Are you jealous that I have a good relationship with her? Well it’s too bad that the woman you choose is not one who would like to bear the names ad animal to make you happy.“ Terry teased again, getting Quinn angry the more.

He wanted to make a fuss, but we were all enjoying the moment, so he joined in.
“The lawyer just got back to me. Our shares have been retrieved, and the court has sent out a summon letter to all the men involved, so by komorrow morning, we should be in court to hear from them.” Ivy spoke with her gaze fixated on her phone like she was reading the words out
Sometimes I feel like telling her to loosen up a linle and have fun but then I remember that she’s working for me and her input is much needed.
For someone whose parents are reputable CEO, she doesn’t have to work this hard, but I guess it’s in her to put all her energy into her work.

How they put their differences aside and came together to help me out of the mess and how they returned to fighting themselves after the problem
Ivy, post one of the evidence online. The video where they were having a chat about telling Maya about me.” I instructed and she replied. “Yes ma ani, it would give the public an understanding about why they’re seeing them in court and also help us gain supporters who would insist that that be taken to court Ivy reasoned, and I smiled at how quickly she understood the situation.
“Good girl, now, get to work.” I instructed again and signalled a walter to come and pack the used plates from the table.
Just then. Terry’s phone rang, and after the short conversation, he stood from his seat, and 1 knew it was time for him to go.
I have to leave now Call me if any matter arises. He said but Ivy replied quickly, “Can I come with you in your car! I need to stop by my house and get a change of clothes. The news had me running out of the house without a proper shower. She said and Terry nodded.

“You look pretty much okay to me, though, I remarked, seizing him up closely, and he coughed at my words, trying to keep up his act
“Okay, fine. What is it you want me to do to pay you back for your help.” I asked with a nonchalant expression.
Refusing to grant him his wish would only keep me here for long, and I was exhausted; I needed to go rest at home.
“Nothing much, you’ll promise me that you will grant me a date while we’re out of the country for the event.” He said
His words struck a string in my heart.

The event was upon us,

“Hello! Are you there?” He asked with a searching gaze and I blinked a couple of times, returning to the present with every blink.
“I totally forgot about the event, I exclaimed with widened eyes.
“Well, it’s not too late. You can still make some arrangements, and with the help of your team, you’ll be right on time.” He said with assurance.
I would do that, but I was so tired now that I had to go back home and have a good rest.
I’ve had to rush out of the house twice, barely woken and I was feeling the impact now.
“Well see about the date if I meet up and go for the event. For now, I need to go home and rest. I’ve had a long day.” I said with exhaustion, getting up from the seat.
He followed suit and we walked out of the restaurant. I saw some customers whisper to themselves from my peripheral vision as we walked out but I pretended like I didn’t notice it..
It was a relief that they didn’t charge at me or try to attack me. The news had gotten many people troup into the restaurant and although most people came to try out the dishes to confirm or debunk the news.
Some Even threw fits, saying that they shouldn’t have to pay for their meals since they were coming to try it out, but any which way, they’re coming to confirm the news meant more sales for us and a busy restaurant.

A lot of customers came with their phones to record the condition of the restaurant and post on their pages online, and the comment section was going wild; some disagreed with the restaurant doing a good job, and some praised the service and food of the restaurant more, writing down their pleasant experiences as well
Quinn drove me to the gate, and I was surprised that he didn’t bug me with words this time around; maybe he too, was tired, or he wanted me to
