Mom and Dad can't be serious at all. And why did he have to say he'd put in a great word for me?? Yes Jermaine is drop dead gorgeous but I don't want this especially not right now

All I want to do is finish school, I don't want the whole pressure of dating a Don and having kids and all of that right now, our parents don't know that we know that they're apart of a Don but who wouldn't notice ?? We just don't know their level

For every new Don to come, they're would always be an assembly among all the Don leaders of each part owned and that included James, his wife and their children

They were amongst the earliest to wait for Jermaine to start the assembly so that they could speak about the urging matter that was at hand

James looked at how Alicia carried her self well and beautiful then he addressed her by saying :

"Yuh see how you likkle and nice, him ago love yuh"

"Stop full up di girl head ah dem tings here" the mother said resentfully, " and by the way, when wi guh home wi ago have a family meeting"

"Mommy wi ago meet Jermaine right ??? Wi ago get him fi date Alicia right?" Gabby asked curiously

"Really gabby" Alicia said defeated

"We fi meet him tn yes and yuh father fi have a talk with him about that exact same thing" she said calmly

"But mommy, mi nuh waa dis mi waa focus pan school and dem ting deh, Unnu couldn't wait fimmi leff fi do all a dis... chro"

While they all stood and talked at the assembly without noticing that Jermaine was approaching.... "Good evening" he said gently along with his bodyguards behind him

Jermaine is dressed in a Black Jacket suit, he looks neat as always.....

"Good evening Mr. Bartley, can I have a word?"
Their dad said to Jermaine

They stepped aside leaving Alicia worried

JAMES POV:

I want my Daughter Alicia to be with him, not just for the money but also because I don't want her to get in the mix with other men, men that couldn't physically help her

James is the perfect person that can take care of her and that's what I believe, I want him to see all sides of my daughter and accept her for who she is

" how can I help you James"

" I have no correct way in saying this so please just excuse my patois.... I want you to date my daughter, she ah di most smartest, cutest and boldest daughter that I have and she's the sweetest, she nuh know bout di business dem yet but we ago draw a family meeting tn and explain everything to her, we are also in need of this collaboration for our personal business and this relationship that us to come would affect us both in positive ways" I began to say
As he stared at her across the room admiring her

"The only problem is she won't let go off her pride, she wants to finish school, she wants everything that her mind tells her to get... but she won't budge when it comes to a relationship...." I was about to continue to speak when he interrupted me :

"I'll take in the challenge, let me get her number and everything about her and you better tell her about all of this tonight, she ago live wid mi, she can still go school if she want yuh zimmi"

I responded with a nod and excused myself from his presence. I walked over to my family to give them the good news with a smile on my face

"Guess what" I said and all their faces started to glimmer except Alicia's

"Jermaine seh him ago dweet lica and mi cyaa call it off, him want all ah yuh information and you ago start live wid him by next week" as I continued to speak she started tearing up and then she bolted off

"ALICIA!!" I called and she still continued to walk away
