"Have you ever heard of Black Eyed Susan?" Her grandmother asked again. "No. "Why all these questions Mama Liya?" She raised her eye brows and stretched her neck. She wasn't in the mood to know about any flowers at all, not when they are more important things to face right now. "I guess you are dumb in some aspects hun." Mama Liya mocked.

I didn't know flowers also has important meaning in life. But........." She paused and sighed. "I don't know if I can be like that. I mean am weak and meek, so am definitely sure I can't survive in this harsh and cruel world."

Chapter Eleven: Weird couple.

"So stupid!"

Debby exclaimed loudly, thinking how it was so easy to change Jane's mind and view about them.

Emmanuel stood akimbo and stared at his wife. Shaking his head, he said, "You should actually go for acting my dear, your acting skills were impressing.

"Wow, I didn't know I married an actress!"

Debby's head swelled up at her husband's compliments.

" I know right. I was way good, and of course you weren't bad too. You went along with the flow, and it was perfect."

She smiled, showing her perfect arranged white teeth and puffed her chest up high, which showed her pride.

"Honestly, I like those kinds of people. I mean people like Jane, so frail and easy to manipulate.

"Oh, I can't imagine how much money I am going to get hahahaha."

He laughed hysterically after voicing out his thoughts about Jane's personality.

"Oh my darling husband." Debby stood up and encircled her arms around Emmanuel's neck. Looking up at him, she continued,

" I can't also imagine how much money I am going to get. I was really right, when I told you we should kill her parents and make her life miserable. If not, we won't be here right now, not to talk of enjoying this massive wealth my dear. "

"You are incorrigible." Emmanuel rejoinder his wife.

"I know." she smiled smugly.

"And I love that." He patted her head like a pet and that earn a frown from Debby, but he laughed seeing how she looks like when she frowned.

Debby, not liking the way he was laughing turned furious and asked sharply, " what?!!!"

"What, what?"

He asked her back innocently and shrugged his shoulders.

He didn't want to annoy her more, saying she looked like a clown when she frowned.

"Now, you are getting me pissed off. You know this is what I hate, when someone tries to turn questions around."

She barked with no damn care, that he is her husband.

Emmanuel sighed and instantly regretted laughing earlier, then he moved backward.

"Just forget it, okay? Put it as if I didn't say anything."

"Tell that to a six years old kid Emmanuel!"

She said and stomped her left foot on the ground.

Emmanuel shook his head and sat down. " Let's talk about how to get Jane to Mr. Nelson's bed."

"Wait....! You mean??" Debby widened her eyes and stared intently at her husband.

"Debby, honestly I wonder how you think sometimes.

"Sometimes you are dumb, and some other times, you are way smart and witty. Why do you think Mr. Nelson took interest in her?

"No way! You think he just want to help her?

"Nope! Not the Mr. Nelson I know. That man will never do that, and am hundred percent sure. So, the only thing he is thinking is how to put his spoon into her bowl, since she is a fresh one I guess."

He uttered Mr. Nelson's thoughts about Jane to his wife and sighed, thinking how strange Debby can be at times.

One moment she is smart and another she is dumb, but well guess no one is perfect.

"Mr Thomas....watch your mouth. I won't take those insults from you, I am always smart, and that's it. No qualms!

"It not that I didn't think that way, I just thought Mr. Nelson can get ladies that are good and way better than Jane. I mean she is still young, or don't you think."

She hissed and look at her husband, crossing her both hands together over her chest.

"When did the ever incorrigible Debby Thomas started pitying a helpless girl hun, or is it not it?"

He curled up his lips in a mocking way and thought,

No way will Debby ever feel sympathy for someone like Jane. Not in this life and not in the here after , so what is she now saying.

"Oh just shut up! Whatever....." She bellowed and stormed off to her room, not wanting to continue the discussion with her annoying husband, who was always trying to press her explode button.

He watched her leave and muttered under his breath, " Idiot..."

~~~~~~~

Meanwhile, at Mr Nelson's mansion.

The robust man in his early fifties laid on his king size bed with two damsels, each on his sides trying to make fun with him. But he seems to be out of the world, as he stared into space thinking about Jane.

He didn't know why the young girl stired so much unknown emotions in him, but he knows he want her, and he is dying to go under her thighs.

Mehn! He was going crazy over her, but he tried to control himself and wait for Emmanuel to bring her to him nicely and smoothly.

He is Mr. Nelson, the Senate president of the country, and one of the most powerful people in Nigeria.

He can easily get anything he wants, but why does he have to wait for Emmanuel, who was nothing but one of the representatives of Abuja in the lower house assembly.

He sighed, because he just wanted to have the girl nicely and smoothly, but what has gotten into him. He thought and exhaled loudly.

The beauties besides him were worried as they heard him exhaled loudly.

"Senator, what's wrong?"

Both beauties asked worriedly.

He seemed to realized that, he has forgotten the beauties beside him and stuttered, " Ha ha, am so sorry...I just,,,,uhm nevermind. Let's get back to our business."

"Okay."

The two beauties chorused together.
