James overheard the conversation that went on between Charles and Louis and he moved closer to Charles.“Could it be her man? You know, recently, she has been acting like she someone has come into her life.” James said.“Does that give him the right to act this way towards the man he presumes to be her boss?” Charles uttered, feeling outright disrespected.“I understand. Probably he’s just scared that something might have happened to her. You know, when the love is just blooming, they act so mad in love.”“None of what you’re saying is helping right now.”“I want you to track the caller, and track his moves, just so we know what he’s up to.” Charles instructed, feeling uneasy about the call.He felt uneasy because he truly couldn’t get in touch with vera, which meant he couldn’t produce her to her boyfriend. He also couldn’t explain where she went to, because if he explained that she’s on a trip, she ought to be reachable, and no CCTV or airline would record her leaving the city or co

About three days had passed, and Mr. Adam and Mark had been given their jail term. Mr. Adam was sentenced to five years imprisonment; although, it ought to be more than that, but they pardoned him because he assisted the cops in the investigation. But Mark was given ten years imprisonment as that what was by the law and what he deserved.Vera had also been released since she had no criminal record, and she was the one who was tricked into giving out Charles’ bank information. The only person who had a say on what to do with her, was Charles.If Charles wanted her to be sued for giving out something as confidential as that, he could, and won’t be confronted for it.Charles was in the office, going over some documents when a knock came on his door.“Come in, please.” Charles urged, without looking up at the person coming in.But then, he decided to look up since the person who walked in had not said a word, and to his un-expectation, it was Vera. Both her hands were together, humbly, an

The next day, James was faced with the responsibility of interviewing applicants for the vacancy post. It was a tiring day for him as more people turned up, unexpectedly. Well, so many people wanted to work for Charles as they all could feel the impacts of his company and they all witness the glow his employees had.They were well paid, respected, loved, cared for and even tipped when necessary. “Good day, sir.” One of the female applicants who was called in for an interview, greeted him.“Good day, miss. Let's get straight to what we're here for, right?” James said, wanting to conclude on things quickly.“Yes, we can.” She responded.“So, what can you offer this company? What difference will you make when you come into this company?” James questioned, then laid back on his chair, waiting to hear her response.“I’m Janelle Kristoff. Well, uhm… I'm very qualified. As you have looked into my credentials, you would notice I have good interpersonal skills, and I'm skilled in this line of

Charles decided to check what those points he has acquired so far, can get him. He scrolled through the system, and checked summation of points acquired.YOUR POINTS ALL EQUAL TO 15. DO YOU WISH TO USE THEM? YES/NOCharles decided to take advantage of the yes, but only to see what skills he could acquire, but before he could click on the yes, he was interrupted by James who wanted to inform him that he was ready for the check-up they wanted to have on the Adams company which they had taken over, for a long time.“Alright, let’s go then.” Charles said as he dismissed trying to figure things out with his system. He rose to his feet and then headed out of his office with James. They both got into the car immediately they stepped out of the company, and Charles’ driver drove them off to the Adams former company.“It’s been a long while since we went there physically. Although, Vera was handling things with them and ensuring they’re being kept in check. But since Vera was trapped into the

The next day, Charles had had his bath, and was searching through his wardrobe for something simple to wear.Today was his mother's memorial and as usual, he doesn't do anything on that day. He decided to wear a dark suit as that's how it has always been.After dressing up, and ensuring he was leaving nothing behind, he walked out of his room, with his shoes making tapping sounds which echoed as he walked down the stairs leading to his living room."Good morning sir." Martha greeted politely."Good morning." He responded with his hands in his pocket."Here are the flowers you ordered. They came in an hour ago." Martha informed as she handed the bouquet of flowers to him.Charles removed his hand from his pocket and received the flowers, then sniffed the scent in."Smells nice." He spoke as he nodded his head in acknowledgement. "Alright then. Until when I get back home."Charles turned towards the door and then halted before he turned back to her."You should also take the day off." He
