Leonard had a really long day at work. He was sorting out a few documents in his office when Antonio barged in without a slightest announcement.Leonard's face grew into a frown the moment he saw Antonio in his office.He was really upset with him for repeating the same act over and over even after being warned severally.Antonio knew he was wrong by barging in. Apart from him realizing his mistake, he knew that barging in on people didn't speak well of him.Before Leonard could raise a voice of protest at him, he took it upon himself to apologize.“I'm really sorry for barging in. Trust me, I never meant to do that.”Leonard was taken aback for a moment. He was surprised by Antonio's words of apology, considering the fact that he had never admitted his wrong and apologized in the manner which he just did.Leonard heaved a deep sigh. He glared at Antonio with an icy demeanor.“So why are you here in my office?”“Let’s say I came to check up on you, my brother.” Antonio teased. He sat

At the time that leonard finally arrived at home, he met with Emma who seemed to have been waiting for him in a fidgety manner, as though something had gone wrong somewhere which caused him to be a bit concerned and his mind began to race as he thought through everything to try and figure it exactly what the problem could be, but he decided not to say anything regarding that or ask her any questions and instead just met with her at the door."Are you doing alright?" He asked her sincerely and pulled her into reality causing her to be stupefied and stunned for a brief moment.Her eyes shook lightly before she replied hurriedly, "yes yes I'm doing just fine," but despite this reply, her eyes seemed to dart about and avoid his eyes as she continued to think about something."Alright then what about Ava, is she alright, did anything happen while I was at work?" Leonard asked her again as he continued to wonder why she was still shaking, if nothing really happened then why was she so afrai

Chapter 34
Leonard returns to work the next day. He realizes something unusual in his workplace.His employees were all staring at him in an oblivious manner. Their stares were strange and disturbing. He passed by expecting to get a greeting from them at least. But he was proven otherwise when they said no word of greeting to him.Leonard was moved to shock. He began to wonder what must have gone wrong with them all of a sudden. This is the first time they would see him and act like he never existed.Something was amiss. He knew it. But he ignores them nonetheless and marches on into his office. He was welcomed by Emma's presence as soon as he stepped into the office. He was startled a bit.“Hey! How did you get in here?” He searched his pockets and brought out the office keys.Emma probably had the spare keys with her. She smiled.“How about I say I wanted to give you a great surprise today? I took the spare key from your wallet.”Leonard was amused by what Emma had done. She certainly didn't

Sophie yelled at Leonard. She was very mad at him. “I definitely know what you are. You are nothing but a cheat!” She accused him with every hint of anger in her voice.“You have finally succeeded in tipping the judges to be in your favor, huh?” Leonard couldn't help but laugh at her stupidity. He wondered how it was possible for a person to be so stupid.Emma and Ava were standing beside Leonard. Ava wasn't able to understand what was going on between her parents. She kept watching helplessly.But she was strong enough not to shed a tear. Emma cuddled her to herself and made sure she was okay.Estelle and Antonio were also standing beside Leonard.Sophie was even more mad at how they all remained silent despite their presence in the argument.Her voice spelt unquenchable anger. “How does Leonard here intend to raise this child of his?” She pointed at Ava.

Antonio arrived at the exquisite looking bar that he and his friends picked out specially for tonight.He was waiting for them so they could continue their usual drinking spree.He had been stressed up lately and there was nothing like sitting around his friends and just having a good time getting drunk without a worry in the world.He saw an empty table at the corner which was the perfect size for all of them to sit.”Perfect!” He exclaimed and went ahead to sit down to wait for his fellows to arrive. Quite a while had now passed by and Antonio was still left waiting and his thread of patience was wearing thin and his annoyance increased at every minute that passed by.He didn't understand why they were still taking so much time when the agreed time for them to arrive had come and passed by.His annoyance was now turning into anger .He then decided to call them and each of them gave him some sort of flimsy excuse of how busy they were and urgent things suddenly came up and it just

"So what are you going to do about the party? " Estelle asked her brother as she slumped onto the chair in his office with a light exhale. Leonard looked at her in confusion, he didn't remember hearing anything about a party, and he couldn't recall reading anything relating to that in the company files, "what do you mean by that? Which party are you talking about or what are you referring to? ""What? " Estelle said in shock and sat up right, "are you really telling me that you do not know anything about the party? ""No I don't know, I mean maybe I have heard about it before or maybe I forgot or something, you know lately a lot of things have been on my mind and it would be nothing short of a miracle for me to even remember something so simple, is the party anything important? If it is not then we can as well just forget about it and find a lot more important and edifying things to do with our time..." Leonard answered casually and turned back to his laptop. "Really? I cannot belie

Leonard tried to remain standing, as stoic as he could, but the pain in his heart quickly developed into jealousy and into a quick feeling of contempt towards the person Emma had brought with her to the party. "Emma, would you please come with me, I have a few questions to ask you regarding the reports you handed over to me earlier, " Leonard said, racking through his mind to find any possible reason to call her to himself and have a word with her privately. He then hurried back to his office before anyone could ask him any questions. In his mind he wondered Why he was feeling like that but he decided not to bother too much about it and tried to force down whatever feelings he had that seemed to be developing towards her. "Isn't this supposed to be a party of sorts? I mean that's what you told me, " Emma's friend asked and turned to face her with a rather confused expression on his face."I do not understand why your boss could possibly need you to attend to business or another lik

Before long there was a knock on the door, and then three successive knocks followed after. "Come in, " Leonard said, as he assumed it to be Emma who was at the door, but then he was surprised to see someone completely different walk into his office, she was the lady dressed in a peplum blue gown, he hadn't really focused much on her but he knew who she was, the lady who had really strike an impression on him and the one that Antonio had introduced him to along with her father Mr Griffin. She was Alicia, but why was she here? He asked himself inwardly, "Alicia? What are you doing here? You should be at the party enjoying yourself or is there something that you need? "Little beads of sweat began to form on his body as he thought back to what his sister had said earlier. "No actually, I am here for a different purpose entirely, " Alicia replied rather vaguely. "And what purpose is that? " Leonard asked, he was gradually feeling more and more uncomfortable and began to wonder exactly
