Murdoch's neighbor came over the next day to check on Oscar and Murdoch. "Hi!" She said when Murdoch opened the door. "Hi! Please come in." Murdoch invited her in. This was the first time that Murdoch was inviting her into his apartment. "Hi!" Murdoch replied her. "How are you both doing?" She asked both of them."We are doing good, thanks to you." Oscar said. "I did not do much, you know." She said. "You actually did but what made you to know that something was happening here?" Murdoch asked her. "When I came to knock at the door I noticed that you were not your usual self. It was as if someone was controlling you to behave mechanically." She said."I did not notice that you noticed my nervousness." He said. "I did and I decided to come back and that is why I took the risk I took. I did not trust that man the first time I saw him come to your apartment with your girlfriend." She said. "I really appreciate your bravery because of it we are out of danger." Murdoch said."So where are
Victor was so elated with his achievement. He was beside himself with excitement. He was glad because he saw how helpless Gerard was. He could not do anything about the situation. He was also glad that he was the one that delivered the verdict. Victor was not happy at first when Gerard brought Ben here to work.He felt that Gerard did not consult him as regards Ben working here because he was suppose to be the one in charge as he was the H.R, recruitment processes should go through him.He believed that even though he was the owner of the company, Gerard should still give him the respct that he deserved and not circumvent his authority in the company. Victor felt that if Gerard had sought his advice and input as regards Ben's employment in the company he would not have treated the boy the way he was treated by him. To him, it was Gerard that put Ben in the situation he got himself in and now Gerard could not help himto bring him out of the situation. All Victor needed to do was to
Gerard entered his study and he was disappointed that Ben had left. He understood why he must have left. Ben knew that Gerard expected a lot from him which meant that he needed to be very serious and dedicatedin his behaviors and duties. Gerard understood that Ben left because he believed that he had disappointed Gerard and most of all himself.Gerard felt disappointed at the situation that he had been put in by the action that Ben was involved in. If there was no concrete evidence he would have been able to investigate the situation and find out who was wrong and who was right. Right now he had a very good feeling that Ben did not do what was claimed that he did. Gerard noticed how Victor was grinning. The man tried to hide it but he couldn't and Gerard noticed it whichgave him the belief, that Mr. Victor had a hand in what happened and he was lying about it. Gerard had to investigate the issue but right now how was he suppose to do that when the person that was involved and could
After Ben left Mandy's house he called up Brown who was still at work. "Dude! Just go to the house and wait for me. I will be home soon from work." Brown said. Ben wasted no time in going to his house. When he got there he met his sister, Carol. "Hi! Be.............n. I hope I got it right." She said. "Yea! You did." Ben replied smiling. "My brother is not around right now." She said."I know he is not around. I called earlier on and he said he would soon be on his way home." Ben told her. "Oh! Okay!" She said. "You can call him if you want confirmation." Ben said. "Nope! There is no need for that. As long as you have called him, I am cool." She said. Ben was allowed into the house. "What do I offer you?" She asked. "Nothing for now. Thanks." Ben said. "Alright then! I will be in my room." She said.She was about going to her room when she suddenly stopped and came back to Ben. "If you do not mind me asking, I thought you were working in the same company as my brother." She asked. Ben
Ben was filled with renewed belief. He had a good friend in Brown who was there to give him good advice. Ben won't be where he was right now if not for the good people that he had come across since he came to the U.S. Ben decided that he was not going to go back. He was going to explain to Gerard what went down in Mr. Victor's office. Gerard was yet to speak to Ben about the issue."I think I should call him to inform him that I am coming home to see him." Ben asked Brown. "I think that would be a good idea." Brown agreed.Ben picked his phone and he was a bit filled with anxiety as he wanted to dial the number. Brown was urging him on. As he dialed it the phone began to ring and his heart began to race faster as he waited for Gerard to pick the call.............................................................................................................................Gerard was in the room with his wife. He did not say anything to her. Rose was on her phone and Gerard was on hi
Gerard got home and he went straight to his study and got the pendant from where he kept it. "You are back sir." Mrs. Mendoza said to him when she saw him coming out of his study. "Yes! But I will be leaving very soon. Please can you arrange food for me in a warmer." Gerard said. "Why sir? Do you want to stay out tonight at the office?" She asked him."No Mendy! It is not for me. It is for Ben." Mendoza was elated. "You found him. I thought he must have gone for good. "I found him but he in the hospital right now. He was ran over by an oncoming vehicle." He said. "Gracious me! I hope he is okay?" She said, visibly shaken. "He is. Asides from a broken leg and a cut on his head, he is okay." Gerard said."I am happy. Thank God!" She said. "So please arrange the food for me so that when he wakes up he can eat something." He said. "Okay sir!" She replied and went her way to the kitchen. Gerard went upstairs to his room. He saw his wife and he said nothing to her. "Have you finally seen hi
Ben was speechless. He did not know what to say. He also did not know what to think. "Can Mr. Chamberlain be my father?" He thought. He looked at Mr. Chamberlain who might potentially be his father. Gerard was stunned. Now he understood why he had a deep attraction towards Ben. "This would be the revelation of the year if you are really my father." Ben said."Is there any reason why it is not a possibility?" Gerard asked. "I am just stunned after thinking about looking for my father, I never knew he was right here in front of me." Ben said. "I never knew you were also right here in front of me." Gerard said. "Ben was still doubting it but Gerard was sure that this was his son but he was trying not to get ahead of himself."I know you are still shocked by this and you are having doubts. Am I right?" He asked Ben. Ben nodded his head in agreement to what he said. "Now! This is what we are going to do." Gerard said. "And what is that?" Ben asked. "We will conduct a DNA test." Gerard tol
Rose had not been herself since the boy he tried to get rid off was still alive and in the same house with her. Rose had no idea that things were going to be different by the time the news hits her that her husband had a son. The news will be a news that Rose will not accept. She will definitely be livid and she might go to the edge of doing something very drastic and desperate.Gerard was about to go to check on Ben when Rose said he wanted to talk to him. "What is it?" Gerard asked her in a very polite manner which surprised her a little bit. "I am sorry that I have not really being a good wife, a companion and a friend but I really want us to work things out." Rose said. Gerard saw that Rose was putting a lot of effort in what she was saying.Gerard said nothing. He just listened to what she had to say. "I want us to live as a family just the way things were before." Rose said. "I am open to that only if you are nice to Ben." Gerard said. Rose was livid about what Gerard said but s
