47. Meeting my in-laws
Dimitri made his way to Lucas’ office. He really needed answers from his friend as to why he didn’t tell him about Marina having a twin sister. He had watched him make a fool of himself.
He was Just thankful that his Goddess wasn’t there to watch him otherwise it would be hard for him to win her heart.
” Good evening president?” Stephen, Lucas’ PA greeted Dimitri but the man glared at him.
” What’s so good about the evening?” Dimitri grumbled. He was annoyed.
Seeing that his boss’ friend was in a bad mood, Stephen said nothing more and walked to continue with his business.
The boss keeps scary friends, even after working with Lucas for years, he’s still afraid of those two devils.
Without knocking, Dimitri pushed the door open and sauntered Inside.
He didn’t expect to find Ronald in the room with Lucas.
The two were hanging out together without inviting him? Wasn’t this betrayal from those he called friends?
” You guys meet secretly without inviting me nowadays, great! Just great!” He accused, glaring at the two men in the room.
” What’s making you so grumpy like a woman on get periods?” Ronald was the first to ask, his eyes narrowing at his friends who barged on them and started throwing accusations their way.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
” Are you not supposed to be on your way to a business meeting? What are you doing here?” Lucas asked, a frown sitting on his face.
They had talked with Dimitri yesterday and the guy informed him that he would be travelling.
” If I didn’t come here today, how would I have known that you guys have been secretly cutting me off? I feel betrayed.” Dimitri spat.
” What’s wrong with you buddy? Did you wake up on tbe wrong side of the bed?” Ronald asked, his eyes narrowing into slits. He was getting affected my their friend’s accusation.
” We have a business together and we were in tbe middle of a discussion when you barged in and started spouting nonsense.” Lucas answered. He was the calmer among the trio.
” Why didn’t you tell me? You watched me make a fool of myself infront of your woman. If you told me earlier, I would not have made such an error?” Dimitri’s hardened eyes watched Lucas, accusation deeply laced in his words.
” What do you mean? Can you talk in a human language?” Lucas retorted. For some reason, he wasn’t liking the direction of the conversation nor did he understand what Dimitri was accusing him off.
” You knew that your woman has a twin sister yet you allowed me to mistake her as my Goddess.” Dimitri explained, his words making a frown to settle on lucas’ face.
Even Ronald turned to look at Lucas with a frown.
The trio was known to be open to each other, not hiding secrets.
They even shared gossip about their latest fling, of course, Ronald was the only one gossiping because the rest two were still virgin boys.
It would be hard for anybody to believe that at their age, the two men have never had sex with a lady.
” I don’t know what you are talking about.” Lucas replied flatly.
It was after that night the thought of his little woman having a twin sister crossed his mind but he ignored the Idea almost immediately.
He had Known Mr Santos since he was a young boy and the man only had one daughter.
It was impossible for him to have another secret daughter, or wasn’t it?
” Don’t deny it. I saw the two of them at the airport.” Dimitri affirmed.
” I think Lucas is speaking the truth. I did my investigation and I did not find any trace of another child belonging to Mr Santos. He only has a daughter from his late wife.” Ronald chirped in.
” Are you trying to say I am crazy?” Dimitri felt depressed.
He saw two identical twins with his two eyes, how comes his friends say that his Goddess is non existent.
” I heard your woman call her sister. I swear I am not lying!” Dimitri grumbled, annoyed.
How could his friends not believe that he saw two and not one Santos daughter?
” We believe you Dimitri. We just need to find out who exactly your goddess is. It’s possible they are twins separated at birth and reunited not long ago.” Ronald explained, trying to calm their friend who was getting worked up each passing second.
” He’s right. I will ask her about it.” Lucas said, removing his phone, ready to call his little wife.
” No need, I have already called my parents. We will visit her parents tomorrow to arrange a marriage between the two of us. I will let you Know.” Dimitri said, casting one lady look at his friends before walking away.
He believed his friends, they would never lie to him.
He could trust them with his life, that’s how strong their relationship was.
What he didn’t understand was how there was zero information about his goddess.
Was she his imagination all along? But he did touch her with his hands, there’s no way she was not real.
He can still remember her angry expression back at the airport and how she cursed him.
There is no way she exists in his mind only.
Since he will be heading to the Santos family tomorrow, he would ensure he gets to the bottom of the matter.
He was going to marry his Goddess at any cost.
His parents sounded excited over the news of him finding a woman he intended to marry.
He knew he could count on them to make the arrangement go through.
Dimitri tossed and turned in bed all night long. He could not find it in himself to close his eyes. Every time he did, the beautiful image of his Goddess would appear in his mind, making him smile.
The following morning, he woke up as early as five and started preparing himself.
He racked his wardrobe, finding something outstanding to wear.
He was meeting his Goddess and his future father-in-law, he had to look his best.
