Chapter 109: Chapter 109
Iqmat’s father was in the living room, sitting on the chair and facing the television. The television was just on and not that he was watching it, even he just got to the living room not quite long.
His wife came out from the kitchen and down to the living room that he was, wearing a very beautiful gown and looking so smart on her body.
"You sent for me, my love" She said with low voice as she got there.
"Oh yes, thank you for coming" He said with low voice and faced her.
"I want you to go and help me to call your daughter downstairs, and let her come with you" Iqmat’s father said.
"Okay, I will be right back" His wife replied him and leaving, going upstairs.
She climbed the staircases up, got to the corner there and going to Iqmat’s bedroom. She knocked at the door, didn't wait for response before she opened the door.
Iqmat was laying on the bed, used pillow to support herself and pressing phone. She put the phone down as she saw her mother entering and looking at her.
"Get down now, your father wants to see you downstairs" Iqmat’s mother said with low voice.
"Is Ashar downstairs?" She asked with low voice.
"Are you expecting him?" Her mother too asked back.
"No, thought they are downstairs and that is why you are here to call me" Iqmat said with low voice and still laying down.
"Nobody is here, just get up and let's go" Her mother said. Iqmat took her phone and got down from the bed.
Her mother turned back and going out, Iqmat followed her and she closed the door from behind.
Two of them got down to the living room after few minutes, Iqmat’s mother sat down beside her husband and Iqmat sat down on another chair opposite to them and after greeting her father.
Her father was looking at her for few minutes and didn't utter a word; for like three days now that Iqmat had locked herself in the room her father didn't step to her door and they haven't see each other.
"How are you daughter?" He asked after few minutes of silent, reposition the way he was sitting and facing her eye to eye.
"I am fine Sir!" Iqmat replied with low voice.
"Let me first say this. One, you are wrong for your actions; locked yourself in your room, not responding to anyone even your mother and started sending messages to different people. Texting them that we are not after your happiness, and it's will good if you leave this earth and some toxic messages like that" Iqmat’s mother breathe in as her husband said.
"Let me tell you, everything that we are doing is for your own good and for the benefit of our families. Perfect Billionaire club is doing all these for your future and we know the reason for it, so not what you will just open your mouth and be saying rubbish like we don't love you. Or do you think all these are for our own benefits, maybe that is what you thought and which made you to be saying all that" Iqmat was just looking and didn’t make a sound not talk of saying a word.
"Let me ask you, for the two times that you have tried to commit suicide who used to feel the pain and went through several surgery. So telling us that you will kill yourself is nothing because no matter what it won't have deep effect on us than to cry and ask God's forgiveness for you.
You are the one that lose and that is what you don't know" her father was really telling her the truth and talking seriously.
"I don't have much to say to that, the main reason I called you here let me say it" He said and rest his back on the chair.
"Suleiman has agreed to represent this family by marrying anyone that Billionaire club gives him, but you are not the only one in this so we have to find how the both side will be balanced and that is what we are working on" He took a breathe.
"As we know, perfect Billionaire's wedding can never be cancelled. The only way on ground is to replace you with another lady who is from perfect Billionaire and we haven’t get that yet. So what I want to say is that, prepare your mind for the wedding, its going to hold and after the wedding we will know what to do. Just give us that marriage certificate first" Iqmat looked at her father.
"As we are working on it, if we find a replacement than you are free but if we don't find still the time of the wedding that means that the wedding is going to hold between you and Ashar" He explained.
"That is what I have to say, so to know that we are working on it and we are after your happiness" her father said with low voice and watching the movie.
"Daddy! Daddy!! I am sorry, I am so sorry" Iqmat knelt down on the floor and crawling like a baby to her father.
"Dad! I am sorry for my actions, forgive me please!" She said with low voice, and holding her father’s legs.
"Don't mind all these children my love, she is very sorry" her mother joined her to apologise to her father.
"I heard what you said, and no problem at all Sir. If there is nothing to do still after the wedding, I will wait and I am sorry father" She said like a baby and looking with a gentle face.
"It's fine, apology accepted" her father said with low voice.
"Oh! Thank you Dad!" "Thank you my love!" Iqmat and her mother said in chorused and hugged him with smiles on their face.

Somia, her mother, Nibia, Semirat, Tomiwa and the laundry man were all with Ibrahim and inside the ward. They were talking, share experiences and enjoying the weekend.
Since that Ibrahim had felt fine, just remained for the born on his leg to heal and able to be walking very well. So the nurses were not disturbing them that they were too many in the room.
"I am telling you, if I am the guy I will just pack my load and leave the house for that woman" the laundry man said and saying to the story that Somia’s mother just finished saying.
"That is what the man did then, he left the house and didn’t say anything" Somia's mother said.
"That is better to avoid killing each others" Somia said and everybody laughed loudly.
"It's true now because that kind of thing is so bad and it's act of heartless" Somia said.
"Yes you are right, but many things are happening on this earth sha----" Semirat was talking when Somia's phone started ringing.
"Is that Ashar? We are expecting him" Semirat said.
"It's unknown number but true caller is showing UMAR ABUBAKAR, I think it's Uncle" She said, picked the call and put it on speak.
"Hello Somia, this is your Uncle Umar" Somia's mother hissed as she heard his voice.
"I have known that it's your Uncle" Somia said with low voice.
"What I called for is that, let’s us do it. I am ready to do it, so let us meet tomorrow morning around ten clock" He said with low voice.
"I want it to be outside the company since its now between you and I, so it's will good to let it be outside the company. So let us meet at Orlando restaurant----" He was talking when Somia stopped him.
"Unle, you have chose the day and the time. So since you want it to be outside the company, I will choose the place" Somia said with loud voice and her mother said 'that is good' silently.
"It's okay, so where should we meet then?" Her uncle asked.
"I will get back to you on that, be expecting my call in two or one hour later" Somia said with low voice and hanged up from the call.
"I told you that he will do it, I know Uncle very well" Somia said.
"Wow! That is very good" Ibrahim said and smiles.
"Where can we use? Do you know where we can use?" Somia asked and talking to the laundry man.
"I know a restaurant that we can use, we will just have to buy it for one hour or thirty minutes that you will use" the guy said.
"Okay, but why do we have to buy the place. We can just go there and do what we want to do" Somia said with low voice.
"I know your Uncle than you do, he is very a dangerous and wise man" the guy said.
"Why I said that we will buy the place is to restrict people's movement for entering at that time. And all the workers that will be there by that time will be Amontekun armies, so in case if your Uncle want to pay smart because he may have a plan for him to want to use outside the company" the guy said.
"Yes, and I agreed with him. He is very correct, your Uncle is deadly" Somia's mother said.
"This is for security purpose, so let’s do it like that" the guy said.
"Alright, so what is the name of the restaurant and let me call him back"
"Don't call me yet, let me call one of my boys first" the laundry man said and making a phone call. Somia was looking at him and waiting for him.

"I am expecting your call in some minutes" the laundry man said and hanged up from the call.
"He will call back in some minutes time" the guy said and talking to Somia.
"Thank you, how much is the money?" Somia asked.

"This that you are just doing all these and keep saying never mind, why are you doing this?" Somia said.
"Doing all that, because I am expecting bigger thing from you ma" the guy said with smiles and everybody laughed.
