Chapter 9

Josephine's father told his personal assistant to prepare for his company share holder's meeting, "are you going to see her today, Is she going to come? " Josephine's father didn't burge an edge to his wife's question " everyone should be at alert Josephine can be spotted, ensure you get her by all means, okay?" They all responded in the affirmative, their cars took off to the company's premises, Sophia was seen sitting with her father in the car, they all entered the conference room for the meeting, news men were at the hall way to interview them on the new development of the company shares. Josephine's father looked around for who could have been the so called largest shareholder, after he got to the conference room he then saw an empty sit, before he could ask, the largest shareholder of Soph and Jos group of companies arrived, news men were all over, "talk to us" "how old are you" "who's your father? How could you have gotten such shares at your age?" the meeting started with the chairman commencing the meeting he said "two people sold their shares, my daughter and honourable clingthon but the person who bought the shares is not..." Everyone gazed at the door as an elegant, Smart and handsome guy entered the room. " who's this?" " Why is he here " can he be the largest shareholder we're expecting? " Different murmuring sounds fills the hall. Sophia said to herself " no way!! Felicity! Maybe I am mistaken" and to think Sophia's father is not thinking the same. " Can you introduce yourself young man " says the company secretary " I am Clinton Felicity Abraham the son of Mr clingthon" Sophia was amazed "what!" " " Oh! No way how could that be possible?" she shouted at the top of her voice, everything went on well, the deliberation, it's time for meal, Sophia went to meet Felicity is all of this a joke, that you are the one whom Josephine gave her shares to? I should have thought better about it, but you're also Mr clingthon's son, it's more complicated that way right? Why were you then working with us"

"Sophia, I know you have a lot of questions, when you see your sister she'll give you the whole gist " Sophia asked if Josephine will be coming "yes she'll" news men were seen running "why did you give up your shares" " did you give it freely" "did you sell it" "why did you do it " she then answered them "do you want to catch the biggest fish? Come along" on entering the banquet hall everyone was enjoying there meal. Josephine ran to Felicity's arm and kissed him publicly, is he really her "boyfriend or what?" There was murmurings amongst everyone "Why does she have to do that " " isn't that lady the chairman's daughter?" Josephine's father tried to talk but his lips are numb he tried to talk but nothing was coming out. He only stood there watching the whole scene, "are you going to marry him?" Says one of the news men , everyone was silent to hear her response, for like five seconds she kept them in suspense, his father could hear his own heartbeat with the silence. "Say no" he said in his mind, Josephine looked at her sister Sophia smiled, and modded implying she'd say yes, "what did you say to that, are you dating him?" "Yes! We are dating, my father gave his consent some days ago, am I right dad?". Her father smiled although it's a plastic smile miracle of mouth opening occured "ah yes I think I had" "Mr collingthon Felicity what did you say about it " " what more can I say? Her father said yes and my father consummated it, that was why he told his daughter to give me her shares and for your information we are getting married next month" Josephine's father wished he could punch them both really hard, even if he would teleport like Barry Allen, but wouldn't want to cause more problem, he also wished the ground can open and swallow him .he smiled yet again and said "yes it's true" he was ashamed, he left not remembering he came with his own car.

Daily newspaper and news headlines talked about the engagement of Felicity and Josephine, future couple with the largest share in Soph and Jos groups of companies social media was set abuzz! , it was when the Chauveau told him to come down he remembered he is at his resident, he then remembered he didn't return home with his men and his car, he entered the house, Josephine's mother was cooking delicious meals, "what's special about today?" He asked his wife, "the fact you are back home happy, I knew you'd feel happy when you'll be back " " so you saw the news already haven't you? You are happy that I am being dragged,disgraced, a stubborn husband? enjoy your meal alone I am not eating" he went to lock himself in his personal room .

"How could you have allowed her enter without you all knowing? "I specifically gave you the order while did you all fail" Josephine's father was talking angrily at his men, "it was a decoy sir she made a disguise of herself with another lady, we all went after the wrong person unknowingly, she dressed exactly like your daughter, she was a good runner, i couldn't beat her with sprint, same with every other guys, she suddenly stopped when she's taken us far from the company's environment, before we knew anything, some bad guys with big biceps and broad chest was seen coming after us, we started running, until I heard a bang on my head, next thing I heard was a hard slap from this useless Felix here, bringing me back to life, he should have left me alone if slap was the only available means for me to wake up, I am sorry for the failed mission " "we are sorry for the failed mission " they said in unison Josephine's father was seen laughing hard this time, it wasn't faked, "you should have gone for comedy instead of wasting your talent here. You guys should leave now"

Felicity and Josephine came to Josephine's parents house, "my daughter you are welcome" Josephine's mother was happy to see her again "where have you been, how have you been?" Her mother further asked, Sophia gave the answer on Josephine's behalf " she was fine all this while, thanks to Felicity and some of the guys working with us, they're so kind and generous, they helped her with daily meal" " hmmm Josephine you don't have to tell me that I am evil before I'll know that I am, Felicity could have called his wealthy father to deal with me all this while but he didn't, I like your courage and wisdom in making everything normal, although it was against my wish, maybe I can rewrite the history, you guys lied against me right to my face , you guys, you are magical, I was transfixed, caught unexpectedly, This time I want to give a speech about your engagement publicly, and your company assets. " What!" Everyone was amazed. Felicity was startled then said" Dad!! Thank you so much" Sophia was happy that she said to Josephine " I think we now have a new daddy now" everyone was happy including me, you heard me, don't ask me, following your heart! and doing what your heart clicks makes you successful, following other people's map for you will only make you their specimen, don't be someone else's specimen.
