Chapter 286 - You sent for me? (2/2)

Frustrated, Claire stomped out of the house; her eyes glared at the guards as she approached them;

''Where is he? '' she asked, and the one standing in front replied;

''The president has an important meeting to attend; he requested that you stay in your room till he comes back. ''

Claire scoffed; '��are you f.u.c.kn' kidding me right now? You kidnap me and now you tell me that he's not here. Do you think I have all day? '' she was visibly mad but the guards were not even moving an inch.

''Take me back, right now!''

''Ma'am, the president asks that you remain here, it's an order, and we were told to apply force if you resist. ''

Claire could not believe her ears, she stared at the guards in disgust and then she laughed angrily; if she knew this would happen she wouldn't have gone with them. Heaving angrily, she stomped off to her room.

Claire waited all day for her father, but he did not return. Leo called and she explained everything to him, he told her not to worry and they spoke for hours before they ended the call.

She had refused to eat anything but he made her promise him that she would eat, so as soon as she took her shower, she sat down to have dinner.

She was still in the middle of eating when a guard walked to her;

''Ma'am, the president requests your presence, and he asks that you dress properly, you have a visitor. ''

Claire blinked; did he perhaps bring over one of his numerous suitors?

She was already angry but the thought that he kidnapped her only to make her meet some strange man, made her mad. The meal she was eating felt sour in her mouth and she quickly dropped her cutleries. Drinking water from the cup by her side, she stood up from the chair;

She was putting on a short nightie, and the only reason she didn't wear it to meet him was because it showed too much flesh, she didn't want any other man seeing so much of her skin so she went back to her room and changed into something else, but very casual, she intentionally wanted to annoy her father.

When she got to his side of the house, she met them in the living room. Well, it seemed that he was well prepared because everyone was seated, from a young man in his early thirties to his parents, obviously, and the first lady with her husband.

Claire gulped and then forced a smile;

''I didn't know there was a party happening, good evening all, '' she said with an obviously strained smile as she walked into the living room.

The parents of the boy were the first to respond with a smile on their faces;

''Wow, she is so much prettier in person, how are you dear? '' His father asked. Claire looked to him with a hidden glare as she bit on her tongue.

He was sizing her up like she was some commodity and the worst part of it was that her father was part of it all. Could she hate this man any more?

Chuckling she smiled; ''I'm great and you? ''

''We're all fine. '' Claire nodded. They had expected her to look at their son or talk to him, but instead she turned to her father.

''Father, you sent for me? ''
