chapter 12 - You are getting married?

When they got out of the office left, all the employees paused working and bowed a little on seeing Nicklaus until he left their presence."who does he even think he is? A God or what? Wow and I am going to be his wife? Christ" Serina thought. Neither Serina nor Nicklaus noticed they were holding hands until they got to the car. They immediately let go of each other.

"Get in"

Nicklaus said in a commanding tone. Serina reluctantly entered the car. Nicklaus ordered the driver to drive them to the mansion. They arrived at a huge nicely decorated mansion. Serina's jaw jropped as she gagged her mouth with her hands to avoid screaming. Nicklaus watched the amazed figure. This is what women want. Luxury, money, riches and once it's gone, you become useless and worthless to them. They are never content with what they have they always yern and ask for more Nicklaus thought ans then said out loud

"Get back in the car"

Serina turned to him in disappointment and sat in the car.

"Take us to her house"

Nicklaus said to the driver in a teasing tone which sent shivers to her spine as she remembered she had not informed her dad about the marriage and what does he want in her house? She quickly took out the phone and called her dad. When it rung twice, he picked up

"Hello daddy?"

"Hey Serina, is everything alright?"

" Yes how is Ira?"

"She is very fine . They surgery went well but she is still unconscious in the ICU the doctor said she will regain consciousness after few days "

"That's good news. But...erm daddy...I have something to tell you "

" Daddy...erm...I...I am getting married..."

"You are joking at this hour of the day?"

" ... tomorrow " Serina continued and bit her lower lip

"What?! If this is a joke stop it my dear cause it isn't funny "

" Daddy I am coming home I will explain everything to you "

"Serina?"

Serina ended the call and turned to look at Nicklaus who was listening to her conversation with her dad but pretending to be on his phone. After some time they arrived at Serina's house. She looked at Nicklaus and expected him to act disgusted but he did not. Serina knocked on the door and her father shouted "Come in!". She tried opening the door but Nicklaus stopped her , opened the door and made way for Serina to enter he then closed the door behind him. Serina called out her dad. He came out was about to hug his daughter when he suddenly stopped on seeing a good looking man in his early thirties standing behind Serina. He looked rich his perfumed clouded their small house and it smelled good he thought. Who is this man and why is he here? He then came back to his senses and remembered they were still standing and offered them a seat .

" Rina I can see there is someone with you . Would you mind telling me who he is?"

" Erm daddy...he is the person I am getting married to ... tomorrow"

"What? you mean you were not joking?"
