The flight back home was in absolute silence. Elvis clenched his teeth and was lost for words. The pangs of betrayal hit him from different angles. He was raging within with anger, as the plane landed.Elvis didn't wait for anyone as their convoy arrived, he walked briskly to one of the vehicles as he entered slamming the door. He held his tears from falling as he looked ahead. The rest of the crew got into other vehicles as the driver drove off. As soon as the vehicle pulled into the driveway in his apartment Dennis hopped down from the vehicle as he raced towards the door.Sonia who just finished her bath changed into a new outfit, she hummed her favorite song as she packed her hair. She had no idea of the event she was about to face. Elvis ran into his room as he dragged his tie. He pulled out his drawer as he looked at the gun in it. He pulled it out as he touched the cold steel. Elvis then kicked the things around his room as he couldn't suppress his anger. He smashed the mirro
Elvis arrived at his house. He realized Sonia had gone as he heaved a sigh. He went into his work room to cross-check copies of the form. Indeed he realized they were fake. Having enough bad news in one day,he pulled out medicine from his cabinet. He hurriedly drank the sleeping pills.Natasha who was still lingering around the house contacted a cleaner to Fix Elvis' messed up room. Everywhere seemed quiet. The sky darkened as the birds chirped. Elvis fell into a deep sleep.The next morning Elvis woke up on his desk in the work room. The hot rays of the sun stung his eyes as he stared into them directly. He squinted as he stretched himself. Memories of yesterday returned, flushing into his mind. He got up feeling a bit calm.He strolled to his room as he opened it in amazement. He rang the bell for the butler.He appreciated how clean the room was as he heard a knock on the door. “Come in” Elvis spoke boldly. “Good morning Sir” The butler who heard the bell and hurried to his room
“You may be seated Mr Elvis. Mr Dennis begins with your statement. Repeat what you said earlier” A director spoke boldly. Elvis turned around as he sat into the chair next to him. He randomly took deep breaths to regulate his breathing pace.Dennis stands up as he walks close to the table of the directors. “Like I said earlier, Mr Elvis here has been stealing paltry sums from the company and I have come with clear evidence” Dennis spoke boldly with a serious look on his face.He moved forward as he pulled some forms from his file, distributing them amongst the board of directors.“What are we looking at Mr Dennis? '' one of the directors asked as he picked up the paper to see its contents.“That is the cheque with the withdrawal amount of ten million dollars. Mr Elvis had paid for the release of his ex wife, Sonia. Who had been kidnapped” Dennis spoke comfortably.Elvis adjusted in his seat as he looked on, staring at Dennis. He knew Dennis was a cunning man and would do anything to
The room is quiet for a while as the Directors begin their argument again. Some in favor of Elvis even after his proclamation. Some are outrightly against him.Natasha climbs towards the board as she tries to defend Elvis.Elvis is seated calmly while all of this takes place. Sonia strolls to his side as she whispers. “This is the time for your perfect downfall after leaving me for a slut!” she spoke with vile. Elvis looked at her as he smiled saying“Do not rejoice yet. Things could take a different turn from your expectation” Elvis said. Sonia moved away from him as she pondered on what he meant. While the chaos in the room Sonia pulled Dennis to the side. “What is the matter Sonia?” Dennis asked in a low voice as he was infuriated with the way Sonia pulled him out. “Do you think this will work?” Sonia asked with fear. Dennis smiled as he responded“Even the messiah himself can not save Elvis from this mess” Dennis affirmed.“Relax, Sonia, we've got this,” he said, patting her s
The car drove into Elvis' house, the butler stood outside as he waited for them to come down, he just finished watching the news and it was not something to be proud of to see.The car banged, as Natasha got out of the car, it was obvious she and Elvis just had a small argument.“Ma'am?” The butler called but she ignored him as she walked into the house banging the front door.The aura of the house immediately changed, everyone would behave to avoid the couple in order not to take part in the transfer of aggression.Elvis got out of the car as he tried to take his briefcase but left it for Butler. He was not done talking and shebhad no right whatsoever to just storm out of the car just like that.He walked past the butler, ignoring his greetings, today was not like every other day. “Good evening sir?” The butler greeted but Elvis was long gone as he walked up the stairs heading for his room.By the time he got in, Natasha was taking off her shoes in anger, kicking them away.“What wa
****Tears filled her eyes as it was about to stream down her cheeks then he immediately said,“I did love her but now…. Natasha, you're the one I love now.” He said cupping her face in his eyes as she stared at him lovingly.She was lost for words to say or to quantify her joy right now,“And I love you too” she muttered to his hearing as she wrapped her arms around him.“But Ten million?” She said, as she broke the hug. She knew Dennis was a slug but didn't know he was a certified thief as well, “Well, I did it for her safety even after all she did to him, I'm still surprised she is still blinded by the lies he told her.” He says, tucking her hair behind her ears.“So did you really take that money from the company's pocket?” Her heart skipped a beat as she prayed that he didn't, if not that would mean problem and not even her father can help him.She would never forgive Dennis for trying not to take advantage of his good heart.Elvis burst to a pearl of small laughter.“Of course,
Elvis turned to the butler, a side of him was just as confused as Natasha was.“I don't understand? Why? Did anything suspicious happen?” Elvis asked as he stood up from his bed, walking towards the butler who had their folded clothes, after he was done in the laundry.He was bringing this to their bedroom when he heard that they wanted to call Gunther.After finding out that Gunther might be an informant for Dennis, there was no way a time would come when he wouldn't betray the trust Elvis had for him and if he knew something, he was going to say something to stop the tragedy from happening.“Why? Did Gunther do something of recent that made you think he would go up against Elvis? Natasha asked, because Gunther knew a lot of things and if he was working with Dennis then, that would be a dangerous move because definitely Dennis would find ways to stop their plans of exposing him to the board of directors.The butler then dropped the folded clothes in their dresser, then turned to the
Elvis was silent, Natasha had a point, Dennis was a beast and if he could do that to Sonia whom he claimed he loved so much, he battered her and messed up her mind and now, she's simply under his control no matter what Dennis does to her she would still run back to him. Sometimes it makes him wonder if Dennis had something against Sonia that's keeping her glued to him.“Well? Answer me?” Natasha demanded, breaking into his thoughts, he turned as he ran his hands through his hair, he sat down on the bed, “So what do you think we should do? As it stands now this is the only way and besides Gunther has earned his trust and he believes that he has turned against me.” He muttered loud enough for the butler to hear , the butler knew he had to excuse himself, he immediately turned and then left through the door closing it behind him.“Are you sure he wouldn't spill, how sure is that Gunther is still on our side.” She asked but he smirked.“We have something Dennis would be desperately look
