“How dare that stupid chairman do this to me? Lily fumed, her insides boiling with rage

“Ouch! take it easy, do you want to worsen my injuries? She glared at maid using a warm towel to massage her swollen face

“ I put so much into preparing for that partnership? But what did I get in return?”She asked, not exactly expecting any answer

“I would never forget this day in my life, do you know how many of my influential friends were in attendance? I had to pay some to come witness our big day, only for us to end up like this”Mike lamented, as he dapped the ice bag he was holding on his own swollen face

“You know in my my 30 years on earth, this has got to be the worst day of my life, all these while, I thought you telling me about your pregnancy was the worst but….”Mike cautioned himself immediately and snapped his mouth shut

“It's enough, we have to think of a way forward, lamenting won't bring the partnership back, we have to think!”Miranda snapped, glaring at Mike

“Mom, what's t

    A few minutes later,Mike and Lily were on their way to A and U groups, and Mike decided to ask. Lily the question that had been on his mind “Babe, since we decided to postpone our wedding because of what happened, why don't we fix another date?”He asked, his attention fixed on the road Lilys face fell flat instantly as Mike's words sank into her ears. Getting married to Mike was the last thing on her mind,as all her plans had been centered on getting the partnership and also getting the chairman to be romantically involved with her, that was why she hastily brought up the idea of the wedding postponement after they were thrown out of the event . Mike had agreed at first , but she didn't expect that he would talk about fixing another date the same day they decided to postpone it. “Mike, you know… “Lily began, but on a second thought, refrained from saying what she was about to, as a thought crossed her mind. Meeting with the chairman was 50 /50 and she wasn't even sure if he woul

    Lily's face scrunched up in disgust as she glared at the two people standing a few meters in front of her. “What the fuck are you both doing here?!” Lily yelled, still finding it hard to believe that it was truly Andrew and Benita she was seeing. “Have you both lost your minds? Of all places, you choose to bring your stinking self's to A and U group?” she sneered, staring at the both of them condescendingly “We are actually here for a purpose Lily” Benita said calmly not quite understanding why lily was flaring up. “What stupid purpose? I know why you are here”Lily snapped, her voice laced with disdain “Really?” Benita asked, furrowing her eyebrows In confusion , as she wondered how Lily got to know about her contract with A and U. But she didn't think deeply into it, “Maybe she might have gotten the information from some other source, after all the signing process would be aired and everyone would eventually get to know about it.”She thought “Yes, you are right Lily, we are he

    “What!” Lily let out a loud shriek, her phone slipping off her hands. “What the hell just happened? Did I see clearly?” Mike asked, his eyes wide agape In shock He picked up Lily's phone and replayed the video, confirming what he just saw “This is real Lily, we got kicked out, but they allowed those bunch of trash to enter without any obstructions, impossible!”He yelled, pacing around restlessly as he muttered incoherent words under his breath.“They even bowed to them! Can you imagine?” Mike went out and on, blabbing in annoyance “Stop it Mike, stop it! don't ever play that video again, Infact give me my phone, I'm deleting it right now!” Lily said, snatching her phone from Mike's hand. She closed her eyes, deleting the video because she didn’t want to see it again, but when she opened her eyes, she realized she had pressed the wrong button, immediately the part where the guards bowed to Andrew and Benita showed, causing her to let out another ear piercing scream. She flung her

    As they drove home, Lily was unusually quiet and that got Mike's attention“Babe what's the problem you are not saying anything? What's on your mind?” Mike asked,as he flickered his gaze to Lily. Lily heaved a deep sigh, gently massaging her temple “There’s nothing much on mind, I'm just thinking of a way to teach those bastards a lesson that they would never forget in a hurry” Lily replied absentmindedly, her mind running wild with different thoughts. “You mean those two idiots? The pauper and the pauperess?” Mike asked mockingly Lily raised her eyebrows questioningly,a small smile crossing her face “Is there any word like that? Anyways I'm planning on meeting up with up with Mr. Vain, I need to discuss something important with him”she announced “Wait! The Mr. Vain we all know? Babe, what do you plan on discussing with him? That man is a very dangerous man, I heard he sleeps with anything in skirt, he's extremely dangerous and it's risky to go meet with him ”Mike said, his voice

    She continued, her voice barely above a whisper “This is what I have been praying for all these while, but now, It's here, I can't help but feel like a scam, I feel like I betrayed my friend” Benita said, as tears brimmed at the corner of her eyes. Andrew furrowed his eyebrows In surprise “No, you are not a scam Benita and you didn't betray anyone . You got this contract because you deserved it, you worked so hard for it, nothing more, nothing less.” Andrew said assuredly “I know but… “There are no buts Benita, Your company has huge potentials and there is no one else that deserves this more than you do”“But it was meant to be Lily's, and she thinks I stole it from her” Benita said as a stray tear rolled down her cheeks “Benita, you didn't steal anything from anyone, I want you to accept that you got this contract because you worked so hard for it, so you deserve it.”Andrew said soothingly “Lily was the one who let the opportunity slip from her grasp, and that has got nothing t

    Beep! Benita dived for her phone without delay as soon she heard the sound of a text notification. Her face stretched into a broad smile as she scrolled through her phone, reading the text message that just got in. “I accept your apology Benita, and I am very happy that the contract went to a befitting person. I wish you good luck,I will be having my birthday party this weekend, on Friday. How about you come over with Andrew?”Benita’s face broadened into more smiles after reading the text Lily had sent. As soon as Andrew dropped her at the hotel a few minutes, the first thing she did when she got in was to text Lily. She tried explaining her relationship with Andrew because she knew Lily had misunderstood them, she also sympathized with Lily for her contract loss. It was relieving for her to finally apologize even though she was doubtful that Lily wouldn't reply to her text,but she needed to get the heavy weight off her chest. But, seeing the text message Lily had just sent ba

    The club bubbled with excitement, as loud music played in the background “Happy birthday Lily” the people in the room echoed in unison as Lily cut her cake, her face beaming with smiles but underneath those smiles, her heart boiled with anger. Her gaze continually flickered to where Andrew and Benita were seated , and with each stare, her chest contrasted with more anger . She hated that they were here, but she had no other option as this was the only way to carry on with her plans. When she had stared enough, almost digging a hole to their heads, she decided it was time to commence with her plans and get rid of them so she could enjoy her party. She walked up to the center of room and announced excitedly “It's time for the games guys” She said and her words were met with a round of applause as everyone anticipated the game, all except Benita, who felt nervous at the mention of the word “Game” she had never been good at any type of game, so she avoided them all together. And als

    He had noticed that Benita was beginning to get drunk and he wasn't exactly comfortable with it. “No, Andrew, let me, it's the rule of the game” Benita said letting out a loud laughter “Benita, you are clearly drunk, here take this”Andrew said, handing over a glass of water to Benita “ I'm okay Andrew, I've got this, I'm not drunk yet, I'm just tipsy” Benita countered Andrew hesitated for a while his grip still firm on the glass , but then a thought flashed through his mind causing his grip to loosen around the glass,he had no reason to fear for Benita’s safety, he was going to let her have fun, after all he was here with her and that automatically meant she was safe, he would be the one to drop her off at the hotel even if she ends up getting too drunk. “Ok, but just this one”He said, loosening his grip around the glass entirely “Sure, this is the last one, don't worry I'm still sober”Benita giggled as she gulped down the vodka at one go. Seeing that her mission had

    Mr Koin finally made it out of the midst of the crowd he'd been locked in earlier. He walked up to Andrew with a big smile on his face and pulled him closer. “We should go to the private room sir. Everything about the Rootox herb will be revealed to you there.” He said. Andrew nodded and began to follow him when a gruff voice suddenly stopped both of them in their step. “Stop. You can't give it to him.” Andrew turned to see who had stopped them and it was one of the five men he had been watching earlier. Mr Koin paused as well to stare at the man who now commanded the attention of the room. The herb master seemed confused as to why the man would stop him when the deal had been finalized. Andrew sighed and glanced at the door. He hadn't expected them to give up the herb without a fight after he noticed their determination to get it earlier. “Why do you say that, sir?” Mr Koin replied cautiously as though he was picking his words carefully to not offend the man. “We bidded a lot f

    Chapter 92: Turn around

    The room suddenly erupted with laughter after several minutes of silence. It started from an old man who couldn't believe Andrew had just spoken and soon it spread all over the room, even the group of reserved men were laughing at Andrew for no reason. “Who does this young chap think he is? Some sort of prankster or excellent joker? Boy, if you don't get the hell out of this room and let real men pay for their herbs.” The man who laughed first commented but Andrew ignored him and stared at Mr Koin who was still in disbelief. “S..sir, are you sure you mentioned the right price?” Mr Koin stuttered, still in shock and disbelief. “ Of course the boy has no idea what he's saying. Young man, you must think this is child's play but it's not. The men here are men who hold keys to several places in the world that your wretched ass can never dream of, so quit dreaming and take this last chance to exit this room.” Another man spoke but Andrew remained undeterred. At this point, he noticed t

There was nothing he hated more than being in the company of old men like this, who seemed to think life revolved around them and everyone else worked for them. “Hundred thousand dollars.” Someone else yelled loudly. “You should use your money to take a trip to the Maldives, poor one. I'll take it for two hundred thousand dollars.” An extravagantly dressed man yelled and the room became filled with laughter as the previous bidder bowed his head in shame. Andrew watched the man walk out of the room with his head bowed. He smiled at the sight. That man was the same person who called him wr

    Mr Koin began “Now ,It's time for the Rootox herb. We will start taking biddings for now.” he announced with a grin on his face Andrew's heart skipped at the mention of the rootox herb ,he couldn't believe his ears .The same herb he believed had gone extinct ? Andrew thought, his face enveloping into a smile .This had just made his day ,and he couldn't wait to lay his hands on the herb “Before we commence ,this is an additional information ,as usual everyone present in this room know the rules . Any herb that isn't available physically,we bid for the location instead” Mr Koin said and Andrew heaved a sigh , he had hoped it was the herb itself and not the location ,but regardless ,it was still the same .Now he knew it hadn't gone extinct , he'd do whatever it took to lay his hands on that herb .The room was dead silent as everyone's gaze remained glued to the figure standing on the stage,waiting a go ahead order to start the bidding .“ Now ,shall we begin?” Mr Koin said aloud

    An hour later, Andrew's car screeched to a stop in front of a clubhouse. The lights outside were bright and inviting and Andrew tried to take in the environment of the club house before stepping out of the car . Andrew heaved a deep sigh as he walked towards the entrance. Though he still had doubts that he would be able to get the Rootox herb here ,but deep down ,he hoped to be proved wrong . Benita’s life depended on this herb ,and there was nothing he wanted more than laying his hands on the damn herb . “Donchester.” Andrew whispered the name of the club house to himself. He tried to note as many details about the place as he could. If this place is capable of leading him to the Rootox herb , then he'd give it a try . Andrew concluded and made his way to the entrance “Hold on . What are you here for ?” The security guard held out his hand ,obstructing Andrew from going in. “I'm here for an auction” Andrew replied calmly,ignoring the man's spiteful gaze “Can I see

I just need your help with something ” Tiffany said in a low tone “What is it ,princess ?” “Daddy ,Andrew is in search of some herb and he needs it urgently . It's very important ,I thought to ask you, maybe you might know someone who knows about it ” Tiffany said desperately Mr Queen paused briefly ,ransacking his brain “ There is this place I know . I have been there once. I think he might be able to get what he is looking for there ” “Really Dad ?” Tiffany asked ,her voice laced with excitement as she threw a “I told you” glance at Andrew “ It's an underground clubhouse on New town road” Mr Queen said,divulging more information to Tiffany . After 10 minutes of being on the phone,they finally hung up Tiffany turned to face Andrew ,a bright smile plastered across her face “ You see Andrew ,I told ya!” Tiffany said Jubil

    Chapter 87: Rootox herb

    All through the drive to Tiffany's house, Andrew could not stop thinking about Benita and what the doctor said. He had called everyone he thought would be able to find the herb but he couldn't find any help. Lines of worry creased his face as he drove and he spoke so little to Tiffany who was trying to get into a conversation with him. All he could think of was Benita dying after she saved his life and gave him a second chance in life. Tiffany noticed that Andrew was distracted and was surprised to see that. Andrew happened to be the most focused and unbothered person she knew so seeing him this way not only surprised her but made her worried as well. What could he be thinking about? She asked herself. After a while, Tiffany could no longer put up with the strange silence that had filled the car. She tried to force the words out but nothing comes. “Andrew, are you okay?” She asked after a long conflict in her mind. Andrew glanced at her and let out a small smile. “Yes, I'm fine.

    Somewhere in Nashville city ,a young lady was seen In a damp room with little light seeping from a small hole on the wall . “Somebody help! Tiffany yelled as she struggled in the chair she was tied to , she began stomping her feet on the floor, as she tried to free herself from the rope she was bound to. "Is anyone there?" Tiffany continued shouting ,her heart racing with dread. Suddenly , the sound of the door opening and slamming shut, echoed in the empty damp room " Who are you? Why am I here?!" Tiffany bellowed But the tall lean man who had just walked in kept her quiet despite her loud screams "Why do you have me here ?" Tiffany continued screaming ,as her heart beat with fear " Shut the fuck up!" The gruff voice roared, slamming the only furniture in the damp and dimly lit room ,the shaky wooden table creaked, collapsing on the floor "Why am I here? What do you have with me?!" Tiffany yelled, struggling with the rope "Please release me I have done wrong !" The

    Their eyes were filled with disbelief and trepidation as they watched Andrew amble in.None of them made a move cause it looked like they were standing face to face with a ghost .“H… How are you still alive? One of the men who had seen Andrew's motorbike caught up in flames eventually asked ,his voice trembling with fear “He fell off that cliff I am sure!”another added “Me too!”“I saw that fire, there's no way he's alive”.They argued not quite believing who was standing before them “Any more words from you guys ,I will release a bullet to that hole on your damn face!”Mr prime growled,his eyes brimming with rage but beneath he was scared .“What are you seeing ?Does it look like he died ? Mr prime barked Andrew smirked menacingly as he watched their commotion , he never fell off the cliff. He was the protagonist of a book, so why would he die? They just caught him off guard,but no harm was done.He was quick enough to hang on a broken branch. He heard their laughter, their che
