Chapter 17

Joseph was not happy to know that she was still at the house, he didn't want anything to spoil his plans, he had planned it all so we'll that he didn't want anything to spoil it for him, but he still tried to sound as concerned as possible, she sounded broken and he didn't want to add to her sorrows, at least not yet.

"How are you Anna?

"I am fine thank you"

"Well I was thinking about you and Angel so I thought I should call to know what is happening, have you moved already?

"No we haven't!

"But why?

She paused before answering, she was about to stop herself from asking but it came out before she could stop it.

"I need your help Joseph, I don't have a place to stay, I don't have anywhere to go to, can you please help me out with some money to rent an apartment?

This was what Joseph needed, he needed to be the one to help her, he wanted to be there for her so that taking advantage of her would be easy, but he must not show his excitement so soon so he asked.

"But what about your parents, why not go to them?

She felt embarrassed to tell him that her parents would gladly throw her out, she was too ashamed to admit that her mother in particular would not welcome her, would not care if she was going through hell, she couldn't just go to her parents, she needed to try and stay in her own, atleast for the time being.

"I am sorry if you cannot help me"

She said and was about to end the call but Joseph was smart to sense he shouldn't stress much on her parents issue.

"Offcourse I will help you, I will do almost anything for you, you are like a sister to me, and I want the best for you.

Hearing what he said, Anna was happy, she knew he would help her, she was so happy to  have met someone like him.

"I will help you but I don't want you stressing with hotels or rents, I will take you to my family green house in the east, you can stay there for as long as you want, that place is better for you, no one would know you are there, and no one would disturb you and Angel, I will place you on salary, so you won't have to depend on anyone, you can also get a job there till you stand on your feet. If that is okay by you?

Anna was swelling with happiness, she was overwhelmed with everything, she felt her eyes tear up again even though she had said she didn't want to cry.

"Why are you doing all these?

Why are you so nice to me?

Joseph smiled, she was already where he wants her to be, she was overwhelmed with what he was offering, soon she would be offering herself to him, he needed to be smart and play cool.

"Let's just say, I hate men who cheat and I don't like seeing women suffer. I believe women should be pampered, they should be cared for, they should be cherished, if the man is not ready to offer the woman all these, he should never commit to her.

His words brought hot tears to her eyes, he was the dream of every woman, he understood women.

"Pack your things and meet me at the park in 30minutes I would be waiting for you, I will personally take you to the green house.
