Cho Hei did not know what to say to Nathaniel. After meeting St.gardens, she could not stop dreaming about her grandchild. And seeing her son getting strong headed, she wasn't happy at all.
"Enough with this argument! I don't have the strength for it today! I've already told you, the girl in question, is Korean and I will explain everything to you when you return home!"
"You don't need to bother yourself about anything. You just do your job and leave the rest to me!"
"What job mother?! I don't have the strength for that kind of job!"
"Yes you do, son! In fact, you must have that strength! And I will make it come to pass!"
"Mother!"
"Yes!"
Nathaniel could not believe his mother. He never saw his mother more determined in his life before. It was really new. That was when he realized that, he would have to prepare himself for "the big night!"
After putting a stamp on it, Cho Hei hung up before Nathaniel could say anything more. Nathaniel was so furious and his manager knew that his poor soul would be hurt, because he was the only one present. His eyes became red, seeing the deadly glare of his big boss.
*********
Back in Lagos Nigeria, Cho Hei was very happy to see St.gardens. She walked closer to St.gardens and said to her with smiles. She could not stop smiling.
"Good day Auntie! Thank you for having me"
"You are welcome dear! It's almost dinner time and I know you must be hungry, yeah? Go freshen up first, and then come down for dinner. I will wait for you. A maid will take you there"
"Yes Auntie"
The maid came right after and took St.gardens to her new room. It was a very beautiful and spacious room, with a king size bed and even a walk-in closet. At first, St.gardens thought she would be staying with the maids but was surprised when given a separate room from the others.
She was so happy to be given such an opportunity. She put down her little luggage and when she turned around to look at the maid, she was surprised to see the maid staring at her with an intense hatred. She saw the hatred in the maid's eyes and she didn't hide it from her. St.gardens was forced to ask the maid.
"Please miss, did I do something wrong?"
The maid did not say anything and just left the room. Seeing the maid that way, St.gardens felt a bit worried how her stay would be like in the mansion. St.gardens opened the closet and was shocked by everything in there. There were clothes and accessories right in the closet. She started thinking that maybe the room was originally someone else's. She opened the bathroom door and saw that it was sparkling. Everything needed was in the luxurious bathroom.
"Just one word, "Perfect!"
After settling, she took a bath and went downstairs after putting on her usual clothes.
"You are through, yeah?" Cho Hei asked St.gardens.
"Yes Auntie. Thank you Auntie"
"Mhm!"
Cho Hei looked at St.gardens and noticed she was not wearing the clothes she had bought for her and she thought maybe she didn't like them or that they didn't fit. She had to ask St.gardens.
"Why are you not putting on the clothes that I bought for you? Or don't you like them?"
St.gardens felt really confused. She did not dare dream to be the owner of those clothes.
"I...I am sorry auntie. I didn't know you bought them for me"
"Oh, sorry dear. I just remembered that I didn't tell you about it. They are all yours, ok? Feel free to use anything from that room and tell me if anyone doesn't fit"
St.gardens was stunned. She could not believe Cho Hei bought those beautiful clothes for her. She was very grateful.
"Thank you so much auntie" She blushed.
"It's alright dear. Let's go eat first and we'll talk later, ok?"
"Yes Auntie"
After awhile, they were done with the best dinner she had had for a long time.
"Thank you for the food Auntie"
"It's fine dear. Let's go to my study room and talk more there!"
"Yes Auntie"
