” Cause I will soon go away.” Ivy muttered not knowing they heard her.
” What, why will you?” Louisa and Ma. Rose said in unity.
Ivy looked at Ivan not knowing what to say.
***********
” What do you mean by that Ivy?” Ivan asked and Ivy looked at him in surprise.
” I… Am sorry, I was uttering rubbish.” Ivy said smiling and they believed.
” Finish eating Louisa, I will drop you off college.” Ivan said.
” No no brother, don’t bother. I don’t want those people to start hovering over you again.” Louisa said pouting.
” Really? No problem.”
” Thanks.” Louisa smiled and he nodded.
A while later, they were done eating. Ivan went to his room to get his suitcase while Louisa went to arrange her bag.
Ivy looked at Ma. Rose who was busy arranging the dinning while some maids helped her to clear the dishes.
Ivy cleared her throat and Ma. Rose looked at her.
” Do you want something?” Ma. Rose asked.
” Erm, I want to ask something from you.”
” Go on.”
” Since you have been Mr. Ivan and Louisa’s nanny since they were little, I thought you might know what Mr. Ivan would want for his birthday, I mean I want to get him a gift but I don’t know what to get him.” Ivy said and Ma. Rose smiled sadly.
” Thanks dear. Even though, it’s not evident on his face. I know he really wants his parents badly, I know he missed them and want them to come back as soon as possible, so if you really want to gift him something. Try your best to get his parents here, he might be a Billionaire but everyone deserves their parents love.” Ma. Rose said and Ivy’s expression changed.
” But how will I contact them or convince them to come back.” Ivy said.
” I will give you their contact, but trust me it’s really hard convincing them cause they love their work a lot.” Ma. Rose said.
” I will try my every best.” Ivy said smiling.
” Thank you so much Ivy, girls like you are rare Even though he is always cold towards you, you still wish to give him a great gift. Thank you so much.” Ma. Rose said and hug her which she reciprocate.
Just then Ivan start descending from the stairs with his suitcase with him and they quickly disengaged from the hug. Ma. Rose left.
Ivan’s phone rang and it was Bryan, he sigh and pick it up.
📞: Hey buddy. Bryan said over the phone.
It was on loud speaker so Ivy could hear everything.
📞: Why are you just calling, you could have called next year. Ivan said and both Ivy and Bryan Chuckled.
” What’s funny?” Ivan said and Ivy nodded her head.
📞: Common buddy, I have been busy and Dad just came back. You didn’t call me too, I guess since your PA is with you, you’re not that lonely anymore. Bryan said and both Ivy and Ivan looked at each other and Ivy quickly looked away.
📞: Hey, what are you spewing. Ivan said.
📞: Let’s meet. Bryan said.
📞: I have a very important project to do, until I complete that I don’t think I will be free. It’s a big project, I have to concentrate. Ivan said.
📞: Of course, I trust you. Bryan said.
📞: I will hang up now. Ivan said and cut the call after Bryan responded.
” Let’s go.” Ivan said already going.
Ivy looked at him in surprise and when Ivan noticed she wasn’t coming, he looked back.
” What are you waiting for?” Ivan said again.
” But where?”
” Office of course, I just said there’s a big project at hand.” Ivan said.
” Alright then, let’s me go change.” Ivy said but Ivan stopped her.
” You look great in the dress, let’s go.” Ivan said, but when he realized what he said, he faced back in frustration.
* What was I thinking?* Ivan said inwardly.
Ivy was actually wearing a simple, a little bit tight blue gown that stopped above her knee.
” Thank you sir, let’s go.” Ivy said walking towards him and like that they left the house.
★ Noah’s place★
Today is the day Noah is to present his so called girlfriend. He called Melody over and she arrived at his house.
She press the doorbell and Noah himself came to open the door. As soon as he saw her , he was left flabbergasted by the angel in front of him.
Melody was wearing a yellow flay gown with black heels and black handbag. Her makeup looks so pretty.
” Hey, what are you looking at huh?” Melody said jolting him out of his imaginations.
” Umm, sorry I just couldn’t recognize the beautiful angel at my front as Melody, sorry.” Noah said and Melody blushed.
” Come in, mom and dad are waiting.” Noah said and stretch out his hand which she took and they entered.
His parents both were sitted on the cushion obviously waiting for Noah’s girlfriend.
” Mom, Dad.” Noah called and they looked at them.
” She is really beautiful.” His mom whispered to his Dad.
” Good afternoon sir, afternoon ma.” Melody greeted respectfully and to both Noah and Melody’s Surprise, they ignored her.
” Have a seat.” Noah said and she sat down.
She gaze around the house and it was looking so big, as in how can the parents of a boy who’s working in a mere restaurant build such a beautiful house.
” So what are your qualifications.” Noah’s mom said and Melody looked at her in surprise.
” Umm, I graduated college with an excellent grade.” Melody said smiling.
” Your background?” Noah’s dad question came next and Melody was feeling a bit wierd.
” I..umm. has both my parents, with a little brother who is staying with my aunt and uncle in another country.” Melody said.
” I wasn’t referring to your parents or something, poor or middle class?” His dad asked again, this time Noah look at his father signalling to him to speak nicely. Melody cleared her throat
“I..erm, middle class.” Melody said softly.
” What!” Noah’s mom sprang up and Melody stood up too surprised.
” Noah, how can you even bring a middle class girl here to my Mansion, I warned you not to work in that restaurant and here you are bringing me this thing.” His mom said and Melody’s eyes widened, tears already filled her eyes.
” Mom!!” Noah yelled angrily.
” Don’t you dare shut me up, she is not in your class at all. Is that why you have been avoiding Lisa? Don’t she knows who we are?” His mom said again and Melody looked at her in confusion.
” We are the Rodriguez, the Rodriguez car dealers.” His father said and Melody’s eyes widened.
* What!! They are the Rodriguez, the famous one? I don’t understand what going on.* Melody said in her head.
” Mom, I told you not to say that here.” Noah said.
” Noah, I don’t understand a thing.” Melody said.
Just then, a pretty classy girl walked in straight into Noah’s arms and Melody’s eyes widened the more.
” Noah baby, how are you?” Lisa said still hugging him.
” Lisa let go off me now.” Noah said coldly and she let go immediately.
Noah looked at Melody who just stood there in shock, he walked closer to her.
” Isn’t this the stinky Ɓîtçh you have been ignoring me for huh?” Lisa said.
” Lisa!!!” Noah yelled at her and she flinched.
” Don’t you dare call her that.” Noah warned coldly and Lisa gulped down nothing.
” Melody, listen to me. Am sorry, I hid everything, my identity, everything. Melody, am sorry.” Noah said holding her hand and Melody jerked off her hand instantly.
” Did you bring me here to disgrace me? Isn’t this the girl you said you want to get married to. You hid your identity from me, such a big thing from me. And silly me, came here trying to pretend I am your girlfriend and and I..I was disgraced. Don’t you dare show me your face ever again.” Melody said and walked out of the house angrily.
” Melody…” Noah tried to go after her but Lisa held him.
” She is not even your girlfriend.” Lisa said.
” She is not my girlfriend but I love her okay? Listen to me Mom and Dad, am never getting married to Lisa. I love Melody and no one else.” Noah said and walked off to his room upstairs.
Both his Dad, Mom and Lisa stood there in shock. Lisa clenched her fist and gritted her teeth in anger.
