I did” He assured her while he went ahead to watch the event that was unfolding right before his eyes, he was now married to this woman and no matter what, he had to learn to love her because without her, he would still be eating from the slump with no one to help.

It was so spacious that Isaac had never been to any place like that, the walls were painted with a rich cream color which gave the room a rich and inviti

    Isaac woke up the next day and was stunned to see Evelyn had packed up her outages and now she was at the table, applying some make up on her face. “Good morning” She noticed that he was awake through the mirror while he tried to stretch himself up and seeing her dressed up, he was also stunned. “Eve? Why are you all dressed up?”“Did you forget that we were going on a trip today, but I need to rush to the office first and sort out a few things with my secretary, that way, I wouldn't have to worry about anything else while we are away”“Oh! Okay” He snorted out as he watched her rose to her feet, clutched onto her hand bag and strode off. He could tell that she was angry over his behavior last night, so Isaac decided to go downstairs and make her something to eat, perhaps he could make it up to her through a nice meal. After a few minutes that she was gone, a knock came through the door and he was stunned to see her mother. She stare at him from head to toe before rolling her eyes

    Isaac went ahead to set out the table for both women and when he was through dishing out the meal, he immediately called to their attention. “Breakfast has been served! ” He called out but there did not seem to be any response from either of them. “Mom! You said you were hungry, Isaac made something really nice, so let's join him for breakfast”“A low life like him, what can he prepare?”“You will be surprised at how good his food taste, trust me Mom, Isaac is a good cook” Evelyn tries to convince her but she was reluctant for a while before she finally yielded. “Fine! Let go over to the dining, it is not like I have any other choice” She grunts and stride towards the dining room but her eyes widened in shock at the sight before her. Isaac had made some sampled eggs, bagels and oatmeal that was topped with some fruits and nut, the aroma was nothing like she had ever perceived before and she could not bring herself to believe that Isaac truly prepared this. “Are you saying that he m

    Isaac stepped into the luxurious store and went ahead to shop for a few other items. He first got what Evelyn would be needing, that way, we wouldn't feel inconvenient when she recalls it. He scurried down to the tampon section as his eyes caught hold of Amy who seemed to be there without Evan and just when he was about to avoid her, she made the first contact. “Who do we have here! Our errand boy!”“Amy hi! I am kind of in a haste and doesn't have time to banter words with you”“And does it look like to you I have the time for that?” Her eyes trail to his outfit from head to toe and her gaze could not help but be filled with admiration. “Looks like you have upgraded your wardrobe with some fake designer, that is a good starting point”She went ahead to tease him but Isaac knew that Evelyn was going to get anxious if she had to wait for him for a while and he is nowhere to be found so he went ahead to ignore Amy while picking some Tampon of a product.

    They both flew back to town and even while on their way home, Evelyn wouldn't speak to Isaac, although she loved this man, but she was so furious at him. The next day Evelyn got dressed in a luxurious leather suit and set out a matching set for him. “Are you off to work?” He asked as he rub his bleary eyes seeing her all set for work. But as usual, she refuse to respond to him. “Dont you think that it is too early to be at work by six in the morning, I thought we were going to be driving together together?”.She rolled her eyes at him, her jaws tightened but manage to speak. ”Here is an outfit that I picked out for you, get dress and be at work by eight, I will be introducing you to all the board members”“How about I make you breakfast first before you leave?” He was hoping there was a way that he could make amends with her.

    George stopped walking and so did Isaac, he turn around to see if there was anyone around, but hopefully there wasn't before he spoke. “Mr. Eva is a good friend to the construction manager of our company Mr. Liam, most people expected that he was going to get married to Ms. Evelyn considering how close they were but she rejected his proposal and I guess it was you she love”George explained as Isaac listened carefully. “So Mr. Liam had given the project to Evan because they were close?”“Yes Sir, and no doubt that be was getting a cut from it”“I want to see all the sites he has handled over the year's and list of other small construction companies that are also capable of handling such deal”“Yes Sir” George nodded and they started walking again until they got to the large office where everyone had their own desk to occupied, no doubt they were waiting for him as they all were on their feet with their hands clasped together. “Everyone, this is Mr. Isaac the new CEO of our most repu

    Liam was fuming with rage and yet he decided to be calm with her. He dated her for two years and if there was anything he knew about her was how to get on her good side. “Listen Evelyn, I know that we did not end things on a good note, but those times when I was with you were the best day of life and it is fine that I was not the one you chose to spend the rest of your life with, but don't you think that it is too cruel for you to take away my job also”“I am not taking your job and neither is Isaac, I promised him that I won't interrupt with his job, he only wants to review the projects that you were in charge of and untill then, I can't interrupt”“So you expect me to just sit still and wait for him to ask for my resignation letter?” His hand slowly drifted closer to hers on the desk as he caressed her hand softly but she immediately pulled way. “Tell me Liam, have you been handling the project in any illegal ways?”“No! Come on Eve! You know me, I would never do anything that wil

    Robert began pacing around as sweat began to drip from his forehead, no doubt that he was nervous and was trying all his possible best not to let it show. “You are bluffing Isaac, there has never been any fraudulent case between the senator and I. You have a record on and you are hoping to see me bluff out a crime that I did not commit, I am sorry, but it is not going to happen. Not today, I am not going to fall for your tricks!”He exclaimed but Isaac signals to one of his men who handed out a file to Robert.

I just got an information right now that Robert is about leaving the country through a shipment, you should hurry now or we might never get the opportunity to catch up with him”“That is strange, for someone like him, I thought that he was going to settle his score wit me first before leaving, if he is leaving now, then that means that there is definitely something wrong”“Then what do you suggest that we do at a moment like this?”“Mobilize the boys, but first we need to o find out his routine and how many of his men that are on the ship with him, the last thing that we need is making another mistake like the previous time. We lost a lot of men and I do not want that to repeat itself”“Alright Boss, I will work on that and get back to you” Noah responded before the call ended.

We can't do that, all the subsidiaries do have their functions”“Yes they do, but there are some of them that we can survive without untill we are able to stand back on our feet else this company might lose it foot”He suggested as

    Robert lowered his head and after a while, he spoke again. “I am not certain that all you have said right now is true, but even if it was, it does not change the fact that Isaac was there and watched his sister drown. It was his job to protect her, his only job and he failed woefully at it, no matter what you chose to say, I can't forgive him that easily”“So what do you want to do, carry that burden of hatred for the rest of your life, are you not tired of this war with your son. His death isnt going to bring back Jessica and you know it, why going through all this.

She was filled with so much pain!”Robert lowered his head while he tried not to show his weakness, emotions had overwhelmed him.

Robert widened his eyes so hard because he could not believe what just happened right now.“Clara! How dare you raised your hand at me, do you realize what you just did?”“I should be the one asking you that, how dare you try to murder my son, he is my only son and I think that I have had enough of yo
