They sat at the table. Madam Felicia could now believe that Alex was not making up stories. She was surprised to see Jamal after a long time. She was even surprised that Jamal could come at them, meaning he was very serious about coming to arrest them. If they were not smart enough to escape from the house. Even as they came the second time to the house, they had to pack things quickly so they could leave before he caught up with them. They would have been taken to the police station. " Jamal is not going to back out of this, especially now that he has some information," Madam Theresa said. " Yes, you are right. Anyone else aware of this new location?" Martins asked.They exchanged glances, all of them answering in the negative. " I can not believe that a silly girl like Clara would do this. Clara has done enough and I blame Martins for having chances but would do nothing to her" Madam Felicia said with bitterness" She was faster than us, we needed to wake up and smell the coffee
She rushed out of bed. She was grateful that nothing had happened to her. Alex began to prepare for work. She rushed out to work. When she got to work, she saw Clara and got a way of telling her that she failed. She stuck her tongue out at her quickly, no one saw her do that. She got closer to Clara and they both exchanged looks. She kept a normal expression. Alex was certain that no one knew who was behind the information leaking out to Jamal's stepfamily, they all thought that Clara was the one being playful and needed to tell the truth. She got inside her office and saw the door open. She stayed outside to peep inside. She found nothing. She got in anyway hoping nothing was amidst.While she settled down to work. She got a call. She picked it up. " Any information?" Madam Theresa asked." No, not yet" she answered." Keep me updated," Madam Theresa said." Always" she replied. She crossed her fingers to always give Madam Theresa any information she found useful. She was still
Mrs. Alcantara thought about Melanie and decided to go see her. Since the last time, Melanie was at their house where she told them that she was pregnant. She decided to go to her house to see how she was doing. She did not want to tell her husband because he might not let her go. The last time, Melanie asked her to leave her house but she felt that this time, it would be different because of what happened the last time Melanie visited them. She got dressed already. She did not want her husband to talk her into not going.Mr. Alcantara wondered why she was all dressed. He does not remember any plans of them going somewhere. He kept quiet waiting for when she would tell him where she was going. She finished up and went to meet Mr. Alcantara. He pretended as though he did not see her come to where he was. She went beside him and sat down. " I want to go see Melanie. I feel I should go see her, it has been a long I saw her and you know she needs someone like me around her" she said
Madam Theresa sat in the sitting room with the rest. She had called Dave in. She wanted to keep Alex out of the eyes of Nathan, Martin, and Madam Felicia. They would only be seeing more of Dave. She wanted to protect her niece. They had kicked against the idea of bringing Dave for Melanie but they had to agree to let him do it. Dave had taken Melanie out for a stroll. He had a good time with her. However, she was uncomfortable and kept on mentioning that she wanted to go home. Dave told everyone everything that transpired between them. " She will not be an easy nut to crack," he said " Do what you have to" madam Felicia said. " And your niece should be smart and keep up. I do not want anyone ruining my plans" Dave said. He turned and looked at Madam Theresa. Madam Theresa nodded her head. She had to tell Alex not to mess up their plans. Whatever Melanie was carrying has to be removed and it has to be done fast. " I want us to go check our house. You know no matter how we run.
Jamal was getting ready for work. Melanie was still in bed but then she woke up. He usually left the house sometimes when she was still asleep. She woke up and smiled at him. He gave a reassuring smile. He dressed and got his bag. He went to the dresser to take his wristwatch when he saw the bracelet. He admired it. He had wanted to ask her how she got them but he thought she might have been the one that got them for herself. He went to her and kissed her on her forehead. She smiled and kissed him on the cheeks. He left the house for his office. He got to the office and saw some people already waiting for him. He felt it was too early for anyone to be waiting for him. He felt uneasy at first. Then he got to his office and saw that it was the guys he had told to keep an eye on his stepfamily house that had come to the office. He wondered if anything was wrong as they came way too early. They got seated. " Why are you here so early? Anything unusual?" He asked them. " Yes sir. S
Melanie took a walk outside to cool her head. Jamal asked Dennis to make sure that she was not alone.She saw that she was being followed but she ignored them. She sat at a place and began to think of the possible things that could be wrong with Jamal. She could not come up with anything reasonable. She went back home. When she got home, She turned on the television to watch it but could not concentrate on it. She turned it off. She headed out again and this time, she went to her parents' house. She got there and fell into Mrs. Alcantara's arms. Mrs. Alcantara took her in. She could not tell what was wrong with Melanie but she knew that Melanie was not okay. "What is wrong?" Mrs. Alcantara asked her, sitting her down on a chair. " It is Jamal, he has been acting strange and I can not tell what is going on with him nor will he say anything," she said in a rush. Mrs. Alcantara asked her to calm down. She didn't offer much because she felt it was work stress that was getting a lar
The office was filled. It was not in Jamal's office. They had a meeting. All of the team members of Jamal's company were in the meeting. Jamal's advisor said to him that a ceremony should be hosted in appreciation and acknowledgment of all the times that he had gotten in his lifetime. He has wanted to turn it down. But his advisor said it was time to make him a celebrant while he was alive. He also added that his staff deserves promotion as well.He gave in to it. Alex rushed into her office. She had just finished the meeting where the activities were being discussed. She thought they were kidding about hosting an event.She picked up her phone and called Madam Theresa. " Hello Aunt, Jamal is hosting an event. I wanted you to know about it" she said into the phone." Yes, so did Nathan heard from a source there. We are hoping we make a mark at that event" she said." It is an indoor event. No one outside of the workers in the company should be aware because there will be promotions
The hall was big enough to accommodate so many people. It was spacious and well-decorated. The staff of Jamal's company began to turn up. Jamal was at home. He was still waiting for Melanie to finish up. He wanted the both of them to go together. He waited for her until she was done with her makeup. She checked herself and saw how beautiful she looked. She went to meet Jamal in the car and they both left the house for the event. They got there because it was just a company event. The faces there were all familiar. The hall was beautifully decorated, and the lighting too added color to the hall. They got inside. They were offered a special section of the hall to be in. Jamal shook hands with all of his team members who he had worked with and the ones he is still working with. He sat down with Melanie by his side. He felt happy that he had given in to the advice that he host an event in honor of himself and his staff. Madam Theresa is waiting for the rest in the sitting room. Mart
