Agent Jeff And The Governor's Daughter Part 4

I really wasn’t fond of guys because of the nasty experience I had with them right from high school to college. Returning to Nigeria in 2007, I still kept my resentment and distance from them. Yes my decision to stay away from guys caused me less stress, less worries and less thinking. I loved my independence and surely was enjoying every bit of it. 

Moreover the power and attention I got from being the governor’s niece was equally enough to bring up my pride and ego. I enjoyed being the center of attraction and gossip. Of course I had numerous admirers. I had lots of rich suitor’s coming for me but none of them won my heart because all I saw in their eyes was desperation, greed and business. I needed someone who would love everything about me and not what he stood to benefit from me. I needed nothing but pure and simple love. In fact I needed a simple guy who had ambitions devoid of greed and deception.

From the moment I saw agent Jeff that fateful Saturday, I instantly was drawn to him without really knowing the reason. Maybe because he somehow looked like my immediate senior brother or maybe because of the innocent look he had which I had never seen in any agent. I liked him, I wanted to be his friend and I just couldn’t help myself but the only problem I had was that he

looked way too serious like someone scared of playing with his job. I had to find a way to make him loosen up with me without making it obvious that I was falling for him.

I had to make my way to his room when I couldn’t control my feelings any longer. But don’t get me wrong. I wasn’t in his room to seduce him but just to keep him company for a while.

To be continued.

guys I need ur comments before posting next Part

I don't know if I will continue this story,,because u guys just read without commenting

‘’I hope you are not in need of anything?’’ Blessed asked as we exchanged glances. ‘’oh not at all. Thanks for your care’’ I breathed politely while she shrugged, leaving her eyes on me. We silently stared at each other for a while without saying anything. I couldn’t think out any topic to discuss with her and she on her own part looked as if she was hoping for me to start a conversation. ‘’tomorrow we will be moving down to the governor’s family house downtown. Lydia will be receiving her friends and guests there.

You know it’s against protocol for her friends to be coming here as they wish. So that’s why she decided it was better moving down to the other house to have the space and freedom she needs’’ Blessed finally informed me after noticing that I wasn’t ready to start up any conversation with her. ‘’very well. I’m ready for anything’’ I replied with a smile. ‘’good night then. We will be leaving by 12noon’’ she added, stood up, smiled at me and left the room while I fell back on my bed and breathed deeply.

9am, Sunday morning I was busy checking out the car we were to make use of that day when a female “civil defense” officer walked up to me. ‘’someone wants to see you. He is waiting at the gate’’ she informed. I couldn’t help but stare at her curiously. It was with great effort that I refrained myself from telling her that she was mistaken because I clearly wasn’t expecting anyone.

Curiously I walked up to the gate to see one of the governor’s aides waiting for me. I was surprised and confused at the same time.

‘’hey my name is Ben, I’m not really sure if you know me?. I’m sorry for disturbing you this early but it’s a matter of urgency’’ the young man breathed as he led me to a quiet corner while I wondered the reason for all that. Of course I knew him well even though we had never spoken to each other prior to that moment.

He was no other person than the governor’s special assistant on youth matters. A young man of about thirty three years, very friendly and eloquent. ‘’I really need your help brother and I know this may come to you as a surprise but I can’t help it. You see I’m in love with Lydia’’ he nervously breathed, shocking me with his words. I couldn’t even figure out how to react or what to say to him. ‘’I heard you guys are very close and that you will be with her at all times. Please I know this sounds weird but I will like you to be my eyes and ears. I simply want you to represent my interest. I really love this girl and you know what I mean’’ he added nervously.

‘’I understand you bro but what you are asking of me is a bit difficult and confusing. Lydia is an adult and I don’t have much influence over her. Blessed her cousin should be the person to meet’’ I finally said to him.

‘’no you are a man just like me. Just keep it in mind, in due time you will see your role in this’’ he muttered with a smile while I shrugged.

‘’here take this small change. It’s just ten thousand naira. keep it’’ he said, fetching out a wad of currency notes from his pocket. I laughed deep inside. His gesture looked a bit desperate and stupid. Moreover I was an agent who was perhaps earning much more than him. But he didn’t know about that though.

‘’you shouldn’t bother about that. I will help you as long as your request isn’t a dangerous one. Just keep your money bro’’ I breathed politely, smiled and walked away. I couldn’t help but wonder how many men were desperate to have the governor’s daughter. She was a hot catch quite alright. later in the evening at the governor’s family residence.

Blessed and I sat on a small field at the back of the big mansion enjoying a very rich alcoholic wine together. It really wasn’t my idea to sit down there at the back of the house drinking and catching fun. It was all Blessed’s idea and I kind of obliged her since it was already dark and I had no other work to do that evening.

But the more she drank, the more I noticed the drink taking over her senses. She talked very freely while I behaved like a gentleman. ‘’so tell me, do you have a girlfriend?’’ she finally asked while I drew back a bit.
