“Mom, what did you do that for?” Svetlana barked from where she stood. She was so disappointed and embarrassed as well. Her friends, Hope, and Prisca could not move an inch after the unexpected slap. They just stood at a spot, sobbing and nursing their faces. They were very rude and thought everyone would take shit from them. Unfortunately, Gina was not one to cower and sob because some girls on the same age as her daughter said some horrible things to her.She was a very strong-willed woman and was doing her best to give her two daughters the best life she could afford. Unfortunately, Svetlana had sworn to be foolish, unlike her younger sister, who's a smart teenager. Gina, with bloodshot eyes, turned to face Svetlana, glaring daggers at her daughter. “You are a foolish young lady who's even ashamed of her mother. You're ashamed of who you are. And look at the kind of friends you're keeping.”Gina sucked her teeth while shaking her head in disgust. “I feel sorry for you. And if

Donald led the way as they began to walk out of the hall, his hands heavy with the two bags of food.Adolphus reached out and helped him carry a bag while they started towards the hostel.Along the way, they bumped into Sheila and Brianne.Donald has a crush on Sheila while Glover has a crush on Brianne. Although they were very aware of their feelings for the girls, they haven't gotten the boldness to confess their feelings.Donald and Glover were not as bold as Adolphus who didn't take time in confessing his feelings for Svetlana. Unfortunately, a relationship did not work out between them.Adolphus was the first person to see the girls and quickly called out to his friends.“Guys, look over there. It's Sheila and Brianne, the girls you're crushing on. I don't know why you guys are too afraid to confess your feelings.”"Look, if you're not bold enough, they'll assume that you're not interested and will go ahead to date other boys.” Adolphus's words came off as teasing but it was seri

Ursula stopped talking and took some water from her bottle. With that cold look still on her face, she continued to make her points clear.“And you see that villa you're occupying, I need you to vacate the place immediately." “It doesn't belong to you." “My father gave it to me so it belongs to me and my mother now. I'm sorry Mrs. McAllen, I'll have to be on my way now if this is all you have to say to me." Adolphus wanted to stand up. "We're not finished here yet, young man.” Ursula barked, banging on the table and drawing the attention of some other customers.“Don't you dare walk out on me when I'm still speaking to you." She added, her face dark with so much rage.Adolphus had to sit back, out of respect for his father. She was his father's wife and he wouldn't want to disrespect her.Disrespecting his father's wife also meant that he was disrespecting his father.Nicolas McAllen may not be very good with his wife at that moment. However, he might not be able to tolerate it wh

A wicked smile escaped Adolphus's lips after listening to Bradley's words.He was up to something mischievous this time and his victim would never see it coming.Adolphus was out to teach them all a big lesson and he'd stop at nothing until all his aims were achieved.Bradley, noticing the sneer on Adolphus's face, could not help but inquire. “Young Master, what is that look on your face? Is there something else you want to do?" Bradley had a feeling that Adolphus was up to no good. The look on his face said it all.A chuckle escaped Adolphus's lips and he turned to the man, nodding a few times, his lips curled to a side.“Yeah, I want to teach someone a lesson." Adolphus went ahead and gave the man instructions on what to do, just like when he had to meet with Svetlana's mother.***At the McAllens mansion, Ursula sat restless at one of the sofas in the sitting room. She had been there for over an hour, gutting down a bottle of whiskey. Oftentimes, she'd jump to her feet and begin

The next day after their classes, Adolphus hurried over to the computer science department and to Abigail's class.He had her umbrella in his hands even though he'd been asked to keep it.Just like his department, Abigail's class was done for the day and students were leaving the lecture hall.Because he was dressed in a simple brown t-shirt and jeans trousers inferior in quality, no student casted a second glance at him.They just walked past him like he was invisible.Adolphus, not bothered about the students' attitude, just stood outside the hall, waiting for Abigail to come out. However, someone else came out of the hall. It was Pius, and behind him was his best friend, Drake.Adolphus casted a confused look at him but didn't say anything. In fact, he acted like Pius was totally invisible.He wasn't there for Pius and didn't want to engage him.Abigail was the one he came for.But then, Pius seemed to be in a mood to talk to him. With his friend, tagging along, Pius walked up to
