Davis took his leave after jotting down some of the instructions. Charles refocused on his work when his landline rang, and his secretary informed him that his sister wanted to see him.

"Hey, bro." Sandara entered the room gracefully, wearing a pink shirt, a blue skirt, black shoes, and carrying a blue bag. She sat down without waiting to be invited, while her brother looked at her disapprovingly. She seemed unfazed by his reaction as she went to the fridge to grab a bottle of wine and attempted to open it.

"Little troublemaker, this is an office, don't bring your lack of manners in here." Sandara glanced at her brother with surprise, her mouth agape. She took a seat across from him, studying him closely and locking eyes with him.

"Look who's talking, a company owner who make love with ladies in his office," she remarked with a sardonic smile. "But I'm not here for that today. How have you been, big bro?"

Charles ignore her, he frown as her continue to work on is system.

"You can't ignore me, you know that. I have not been around for a while now and here I am now. Don't you miss me" sandara asked smiling but Charles continue to work ignoring her.

"Okay, I'm sorry I don't mean to be rude." Charles was pleased with the apology and he sit up to give her attention.

"Won't you like me to give you gist about my trip?"

"Sandara why are you here" Charles asked.

"Okay, I'm here to congratulate my brother on his new achievement. My friends were the one that call me and break the news to me. I'm so happy and proud of you" she went to Charles and give him a big hug. His heart melted.

"Thanks so much dear. So how was your trip."

"My trip was very fine as you can see". Sandara stood up flaunting the ring on her finger to her brother face

"I see, this is what everything is all about. I guess this should be the fourth time you are be propose to with a ring and the second in this year". Sandra frown as she take her sit.

"What's that suppose to mean?." She asked giving a mean look.

"You better take yourself serious, if not no man will take you serious. You are always after money and flashy lifestyle. Living large without any source of income, that is one of the reasons I can't settle down with any lady because you are all the same," Charles said hissing out loudly and looking away from sandra.

Charles knew he have really hurt Sandara feelings and he look for a way to correct himself.

"I will send money some money into your account to celebrate with your friends." He knew this will cheer her up a little and he was actually right. Sandara give a lovely smile and take her leave. Charles make a call through to his personal assistant to cancel all schedule he have for the rest of the day and he get back to work.
