“How can I crack this?” Amanda bit her lips slightly with her eyes fixed on the files in her hands.She reluctantly flipped to the next page looking depressed. It sounded ridiculous because they have finally gotten the evidence yet it was hard to solve the coding.“15, 14. 1, 21, 7, 21, 19, 20. 2023. 13, 1, 4, 1, 13.” She continued calling out the weird digits wondering what could be hiding behind it.Soon, there was a knock at the door and she put the files away.“Who’s it?” Her voice came up.Mr. Leonard walked into her office and they exchanged pleasantries.“I assumed you are still here.” He curled his lips.“Were you looking for me?” She raised a brow.“Of course.” His lips pursed. “We are visiting the new land we bought for our new structure, have you forgotten?” He questioned her rhetorically and she rolled her eyes, looking tired.“Oh, my goodness.” She returned to her desk. “I forgot, I have been so busy lately that organizational affairs keep slipping from my mind.” She said
“Madam Pia asks that you meet her on the terrace,” Stewart informed him courteously, and with a short nod, he walked over to the terrace.The cool breeze flushed on his face and he was welcomed by the intoxicating smell produced by the water flowers, he cleared his throat nervously and Grandma Pia faced him having an inexpressive facial expression.“You are here.” She was calm.“I will go first.” He walked closer. “I apologize for the mess I created.” He lowered his face to the ground.“It’s already fixed,” she sighed heavily while facing him. “If you met me earlier, I can’t imagine what I would have done to you.” She pursed her lips.“All these incidents are inevitable and this one was creepy because I couldn’t tell where the leak came from. Do we have a spy in Rich Hospital?” He pressed his lips against the other and Grandma Pia shook her head.“No, rather we have someone patiently waiting for our lapses to expose us to the public.” She assumed with certainty.“I have a feeling that
The black Benz rode inside the penitentiary and gradually stopped at the entrance, the officer checked their plate number and the driver’s license, but he curled away when he saw the person sitting in the back seat. He signaled his colleague who was at the opening point, and soon the gate opened and the driver drove in.“Who is that?” His colleague walked up to him after seeing how frozen he was and had no intention of returning to his seat.“It’s the boss, Richester.” His lips trembled and his colleague closed his mouth with his hands while his eyes widened.Raymond parked the car properly in the garage while Richester strolled into the prison yard with James.“Boss!” One of the prisoners saw him and was startled.“Boss?” As he walked into the hallway which had prison cells at both sides, they continued shouting and hailing him.“Boss!” Their voices echoed in the entire hallway as they were surprised and excited to see him.Richester waved at them and returned the gesture with a smil
A hard slap rested on Damien’s face, he wasn’t surprised and he didn’t support his cheek with his hand.Madam Harriet’s eyes were burning in fury. “Did I hear her correctly?” Her eyes shot daggers at him as she spat on his face.“Explain yourself, you clodpole!” She yelled at his face, all this time, Damien remained speechless.“Can’t you speak or the cat got your tongue?” Stella sneered at his face.“Honestly, I - -” He stopped halfway, having no explanation for his mess. He faced Stella, with his last resort in his mind.“Are you sure you saw us kissing?” Damien questioned, fringing anxiety and Stella scoffed in disbelief.“What?” She almost gasped. “Do you mean I have turned blind all of a sudden?” Stella questioned intently, looking dissatisfied.“I don’t mean that.” He paused. “It’s just that you must have seen it wrongly since you were stressed.” Damien figured, curling his lips.Madam Harriet haven a sharp sigh. “What is going on here?” She crossed her arms, watching them.“Loo
“Have you been trailing that woman?” Don Maximo asked Madam Harriet curtly and she nodded almost immediately.“Yes.” She began. “I planted a tail beside her. She hasn’t been suspicious these days.” Madam Harriet explained.“You are becoming better.” Don Maximo’s eyes shifted away from Madam Harriet to the door, as it pulled open. Stella stepped in.“What is she doing here?” Madam Harriet panicked.“Didn’t I tell you we will use your daughter too?” He sneered at her face. “Oh! You think I was kidding?” He spilled with a hitch of mockery in his voice.Madam Harriet pumped her fist in annoyance while Stella behaved as if she never saw her mother. That was exactly what the big boss wanted, he knew they were both ambitious and competitive, so he was eager to watch mother and daughter fighting over rights and benefits.“But I - -” Madam Harriet made a comeback but was shunned by Don Maximo’s hand in the air.It only made her look stupid and Stella smirked under her breath.“What’s the repor
“Who are you?” The elderly woman, Mrs. Amos pushed her children behind her as if they were kids.She had three kids, a junior boy who looked like a growing teen, a tall male who looked like a high school adult, and a senior lady who was dressed in a worn-out suit, she was a full-grown adult. She seems like the elder one among her siblings. These were the family of Mr. Amos who has been sentenced to jail for life after embezzling government funds and murdering a whole household.“Do we know you?” The senior daughter questioned anxiously after a brief silence.“Can you spare us some minutes?” Richester approached them with his hands tucked in his trouser pocket.Mrs. Amos dragged her daughter to her corner, looking cold and annoyed.“We owe you nothing. Leave us alone.” She gritted her teeth in anger. “I told you not to communicate with strangers, even if your dad is no longer here, we must obey whatever he says.” She mumbled disgustingly at her children and they lowered their heads.“A
“I have little or no time for this, Damien.” Stella batted her lashes at him, using the fork to pick her meal.“I thought we should do this since it has been a while.” Damien curled his lips. “Aren’t you happy to be with me?” He raised a brow.“Why should I?” She hissed. “I have so much work to tend to.” She informed him curtly.“Babe,” he grabbed her hand. She wanted to pull away but reluctantly played along. “I know I have done terrible things to you in the past but we are a couple.” He began with a sweet voice. “Please, I want us to get together again. Is there something I should do for you?” “Anything.” He added impatiently and she blushed.“Well - -” She rolled her eyes above, as though she was thinking while he focused his gaze on her.“You know what I love the most, don’t you?” She wiggled her brows and he pouted his lips, looking so childish.“I’m all ears.” He replied.“I need money.” She paused, counting her fingers. “How does 7 million dollars sound?” She raised a sly brow
“I don’t want to do this with you,” Richester said walking towards his hotel room, Amanda didn't intend to leave. It was obvious that she came for what she had in mind and she wasn’t leaving until he accepted her.“No.” She retorted.“I thought you were annoyed and angry with me?” He scoffed, sliding the card on the access board. She followed him into his room. “What’s all these, Amanda?” He spat at her face in annoyance.She was ruining his mission, unintentionally.“Recently, you have suddenly become a playboy. How about we play together?” She curled her lips, approaching him.He got nervous and started walking backward.“I’m not asking for an apology for your last action. All I need is you. I want you to be mine.” They stumbled on the soggy bed and she laid above him, he swallowed hard.“You are on me.” He struggled to say, seriously avoiding her sharp gaze.“I know and I don’t intend to leave.” She whispered flirtatiously, stroking his chest.“Amanda - -” He began but the system o

Before his laptop finished booting, the police van already gained access to the mansion. Siren sounds could be heard from the main house as Raymond and Seven rushed in, looking nervous.“Boss, it’s the police,” Raymond announced impatiently.“Police? Who called them?” He questioned anxiously but got no response, his eyes wandered around until he noticed that someone was missing.“Stella! It’s Stella.” He assumed correctly.“We can’t run away, after all, we didn’t kill anyone so no need to hide.” Mada Pia began. “Let’s go out and face them.” She suggested.Richester was a bit reluctant, he was afraid that the news might drain his reputation again. He was skeptical and cautious since the system was no longer with him but Amanda grabbed his arm and let out a reassuring smile.“Don't worry, I’m with you.” Maybe from now on, he doesn’t need a system. He already had one.They strolled out of the mansion to meet the police officers who were in the yard.As expected, news spread like wildfire
“Father, this is the man I want to marry.” Amanda’s voice resonated in the dining room.She was having lunch with her father and beside her was her fiancee, Richester. He composed himself like a man who has always been serious in life. He would do everything possible to make himself look presentable in front of his future father-in-law.“Isn't he the same man that you disagreed to have an affair with?” Mr. Conrez asked cryptically.He was discharged a week ago and Amanda didn’t hesitate to share the good news with him.“He is.” She placed a palm on his hand. “But that was in the past, I love him.” She said seriously.“Young man, do you love my daughter?” Mr. Conrez asked, dropping the fork and knife. He focused on Richester, trying to observe him.Amanda was his only family and he didn’t joke with her.“Yes, sir. I love her yesterday, today, and forever.” He said and changed the pattern, he placed his hand on hers and squeezed it gently. Amanda blushed.“That’s a relief.” But then, he
“Get out of here, you fool!” Theo, the general officer yelled at Don Maximo and Charles as he pushed them into the cafeteria hall.Adams, Lucky, and Jones were in the queue waiting to be served their lunch.“Whose turn is it to wash the lavatory?” Theo questioned with a thunderous voice.“Prisoner 940 and 941!” The hungry and grumpy-looking prisoners shouted at the top of their voices.Since the departure of Richester, there were no longer rankings in the prison as many feared to sit in that position. It needed someone with a strong mind and a good connection.Everything sailed smoothly and steadily in the prison but for Trevor’s lackeys, they had it hot.“What are you waiting for?” Theo’s voice came up, staring at them disdainfully.“Sir, we haven't eaten any - -” Charles hadn’t finished his statement when a hot slap rested on his face, he supported his cheek with his hands looking shocked at the general’s action.“Do you want me to repeat myself?” He raised a scornful brow at them, t
The engagement between Richester and Amanda spread like wildfire as everyone was anxious to know more about their love story and more update on their next plan. He was rarely seen around women thus engaging one came as a shock to them.He stood in his office in Rich Hotel, the nameplate having his name on it was positioned on his desk. Shortly after a knock, Glenn walked in.“Good morning, boss. We have some visitors.” Glenn informed him politely.“Who are they?” He asked before turning over to her, all these while he had been staring into the bustling city through the panoramic view.“They refused to say who they were.” Glenn shook her head.After a long silence, he exhaled heavily.“Let them in.” He sat down on his seat and crossed his legs, Glenn bowed and left.Richester noticed her lingering affection for him and shunned her immediately so all the feeling she had for him turned into respect as she had to mind her lane if ever she wanted to keep her job.A few minutes after she lef

That was the only way she could avert her anger.“You shouldn’t raise your voice at me! Do that to your stupid lawyer and low brains!” Stella cried out at her mother. “If you hadn’t forced me to divorce, at least I would have managed him till the end! But what did
“There is a problem, boss,” Harold said, his hands sweating as he flashed his laptop screen at Damien’s face. Damien looked at the laptop seriously.“How come? Who bought it and cleared our debt?” His brows furrowed.“The investor's status is incognito and can’t be spotted.” Harold sighed heavily, rubbing his forehead.“That’s good. We got our funds back and cornered Stella perfectly.” He began. “Then, we have to take their mansion and last properties to clear the remaining debts.” He said conclusively and Harold nodded.Madam Harriet and Stella walked into Mandela Hospital with confident strides, after bailing herself out of jail, she couldn’t wait to claim her hospital and start proceeding with her plans.“What’s my missed schedule?” Madam Harriet asked, dancing her fingers on the counter.“Schedule? Who are you please?” The receptionist at the front desk questioned while batting her lashes.“You - -” That was when it dawned on them that the entire nurse at the front desk had been c
“I’m here to - -” Stella hadn’t finished her statement when she saw some nurses rolling the hospital bed away from the jail area.Her eyes spotted someone familiar on the bed thus she left the front desk and rushed over to the nurses.“Wait.” She held the edge of the bed and the nurses stopped, wondering what was wrong with her.It was an emergency case.“Mum?” Her eyes dropped dead and became lifeless. “What happened to my mother?” She questioned angrily, staring at the nurses and one officer who was following them. “Did you forcefully kill my mother or something? What happened to my mother?” Her voice could be heard in the entire precinct as she was sounding like an insane pregnant woman.“Madam Stella, be calm. Your mother only fainted.” The officer explained to her rashly.“Only fainted? Did you call that only? How many times have you beaten her up to confess what she hasn't done?” She transferred her losses and anger at him, staring at him in disgust.The officer shook his head.
“Honey, honey,” Stella rushed into the mansion, sweating and breathing heavily. She almost bumped into Damien in the lobby.He had an inexpressive expression.“Honey, we are in trouble.” She panicked.He darted his eyes at her for a while before sighing.“Trouble? What have you done this time?” He asked, walking to the living room.“I didn’t cause anything, it's just that - - the thing is that - - you see, the problem is - -” She stuttered, unable to come clean to her husband. She was ashamed to tell him that she borrowed money from loan sharks and also afraid that he might make jest of her or insult her.“If you don’t have anything to say, then don’t disturb my peace because I’m in a hurry.” He sneered disgustingly.She was annoyed but she was in no position to get angry with him because he was her only hope. He had money. He had funds somewhere so he could help elevate her family since they needed it.“You see, I borrowed some funds from a loan shark and right now, the man is on my
