The moment I met you (Chapter 219)

  By Nightengale Ben-Onyeukwu 

The ballroom was graciously decorated for the occasion. It was obvious that the decoration must have cost several million nairas.

                    

‘Felix is here!’Chisom whispered to Chioma.                                        

Chioma decided not to look so as not to meet his gaze. She was afraid he might come over once he caught a glimpse of her.                     

‘He’s very handsome,’Chisom giggled.   ‘Look at how stunning he looks in that outfit of his.’

Slowly Chioma glanced at the door and almost gasped when he entered, bundled up in a blue Versace scarf. He was a tall and elegant looking man. His tailored high-end coat fitted him perfectly well. Chioma watched as he walked gracefully towards his father. She felt that Felix had the same aura just like Michael. Just like Michael, Felix had this aura of an untouchable billionaire that everyone looked up to. Not just that, they both possessed a presence which even most celebrities or billionaires couldn’t compare to. They were both very handsome, but Chioma felt that Michael was more attractive with a slight difference. Could they be siblings? She thought. This was one thing she had never asked Michael, if he had another brother. She was certain he was Audrey’s elder brother. Perhaps, her imagination was just running wild without thinking.     

               

As Felix turned to Chioma, she looked down quickly. She thought that he was going to grab her hand and take her away. But instead, Felix smiled, and then turned to look at his sister Audrey who obviously stole the spotlight.                                                                                             

‘Today marks my daughter’s debut,’Nicholas said once all the invited guests had arrived. ‘I am especially glad to welcome the president of the federal Republic of Nigeria who is also the commander-in-chief of the Nigerian Armed Forces, in the person of Obinna Ojukwu and his family.’
