Mysterious Night Stand With A Pimp Turned Mogul by John Rice (novels to read in english .TXT) 📗

"I'm all ears," he said.

"Erm ... I would be going to Nelson's mansion today to celebrate Mr. Nelson's birthday party." She said.

"Who is Mr. Nelson?" Ben asked.

"An old man, he's actually my ex husband's father but I'm not attending the party because of my ex husband, I'm attending it to honour his father,"she said.

"Is it a night party?"

"Yes, it is" Ida responded. "It's not in the contract that I can't go to night party." She quickly added.

"As a married woman, you should know that night party isn't advisable. Going to a night party will make you look irresponsible." Ben said.

"I'm not going to a club, it's an house party but it will only take place at night. That doesn't make me irresponsible, no offence," Ida frowned.

"And if I tell you not to go?"

"How could you? That I'm married contractually to you doesn't mean I can't have my freedom. Afterall, I'm not breaching the terms of the contract," Ida really wanted to go and she didn't want him to stop her.

"I won't resist your freedom but what if you get hurt? Can you really trust your ex husband?"

"I thought it was said in the contract that you can never care for me? Why does it sound like you are caring now?" Ida asked.

"If anything happens to you, it will have a direct effect on my son, do you understand?" He asked.

Oh! So he was only concerned about her cause of his son?

"Well, I'll be fine. I assure you. Please don't stop me," she said. The look on his face clearly depicts that he doesn't want her to go.

"Okay."

"Meaning I can go!" She asked to be sure.

"Meaning you can do whatever you want," he stood as if he was angry and when he was walking away, she stood and asked," where is Beau?"

"I don't know." He soon faded off her sight.

Why was he angry? Ida could not place a reason behind it but he loved how he didn't force her to stay. She had wanted to ask him about Beau but now he's long gone.
