The moment I met you (Chapter 195)

   By Nightengale Ben-Onyeukwu


‘So Prince can go, right?’Celine asked to make sure, even though she found her question to be silly.

                  

‘Of course. He’s among the princes of Abuja. Besides, his father is the president of Nigeria.’                                                                                

‘But I want you there as well.’                                                               

‘No, I’m not a big fan of boring events like seeing a movie in a cinema. I have access to any movie I want to see…’he paused and looked at her with a smirk. ‘You can’t rip me off.’                                                           

‘You’re too boring.’                                                                                   

‘You’re welcome.’

Celine sighed when she wasn’t able to convince Felix to go with them. She had wanted to rip him off a little should he agree to go. Putting the lollipop into her mouth, she turned to leave.                             

Audrey was in the living room playing games as she waited for Celine. Seeing that Celine came back without Felix, she knew that Felix had refused to go. She dropped her phone, and looked up at Celine.

                    
‘He refused to go, right?’                                                                        

‘He asked me to bring Prince Instead.’Celine frowned.                     

Audrey smiled. ‘We don’t have to go with any of them. Just the two of us will be okay…’she stood up, dressed in a Dior burgundy coat dress with matching pumps and a red, floral hat. ‘Let’s go.’                              

‘No. I don’t want to go anymore.’Celine cried, pretending to be appalled.                                                                                                           ‘Why?’                                                                                                       

‘Because…’Celine paused, breaking into a sweet smile.                           

Audrey smiled as well. Picking up her phone from the couch, they both walked out.                                                                                                        

Just as they were about heading for the garage to select a car, Nicholas and Isabelle came home from the banquet they had attended at Paradise Hotel.
