for
His good works. Welcome back home my brother”

“Shantel is not in the country right now. I leant her
parents

“No wonder” Austin exclaimed.
“brother, is there anyway for me to get her contact?
pls help me”
“Hmm. if chief Richard gets to know that you’re after
his
daughter again! I’m afraid he will kill you this time around.
so
I will suggest you let destiny decide your future with
her” Mr. Williams said.
“No, How can I go on without shantel in my life? I dont
know how to” Austin said.
“You have to. I will buy you jamb form and send you
to the village. All
