CHAPTER 6

She was in class, her eyes glued to her notebook as she read through Haven White’s profile. There weren’t a lot of details especially for a conglomerate daughter. Her other sisters and brothers had a lot on their profiles but for her there was nothing as if someone erased something.

It didn’t matter anywhere because she had gotten what she wanted. She didn’t want to love someone simply because of the information she got from the internet, she was going to personally6dig out the information herself.

She closed her notebook and looked at her watch. It was lunch time already but she didn’t feel like eating. She checked her time table and she had no lectures in the afternoon which meant she was free for the day. She was going to leave school and go shopping. She packed her bags and carried them.

“You are leaving already?” Mary asked.

She looked at Mary and hissed at her.

“I’m leaving and it’s none of your business,” she said and left.

But Mary was very insistent because she followed her.

“What exactly do you want from me Mary? You took everything from me and now you want to be friends again?”

“I’m very sorry, I just want to talk.”

“No, it’s already too late for that. You can have him all to yourself and I’m over him already. I have important things I need to do and they don’t include you at all. So, if you don’t want to end up in the hospital, get out of my way,” Amber warned Mary and she left her alone.

Amber smiled to herself and left the campus. Her car still hadn’t arrived so she was suing one her dad’s car while she waited. She drove home where she found her mom.

“Mom, what are you doing here?” she asked shocked to see her at home.

“This is my house, last I checked girl. I should be asking why you came home during lunch time?”

“I have no lectures so I decided to come home and then go shopping,” she said.

“Didn’t you go shopping two weeks ago?”

“I did but now I have a purpose.”

“Are you pursuing someone child?”

“You can say so. I haven’t started yet, and I want to prepare myself.”

“What kind of a guy would say no to my pumpkin?”

“He did.”

“Forget about him honey. He was no good. I never liked him at all. It’s good he is out of your life. Just don’t go for an idiot like your ex,” her mom said.

“Don’t worry mom, this time it is different.”

“You wouldn’t mind showing me a picture and tell me more about this new guy?”

“I will tell you when its time. I haven’t started yet.”

“Let me give you some advice girl. You need to find what makes that person clicks first before you go ahead of yourself. If he likes books then read the books and have the same topic to converse, you understand me?”

“Yes mom, I will keep it in mind. I got to go now,” she said and eloped from her mother.

She drove away from the mansion and went to the mall. The mall was crowded but she didn’t mind, she had a goal. She had seen that Haven was mostly seen with girls which meant that she might be into girls. So Amber was going to turn herself into a very sexy doll that way Haven will never say no to her.

She began her shopping, money was never a problem. It took her about three hours to find three dresses and matching shoes before she headed back home. When she arrived she asked for Haven’s contact details from her mother.

“You finally want to meet her now?”

“Yes, do you think I should go with a gift?”

“Of course, you should. We were not able to give her a gift since she said she was busy and all but I guess she won’t say no to you.”

“You think so?”

“I know so. Just find something not too flashy, something that shows your sincerity.”

2I can find that,” she said and left home again.

Last time she saw Haven, she was riding a motorcycle; so Amber decided to find accessories for the motorcycle. She walked into this shop and found this beautiful leather costume. It was perfect so she bought it.

She just hoped Haven will not condemn it. She took the costume home, the chief maid wrapped the gift and it was all ready.

She took out her phone punched in the numbers for Haven and dialed. The phone was ringing and after the third ring, it got picked.

“Hello, who is this?” Amber heard another woman’s voice on the other side.

“My name is Amber St Claire and I would like to speak to Ms. Haven White, please,” she said.

“Please, wait a moment,” the receiver said.

So for starters, Haven had a secretary which meant she had a job though she didn’t see that on her profile.

“Ms. Haven is out at the moment but I know who you are now. She said you should meet her tonight at Legacy Club at 7p.m. don’t be late,” the receiver said and hung up.

A club, she knew the club. Everyone knows it; she had been there a couple of times with her ex. So that’s where Haven hangs out.

Full of joy Amber took a long hot bath, added some of the salts and herbs her mother brought from her recent trips abroad. She poured perfume on her body, when she was satisfied, she wore one of the dresses she just bought.

It was short, red and suitable for clubbing. She wore her stilettos, took her clutch and left her room.
