7 Getting to know each other.

Kelvin kept staring at Taraji as she is way beyond his expectations and she seems a little more difficult to handle than he expected so he found himself in a tight corner contemplating on what to do and at the same time Taraji was busy planning out her next move in her head while the waiter brought their food and drinks.

The food they ordered mainly consist of chicken salad for Taraji with a glass of freshly squeezed juice and water while Rice and braised beef with beans and a bottle red wine for Kelvin and they both ate in silence as it was incredibly awkward between the two so they could only eat in silence while Kelvin is secretly stealing a glance at Taraji.

upon seeing the way and manner she is eating gracefully and quietly , he is thrown off balance because that was beyond his expectation. Based on what his father told him, he had expected to see something else but he calmed himself down and thought of how to re strategize and cripple her.

Meanwhile while they were both lost in their thoughts, Stephen and one of his men had just walked into the restaurant disguised as handy man who came to check on some faulty equipment in the restaurant but unknowingly the came to spy and plant cameras and hearing device so they could monitor Kelvin and his activities. When they were done planting the devices they both went to sit down on a table behind Kelvin and Taraji and also ordered for food and drinks.

While waiting for their order , Taraji stood up excusing herself to go freshen up in the restroom and a minute later Stephen did the same.

Taraji walked so fast as she was trying to control herself from vomiting her food due to the anxiety she is feeling so she didn't notice she was been followed by someone so she just rushed into the restroom forgetting to lock the door which gave Stephen the opportunity to sneak into the restroom unnoticed.

Stephen quickly hid behind the door when he heard Taraji flushing the toilet after her business and came out to clean herself properly while looking all worn out and tired so she blown out an air of relief leaning by the sink by the mirror.

Dear Lord give me the strength to go on this painfully journey, help me to crush this foolish man and his father's plan and also disappoint and destroy the enterprise of my wicked aunt and her daughters, I have no one, money , resources or man power to foil their plan but i rely on you to help me and give me a way of rescue. While she was saying this, Stephen as recorded her words and snapped her picture immediately sending it to her brother while he sneaked his way out of the restroom to go join his guy while waiting for his brother's next command.

Kelvin is getting worried that she took so long to come back so he decided to go look for her but as he was standing up he saw her coming so he sat.

Am sorry I kept you waiting I just lost track of time.

It's ok . Today went well more than I expected and am glad we were able to meet so when will you be free for us to meet again as I expect us to officially meet our parents and discuss the wedding itself asked Kelvin?

Well as you know my Aunt is the one in charge of everything so I will ask her and get back to you if you don't mind giving me your contact number where I can get you.

Oh that will be great. He collected her phone and input his number while he did the same for her so he excused himself and took his leave. Akira just sat there on her chair unmoved staring into the street lost in her thoughts while tears were dropping from her eyes but she quickly cleaned her face when she realized where she was and her surrounding so she stood up with a determined looking on her face telling herself she has to be strong for the battle ahead of her is not for weaklings, she needed to be strong in order to overcame and put all evildoers right in hell where they belong even for her parents.
