They left the hospital in the Rover with Adah driving back to Essex County. Munah knows that they will be spending the whole day and the next one in Essex County before traveling back to the land that flows with milk and honey. Be turned to look at Adah whose face looks calm and joyful. She has been quite worried but now that she has heard from Mrs. Rowlings and an assignment given to her, She now knows that the woman has given her the keys to their little family. Now from her expression, he knows that she looks happy. Adah drove straight to the Metrical. The towering seven-story building was quite huge and intimidating with lots of space. She parked the car and they came out as Munah for the first time gazed at one of the foreign acquisitions of the empire. They went in as the securities announced her presence through the microphones. She has to make a brief stop at the lobby to acknowledge the cheers of former colleagues and some of them shook her hands. She left The Metrical as a senior executive and is now coming back as an owner and chief of the empire. She knows that they are proud of her for their acceptance and great joy says it all. She later excused them and went to see Mr. Kindle who was so grateful to see her again. They discussed and even a meeting was called which she presided over. The meeting lasted for just an hour with the head of graphics and advertisements calling for a change of strategy in financing the department. Adah asked her to come up with the idea and submit it to the Directors for scrutiny and if accepted, the Bureau of Statistics will take it from there. Munah was in that meeting and could not help but admire her and the sincere ways she tries to listen and solve their challenges. She told them the news of the latest addition to the empire, informing them that The Metrical will be listed as one of the auditors of the company. This announcement brought great cheers and joy, She also met the Directors in a closed-door meeting after which she announced her departure. Mr. Kindle and a few others saw her and Munah off to the car and as she drove out, Munah can only help but wonder because around Adah there is a power that she carries.
From the Metrical She drove towards Sandford, Sandford is a big town that inhabits more than a hundred thousand people apart from people that come in on daily basis for reasons of work, education, and businesses. A Look at the small town will see it as overpopulated because of the great influx of people. However, during the winter breaks, it is always a ghost town. Adah drove into a huge restaurant and parked the car. She came out so did Munah and they walked to the entrance. The restaurant was quite a masterpiece as it is built with all glass and beautifully decorated. The whole place was busy and Adah taking Munah by the hand went through the large door which was only for staff. They entered a corridor and walked the length of it until they came to a door which she opened without knocking. They entered and Munah could see Kelly standing up to welcome her again. She offered them seats while Adah looked around the office and admired how Kelly had turned the place into one of the busiest places in Sandford. The office is quite large, well decorated, and laid out. Kelly knowingly excused Adah as she left the office and closed the door behind her.
"Let me introduce Delectables to you," Adah said with a smile as she walked up to him.
"Thank you but why eat in this office when we can have a good meal out there?" Munah said a little confused. She laughed out loud at his statement as she came very close to him while he encircled her waist and brought her closer.
"This place is mine. I bought this place the first year that I was accepted into the metrical. This place is a secret only Lily and Kelly know about this place. I decided to get it so that I can try out my skills in cooking, lies, pastries, and cakes. I started this place myself doing all the jobs but that was in the evenings. When I had more customers than I can satisfy and the place is growing, I invited Kelly and we both worked like oxen. Kelly is a great friend and partner. Funny enough, the people got attracted to my style of pies, pastries, cakes, and food. I sold my ideas to Kelly and today this is it." Adah said looking at his surprised face.
"This is quite interesting," he remarked with lots of admiration for her.
"I refused to tell my parents because they will highly disapprove of it. Now I am telling you and after our wedding, you will be part of the owner of this place. Kelly just made me approve of getting another property in Norchestery a city after this and we intend to expand. You cannot leave me alone with this needing much attention." Adah said softly looking at him pleadingly.
" Remember, I vowed that I will always be there for you. This is quite huge if you ask me." Munah said in wonder. She hugged him more out of joy at his response. She will sign the cheque for the outright purchase of the space they have acquired in Norchestery and the facelift that will be carried out on the property. According to Kelly, it will be bigger than Sandford. Adah felt at home in the office and Munah allowed her to be. With this he has seen, Adah can do away with her family's wealth. He reasoned within him that he will convince her to begin a branch back at home where local delicacies can be added to the fray. Looking at her, he fell more for her and the personality she represents. Little did Adah know that she has endeared herself to him, the one she has fallen for and the one that is the only epitome of her joy and laughter. Munah could see that it is a different Adah that he is seeing but one thing she never leaves behind is her exotic and beautiful ambiance, Adah is loveable but can be misunderstood, she may look difficult but behind that veil, she is as soft as butter. Adah knows that Munah is the type that can do anything for her as far as it is within his reach. There are no regrets about her falling in love with him because he is God's answer to her prayers. God just sent him to her and thank goodness that she followed her heart! She looked back at their journey since they met and could tell that there is a lot she has learned, he has covered every aspect of her weaknesses and had given her strength and joy. He has shown her the real definition of what it meant to be loved and taken as a woman so she cannot ask again for more.
Kelly entered the office and announced that it is time to leave for Norchestery, Adah looked at her and nodded at Munah for approval which he obliged to. They all left in the Rover while Kelly drove the car. They got to the place which was at the very center of the town. They entered and inspected the place and planned how it will be set up. Munah contributed his ideas and suggestions advising that henceforth, Delectables should have unique structures that they should be known with. He advised that it should take the design and pattern of the one in Sandford. Kelly bought the idea while Adah smiled knowingly for she has never thought of that. They finished and departed. As they drove Adah started a conversation.
"Please I will want Mrs. Rowlings to work for Delectables, I don't know if it will be possible after she is finally certified fit." Adah started not looming at Munah.
"It is quite possible but we must begin the process of first writing to the authorities and processing her documents. I pray she accepts" Kelly said thoughtfully.
"I think she will. I will want her to help you, Kelly, especially with Norchestery. She may simply work on supervisory roles but please talk to her and if she accepts start the whole process." Adah said as she relaxed on the seat of the car. Munah said nothing but allowed Adah to have her way. He knows it will be safer for her, especially for her health.
"Please Kelly endeavor to give her a nice office. I have instructed the doctor to be with her all through the rehabilitation process." Adah said knowing that Kelly is very reliable on this type of special errand. Kelly parked the car at Adah's flat in Essex County and asked Adah to call if there is any other thing she will need. She waved them goodbye as they entered the apartment and made her way towards the office quite fulfilled.
