Chapter 61
Mark texted the recording to Leonard and he played it to Emma's hearing. She was taken aback by the words that Antonio uttered and was thinking about what could have warranted such hatred from a sibling. But she was not one to talk when her sister was also a worse counterpart to her. It was something that she couldn't still fathom. "What are you going to do about this?" She asked him and he stared at her. "I don't really want us to press charges." She added."He knows about this but I won't allow him to go Scot free. He needs to face the law." Leonard said, quickly forwarding the text to his friend who was a lawyer. There were certain things that were necessary at certain points in a lifetime. If there was a need for him to press charges instantly, he would, but for now, he would rather just watch while doing his underground work and gathering evidence.His phone rang and he quickly picked it up. He was surprised to hear a gravelly voice. " I am here to see my daughter." The man had

I would like to file a suit against a man who claims to be my daughter's father. She is still too young to decide what to do but I want to make sure that she's protected." Leonard went straight to the point.Dominic, his brother in-law, stared at his computer all through the day and sought what he could do for Leonard. The truth was that unless eyewitnesses confirmed without reasonable doubt that he was a better parent, it was likely that he might lose the case. "I need to know what the backstory is. What happened between Sophie and the man and we can proceed from there? We can't go into the fight blindly." Leonard was a bit skeptical and tired of everything that had been going on and he just wanted utmost assurance that his child would be his, that was all he wanted. " So, I'll get some pieces of evidence for you and then we can discuss. Might I know what your price is?" He asked.He wasn't that buoyant but he would surely come up with something to stop Ava from leaving. That girl c

Leonard was working through the list of things that he needed to get more evidence about Antonio and was waiting for the next information from the lawyer. Estelle was also in talks with her fiance who was currently getting too busy which was making her begin to wonder what the hell was the meaning of his new attitude. She called Leonard to confirm stylishly. "Hello, bro. Do you have any idea if you would be going to Dominic's place today?"Leonard paused in buckling Ava's shoes. She had insisted that she wanted to go over to her mother's place to ask her some questions which in his opinion he didn't find necessary but he also knew that Ava was a stubborn lass. That must have been an acquired trait from him."I don't know yet but I would get to back to you if I turn out to be going there." He replied and she sighed softly.Then he knew something was wrong and opened his mouth to ask when he heard sniffling in the room and he looked up, it was a crying Ava sitting on the bed. "Why don'

He stared at her for a few minutes and was confused by the stupidity that he was busy expressing. "You're unbelievable." He replied and she grinned at him wickedly while making sure that the door was shut permanently to her."Now tell me, why are you here? Do you want me to plead with me but you're pretending as if you don't want to? Instead of pitting my daughter against me and claiming to be her father. Why don't you just concede defeat?" She smirked at him in annoyance mixed with a dash of gloating.Leonard went silent for a minute gathering his thoughts and searching for the best way to be able to convey his words without acting annoyed by the way she was speaking."Even you would choose me as your child's guardian. If you had done what you ought to, she wouldn't be here begging not to be with you. That says a lot about you don't you think?" He replied angrilySophie's face went flush in embarrassment but poke her chin outward just to show that she was not affected by his words. "

When Leonard and Estelle got to the office the next day, they were surprised to see a litany of workers outside but shockingly, they didn't protest like he had thought that they'd do and he commended them."Are you sure that these people are okay this time around because they aren't even attempting to make any trouble which is making me a bit afraid. Don't you think that there's a problem in the land?" Estelle panicked.Then they stared at each other for a minute before Leonard replied. As they neared the people, they saw Antonio sitting on the chair and addressing them."What's your brother playing at?" She asked him and he shrugged. He really didn't care as long as it didn't affect him.The enraptured attention they gave to the mastermind of the fall of the company was laughable. "So I urge you all to be calm, he will surely pay your salaries." Antonio changed the subject of the matter when they got closer."Coward!" Someone shouted at the workers. " You were just telling us now tha

Leonard's hands stopped midair as he received the call. He wanted to believe that it was all a lie and that his brother wasn't even waiting to ambush him but he knew that it was nothing but the truth and the only way that he could dispel all for these was to make sure that there wasn't anyone who could make sure that there was nope problem. It was meant to be the fastest and easiest way to solve a problem but he couldn't help but feel worried that lots of things were not working according to plan."Can you repeat all of these in front of him?" He asked.That was the litmus test. If they could repeat it then ye could only believe a bit but if they found it difficult to, then he'd know that something was fishy. If there was anything he hated, it was being wrong. He preferred to roll with the flow until he got the right answers, only then could he safely accuse whoever was involved. He didn't like doing something and ending up overreacting.That was the reason he was the alway the voice

There was something that was peculiar to Antonio and it was the fact that he was gifted with scheming so badly that one would almost forget that he was just a human. He knew all the people in the right places that could aid his ambitions. On one of these days, he was just trying to get out of the house when an idea struck his head. He was just acting as though he didn't also possess the ability to think thoroughly and it was very annoying then he proposed that he was going to make sure that he was able to get through with a lot of things. "Maybe I should try to win Emma over?" He thought but was met with disappointment. " That is not a good idea, she would be very quick to go tell Leonard all that was happening. At the end of the he remembered someone who had a common beef with one man that he also hated more than anything in his life and it was none other than Kelvin and Sophie! He didn't waste time in trying to locate them. He went to the office and went to his records. They had

Kelvin walked into the establishment with his hands deep into his pocket to stop his fear from showing. There was something that was stopping him from going back already because he knew that once he did, that was all for the day, there was no way that he would be able to rearrange everything back to the way they should have been. "You're welcome, just head over here!" Antonio called as he saw Kelvin looking around warily as if he was lost or something like that. There was something that was making him laugh. "Do you know that there are several people that want to have this opportunity that I'm extending to you? I just hope that you're wise enough not to allow it slip through your fingers. Anyway, when you're ready, kindly let me know." Antonio told somebody on the phone. It was the way he had expected it to be. Kelvin sat down and watched how things were going. It was almost as though there was a problem that he was supposed to solve and that he would need something to change the wa

Kelvin looked about filled with shock about what he was just hearing regarding the proposal he and Sophie submitted, why would Antonio even think something like that? "What? What do you mean? Take a look at the proposal you'd see that it's very much genuine we had no such thing in mind, " Kelvin said defensively and hurriedly, "why would you even think something like that...? ""No it's alright, " Antonio interjected, "don't even bother trying to defend yourself I completely understand. ""Understand what...? I mean that really wasn't it, " Kelvin insisted but Antonio was no longer paying any attention to what he had to say. "I understand why you would do that and I'm ready to forgive you. I'm not really annoyed after all, " Antonio. At this moment Kelvin was completely taken aback, he didn't know and couldn't understand what was going on or why Antonio was behaving strangely, if the guy knew for real that he and Sophie were truly trying to rip the company off or to do something ul

"So Kelvin, " Antonio begins after taking a sip of the drink, "before we begin this new partnership of ours I need to make sure that we're on the same page, first did you tell anyone where you were going? And I mean anyone at all we cannot afford to have anybody at our backs watching us to take note of our moves or to report us to Leonard as you know it's not something my brother would be extremely pleased with. ""No of course not, I didn't tell anybody, " Kelvin answered immediately without even thinking but then he suddenly remembered, "or wait I think I told somebody, just one person. ""What? Who was it? Who did you tell? " Antonio asked. "Sophie, I told her a bit about it before coming here but only I swear, " Kelvin replied. "Whether or not it's a bit doesn't matter at all, not even in the very least, the mere fact that you told anyone anything proves that you're not as trustworthy as I thought, and not to mention the fact that the person you told just so happens to be Sophie
