Sold To Mr President

“Yes, my name is Collins,” he said smoothly.

Ruby had a bright smile to offer the man in front of him, there is no doubt about that, and as she bowed her head she continued to pick her the rest of the groceries on the ground. She needs to be really quick, there is no way that she is not going to do this thing straight, absolutely no way, she has to make sure that she is saved from Ethan’s trouble this evening, the resounding slap he had given her earlier made her head to hurt her, it is obvious, and there is nothing she can do about it.

“Miss, I am still waiting for your name, remember I asked the question first? it will only be fair if you tell me yours now,” Collins reminded her in a cool and beautiful way.

Rolling her eyes, she knew that he was correct with the words he blurted out of his mouth, that was the truth, and there was nothing to do about it, but then, she didn’t feel like she wanted anything to do with him right now, she just braced her mind around it, smiled brightly before saying,

“You don’t need to know my name, I am anonymous,” Ruby said.

Raising a brow, Collins stared at her weirdly. She sounded like an old radio that had been turned on, and he wriggled his nostrils as if it was not him that he was talking to. Sighing he brushed his mind away from it and the thoughts as a whole.

Collins was a little uncomfortable that while he spoke to the lady, she tried his best to be calm and pick the rest of the foodstuffs on the ground, like seriously, who will want to pick up things that have fallen everywhere when there is money and time to rush back in there and buy those things. Like seriously, who does that?’ he wondered in his mind rolling his eyes.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

Well, that wasn’t what was important now, the most important thing is that times are going to be harsh, everything wouldn’t always be as planned, and at times, just forgetting it might solve several questions.

Collins gently placed his hand on the lady’s shoulder blade, and the effect was striking especially when she got terrified.

“Oh my God! you scared me!” she murmured.

“I am sorry, I didn’t know that you weren’t attentive,” he blurted out.

He should never have known, there is no reason that he should have known, at least, non that he can actually think about.

Actually, Ruby knows th reason why she has been so scared, this is because she passed part of her time picking the foodstuffs and stuffing them in her bag, there is no way that she would have gone free when all the content of the plastic bag had fallen to the ground. The earlier she picks everything and starts heading home, the better it will be for her.

Ruby was busily picking them when she heard the young man beside her say,

“Stop picking those things miss, let us return to the grocery shop, I promise to pay for everything that was in the bag__ please,” Collins added when he knew that his words needed more support than it actually had.

Hearing this, Ruby’s eyes widened in shock, she could not believe her ears, it this was a succulent offer In which she had the urge to close her eyes and dive into it, but on another thought, she just had cold feet to do so.

It aches a lot that she actually has so many things to do, but she can’t possibly do so because she fears that Ethan might show up to ruin the show for her. In fact leaving with Ethan over the years was kind of embarrassing, there is no possible thing that she can do right now, she feels so down that her mind is just going to blow away.

“What do you want from me? was hitting me not enough, Sir? please, I will love it if you just leave now, thank you,” Ruby mouthed.

Hearing this, it caused Collins heart to meltdown, he had never imagined in his entire life that a lady will talk to him in this manner, this is because he is always the easy going type, especially with ladies, he is very handy with them, so handy that they all love him, there is no doubt about that.

This is because Collins is cool, not only that he is easy going, more than anything he can even ever think about, and the thoughts are just going to murder his life with it.

Widening his eyes, he glared at the lady in front of him as if her head had been struck with a bat. For a moment, she thought the lady was calm and easygoing and had also fallen under his charms, well, that means he had just been lying to himself, and all these things aren’t true. But then, this brings them to another point which he likes so much, trying to break the ice on girls that are always difficult to get.

It makes him happy, more than anything he has ever got to see in his entire life, and if Ruby was going to be in that category, then, he is gladly going to put her through the stress of bearing him through, that is the most important thing that he has ever got to see.

“Why would you talk to me like that? besides, I was just trying to make conversation out of the little we already have, and now, all you have to do is make things worse? come on, that is not fair, no! it is not fair at all,” Collins blurted out ad he stared at me with bright eyes.

Creasing her mind away from what Collins had just said, Ruby didn’t to cry__ well, that is the most she can do now, nothing more, that to sob. It is bizarre that this man will vomit all these things from his mouth, and Ruby’s face turned pink already because of the heat that had been generated in it from what the young man had said.

Well, Ruby wasn’t strong with words, but it is evident that she will need to talk back against this man, that is the only thing she can do right now. Brushing her mind aside she continued picking the rest of the groceries. It happened that this is the strongest of the bags, and had also contained a majority of the stuff, but then, it is kind of embarrassing because it has brought her through this now.

She wouldn’t blame it on the standing there because it is her fault, yes, it is her fault and she is going to amend it, but there is no way that she can amen it when the man beside her has given her one hell of a problem. It is so annoying, just so annoying that she can’t think about it, not at all.

“Miss? please, I am sorry if I said anything awkward, but then, you can allow me to help you, I also know that sometimes accepting help might be difficult but just take a deep breath and allow me to handle the whole stuff, it wouldn’t do you any harm I assure you that,” Collins said sweetly.

Staring at him right now, he was right, Ruby could see the sincerity embedded in them, but she blatantly refused because she didn’t want to get herself in trouble, it is going to be so bad that she can’t even position her mind around it.

“Please, Sir, I know that you want to be so kind and polite towards me, but please, I do not want to get involve with you in any way possible, if you can just let me be, then, I will be so glad, more than I can ever imagine,” Ruby concluded.

Sighing, she tried searching if she could find anything else to pick. Nope, she had finally picked everything and the bag was now filled with groceries once more. She gave a small chuckle of victory, it shows that she is happy, she is more than excited that such a thing had happened to her, and she was grateful that she had picked everything up herself. This is the best joy that could actually ever secluded her. The energy is positive, and there is nothing she can even think about.

Collins saw it too, he smiled brightly at her, it is actually a great thing for her to have done all these things. She seemed so determined that she could pick everything, and save up some money, she has gladly done it, and the joy that spreads through her mind is like no one has ever imagined it, it makes her glad so much.

“I guess I have to tell you congratulations right now, I am so glad that you could do such a thing with so much dignity, I mean, I don’t know if there is going to be any case that I am ever going to see, so, I rather enjoy this one the way it is right now,” Collins murmured.

His voice was light, his intentions, are pure and they are a clear delight, there is nothing that he can do about it right now. Collins is now considered as the bad guy, it is kind of awkward but he doesn’t have anything to reapproach her with, nothing at all. Since this part was clear, he decided to move to another part, that is the only thing needed right now.

“Alright, where do you leave? I want to give you a ride,” Collins murmured.

Hearing this, Ruby widened her eyes in shock, this is the first time someone was actually going to ask her for a ride, the first time, her concern wasn’t instead if she had not gone, she would have been dead by now, and this is something she doesn’t want to consider to her heart because it is going to be tough, she didn’t want to accept her doings, it is not going to pass well like that.

“A ride? hell no!” Ruby murmured in a rush.

Collins widened his eyes and cocked his head to the corner, he couldn’t believe his ears, he was simply trying to help her, and not the other way round, it will just make things impossible for him, it is kind of frustrating more than ever.

Like seriously, things aren’t going on well as he had planned it, the lady is really one pain in the ass, it is so frustrating to know that someone doesn’t give in to him, like seriously, he is handsome, he had a good plan of securing a good future for himself too, and thus, messing around with ladies Is just the best thing he can afford right now, but then, how will he do that when he is not even serious with the lady in front of him, not like she turns him on, but then, there are several things that he can do for her is she just accepts his sweet offers like returning to the grocery shop or doing one thing or the other that is so familiar to him but strange to her.

Like seriously, when did giving a ride to someone become a taboo? he wondered, just thinking about it made his head to ache him so much, it is kind of annoying.

“Come on, Girl, it’s not like I am going to take you to my house and take advantage of you, no! I just want to help you out. Alright, if you have a car, show me where it is so that I can at least carry your bags to the boot before leaving,” he announced gently. There is no doubt that he has a true gentle man, but it didn’t affect, Ruby even one bit, just thinking about it made her roll her eyes.

“I don’t have a car,”
