"Check for the Dynamite's suppliers, I'll need to get across to them immediately!" Kendrick ordered as he stood up, leaving the office. ****************Laughter always rang out in the Rogers mansion, and no matter where the laughter came from, it bounced around the walls, all the rooms.Now arguments rose quickly and lingered around for days. Morning and night left them in turmoil, the dining table couldn't pull them together anymore as everyone decided to eat their meals in their rooms. Their faces always sparkled, but since the day Kendrick left that house, sullen looks took turns on each face. Peace Churchill kept making plans of pushing her daughter back to Kendrick, but daily she kept resisting, she couldn't stand the shame of getting back to him. This other day, the conversation heated above 100 degrees. "You better go back to that man, so you could get all the properties grandfather had kept for you too!" Peace Churchill said. "Can't you see that we're the ones losing?..
She turned it over, her eyes scanning the blank exterior, searching for any hint or clue. The man's smile seemed to grow wider, his eyes glinting with a knowing light as if he held a secret that was about to change everything. Louis stared at her mother read through the documents, and immediately, her eyes widened."A new house and a new car for my daughter?" An air of excitement radiated over her face.Louis quickly turned, her eyes sparkled with ecstasy."What?" She exclaimed."Yes, Louis… please check it out here… come see it for yourself." Peace said, handing the document to her. The sound of her voice pierced through the room, Maverick wondered at what it could be from behind the door. He wasn't getting it well, were they jubilation or screaming for help? He thought within himself before opening the door with force. Immediately he entered, his eyes settled on Louis' smiling face."Come on Maverick, I've just been given a new house and a car." She exclaimed rushing to hug h
She knocked on the door to Mrs. Katherine's room and opened gently. Her eyes scanned the sprawled-out bedroom, a king-sized bed placed in the middle of the room, that was where Old Rogers usually folded himself into whenever he called to advise them, then it turned to Katherine Rogers who was sitting on the chair close to the dressing mirror. "Is there a problem, dear?" Katherine asked. Peace Stumbled into the room, her eyes swollen and reddened."Yes… Yes, there's a problem, Mum." She said, her voice trailing off as she spoke. Katherine quickly dropped the comb she held in her hands and turned to her with a sharp gaze that seemed to piece through and read the contents of her heart."Come sit here, dear.. come." She called out, gesturing to Peace and she reluctantly walked towards her."Now tell me what is it?" She asked. After Peace explained what had happened some minutes ago with the unknown Bolton, Katherine's face flushed with disappointment."If that letter is authentic an
The day was drawing to an eventful close, and Kendrick had returned home, his nerves still reeling from the shockwave that had rocked his workplace. The echoes of the day's events still lingered, refusing to be silenced. "His company suspended? his contract terminated?"... Kendrick's thoughts seethed with disbelief as he stormed into the living room, dismissing the chorus of greetings from the guards outside with a curt nod, their words ricocheting off him like stray bullets.Just as he opened the door, a voice announced loudly, "Dad, here he is… he is back just on time!" It was Evelyn, she exclaimed as he walked into the room. Mr. Peterson's eyes raised gently, then settled on Kendrick with a blank stare. Kendrick greeting him as he turned towards the stairs, his voice deep and calm. "Kendrick!!... What's the message I received today about? … Huh… what's it about?" Peterson asked, his eyes locked onto Kendrick's who had halted and turned to him. "What exactly are you talking
"Are you still there?..." He asked, and Sparrow's voice came alive with a small crackling. "Go on, I'm listening to you." Sparrow replied. Peterson cleared his throat, then said, "you have nothing to say, Sparrow… that's his conpany, and he has the right to handle it the way it pleases him… The sky is wide enough brother, and you can soar in another direction instead of jealousing an eagle who is already on flight." Sparrow calculated the words, he gave a deep sigh, then replied in a hard tone. "Wasn't he greedy to get those companies from Maradona and I? … why didn't you tell him to let go of it?." Peterson's eyes flickered, he shook his head and with a louder voice, he replied. "... You and Maradona had staked your assets… and the boy won. What was I supposed to do? Stop him? … you and I know that it is not done that way." Sparrows voice lowered, he could feel the pain of defeat, he stammered. "... He… he never defeated, if he did, then why is he kicked out of h
"Can we go out young master?... You'll definitely get something more delicious to eat out there, please." Emily pleaded.Kendrick stood up reluctantly from the chair, his feet making a scrinch sound on the floor."That's fine, then." He replied and turned to Evelyn who was resting her head on the sofa and asked. "Aren't you coming with us?" Evelyn hesitated for some minutes before jumping from the chair. "Where are you two going?" "He was to take me out today, so I believe we're going to anywhere nice, to have fun." Emily replied with a calm smile, while Evelyn sighed gently.The two spent another 10 minutes exchanging words, so Kendrick folded his arms as he watched them, Emily said all she had to say with a smile on her face, then she turned towards the exit door without looking back. "I'll be coming then, I hope you would buy me something very expensive out there?" Evelyn asked, then rushed to follow him.Kendrick turned with a shocking gaze, he couldn't believe she was going
Emily kept turning to observe the pearl and diamond jeweleries that adorned a part of the mall."Look, see that bro." She said, pointing at a set of diamond necklaces, that shimmered in a small glass box.It dangled back and forth, giving sparkling reflections. Evelyn turned and suddenly, her eyes sparkled. "That's beautiful! She exclaimed as she turned to it. "I need that particular necklace, bro… please, get it for me, it would fit the dress I want to use for mum's funeral." Emily said. Kendrick nodded gently and turned with her to the glassware, immediately he got to it, his eyes widened at the price tag that clung to the box. "That's so expensive, Emily." He said as she obsevered it, a whooping 5million doallars for a necklace?" He exclaimed. He turned to Evelyn who was patting Emily on the shoulders.Evelyn smirked, "Yeah, it's the most expensive necklace here, I guess." She said as she bent to check the rest of it. Kendrick shook his head gently and replied, "let's get s
"If that's what it is, sir… then you'll have to speak with our manager… no one has ever made such a purchase here to that amount here." The salesgirl said in a calm and gentle tone. Keins Reels laughed sarcastically, he turned to his girlfriend who was watching Kendrick in anticipation of what was to happen. "That's actually fine by me." Kendrick said."But that would be my sister's face if you're to put it out there." He said, pointing to Emily, and she grinned. The salesgirl rushed to the receptionist's table, and pressed a bell, informing the manager of the purchase they were about to have.The manager was astonished, Kendrick could hear her voice from the loudspeaker, it was loud enough that even Reels could hear her say, "...Please I'm coming to meet him." Shocked rippled through Keins Reel's eyes when he saw the manager rush out towards Kendrick "You're welcome, sir… I'm very sorry she allowed you to stand, can you follow me to my office please." She pleaded as she beckon
