Vanessa walked up to the door that was being banged by her middle aged father . " Good evening dad " she said with a dry smile.
" Essa" He began " You've come of age and I don't expect you to ignore me now "
Vanessa rolled her eyes at him , she knew just were the journey of his talking would go so she just folded her arms against her chest and waited for the most unpleasant thing to enter her ears from his words . " You're having dinner with General Yangs son " He said and sat on her study chair .
Vanessa had just finished her routine on her laptop , as a fashion designer , model and secret CEO of Elsa Dumoreés fashion enterprise . " Oh , please dad. I'm done with all this pro Bono rubbish.....
She didn't finish her statement as a fierce slap landed on her soft cheeks. " Did you just slap me ? , You slapped me because I was telling how pissed off I am about attending fruitless blind dates and even a dinner date with my ex secretary ?!! , Dad please!! , I'm done .....I'm not going " Vanessa said angrily. She didn't finish stressing out her sentence because another slap hit her hard and she fell to the ground . " You slapped me again , just because of a man I haven't even met ?"
Tears gathered in her eyes threatening to fall.
" He is the man I want to hand my legacy over to , for goodness sake Vanessa...You won't take care of the company I suffered to build for years and now....marriage with a suitable man who would take good care of you and my company you dare reject?....dare me again .....like it or not , they are on their way here , you better don't mess this up "
With that her father left and slammed her room door hard enough to make the woman tremble .
Vanessa sat down on her bed and rubbed her cheeks slightly. " Fine , I'd go . Id go but I won't bulge for you nor your stupid company's sake . I'm not ready to marry and have a man rule over me like you did to mother " .
The old man had already walked out of the room , he commanded his servants to prepare an eye catching and sumptuous dinner for his guests.
Vanessa had been pestered several times by her dad to take over the company but she refused , when she was 21 dad started setting her up on blind dates so that she could get married to a man who would manage the company or better still , give him a son or an heir to all that he had worked for and built but she refused . That didn't stop the man as today is another day for her to meet another man and this man is whom her dad wished to hand over his company in peace to .
It's not like she's abandoning her dad's company , she just doesn't go with the flow of his won business. Her love for fashion was begotten from her mum and she'd always loved modeling. She'd tried to learn about how to manage her dad's business but it just didn't work .
She started by secretly saving part of her monthly allowance in her favorite bodyguards account . She trusts Taylor more than she trusts herself . Her mother had assigned Taylor to her when she was very little .
