Chapter 73
Sabrina's POV
Sabrina is the only daughter of a poor woman... She schooled abroad despite her mum being poor... Although, she gained the trust of the company staff for seven years and the company sponsored her education to study in the United States...
She's quiet and attentive but won't say a word until she's free with you...
On a visit to her motherland, where she saw this young man named Jeffrey... Though they didn't have a conversation Jeffrey made her smile before he left but she didn't show it out.
She exclaimed that he was cute but with her level of education, she couldn't settle for a man with less... She asked her friends for advice each time she kept thinking if a poor man asked her penmanship in marriage, Should she accept the ring? But her friends keep telling her that the sort of questions only you can answer... it lies within you and she feels discouraged every time.
Days passed... no feelings attached heeding the young man who came visiting...
Her mum made her believe that the young man had been arrested and she felt bad about it even when she knew perfectly she couldn't do anything.
She pretended it was none of her concern but her mum asked her to visit him and buy him something nice.
She became speechless and doesn't know where this is coming from... She tried to ask but the only reply she got was " I like that kid "
This idea of visiting was never my kind... I slept all night thinking of how to visit someone I haven't even talked to... Once.... but finally I went to the station and seeing him smile, despite him being in prison, gives me joy and my heart keeps bumping that day...
I felt shy but I was relaxed around him... I promised to call him but unfortunately, I couldn't due to some mental breakdown during that period and I lost myself.
I was so surprised that he broke out of prison because I can recall what happened, it was that he was going to spend the rest of his life in prison... I'm glad he came out and came looking for me.
Honestly, I didn't even know the time I jumped on him as he came to my office but I was glad...
He even brought me a rose and now I think I have fallen for him completely. I keep losing myself every day as I keep thinking of him... In-office, bathroom, kitchen, sitting room, playground, and almost everywhere... His face is painted in front of me.

"Jeffrey! Did you buy that for your girl?" Dean inquired me while he was staring at me and the same with Jennifer but Sabrina was still amazed as she put on the necklace in front of me...
"Babe! did it look nice on me" she thumped me after putting it on and for a juncture, I stopped eating.
"woo..wooo...wooo...you...look beautiful in it..." I lost myself as I kept staring at the beauty the jewelry brought to her.
"I love you..." She hugged me tightly right in front of Dean and Jennifer and with the look of how things are, Jennifer feels upset.
"Oops... Did she just say... she cherishes me?" I whisper to myself while embracing her tightly and also glancing at Jennifer.
"Jeffrey!" Dean yelled at me... making me tap on Sabrina to let go quickly.
"Sorry...But you can see that my woman here is happy about the present... why don't you just wait for her before yelling my name... now, you just ruined this passionate moment" I scolded him but Sabrina is so happy that she keeps telling me to stop... Shortly, Jennifer dropped her fork as she was eating.
"Anyway, I bought this for her... as I told you, I got everything covered today and I was anticipating you'll join me to surprise your woman but were just scolding me on the cellphone" I poured out the anger in me but glad I didn't yell at him... if not, this beautiful date will be ruined.
"It's nice... I love it" I was shocked to see that Dean complimented me and with the look in Jennifer's sight, she felt jealous and betrayed.
"Jennie... why aren't you saying anything... sorry if this may look awkward but you should learn to compromise in such situations now... I and Dean are friends so you should talk frequently" I turned to Jennifer while talking to her calmly but she provoked me while leaving the table.
"Don't...Give her some time... she's probably jealous because I bought this for my angel" I stopped Dean from following her and smiled while staring at my woman.
"Is there any more surprise for this, your lady?" Dean brought himself closer to me as he whispered to my ear and I slowly nodded my head in reply.
"Please don't do anything anymore... it'll ruin my relationship... Please" he continued to whisper and I was shocked and he took his seat.
Shortly Jennifer walks in...
"I think I'm sick... please I want to rest..." Jennifer abodes beside Dean as she complains while holding her stomach.
"Why are you running... because I ordered jewelry for my lady and you feel jealous and betrayed... Do you know what Dean is planning for you and besides... if you leave you might want to miss it... the party isn't over yet" I replied while taking the side of Dean and Jennifer became speechless.
"Please sit... baby... " Dean pleaded with her while she sat slowly.
"Dear... I know how you feel... although, I didn't expect this from him but trust me... you man also feel the same" Sabrina advised also as she took her to sit.
"Let's finish us and head to the second location... waiter..." I compliment and shortly called on the waiter.
"Please drop my stuff outside..." I authorized him and gave him my car key.
As we all finished eating, we stood up quietly and headed outside...
"Jeffrey! Is this your hand functioning again?" Dean asked with his eyes full of stunned as he looked at the black Lamborghini in front of them.
