When he arrived he got out of his car and went to knock on the door Aisha said "who is that i am coming" she answered the door and saw a very handsome Chidi looking at her, Chidi was also amazed he had never seen a girl so beautiful, he thought he was in love.

She decided to call Chidi which she did the phone rang a few times before he picked the call he said "hello" Isabella said "this money is not complete you only sent two hundred thousand instead of five hundred thousand why" Chidi laughed a bit and said "that is because the client was not satisfied with your performance".

Chidi grabbed her arm and said "look you better not create a scene i know you need the money" Isabella looked at him she sat down and said "i do but" Chidi said "but what we are talking about two million dollars here, five hundred thousand would be all yours if you do it" he then leaned back on his chair, Isabella really needed the money so she said "okay but i would not accept cash just pay the money into my account" Chidi looked at her and said "that is so nice no problem just give me your account number".

Aisha looked at Isabella with so much anger and said "of cause it won't happen again i want you out of my place tomorrow morning" Isabella went to beg Aisha but she said "no please just leave". The next day when Aisha left for her early morning class, Isabella hurriedly went to purchase a brand new television set and a very nice sofa.

She heard foot steps and a voice that said "who left this door open" it was Aisha's voice, Isabella then proceeded to hide the suit case filled with dollars underneath the bed, she took of her dress and also hid it in her box and tied a towel, Aisha saw Isabella and said "hmm where did you go to last night". 

Isabella was not in the mood for questions so she said rudely "that is non of your business" with that Isabella went into the bathroom, Aisha then said "is my business because this is my house" Isabella ignored Aisha's word and proceeded to have her bath, while she was bathing she thought out loud "so i can make this much money in one night" she decided that she was going to the nearest bureau de change, she was going to change fifty thousand dollars out of the one million dollars.

She quickly came out of the bathroom wore her clothes, took out fifty thousand dollars, put back the case underneath the bed and headed towards the nearest bureau de change, but she forgot to lock the door. She was able to change the fifty thousand dollars to naira and she headed back to Aisha's place. When she got there the door was open, she immediately went inside and found out some items had being stolen like the two plastic chairs and the Television, she quickly ran to check underneath the bed, the case filled with her dollars was also stolen.

Chapter 17 : More Money

Isabella wondered how she was going to get home, Jubril was waiting for her answer, Isabella then said "i came here all by myself"Jubril smiled and then  whispered into her ears "would you really like to go somewhere with me" Isabella was definitely in the mood she replied back into Jubril's ears "yes i sure would like that" she was a bit tipsy, so she followed Jubril to his private hotel room they had rough sex that night.

The next morning Isabella woke up on the soft hotel room sheets so smooth to the touch, she had never slept on anything as nice as this in her entire life, breakfast was on the table, Jubril was in shower, Isabella was so tired though, when Jubril came out of the shower he looked at Isabella with anger in his eyes and said "your still here" Isabella was surprised was it the same guy she spoke to last night.

Jubril then went to the wardrobe and brought out a case of money he threw the case at Isabella and said "pick it up and get out or i would have my men throw you out" Isabella hurriedly picked up the case of money and ran out with her shoes in her hands, when she arrived Aisha's place, she opened the door and entered the house, when she got to the room she decided to open the case, she was so amazed at what she saw, it was dollar bundles, she decided to count the money one by one, she was so shocked at how much she had counted, one million dollars.

Chapter 16 : Am I In

Isabella saw top ranking officials, CEO's and even moguls that owned multi million dollar companies she was satisfied, i have made it she thought to herself, she looked at Chidi and smiled, Chidi looked at her and said "you look happy go mingle" Isabella was surprised once again at what Chidi had said she replied "i should go mingle but i" Chidi interrupted her and said "i mean it go mingle" she looked at him and said "okay".

Isabella just stood in one position with the glass of champagne half filled then a tall handsome man holding a big bottle of moet approached her, it was the son to the current emir of Kano, he looked at her and said "would you like some more" Isabella was so amazed that she said "more what sir" he laughed and said "more champagne" she looked down at her glass and said "yes i would" he then poured some moet champagne into her glass.

He then proceeded to ask her "what is your name" Isabella told him her name and said "what about you sir" he answered "i am Jubril and please stop calling me sir okay" they began chit chatting for a bit and Jubril then said "who did you come here with" Isabella looked around with her eyes but she could not find Chidi anywhere, unknown to her, Chidi had left the party to his condo about ten minutes ago.

Chapter 15 : How Could You

Isabella was even more amazed when they got into the party, the interior was so grand, everyone looked beautiful and this time she dressed the part so there were no awkward stares but one thing came to her mind there more pretty girls in the party walking around than there were men, she decided not to think so deep into it.

A middle aged man approached Chidi and nicely shook his hand the man's name was Jeffrey, he then looked at Isabella who was also staring at the grand decor and said to Chidi "is she the one" Chidi said with a smile on his face "yes she's the one" Jeffrey then ushered them into a room in the mansion, it was even more beautiful, it was like an office, they both sat on the expensive chairs and they were served champagne.

Then Jeffrey proceeded to pull out a paper from the desk and told Isabella to sign it, Isabella almost choked on her drink she said "why should i sign it" Jeffrey got a bit irritated and said to Chidi "you did not tell her" Chidi then wrongly explained to Isabella that is was for discretion, Isabella stupidly believed him and signed the paper, Jeffrey then ushered them into another part of the mansion, Isabella was so shocked and pleased at the same time by the calibre of people she saw next.

Chapter 14 : Classy

Chidi was also dressed in a black bow tie and a suit, he looked even more handsome so she thought, Isabella had no idea she going into something deep, so deep she would not be able to come out of it, Chidi looked at her and said "you look nice" Isabella smiled while touching her hair and said "you too".

Chidi then opened the door and said "shall we" they went towards the elevator, he pressed the button it opened and they entered the elevator, he pressed the L button the doors closed, they soon arrived the condo's lobby, they stepped out of the elevator and headed towards the escalade, they arrived at their destination it was a beautiful floral mansion were a classy party was being held.

The driver proceeded to open the door for Chidi and Isabella they stepped out of the car, Chidi said to the driver "i would call you, you know what to do" the driver nodded his head and left with the car, they went to the entrance, one of the security men said "name please" Chidi looked at Isabella and smiled he then said "Chidi" the security man checked the guest list, nodded his head and then let them in.

So this were the rich ones stay Isabella thought to herself, the door man opened the door for her she walked in, the concierge at the front desk said "here to see Mr Chidi i presume" Isabella nodded her head while admiring the condo's lobby, there was even a beautiful water fountain in the lobby, Isabella went towards the fountain to have a closer look, she even tried to touch it but was immediately stopped by the concierge who politely said "please don't touch that".

They proceeded to the elevator the concierge pressed the number twenty, the doors closed and the elevator took Isabella to the floor were Chidi lived, when the doors opened she saw Chidi who was waiting in the hallway for her, she stepped out of the elevator, she was so excited to see Chidi once again.

Chidi led the way, he opened the door and Isabella walked in she had never seen so many expensive things in one place, this guy must be really rich she thought to herself once again, unknown to Isabella Chidi actually came from a wealthy family, his parents owned a ton of oil blocks around the world even an oil rig they were really affluent, they had the nicest things money could buy such as cars, yachts, mansions even horses but Chidi was not good news.

Chapter 12 : The Gift

Isabella wondered why the delivery man was dressed in a suit holding the package, this must be an expensive gift she thought to herself, the delivery man then said "this is for you i would be waiting for you in the car" with that he headed towards the car, all the girls leaving in that vicinity came out to see the escalade packed in front of Aisha's place.

Isabella immediately went into the bedroom with the gift to see what it was, when she opened the package, their was another huge gift box, she then  opened it she saw the most beautiful dress and a note beside it which read "wear this and meet me tonight" Isabella was so happy, she immediately went to have her bath, put on the beautiful dress and went to meet the delivery man, everyone was staring at Isabella they even whispered amongst each other, Isabella ignored them and entered the escalade and the delivery man drove away.

When they arrived at the destination the delivery man who was actually a driver in a suit got out of the car and proceeded to open the door for Isabella, she stepped out of the car and she was so amazed by what she saw, a beautiful condominium, she had never been to this part of Benue in her whole life. 

Chapter 11 : The New Girl

Isabella immediately went to hug him and she also kissed him on the cheek and said "thank you so much i finally have a phone" Chidi looked at her and said "excuse me" Isabella thought Chidi was going to take the phone back because of what she had said, instead Chidi said "you now have the latest custom made iphone open it and look at the back".

Isabella did as Chidi had requested and she looked at the back it said "take care of me don't spoil me" Isabella smiled a bit and said "thank you so much how do i" Chidi interrupted her and said "its okay just don't spoil this one" Isabella jumped up and down and said "no i won't oh" with that Chidi gave her a hug and left.

Isabella could not stop admiring her new phone, it had also being setup for her, suddenly the phone rang and she answered, it was Chidi he said "by the way this is my number you can always call me i also sent you a gift it would arrive at your door step any moment from now", with that he hung up the call. 

A few moments later there was a knock on the door Isabella put on her slippers with excitement and went to see who it was, when she got to door she saw a delivery man, he was dressed in a suit with a huge package in his hands.

Chapter 10 : Who Is She

Isabella walked to her class with smiles on her face, she was so happy, she had finally struck gold, could he really be into me i mean he wanted to see me again she thought herself, meanwhile Maria and her friends who had seen Isabella step out of Chidi's car were wondering who she was Maria said to her friends "but Chidi has a girlfriend her name is Elsa they have been together for years now, who is this girl" her friends also wondered.

Maria immediately gave Elsa a call and told her what she had seen, Elsa was furious she said over the phone line "that stupid Chidi i am pregnant for him and he does this to me i swear if i get him" Maria immediately interrupted her and said "the stupid girl is in class now should we confront her" Elsa said "no not yet just find out who she is and were she comes from okay" with that Elsa hung up the call.

When lectures was over Isabella immediately went to wait for Chidi at the spot were he had dropped her, Isabella waited for atleast twenty minutes before he arrived, Isabella was so glad once again, she proceeded to the nice car, she opened the door, got in the car, closed the door and Chidi drove of. When they arrived Aisha's place, Chidi looked at the place with a little bit of disgust in his eyes he then said "you stay here you know what its okay i got you something" he brought out the brand new iphone he got for her, Isabella was so surprised and happy at the same time.

Chapter 9 : Why Is He Nice

Chapter 8 : Have We Met

Isabella woke up the next morning feeling tired, she stretched her hands and yawned a bit, she saw Aisha getting ready for lectures, Aisha said "madam goodmorning what happened to you yesterday, you came home looking like a wet dog" Isabella looked at Aisha and said "i don't want to talk about it" Aisha was unbothered she said "okay oh i am going to class" with that Aisha left for lectures.

Isabella decided to put what had happened to her aside and head to class, she thought out loud to herself "i am going to focus on my studies and forget about these rich boys" with that she went into the bathroom to have her bath, an hour later she was ready for lectures, she looked at her worn out sandals which was no good anymore and decided to wear Aisha's shoes, after she was done, she opened the door, came out, locked it and headed out to her first class.

On her way to her class which was on the main campus, she was still in thoughts as she held her course books in her hands while she walked slowly, she did not realize she was walking on the road, she almost got knocked down by a very nice car, the car stopped and Chidi got out, he quickly went towards her, held her by the shoulder and said "are you okay" Isabella looked at the handsome chidi and said "yes i am fine" she did not recognise him.
