Chapter 20 - Chapter Twenty

"I brought up Angelo", Raymond said and Henry scoffed.

"I don't give a fuck about you Mr. Ray", Henry said with no emotions. "I need some money Vi. Just about six million dollars", he said to Vivian.

Vivian laughed when she heard it.

"What is it for?", Vivian asked calmly, taking the two men by surprise. Raymond had thought she would ignore his question while Henry had thought that she would brush him off and go without hearing him out.

He was happy and replied, "Sarah need to undergo a surgery and she's pregnant-"

"So?", Vivian asked nonchalantly and Henry was surprised by her attitude.

"She can die", Henry said.

"Let me guess. Sarah is your new bitch and she's having your baby. You shouldn't come to me Mr. Hart. You have nothing to do with me. This is what I have", She stuffed a thousand dollars in his hand.

He was shocked but she continued, "Don't get me wrong. That's my contribution for the purchase of the coffin. Tell him about the burial ceremony when you're free", she said and walked away furiously.

"Fuck!!" Henry stomped his feet on the ground and stared hatefully at her. "Fuck you Vi!! Fuck you!!!", he yelled on top of his voice.

"Whatcha lookin' at? Huh?? What?!", he yelled at the employees that stared at him as they walked by.

He ran his hand over his hair and inserted the money in his trousers pocket.

"Do not cheat", the male teacher said as he distributed the exam papers to the students. They were having their second paper for the day. For Tessa, it was English. For Kim, it was chemistry. For Zavier, it was Physics. For Luke, it was English. The students chose the paper they wanted to write.

They did vote to pick the right paper to write. "Submit all phones to me", the teacher took a green box and went around the class to take the gadgets of the students. They groaned as they put their phones into the box.

"Mr. Sam! You know I can't do without music. I'm gonna die!!", Delilah said. She was a cheerful girl in Tessa's class.

"But you're not dead yet", Mr. Sam replied and the class bursted into laughter.

"Anastasia?", Mr. Sam called but she was sending a message to someone quickly.

"Just a minute handsome", she said and the students chuckled. She continued typing and that made him seize her phone.

"Save the same energy for the paper. I want to see you writing with that speed", he joked.

He collected the phones from the students and turned back to drop the box so he could watch them write the examination.

!Ding!

!Ding! !Ding!

He swiftly turned back as soon as he heard the notification from a phone.

"Who was that?", he asked and a male student raised his hand.

"You can't seize this phone sir. I'm talking to Elon Musk now", he said and the teacher scoffed.

"You are talking to the doubting Thomas now so I don't care", he collected the phone and turned to go when he heard another notification.

"You again!!", he exclaimed and took the ipad from him.

"Sir! You can't do this to me. Ice spice was asking me for the new color for her hair", he shouted helplessly and the class laughed.

"Tell her to use ginger. Rubbish", he hissed and finally turned to drop the box.

He pointed to the wall clock and said, "Y'all are writing the English exam so you have an hour. Nothing more than that"

The students made some noise but he ignored them. "Your time starts now ", he pressed the stop clock and they began writing.

"Oh come on! Stop this and distribute the papers already", Cole complained when the teacher was wasting time by talking about her personal experience in the university.

"Who said that?", she looked around but no one answered her.

"That's what I am talking about. Listen to your teachers so you will graduate in peace and not in pieces. Anyways, come for your paper", the teacher said and started sharing the exam questions.

"Oh shit!! What the hell is with this topic? Yo! Zavier, help a brother out", Fred said with a smile.

"Actually, the quantum stuff is kinda simple-", Simon said but was interrupted by Damon.

"To you ", he rolled his eyes.

"Actually, I didn't read for this shit", Matthew said.

"You're gonna fail. Won't you graduate from the university?", Zavier asked and he laughed.

"What do you mean? Son of man gonna graduate with flying colors. I'm gonna bang her for the last time to pass the fucking subject. I'm really gonna bang her hard so I'm gonna have a high mark", he winked and they slapped his head.

"Bad boy ", Simon said and raised his hand when they wanted to attack him.

"Your time starts now ", the teacher yelled and hit the table thrice for orderliness and decorum.

"Did you watch the next episode of 'Fall for me'?", a fellow co-worker asked Tessa. Tessa raised her head and answered, "Of course. I can't miss any episode. You know how cute my José is. I can't miss any episodes, Lilac.. You should know"

"More handsome than me?", Zavier asked and Tessa smiled cutely. She didn't know he would be coming.

"Hey handsome", she smiled widely at him and he blushed.

"Did he just-"

"Yes, he did. He can't help it. He has a pretty girlfriend ", Tessa boasted with joy.

"One mac and cheese please", a customer ordered, raising her hand.

"Coming!", Tessa replied and began carrying out her order.

"Just a minute babe. I gotta do this", Tessa coaxed Zavier and placed some food on the plate for the customer.

"Have a seat Zavier", Lilac offered and pointed to an empty seat near Tessa's angle. He sat down and began staring at his girlfriend.

She's damn beautiful and he always boasts of her to his friends. They also know that he doesn't exaggerate when he's talking about her.

He waited till she finished and walked home with her.

"Let me guess. You wanted us to walk together", Tessa spoke and he smiled.

"Yes. You said that the luxury was too much and I should kind of make it just a little. That's also why you won't allow me to pay your uncle's debt", Zavier said.

"Yes", she confirmed. "As my mum would always say", she began and paused with teary eyes.

Zavier saw this and felt bad. "I'm sorry love. I didn't mean to", he wiped her tears.

"It's okay. I'm just a crybaby. I shouldn't be behaving like Ryan", Tessa laughed.

"As my mum would say, a girl should be independent. I shouldn't rely on my millionaire boyfriend", she said.

"Billionaire boyfriend", he corrected and she laughed.

"I know", she said.

"You don't. How was your English Test?", Zavier asked and held her hand as he helped her with her bag.

"I did well. Thanks to Damon", she smiled and he got jealous.

"How was yours?", She asked but got no reply. She looked at him and found out that he's sulking.

"Good. I'll get an A or maybe A+", he said confidently and she ruffled his head.

"When next will you twerk for me?", he said and she paused in her steps.

"You haven't twerked on my dick for some time now. You know, nowadays, I feel horny with you around. Whenever I think of you, my dick stands to honor your presence-", Zavier said and her hand flew to his mouth.

"Shut up!! You're making me embarrassed. Oh Lord!! Who turned you into this? Bad boy ", she pushed him away and he laughed.

"I was always like this. I'm more than this. You'll love me more when I tell you some dirty lines", Zavier stated and she rolled her eyes.

"Tell me a random dirty line", she dared him and he smiled.

"Before that, is your period bothering you?", he asked and she nodded.

"If you let me, I can stop them for nine months", he smirked and she stopped walking when she understood what he said.

"Fuck!! What did you just say?!", she asked and he wanted to repeat it when she pecked him on the lips.

"I love your ass", he said and grabbed it. She gasped but he kept her there.

"Let's go home", he said and entered a bus with her.

Cassie is ready to go back to the states for more work. This time, she will be working with a set of Korean guys for her new project. She was already drooling when she saw their pictures on her manager's phone. She had wished Liam and Gem goodbye amidst teary eyes.

"Screw you Raymond and William", she muttered under her breath and entered the vehicle to dreamland.

The cool breeze was the thing she loved about the U.S. She wore her sunglasses and signed on some books, clothes and hands. Her fans were literally screaming her name and she did care. Yes babes! Scream her name till she goes deaf!

"To the five star hotel", she told the driver and sat at the passenger's seat with her manager.

"Please, take us to CJ hotels", the manager said with a small smile to the driver. The driver started the car and drove to the five star hotel located in the heart of the country.

Cassie smiled as she explored the country with her eyes. She spoke to herself and smiled, "I can only wait to meet you".

Her manager heard her but didn't say anything. To him, he has seen a lot of displays like this but it doesn't end well because it's called lust. She'll end up getting obsessed with them and sleeping with them but it's all fun.

Yes, she should have fun but she gets heartbreaks in her relationship so she had stopped seeing any guy for sometime. It seems like she had ignited her feelings once again after he showed her the picture of a Korean actor named Lee Jun ho A.K.A Trevor.

Her hair was dripping wet with the water of the pool. Her swimming suit was also wet and her nipples could be seen and her back was exposed. Zavier approached the swimming pool with a frown.

"I told you to come and eat before doing this", he said and waited at the edge of the pool. Tessa had an evil grin and swam towards him.

"Help me up", She stretched out her hand for him to take. He also stretched forth his hand for her to grab but the unexpected happened. She took his hand and pulled him into the pool.

The water made a loud splash as he fell into the pool. He wiped the water off her face and threw an angry look at her. He laughed as soon as he saw her expression. She was looking guilty and pouted her lips and looked at the water. It was as if she was staring into nothingness.

He swam to her and kept her by the wall of the pool. Right now, she was trapped between him and the wall. He leaned closer and captured her lips with his. He continued and held her waist while deepening the kiss. He could see that she enjoyed it.

"Listen to me next time", he whispered and began swimming with her.

"What style is that?", she asked and he scoffed.

"Don't tell me you don't know how to do this", he raised his brow and she nodded.

"If I do teach you this, you'll stay with me for one more hour ", he said and she nodded quickly.

"That's simple", he muttered and swam to her.

"You put your legs this way", he directed her legs as she laughed. He was confused and curious about her laugh. Why was she laughing?

"That tickles, Zavier", she said and he finally found his answer.

But, he continued and that resulted in the splashing of water in his face.

"Let's swim. If you're the first person to get there, I'll give you a reward. Anything you want", she said with a cute smile exposing her not-so-deep dimples.

"Anything?", Zavier asked and she nodded.

"What if I want you to twerk for me?", he asked and she thought for a while.

"I'll do it. If that's what you want", she replied and he smiled.

"That's what I want", he replied and they swam to the beginning of the pool to start their competition.

"Let me say it '', Tessa said quickly when they were deciding on how to say the countdown.

"Z! A! A! Go!!", she shouted and they began swimming to the end. At one point, Tessa's arms began to hurt so she slowed down a bit. She could see Zavier ahead of her. He did win. She was not happy but it was a fair game for her.

"You did cheat", she complained as they came out of the pool. Tessa sneezed and Zavier immediately wrapped her with a towel.

"You can't catch a cold. You still have to twerk for me", Zavier said shamelessly and she laughed.

"You won because I haven't been swimming for a long time. It was a fair competition though"

Zavier helped her dry her hair with the hair dryer and cooked for both of them. Tessa continued sneezing and that got Zavier worried.

"I don't like it when you're sick", he said while holding her hand.

"The doctor is on his way. What do you want to watch? Do you want your orange juice?", he asked her and she felt loved.

She asked him to lie beside her on the bed and he did. She then buried herself in his warm embrace while feeling warmth and love. She slept off after inhaling his warm scent. She does love everything about him.

Zavier watched her closely for some time and left to bring in the doctor.

The doctor checked her temperature and all that he was supposed to check.

"All she has to get is good rest. She's also tired from some tasks. She's working too much so she should stop that unless she will collapse", the doctor said and gave him a list of medicines to buy for her.

"I didn't know you've left Lina. Thank goodness you didn't wear pants as your glasses anymore. She's pretty", He said with a smile that didn't go well with Zavier.

"Get out!", he kicked his friend out and he laughed.

"Chill man! I want to ask for her number. I just told you that she was pretty. No long cap, man", his friend said and opened the refrigerator.

He took out an alcoholic wine and a tumbler. He sat by the table and poured himself a drink. He drank it in a go and dropped the cup on the table aggressively.

"Let me guess. She came to visit", Zavier said and he nodded. Zavier also poured himself a drink for unity.

"So, what will you be doing when you leave the school?", he asked.

"I don't know George", Zavier replied and drank another shot of the alcohol.

"What about the girl?", George asked with an intense gaze.

"Man, I ain't gonna lie. I'm gonna keep her. I love her", Zavier said with emotion.

"What if she ends up like Lina and the other girls?", George asked.

"She won't. She can't. I know Tess", Zavier said and George didn't say anything after that.

"That's good. For how long have you guys been dating?", he asked and Zavier scoffed and poured himself another shot.

"Couple of months now", he answered.

"How could you do this? We were both single when you broke up with Lina. We were both fucking bitches! Attending clubs and fucking around but you've changed-"

"For good", Zavier interrupted and George was surprised.

"When last did you fuck her?", he asked straightforwardly.

"She's a virgin", Zavier answered and George was shocked once again. "That means you", he pointed to him and Zavier helped him to complete his sentence.

"I haven't fucked for some months now", He completed and continued, "My dick is still intact and she's gonna feel the impact when we do it".

"When will that be? After the wedding?"

"Most probably", he replied and George couldn't take it any longer. He called Simon and Damon to confirm what Zavier had been telling him.

"You must really love her then. Does she know that you do shit?", George asked and he shook his head.

"Girls don't like it when things are kept away from them. I'm talking from experience. Cassie and I are always the unlucky ones in relationships", George said sadly and gulped down some alcohol.

"I wish you both a long and healthy relationship. And I do hope to come to your wedding ", George said laughing.
