A Successful Woman (2025) Movie Script

Oh my God.
Hey, darling!
Youre late.
It's okay, I'm about
forgiving anything today.
You look amazing already.
- Thank you.
I cant believe this
is really happening.
It is.
Its happening.
And I believe that you
are going to be next.
Please, weddings
are not for everybody.
You keep saying that. -
Hold on Charles
What are you doing here?
You're not supposed
to see the bride,
on the morning of the wedding.
Please, step out of my way.
Babe, is everything okay?
I thought we agreed to go
for something less expensive.
Please give me a minute.
Babe.
Erm..
Its my wedding,
and I should look my best, babe.
Dont you mean its your money,
so you ought to make all the decisions.
But that's not true.
You and I have planned
this wedding together.
And weve made every single decision.
Why are you saying that? - Hmm.
Like how you decided to pay
the event planner her balance
without telling me.
No, no. That's not true.
She was threatening to back out.
I tried to call you, I couldn't reach you.
You know what?
I'm out of here.
I cant do this.
You cant do what? -
There'll be no wedding.
Baby!
Babe!
Somebody should close her eyes.
My eyes are close.
You can open them now.
I made this for you.
Oh my God! Baby!
You can make this? - Yes, just now.
Wow, this is so cute.
Im glad you like it.
Oh, God.
Hmm.
This is really nice.
Oh it taste good?
Yeah, it does.
It has coconut in it.

this car for her birthday.
This car? - Yes.
Wait let me call her.
Shes inside.

I think you should try this out
for some of your customers.
They are going to really like it.
This might make you a lot of money.
Sure I will.
It's a new recipe I came up with.
Oh, wow.
This is so cool.
You are so romantic, babe.
Yeah, come in.
Madam. - Yeah?
There is a man outside,

The car is very fine.
Are you serious? - Yes.
Its outside. - Oh my God!
That is Mr. Akintoye.
Okay, fine. Im coming. - Okay.
Im coming.
Babe, so you know Akintoye, right?
Yeah.
He promised he was going to get me a car,
as a birthday gift,
in gratitude for what I did for
him concerning the contract.
I had no idea he was serious about it.
Oh, God, this people.
You know what, Ill be right

Yeah. Oh Lord.
Oh, baby.
I love your cake.
Just look after it, Ill be right back.

Sit, let me tell you something.
This cake..
Whats going on?
I have a special treat for you.
Okay.
After today,
this weekend,

Thank you.
Thats like one of the most expensive Hotel
in the world, babe.
Are you serious? - Yes, darling.
Oh my God.
You deserve the best sweetheart.
I love you. - I love you more.
Are you actually serious? - Yes.
Hi.
I'm definitely going with you girls.
Oh, stop it. Forget it.
Im going.
Okay, okay.
I love you.
Youre the best thing
that can happen to anyone.
I mean, in my next life,
I want to be friends with you.
I know. -
What's up with Mr. Sam? He looks angry.
Yeah, I thought I was
the only one that noticed.
I don't think so. He's cool. Hes good.
Really?
Mm-hm.
My age..
Dear Lord.
What is it?
Oh my God!
No, no, no, no.
Just sit down, please.
Sit down.
This is bad.
This is really bad.
Why will he do a thing like this?
Esther.
If you ask me, I would say..
Kingsley does not
deserve your tears are all.
How could he break up
with me on my birthday?
Am I that bad?
No.
What did I do?
I agree with you.
What he did was outrightly wrong.
Very wrong.
Well at least he was
honest with his feelings.
Yes.
Let me even read that again
Esther,
I dont belong to your world.
I'm sorry it had to be today.
How can someone be so heartless?
How?
Well at least he wasnt like Jude
who actually turned my sister into an
Automated Teller Machine,
before admitting she was too
sophisticated for him to handle.
I actually thought we had something real.
Come on, Esther.
You and that guy look
like Madam and gigolo.
Not like it was your fault.
You tried to make him sophisticated,
but he had no self esteem.
Big sister, I think April is right.
Kingsley to me seemed
intimidated by your affluence.
He is not your man.
Im so sorry.
What are we?
In the movies?
Please let me be your Romeo.
Nnamdi, its just sex.
That I cant buy flowers
for the woman I sleep with?
Thank you.
Anything else?
Yes, I have this conference
in Abuja this weekend.
You know who to take.
She went to visit her mother.
Then arrange for an escort,
if you cant spend the weekend alone.

You are late.

This is the third time

You know its hard to
get a taxi to my area,
and they charge double of the amount.
Okay, I owe you
a fraction of my salary.
I'm sorry. Okay?
See these couple over there? - Yes.
They have paid. - Okay.
Every other person is owing.
Got it.
Thank you.
See you tomorrow. - Thank you.
Alright, take care of yourself.
Please you have to go.
We are closing.
You cant make me leave this place.
Another drunk customer.
Hey, hey, hey.
I do not have time for damsel in distress.
Just pay me, and go home
so I can go home and rest.
What is it?
I don't have a man, I can't find a man.
Okay, but
can you at least find your way
home after you have paid me
So that I can go home. I need to rest.
What is this?
Soledad
If you keep me for the lonely
Since the day that you were gone
Why did you leave me
Soledad
Finally.
Who are you?
You don't remember?
Wow!
The bar guy.
Yeah.
Where are my clothes? How do..
How did I get into this?
I hope you didn't do anything stupid.
Oh, well, like messing
everywhere up with vomit?
No, I didn't.
You helped me into this?
Well, no.
When we go to that party,
you suddenly sobered up
and you fixed yourself up.
So you did all of that by yourself.
So is anyone coming to pick you up?
Well, I dont have my phone with me, just..
Please call a cab.
Well, I don't have any
cabs number on my phone.
But I can drop you off if you want.
Where are my clothes?
Oh, I washed them this morning.
I can just tie it up in a
polytene bag for you.
What am I suppose to wear home? This?
Well, I don't think you have
many choices right now.
And you can keep the clothes, afterwards.
I'll wait for you outside.
What is going on here?
Get in, let's go.
Get in where?
I thought you were dropping me.
This is a bicycle.
Can you get on it lets go?
There's no
way I'm sitting on that thing.
Oh, fine.
Hey!
How am I suppose to even sit on it?
Here, just sit here,
and let's go.
Youre wasting my time.
How do I sit?
You can choose to sit like this,
or like this, or like this.
Can you just get on this lets move?
Man, you are rude.
Hold this.
I'm not comfortable.
Are you going to be complaining,
or you're going to sit and
let's get out of this place?
Am I suppose to hold you or something?
Hold me? No. Just sit and..
Just take me to where I get a cab, please.
Just take me to where
Ill get a cab, please.
Oh my God!
Oh my God!

Patricia.
Why is your face looking like that?
Where did Boss and her mum go to?
Anita.
What is my name?
Question.
I dont understand. What does that mean?
Are you having issues with your brain?
Your name is Patricia.
Why are you asking me?
Thank you.
What is so difficult in this name
that madam and her mother
wants to do my baptism by force.
Eh?
Madam calls me Pat.
That isnt what is getting me angry,
but her mom who calls me, Tricia.
Is Tricia my name?
Is that why youre angry?
You were even asking me..
If you dont like the name,
tell them you dont like the name.
One calls you Pat,
the other calls you Tricia.
If you put them together, its Patricia.
So why are you angry? Thats a pet name.
Ehen..
So I should call you,
Ta.
Or,
Ani.
Hold it right there, dont even try it.
Dont just try it.
Dont call me that name or anything.
My name is Anita.
Your name is Patricia.
They both call you differently.
Whatever name they call
you doesnt concern me.
Just call my name as it is.
Anita.
So its me who is suppose
to answer pet name.
Right?
Pet is a dog.
I'm not a dog.
You take it like that, whats my concern?
How does that concern me?
Ehn?
Theyre calling you what you..
Just tell them its not your name.
Why were you calling me a different name?
Dont try that rubbish.
You should have told
me that you need my job.
So you want me to be
sent back to the village.
Right?
You are cracking me up.
This job you have isnt enough.
You are crazy, something is wrong with you.
Come on, get out of here.
Youre working at the back yard, right?
Go back there and do your work.
Leave my own.
- Is it your business?
- Ehen, let me tell you,
that Pati or whatever you call me,
isnt my name.
My name is Patricia.
PA-TRI-CIA.
If you call me Pati again,
then Ill go ahead to call you Ani.
The funny thing is that,
you cant pronounce it.
You said Patri..
Youre crazy. Was it me
who gave you the name?
Look at your head like Patri.
You know, King Solomon was right.
A little alcohol is good for the body.
Mm-hm. -
Check out that gentleman coming.
Hi.
Mum.
Yeah. Hello.
Do you mind sitting with us?
It will be a great pleasure,
sitting in front of two beautiful women.
Thank you.
I am Nonye. - Okay.
And this is my younger sister,
Mum. - Esther.
Be honest.
Do I look like a mum?
No, you look terrific.
Thank you.
My name is Ike.
Nice to meet you.
Ike.
This is what we call fate.
My late husband's name was Ike.
Wow.
You can imagine..
You marry someone with
the same surname, Ike.
You wouldn't even have
to change your surname
after the wedding.
So how are you?
I'm fine.
What can I say?

How are you? - Im good, how are you?
Oh Lord. Yes.
Mum.
I really don't think I need
a relationship right now.
In fact, what I need is a break.
And I need grandchildren.
Grandchildren.
Abraham is here. Your
mother needs grand kids
Mum, arent you a bit too young,
to be asking for grant children?
Stop the glitch, come on.
I don't mind.
Your sister is really
taking good care of you.
Look at you, looking super good.
Thank you Mum.
Any way sister,
Where did you sleep last night?
Ive been trying to reach you all day.
Ermm..
I stayed at Aprils.
Oh, okay.
Anyway, there is an unpleasant development.
Chairman of Ikops Company called and said
they are taking the contract off our desk.
What!
Well, apparently, someone
is offering them a better deal.
And trust me, you don't know who it is.
Hello Mr. Onuoha, Ill
cut through the chase.
I heard through Grapevine
that your decision
not to go ahead with our company,
is as a result of someone
else offering you 10% discount.
Yes, someone went behind us to do that.
Okay, fair enough.
So can we meet at your office?
All right. Bye.

time, thats all Im asking.
I'll definitely get back to you.
Please take the bag in,
get us something to drink.
Okay ma. -
Baby.
What is it?
You know, I'm just tired.
There's this charitable organization
we actually made a pledge to
for three million naira,
which we ought to have fulfilled.
It's just that,
I realized we've done so
much in so short a time.
I mean, we've built three different houses
for three different families.
And we're opening businesses
for half a dozen women
who are jobless.
I mean, everything is just
happening at the same time.
Mehn, I don't know.
Well, that's nice.
That means you're really doing something.
Babe, its just my own
little way of giving back.
Okay, and I really don't
want to disappoint them.
Okay.
How about I bail you out.
You bail me out. You're going to..
Give me the three million naira?
Mm-hm. Anything to keep my baby smiling.
Are you sure?
Yes.
Oh baby that's so sweet.
Anything for you. - I love you.
Thank you so much.
I'm going to give you the account details
You just transfer the money to them.
No problem.
- I'll tell them it's from me.
- No problem.
Thank you.
Babe.
Baby come on.
Babe, come on.. - What is it Abraham?
What do you want?
I want my fiance back. Did you see her?
Your fiance?
Yes.
Babe. - Abraham,
we had an appointment
yesterday, did we not?
Yes we did, but I sent you a text message.
A text message? - Yes babe.
The same text message that said
you had to represent your
sister in a business meeting.
Tell me Abraham. Just tell me.
Why couldn't she be at
that meeting herself, huh?
I guess it was because she had
a lover that was important to her.
Listen, babe.
You of all people know that my
sister has been doing so much
to run our company.
Hm?
Wait, hold up.
Did you say our company?
Its our company.
No boo.
I think you meant to say,
her company, which you run for her.
See babe, you know my sister is my family.
Wait.
Your sister is your family. - Yes.
And I am going to be your wife,
so what does that make me?
A hoodlum?
Come on, baby, dont
talk like that. Come on.
Why are you talking like that?
Why not?
What reaction were you expecting?
Abraham we had an
appointment the other day,
but you cancelled on me because
you had to accompany your sister
to wherever she wanted to go to.
But babe, you know my sister is my boss.
There it is.
Now you're talking.
Now you're making sense.
So you agree she's your boss, right?
Yes, she's my boss.
Uhun.
And you know she can wake up one morning,
and decide to kick you
out of the company. No?
See babe.
That's not even possible.
Just stop talking about.
Or maybe she will just marry one man,
and give him the company.
Leaving us with nothing.
Zero.
Come on babe,
my sister can not just
wake up and fire me like that.
You just have to stop talking like that.
Abraham.
Yes babe.
I am not going to do this with you.
I am standing on the streets,
shouting like a madwoman.
You will not make me
crazy. Do you understand?
Leave me alone.
Dont drive me crazy. - Babe.
Abraham, Ill punch you.
I would literally punch you.
Here you are.
I hope you're not trying to propose to me
because Ill so dump your
sorry ass that your head will spin.
It's just a gift.
A gift for?
Why are you so cynical?
Men dont fall in love with women like us.
They can marry us for money,
but definitely not for a love.
We are..
We are just too much for them.
They prefer the wimpy
dummy they can control.
You know what you just did?
You profiled an entire gender.
And there are men who like assertive women.
Can I ask you a question?
Could you have married your
wife if she was richer than you?
It's only natural that husbands
should be richer than their wives.
It was not natural for
people to fly across the ocean
before the Wright
brothers invented a plane.
It was not natural...
for people to talk to
their loved ones far away
before cell phone came along.
But when women make money more than men,
it's not natural.
I like your fire.
He likes my fire.
Men like firing women like us only for sex.
They don't take us as wives.
I know my place and I'm comfortable in it.
Lock my door on your way out.
Ill drop this, all the same.
See you around.

What's the problem?
I don't know.
I think my tires are shaking.
Oh.
Okay, what do we do now?
Im coming,
let me check something.
I think I
have to call the mechanic.
Okay.
Hello. Hi. Good afternoon,
How is work?
Oh.
Okay. I think.. I don't
understand this car.
I think my tires are shaking.
Okay, okay.
I'll come to the workshop right away.
All right, thank you.
He said he is at the
workshop, so lets just get there.
Okay, just drive carefully.
I will.
What!
Wait a minute.
Is that not Ike?
Ike?
That's Iyke, my mechanic.
Your mechanic!
Yes.
That is Ike.
Ike!
Esther.
What are you doing here?
What are you doing here,
dressed in that rag?
This is my shop.
I thought you said you were an engineer?
Yes, Im a mechanic, engineer.
They are all the same thing.
And it was so convenient
for you to leave out that part?
That part of your source of livelihood.
Babe see,
This is my workshop.
This workshop youre
looking at belongs to me.
If we marry,
you will bring money so we
use it to expend this place.
This place will be big.
Hold on babe.
Is Iyke my mechanic the
the Ike you're talking about?
Yes.
You are shameless.
How can you do that to my friend?
Are you crazy?
Please keep quiet.
Dont go an get married,
soon you will be in menopause.
Please go and get married.
What is wrong with you?
Why would you talk to her like that?
Babe see,
when you bring money,
we will expand this place.
This place will be big.
Try and understand.
April, please lets go.
Babe, consider.
Let me tell you now, men are very scares.
Consider.
What is this?
My friend get up from there
Oh, leave me alone.
I want to be in bed all day.
Because of Ike the mechanic?
You should be ashamed of yourself.
Why is it so hard to find true love?
I mean,
I just want love.
That's all I want.
Maybe you should stop searching.
Marriage will make me very happy.
Wait.
What if I disguise as a poor girl?
Maybe I'll find a rich prince
who would fall in love with me.
And then eventually,
he will find out that I'm rich,
and then he would be angry
and upset that I lied to him.
But,
eventually he would forgive me because,
he's already in love with me.
And then, we will live happily ever after.
Fast forward to part two.
You both are now married
and the prince starts hitting
you because he cannot condole
your decisive attitude.
Out of low self-esteem,
he kills you, and then he commits suicide.
What kind of a story is that?
I'm sure you didn't think of that part.
Come on, sweetheart.
What you need is a rebound sex.
Hell no.
Yes.
Come on, just go out there,
look for a man of your choice,
sleep with him without
expecting a ring on your finger.
Its that simple.
There is no way of taking
any advice from you.
Not any relationship advice.
That's weird because I
don't have any to give.
Now stand up from that bed.
Now, one, two, stand up.
Stand up.
Stand up.
I'll bring water oh.
Please now, please sugar, just stand up.
Madam.
Its our closing time.
Sit down.
What is your name?
My name is Ebuka.
Hmm.
Ebuka.
I'm Esther.
Nice to meet you.
Uhm..
Thank you so much for the other day.
I didn't get to..
Appreciate you.
Oh.
It's nothing.
So would that be all?
Actually, I've been..
Dealing with a lot of heartbreaks
lately in my relationship, and,
my darling friend advised me to..
Have rebound sex
to help me get a better
grip of my emotions.
Hmm.
Good for you.
So why are you telling me all this?
Do you want to try it out?
Thank you.
Hmm.
Mum. - Esther.
Where did you sleep last night?
Oh, dear Lord! Mum.
I'm so sorry I slept at Aprils.
I'm so sorry I didn't call.
It's okay.
I will be inviting someone
over for lunch this Sunday.
And I want you present.
Who?
Someone you used to know.
I ran into him at the shopping mall.
Does this someone have a name?
Its a surprise.
Good morning, mum.
Oh, good morning son.
Hope you slept well.
Yeah I did.
Sister, youre not dressed for work?
Anyway chairman of Greenwish media called,
he said hes on his way to the office.
Already. Oh my God! I forgot.
Erm..
You might need to
just fill in for me. Okay?
Well, I have a meeting
with Samson this morning.
Well, you can do that later in the day.
And while you do what?
What will you be doing then?
Anyway, I have a lunch date with Maria.
A lunch date with Maria.
Is it more important than the company
youre growing with your sister?
Hum.. Mum, it's fine. Ill sort myself out.
Its fine.
Ill just quickly go get ready.
Okay.
You have to tell me everything.
Girl.
You are crazy.
You're actually very crazy.
I know that.
So tell me, how did it go?
Well, it went well.
What did I just hear?
Okay.
There was no pressure.
No expectation.
No one was trying to please each other.
I mean, it was just total freedom and fun.
I told you.
Were attached so much to sex.
Sex is actually a big deal.
Okay, sorry ma.
I won't say anything again.
Okay.
So, does this Oliver want some more?
Hell no.
Even if he does, I don't
want to see him again.
I mean, after everything, I
was just so embarrassed.
Why?
Because you're the one that asked for it?
Come on girl.
Women should express themselves more
on sexual matters.
I mean, life is free.
Not everyone is like you.
Okay.
You love me like that.
I want more of this gist.
Hey, like what are you doing?
Nothing.
Babe whats with the attitude?
I mean, I cancelled my appointment,
just to be with you here.
A cheerful countenance will
actually add beauty to my day.
Whats all this?
You cancelled your appointment.
You should have gone for your appointment
instead of being here.
Before people say,
Maria is trying to get
him in trouble with his job.
Please, please.
Anyway, what about your friend?
Is she still interested in selling her car?
Yes.
And how much have you come up with?
Nothing.
Nothing?
I thought you said you were
saving up money to buy the car.
I had to use it for something else.
Really?
Anyway, I would
I would ask my account officer
to send you two million naira.
Are you
serious babe, two million naira.
Wait.
Ahan.
Two million naira?
Yes, two million naira.
Babe.
The car is 3.5 million naira.
Where am I suppose to get the rest from?
I know its 3.5 million naira.
You will get the rest next month. Just..
Just manage two million for now.
And later they will say
you are the Boss brother.
What did you just say?
No Babe, I'm so happy.
I'm speechless. I dont..
Thank you so much.
Thank you.
At least, just cheer up.
Okay? - Im very happy.
Anyways, I have to go now.
Alright. Just take care of yourself.
And be careful.
Oh, yeah.
Anita. - Ma?
Please, go call Esther for me.
Okay ma.
So you remember, right?
Why shouldn't I?
She made it look as if the
world would come to an end
if she miss the competition.
And I wasn't expected to see her,
so you could imagine my shock,
when I saw her stepping
out of her father's car.
Mm-hm.
And Mr Ken made me swear
by keeping an eye on her.
See, we're not the same age.
So tell me, where is Mr. Ken now?
He passed on, seven years ago.
Oh my God.
I'm so sorry, I didnt know.
Thank you Johnny.
It's okay. Life goes on.
Johnny! Is that you?
My star. - Oh my God!
Are you serious? - Look at you.
Mum, where did you find him?
You know, we moved to Kaduna
after our secondary school.
Yeah. You got admission
into the University of Jos.
Yeah, you remember.
Of course I remember.
You know, after my university graduation,
I later got employed
by a big law firm in Jos.
Just last year, I decided
to relocate back here
to startup my own.
Thats so nice
That's so cool.
Thank you.
So are you married?
No, I'm not.
And how about you, are you married?
Still single.
Still single.
Ooh...
And your mum told me you
now run your own business.
A big company.
Hmm Mum. Well technically, yes.
I didn't have the patience
to be a salary earner.
So I just had to
build my own little world, and
make something for myself.
Nice, I like that. -
You know, I wish I had
the same thought earlier,
but I'm trying to build
something that is mine.
It's never too late. -
Johnny so how are your parents doing?
Do they still live in the North?
No.
My mom and my kids
sister moved to the village,
after I lost my father.
- So unfortunate.
I'm so sorry about that.
My dad passed too.
Your mom told me.
Oh, she did.
Life continues.
You know Im still struggling to
find my way around this place.
She will show you around.
She spent 12 years in this town,
so hang on to her.
It's okay. Ill show you around.
So tell me, how have you been?
Ive been good.
Doing great
You look so extra carefully created.
Oh, stop it. Thank you.
What would you like to drink?
You know, you're not leaving today, anyway.
No.
You eat and drink.
Get drunk on my account.
My tummy
Okay hum..
Where is this girl?
Thank you so much for coming.
I'm so sorry we kept you this long.
I mean, we've not had
a visitor in a long while.
Are you kidding me?
No.
I mean, I could spend
the night, if you ask nicely.
My star.
Oh, stop calling me that.
But you liked it then.
Well..
You know youre beautiful.
I mean, you've always
been a beautiful girl.
But you turn out a queen.
Come here.
Have a nice evening, Esther.
You too.
You take care.
Oh, Jesus!
Mum.
Yes? - You startled me.
Besides, I thought you were in your room.
Oh, I went to my room just
to give you two some privacy.
Privacy?
Hmm.
What are you imagining now?
Tell me you are not
imagining the same thing too.
Stop looking at me like that.
- I like him. I still do.
It's just..
Mum Im scared.
I don't want to get my heart broken.
Listen to me, my dear.
Hearts are meant to be broken.
Don't be scared of going on dates
because you dont want
your heart to be broken.
We won't give up,
until we find your Mr. Right.
Hmm.
I just hope after a Johnny,
I don't have to go out there
looking for anything anymore.
I hope so too.
Mum, you and I are so shameless.
I mean, this guy hasn't even asked us out,
and here we are planning a wedding.
Didnt you see how his
eyes were glued on you
through out today?
I saw that. -
I'm sure soon, he will join in the plan.
He gave me a peck.
Oh he did. Wow!
But it might just be a friendly peck.
Sure, friendly peck.
Okay. -
I love you.
I love you too my baby.
You go to your room, we shall see later.
Hmm. Okay.
Okay.
Are you okay? - Yeah, Im fine.
You are shameless
Me?
Yes, you.
Okay.
I don't understand this.
How is it that you're in love?
You just met this girl today.
Wait.
You mean you've not
been paying attention to me?
I said this girl and I, we
grew together in Enugu,
and we were like best of friends.
And I also heard you say,
that you've not spoken to
this girl for like, ten years.
So?
I mean,
can that stop anything
like us falling in love?
Tell me.
You know what?
Let us drop this topic, okay?
You're old enough to
interpret your own emotion,
and you said you fine.
Blood so, all the best. - Good.
And your landlord.
What was the conclusion with him?
Oh, that man.
Yes
He still wants to sell off the building.
So he insist I vacate from the building.
What is wrong with that man?
But youre a lawyer bro,
you can make him rescind.
You say?
Yes.
Well, I'm not sure I'm ready
to make an enemy of man
as powerful as Chief Adeshina.
So I already have an agent
looking out for a place for me.
All I want is a place as big
enough for me and my team.
Hmm.
Well its fine. Just let me
know when I can assist.
For real?
Im your guy. Come on.
Thanks bro.
All the best, to your new love.
- New love.
Yes, new love.
Wow.
This place looks quite the class.
It's actually one of
my favorite restaurants.
Really? - Yeah.
Wow.
I like this place.
You should taste their
food, you will love it.
I can't wait.
Yeah.
Welcome sir, welcome ma.
Thank you.
Please this is the menu.
So tell me,
what do you care for?
Well, my usual, seafood
platter with calamari, of course.
Okay.
What!
Is there a problem?
No. I mean,
the menu looks quite interesting.
Yeah, it is.
They have lots of variety.
That will be all for now. Okay?
I don't want to take anything.
Oh no, babe you should taste it.
No, I just want to watch you eat.
Okay?
You sure about that?
Yeah, I'm sure about that.
You can go with this.
Anyway,
the platter would be enough for both of us.
Its actually very, very large.
Okay.
Yeah, but we might need
to order for extra calamari.
Extra? - Yes.
And then the bottle of wine, of course.
Perfect for the evening.
But I'm not sure we need extra.
Come on, I mean..
I don't really want to.. I
don't have much time. So,
Yes.
Ebuka.
Those guys are criminals.
Can you imagine a bottle of water for 700?
Even if it was the water
Jesus turned to wine,
that was way too expensive.
But dude, its your fault.
After you entered and see the menu,
you call the babe and ask her to calm down.
Lets talk about this.
This place is above my budget.
As simple as that.
You cut your coat
according to your clothes.
Instead of trying to kill yourself.
Hold on.
Do you expect me to embarrass myself
right in front of a girl
Im trying to impress?
Do you need to kill yourself
over impressing a girl?
What kind of impression is that?
Listen, let me tell you.
This babe is my investment.
Once I marry this girl,
all my problems are gone.
Im telling you.
I thought you said you love this girl.
Of course.
So does love stop me
from collecting her money?
Well, I think you know
what you're doing, right?
Sure, I know my game.
Eh..
So whats up? -To be a woman
To be a woman
Independent woman
Na something good, na something good
She's working for the family.
Shes praying for the family.
This is so tasty.
April.
Yes mum.
When will you introduce your man to us?
When men starts growing balls.
Spinster-wood is fun for now.
Wait until youre 45 and alone.
Esther would have had her family,
and focused on them by then.
You will be full of regrets.
Make hay while the sun shine.
Mum.
I will only regret giving
my heart to a man,
to some nitwit who would tell me..
How to be fat,
when I'm slim, when I'm
beautiful, and when I'm not.
I mean marriage is a scam.
Hmm
Not when you meet the right person.
Exactly.
Because as for me,
I have met the right person.
You've met the right person?
Yes, baby.
Do you accept to marry me?
Ill practically take you home
to meet my mum this weekend,
as the woman Im spending
the rest of my life with.
Congratulations.
Yeah, congratulations guys, but
not this weekend.
Why?
Lets remember that Mr. Tony
Invited you to his sons
birthday this weekend.
And you cannot afford to miss it.
Oh, that can wait. You
can represent me there.
Well, I already have plans for the weekend.
Plans?
Is it like an official plan
or a personal private plan?
It doesnt have to be work, my time.
Abraham.
Mum.
So you mean she can go out with her lover,
while I get stock with work on weekend?
Please, mum.
Abraham.
Uh..
I'm sorry.
Im sure he didnt mean any of those words.
I will go speak with him, sorry.
Im so sorry.
Baby its fine, we can just make it Sunday.
Its okay.
Babe.
Are you okay?
Babe.
I am so proud of you.
Oh my goodness.
What you did in there
just proves to me that,
I am marrying someone
that can stand up for himself.
And that makes me so turned on.
Really?
Yes.
I love you.
I love you too, baby.
So, tell me.
Do you want to get out of here
and finish the party at my place?
That sounds interesting. - Mm-hm.
I will go get my car key then.
Okay.
Ill be right back. - Okay.
My phone and my purse. - Alright.
I want you to know that I
do not take you for granted.
And I appreciate all the efforts
you put in, towards the company.
Most especially,
the emotional support
you give me as my brother.
However,
I don't appreciate your recent aggression.
If you and I start working
under a toxic environment,
how then are we suppose
to be productive, positively?
Weve always lived in peace.
And I hope that it will remain that way.
Henceforth, I will carry
out my duties, at the office.
Even though as the M.D.
it is your responsibility
to sometimes help me out.
But I will do it just so we are cool.
So are we cool?
We are cool, sis.
Is that all?
Yes.
Well, good night then.
For the family
Shes praying for the family
Everything she does,
she does for you and I
The least you should give is to say
Thank you
Sir, what exactly would you like to drink?
Wine or Spirit.
Well, I..
I'm not sure I need anything.
I'll call you if I need anything. Okay?
Okay, sir.
So brother,
what's up? So you were saying?
This girl is dangerously extravagant.
You would have used your entire savings
to pay for a single shopping.
Just thank your God your
card expired yesterday.
And I didn't know.
Thank
God for the bank people.
But my brother,
why don't you come clean with this girl?
I mean, if she doesn't
accept you for who you are,
that means you both are not meant to be.
Ebuka.
What are you even saying?
I mean, do you think a girl of her class,
will accept to date a
middle broke lawyer like me?
Come on bro, listen.
I'll keep to my game till
after our wedding night.
My brother, you are judging
this girl without knowing her.
Give her a benefit of a doubt.
Its not fair what you're doing.
Shes the one calling.
Hello, baby.
How you doing?
My cousin and I are still expecting you.
Are you okay?
Have you taken any drugs?
It's okay.
Don't worry.
He will understand.
Okay.
Alright, I'll call you later, babe.
She's not coming.
She's down with cramps.
Women business.
I guess I'll get to see
her some other time.
Sure.
Let me get you something to drink.
She didn't get you.
I'm not sure Im ready
to drink anything, serious.
I'm not still out on
this shock. Believe me.
I mean..
That was way too expensive.
That's why you should drink.
Really? - Yes.
Of all the seven billion
people in this world,
it had to be the guy I
had a one night stand with.
How are you sure hes the one?
He is the one.
He's the only one who works at that bar,
as a bartender.
Well, it could be another
bar with the same name.
And same address.
God!
I mean, who have literally offended?
Who is so angry with me?
Who doesn't want my happiness?
What have I done?
I mean, it doesn't even matter.
You slept with his cousin
before you met him.
So if he does not forgive you,
then hes not worth it.
It matters.
I literally begged the
guy to have sex with me.
Do you know what he would think?
That his cousin is marrying a slut.
Well, what he feels or
thinks does not matter.
It matters to me.
Because I love Johnny,
and I don't want to lose him.
You know, I shouldn't have listened to you.
Now, look at me.
Look at the freaky mess am in.
Okay, now Im the bad one. Please..
Let me go have something to eat or drink.
What do I do?
Esther.
Where are your car keys?
Mum.
I mean, look for it.
Check the drawer,
the room,
just check anywhere.
Ask the maids
Leave me alone.
Why are you looking like a widow?
Dont tell me something had happened
between you and Johnny.
It's too early.
Mum.
We're fine.
You just want to sit here gloomily.
Yes.
Come in.
Anita.
Ma!
Open the door.
How are you doing?
Hi baby - Hi.
How are you doing today?
Oh. -
I'm fine.
Really? - Yes.
Meet my cousin Ebuka.
Ebuka meet the woman of my dreams.
Hi.
Yes.
My cousin..
My cousin couldn't stop talking about you.
I can see why.
You are beautiful.
Yeah, she is, right?
Yes.
Baby, I need to ease myself first.
This guy right here, has been
loading this stomach with drinks.
Don't even start that.
You were the one that said
you need to enjoy yourself.
Hmm.
I need to ease myself.
All right. Okay.
Please, you see what
happened the last time,
it was my very first time.
I had never done it before. Its..
It's because I was dealing
with emotional issues.
Look, please.
Is that so?
Yes. Please don't tell him.
I love your cousin.
Uh..
It's okay.
I'm not the chatterbox type.
Yes.
Are you okay?
Yeah, I'm all right, baby.
Whats up? - Im fine.
Nice guy.
She's beautiful, right?
Very beautiful.
She's everything you said, and more.
Hmm. - Mm-hmm.
What would you like to drink?
Oh, no, no, no. We're fine.
I mean, we've been drinking since morning.
Actually water will be fine.
Okay.
Water.
Anita.
Baby?
Yeah.
I was about taking mama to the hospital.
Good afternoon, ma.
I'm so sorry, the traffic was too much.
Mama, can't you recognize Esther?
Mrs. Ikes daughter.
The one I used to call my star
back then in Enugu.
Oh, oh, oh. Esther.
Ma.
You're so grown.
- Good afternoon, ma.
- Afternoon, my daughter.
How are you?
Fine ma.
How is your mum?
Shes fine ma.
And your dad, the good man.
He passed.
Daddy passed.
Its a pity. Sorry.
Thank you ma.
Mama. - Yes?
She's the one I intend to get married to.
Oh, okay.
Youre welcome to my home, my daughter.
Thank you ma.
Mama, Esther is a big lady.
She has lot of companies.
As a matter of fact, this
is the least of her cars.
She's very rich mama.
She's a big lady.
Finish whatever it is
youre doing with her,
and come meet me in the car.
Do and come take me to the hospital.
You know my timing.
Baby.
It seems mama doesn't like me so much.
She does.
She has a heart disease,
and the doctor suggested
we fly her to India for surgery.
Oh my God!
That must be really hard.
How much is the surgery?
Roughly ten million naira.
That's a lot of money.
Yes baby, I know.
But I have to do whatever I
can to save my mother's life.
She's all I gat now.
She and my younger sister.
I know. I'm so sorry babe.
Its okay baby.
I need to rush now and
take Mama to the hospital.
I will talk to you later.
I will call you.
Come here.
Let me take mama to the hospital.
All right.
Bye, Mama.
Johnny.
Do whatever it is you
want to do with that girl.
When you want to marry,
you will come, Ill get
you a humble girl to marry.
Mama.
Mama, what are you saying?
Esther is a very humble lady, mama.
She is a nice person.
I know what I'm seeing.
She's not humble.
She will turn you into her slave.
Mama,
does it mean that I can't pay a
woman's bride price any more?
On the contrary,
when she pays your groom price,
you will become my servant.
Mama what are you saying?
Johnny!
Take me to the hospital.
Take me to the hospital!
No, you won't.
That woman does not like you.
Well, I'm not sure.
It's just a gut feeling.
This is a good time to back out.
Back out.
Babe.
I'm thinking maybe if I give
her, the money for her surgery.
After the surgery, her feelings
towards me might change.
Ten million naira is a huge sum of money.
Are you trying to buy her love?
No. Why would you even say that?
I mean, ten million is not..
Too much to spend on my..
Would be mother in law.
Okay.
I wont say otherwise.
Because I know its
difficult to dissuade you
when you make up your mind on something.
Okay, now that we're clear.
Can you please not tell my brother?
I know he will not approve.
I don't approve of this.
Nature does not approve of it.
In fact, nobody will approve such a thing.
Stop being dramatic.
Is it a yes or a no?
Ive heard. - Alright, thank you.
Ten million naira?
Yeah.
Dude, you are stone hearted.
Why are you sounding
as if I want to dupe her?
What exactly is this?
No. What is this?
Because my aunt is suffering
from typhoid. Thats all.
Come on bro, let me
explain this to you, okay?
I just want to use this
money to upgrade my lifestyle,
so I can fit into her world.
I won't let you do that to her.
And how do you intend to stop me?
You will tell her the truth?
I know you wont.
I know you wont.
Come off it, bro.
Ten million.
It's coming.
It's coming.
Why are you staring at me like that?
Ebuka.
I'm ready to leave.
All right, I'll take it
from here. Thank you.
All right.
Ebuka, why don't you get me another bottle?
We need to drink up man.
Ten million is coming.
Why am I even bothered?
I mean, its her life and her money.
Hey, babe.
You look gorgeous.
I guess someone fell down from the sky.
I made a little trip out of town.
I didn't ask you for details.
Guess you didn't miss me.
Thats if I actually
made out time for that.
Can we talk, in my car?
Nnamdi.
We don't talk.
We only have sex.
But if you're looking for who to talk to,
go home, and talk to your wife.
April.
April, please.
So, what is this about?
My wife and I just divorced.
I don't understand.
Hold on.
I hope its not because of me.
Because if it is, I have no interest,
whatsoever in filling that gap.
Not exactly.
Ever since I married my wife,
she's been experiencing
difficulty in conception.
I don't know what it was.
Only for her to tell me the truth,
three months ago.
She has no womb.
Seriously?
She said she had some kind of cancer.
Cancer of the uterus.
And the doctors had to cut off her womb.
And she kept it away from you?
For seven years.
Only for her to tell me..
Few months ago, along
with the decision to..
Quit the marriage.
I'm really sorry to hear that.
I was a good man, a good husband too
I provided everything she needed and more.
I was equally faithful until..
You came along.
Do you want to go grab
a drink or something?
Not really.
Much as I was not expecting
my marriage to hit the rocks,
I've come to realize that..
I'm falling in love with you.
Oh please, please.
I fell in love with you the
same month that we met.
Yes.
Your independence,
your fearlessness,
coupled with the fact that..
You are fun to be with.
Enough of these.
Hold on.
In as much as I sympathize with you
over what happened
between you and your wife,
but I cant marry a man out of pity.
I don't want that either.
All I'm asking is that
I get an opportunity
of a real date with you.
Maybe youll fall in love with me.
No Nnamdi.
This heart is not meant to fall in love.
I don't think I can go on with this.
Then its a goodbye.
I wish you good luck in everything you do.
Baby.
Babe.
You sounded so worried over the phone.
Are you okay?
I'm completely finished.
What happened?
Baby, talk to me.
Did someone die?
So apparently, I went to the office,
and I discovered that the
whole place was sealed up.
Okay..
The bank sealed up our company.
Why?
Is your company operating on bank loan?
No.
I just found out that my brother
took a loan from the bank,
and used the house and
the office as collateral.
Your brother?
Yes.
And you didn't know?
No.
But the bank has no
right to seize your property.
Look, baby.
All we got to do is to prove to the court
that you were not aware of the loan.
Hes a signatory to the account.
Everything I have, he's a signatory to it.
Baby, this is a big problem.
I don't know what to do.
My mum has locked herself in the room,
and she has refused to come out.
And my brother, his phone is switched off.
I dont even know. I can't even reach him.
You know what, baby?
Listen.
All hope is not lost.
All hope is lost.
They gave us 48 hours to leave this house.
Now, baby..
Baby please.
My mum says she's going
back to Enugu, tomorrow,
and I don't know if I can..
If I can stay with you for a while
until I'm able to sort myself out.
- Until am able to find my..
- Hey! Its okay.
It's okay. Its okay.
Look, baby, -
I'm with you every step of the way.
- Look.
You can stay with me as long as you want.
Okay?
I love you.
Thank you.
Come here.
Sorry. - I dont know what to do.
Its okay.
It's okay.
Esther you're wasting your time.
He is like every other man out there.
He's not like every other man out there.
And no, I'm not wasting my time.
I thought he's different.
Esther you will think
every man is different,
until they prove you otherwise.
You know what?
I am done with love.
I am done with anything
that has to do with love.
I'm going to live my life with
reckless abandon, henceforth.
That's my girl.
Now you're speaking my language.
Johnny is not here.
I can see that.
What can I get you to drink?
I assume he told you about our situation.
Yeah.
You know it's not true, right?
It's not.
My friend came up with the idea
to be sure whether Johnny
truly loves me. Because..
I was going to give him ten
million naira for his mothers surgery.
We just had to be safe.
Wait, wait.
Are you saying that
you're okay and there's nothing
wrong with you and your business?
Yes.
Well, I..
I don't know what to tell you.
It's okay. I'm..
I'm used to men like Johnny.
Can I still get you something to drink?
Water.
To be a woman
To be a woman
A successful woman
Is it a crime
To be a woman
To be a woman
Wait, wait, wait.
What?
I..
I think we have to take
things slowly this time.
Okay.
And this.. - Oh.
Esther, stop.
Now If you say so.
Oh God.
Can I at least hold you? - Sure.
A successful woman
Successful woman
Successful woman
I know my relationship with your cousin,
was very short lived.
But I want to thank you
for keeping our little secret.
Okay.
If we are going to do this,
I have few of my own rules.
Do what?
This.
But this is nothing.
Okay, if you say so.
All right, fine Im listening.
I..
I respect the fact that
you are a boss lady.
In fact, I admire it.
But in my world,
I like to be the boss.
I am the boss.
I like to be in charge of things.
But Im dont.. - Im not done.
I'm not interested in your money.
Infact, I don't need anything from you.
I like to take care of you with
what I have, and hopefully..
That should be enough.
So are we dating?
Except If you're not interested.
What about your cousin?
I can handle him.
Now eat up.
Esther youre love sick.
Youre down with love syndrome,
and you just can't be on your own.
You know what, April?
You're right.
Im not like you, I don't
know how you do it.
Let me ask you one question.
What if your mom finds
out you're dating a bar boy?
Well, thankfully, my mum's
never been someone who cares
about the financial
status of anyone Im with.
Okay.
And what if she also finds out
he's Johnnys cousin?
We can handle that.
Are you sure he's not after your money too?
Have you seen or heard Ebuka talk?
That guy has a healthy dose of pride.
That is one thing that I'm so crazy about.
Oh gosh!
Oh God, oh God, oh God.
You are so pathetic.
I give up.
Any other question? - Oh, please.
This is quite a lot to take.
I know.
You mean you've been in
love with her all these while?
I wasn't sure how I feel about her until..
Until we made love the second time.
Can't believe she played me.
And I fell for it.
No.
You both played each other.
I have to retire bro.
I have a trip to plan.
Are we good?
Were good bro.
See you around.
Alright, safe trip.
Good night.
My daughter said you work in a lounge.
Yes ma. I own the lounge.
You own the lounge?
You didn't know?
Well,
for some reason, Ebuka
found it very convenient
to avoid that part of
the description of his life.
I didn't avoid any part. It
just hasnt come up yet.
Really? - Yes.
Then how are you working there as a barman?
You own a company, you work there too.
It's not the same.
And I dont see how.
What dont you see?
You serve people like..
Hey sister.

Are you okay, darling?
What are we doing here?
Oh, we are here to get plantain and beans.
I mean, we can eat when
we get to where we are going.
No, this is where we are coming.
Is this the lunch?
Yes.
Come on, babe.
Variety they say, is the spice of life.
You just taste it. Youll like it.
You like it. Youll enjoy it.
So, madam, how are you?
Good afternoon sir. - How are you?
Good afternoon.
So, I need two plates.
Give me.. add fish.
Otazi, right?
Ugba and Kpomo.
That will be how much?
One thousand naira sir.
I thought its 800 naira. - No, no, no.
It's okay. Just do it.
Hey babe, theres something about..
Babe.
You know, I think you need to start
considering moving out of this house.
Because I mean, you do not expect us
to continue staying here after marriage.
I wont.
I don't have strength for family drama.
Well, babe, I actually
have a house of my own.
Yeah, my sister instructed the
company to build one for me.
And it was completed three months ago.
Oh my God!
You have a house. - Yeah, I do.
Oh my God.
Babe.
Why didnt you tell me?
Well, I was actually keeping it as a
pre-wedding present for my wife.
See, look Maria.
You have an unquenchable appetite
which makes you dangerous.
And it is your type that will drive
a man into committing murder.
Babe.
Where is this coming from?
From a place of truth, Maria.
Look, Maria.
If I marry you, I might end up
becoming envious of my sister.
And you know what envy does to a man.
It can actually drive you
to your own destruction.
So I thought about it while I was away
that I need a better woman
who can actually inspire me
to be good to myself,
to the society, and my family.
So I called you here to let you
know that it is over between us.
Abraham.
Are you mad?
No, no, no. Really Abraham, are you mad?
Abraham, you know what?
Go to hell.
Go to hell and burn.
I mean.. Look at this small boy.
No, no, no, wait.
Look at this small boy
that I am trying to manage.
Are you mad?
You should be happy that I even
accepted to marry your sorry ass.
Do you have any idea
how many men that are coming for my hand?
Do you know the caliber of
men that want to marry me?
Instead, I choose to
stay with your sorry ass
trying to make something out of nothing.
And youre here blabbing.
Talking about family.
When I'm trying to make
you an ambitious man,
You don't know what
you are doing to yourself.
You do know that I am the kind of woman
that make you a billionaire tomorrow.
Instead of you to beg
me to stay, you are here..
Are you mad?
You should be begging me to stay with you.
Are you stupid?
Good riddance,
Abraham.
Abraham, Im sorry.
Abraham I didnt mean it that way. Oh!
Abraham can we talk?
Why
are you returning them?
Babe, we dont need
this. Its not in our list.
I know, but it's not that
expensive, and I really like it.
Babe.
Babe. - What?
We have, almost all we
need for this shopping.
Its fine I will pay for it.
It's not about paying for it darling.
You don't need this.
Its not part of our list.
Were not taking it, okay?
This is my list.
Im paying for it. And its
not even about the money.
Its about want.
What you are doing
now, is impulsive buying.
Lets go darling.
Its okay, its okay.
Lets go.
Its fine, go.
He has never taken me to
a restaurant before, mum.
Never!
Girl,
youre just being silly.
You didn't even allow
him to defend himself.
It might be his business
associates or something.
I know what I saw.
I didn't tell you people how we met.
The first time we met,
he was busy buying female
clothes for God knows who.
He can't buy clothes for his sister?
Well, the lady I saw
him with wasn't his sister.
I mean, you don't touch your sister's hair
and kiss her in public. Do you?
I mean April was there, you can ask her.
She saw everything.
She will agree.
She's a feminist.
You are right mum. If that
makes you sleep at night.
Sis, just allow me
give this guy a blue eye.

You know, I shouldn't
have let you talk me into this.
You need to find closure.
At least find out who
hes cheating on you with.
I mean..
You know, youre right.
I was faithful to him as a girlfriend.
Now, you get my point.
All right, let's go.
Whats going on?
Miss Esther Ike
I have loved you for so long.
Please make me the happiest
man on earth and say yes to me.
Please.
Please say yes to my younger brother.
He adores you so much.
You knew?
Yes, I do.
I had to come here and, confront him,
because I was very mad. Very, very mad.
He explained everything to me,
Called his sister, and we spoke,
and they told me what they were planning.
Yes and went to deliver
the engagement ring to him.
The fast food belongs to my husband.
So they were discussing business.
Joy here,
she's my sister.
I'm so sorry. I didnt know.
You dont need to worry at all.
April explained everything
to me, and it's okay.
See,
I am real with you.
And I will never play with your emotions
or take you for granted.
Why are you staring? Can
you accept the love of your life?
You are wasting out time.
Sorry, get up.
Yes.
Yes I will marry you.
Thank you.
Congratulations. - Thank you.
Its selfie time.
She said yes.
- Yeah.
Okay, video. - Video.
Hey. - Hi.
Thank you for coming.
You look gorgeous, as usual.
Thank you.
Oh
You decided to wear this.
Yes.
So..
You ask to see me.
Yes, please sit.
When I was 19 years old,
I met this guy.
And we dated for seven years.
I gave him everything.
My time,
my money,
my heart,
my body,
my friendship with people.
I practically lived to make him happy.
I saw him through medical school,
while I was training myself in school.
And he dumped you?
For a rich girl.
He said he needed financial
stability for his unborn children.
And I couldn't give him that.
I was devastated.
I fell into depression.
I suffered.
But months after,
I got up.
And when I did,
I promised myself I would
be a successful woman.
And I would treat men with the disdain
they deserve.
Erm..
I'm not anything like him.
I know.
I also know you're not after my money
because you can afford me twice.
So why don't you give me a chance?
I promise to respect you.
I promise to treat you
like a woman that you are.
Okay.
Really?
Yes.
I want to give my heart
a chance to love again.
And I promise I'm going
to love you till my old age.
Old age?
I accepted to date you
and not to marry you.
So dont even go there
Okay then. -
Come here.
Youre so beautiful
