Beautiful Lady Took A Homeless Beggar Home, Not Knowing He Is The World’s Richest Man

 

 

Thank you. God bless you. Good people are rewarded. Please help me with food money. Thank you. Good people are rewarded.  Wait, is that Chidi Amadi? No, it can’t be him. It’s really him. Chidi Amadi, our old classmates. The same Chidi from secondary school. How did he become a beggar? Life happened. Ugochi, wasn’t he your ex-boyfriend? Please.

That thing, I don’t know him. But you dated him back then. That was long ago. We broke up. I don’t even remember him.    Thank you. God bless you. Good people are rewarded.  So embarrassing. Imagine acknowledging him. What if someone sees us close to him? People will think we are beggars like him.

Let me record this. Nobody will believe it. The genius boy from our class is now a beggar. Look at him. Chidi Amadi begging. This is good content for my social media page.   I don’t want him recognizing me. Let’s go. It’s awkward. All right, let’s move. Now, before he sees. Thank God we didn’t greet him.

I don’t want anyone knowing we were once his classmates.  Thank you. Good people are rewarded.    Chairman, the begging period is complete. One full month, just as you instructed. A total of 100 people donated to your bowl during the month. Only 100? Yes, Chairman. Their identities have all been verified.

 Pull out their full details, names, contacts, background struggles. I want to know who they are. Yes, Chairman.  Prepare the support plan. How large should the support be, sir? Each of them must receive enough to change their destiny. Not token help, real support. Good people deserve good rewards. Anyone who can show kindness to someone they believe is nothing has something rare inside them.

Those are the people    we invest in. Chairman, the annual wealth summit has begun. The guests are already arriving. Should we return to the company now so you can host it? Not yet. You go first. I’ll come later.  Chidi.  What are you  doing here? Why are you like this?  I remember her.

   We went to the same school.  But we were never close. We barely spoke beyond passing greetings. I was busy with my own life and she always kept to herself.  Still, I remember her. She always stood out without trying.  I I called to work at Dream Chasing Group. They told me to report immediately.

Then I saw you and I couldn’t believe it. Chidi, why are you begging? You used to do business. People said you were trying to build something.  My business failed.  I’m sorry. I wish you didn’t have to go through all this. I can’t leave you like this. I wish I could change this moment.  I have seen people toss coins with pride.

 I have seen people ignore me with disgust. I have seen people mock me openly. There is concern in her eyes. There is respect. Why does that unsettle me more than the insults? Do you dislike me now?  Dislike you? Chidi, how could you think that? Chidi, you didn’t dislike me back in school, though we didn’t interact much. Why would I dislike you now? I admired you even when we weren’t close.

 You were quiet, but you carried yourself like someone who had a plan. I used to notice that. And I won’t lie. I liked you. I just never thought you you would ever look in my direction.  You don’t mind. Even now that I have nothing.  If you will have me, I don’t mind.  Why do her words affect me like this? She does not know that I am not truly poor.

I have seen how people treat a man they believe is poor. I have watched the world reveal itself.  And now she is revealing something else. Something rare.  stay here. I can’t just leave you on the street.    He’s so dirty.  Why is she with him?  That girl is very beautiful, but her eyes are not good. She chose a beggar.

 Maybe she doesn’t know what she’s doing.  So, what if he’s a beggar? I like him. Life can happen to anyone. It doesn’t mean they deserve to be mocked. Some of you are one bad day away from sitting where he is. So, be careful how you laugh at people. We’re getting married soon.  This test has already given me more than results.

 It has shown me a heart I never expected to find.  She is bringing me home with her.    She has not changed her mind.   [singing]  It is small, but it is warm, clean, peaceful, safe.  Chidi, please sit down.  I don’t want to dirty anything.  It’s okay, come sit. You’re not a total stranger. We were classmates. You belong here. Don’t be a stranger.

You need to bathe. You can use the bathroom. I’ll bring you a towel.  [singing]  Please, go and wash up. I’ll step out and buy you clothes.  You’ll buy me clothes?  Yes, you can’t stay in those clothes. I’ll be back soon.  It’s me. I want a crystal crown purchased abroad. No delays. Yes, sir. right away.

 Add a second rare wedding gift. Understood. I’ll handle it. I also want a legendary diamond gift, something that can’t be easily matched. Understood, sir. I’ll process that immediately. Ensure it is rare. It must be nearly impossible to match. And there’s a property under the group’s Asia portfolio I want transferred. Understood.

 Opening the records now, sir. Change the legal ownership. Put it in Kaima’s name. Chairman understood. Ugoci, she once called herself my girlfriend. We dated briefly before my business truly took off. She was with me because of the money my parents left behind after their death.  Bankruptcies. He’s finished.  When the company suffered a serious crash, people whispered the word bankruptcy.

 Ugoci did not stay to fight with me. She did not even ask questions. She walked away without looking back. She abandoned me when I needed her most. The coldness still surprises me whenever I remember it.  He is with me. I see  you.  She held my hand in public. She defended me. She looked at me with respect even while thinking I had nothing.

Prepare everything. The wedding will proceed. And when it happens, it will shock everyone. Understood, sir. It’s done. This brand is costly.  You must dress well. You’re the groom.  The groom?  You’re the groom.  You are really serious about marrying me.  Yes. I have never been more serious about anything.

You’re not walking out there looking like someone the world can spit on again.  There is something painful and beautiful in the way way speaks. She has already accepted me as hers. I will wear the suits when the time comes. For now, something simple is enough.    He is so handsome. I could not see him properly beneath all that dust.

 [singing]  What is this?  3 million. My savings.  Kaima, no. I cannot take this.  It’s for the wedding. Logistics, transport, settling, family introductions. You know how these things are. I don’t want you to go and be embarrassed again.  I can’t take this. It’s too much.  You will soon be my husband.

If I don’t help you, who will? Life has ups and downs. I believe you will succeed again. I don’t know how, I don’t know when, but I believe it. And when that day comes, I will be happy that I didn’t abandon you when you were down.  You don’t understand what you’re doing.  I understand. I’m choosing you.  I do not need this money, but it represents everything she is willing to risk for me.

She does not ask too many questions. She simply stays. Kaima, I will marry you with my whole heart. You have given me more than money. You have given me respect. You have given me hope. I will make you the happiest woman.  Just be honest with me. That’s all I want.  Chairman, the annual wealth summit has already started.

 All the industry leaders are present. They are waiting for you. I have to step out briefly, but the wedding is still in 2 days. Nothing changes.  Chidi, don’t hide anything from me, no matter what it is. We face it together.  Okay. Together.   [singing]  Chairman, are you ready? Yes. Let’s go.   [singing]  Welcome, God of wealth.

God of wealth has arrived. Chairman, 10 years have passed so quickly.    If not for you, I would not be where I am today.  You gave us a chance when nobody believed in us. You opened doors we didn’t even know existed.  Tell us what you want. What can we do to repay you? Just speak.  Make it simple.

I don’t need flattery. I need action. This past  month, I went out in disguise. I lived as a beggar. I wanted to see something with my own eyes. I wanted to know how people treat others when they think there is nothing to gain. 100 people. Only 100 out of thousands who passed. These 100 showed kindness, even when they did not know my identity as the God of wealth.

Some gave small, some gave big, but what matters is that they gave with a good heart. I have approved a 100-person support plan. Within 1 month, each of these people must receive enough financial support to change their destiny. Fund it. No excuses. No delays. God of wealth, you are the reason I am a billionaire today. Don’t worry.

We will do it.  Chairman, you are the reason  we still believe kindness matters.  Yes, without your wisdom, I wouldn’t be among the richest. We will execute it with speed. Good people deserve good rewards. That is the only reason wealth is meaningful in the first place. I came here as the god of wealth, but in my heart, I have already chosen her.

 She is the one person I want to kneel before, not with money, with love. There is something else. I’m getting married in 2 days.  Chairman is getting married. Our god of wealth is getting married.  Please allow us to attend. We beg you.  Yes,  marriage is a major event in your life. You have done so much for us. Let us witness this one  thing.

 No. It’s not that I don’t value you, but my bride is simple. She hasn’t seen much of the world. She hasn’t experienced this world of extreme wealth. You people are giants, the car kings, real estate kings, industry leaders. Your presence alone can shake the economy. If you come, the media will follow.  [cheering]  Attention will rise, and my identity may be exposed.

 Chairman, then we will come as ordinary people.  Yes. No suits, no bodyguards, no loud displays. We will blend in. Even if you don’t let us sit as guests, let us stand behind. Let us run errands. Let us carry chairs if we have to. We just want to be there. This is not pride. I kept a low profile for a reason.

I built the empire from the shadows. I allowed public executives to carry the attention. If these people attend carelessly, everything could break open. All right. You may attend.  But, there is one strict rule. You do not expose me. Not for jokes, not for praise, not for anything.

 Do not reveal that I am the chairman. Do not reveal that I am the world’s richest man. If anyone breaks that rule, you will ruin my wedding and you will answer to me. Yes, chairman. We understand. We will keep it hidden. Good. Then it is settled.  Just  tell her. Mommy will understand. Mommy, I have something to tell you.  What is it?  I’m getting married in 2 days.

 What? 2 days?  I’m getting married in 2 days.  What? 2 days? Married? Kaima, you want to kill me with shock.  I know it’s sudden.  Sudden? 2 days? Is it water you people are using to plan marriage now?    Ah, my daughter is beautiful. God has done it. Listen to me. When you reach your husband’s house, you must be respectful.

   You must be virtuous. You must be patient. Marriage is not a playground.  I understand, Mommy.  Even though the notice is short, we will do it. We will prepare. We will cook. We will invite people. We will not allow shame.  Mommy, I’m back.  Why are you both looking like this? What’s going on?  I’m getting married.

   Married? Married to who?  His name is Chidi Amadi.  Chidi Amadi? What does he do? Who is he? What does Chidi do? Who is he?  Just Chidi Amadi.  Amadi?  I remember that name. Isn’t that the young man whose father used to run that business before? Yes, yes, I remember.

 Their family had something going on.  No time.  We must start preparations. Ijeoma, go and tell your aunties your sister is getting married. I will call the family group.  Okay, Mom.  Kaima, bring your phone. We must send invitations to friends. Even if it’s small, we will do it properly.  Chidi. In 2 days, we will  be married.

 You people, guess what? She’s getting married.  Kaima. And you know who the groom is?  Who?  Chidi Amadi.  The beggar. Chidi? That Chidi? The beggar? The one we saw on the streets?  [gasps and sighs]   Exactly. So, she’s really serious. She wants to marry that beggar. I didn’t even know they were dating.

 We have to go there. This is not something you keep quiet about. Don’t worry. I have evidence.  [gasps] [sighs]  Chioma. What brings you here?  Auntie, we came because we can’t pretend we didn’t know. It’s about Kaima’s wedding.  What about the wedding?  Auntie, do you know that Chidi Amadi is a beggar?  What? Which Chidi?  The same one Kaima wants to marry.

He is a street beggar. Now, we saw him with our own eyes. He was on the roadside begging for food money.  No. That can’t be true.  We even recorded it because we were shocked, Auntie.  Please help me with food money. Thank you. God bless you. Good people are rewarded.  Oh my god! THANK GOD SHE HASN’T MARRIED HIM YET.

KAIMA, is this true?  Yes, Mommy. It’s him.  So, you knew?  I knew.  You knew Chidi was begging on the roadside?  Yes, Mommy.  This is why I said this wedding is too rushed. I agreed because I thought you had found a rich man. I didn’t know you hadn’t found a rich man. Haven’t even found A POOR MAN, BUT A STREET BEGGAR? IS THAT HOW MADNESS STARTS?  MOMMY,  SHUT UP! IJEOMA, do you hear this? This wedding must be canceled immediately.

 Kaima, is it true?  Yes, but I’m still marrying him.  You’re still marrying him? No, OVER MY DEAD BODY. CANCEL EVERYTHING. CALL THE PEOPLE. Stop cooking. Stop invitations. STOP ALL OF IT. AND THAT BEGGAR MUST NOT COME HERE. DO YOU HEAR ME? He must not come. I will not allow a street beggar to enter this house AND MARRY MY DAUGHTER.

 MOMMY, NO. The wedding will not be canceled.  What did you say?  I said the wedding must happen. I love him. I have loved him for a long time. He is kind. He may be poor, but he is still a human being. If he is down today, it doesn’t mean he will be down forever. We can build together.  Build together? With a street beggar? Kaima, you don’t even know what you are talking about.

 I don’t care if he is a beggar. I cannot throw him away because life has touched him. I won’t be like people who mock him.  YOU ARE CRAZY. DO YOU WANT THIS VILLAGE TO FINISH US WITH GOSSIP? Do you want people to laugh at your late father’s name? Your father worked hard and died with dignity, AND YOU WANT TO DRAG OUR FAMILY INTO SHAME?  Daddy would want me to choose kindness.

Chidi has been good to me, Mommy.  Kindness doesn’t feed a home. Love doesn’t buy food. Kaima, you will not do this rubbish under my roof.  Mommy, calm down.  No, Ijeoma. This must stop now. SHE MUST NOT MARRY HIM.  SINCE you want to marry so badly, I have an option for you.  What option?  Emeka Badella, the son of a rich man.

 He has been asking for your hand. He wants you, and he is ready. If you must marry, you will marry Emeka.  Mommy is not only rejecting Chidi. She has already chosen another man for me. I will not allow anyone to choose my life for me.  Auntie, we have to leave now. I have a salon appointment I can’t miss. We’ll be going now.

 All right. Go well.    Kaima.  Ijeoma. I understand you. And I know Mommy is just angry because she’s scared of what people will say. But leave it to me. I will talk to her. I will convince her.  You will really do that for me?  Yes. Go and continue your preparations. Don’t slow down.

  I will handle Mommy.  Thank you, my dear sister. Thank you so much. Chidi will come. Chidi will come.  Did you see her stubbornness?  I saw it.  Then you know we cannot allow this nonsense.  Mummy, don’t worry. Leave it to me.  My phone has died.  Kaima’s phone is in her bag. Kaima. My phone is dead. Give me your phone.

I need to make one or two calls about the wedding. Give it to her, Kaima. Let’s just settle everything.  Hello.  Chidi. This is Kaima’s mother.  Ma. Good afternoon.  Listen carefully. I’m calling to tell you something. Kaima doesn’t want to marry you anymore.  What?  She doesn’t want to marry you again.

So, don’t come. Don’t come and embarrass her. She wants to save her face.  Ma. Kaima did not tell me this.  She doesn’t need to tell you. Just do as I said. Don’t come. The wedding is canceled.  Kaima looked me in the eyes. She gave me her savings. She defended me in public. She said we would face everything together. This does not sound like her.

Ma. Let me speak to Kaima.  She doesn’t want to speak to you, and she will not take your call. Don’t disturb her.    Now she can’t call him. She won’t even be able to ask questions.  Something is wrong. Why is the number no longer connecting? No, I’m going. Chairman, I’m going to pay her bride price.

If she doesn’t want me, I will hear it from her mouth. But her mother already warned. Let her warn. I’m not marrying her  mother. I’m marrying her. I am going. Understood.  So that beggar still has a mouth? He still wants to come here? Mommy, he has no shame. Bride price? Is it from the money he has been gathering on the streets? The coins people throw into his bowl? Is that the bride price he wants to pay in my house? I DON’T WANT HIS BEGGAR MONEY.

He dared to ignore my warning. He thinks persistence will force me to accept him. This is not love. This is audacity. Call the boys.  Which boys? The local tough men. Let them guard the entrance. If he tries to set foot inside, they should drive him away.  Come to the entrance immediately. A man named Chidi is coming.

 Do not let him pass.     Remember, Kaima doesn’t know. Do not expose  anything. Do not ruin this for me. Nobody moves.  SO, IT’S YOU, BEGGAR DRESSED LIKE A DOG. TOLD ONE SWAN MEAT.    GOOD AFTERNOON.    WHAT AFTERNOON? We don’t greet beggars here.  I’m not here to fight.

I only came because I have an engagement with the Adaku family.  Engagement? You, a beggar?  Yes. I’m supposed to marry Kaima.  Marry? You want to marry a fine girl like that? Oga, just turn back. Before you go home with an injury.  I’m not forcing anyone. I only want to understand why I haven’t been able to reach Kaima.

Her mother called me and said she doesn’t want to marry me. That is not what Kaima told me. So, I want to hear her refusal by herself.  You want an explanation? The explanation is simple. She doesn’t want to marry a beggar. That’s all.  I still want to hear it from her. Please, make way.  You’re in no position to make demands.

 Stop.  No violence. Chairman, their behavior  I said no violence. I don’t want trouble. Please, take this. Let us pass peacefully.  You? YOU WANT TO BUY US OFF?    WHICH MONEY? THE MONEY YOU BEGGED ON THE STREET? You want to use beggar money TO SETTLE US?    SEE for me, rich man.

Where did you get the envelope? You think you are somebody.  Please, I’m not here to disrespect anyone. No violence.  Then stand there and collect your shame because you’re not passing.  No violence. I still need to hear Kaima’s voice. This is no longer a test. This is a war against love fought with pride, gossip, and cruelty.

I can tolerate them mocking me. I will not let them destroy Kaima’s future with lies.  Hugo, are you all right? Hugo!  Mommy!  Ah, she’s having a seizure. Epilepsy.  HOLD. DON’T HOLD HER.  PLEASE, SOMEBODY HELP my mommy.  She needs a hospital. Where is a car? Borrow a car from who? Don’t put her in my car. The hospital is far.

 Who will carry her?  Her child is still choking.  Please help me. My mommy will die. Please.  Leave my leg. I don’t want problem. Chairman, don’t. Look at how wicked they are. They just tried to attack you.  A life first. Sir, we can leave them. They don’t deserve. We are not like them. Give her space. Nobody should be pulling her.

 [sighs]  Wipe the foam gently. Don’t panic.  How does he know this?  Place it aside until she’s awake.  He was a beggar.  Mommy!  What? What happened? You had a seizure. You almost died. Who is this?  It’s him. He saved you.  Thank you. Thank you, my son.  Auntie, it’s fine. Everything is fine.

 No.  [snorts]  All of you, I saw everything. You were insulting him. You were stopping him like HE WAS AN ANIMAL. This man you were calling a beggar saved my life when you refused to help. If anybody stops him again, you will fight me first. Open the way. Yes, open the way. He saved my mommy.  This young man is a good  man.

 See kindness. Ah, it’s a blessing to marry a man like this.  Ah, we didn’t know.  You didn’t know what? You didn’t know you should behave like human beings.    Chairman,    should we Let’s go.  This way, sir. Pass, pass. Please forgive us.  Please, sir. After you.  We are sorry, oga. Forgive us, please.

 That man is a good man.  If Kaima marries him, it will be a blessing.  Why do I feel like the real battle is not on this road?  Today will not spoil.  Kaima still believes I am helping her. She must not discover  the truth before Emeka arrives.  Add more meat. Emeka is coming.

 Rich people don’t eat like poor people. You people think I’m joking. Emeka will bring gifts that will shock this whole area.  People were ready to laugh at this family.  When he enters here, people will know we are not a family to be joked with. Everyone will see that my daughter married wealth. This is better.

 This Emeka, he’s the kind of son-in-law we are talking about.  Yes, not that other one. Yes, he’s not reliable. That one has already broken off the marriage. He has canceled it himself. Chidi has broken it off.  What?  He won’t come again.  That is not true. Chidi is not like that. Enough. Don’t start embarrassing us again.

Mommy, let me call him. Give me my phone. Let me call him myself.  Your phone? It’s gone.  What do you mean it’s gone?  I smashed it.  Mommy, why would you do that? Why would you destroy my phone?  Because you don’t have sense. And somebody must have sense in this house.  My phone is gone. They are all watching me.

 I am standing in my own home, but I feel like a prisoner. Chidi loves me. He [snorts] will come for me.  Come for you? With his begging bowl?  Don’t talk like that.  Kaima, open your eyes. Guests are here. Food is ready. People are waiting. Do you want them to laugh at us? Do you want to disgrace us? You will accept Emeka.

   If you don’t, you will lose this family. I will DISOWN YOU WITH MY TWO HANDS.  I don’t want Emeka. I don’t like him.  Why? Because he is rich?  Because he makes my skin crawl. The last time you introduced him, he didn’t even hide it. His eyes were moving all over my body, my chest, my legs, like I was food.

 Men normally look at women that way. If a man is going to stare, you should at least allow a wealthy man to do it.  You are my elder sister, and you are not married yet. You can marry him if you like him so much.  Enough talk. TODAY YOU WILL MARRY EMEKA. IF YOU LIKE, cry from now till tomorrow. It will not change anything.

 No. I won’t marry him.  Then you will be useless in this life. And you will leave MY HOUSE TODAY.  MOMMY.  Don’t mommy me. If you don’t cooperate, you are no longer my daughter. Help me.  What are you doing?  Aunty, leave me. They are coming.  Chidi, please come.  Good afternoon.  Emeka, welcome. Welcome.

 Thank you, Mama.  We’re so glad you’re here.  Mommy. NO SHAKING.  CHINEKE! MONEY!  SMALL THING. Just 1 million to greet my mother-in-law.  See money. God bless you. This is a real man. My son.  Thank you.  A true provider.  You people haven’t seen anything. If the road wasn’t bad, I would have come with my luxury cars.

Even helicopter. But, you know, village road. My cars have a low body.  KAIMA, COME OUT. YOUR HUSBAND IS HERE.  [screaming]  AUNTY, leave me.  So, where is my bride?  She is shy. First time bride.  Shy is good. I like shy girls.  I will not marry him.  She cannot refuse me now.  So. This is how you want to disgrace me.

In front of my guests?  Mommy, I didn’t choose Emeka. I didn’t agree to this.  You will agree. Or I will PUNISH YOU HERE TODAY WHERE EVERYBODY CAN SEE. BRING HER OUT. Since she wants to behave like she has no home training. I will correct her in public.  Mommy, please.  Don’t please me. Since you want to throw away your life for a beggar, I will show YOU THAT YOU CANNOT ALSO THROW AWAY MY NAME.

 KAIMA, listen to me. If you agree to marry Emeka now, I will help you beg Mommy. We can calm her down before she does something worse.  Ijeoma, you did this. You lied. You broke my phone. You called Chidi.  Kaima, this is not the time. Look around you. If you don’t cooperate now, she will disgrace you. Later, we will talk.

 No. I will not sell myself because people are watching.  Kneel her down.  Leave me.  She’s stubborn. Ah, this girl has mind. Her mother must deal with her.  Mommy, no need to waste time. If she refuses, just do what you must do. She will learn.  You hear that? YOU WILL MARRY EMEKA TODAY. IF NOT, YOU WILL LEAVE this family.

I will expel you publicly so everybody will know you are not my daughter again.  My own mother is ready to throw me away. My sister helped trap me. The people who should protect me are trying to crush me, but I will not marry Emeka.  Kaima.  Chidi, you came. I knew you would come.  So, this is the man they tried to force on her.

I knew something was wrong because your mother called me. She told me you didn’t want to marry me anymore. She said I should not come and embarrass you.  It was a lie. A lie. I never said that. My mother and my sister lied. They destroyed my phone so I couldn’t call you. They wanted to force Emeka on me.  What?  Destroyed her phone? So, the mother lied?  Uh is that true?  Stop it.

Yes, you, this stubborn girl. YOU WANT TO FRAME US BECAUSE YOUR BEGGAR HAS COME.  EXCUSE ME. WOW. SO, you still have the guts to show your face like this? Let me help you people understand. This man is a beggar.  A failure.  Yes. I know him. We dated before. But when he started looking like a man with no future, when he was not promising, I left him.

 And if anybody wants proof, I have it. Look. This is him begging on the street. That is your groom. See? It’s Chidi.  Ah, it’s him.  He was begging.  So, it’s true.  Exactly. The story is true.  You see? This is what I have been saying. A beggar wants to marry into this family.  EXACTLY. KAIMA, OPEN YOUR EYES. This is a shame. This is disgrace.

 That video doesn’t change who he is to me. Chidi is kind. He is human.  Kind? He is a broke man. IF YOU MARRY HIM, YOU WILL SUFFER.  It’s good you left. If you didn’t leave, I might never have met the woman worth sharing my life with.  You’re still talking like you have something. Look at you. Look at your people.

Even your entourage dressed like poor villagers. What is that?  See his people like farmers. They probably borrowed these cars.    See them. They no get shame. Maybe he used Kaima’s money to rent them. Yes, THE BEGGAR’S MONEY.    KAIMA, STOP THIS NONSENSE. I am the only acceptable son-in-law here. Look at what I brought.

Look at my gifts. LOOK AT MY CLASS. This one cannot even stand in the same place with me.  Emeka is the only son-in-law I accept. Kaima, leave that beggar now.  No. I will marry Chidi. Chidi.  KAIMA, WHAT IS THIS?  Trust me, this is not the end of the story.  Since we are all here, let’s not waste time.

 Mommy, bring the list. Let everybody hear what I came with. An apartment. A proper one. Good location. CASH. HEAVY CASH. ENOUGH TO SETTLE every introduction, EVERY CEREMONY, EVERY SMALL SMALL DEMAND.  [screaming] [cheering] [applause]  AH, THIS IS A REAL MAN. See husband. Kaima, open your eyes.  [applause]   So, Mr.

 Beggar Groom, where is your own list?  Yes. Bring your bride price. Let us see what you have.  livestock food items basic household supplies and a reasonable cash gift.    That’s it? Is that a joke? Uh so this is the bride PRICE OF BEGGARS.    YOU WANT TO MARRY MY DAUGHTER WITH THIS? After I raised her? After I suffered? You want to use goats, rice, and small cash to carry my daughter?  Ma, material things are only the foundation.

What matters most is love, care, and how two people treat each other.  Love?    Love doesn’t buy land. Love doesn’t buy cars. LOVE DOESN’T BUY an apartment.  I don’t care. I’m willing to grow with him. I don’t need a man to buy my life for me. I need a man who will stand with me.  Okay. Let’s do it like this.

My wedding car is expensive. My convoy outside is real. If you can bring a real convoy now, real cars, not borrowed nonsense, then I will leave.  Yes, tell him. Let him bring it. Where will he SEE THE CONVOY?  LOOK AT THEM. Even his entourage looks like they came to borrow a chair. Chairman, may I show them what we are capable of? Chairman, see acting.

Do it, but don’t scare the locals. Bring them in.  That’s it?  You think a convoy is bread you order ON THE PHONE?    WHAT IS THAT SOUND?  What’s coming? It’s getting closer.  Oh my god.  Why so many luxury cars?  Those are million-dollar cars.  Calm down.  Yes, it must be my father’s friend.

He said he would come to congratulate me.  Welcome, sir.  Are you my father’s friend? I’m Emeka Madela.  What is your father’s name?  My father is Chief Madela.  Never heard of him.  What?  We are here for Chidi Amadi’s wedding.  Why did all these people come for Chidi? Who is the man I am holding?  I am Oke.

And I came because I couldn’t miss Chairman Chidi Amadi’s introduction ceremony. As for me, I’m only a follower compared to Chairman Chidi.  That man, isn’t that  Yes, that’s him. A big man. What? Lies. All these things are lies. It has to be lies. This is just a drama movie. Exactly. It’s acting costumes rentals.

These people think once you wear a suit, you become a boss. Those cars are in cars. Car hire is everywhere. He probably scammed some people, got a little money, and decided to do this show to deceive you people. Chidi, you are still the same, ALWAYS TRYING TO PRETEND.  ENOUGH! CALL HIM [screaming] NOW. CALL MY CONNECTION.

 MY NAME IS Samson Oma. A senior executive in Dream Chasing Group.  This girl is supporting THIS BEGGAR AND DISRUPTING MY WEDDING. SHE CLAIMS she works at Dream Chasing Group.  You. You’re a new recruit, right?  Yes.  You’re still on probation. You haven’t even passed your first stage, and you’re here embarrassing yourself, supporting nonsense, supporting impostors.

 Sir.  Don’t sir me. I can fire YOU RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW. You want to act brave? Let me show you what corporate power looks like.  I’m not supporting injustice. I’m not disrespecting anyone. I’m only saying what is right. Anyway, Dream Chasing Group has policies, fair policies.

 That is why I wanted to work there. I’ve never met the chairman, but I know the company is known for fairness. The chairman is said to be upright. He would never support corruption or bullying.  So, because you heard stories, you think you can talk anyhow?  I’m saying I won’t kneel to corruption. Fire me if you want, but I won’t lie.

 Sir, please. She’s young. She doesn’t understand. Please, don’t ruin her job.  Mommy, don’t beg him. I didn’t do anything wrong.  I will fire you publicly so that everyone will learn a lesson.  How dare you fire her? How dare you fire Kaima? Who are you to question me? Because you don’t have that right.

 Huh? See him?  No. Is it?  Chairman. Is that the chairman? The founder.  Chairman.     He is still Cheaty. But how much of his life did I never know?  Chairman. I I didn’t know you were here.  Of course you didn’t. Because if you knew you wouldn’t be behaving like a king among staff.

 I was only trying to protect the company’s reputation.  You protect the company by abusing employees? By threatening people with firing like it’s food you share? Chairman, please.  You like firing people. So, let’s do it properly. Prepare his resignation paperwork immediately.  No, Chairman, please.  You will submit your resignation today.

   If you refuse, it will be announced publicly and your career will end in this industry.  Yes.  Yes, Chairman.  He saw everything I gave him. He remembered.  From this moment Kaima is the Vice President of Dream Chasing Group.  What? Vice President?  VICE PRESIDENT?    CHEATY.

 I owe you an apology for deceiving you. I disguised myself to test hearts. To see how people behave when they believe there is nothing to gain, to find the kind ones in a world full of noise. I didn’t expect you. I’m sorry I met you like that. But I’m grateful I met you at all. Kaima Maduka, will you marry me?  Yes, Chidi.

 I love every version of you, but do not lie to me again.    Dream Chasing Group exists for one purpose, to find kind people in the crowd and help them achieve their dreams. Your kindness,  it proves that good people still exist. The real bride price was never money. It was character.  Chairman.  Chairman.  Emeka, you came here today with force in your heart.

 Chairman or not,  I can, Emeka. You tried to grab a bride like property. You, you raised a son to believe money excuses lawlessness.  What is this? Police? Why police?  Emeka Madella, you are under arrest.  WHAT NONSENSE IS THIS? ARREST FOR WHAT?  FOR fraud and money laundering.  Are you mad? DO YOU KNOW WHO MY SON IS?  YES.

That is why  we are here.  No! No, THIS IS A SET UP!  FREEZE! them everything. Every document. Every trail. Every account movement.  They found the accounts. They have everything. Don’t touch me. Do you KNOW WHO I AM?  WE KNOW. WALK.  CHIDI, CHAIRMAN, PLEASE. This is a misunderstanding.  Block Chief Okafor’s business dealings.

Drive them out of the industry. Assist the financial crime unit with all evidence. They praised me when they believed I had money. Now nobody will even look at me.  My son-in-law. Ah, I knew you were the right one for my daughter. I knew it.  Yes, brother-in-law. Please don’t mind how everything happened. Family is family.

 You don’t owe me anything. And I don’t owe you anything. If you want to speak, speak to your daughter. She is my wife.  Mommy, I will still support you.  Hey, my daughter.  But listen to me. Never be wicked again. You judged a man by appearances. You called him less than human because you thought he was poor.

You were ready to throw away my happiness just so people wouldn’t gossip.  It was for your good.  No. It was for your pride. Even if someone is poor, it doesn’t make them less human. It doesn’t mean they are not deserving of love. Wealth follows character. It can’t be forced. It can’t be grabbed.    It can’t be stolen.

You can’t insult your way into blessings.  We’ll continue the wedding preparations.  I laughed at him when I thought he had nothing. I left him when I should have stood by him.    [singing]   I tested the world and the world failed in many ways. You didn’t. You loved me when you thought I was nothing, even when others mocked you.

So now, with everything I have, I give it to you freely. I vow to love and cherish  you.  I vow to be your faithful partner. Some doors don’t reopen.     People who chase money often miss it because money cannot recognize a wicked heart.    Kindness is the true wealth.  Do you think I made the right choice by loving Chetti when everyone believed he had nothing.
