Meanwhile in the Peterson's mansion, Mr. Peterson had surrendered all he ever owned to Kendrick, and his daughters.

Now making him three times wealthier and powerful than he was, he turned to Evelyn, as he was about to leave to work.

"We talked about you meeting with the commissioner, Astrid, in regards shipping modern technology equipments to your hospital." He said.

Evelyn stood by the other side of the living room, she nodded gently. "Yeah, but I haven't planned on a day to do that, yet." She said."I'm informed that she would be shipping in some of those equipments from Germany, so I should meet her in regards it."

"Exactly my point!" Kendrick exclaimed. "How about you go meet her today?" He asked.

Surprised, Evelyn's brows furrowed at the edge. "Isn't that too soon?... You said you've been trying to reach her, does it mean she doesn't have your contact anymore?"

"I don't know, but each time I called, someone would answer, and I believe it should be her personal assistant." Ken

    The night was cold but the morning was colder. The tree branchesdanced the fast rhythmic tunes of the wind. They waved energetically from left to right. The alarm for six a.m. was prompt and Evelyn rolled in her duvet to the left side and blindly tried to put it off. Finally, it came off but suddenly she remembered that it was an auspicious day.She jumped up with a smile and fell back to bed abruptly. The thought of having the letter signed and the goods transported made her heart merry. She pictured her self standing by the hospital gate as a boss lady that she was, giving directions and instructions of where the medical equipments should be kept. She smiled at herself on the TV screen as the thought lingered and lingered.Evelyn took up her pillow and pressed it against her face softly. She was so happy knowing that day had finally come, the day she had waited long enough for. Her hospital was finally taking shape and the medical facilities she always wanted in her possession were

    “So because it's Kendrick's sister that means I must attend to her before others. Who does Kendrick think he is? Because he helped me before?” Mrs Astrid soliloquized to her self in anger as she saw what Kendrick was doing. She was actually doing nothing, she called in her secretary.“Hello, bring in a cup of tea and some biscuits.”“Yes ma'am.” The secretary replied and dropped her telecom.She took out the tv remote which was beside her bag under some newspapers and changed the channel. She crossed her leg on the sofa and got carried away by a TV series she always loved but didn't watch because of lack of time.“Yeah, this will keep me busy, when she's tired, she'll leave the same way she came.” A knock on the door and she shouted, “come in!”The secretary waled in with a tray of Beloxxi biscuits and a cup of tea with a container of brown sugar. She dropped on the table in front of her and asked, “anything else?”“None for now, I'll call you if I need anything else.”“Okay ma'am

    She opened the office and found Mrs. Astrid enjoying her favorite series on her white sofa. She also met wraps of biscuit and a stained tea cup on the table. It seemed like she took them exactly two hours ago. Evelyn controlled her tempwr and smiled despite everything pointing towards the fact that she was not busy.“Mrs. Astrid, I'm Evelyn. Kendrick my brother discussed with you about the supply of some medical equipments and facilities. I came with the documents, all I need you to do is sign them,” she said dropping her bag on the table next to the teacup and bringing out the document.She stretched them to Mrs. Astrid who laughed sarcastically.“You found your way through now you want to order me?” Mrs. Astrid said.“No, not at all.” My brother ran you through the details. He only said you'll sign and I'll be on my way.“Well your brother lied. I will sign no such deal and I want you out of my office, this instance.”Evelyn stood in shock as she saw how defiant and adamant she was

    It has been Three days since the captain boarded for Germany but he hadn't received any calls from him or anyone in his crew concerning the shipment. He was worried but she was more worried. He didn't like when she had that look on her face but at this point, he had no help.“C'mon man, chill. It's possible anything could have happened and he's not been able to call you.” Charles said, calming his tensed demeanor.“You know Evelyn right? She's not gonna understand this! You know women in general, they lack understanding of this kind of things.”“I know but if you're hyperventilating and pacing around the room like a lunatic, you don't give her much of a choice to be composed herself.”“Great point there but irrelevant at the moment.”“I'm glad you realize that it's a great point but you don't see it as relevant. Calm down, the sea is not like land, things don't move the same way.”“Have you ever travelled by sea?” Kendrick asked.“No, I haven't, why would I? We have aeroplanes.” Char

    Mrs Astrid alighted from the car with her own security officers who kept her protected at all times. She was the higher authority and a close friend to the governor. This was done by Kendrick who she refused to help when he needed her.“Ensure you keep an eye on him, don't let him wander anywhere. ““Yes ma'am. We will take care of him.” The officer said and then saluted.“Mrs Astrid, wait behind let me confirm if the equipments are there.” “Okay, Mr. Deputy Governor.” She replied and waited behind.“Excuse me, please can I see the owner of this hospital?”“Mrs. Evelyn Peterson. She should be in her office. Do you have any appointments with her?”“Evelyn Peterson, any problem?” She said, bumping into him quickly.“Nice to meet you. Nice hospital by the way.”“Thank you. I think I've seen this face before, it looks very familiar.”“I'm the deputy governor of the state. I want to check if this hospital has some specialized instruments and other essential equipments for the diagnosis as

    It was early morning, and the news of a VIP convict's demise spreaded the state like a plague. Televisions, car radios and lip service spreaded the information like wildfire, and the Peterson's mansions were not exempted from the icy glare. "Hello, young master… have you not heard of the recent death?" Evelyn asked in a baffled tone, her eyes widened. Kendrick turned with a dismissive stare, "What news are you talking about?" He asked, his face looking unperturbed.Evelyn paused, "You don't mean it… Why sound like you're not updated? Or is it what I'm thinking?" She asked. "What is it that you're thinking, Eve?... For goodness sake, several news articles come from the stations daily, this shouldn't be something to cause a scene about." He replied.Evelyn shook her head gently, her voice calm and gentle, "... I'm told that Ryder is dead! … He died while serving in jail." Kendrick didn't look surprised, he chuckled slowly. "That serves him right, then." He said in a sarcastic ton

    Evelyn stood up, her steps quickening, "I'll have to be at work, bro." She said in a flat tone. "Okay then, ensure that you're good." Kendrick responded. He sat staring at her till she closed the door behind her. "This is serious, me? Bring Louis here?" He kept asking himself as he walked up the stairs. As he entered his room, his gaze instinctively darted to the phone buzzing on his bedside table. He swiftly picked it up, his eyes widening in surprise. "Oh my goodness, I've been getting calls nonstop and I had no idea," he muttered to himself, a hint of embarrassment creeping into his voice. With a swift swipe of his finger across the screen, the ringing ceased, and a deep, resonant male voice sprang to life. "Sir, Kendrick... Kendrick... let's meet today at the Diamond Tower." The voice was low and urgent, sending a shiver down Kendrick's spine. "Why? so early?" He asked, "I just discovered something, sir… and would want you to be aware of it early enough." The ma

    When Kendrick arrived at Diamond Tower, the security in the environment welcomed him. He stepped out of his car and marched into the inn.“Welcome Sir,” A guard greeted as they opened and made way for him.Thud and two other young men were already spotted when he arrived.“You arrived just in time, Sir”. Thud exclaimed as they shook hands. “Please sir, here is Knox and Rich.” He said as he pointed at the two guys that sat close to him.Kendrick grinned gently, “Nice names there.” He said turning to the server, with a calm voice he asked, “Is the CEO in office today?”“No sir… She's not back from work.” The lady replied.Kendrick nodded, “Bring some drinks for them”. He ordered calmlyThe lady lowered her head slowly as she turned to bring the drinks.“Hey wait… you didn't even ask about what we cared for.” Thud exclaimed in a loud resounding voice.The lady paused, her eyes flickered, her voice soothing, “I am so sorry, I thought you all take his favorite drink”. She said.“His favori

    She kept her eyes on the road as she spoke. “The rangers who found him said the fall wasn’t as bad as it could’ve been.” She replied.“His parachute helped slow down the fall, and though he sustained some injuries, he’ll be fine.” she added.“We don’t know the full extent yet,” she added. “But we will after we speak to the doctor, I haven’t spoken to him yet.”Xavier nodded, relief washing over him, but the worry never fully subsided. “Alright, let's go to him.”Quinn nodded silently as she drove them to the hospital, stepping on the brakes and pulling the car to a halt in front of the large medical center. Xavier followed her inside, his gaze lingering on the towering building before they approached the receptionist, who guided them to Kendrick’s ward.Inside, Xavier found his friend lying in the bed. Kendrick’s left leg was wrapped in bandages and suspended. He slept soundly, his chest rising and falling with each breath, as his mouth took in and exhaled air from the oxygen tube gen

    She walked away quietly and sat by the edge of her bed. Meanwhile, Lisa ushered herself in.“We have to get that video.” She said, her resolve unwavering. “I knew I would never let myself go to Ramon no matter how drunk I must've been. I want to watch it and see for myself. I want to be sure about everything that happened.” She spoke with so much conviction. Lisa knew she must've given this a lot of thought.“So what if it's true? What do we do?” Lisa said, expressing her fears.“What if it's not true–” Bridgette countered.“Even though it's not— we still have to pay him off or he'll release it and I know my job would be at stack if it gets out.” Lisa said.“Well. I don't believe I kissed Ramon or had any affair with him… I feel it was staged. They did that to blackmail us and extort money from us.” she said boldly. “I don't know for you though but I think I have a vague memory of you serving yourself two di.cks. One up your mouth and the other up in your as.s.” Bridgette said, she h

    “Nothing. It just came out wrong.” Lisa shook her head, trying to deny what was already said but it was already too late, she already heard.“No it came out right! I heard you and I want to know!” She insisted.“Fine!” Lisa snapped. “He paid for the bills. This trip was his idea because he wanted you to have a little life and stop crying over your dead husband.” She confessed.Bridgette’s hand ran over her mouth as she gasped. “I thought this was girl's time out!” She said, looking gloomy, her eyes watery.“This was all a sham?!” She realized. “You didn't do this for us.” She said, her voice low and hurt.“You only agreed to do this because Xavier paid you to.” She added, the weight of disappointment and betrayal heavy in her heart—her voice shaky.“Of course not Bridgette. I did want to come on this trip not just for the money.” Lisa said in her defense.“Oh so he did pay you.” Bridgette confirmed her suspicion. “No wonder…” she sighed. “You never had time for me. I certainly didn't

    Bridgette sat under a shade by the poolside—basking, enjoying the warm summer sun on her delicate fair skin. The view was soothing and the breezy wind made the heat less effective. “I must say__” she started. “This trip isn't as bad as I thought it would be after all.” She commented. Her face glowing, beaming with smiles and satisfaction.The trip really did help her get over all the gloominess of the mansion and how much she missed her husband—she still missed him though but the trip has helped take away her mind from some of the pain.Lisa carried her cocktail, “Cheers to healing!” She raised her glass. “Cheers!” Bridgette clicked letting out a soft giggle then she took a sip.“I missed this part of you.” Lisa smiled, gulping her wine. “I'm glad you're finally alive!” She held her hand, squeezed it a little.Bridgette smiled, “Thanks for coming through.”Lisa smiled back with her eyes… she wish she could tell her it was all Xavier's idea and not hers. She was merely a tool while X

    “Oh my God!” Lisa squeaked, her hands flying to her mouth as she gasped.Her outburst caught everyone’s attention—Bridgette especially. Startled, she nearly spilled water all over herself.She stared at her phone's screen with shock in her eyes.“What is it Lisa?” She asked nonchalantly, rolling her eyes. She knew how dramatic her friend could be.“I can't believe I made a video of us last night.” She said, staring at her phone excitedly.“Let me see_” Bridgette leaned closer to her in order to have a look.Ramon glanced at the rearview immediately, his heart beating fast in his chest; he almost collided with an incoming vehicle.It almost happened!“Hey watch the road!” Bridgette screamed just in time for him to avoid the truck that was coming in front of them on its own lane.“Won't you watch where you're going?” She scolded, half yelling.“I'm sorry ma'am.” He apologized. His eyes falling between the rearview and the road… he wished he could see the video. His grip on the steering

    She gasped, finally blessed with her earnest desire, she started riding him while moaning in ecstasy.In the end,it was a high orgasmic sexual pleasure.Another man being led on by her act came to her, his boner… he slammed on her face. She wasn't pissed, she laughed maniacally and grabbed it, she spat on it_ hummed a few moans tones before taking it in her mouth. He groaned, his eyes shut.Both men were working her, she'd never had a threesome_ the feeling was thrilling. Bridget felt the heat of the moment as she watched her friend take on two men in the room.Her core heated and her insides ached, burning for similar passion. She gulped more content from the glass, each gulp with the intention of helping her get past this but it only made things worse. Her eyes squeezed as the content of the glass burned down her throat. She dropped the glass, thud! On the table… she staggered, losing herself… her eyes barely had a good visual.Ramon saw her staggering and rushed to her side to hel

    His man lover, Freddy, brought out the wine from the wine safe and popped it open. He giggled at the pop sound made from the cork on the wine's seal……Then poured some of its contents into two glasses. He gave Maverick one while he played with the other. He pulled himself on top of the table and sat there, his legs crossed. “A win for one is a win for all.” He smiled, raising the glass.“Cheers.” Their glasses clicked and they took a sip each. Maverick came closer, he smelt his face and smacked his butt, he giggled like a lady. Maverick finished the content of the entire glass and dropped it, —thud, on the table. He was ready for some serious business… he held him by the waist.He inhaled, tasting the lust in the air_ his nature tool, getting hardened underneath his pants.Freddy finished his own glass and dropped it gently on the table.“Come give me some.” Maverick said, his tone inviting and hoarse. A smug smile crept on Freddy's face, he loved to see him beg for attention.He d

    “That's a bad idea Lisa.” Bridgette slammed, shoving it off.“Think about it_” she went on, not backing down. “Something enticing for the eyes. Appetizers for the soul and body but we aren't eating them—No.” She cajoled, raising her index finger, she waved a no in the air.“Don't tell me you don't miss the days when Kendrick shoved his rod up your folded sheets.” She flattered, giggling. Her words were convincing and impairing. She got on the pole and wrapped her flexible, feminine legs around it, her arms grabbed it and she let her legs spin her around. She swirled and twirled on it, tilted back and balanced in the air, making stunts Bridgette felt were impossible… releasing her arms and letting her legs stay on the pole while she spun in all directions. Bridgette's eyes were intently watching her every move_ she must admit, she looked really sexy and fascinating on that pole. There was nothing missing, she did it like a pro–she watched in earnest amusement.She couldn't hide the

    “Is he scared you'd try to fight him off? Why the hurry?” Kendrick asked, not as surprised as he sounded.“No idea.” Xavier shrugged, exhaling sharply. “When he saw me the other day at the mansion_ the time I went to see Bridget? He was shocked to his bones and didn't seem pleased to see me at all.” Xavier explained.“He told me right there and then that you left him in charge so… in other words he was asking me to back off.”“That's if I ever had an intention of fighting over the properties with him.” he added, sarcasm in his tone, he flipped the pages of the file in his hand.“But there's no handwritten document that states I left him in charge.” Kendrick retorted, narrowing his eyes to avoid the piercing rays of the sun. “Yes_ even so. You controlled some of the Rogers assets and he stands as an heir.” Xavier explained.“Oh!” He realized.“Gosh, it's so hot up here_ and windy too.” Kendrick muttered, away from the subject matter.
