Married to the President novel Chapter 76

Junxie Li told them that Theresa Mo had told her how they both gave a hand of help to her in those trying times of her life.

He thanked them saying they all have contributed in one way or the other to the existence of his kids. He doesn't know how to pay them for their kindness.

"President Li, you thank us too much. We have only fulfilled our responsibility to our friend" Lanre said.

My name is Junxie Li, not President Li. Don't be formal whenever we are together. I don't usually have friends but I see us four as friends now,"Junxie Li corrected.

"Thank you Junxie Li" Lanre said but Junxie interrupted him again.

"My first name is fine,"he insisted. They four laughed. The entire evening was a memorable one.

"Theresa, is there anything you would want us to know?" Rosa asked, passing her friend a quick glance.

Theresa Mo chuckled audibly. She took Junxie's hands and said "you already know what I have to say.

But since you want to hear it from the horse's mouth, I will say it all the same. Junxie and I are together. I love him now" Theresa Mo declared.

Junxie Li smiled. This was the first time she was saying she loved him vocally. She had confessed it before her friends.

"That's it. That's what I was trying to make you understand back then. Congratulations Theresa , Junxie" Lanre chimed.

"Congratulations bestie. You deserve to be by his side, only you deserve it" Rosa said, she stretched her hand and caressed Theresa's chin.

"And what about me Rosa? Don't I deserve to be her man?" Junxie Li asked with a feigned annoyance. They both really deserve each other and that's what he wants to hear.

"Oh yes. You are both made for each other. You are the right man for Theresa" Rosa restructured her statement.

They talked about many other things before Junxie Li said he was taking his girl home. The waiter came and Junxie Li asked him what their bills were.

"1.2million yuan" the waiter said and Junxie Li gave him his limitless card. Theresa Mo's eyes were opened. What had they eaten to cost so much? That money was more than someone's annual salary.

"Wait," Junxie Li offered. "Wrap a wine each for this couple,"Junxie Li ordered.

The waiter said Ok and said his bills were now 2million yuan.

"No, President Li, we are fine,"Rosa declined. Spending so much money to take someone out for dinner and another 800 yuan for a take home wine? No, that's too much.

"She's right President Li, we are fine" Lanre seconded to Rosa's request. He called him President Li because there was someone else in the room.

He knew that the hotel was too expensive. How can someone spend so much money on dinner? If he was getting married, how much would he spend on refreshments?

"Don't you drink red wine? Such is good for lovers' night" Junxie Li teased. He looked from Rosa to Lanre and the latter chuckled but Rosa blushed. She understood what Junxie Li meant.

"Sure, it would be great but don't bother,'' Lanre said. He shouldn't worry about him and Rosa having a super-night of love making.

"I wasn't complaining about the expenses"Junxie declared and turned to the waiter "do it quickly"

The waiter nodded and left. He pulled Theresa Mo into an embrace and held her by her waist, plainly spoiling her with his love.

" I can guess that you have been making proper use of red wine lately," Lanre teased. It was Theresa's turn to blush. She buried her face into his chest.

Junxie Li smiled. " We haven't started sleeping together. Just taking my time" Junxie Li replied and before Lanre could say another word, the waiter returned and handed the card over.

They made their way outside the hotel and got into their car. The friends bade each other farewell and before each man drove their girls away.

"I can't imagine that Theresa can be so relaxed with Junxie. She's used to his presence and not even a bit shy" Rosa chimed.

"Are you shy when you are with me?" Lanre asked and glanced sideways at her. Rosa shook her head to indicate no.

"Same way goes for Theresa. But honestly I am so happy for them both. Junxie Li readily forgot the fact that she slapped him in his office.

That's magical. They will be happy with their sons. It's nice that they become a couple and be a complete home with their kids,"Lanre chimed.

Rosa said what Lanre said was right. She's just happy for her friend. It's her time to live her life to the fullest. Her step mother and daughter can no longer bully her neither that miserable ex husband of hers.

Lanre said she's above them now and having a powerful personality like Junxie Li behind her, she can no longer be insulted by them.

"Drop me home," Rosa said, yawning slightly. She felt tired and a little drunk.

She only had a glass of wine and she's now feeling tipsy.

Lanre didn't answer her. He wanted them to get intimate. They've been together for a while now and he hasn't done anything with her.

"I want you to spend the night at my place,"Lanre said finally. Rosa turned and glanced at him sharply. "Why?" She demanded.

Still holding the steering, Lanre was calm "we've been together for a while Rosa. I am a man and I have needs. I haven't asked you for sex before, but today I want to do it with you" he was blunt.

Rosa was dazed. He wants her to be on his bed? She had thought he would wait for them to be married first before making such demands.

"I thought you would wait for us to be married, "Rosa asked. The thought of going under the quilt with Lanre hadn't really crossed her mind.

"I can't remember telling you that,"Lanre replied. They didn't say anything to each other again till they arrived home.

Junxie Li and Theresa interlocked their fingers. The former was driving with one hand and the thought of what Lanre said a while ago crossed his mind.

He wished he could take Theresa but doesn't want to hurt her. He wants her to be ready for him and when that time comes, he would know.

She would make advances to him and make him somewhat aware that she needs him. Then he would do it or rather start doing it with her.

Her first time, he took it without her permission. If he's going to have her again now, it has to be with her consent.

He felt himself hardened but he had always had the ability to suppress the urge and go on with life. That's what differentiates him from his brother.

"What does your ex husband want?"Junxie Li asked Theresa. He saw the fellow that morning and knew he came to see Theresa.

"Wants us to have dinner tonight" Theresa replied flippantly. She can't imagine how senseless he was to ask such favor from her

"What was your reply?" Junxie Li asked. He doesn't want that fellow to come seducing his woman.

"I said I was having dinner with my friends. And he said tomorrow. I told him to call and remind me about it" Theresa replied.

"Don't go alone without me or Julia. In the absence of the both of us, go with my bodyguards" Junxie Li declared.

"Who's going to dinner with him? Is it me?" Theresa Mo asked and chuckled aloud. She is not going anywhere.
