Chapter 13

The Daran's home was a delightful sight, large widths and lengths and a beautiful front yard. It was made of mostly glass and a few brick walls, and undeniably, it was truly suitable for their eminence.

When I entered, I was welcomed by a maid, who led me straight into the living room where I was sure I would find my father and Rashid already seated.

I was right but what I didn't expect was Shade to be present too. She sat beside him caked in makeup, dressed in a pretty but too exposing package. What she didn't know was that, most times people preferred unwrapping the package but that was her, she tried too hard when she knew she didn't fit in.

"Good Evening father... Rashid," I said greeting them both before I took my sitting. We were the only ones here and I wondered about Tijani, I had thought he would be involved in this as well.

"Ah Jacob What took you so long?" My father asked as they both shifted their gazes to me for an explanation.
