After series of disturbances from Brenda, Chelsea then sends her off.

Slipping onto her couch she calls Sonia.

Of late Sonia has been having a lot of issues going on so they haven't hang out in a while.

Her new boss at work is always on her neck.

Always giving her loads of work, working overtime and unexpected work trips .

Talking to her, she can't imagine the stress she is going through so as she is busy they talk for a short while.

It's a Saturday afternoon, Mr Michael Bostos invites Greg out to play golf with some friends. Not really busy he joins him to play.

The moment they gets to the place, they meets Mr Bruce Jones with his daughter, Lena who also is supposedly accompanying her dad to play. The old men exchange pleasantries as they leave the young ones to play as they chat. Greg not wanting to spend a minute talking or even wasting his breath on Lena,alias 'miss I always get what I want '. He walks to a side lounge to relax but how can Lena lets a rare opportunity like this go, of course not. Lena makes an excuse and walks with him to the lounge. It's been over an hour since Lena is trying to have a conversation but Greg is already in his own world.

He nonchalantly puts on his glasses and starts playing with his phone. Realizing he is still not replying, Lena keeps quiet as she also thinks to accompany him silently, throwing glances at him once in a while.

The old men already being acquaintances has a lots to discuss while playing the golf and leaving the youngsters Michael pretends not to know Bruce is trying to matchmake them.

After the hangout both old men with their children board their cats and leave the vicinity.

Moving to her next plan Lena convinces her dad about the perfect plan inorder to get Greg. Listening to her...No!.... that's ridiculous how do you expect me to indulge you, no it's can't be. After series of tantrums and convincing Mr Bruce Jones agrees.

It's a Monday morning, the sky looks bright but turns dark in a blink of an eye. Looks like it's going to rain, guess today will be a bad day, Chelsea thought. As she is never a fun of rainy days.

Greg arrives in his office at few minutes to ten o'clock, recently he has been working outside the company, meeting clients and other stuffs. Settling in his seat, he presses the intercom. Elise,...gets me a cup of coffee . As he rubs his head for sometime, Robert knocks and enters the office.

Good morning boss,...

Mr Bruce Jones has been waiting for you at the visitor's lounge.

For how long, asks Greg as he smirks.

For about an hour sir Robert replies

Having a slight idea on the reason for the visit, he dismisses Robert asking him to inform Mr Jones he will be with him in a short while.

Knock..knock

Come in...Mr Jones walks in looking around the office, even though he has been here before but he just can't help but admire the nice taste of the young man before him. Every arrangement of the office is unique and classy not showing too much but enough to catch attention.

You may have a seat,..

Going straight to the point, Mr Jones says I have a deal for you.

Okayy ..... let's hear it.

Marry my daughter and I will give you the land as your wedding gift (the land they were bidding for).
