" So you mean you and Henry are now dating, like you're dating the school's hottie?" Presh asked and Lily nodded with a smile.

" Gosh! My friend is dating Henry " she almost screamed but Lily covered her mouth and the last part came out muffed..

" This is the reason why I never wanted to tell you last night cuz I know you would go around spreading the news before my arrival today" she said.

" You don't have to blame me, it's out of excitement, I'm just over excited " Presh gushed.

" Same here but you should learn self control, cuz you're overdoing things literally " Lily rolled her eyes.

" Whatever, anyways I can't wait to hug my inlaw to be" she beamed.

" Seriously?"

* Henry is here

* He's looking as hot as usual

* Gosh I can't stop crushing on him*

" He's here!" Presh screamed and before Lily could talk, she ran to him,hugging him tight.

The whole class stared in awe, like what's going on?

Lily bowed her head shamefully.

Henry didn't hug her back, he just stood motionlessly..

" You should get use to being welcome like this every morning cuz you're now my inlaw" she whispered and Henry chuckled understanding already, guess Lily has told this crazy friend of hers that they are now dating..

He smiled at her as they both walk in properly,

what's going on?"

* Are they dating?*

* I'm curious *

* She hugged him*

*I'm jealous*

" So you mean you'll be a married man soon?" Raphael asked .

" And you don't have a problem with it?" He added.

" Why would I, Am sure my father choose her cuz she'll be beneficial to De Elites" he replied.

" Wait are you still obsessed with being the chairman of De Elites?" Raphael asked surprisingly.

" I can't give up, I'm definitely taking over after my dad, so I have to do all I can to remain in the track" he replied.

" You're already the CEO of this big company aren't you satisfied?" Rapheal asked further

" You can call me greedy I don't care but I won't give up untill I become the chairman of De Elites" he declared.

" I just pity the poor girl, it's going to be a loveless marriage " Raphael sighed

" She must have been aware as well " he replied undisturbed.

" What if your dad gives the chairmanship to one of your younger brothers?" Raphael suddenly asked.

" That's not possible, Henry is too childish to handle that position " he shrugged..

" What about Ryan" he asked.

" He's dead" Lionel replied bluntly and Raphael spared him a surprise gaze

" Did you receive a call or did you visit his burial ground?" He asked.

" Even if he's alive, he's dead to the Lugard's family so there's no way his going to be an opposition to attaining that position" he replied boldly..

Gosh! Is he even a human, or one of the demons that was chased from heaven?

After washing her hand, Lily walk out of the rest room, she almost screamed when she opened the door to see Henry standing in front of the door but he held her mouth preventing her from screaming.

" Yeah it's me" he said and she calmed before he removed his palm from her mouth.

" What are you doing here when, lectures is currently going on?" She asked.

" The class is boring without you and I missed your pretty face" he replied and her cheeks flushed red.

" But you shouldn't skip lectures" she said playing with her finger.

" Ok then I'm sorry angel, I won't skip classes again, hope I'm forgiven?" He asked.

Later in the day« Saint's mansion »

" Aww I'm so happy for you, my little niece is now a grown up girl, like she has a boyfriend now, I'm jealous" Theresa gushed childishly after Lily told her about Henry's proposal last night.

" C'mon aunt you're making me feel bad" she pouted .

" Was just kidding, I'm happy for you babe" Theresa hugged her.

" Dad!" Lily rushed to hug him immediately he entered the living room.

" Princess" Saint hugged her back.

" How was work today?" She asked carrying his bag.

" T'was stressful but I feel better now after hugging my princess" he replied.

"Aww I'm jealous " Tessy said after walking up to them.

" You're always jealous " Saint shook his head and they all giggled .

" Have you guys had dinner yet?" He asked.

" Nope" Tessy replied.

" We are waiting for you" Lily added.

" Sorry for keeping my princesses waiting, I'll be down in a jiffy" he took his bag from Lilly and hurried up while Lily and Theresa went back to the dinning.

« 25minutes later

They just finished having dinner,

" Dad you said you've something important to discuss with me tonight" Lily started.

" Yeah, you'll be getting married soon" Saint said bluntly.

Lily and Theresa exchange glances before laughing out loud simultaneously.

" What's so funny about what I just said?" He asked confusedly.

" I'm getting married soon or you're getting married soon?" Lily asked.

" Make it clear we obviously didn't hear you well" Theresa added.

" Lily is getting married to Lugard's first son" he said again.

" Wait you met with Lugard yesterday and you already planned a marriage with his son and Lily?" Theresa asked.

" If it's a joke, you better stop it cuz it way too expensive, it's 21st century how can you just decide to marry me off to just anyone without my consent" Lily said angrily.

" It's not without your consent cuz I'm letting you know already " he defended.

" I'll just pretend I didn't hear anything " she stood up .

" You don't have to pretend cuz you heard me sound and clear, we are having a dinner date with his family tomorrow " he added, Lily glance at him and without a word she walk away.

" Bro this is not fair and I'm sure you know " Theresa said.

" Getting my daughter married to the best family is not fair, tell me how?" He requested.

" She has right to choose for herself and besides she's way too young to start thinking of marriage stress....

" There's no stress and there's nothing like she's too Young, am her dad and I know what's good for her" he stood up.

" Better go talk to her but if you're not going to convince her then don't go to her at all " he said before walking away.

Next day«««

" Lily " Theresa entered the room after knocking for several minutes without receiving any response from her.

She saw her laying on her bed staring into space.

" Don't tell me you're like this just because of what your Dad said last night?" She inquired sitting next to her on the bed.

" Lily " she held her hands and Lily faced her.

" Dad was joking last night right?" She asked with teary eyes.

" He wasn't but you don't have to worry, let's attend the dinner date with him and you're going to declare right in presence of the groom's family that you're not interested and I'm sure your Dad won't be able to force you by then" she suggested.

" Are you sure it will end well?" Lily asked.

" Yes trust me" she assured and Lily hugged her..

Her phone stared ringing they broke the hug to see the caller's ID as babe.

" Aww someone's baby is calling" Theresa teased..

" Aren't you going to pick up?" She asked as she watch the ringing tone ends.

" I don't want to, I won't be able to face him without clearing the issue on ground" she replied.

" So you won't be going to school today?" She inquired.

" Yeah" she replied and Theresa sighed.

Later in the evening «« Lugard's Mansion »»

" You're still not dressed what's wrong with you, you wanna get into problem with your dad?" Ruth scolded after entering Henry's room, he's still on shorts and singlet.

" I'm not in a good mood mom" he replied.

" What happened?" Ruth inquired.

" I've been calling her since morning she isn't picking you, she is not responding to my text she wasn't in school as well and her best friend has no idea on what's going on with her" he explained.

" And if I can guess it's your new girlfriend right?" Ruth asked.

" Yes" he replied despondently .

" Did you guys have issues?" She asked again.

" No, we were cool" he replied.

" Then stop over thinking, I'm sure she's fine, she'll reach out to you as soon as she can okay" she assures.

" She better cuz I'm getting sick" he said

" Lover boy, c'mon change into something else let's go" she patted his shoulder.

««««*** An Expensive Restaurant***

' I wonder what's taking them so long ' Theresa thought waiting for Lily and her Dad at the entrance.

Saint demanded to have a word with Lily in private before they go meet their supposed inlaw.

" Finally" she breathed when she saw them coming.

" Let's go" Saint said leading the way.

" Hope everything is okay?" Theresa asked trying to figure answer out from Lily's expressionless face.

Lily only nodded before following her dad.

After exchanging pleasantries they all took their seats round the table for 8.

" We have two extra chairs are we expecting more guests?" Saint asked.

" Yeah, my last wife and son are on their way" Lugard replied.

' he even has another wife ' Theresa thought scornfully.

" Wow your daughter is prettier in person " Lugard complimented.

" Thank you" Lily said.

" If she's the bride then I give my consent" Yvonne approved

" She isn't bad" Lionel said.

" What about you pretty?" Lugard asked Lily with a big smile.

' It's the right time girl,burst their bubbles ' Theresa thought but Lily's response came as a big blast to her.

" I give my consent " came her tiny voice.

" Li....ly" Henry stunted and she faced him with dilated eyes.
