Late at night, a black car parked at a fancy night restaurant. The left part of the car opened as Hannah stepped out and entered the restaurant. The security quickly opened the door for her.A woman in her fifties was already waiting for Hannah. She sat alone at a table, a glass of red wine in front of her. She was impeccably dressed, her hair perfectly coiffed, and her makeup flawless. "Mum" Hannah said going over to meet her, she sat down."You had to keep me waiting for so long." She said with a void expression."I'm sorry ma, traffic.""Didn't ask for a reason." She said rudely. "Have you done what I asked you to do?" She asked with a piercing gaze."Yes mum, Marcus and I had been divorced." Hannah said, an etch of regret in her voice."Good." She placed her hands delicately on the table. "Did you get to date a rich man now?" She asked."Yes and we are already engaged."“Engaged without my permission again?” She asked."Who's he? I hope he isn't some other wretched cameraman?" Sh

Days have passed and Marcus's hand has healed. He was walking out from one of his companies , dressed in a tuxedo white suit."Are all the papers ready?" Marcus asked, he was on a phone call.."Yes young master, it's all ready?""And what about the new secretary? Have you found any?""Yes I have and she'll be in your office today to have a one on one interview with you" Sam said."Alright, I hope she's a professional? I don't want any clumsy person that always makes mistakes, I want a more serious person." Marcus said strictly."I assure you young master, she has an excellent degree"Marcus hung up taking a curve towards the exit, but suddenly a lady bumped into Marcus, spilling her hot coffee on his white suit."Argh!" Marcus gritted his teeth as the hot coffee burnt his chest and his clothes were also stained."I'm so sorry" she quickly apologized and a bugger was also on her other hand."F****" he cursed."I'll help you clean it up." She dropped her food on a counter next to her, b

Carmelia left the mansion in tears, she felt hurt badly, she wiped her tears with her pink towel. She stoped a taxi leaving the premises. Marcus really spoiled her day, maybe she was the one at fault, maybe it was the way she reacted to him at the company, or maybe she was just bad.She sighed leaning backwards on the taxi seat. Her mom is sick and she had to work hard to cover up the bills and also make a living. Working as a secretary in the Blackwood's conglomerate is a dream come true, her life would change for good. But now she lost it and she had no other option to return to the NTT company as a common staff, although she wasn't certain she would return. She wouldn't want to work in Marcus's company anymore, she can't afford to see his face again to avoid humiliation.Her phone then rang, the caller was Jessica. Carmelia wasn't ready to pick the call so she just ghosted it, after multiple calls Jessica decided to send her a text instead. "What's the matter Carmelia? you aren't p

"How did you know?" Mr. Matthew asked, his curiosity piqued."That's not important. What's important is getting it back," Marcus insisted, his resolve unwavering.Mr. Matthew, however, seemed unmoved. "I'm sorry, Mr. Blackwood, but the government had to do something with the abandoned building. After all, it was just sitting there, and the Blackwoods were nowhere to be found. As the local government, we had a responsibility to take action."All Marcus could hear from his voice was his greed. "I don't care about that anymore Mr Matthew, all I want is a solution. I want that building back at all cost." Marcus kept a serious face."The building is now under Mr. Wealth's ownership," Mr. Matthew explained, his voice tinged with regret. "It might be impossible to retrieve it at this point."Marcus was determined to find a solution. "What do you mean by 'impossible'?" he pressed.Mr. Matthew sighed. "Mr. Wealth purchased the building for one billion dollars. I'm afraid it would be a very com

"Please Lord Magnus, I swear I'm innocent, I didn't try to betray you." The man begged, tears pouring from his eyes, he was sweating and shaking with great fear. He was tied to a chair in a very dark room with little illumination."So you're saying Thomas is lying?" Magnus asked, his voice filled with dread."Yes Lord Magnus. He's trying to set me up, I can swear I never did what he said." The man cried and his nose became watery."Lord Magnus, Thomas is the real betrayal...you have to believe me."Magnus lowered his body to the man. "You dare accuse Thomas in front of me?" A very frightening voice escaped his lips.The man was shaking, sweating, he felt like his soul was about to leave his body.He was reported to Magnus for trying to snuggle from the drug he was sent to deliver to the overseas. And this was an act by Mr. Wealth. Aka Lord Magnus won't tolerate it.All of Magnus's men knew better than to betray him, but Thomas was the most trusted of all. He was always seen wearing a
