not blind, are you? I overheard everything your father said to you. I'd rather sleep in my apartment tonight. I can't stand the heat," Nikki wailed as she attempted to exit the room wi

er father to ask questions. He was excited but stunned about his response. She has no idea how long he's been waiting for her to say that. "It's a bit overwhelming. Last time I checked, we almost came to blows when I told her about the arranged marriage. So what changed? I thought she mentioned her relationship with Johnson. Did that idiot break up with her?

There's absolutely nothing he can do to stop the wedding from happening. *************** "You can't go inside. The CEO gave strict instruction not to allow any visitor to come in," the secretary said, blocking the door entrance. "Have you gone nuts? You do realize whom you're talking to?" The visitor boasted. "I'm only following strict orders, sir. If you don't comply, I'll be forced to call security to come bundle you out of this office like a common criminal. Do the right thing and leave immediately!"
