Chapter 53 053
STEVEN
Mix of emotions.

This isn't something I want to know about, at least not now. I stood staring at the exact thing Douglas kept pointing at, on his tab.

For some reason, I chose not to want to comprehend.

But at the same time, I knew what might be happening. My mind flashed back to my years in business school when my Dad came visiting.

“Yo, Steven, are you sure about this?” Frederick, a colleague of mine lashed out.

“I'm very sure…..I told you I already made my findings. Its legit and certain we would get enormous returns from it…..”

“.....you know what this means, right? If we put it all in, it's gonna be boom, like a golden bag!!” I added.

“Golden bag, you say, Steven? C'mon, you and I both know I am not from a wealthy family like yourself. If I do this and it goes south, I am done for,” Frederick lamented loudly.

“You are gold, I'm not,” he teased further.

“It will work, man. I'm so damn sure about it. If anything happens, I'm sure I can refund you. Let's just do this, friend,” I said.

“I feel somehow about this…have you spoken to your fuck babe about this?” He replied.

“Fuck babe? Are you talking about Katherina? C'mon, dude. You shouldn't call her that. I told you I am getting into something serious with her so don't see her like that!” I objected.

He laughed, “Hmmm..okay if you say so….have you told her cause I know you tell her everything you do in this school….” 

“I don't intend telling her about this. This is just for the boys. This is business. I don't feel the girls are knowledgeable on things like this..they have their space and business ain't part of it,” I uttered.

“Is that what you think? You know I have had quite some conversation with the ladies. They are not all that bad most especially Katherina. She seem to know a lot about business and I am not even joking…” Frederick responded.

“You did what? So you think they have something to offer in the business world? I scoffed out loudly. “I totally disagree. Women are for the home, the bed and of course the kitchen. They should leave the wealth creation to us….” I answered.

“.....hold on….and what do you mean, you had a conversation with Katherina….when did that happen?” I lashed out.

“Uhmm….easy now, tiger. I don't mean it the way you are thinking. It was harmless and it was outdoor. I have no interest in your fuck babe,” he blurted.

“You really need to stop calling her that….Just let it out to me, friend, are you in or out?” 

He was about to respond when a loud knock hit the door all of a sudden.

“Fuck!”

“How could I forget?” I exclaimed.

“Uhn, forgot what? Who could be knocking you at your door? Did you invite anyone over?” Frederick whispered.

“Its my dad…” I responded inaudible.

“Hold on…..your father, the Mr. Gold….” He blurted out so loud I had to cover up his mouth with my hands.

‘When I open the door, you got to act like you were about leaving,” I signaled to him that minute.

“Uhmmm, Dad…” I muttered as soon as I handled the door knob carefully.

“What took you so long, Son? I told you I was flying in today, right?”

“Yes sir,” I nodded in response.

“Mr. Gold….its so nice to see you, Sir. I'm Frederick, uh…Steven's colleague and friend,” he introduced himself, stretching his hands for a handshake but Dad didn't even flinch like he was going to receive him.

Bullshit! I forgot to tell him my father was extra cautious about handshakes. He had a pretty bad experience about it like he told me.

“Uhmm….Fred….I'd see you later,” I interrupted the almost awkward situation and locked the door behind him as he walked out in shame.

“Dad, you should have……” I blurted but he threw a hug around me, shutting me up.

“Its so good to see you son. How is it going here? Catching up or slacking? Talk to me….” He said, not minding what he had just done to Frederick.

He seemed to be much more concerned about my progress in the business school. I wasn't surprised either ways. He is definitely to spy on his investment cause I am aware of the enormous amount he had spent on getting me here.

Rumors even has it that my father was one of the biggest shareholders in there but it wasn't known to all and sundry.

Mr Ray, Gold, very typical of my father, to have the biggest shares somewhere and he won't even act it out but his pride comes when he is being challenged on his financial capability. 

Oh, you really don't want to involve him in that sort of competition!!!

“Father it's been okay. I am handling it well. The classes has been nice and comprehensive….” I answered confidently.

If all he knew about sexual adventures within the school…to me, that's the most fun part, meeting my sassy and hot Katherina.

“C'mon, give me more. What do you have hands on? I am sure they are opening you up to real business cycle experience. You should play around with your financial analysis and investment skills, son,” he uttered.

He spoke as though he knew I had my hands into something already. The same one I was discussing with Frederick. 

“There is no way he could have just figured out. My father must be a wizard, probably sniffing out anything business around him….” I pondered.

“So….I….I invested into something, Dad but I am not…uhm……” I stuttered.

I couldn't continue. At first, I blamed myself for speaking out so quick but then I had to continue and I  had fallen into the trap of making him know his suspicions were true.

How then do I stop what I have started?

“Go on, go on….what did you invest in?” He asked.

“Uhm….can I just show the scope of the whole thing?” I answered with a straight face.

“I don't mind,” he replied.

He turned to have his seat on the couch and there I noticed, I left one of my condom pack just at the edge of the chair.

No way he would sit and that pack would come up from where it was hanging.

Damn!!!
