Anna POV
I followed the man said to be called Francis. He stopped at a room that I think is meant for trying on clothes.
“Aren’t these clothes too revealing?” I asked.
“Of course not. They are a perfect fit.” He replied.
I tried the clothes on and they were a perfect fit but for me it’s just too short. I came from behind the curtains and Francis said the clothes are perfect for my structure.
Now, I agree that I have a very good shape but it’s really not something I want to brag about or show off.
Although I really didn’t want to take all those clothes Francis chose but I did at the end after much persuasion from him.
I came out with the clothes in packages and Mr Charles paid for everything.
We left the boutique and he drove me home. He left after dropping me at the gate to my home.
I went inside the house and noticed that I forgot to lock the door and after some thinking, I noticed I didn’t lock the gate as well.
I went to my room and found that all my clothes had been stolen.
“Is this some kind of a prank or what? Where are my clothes?” I said.
I searched everywhere but to no avail.
This is strange but, how come all my clothes were stolen on the same day that I went to a boutique for a new set.
There is really something going on that I don’t know about yet. This is so confusing.
Adams POV
“Yes. Have you done as I asked?” I said.
“Yes sir. We did a clean job. Nobody saw us.” A boy answered from the other end of the phone.
“Very good. The money will be delivered to you any moment from now.” I said.
“Okay.” The boy replied.
I called Mr Charles. He picks the call after it buzzes three times.
“Hello.” I said.
“Yes sir?” He replied.
“Have you done as I said?” I asked him.
“Yes sir. I have. I just dropped her back home now.” He replied.
“Okay. Now be fast and return here. There’s a lot of work to be done.” I said.
“Yes sir, I’m on my way back already.” He replied.
I ended the call.
Very good. Everything is going as planned. And that too on the third day of the bet.
Today will only be the big reveal. Tomorrow I shall start my real plan.
Dave POV
Everything is just so weird today. I don’t even know where Mr Charles went after seeing Mr Adams.
I may not know much but I really don’t think a secretary should be absent from the company.
“Dave!” Mr Adams called from inside his office.
I went straight to his office.
“You called sir?” I asked.
“Yes. I want to inform you that I will be coming for dinner at your place today.” Mr Adams said.
“Really? That’s nice sir. My mother will be happy to see you. She has really being expecting you. She wants to personally thank you for everything you’ve done for us.” I said.
“Wow. She is that eager to see me?” He asked.
“Yes sir.” I replied.
“That’s good. I’m sure my presence will shock her.” He said.
“Shock her?” I asked.
“Yes. You said right? She is eager to meet me.” He said and laughed.
“Oh. Okay.” I replied and also laughed.
“Okay Dave. You can leave now.” He said.
“Okay sir. I said and left his office.
I have to call my mother and inform her so she can be prepared.
I dialed my mother’s number and she picked my call almost immediately.
” Hello.” She said.
“Hello mother.” I replied.
“Okay Dave. Why did you call?” She asked.
“I called to inform you ahead of time of a special visit.” I answered.
“Special visit? From who?” She asked.
“Mr Adams. He said he is coming over for dinner at our place.” I replied.
“Really? That’s good news. Okay cut the call let me go and prepare everything.” She said.
“Okay bye.” I said.
“Bye.” She replied and I cut the call.
I sat back on my desk excitedly. Although part of me just didn’t feel right about all this, I mean the recent behaviors of Mr Charles and Mr Adams but I decided to shrug it off instead.
After all, what could possibly go wrong?
“Dave!” Mr Adams called.
“Yes sir.” I answered after entering his office.
“Get me a plain a cup of coffee.” He said.
“With or without cream and sugar?” I asked.
“With. I’m in a really good mood today.” He said.
“Okay sir.” I replied and left for the coffee.
After getting it I returned to his office and gave it to him.
“Thank you.” He said and I left.
He must really be in good mood today because this is the first time in all these weeks I’ve been serving him coffee that he ever said thank you.
Seriously. What’s going on here?
The time I’ve been waiting for is finally here. After all the long wait it’s finally time to leave. Everyone exited the company one by one. Including Mr Charles.
Just me and Mr Adams with a few workers were left.
Mr Adams finally came out and that too smiling so hard.
“Let’s go.” He said and I followed him to his car.
“So, tell me, you were saying that your mother wanted to see me?” He said while we were in his car.
“Yes. She said she wants to thank you personally. Nobody has ever done for us what you are doing. I really appreciate and so does my mother.” I said.
“Ha ha ha. You really think so?” He asked
“Yes sir.” I answered.
“But there is really nothing great about what I did. I’m just helping you two out. It’s the way I am.” He said and smiled at me.
Okay. I know anyone can change but this is creepy. Mr Adams is acting so weird.
We drove all the way to my home and we alighted from the car.
I and Mr Adams walked passed the gate and went to the door of the house.
