Chapter 9

"Oh, don't forget she is a medical doctor as well as being the finance minister daughter, so she is the perfect daughter-in-law I can ask for," Emma said

"Ok just don't get ahead of yourself cos you know the kind of person our son is, if you go too far he might decide to not talk to you again" her husband reminded her

Clara was on her way to meet Mrs Thompson, she is twenty-eight and a medical doctor who has just established her own private hospital with the help of her dad's influence and money. Being the last child and only daughter of her parents, she was spoilt and showered with everything she wants. she went to the same university Andrew went to, and their path crossed once when her boyfriend then was in the same class with Andrew, and he had invited her to his course team gathering and she saw Andrew for the first time and fell in love with him and decides no matter how long, she will make him hers. She broke up with her boyfriend that night and decides to chase Andrew but he didn't notice her. So she decided to give up and try again after she has finished her medicine course.

As soon as she finished, her mom was so proud of her daughter's achievements and told her to ask anything and she will do it. So she told her mother she wants to become Mrs Thompsons at all cost. Her mother had to become Emma Thompson's friend deceitfully and tried to convince her that they have to become in-laws for their relationship to blossom. It was a gradual process but here she is now about to fulfil her goal.

"We've arrived Miss," Her driver said

She looked out the window and saw a very beautiful modern architectural designed mansion, as she stepped out elegantly and strode towards the mansion.

"Good afternoon ma" she greeted Emma as soon as she saw her

"Oh dear, you look more beautiful in person than in the pictures," Emma said smiling. It is their first time meeting each other, they've only been talking over the phone and her mom sent her pictures.

"Thank you ma, you look so beautiful and so young yourself ma'am"

"Thank my darling," Emma said while blushing

"The main reason while I called you here is to discuss the issue of my son dating you. As you know my son is a very busy and difficult person, who does not have time to date anyone or even have the time to invest in anyone. So I will urge you if you can do the chasing part for this relationship to work. I'm sure it will work out but if it doesn't, at least we've tried our best" She continued. 'oh it will work out' Clara thought

"oh ma'am due to the nature of my job, I don't really have that much time as well, and I think it is the job of the guy to try his best to make the lady his, but since you've asked me, I'm willing to try my best. what do you need me to do?" Clara replied

"Your mother said you are planning to open a branch of your practice in some other location, can you go to Andrew's office and do some enquiry about lands and what kind of property can go on the land"

As they were planning, Emma suddenly had an idea 'he never says no to his grandfather, maybe we can tell father to call him on our behalf, so he will meet Clara personally if I don't do that he might delegate her appointment to his staff member and everything they've planned for today will go to waste.

Emma went upstairs where her father in law is and explained everything to him, even though he was reluctant about it he eventually agreed and decided to give his grandson a call to inform him that he was Addy to personally handle Clara's requests. But before his grandfather called him, Emma has already sent Clara on her way to Addy's office.

On her way to Andrew's office, she decided to call her friend

"Hey girl from now on you can start calling me Mrs Thompsons," She giggled

"Well Mrs Thompsons when is the wedding, I'm I invited" her friend teased

"Don't worry babes you are definitely invited, cos you will be my chief bridesmaid"

"I'm on my way to see my Husband now, I will talk to you later"

"Girl you've hit jackpot, no worries you have to gist me all about it later, talk to you later babes"

She giggled....she thought to herself, that she has to keep up with this good girl behaviour so he can completely fall for her.
