Sold To Mr President

Collins widened his eyes in shock, he couldn’t believe the lady’s imprudence. Like seriously, at first, he had thought that it had been normal for the lady to reject his numerous offers because she is in a sticky situation, or more, has a car in which she will have to ride back home. In fact, he was about to leave when he heard her say that so, he suddenly changed his mind to stay.

There is practically no way that he is going to allow this lady here, considering the fact that it is already late. Hell no! that will be against their rules, and thus, it wouldn’t be a good thing if anything happens to the lady, more like a junky had harassed someone, and when he wants to check it__ boom! it is the lady he met last night and didn’t help.

To Collins, such stories don’t always end well, and to his ego and conscience, it is going to be so embarrassing, more than the word itself. Rolling his eyes, he decided to brush his mind aside, this mind was kind of blown away by these memories.

Ruby noticed the young man’s discomfort, especially over the fact that he had zoomed away from her.

“Hey! what are you thinking about?” Ruby inquired raising her brows so that she will see the man’s face clearly.

Even if she saw it, she just decided to brush her mind around it. Hearing this, Collin’s eyes became a shade of dark, he wanted to talk to her about what she thinks, about how insecure she will be I she allows gom alone here, it is going to be so inappropriate more than anything he has ever seen In his entire life. Sighing, he decided to let her know about what he thinks about right now, especially how stubborn she is acting, it just so pisses her off, more than anything she can ever think about, the stress of just thinking about it is more than he can ever imagine in his entire life.

Glaring at her from half close eyelids, he decided to explain his mind to the lady in front of her. If not for anything, he decides to make her happy by answering her question. If answering her will make a bright smile to pop on her bright cheeks, then, he is ready to go so.

“Ehmm! I was thinking about how unsafe you are going to be if you stay here__ alone. You know, you just said you do not have a car and all that. I don’t really think that is ever going to be possible even allow you here, my conscience is going to judge me, regardless of anything, and that is not what I want, no, Instead, I want something that is comfortable for you, by the way, it is late already,” Collins muttered.

Ruby had the urge to slap this man across the face, but no! she didn’t, she found out that her hands were so weak, she felt how her legs quivered, there is no doubt about how this is going to work already, as she stared at him in amazement, she felt like she is going to cry.

On second thoughts, she concluded that sharing her tears in front of this man isn’t worth it, firstly, she doesn’t know him, not only that but then, accepting help from a stranger is one kind of a risk that she is not ready to dive into it so easily. Like seriously, the risks involved in it are so dangerous, more than the words themselves, and as he brushed his mind aside, she tried rolling her eyes away from it.

This all has to do with the young man’s safety. It is no doubt that Ruby leaves with a demon as a roommate, that part is so obvious, yes, it is and there is no doubt about it, and unlike that, she decided to brace her mind around it, all these things will end up as a nightmare if Ethan comes into the picture. Like seriously, things couldn’t possibly go well, there is nothing that can be braced like the way it is, there is even nothing to talk about and as she thought about it, she shivered lightly.

“Oh my God! Collins, you are just so unbearable, what do you mean by that now? in case you do not know, I am a big girl now, and I can take care of myself perfectly well. I do not even think that someone or something can even betray me, or more come close to me in the name of attacking me. I am a strong lady and I can possibly defend myself so perfectly well, thus, there is no need for you to protect me. By the way, entering your car doesn’t mean I am safe, what if you are worse than the drama you are trying to put up In my mind? come on, I am no little brat that will get excited after spotting a dingy car, and not only that, will have the anxiety to jump into it. Sorry to tell you this, but it seems like you feel into the wrong cage now,” she exploded.

To say that Collins was caught aback after listening to everything that left the young man’s mouth, then it is an understatement. Like seriously, Collins couldn’t find the words to talk, she just remained silent, she frowned her face, and there is nothing she can think about it, no, no! not at all and as he braced his mind aside, he got his teeth trying his best not to sound rude.

It is not her fault that she feels insecure, and Collins understands this better, it just made his mind to ache him so much. But then, one thing with the young man is that he is a peace maker, there is nothing that he has to do with the young lady, all his plans have always been to make things possible for people to see him as been transparent. Yes! he has to be transparent to the core, if not, people wouldn’t trust him, they wouldn’t even believe him, but then, he has built his relationship with people based on his good acts, this is only what is worth it, nothing more nothing less.

The worse is when he thinks about how his senior brother Xavier trusts him. Yes, it can only trust that will make things work well between them, especially when it has to do with campaign and stuffs like that, Xavier has made it his own to are that such things are being entrusted and done by Collins. He believes so much in him that nothing can split them apart, nothing at all.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Collins was deep in thoughts for a moment, he couldn’t even think of anything possible, but then, he kind of brushed his mind aside from that stuff, it isn’t helpful at all, not at all.

Ruby noticed the hard core expression collins face, it was kind of awkward and she felt like punching his hand across his face. It is kind of weird, there is nothing as beautiful as those stressed out lines in front of his face, there is nothing even as worse as seeing it, rolling her eyes, she decided to call him by the name, in order to wake him from his doom.

“Collins! come back to earth will you? now tell me, why on earth will you be so drowsy to this extent? you seemed so tired and weak as if you have had a long and stressful day at work. Please, do not make me keep you here for so long, as you can see, I have everything prepared already, now, if you do not mind, you can leave now, I am doing just fine, by the way, you need much rest, your eyes are so heavy already, and you keep zooming out of consciousness. Now! if you do not mind, you can take your leave now,” Ruby exploded.

Collins was brought back to consciousness with just her ragged voice, the words were sour, and as every word penetrated her ears, he felt like he wanted to just brace his mind around it, there is nothing that he wants to do about it.

There was a bright hue that crushed through the man’s face, she felt the heat, it was more than anything she has ever got to feel in his entire life, more like those things were a taboo to him, he didn’t even want to position his mind around it.

Heaving a deep sigh that seemed to have been clutched in her throat for a very long time, Collins finally had the urge to talk to her, but then, not as if her words had affected him in any way or not. All what he had ever wanted to do was to be polite to her, at least, to treat her like a gentleman and that is all.

Well, it is obvious that those dreams have been truncated, it is something bad to even react to it, and that is exactly why he doesn’t want to help her based on what she had just said. Adding anger to this whole fiasco wouldn’t be the best, not at all, and in case he doesn’t know, Collins has the key to either solve the whole issue or to escalate the war, the solution lies in his tongue, and as a man filled with wisdom, he didn’t want to make matters to be complicated, not at all, and as such, he thought that being polite would be the solution to the problem he has in mind right now.

“I am sorry If I have offended you with my words, I sincerely apologized on that part. Now, if you do not mind, can I at least board you a cab home? that is since you said I might be a suspect myself. Please, don’t deny that fact, I beg of you,” Collins called sweetly.

Bowing her head lightly, Rubh didn’t want to stare at the man that glared at her. Even though he could not see his eyes, she knew that his attention was on her, his eyes searched her face and every other thing. In fact, just staying away from this man is clear proof that she didn’t want to see the young man’s face, she thinks that it is intimidating, or maybe so possessive but then, anything that has to do with him is better off brushed away from the mind. Just sighing is the only means through which she can leave in peace.

The reason why Ruby had placed her head down is because she was trying her best to avoid his eyes, not only that, she didn’t know how to tell the young man that she is not having transport fare. At least, that is a very good point to start, how on earth will she pay for a cab when she doesn’t have money? she wondered.

Her head was aching her as she thought about it, this is the worst thing that she has ever think about it, her mind is literally blown off, she can’t even think of anything reasonable right now, and the fact that entering the cab might only bring her future drama and challenges, she decided to make things work her way and not the way she wants it.

“What do you want from me?” she inquired sourly.

Raising a brow at her, she decided to clear her throat and look deep into Collin’s eyes. There is nothing that she is ready to listen to this man, in fact, she has made her mind to do the things already, as she glared at him with wide eyes, she didn’t have anything to say to him anymore.

Collins was dumbfounded, she couldn’t believe that such things could ever happen, in fact, the lady’s eyes on his made his face to be stretched out, yet he didn’t fight back.
