"Darius is Carla's husband." Philip started somberly as his father listened attentively."He was a poor man that couldn't provide well for his Carla and his family. He was moving from job to job and Carla's parents were getting angry with him. Because I love Carla I couldn't stand by and watch as her poor husband couldn't provide for her.So I made arrangements with her parents that if Carla should divorce Darius, I would marry her. But Darius didn't want to divorce Carla. I also talked with Darius' parents that they should convince Darius to divorce Carla since he can't take care of her as the poor man that he is. It was around that time that Darius started asking me to get him a job if I want him to leave Carla alone..."Philip went on and on to say the story in a way that portrayed him as the good guy."So now you're engaged to another man's wife and he is now more powerful and influential than you are so what is the big deal about it? Just let him have his wife in peace." Mr Churc

Darius was beginning to feel good lately. His chest had been becoming freer from the thoughts of revenge that he had planned.Not that he gave up his plans of getting his revenge, but it didn't weigh him down or disturb him as much. After thinking about it, he knew why.There was no need for him to out his Father, Rachel and James under surveillance again. They were locked up in the cell so didn't have to monitor them every time from his office. The only person he was currently keeping tabs on now was Carla.Since the day he had ordered his 'family' to be locked up. He had started living like the rich man that he was. It was just that he didn't really expose himself that much so Carla hadn't met him in those couple of days.This particular morning however. He came into his office whistling a merry tune. The events of the previous day was still fresh in his head. Threatening Philip and seeing him panicked did Darius a good dose of relief such that when he got home he got himself to try

"I picked up your call, didn't I?" Carla fired back."And I'm currently at work so why are you disturbing me with calls at this time?" She asked with displeasure evident in her voice."I'm at the gate of your company right now and I'm trying to enter but these bastards won't let me in." Philip replied. "Come and help me do something about it." He demanded."There's nothing I can do about it." Carla stated. She actually didn't want to help Philip enter her place of work. She was sure his visit wasn't to be pleasant for any reason.Darius had resumed his meal since Carla was on a call right now. He behaved like he wasn't listening but he paid very good attention to what Carla and Philip were talking about."There you go again with that nonsense excuse." Philip said with irritation. "I know you're just spitting lies and you don't want to help me." He said."You know what? Don't bother anymore." He suddenly said before Carla could reply. In the next second, Philip hung up the call.Carla

"Those damn bastards!" Darius cursed.His plan hadn't worked out this time. He had wanted to watch as Philip would embarrass himself in public again then Darius would use the opportunity to fire Carla and chase the both of them out of his company.What infuriated him the most was that they had already planned the wedding between Philip and Carla. Something that he didn't know about. And Carla hadn't even thought it necessary to mention it to him during the lunch time at work that they shared for those few days.It was really annoying. Darius got reminded of the anger that had subsided a bit. He wanted to actually take it slow before but now that his button was pushed, he wanted to deal with them properly this time around.He watched the awkward meeting between Mr Churchill and Maxwell. Philip hadn't even mentioned a word throughout.Maxwell had only taken Mr Churchill away from the cafeteria because he wanted them to stop talking about Darius. So siting down in his Maxwell's office wa

Carla had a very troubled day. She couldn't get herself together after hearing everything that Darius said. All the sweet fantasies that she had started harbouring towards him had disappeared.When Darius had actually first shown up in her house the previous day. She was enticed by the affection he showed. She had started to feel a certain attraction to that new side of Darius. It gave her butterflies in her stomach so to speak and so she readily followed him when he pulled her along.In that moment. She saw Darius as her saviour from Philip's grasp. She knew that Philip was going to be the worst husband ever but there was no way she could escape from him till Darius showed up and took her away.Best part was that he now had more power and money than Philip and even his father. She saw how Philip had reacted to that amount of money that Darius casually gave away and was convinced. So she followed Darius without offering any resistance.Being driven to the office, she thought she could
