"Carol?! What are you doing here?" I asked with a shaky voice.
(This is Carol from the Story *HAMAN'S SCANDALS* Season Two. The Fiancée to Eric who slept with Ham towards the end of Season Two.)
"Came to see an old friend, is that a crime?" She replied smiling.
She was still holding her baby girl and she stood right in front of my desk as she looked at Duke keenly.
"Son, go play with your toys in your play room, I have a client." I said to Duke since I needed some privacy with Carol.
"Okay Daddy, and don't forget to get me the car you promised." He replied as he got off my laps.
"After work I will take you pick the car you want my boy." I said smiling as I watched him walk into the next room beside my office where all his play tools were.
He loved video games and so I had gotten him some but I always limited him because of the eye straining and the body straining. I would let him play for just half an hour a day or less then engage him in a more healthy activity.
Carol took a seat opposite my desk then she took a deep breath and she asked;
"Where is the mother?"
"His biological mother is dead and his foster mother is somewhere I don't know where." I replied calmly.
"What do you mean you don't know where? You don't know where your woman is?" She asked.
"My woman? No! She was my woman way back even before I adopted Mekhi but became his mother just by name; her name appeared on the birth certificate, that's all." I replied.
I did not want to tell her directly that she was the foster mother because I did not know what her reactions would be; I just twisted my twists and it was now my turn to ask the questions.
"I see finally Eric decided to settle, what's your daughter's name?" I asked.
"He just did it for the baby, he never even sees me like his woman. But that is better than the way he was before since now he does spend some quality family time with us; her name Lisa Trisha." She replied faking a smile.
"Ha ha! Let me just go with Lisa, I don't wanna bite my tongue trying to say her name. She looks like her mother, actually I see no quality of Eric in her." I said jokingly.
Carol just smiled then she said;
"Anyways, I heard about your business from a friend and I decided to come and see for myself; I am looking for a business partner in a future project."
"Since when did you want to partner with anybody?" I asked sarcastically.
"Ham, you are not anybody; I do trust you. I made a very big mistake trusting Eric with my businesses, he collapsed almost half of them." She replied.
"I have another branch in a different town, that is the branch which we can negotiate about because already I signed a contract with someone else using this branch." I said.
"Do you mind if I assess the branch first before signing any contract?" She asked.
"I don't mind but that will not be today; I have some work to attend to." I replied.
