Recap:

Hello guys, did you miss me.

I entered the room with my bodyguard behind me. I approached my ex boyfriend who was now facing me.

" So, how are things going with your business. I heard that you are collaborating with one of the top business men in America is that right ?" He said taking a glass of wine.

"Yes , you are right.I guess  this time you got it from a right source. I turned to look at the girl beside him "Oh sorry, and who are you. I don't think we have ever met before".

"Don't worry about it. My name is Melissa and I am Ben's girlfriend." She replied offering her hand for me to shake it.

I looked at her hand and ingnored it heading to the wine table. I took my favorite wine poured a glass and took a sip. I could tell she was embarrassed. She held Ben's arm and gave it a squeeze. I turned to my bodyguard who was trying to hold back his laughter. Ben turned to me, removing his girlfriend's hand.

"Can I have a word with you in private" he asked.

"No, we can talk here there is nothing to hide".

" It about the company".

"What about it".

"I want my five percent of it".

"What five percent?

" One of your assistant came to me saying that you wanted twenty million from me. She told me in return you will give me five percent of the company".

I stared at him trying to hold back my laugh. I still can't believe that all these years he was still stupid. Why would I ask him for money I already have because of my father and apart from that I could easily still money from the government without them noticing. Sometimes I wonder what I saw in him to even date him. I really know how to pick them.

I sighed. I got up from my chair and walked up to him. I straightened his neck tie. " Ben, you have known me for a long time right. You know that I will never ask you for money even if there was a knife my neck. So listen closely, I never sent someone to take money from you and never will. Go and the girl who took your money because it's not me." I pat him cheek and headed towards my from.

"Zara, wait , he walked towards me and got on his knees. I need the money please my business is going bankrupt so for old time sake please help me."

" On one condition not that you have a choice ,sell me your to company. That's all am asking in my return to I will pay you forty million for it".

"Zara you and I both know that the company is weath so much more. "

" Have you forgotten that I have to pay off the company's debt. So don't test my patience. When you have come to your right senses give me a call ." I climbed the stairs and headed to my room. I dismissed by bodyguard , took a shower and went straight to bed. My father can deal with Ben himself. Tomorrow is going to be a shitty day. I can feel it.
