Chapter 3

"You know you do not need to have a long face right? You are more pretty when you smile," Marco said, as he tried to make Isabel laugh at his jokes and he was succeeding in doing that. It wasn't too difficult for him to make her smile and that was something he loved about her the most.

"Now, tell me what are you doing here at this time of the day. No school today?" she questioned but Marco pretended to be mad at her, asked her whether he was not welcomed there and Isabel, turning her gaze at him, burst out laughing at what a pretentious human being Marco was.

"No, that is not what I meant," she defended herself.

"I know you didn't mean it because, you cannot resist such a handsome young man like me, right?" he added, but Isabel, peeking at him with so much laughter pressing to come out of her mouth, she called him a little idiot and they both exploded with laughter while she hurried up with her father's meal.

Sweat could be glimpsed at running down Melissa's face when she knocked on her boss's office and was waiting for him to give her the go-ahead to walk inside his office.

"Come in," he said, with his focus on his laptop, and when Melissa approach him, her lips, were so heavy too when letting out the news but she had to do it.

"Sir Carter, I have been able to reach the Hall's and..." she was interrupted when he slash in and asked,

"And what."

"Mrs. Hall is begging for another week so that she can rally up some money for her debts. She pleather her husband's condition was not getting better and the hospital bills were piling up each day," Melissa spoke out and the sight that Scott threw at her, made her feel a huge lump of sweat go down her spine into her pants.

"Call on Lewis and ask him to report to my office immediately and also, prepare the address to the Halls residence, I think I have fo settle this matter once and for all with them," he spoke his mind, and Melissa not wasting any more time, she nodded and left his office to carry out the task she was been given.

Thinking of what to do to them, Lewis knocked on his door and made his way into his office ad once after pushing the door and catching sight of how picked up his boss is, he dared not ask him what the matter was.

"Prepare yourself, you are going with me somewhere now and I need you to drive," he instructed Lewis.

"Copy that Mr. Carter," he responded.

Melissa was done with the information, so walking into Scott's office, she handed it over to him and left. Scott gave the address to Lewis, he told him to go get the car ready and that he was going to join him down in less than five minutes. When Lewis left, Scott looked at his father's pictures, and with a sad face, he draws him that he was going to get back every single penny of his that is hanging outside because he had worked hard for it.

Saying that he picked up his suit on the chair and walked out of his office which so much elegance and glamour that was contradicted the tyrant that he was.

Sitting ad the backyard, after serving her father breakfast and medicines, Marco was still with her and she was grabbing some knowledge from his books just like they often did and everything was going on well. But after some time, they both could listen to a strange voice coming from the living room and in wonder, she asked Marco whether he was listening to what she was listening to and he nodded his head in acceptance.

"Should we go have a look?" he asked already getting on his feet but Isabel was scared to the core and had no idea of what to do. Finally approving Marcos's words, they both directed themselves to the living room.

"Welcome Mr. Carter, what a pleasure to have you here in our house," Mrs. Hall spoke out with a smile on her face but Scott did not look like he was sharing the same joy with her.

"Thank you but I do not think this will be necessary as I have not come here for a visit. Did my secretary call you or not?" he went straight to the point and after heeding to his question, there was sweat that had already settled on June's face, and her husband too had not much strength to talk about anything.

"Yes, Sir, she did but I explained the situation, to her and promised that we are going to any every dime that we owe your company," she responded shivering in fear. Lewis could see the fright in her eyes but as usual, he could not do or say much because Scott was the boss. Turning his gaze to have a look at Mr. Hall, he could tell that he was very sick but with his stone heart, he had no remorse for him as all he wishes for was his cash.

"Looking at your husband, he does not look like he is going to be able to refund my money soon enough, and I will not want to go on extra measures with you, if not, it won't be pleasant," Scott mumbled leaving June in a terrible state with her mouth drawn backward.

"I beg of you, have mercy on me and my husband for we are going to reimburse everything." As she was pleading, Isabel and Marco, walked into the piece, causing Scott and Lewis to turn back to have a view of who had just walked into the compartment and when his eyes caught sight of the beautiful young lady with an ova face and finely shaped nose, he was astonished by her beauty.

Her puffy cheeks fixed her face while her bulge eyes wade so adorable to see. She was having heart-shaped lips with her hair sleeping on her shoulders. Scott looked at her without wanting to take off his eyes and was bewildered at the beauty that he was having before him, her natural state had captivated him while the little flourish dress she was having on, exposed her full thighs that were looking so fresh and adorable.

Realizing how lost Scott was after seeing Isabel, June being a smart lady, she decided to use it to her benefit, and just as expected, she released a bomb which made everyone in the piece shocked to horrify bones.

"I have a proposal for you Mr. Carter, why don't you tell my daughter to work for you as a make of anything you want, while we gather the money to refund to you? Trust me she is very apt with work and she will not cause you trouble," Mrs. June muttered with no shame and her proposition, left everyone in amazement but Isabel who was directly involved, she could not believe what her ears had just heard and in an attempt to better understand she screamed out,

"What?" with a tear dropping down her eyes.
