloof look on just now and was harsh and daring when speaking to her father but at the moment, his expression had softened and he looked welcoming and even more adorable.
"Thank you," Flora said and wanted to take a step forward but Orville stretched his right hand and said," let me hold you and lead you in, princess."
Princess? He called her princess? Flora didn't even know whether to blush or all this was just to get married to her.
She agreed to let Orville hold her hand and she lead her gentlemanly inside the manor.
When they got inside, an old woman appeared, she looked old but walked smartly.
Hannah was a personal maid to Orville's mother for many years but because of how she was so good to Orville whenever his parents were absent , or went on a business tour and would be left with Hannah, he decided to employ Hannah to work for him in his house.
Hannah knows the kind of food that Orville likes since she had been cooking for him for many years.
"Is she the one?" Hannah asked, she had an elated look on.
"Yes, mama," Orville responded and Hannah ran to Flora.
"Welcome, miss. You look adorable. That is my room," Hanna pointed to a room that was at the far end by the left.
"When you are done with Orville, you can come to me so I can show you around and tell you other things you need to know." Hannah said with a sticky and attractive smile on her slightly wrinkled face.
"Thank you, ma," Flora responded and Hannah glanced at Orville adorably before walking away.
"Princess, please have your sit," Orville gestured and she sat on the couch gently.
Why was he respecting her this much? She was only eighteen and looking at him and from what she had read about him, he should be twenty six years this year.
"I'm sorry for the inconvenience this caused you but the agreement for us to get married was made at an early age of our lives when we had no say," Orville said.
Flora found courage from nowhere and spoke," but you are a billionaire, right? I believe you can tell your father to cancel such agreement. I still need to go to school, I can't get married now."
Flora hoped that he would reason with she said.
"Although I'm twice as rich as my father, I dare not to disobey him, there is a reason behind that to which I will tell you in the future," Orville smiled and stood all of a sudden," my bad!" He exclaimed and walked away.
While Flora was wondering where he went to, he came back with a bottle of water in his hand and a glass cup, he poured the bottle of water into the glass cup and gave it to her.
Once Flora received it, Orville said as he sat elegantly," my father told me to always welcome a visitor with water first before engaging he or she in a conversation. Who knows...you might be thirsty."
Flora was forced to smile, this man is so polite, she thought and drank the water. She wasn't necessarily thirsty but the body always needs water.
Flora dropped the empty glass cup on the empty center table and said," thank you."
"My pleasure, princess." He smiled.
"As for your school, I don't see any reason why you should stop schooling just because we are married." Orville said.
That was so thoughtful of him, so he would allow her to keep going to school? Flora was so happy thinking about this.
"Thank you, I really want to continue schooling and I'm glad you gave me the chance," Flora said."You are welcome, sweetheart." Orville said and stood," give me a minute, please." He walked away.Flora had to glance at herself again to be sure it was really her that was being respected this way.He came back and placed a document on the table and a pen on it, he dragged the table before her and said," princess, you should sign this document as a seal that we are married."Flora was thinking that they would have to go to the civil bureau to get the marriage certificate but he had already got it. Well, he was a billionaire anyways, anything is possible for him.Flora sighed and then, thought about the surrogacy she underwent a few days ago. What if it lead to pregnancy? How will it feel like being pregnant for another man while being married to Orville?She could have told him to give her some
Flora appeared before Hannah and she gestured for her to come to sit beside her, Flora went to sit gently beside the woman."What's your name, beauiful?" Hannah questioned."My name is Flora, ma," Flora answered."You can call me hannah," Hanna said with a broad smile. The look on her face was so affectionate. Like a grandmother looking at her granddaughter."Alright, ma," Flora said."I know you feel nervous that you got married to him, but Orville is a very good man," Hannah said."He's a good man!" Flora exclaimed."Yes, I have lived with his family for fifteen years so I can tell you that he's such a good man," Hannah said."I guess I'm lucky then, although there are articles about him that says he's a good and kind man but I find it too good to be true, many billionaires are always aloof and arrogant," Flora said."There are few that are really nice
Flora was inside her room on a Sunday evening, she had been given new school wears and she was arranging it all in the wardrobe.She heard some sounds coming from the living room, the sounds were not of two people otherwise she would have thought Orville was having a conversation with Hannah.It was as though three people were speaking. Since she was already done with what she was doing, she decided to feed her eyes on whom the third party was.She walked out of the room and saw Orville standing beside another lady who should be around twenty four years old. The lady had many expensive golds on and a heavy make up on her face. She looked fair and beauiful moderately.Hannah was at this time walking to the kitchen leaving Orville and the lady at the living room.Flora wondered whom this lady could be to him, perharps his sister, she thought and walked closer to them.Once Orville saw Flora, the smile on his
Flora fluttered her brow as she saw the look of a deep obsession on his face. She had only met Orville two days ago and he was this obsessed about her already.Flora swallowed the lump in her throat and didn't know what else to say."You can keep reading, sweetheart," Orville said and stood from the bed.He went to sit by a couch that was by a side of the room, he opened his laptop and began to review some of the activities of his company.Flora couldn't read for a while, instead, she kept stealing glances at him. He was backing her but he looked adorable.Flora wondered if this man had fallen in love with her so soon? Either he loves her or not, they would have to part ways after two months anyways. She wasn't ready for marriage.Flora read few more writings on her phone before falling asleep. When she woke the following day, she didn't see Orville in the room.She had no idea if he even slep
All through the hours at school, Flora wasn't really happy. She had an heavy heart. She was wondering what the following day would look like in school.Bennie was really her thorn in the flesh. Since she had no friend, she walked outside the school alone and sighted a familiar figure by her left sight.She walked towards him and realized that it was the driver who drove her to work. He must have been waiting around so he could drive her home."Are you done, madam? So I can drive you home?" He questioned."Yes...but, I want to check on my brother at the hospital, I haven't heard from him since I moved to Orville's house," Flora said."Mr. Orville said I must do whatever you want so I will drive you to the hospital, if that pleases you," the driver said."Thank you," Flora walked inside the car and told the man the particular hospial that her brother was. Soon, the man began to drive."Have you
Flora cried for few seconds before walking towards the exit of the car. It's a terrible feeling seeing the only person you have left in the world caring for a different somebody and abandoning you. The one who was supposed to be there for her is clearly against her.She cleaned her tears with her handkercheif and walked to where the driver's car was, she pleaded with the man to drive her to where her family hospital was and the man agreed.Once they arrived there, Flora waddled around the hospital and soon found her brother laying on the bed.Once Tony saw her, he called weakly and hopelessly," little sister, I'm in pain."Flora let tears flowed down her cheek, she doesn't like to cry before her brother but she could not hold back the tears today. She was very heartbroken. It hurts badly to see her brother in pain. She walked closer to him and placed her hand on his forehead," I made a mistake by trusting that beast w
Orville and Flora went to sit at the dinning table, "I hope you enjoy the food." Orville's voice was soft."Most definitely," Flora said gently. They ate quietly, Flora couldn't beleive that she would be able to eat despite the predicament that she was currently going through.Flora stood since she was done and said," I want to do some assignments inside.""Alright, sweetheart," Orville watched her walk away. He stole glances on her as she walked away.He loved everything about her and he won't let anything or anyone hurt her.While Flora was inside, she received a call from their family doctor and she answered, since Tony was at the family hospital, it was normal for her to receive a call from the family doctor. She only hoped that this call won't be a bad news."Hello, Flora," the doctor's voice came through."Doctor," Flora called."Well, your brothe
Orville wondered why Flora had not come out of the toilet for the past three minutes, he was worried and walked to the toilet. He planted a knock on the door and said gently," Flora!"It was only then that Flora came off her thought, "I'll be out now."Flora cleaned her face with a towel and then walked out, she tried as much as possible to hide her nervousness. It was even a good thing that they will divorce in the next two months.She hoped that before her belly start protruding as a prove to the public that she's pregnant, she would have divorced Orville.She can't imagine how Orville will feel if he found out that she was pregnant for another man? He would be hurt and probably chase her away.Indeed, Orville beleived that Flora was pure and a virgin. He even ordered one of his men to look into Flora's past and they didn't find anything bad about her.So Orville trusted her and was not rea
