Ella walk to the door and open it Austin was backing the door so when he had the door crack he immediately turn and say Mitch... Is not Mitch is me, your dear girlfriend ask me to tell you to go home that she doesn't want to talk to you.
You know Mitchell better then I do once she has made up her mind she is not going to change it, so please go home and come back tomorrow when she has already cool down, if you continue knocking the neighbors are going to find it offensive which is not a good thing for us.....
Austin phone started ringing he wasn't going to answer it but seeing the caller name he quickly answer it hello Papa were are you me and the driver can't find you in the restaurant, sorry sweetie Papa step out of the restaurant am coming back now don't go anywhere stay there and Wait for me.

Okay I will leave but please Ella take care of Mitchell Ella nodded her head and Austin walk out, Ella walk back to Mitchell room is he gone?
Yes he is gone thanks Ella you were saying something about August being the new CEO of AWM I don't understand August is just an employee in the department of international trade Mitchell say why crying.
Don't cry Mitchell i didn't even know August was working at AWM when I went for interview today I saw him with some group of men dress in all black and I wanted to get his attention, so I started calling his name but a receptionist who was standing close to me ask me to stop.
Miss don't call the boss by his name cause if he hears you they is a big possibility you might be kick out of the company, before you are even given a chance to be interview but am calling Austin and not the boss young lady the boss is Austin.
No way Austin is my room mate boyfriend and not the boss of AWM she told me he is in the department of international trade but I didn't ask the company.
Oh dear it seems your room mate is lying to you Mr Austin is the new CEO and he is also single but she is not lying to me Austin even went to the farmers market with us and also made dinner maybe you got the wrong news ma'am how can I get the wrong news I have been working here for the past 7 years I know the company very well Mr Austin is the new CEO of AWM you can go watch business news.
Okay since you know this Mr Austin so well what university did he attended and what year did he finish? He attended university of Lagos and finish 2022 that is correct are you really sure he is the CEO of AWM yes of course am 💯 sure.
Mitchell began to cry even more harder so you are saying August doesn't work at AWM as a regular employee but the CEO?
Yes but am sure he has a good reason for not telling you Mitchell sniff and say he doesn't he has been lying to me I don't even know him any more Ella, I also found out he has a daughter maybe he also have a wife😭.
I don't think so let not come to a conclusion yet I was about to eat dinner why don't you join me go ahead am not hungry Mitchell sniff again okay, then I will leave some for you so you can have something to eat if you feel hungry later.
Mitchell stay up all night crying and thinking about everything she just learnt about Austin. What if he is already married what will I do no, no, no he is not married he told me he has never been in a relationship or did he lie because if he has never been in a relationship he won't have a daughter ahhh! this is just so confusing.....
God please maybe all this might be a misunderstanding or a bad dream it can be anything but not reality I love Augustine so much I can't let him go, I can't live without him cause even though my heart hurts so much I still want him 😭.
Mitchell continue crying her eyes out and didn't get any single sleep when it was morning she prepare for work and left with out eating any breakfast.
