“I don’t know why you’re laughing but I do know that you should really take your life more seriously, Richardson,” she called his name on her mouth and it sounded weird saying it like that.She was not used to calling out his name. She wondered if he felt the same about her. Maybe he didn’t.“Look, it was an accident but gladly no one got hurt. The driver was getting a blow job and he hit me. We worked out our differences and I fixed my car.”“And what about the other driver? Where is he now?”“Oh he’s in prison,” he answered with a cool smile which scared her. “Prison?” she asked. “I thought you said you both worked out your differences.”“Yes we did, but it turns out the car he bashed me with was not his own but a stolen vehicle. Also, he had been violent towards me in our first altercation so there is that. “If he had apologized, maybe I would not have looked into his case and found out about his history. “But he had been violent and that had hurt my ego so I had filed a case wi

Everything would be destroyed because of this little spat.He could imagine what his grandfather would feel when he would tell him of what had happened. This was going to be a full blown disaster. He had been told to keep his identity on a low scale but here he was blowing it out of proportion by being involved with Jennie. Who knew it would get to this point where they would not be seeing eye to eye. Why was she behaving like this? He could not see her leverage here. He did not know what she was willing to get out of this. There was only one thing to do and he was willing to do it. He was going to pay her off to keep her quiet. That was the best he could do. He would listen to whatever terms she had to say to keep her quiet. But if she were to destroy his life by uttering a word to anyone about him, then he would have no choice but to take up drastic measures against her.“What do you want?” he sighed, staring at her with hatred.“Now we’re talking,” she said with a chirpy tone a

Jennie was now in a bind. Of course she had not seen it getting to this point but it had gotten there and now she had no choice but to go with whatever was being said to her. She was not going to be let off the hook as the men could see right through her plans. They knew what she was capable of doing and they were also ready to take drastic actions against her. “I hear you’ve got terms of your own,” Tom stated. “I have a recorder here, you can state whatever you want and we’ll have it recorded and it will be provided for you. No questions asked.”This was a very tricky situation. She didn't even know what his own terms would be like but she was sure she did not want to be held up by a term she could not adhere to.“Do we really need to go through this route?” she chuckled. “I know I brought up the part about going to the lawyer and all but I was joking. We don’t need to be all serious about it.”“Having a baby is a serious matter, Ma’am,” Tom said in a serious tone. “You don’t have

Jennie was living her best life and she was unapologetic about it. While she slurped her drink, she was happy about how her life was going. Handing him the book, he opened it to find out she had signed it without going through the terms.“You didn’t read through?” he asked in shock after going through the book.“I read a few but then some of the words started to make me feel dizzy so I dropped them. All I know is that you are responsible and I will live with you and that is that.”He shook his head at how stupid she was becoming.Now he had to find a way to explain his situation to his grandfather. He had prepared a speech in his mind but he did not know if it would be okay to use it or just apologize. Plain apology was better. Trying to explain how he had sex without a condom even when he was being targeted by multiple people in the company who would use any means to bring him down looked like a very terrible mistake.It was an avoidable one but it had happened nonetheless.“So whe

“Grandfather…” the heir called to be ignored by the man who was not done with his words.“Open it, take the document out, sign it and give it to my lawyer. He will take care of the rest and the company will be all yours. Everything that was under my name will become yours, my bank account included.”“Grandfather…”Someone knocked on the door interrupting what he had to say as the old man waved him away. Richardson could not do anything but walk away from the desk to open the door for the person who was knocking. It turned out to be Philip, his cousin.They both exchanged sad looks with a subtle nod before passing each other. “Richardson,” Damien called just before he exited the office.“Yes, Grandfather,” he turned to look at the man.“Take the day off. You’ve earned it and you need to be home to look after the girls.”Richardson nodded before leaving, closing the door behind him.He had not gotten into his office so he went straight for the boardroom, took up his suitcase and left
