Sold To Mr President

Chapter 52 Saving Ruby



“Driver, we should pass through the old road leading to the Afriland restaurant, I want to get myself a decent meal and drink from them,” Xavier muttered out silently

He had being sulking ever since they left the hospital, and Michael nodded his head gently as he glanced through the rear view stealing a small peak at them. It was awesome, he kind of liked it, and the excitement from it is like no other, and he mean it. Actually, working with Xavier is so fun, and with a very respectable family. With that, everyone would love to work with him, and for Mike, it is an opportunity that he will never want to give out on earth, never.

As they approached the scene where Ethan was busily beating Ruby, Xavier had to speak up.

“What is going on there? why us that man hitting that lady so bad? oh! that is so terrible. You need to pull over, we at Least need to know what is going on there,” Xavier said as he kept his head out of the window.

Michael obeyed his master, and the moment they all passed the the place, Xavier saw blood on the road, and the worst part of it being that despite fact that the had passed there, they did not stop, not at all, till it became something tough to handle.

“Oh my sweet heaven, Michael, pull the car over now,” Xavier commanded, and the moment he did so, there is no way that he could even do otherwise, the pain from it was just too much, more than the word itself.

As the engine of the car died down, the young man pushed the car open as he came out from it. He doesn’t know why he had moved out of the car, but then, that is important for him to do so, as if that is not enough, the young man now tried his best make things even worse as he walked towards the people saw in front of him.

“Hey, man! they do not hit a lady till she bleeds, stop that, man!” Xavier yelled out as he hurried towards them.

Ruby had heard the sound of a car passing by, and even though she had called out for help, Ethan had silenced her, it was automatic and as if that was not enough, he slapped her accross the face making her to fall face downward. She felt so much pain, as if she as going to pass out, and the more she did so, she wept her life out. It was a sad news but then, what more can be done about it? nothing, absolutely nothing at all.

When she heard the man’s voice calling out on Ethan to stop, she cried out for help already as she lifted her bloodh face to stare at the man. Ruby was in shock when she saw that it was the man she had seen on the TV a while ago. He was still dressed in the clothes he had on, only that his suit had being taken off. Ruby’s eyes sparkled with hope, she knew deep in her that Xavier could help her, thus, she did not hesitate when it had to do with cryin out for help.

Mustering all the energy she has on her, the young lady gathered her breathe to use it on begging Xavier, he was some sort of redemption to her life right now, and seizing the opportunity is the only thing she has left right now.

“Please, help me,” Ruby called out.

Her eyes shone brightly, it was awesome, and as she gladed at him with pleading eyes. The truth is that no matter how she begs the man, Ethan will never allow her to go, and that is the simple truth she is supposed to put it in her mind, and that is it.

Heaving a gently sigh, there is no way that she could see a man like Xavier Barley and not ask for help, there is absolutely no way at all.

Ruby was not the only one to be shocked when he saw Xavier, Ethan was as well, when he heard he man’s huge baritone talk to him in that manner. It was awkward, and the manner in which he stared at his rival for a while was just so awkward, he could barely detach his eyes from him.

Ethan’s greatest worry was meeting Xavier, and here he was now, in front of him, yet, he doesn’t have a zeal to kill him but then, what more can he do? nothing. He has no gun with him, and a hand to hand fight will mean that Xavier might not die, and might bring suspicions to his side, especially as he noticed the driver that was in the car.

The truth is that Ethan needs to be as distracted as possible, theree is no way that ae can pull out his real identity out because it might be a big problem to him, one that he is not ready for. Not only that, in case he gets himself in trouble, no one will ever get him out of this shit, not even Don Oscar, and the worst part of it is that he might be killed If need be.

“And what if I don’t? what will you do to me?” Ethan asked staring at the man daringly.

It was awkward because Xavier was not here to fight, he just wanted to be a gent and save the lady, apart from that, he wasn’t ready to soil himself here because he is trying to teach a man how to live in a society, it will not make no sense at all, absolutely none. Heaving a gentle sigh from her throat, the young man tried her best to figure out what is going on, and might be settle their problems amicably.

“Nothing, I will do absolutely nothing to you, but then, you need to stop fighting the lady, she is a female for heaven’s sake, and real men fight with men, and not some weak creatures thag God created to compliment is,” Xavier spat out.

He looked so simple with the glare he had on his handsome face, it was awkward for him to fight, but then, he needed to start by being a respectable person in the society, and show a good example, which will be so amusing.

Ethan gave out a wry laughter, it was so funny to him knowing that Xavier stood in front of him giving a moral lesson on how to pubish Ruby.

“I will slap her, what will you do to me?” Ethan shot our as he slapped Ruby across her face.

That was enough to make Ruby burst out in tears. All her limbs ached her, she felt like life was suddenly coming to an end, she wept her life out, but then, what more can she do about it? nothing at all.

Xavier on his part was so damn angry, it was awkward, but then, what more can he do? he was furious over certain things, and over the fact that the man in front of him had disrespected him so much.

Before Ethan could figure out what is going on, he was on the floor, after receiving a shocking blow from Xavier. It was unexpected, like the speed of the wind, and it was just so speedy that he couldn’t help it at all.

He had a split lip and blood spilled out of her mouth. That was just so annoying, and as he stood up from the ground, he was so mad, but then, that is it, there is nothing to do right away. Sighing, the man wiped the blood from his lips as he decided to talk back at Xavier.

“Ruby is my slave, she belongs to me, thus, there is nothing you can do about it. I own her, now, if you know what is good for her, you will better leave this place because I am not going to leave this witch till I am done with her, so you better leave or you watch the show, and oh! did I tell you that the show was free?” Ethan muttered out.

That was the weirdest thing that she has ever done in her entire life, in fact, the anger in Xavier now bubbled up in him, he wished he could hit the psychopath so hard that a tooth might as well just kick out of his mouth. He hates his guts, and what more could he do other than handling things with care? at least for the sake that things couldn’t get any better right now.

“Wow! I will take that as a weird compliment, but then, you better leave this lady go if not I might as well call the cops, just let the lady go,” Xavier spat ont angrily. Like seriously, He was really just mad at everything right now, especially at the man in front of her, he couldn’t understand why a man will suffer another human as if she was inhuman.

“Like I said, I own Ruby, she is my slave,” Ethan spat out angrily.

The manner in which he said it was just so bad, it irritated the Xavier. Suddenly, an idea stroke through his mind, but then, he decided to make things better as he glared at the man daringly.

“You say you own the lady, huh? sell her to me then and free her from this captivity, from this involuntary slavery,” Xavier said staring into the man’s deep blue eyes.

Ruby stared at what was going on with bright eyes, she could not believe what Xavier had just said. It was the worst thing that had where happened to her, and the anger in her was just so much, and the worst part of it is that she had to talk about it.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

“What was that you just said? sold me? how on earth can I be a good that can be purchased?” Ruby cried out in anger.

That was abnormal, and the moment she said it, the two men glared at her as if they were about to eat her up.

“Yes, I want to buy you if that will make this man happy, I mean who the hell does that?” he asked raising his brows.

For a moment, the young lady was so damn confused, she could barely think about it. Ethan on his part was going to be so mad at the man, he saw it as opportunity to stalk the lady’s life, that was horrible, truth be told, the man couldn’t even think of anything right now. The truth is that things don’t work the way she wants it, neither will it but better, but then, she wanted to leave the man, it was bizarre, and the manner in which he wanted to kill the lady, It was better giving it off to a man who will end up giving her to the man. But then, on a second thought, all these things will come with a prize, and that will be something that she has never done about it. Heaving a gentle sigh, the man had an idea on his own part. Ethan still considered Xavier as his original enemy, and will still feal with him, not only on the part that he wants to be the president of Douala, but also due to the circumstances at hand, it was now tough to figure somethings out.

“You want to buy Ruby, huh? alright, but that will come with a little price from Ruby’s part, are you in or out? Ethan asked as he glared at them.

Ruby did not want to be part of such a crazy show, but then, it was Xavier who was her buyer, and he is a million times better that anyone else that he had got. For a moment, she was terrified over the fact that Ethan had noticed him too, thus, might give him a high price that will make the man to leave her to her damn fate.
