"Of all ladies Mum, the daughter of Mrs. Taiwo? Ah! I'm not interested - oh. You never cease to amaze me, you know." Ugo said.

"Amaze? What's amazing in this? That I'm helping you to set your future right with the right lady?" Mrs. Lambert said.

"Son, look at me." She touched his face with her left hand as she drew him closer. "This is exactly the kind of union necessary for this family. The Lambert's family and the Taiwo's family coming together. It would be the most prestigious amalgamation of the century." Mrs. Lambert said.

"Oh, it's no longer someone that would respect you? It's now because of family name abi? Mum, you keep amazing me." Ugo said.

"What amazement? You mean you haven't seen what is more amazing than this in your life before? I think you are the one amazing me right now. It's simple. Her family has a long history with ours. So it's easier for I and her to get along. Thus, we would be using one stone in killing two birds." She said.

"Oh my God. So it's all about you Mum. Not what I want. Not my happiness, my future or what gives me joy? Mum, I think this time around I would not follow your choice. I'm just telling you now so you know." Ugo said as he walked out of the room angrily and hurriedly, before the Mum would be able to change his mind.

It was after this happened that he had made the arrangements of the restaurant's proposals.

Apparently, the whole plan had not worked out. Otherwise Angela would have accepted his proposal.

He was surprised at the decline. "We had earlier sorted out the issues we had as regards Mum". He thought to himself. However, he later got to know why Angela had declined the proposal. Mrs. Lambert was definitely involved.
