Regaleon's world seemed to stop for moment. He kept on staring at the girl as she walked up the stairs.
Lisa!!!!.
No. Snap out of it. Lisa is dead. It's just a coincidence.
Greg noticed his absent mindness and smiled softly, he tapped him gently causing him to snap out of his daydream.
"Mr Grafton." He called out gently like an elder coaxing a child." Are you okay??."
Ahem!!!
He coughed lightly before regaining his cold demeanor. He faced Greg but couldn't help but cast a glance at the stairs one more time.
"So what's going to happen??. I need my money...
Greg interrupted his speech"I know you want your money. But right now i don't have the money. How about i repay you differently??"
Regaleon frowned after hearing what Greg had said." What do you mean??"
" I noticed your gaze. It seems like you are interested in one of my girls"
Regaleon laughed lightly."And how do you know that"
"The eyes never lies. The way you looked at her..."
" Daddy!!!!! "
Before he could continue his sentence another girl walked into the house to where they were sitted and wrapped her arms around Greg's neck. Regaleon coughed lightly as he looked at his wrist watch indicating that he had no time. Noticing this Greg freed himself from her grip.
"Sammie. Don't you know that it's rude to interrupt me when I have a guest??" Greg asked gently.
" I'm sorry about that." Sammie rose her head up to see the guest they had only to be shocked.
" Mr Grafton.!!!".
Hearing his name, he couldn't help but frown a bit. She looked familiar but he couldn't remember where he had seen her.Her face lit up instantly. She smiled widely at him.
Oh my goodness. I know that I'm gorgeous and could make any man fall for me but i didn't expect him to fall so easily. This is so perfect.
Sammie said to herself as the smile on her face got wider.
"Do you know him??."
Greg's voice interrupted her inner thoughts. She nodded still smiling." We met earlier today. Mom introduced me to his mom and we went to see him together."
Bingo!!. So she was the Samantha girl his mom brought to see him. She looks different.
"Mr Greg. Please i don't have time for this chit chat. I have other things to deal with, time is definitely not on my side.
"Oh. Yes,yes. Very true. Sammie go upstairs okay. Daddy is having a business talk"
Sammie looked at her dad then Regaleon before she nodded." Ok daddy"
Immediately she left, Greg's facial expressions turned serious. He looked at the man sitting opposite him looking nonchalant as ever.
"So what if I'm interested in one of your daughters. Are you willing to give her up to pay your debt??."
"If Mr Grafton is okay with the arrangements. Of course I would willingly do it."
" Fine I'm interested in one of them." Regaleon blurted out causing small smirk to appear on his face and a surprised look on Greg's face.
"Who among them has caught your attention. Perhaps it's sammie."
"No "
Greg's gaze upon him darkened. If it's wasn't Samantha then who could it be."So who???"
"Call them out." Regaleon said calmly as he placed his finger on his chin. Even when he wasn't doing anything he still looked elegant.
"Linda" Greg called out." Could you please call the girls down"
"Ok "
"Knock knock."
The door opened, reveling Samantha" what is it??." She asked rudely but it wasn't something to fuss about to linda. She quickly conveyed her message to them.
" Your dad has summoned the three of you"
"The three????. Are you sure."
" Yes the three."
She said before leaving the hallway. She could hear Samantha grumble and scoffing as she walked away.
Urgh. Sassy brat. Linda could help but mumble.
Few moments later ,the three girls walked downstairs fully dressed and their face fully made up except one who dressed casually and without no make up.
The three girls stood in front of him looking like servants waiting for the approval of their master. Regaleon looked at each of them careful as Greg introduced them.
" Well. Mr Grafton these are my daughters. This is Skyler, she's the first daughter from my first wife Louise. Samantha from my second wife and sonia the second from my second wife" Greg said while showing them up like goods in the market.
Regaleon looked at Skyler, studying her facial expressions. She looked like she wasn't really charmed by his looks like her sisters. So nonchalant. So carefree. So..... Beautiful.
Beautiful???. What the hell are you thinking nigga.
just then Greg's voice came "so whom are you going with"
Ahem!!. He cleared his throat.
" Skyler" he said coolly as he looked at her for a reaction and as expected she was shocked staring at him with confusion.
Samantha laughed nervously" uhmm.. it's Samantha.Mr Grafton"
Regaleon looked at her with a cold and nonchalant look. " I'm aware what your name is miss Samantha. But you see, I prefer skyler over you. "
" Uhmm...Mr Grafton. I think there's a mix up. I mean you can't possibly want me... You've met my sister before so.... So a wonderful person so please chose her. "
For the first time she spoke to him. She laughed nervously while trying to change his mind. Her nervousness made something in his cold heart melt.
" Sorry darling." He said as he stood up and walked to her then bent slightly, touching her head " my mind is made up"
Samantha's face twitched in anger seeing the scene in front of her. She stomped her feets angrily as she ran up the stairs. Sonia followed suit, since he had made his choice there was no use standing there. Skyler and Regaleon were left in an awkward situation. She stared at the huge man in front of her as if she was trying to decipher the reason behind his actions but he found her confusion cute. He touched her nose lightly as he chuckled softly.
" Wilson will be here tomorrow with the necessary documents for our agreement. After everything is completed I'll take what's mine home. "
" Sure thing. Mr Grafton".
He turned to the girl behind him and smiled." be good okay.I'll be back tomorrow for you. "
