Demi formed a steeple on his table cranking his neck, the door to his office open, and Adesua appeared followed by a quite laden chauffeur, the chauffeur offloaded all the items on the centre table, making do his exit. 

Adesua came round his table giving him a swift kiss 

"Hey baby, i brought you lunch,your favorite." Adesua said opening up the food flask

Demi sighed heavily, "Adesua i am quite busy, i will be having guests over. And what's with those?" Demi asked gesturing to the items her chauffeur had dropped on the table. 

Adesua smiled leaving his side, "oh those?our wedding attires arrived from Dubai today,sorted them out . These are yours brought them over so you could take them home,i misplaced my key to your place, would have dropped it off myself." Adesua said, spotting a gold chain amongst the items she brought it over to Demi "I ordered this in last minute."

Demi spared the gold chain a glance and almost choked, it was a customized chain with Adesua boldly written across it, 

Adesua snagged the chain quickly on his wrist, she sighed satisfactorily, 

"perfect!!" she said, giving his wrist a peck

Demi grimaced, "You expect me to wear this don't you?" 

Adesua shrugged "why not? we are to be married, can't i buy my husband to be a gift?" she inquired

Demi flung the chain off his wrist, "Don't tempt me Adesua, i don't want this chain, you had better return it, this wedding is not a love match remember? The cameras are not here so quit the pretense."

Adesua smiled bitterly, "The sooner you realize that you've lost that b***ch the better for you... "

Demi made to slap her, 

"You want to hit me abi? Hit me!! Because of one stupid girl

. Its just that you're senseless, you're still pining for the girl that her family almost ruined your father if not for my father's generous help."

Demi slammed his fist hard on the wall pacing his office, "Don't you dare call her names, she is way better than you, you slut!!"

Adesua shook her head, "I guess i deserved that, fine i cheated,shit happens and it's gone. But brace up Demi,you're getting married to this slut in two weeks, so deal with it." Adesua made to leave, and at the door she turned back, "And the next time you try to hit me, i will call off this wedding and your father can rot in jail for all i care." she concluded leaving the office in a cloud of annoyance.

Demi stood rigidly fighting back the rage within, he swiped his hands across the table bringing all that was on it down in a crash, his secretary came in, 

"Sir, please take it easy..." the secretary prompted

"Get the hell out of my office, NOW!!"Demi commanded

The frightened secretary ran out. 

He went to the fridge at the side of his desk and picked up a drink, coming over to seat on the lush carpet, he removed his shoes and tie, and took a full swig from the bottle. 

It was crazy how life was, one minute he was the son of a multi billionaire with no one to answer to but himself. The next minute he was at the mercy of his cheating Ex and getting married to her in two weeks. Maybe his Mom was right, he shouldn't be sacrificing his happiness to save his father, but then to what end? 

Anjola had told him point blank that she couldn't marry him, and that there was no future for them, thanks to his father. She had even thrown the ring back at him when he had pleaded holding on to her, and she had mailed all the things he had bought for her from an untraceable mailing number. 

He had lost his only happiness and sunshine because of the mistakes and greed of his father...

"Anjola" he whispered, 

"Anjolami." he whispered again. 

And for the first time in two months, Demilade Olaotan gave way to the bitter tears of pain and heartaches he had being holding back for months... 

"Oh Anjola please come back." He cried, clutching at his chest

His secretary, stood by his door fighting back tears of sympathy, whoever made her boss cry this way, must be very endearing and she was going to find this Anjola her boss was aching for, even if it was the last thing she did on planet earth. 

She owed him that much
