With a loud growl, he stormed to where Benita was hiding and pulled her by the hair, dragging her up with force. “Ha ha ha, not so fast!” Mr lethal snarled, holding a dagger to Benita’s throat. Andrew snapped his head to see Benita helpless in Mr. Lethal’s grasp. “If you move an inch, I gladly slit her throat and feed you her rotten flesh ” Mr lethal threatened, and began crackling with laughter as he gloated over his supposed victory. “I give you 2 seconds to surrender, drop to your knees now and bring your hands forward!” Mr. lethal ordered as some men with dangling chains moved towards Andrew . “Please go, just leave, they will kill you. Please go” Benita quivered as she felt the cold blade on her skin. “Since you choose to do this the hard way, I will show no mercy!”Andrew warned “He looked at the trembling Benita and mouthed,"I will be okay,” at least to ease her mind. “I give you 1 sec to surrender, or you watch her die…. Before Mr lethal could finish his senten
“Wait, hold on” Benita said, bursting into a loud laughter after her futile efforts at trying to hold it back. After she had had her fill of laughter , she paused, feeling bad at how she had interrupted the man like that, but that didn't make what the man had just blurted out, less ridiculous, at least to her. “ Please I'm sorry about that, I couldn't hold it back” Benita said, still finding what the mysterious man had just said funny. Chairman of the biggest company in the whole country , in the same room without security and in casual attire. “I barely know you, but I think you are a nice man, but I like honesty” Benita advised, not finding what the man had said funny any more, it was totally unbelievable. While watching Benita laugh, Andrew was tempted to join her also. Indeed he didn't think this through, if it were him, would he have believed if a random man walked up to him and said something like that? Deciding to retrace his words and gradually reveal the truth t
As soon as Mike saw the security guards coming their way, his lips curled into a smirk. “I want you to drag this things out of here, their presence would contaminate other important guests” He orderedBut they ignored, walking towards him instead. “I said throw these two out , why are you walking towards me? Do you know who I am?” Mike bellowed, his eyes turning red The men blatantly ignored him, dragging him by his arms and was about to bundle him out of the event. But they paused immediately, as they received an eye signal from Andrew, telling them not to throw him out. Andrew wanted him to be inside to receive a larger dose of humiliation. Forcefully, they released the man from their grasp causing him to land on his butt with a thud. “Ouch!” Mike yelped rubbing his ass “ All of you will pay for this!”He yelled, as he watched Andrew and Benita’s back disappear into the hall. **As Andrew and Benita walked into the hall, he dug out his phone fr
The hall buzzed with excitement as the people waited for the event to start. Everyone in the hall was dressed in their finest clothing , because they had been anticipating this day —the day the mysterious president of A and U would finally reveal his face. Lily, her mother, Miranda, and brother Ben, were seated at the special table, cladded in their best outfits as they reveled in the adoration from the guests. Their cheeks were hurting from the amount of smiles they had had to flash at everyone complimenting them . Everyone in the hall was in awe of Lily. They deemed her lucky and blessed to be the winner of the A and U project. Everyone was throwing themselves at their feet in order to get on their good side. “Lily you are such an incredible woman and I wish my daughter would grow up to be like you someday” A woman walked up to their table, her face covered in smiles. “Thank you, don't worry she will grow up to make you proud just as my daughter here is alway
Lily's eyes remained glued to Andrew and Benita as they walked side by side into the hall. “Benita what are you doing with that scum?” Lily called out to her friend, her face scrunching up in disgust. Then, it hit her “Wait, don't tell me you are the girl that trash moved on with a few days after our divorce?” Lily pointed her fingers at Andrew and burst into a humiliating laughter, but deep down, she hadn't expected Andrew would find Benita so easily even when she withheld information about her.Benita stood there in shock, not understanding why Lily was laughing and insulting Andrew. Wait,did I just hear divorce? Benita muttered as Lily's words sank into her ears. She looked at Lily and back at Andrew, she did that 2 times.Then, it struck her like lightning —Andrew was Lily's ex husband, —the same man she had said she would kick in the balls if she saw him. Lily stared at Andrew in disgust expecting him to show a form of recognition towards her but he didn't, which angered he
“Oh my God! Let him down, you bastard! Today is my day and dare try to ruin it ?!” Lily yelled,glaring at Andrew in disgust, and soon other voices began to join in. The hall erupted into loud noises and murmurs as people bashed Andrew. Undeterred, by their meaningless noise, Andrew's hands were still tightly wrapped around Ben's neck as he struggled, his eyes bulging out in pain. “If you don't let him down now, you will regret your entire existence today” Marinda threatened her eyes blazing with fury “Let him down you fool, are you not scared to touch the brother of our golden lady?” A man yelled from the crowd As all this was going on, Benita stood at the corner, her heart drumming against her chest as she heard the vile words falling out of people's mouths. But Andrew didn't bulge, the man he held had stopped struggling and was just coughing out blood. Benita rushed to where Andrew stood, panic etched on her face as she feared for what would happen to Andrew if Ben died.
“Yes! It's finally happening ” Lily squealed, her face liting up with smiles “You both tried to ruin my day but you have failed woefully, watch how your pitiful life gets more miserable” Lily sneered, eyeing Andrew and Benita condescendingly Adjusting her hair,she walked towards the men in black suits. “Hello sir, welcome to my event, I'm sure you already know me by now” she giggled, batting her eyelashes “Anyways, we have a little problem over here”Lily said, her voice laced with disdain “Can you imagine these bags of trash? they were harassing me at my own event” Lily sneered , pointing at Denzel and Benita “Since you are here and the Chairman would be arriving soon to announce my partnership”“I want you to bundle these bags of trash out of here , but before that, break their legs so they would learn not to over step their boundaries ever again”“Mrs. Miranda and her limping son, Ben, began to feel more confident that the men would listen to Lily , so they stepped forward to
“What did he just do?”“Did he just bow to that man?” Different People asked all at once , their voices laced with disbeliefThe hall went into a frenzy, their murmurings echoing with disbelief “It shouldn't be what I'm thinking” “What is it that you are thinking?”“Are you sure the call that man made was fake? As it is, maybe it wasn't”“Wait, are you trying to say that the man might actually be the..” “What! No way! The chairman of A and U?“Exactly! Because who else holds that much power to make the CEO bow to them?” “Oh my God, and I have been bashing him since, I hope the CEO won't take it out on us” “Same here,I even called him horrible names, but thank God, I didn't say mine out loud” “Shut up! But you did insult him!”The whole hall was bustling with noise as people weighed on their opinions and horrible past attitude towards Andrew. “Quite everyone! I need absolute silence this minute” The CEO thundered and the hall turned pin drop quite immediately. The entire hall w
