"Huh?" Emily suddenly exclaimed. She was oblivious of her parted mouth. "What is it about? I hope there's not a problem. Are you fighting with your Dad, or you must have gotten yourself into trouble?"Emily was not patient to even hear what he had to say before blabbing. She had thought that his sour mood was as a result of whatever he had to say.Duncan glared at her. He was unsure of what to reply to Emily with. What's she even talking about?"Emily." He blurted out angrily. "What the heck are you even saying? Shouldn't you have let me finish before crucifying me.""I've noticed your temper since when you called, so I deduced something was wrong." Emily tried to explain but Duncan's raised hand which signified that he was not interested in listening to her.Since she has already reached a conclusion without confirmation, there was no need to explain further."Nevermind." Tilting her head, she felt disappointed. Emily decided to play with her phone a little. It's best she let things

"Who invited you to my party?" Andy yelled, coursing everyone to turn towards the direction of the noise. Andy Sanders was the birthday girl. The arrogant daughter of a big shot fashion Mogul in Texas, Beckman Sanders. However, the Paddingtons were way more richer than the Sanders as they have countless subsidiary companies. During their times in Plainview high school, Andy had her Clique and of which Emily was exempted but she did everything possible to go closer to Andy. Although Andy didn't see Emily fit to be her friend, in time Emily was able to catch a spot in Andy's space but not too close a spot. They were just a little distant friends. This was as a result of going to the same college.Andy had sent an invitation to most of her college and highschool friends. Although, the ones who were not invited got to know about the party from others and they took the chance. Ofcourse, who wouldn't want to attend a party at a five star hotel? Moreover, it was an opportunity to get to ea

It had been a long and eventful weekend and he was happy to finally be back to work. Even though he went to the party dressed like a pauper, he never expected to still be humiliated. They were still so shallow minded. Even in all their sophistications, they still had very poor mentality. Well, that's exactly how most rich spoiled brats behave and their parents contributes a lot to this awful behavior of their children. However, Andy Sanders was the last of his problems. He was going to come to make her eat her words when it was time. Still engrossed in his work, Zachary heard noises outside his office and decided to find out what the problem might be. "I just want to see Mr Zachary." Emily requested but Maraya refused her passage. "You have to state your reason for wanting to meet with the boss or there's no way I'm letting you in. Moreover, you don't have an appointment with him." Maraya retorted angrily. She never liked Emily and the latter was really getting on her nerves recen

"I hope all is well grandpa." Tensed, Zachary asked Kelvin."There's no problem son, See you be Kelvin replied and immediately ended the call.Zachary's thoughts hovered around as he kept thinking about the sudden summon he got without a reason.What could be this urgent and important message that had to require his presence? Well, he was going to find out when he got there.He immediately put a call through to inform Nathan that he won't be coming home on time.***Kelvin sat in his study having a few drinks when he beckoned on Benedict to join him. The latter who had been standing behind Kelvin went across and sat down, his eyes transfixed on Kelvin as if he was waiting for his boss to say something to him. In response, Kelvin took one sip from his glass and cleared his throat. He doesn't seem to be in a good mood. Who would still be in a good mood after coming out of a serious argument."What do you think?" He asked, directing his gaze towards Benedict and the latter shook his hea

At his Villa, Zachary could not help but reflect on his past life and how he had suffered so much just to earn a living and also go to school. What would have become of him if grandpa Nathan was not strong enough to take care of him? He would have ended up at the orphanage home or worse dead. Now Carlos Paddington had just shown up like nothing ever happened. He expected him to just forgive when it still hurt so deeply. He could only imagine the pains his mother had been through. How much he wished to see his mother. Pacing around the room, Zachary felt empty inside and devastated. All he felt for his so-called father was nothing but hatred. He can't imagine ever forgiving him or to call him Dad.Still engrossed in his thoughts, he heard someone knock on the door."Come in." Zachary said hastily and did not even look at the door to find out who it was."My dear." Zachary heard Nathan's voice and quickly stood to his feet."Grandpa, you should have sent for me instead. I don't like yo
