He is the one(completed)

THIS STORY IS UNEDITED, BUT I PLAN TO EDIT IN THE NEAREST FUTURE. READ AT WILL, ENJOY THE STORY. PLEASE, DON'T FAIL TO SPOT OUT A MISTAKE WHEN YOU SEE ONE. AUTO CORRECT f***s ME UP A LOT AND IT'LL BE EASIER TO CORRECT WHEN IT'S BEEN POINTED OUT AND BE NICE ABOUT IT. THANKS Emerald's pov “Yes, he is the one I want.” Dad just stared at me in shock, but I wasn't going to back down now. It's Dickson or no one else. "Him? Emi are kidding me?" Why is dad making this sound like a taboo? Dickson is also as much human as we are. He might not be as wealthy but he was also a respectable young man. “Daddy, it's him or no one else. Besides you promised that I was going to get what ever I asked for,” I whined giving him my best puppy eyes. How long can you deny me? I thought, making a countdown in my head and had to smile, when he gave me his approval. “Alright, fine. I'll give you anything. Even if it means stooping as low as  having that man as my son in-law, which means dragging our prestigious family's name in the dirt but you're worth it.” He kissed my forehead and I couldn't help my heart, it was beating so erratically, I thought it'd explode. My dad is everything I have, I never got to know my mum. She was just the prostitute who got pregnant and dumped me for dad, saying she wasn't ready for any extra baggage at that time. So it has just been me and daddy from the beginning, so blame him because I'm spoilt rotten. “Thank you Daddy, I love you.” "I love you too my angel. So should I call him in and get you two married?" I got up immediately, stopping him from grabbing his phone. “No daddy, I want to make him fall in love with me for who I am. I don't want to force him into this,” I tried to reason with him. “So if then, what am I going to do to help because he doesn't look the least interested in you.” Daddy never knows, maybe he secretly likes me but can't make a move on me because I'm his boss's daughter. Men are just funny like that! “Just get him closer to me, make him my driver and personal bodyguard, then I'll take it from there. Please dad don't get involved or you might scare him, I'll tell you when I need you to step in.” I am determined to win his love on my own and force my way into his heart. I'll do everything in my power to have him as mine even if I have to become his b***h. “Good morning sir, good morning ma'am.” Dickson greeted as he walked into our living room. All I could focus on, were his large muscles, which still managed to make their appearance through his shirt. His dark complexion and large brown eyes, was what got me all the more attracted. He is quite the tall man, while I am not as tall and is more on the lighter side. Though I'm a big girl, tall, huge ass and big breasts but his height completely shames mine. “Dickson, please have a seat.” My dad offered, making a hand gesture at the sofa that rested opposite of where I sat. He sat down reluctantly with uncertainty evident on his face. His humility, was one trait of his that couldn't go unnoticed. Our eyes connected and I smiled but he looked away. Am I that repulsive? Wow, so much ego for my beauty, when the man I want can't even look at my face. “I want to discuss something very important with you, and I want you to listen care fully," my dad said. Dickson adjusted in his seat, looking uncomfortable and my heart went out to him. He didn't have to be so formal, he'll soon be family anyways. “You know my daughter Emerald, she was in London for her studies when you started working here but as you noticed, she's been back for almost a year now.” Dickson nodded his head in undivided attention to whatever my dad was saying while I kept checking him out. “I want you to be her driver and personal bodyguard. Wherever she goes, you go. Are we clear?” “Crystal clear sir.” He shifted his attention to me and I could see the dislike he had for me in his eyes. Woah, am I that ugly? “It's going to be a pleasure working with you ma'am.” Lies!!!... I could see it wasn't his pleasure at all but who cares, with time he'll warm up to me with the lots of care and s*x I intend on giving him. “Oh me too, please just call me Emerald or Emi is even preferable.” I said, batting my long eyelashes at him. He didn't even smile or act like a beautiful lady was in front of him. I felt so embarrassed, not knowing what to say till dad broke the silence. “Now you can leave, She'll let you know when she's leaving the house.” He stood up immediately, like he was just waiting to be told so he could leave. “May I have your number, so just in case I can call you when you're not close and I need to go somewhere.” I asked, hoping he wouldn't refuse. His eyes shifted from mine to my dad's and back to mine. “I'm sorry ma'am, that's inappropriate so I can't.” He walked out, closing the door leaving me and dad alone now. "Daddy!"... I whined, going over to where he sat and placed my head in his lap. "He keeps ignoring all the green lights I'm giving him, am I not attractive?" I had to ask because I was feeling so insecure right now. No man has ever done that to me, in fact they fall at my feet. Being the daughter to one of the richest men in Lagos, coupled with my flawless beauty, I really had a lot of dogs kissing my ass all the time. But Dickson was different, he never looked at me but I fell in love the very first time I set my eyes on him. I've been trying to get his attention, but he never looks my way. “Don't ever think like that princess, you're very beautiful and any man will want you. He's just scared I was here and that shows respect,” daddy smiled. “Good choice princess, I like this boy.” I just smiled to myself, knowing with my dad's approval now, I had my man for sure. Now all I have to do, is work towards having his undivided attention. ************************************ “Don't wait here, I want you to join me inside.” I smiled at him, even though he just looked straight ahead not sparing me a stare. He unbuckled his seat belt and walked out, then opened the passenger side and I climbed out. He still seemed angry from earlier, when I'd asked him to drive me over to a restaurant. I wanted just time for both of us, to talk and try to know each other better. I refused sitting in the backseat, even though he wasn't pleased, I said I was going to sit by his side and not let him drive me around. “Miss Iso!” I cringed at the loud voice of Constance, which welcomed me the minutes we stepped into the restaurant. How tired I am of her pretentious attitude, she acts like she's into me but it's just my money or should I rather say; my dad's money. “Welcome! Her royal Emeraldness. This way please,” she said smiling like a fool. I just rolled my eyes as I followed her with Dickson closely behind me. “Please enjoy yourself and call if you need anything,” she said snarkily, not really pleased because I took the regular table and not the VIP. I turned around to see Dickson still standing beside me. “Aren't you joining me?” A look of surprise, crossed his face before it went back to being stoic again. “No I'm not supposed to, just go ahead ma.” “I insist, please sit.” He reluctantly sat down and ordered just water. The silence became too uncomfortable, so I had to say something. “So tell me about yourself.” “There's nothing to tell, and my personal life is none of your business ma.” That wasn't what I expected but I'll let it slide and won't let him spoil this date for us. “You can stop calling me ma, I told you earlier, you can call me Emerald, I'll really prefer that.” “Alright ma'am, sorry I mean Emerald.” He quickly corrected himself. “So Dickson, do you have a girlfriend?” I asked what has been bothering me for sometime now, hoping he didn't because I'll break them up if that is what it takes to have him and it's not going to be fair on the girl. Why was I suddenly feeling jealous even when he hasn't answered my question yet? “No I don't, not that it's any of your business ma.” Oh so now we're back to the formality again just because I asked a simple question? But I was relieved he didn't anyways, it was better that way, because I know he's all mine. “I'm Twenty five years old and I graduated from Cambridge.” I had to start up a conversation  since he wouldn't talk to me and he seemed uninterested, but I carried on. “I've been noticing you for some time now since I got back, can we be friends?” He raised he head up and stared straight into my eyes, “no I don't want to be friends with you, let's just keep it formal between us and I doubt your dad will be impressed too if he heard of any personal relationship between us.” He stood up, adjusting his coat, “I'll wait outside, once you are done from here you join me in the car.” I watched him leave, till he was out of sight. To say I was embarrassed, was an understatement. He rejected me without batting an eye and he’s now using my dad for an excuse. No way is this going to work with my dad around and I needed to step up my game immediately! No longer having any appetite, I grabbed my bag and walked out even when Constance kept yelling trying to get my attention. That ass kissing b***h! She just knows how to annoy the f**k out of me. When Dickky saw me, he put his phone in his pocket and opened the back door for me, I turned around and got in the passenger side completely ignoring him. He got in buckling himself up and drove out of the parking lot. Throughout the drive home, he didn't say a word to me. He kept clenching his jaws, I know he was mad and I didn't feel like angering him more so I kept quiet. The security man opened up the gates as we got home and he drove in, parking the car in the garage. He went to open the door, but I grabbed his arm stopping him. I made sure we made eye contact before I spoke up. “Thanks for today Dickky, I had a great time.” I kissed his lips before he could respond and he just sat there shocked staring at me. I got off the car and entered the house still smiling as I reminisced about the kiss. “If Iyke got you smiling this way, I give you my blessings! Just get married already.” My dad chuckled startling me a little and bringing me out of my thoughts. “Dad... It's not as easy as you think, he's holding back because of you. I think it's time for a plan B.” I crossed my arms over my chest, waiting for his opinion. The situation was by far tougher than what I'd expected but she was ready to fight for him... “You're right Emi, let me see what I can do.” He grabbed his phone from the centre table and dialed some digits on. "Hello Iyke, let me see you in here for a minute...” This is chapter one, and another chapter coming up very soon. Vote+ comment+share.
