CHAPTER 21
A MISSING FILEMaven hurried out of the hall and got into her car. She drove off to her office like a lion chasing a prey beads of sweat filled her body as she pulled over and jumped out of her car. She scurried into the elevator and headed for her office. Her secretary Grace was on seat when she got in.“You are back so early Ma'am”. Grace observed “Grace am in deep trouble as we speak,” Maven said, scratching her head.“What do you mean, ma'am? Grace asked with a puzzled look on her face.‘Remember the Tender file I was working on for bidding with the Al Thani's?“Yes. I do”. Grace answered.“well! I can’t find it. I was at the tower this morning and I just realized the file isn't with me. I have a wrong envelope". Maven spoke, her voice thick with mucus as she sniffed. She grabbed her handkerchief, which she had earlier placed on the table, and placed it across her nose. She then blew the heavy mucus into it to relieve herself a bit. “ I am so sorry Ma'am. Let me help you sear

CHAPTER 22
AN INTRUDER"Thomas, thank you for coming through for me, “Maven said with gratitude. Her tone was filled with heartfelt happiness.Thomas looked at her and shook his head. I already told you, I got your back, my wifey," he smiled and rubbed her softly on the chin. ‘Perhaps you should get going now so you won’t be late for your meeting." Thomas raised his brows as he spoke to her.“That’s right! Thank you so much." She responded.Thomas hurriedly made his way out of the enormous tower. He covered his head with the faded hoodie and began to stretch his legs out. Thomas stole a few glances as he watched his back from the corner of his eyes. No one knew who he was yet, but he still had to cover himself. No one must recognise him. The moment he was out, he hopped into a taxi and headed home.He sat in the taxi for a while, and then he brought out his phone and dialed a number.“Listen here! Everything must go as planned. Do not mess things up!” he spoke into the phone. The conversation

CHAPTER 23
WHAT DO THEY REALLY WANT? Maven took the spoon and got a first taste of the pasta Thomas had spent almost half a century preparing in the kitchen. “Come on, mom. It isn’t That bad… She was not done with her speech when she spit out the food. “What is anything wrong with it?’ Thomas asked ignorantly. “Shut up, fool. Where is the seasoning you added to it?” Victoria always spoke to him with venom and hatred because she thought that Thomas had bewitched her daughter into marrying him. “Let me go get the seasoning. I am sorry." He said it sharply and got to the kitchen. In less than a minute, he appeared with the seasoning so they could add it to their food. They all took part in and added to the meal. The minute they were done eating, Thomas packed all the dirty plates and headed to the kitchen to do the dishes, while Maven retreated to her room to finish some jobs she had at hand. Victoria was still sitting in the living room with a half-filled glass of fresh juice standing

Chapter 24
THE REVELATION Thomas was seated outside the building on the front porch when his phone began to beep. He had intentionally put it in the vibration mood so Maven wouldn’t suspect anything going on in his life. He looked at the phone quickly and grabbed it before it buzzed one more time. "Hello, sir." He spoke into the phone with all seriousness, then a light smile embellished his lips. He filched the bottom and placed the phone in his ear.“Do you still remember we have a deal?” The voice came booming from the other end. Thomas had almost totally forgotten he had scheduled a training section with Sir Larry for later today. There were a lot of things to settle in his life in general. However, going for this training was just one of those things that was as important as the air he breathes; keeping his late father’s legacy and avenging those who killed his parents was not a major task he had to accomplish so he could fully gain access to his wealth. Even though Grandpa Rufus Al Thani

CHAPTER 25
AN URGENT CALL Thomas’s mind is already made for what he might face in the course of going for the contest. He is strongly surprised by his father’s father's willpower to be the best at what he does. He shut his eyes and mouths a few words of encouragement to himself. At least his grandpa knows of his commitments, and in no time he will fully take over all the wealth that has been kept for him. With an affixed gaze on Sir Lary he imagined what would happen if he lost the game. But that isn't his plan. Just then his phone rang, taking him a little off guard. “Who is calling?” Sir Larry asked with curiosity. “I think it's Maven, " he replied without taking his eyes off the phone screen. “She wants to come to her office immediately.” “Oh, I see. And its food you are married to. Family bonding, remember? Sir Larry grinned Then again you must be careful with her uncles. They can be very creepy. “I’ve had a little experience with them; however, I will take your advice."

CHAPTER 26
A FALSE ACCUSATION She took him upstairs through the elevator. The company was calm and quiet, and her uncles have scheduled a meeting, and she is fully aware that all they plan to do is humiliate her yet again, just as they have always done. She held him by the hand, even though he was looking tattered.Her staff watched her as she led the shabbily dressed man into her office. Of course, she knows that they have bad things to say about her. She braced herself, tilted her head up, and walked in with poise and grace. She pushed the door open and led him into her office. “You have a really nice space." He told her as he scanned the room with his large eyes. “Oh! Really?. Thank you so much, Thomas. I didn't quite realize that I had a really nice office until you said it." She teased him with a smile. “I see”.“”So you will have to wait here. I need to confirm if they have started, and then you can join me." She said this and placed her finger on the tip of her lip, like she was thi

CHAPTER 27
YOUR HUSBAND IS GONEThomas was pissed by the time they got out of the conference room.“Why does your family treat you like an outcast? Like you were adopted by your father?” He asked her with a hint of pity in his tone. He had done absolutely nothing but watched them treat and talk to her like trash, but all of that was going to end any time soon.“Thank you, Thomas. I needed you to be with me in that conference room because I cannot deal with all of them by myself.” She said it in a sad tone.“Everything is going to be alright." He assured her and hugged her.“I will be home early so we can play games together." She told him with a reassuring smile on her face. Thomas nodded in response and began to walk away. He swayed his shoulders until he got to the security post. He grinned at them and then balled his fist at them for almost making those dogs bite him up.If Maven had not intervened, he would have been at the hospital treating dogs, or maybe he would have been dead. He made mo

CHAPTER 28
THE SUMMONMaven cried and rolled on the floor when the nurse broke the news for her. She just couldn't believe that her husband was dead. How could he die? He had just been with her a few minutes ago at the office. She wailed and rolled.Then he got up with the help of the nurse."Ma'am, we are about to take him to the morgue. Would you like to see him one more time before we take him out?” The nurse asked with pity in her eyes.With a repeated nod, Maven answered. “Yes please. I would love to see him." She sniffed the snot off her nose and prepared herself for the worst feeling she had ever had. “Get a grip of yourself, ma'am." The nurse said it again and opened the white cloth to reveal his face. Maven held her mouth from screaming as she saw the man lie lifeless on the bed."Wait, this is not my husband." She announced this and wiped her swollen eyes.“Huh?” The nose responded with a shock. “Yes. That's not my husband.” she said and moved closer for a better view. “Yes! He is no

CHAPTER 29
ANSWERING THE SUMMONMaven walked into her room with her shoulders drooping and tired. She knows her mom doesn't like her fake husband, but that doesn't mean she will treat him like he doesn't deserve to live. She climbed up to her room and sat on the bed. She hadn't slept well last night, and it was showing all over her face. She got up and stood in front of the mirror to check her eye bags, which were sitting pretty in their position.She brushed her hair and went into the bathroom for a quick bath. By the time she got out, she realized her phone had charged a bit. She quickly turned it on, only to see several summons messages from her grandma and her uncles and the recent pop-up from David in her chatbox.She hurriedly got dressed and went downstairs. She took a cup of coffee and two slices of bread before leaving the house. As she approached her car, a beautiful butterfly stood on the windscreen, flapping its wings at the rising morning sun. Maven smiled and squinted her eyes at

CHAPTER 30
AVOIDING TROUBLEMaven squirmed from side to side, watching Grandma Clara retire to her room. She was devastated and confused about what to do. Her husband is in the hospital, lying in a very crucial state. All Grandma Clara cares about are contracts and deals. Deals that she knows nothing about. Maven sighed and snickered at once.She had to go back to the hospital to look after Thomas, but then again, grandma is a woman of her words, and if she is unable to meet the demands, she might as well lose everything. She held her jaw in her hand and began to think. She grabbed her phone and walked out of the house. She got into her car and drove off to work. She could only play her favorite music as she drove to work. She wiped the tears that now rolled down her cheek as she recalled every bad treatment and mean word Grandma Clara had ever said to her. This was it, and she has tried so hard not to hate Grandma for anything. She smacked her lips together and focused on driving; she didn’
