Kevin couldn't believe it. Why would the Lille family want to kidnap Mia?It just didn't make sense, and Kevin had questions but no answers.He opened the door and safely placed her on the passenger's side. He made sure she was safely locked before he moved to the driver's side.He got inside and hesitated briefly. He said he wasn't sleeping in the house that night, but it looked like that was what was going to happen. There was no way he would leave Mia in the middle of the road, drunk like she is, not even when there was a failed attempt to kidnap her.The whole issue still amused him. But then, there was now a way he would find out at that spot. He might need to ask Alessia for help.“Kevin?” A soft voice called.Kevin inclined his head towards Mia. She didn't open her eyes, and in fact, she didn't move from her position. It merely thought she was dreaming or just being drunk.Kevin didn't respond. There was no need to. Mia was drunk.“I'm sorry for what I've done to you. And for w

Kevin had to enter Mia’s room again to pick up some clothes. Mia was still sleeping and didn't even shift, even though the door made a creak sound.She really had a lot to drink anyway.He got dressed as early as seven o'clock so he could leave the house. But he made sure the whole family of Perry were done eating before he walked out.He didn't want to face any issues that morning. Unless Mia had told them what he said, they would still be pestering him and being annoying.Kevin didn't want that early that morning.His phone beeped suddenly as he stepped out. It was a message from Jake. It said he was already waiting for him outside the house.He hadn't called him. So, he wondered how he was known to be waiting for him in front of the house.He stepped out nonetheless.Truthfully, a black BMW car was waiting outside. Kevin got inside the backseat.“Good morning, sir,” Jake said the moment Kevin got inside.Kevin looked at him. “Good morning. What's happening?”Jake smiled. “I have a
Dominance Commander Son-in-law 69: The Job offer
The three top families were McCarthy, Stewart, and Fitzgerald, leading respectively.In terms of business, the McCarthy family had no rival. They were just like the Phoenix Group in Penia City. The majority of business partners want to sign with them. The Stewart family followed closely, almost taking over.People actually think Stewart might take over before the end of the year. The margin between them wasn't that long.The Fitzgerald were, however, behind by far. It merely looked like they were concerned with keeping their position, but they had no plan to push forward. But then, their reputation was unmatched.Even the Lille family that was on number six were drawing knives.A year ago, McCarthy was also the leading family, but it was followed by Fitzgerald, then Stewart. It looks like the Stewart family is really pushing forward.Ben from the Stewart family has requested a chance to speak with Kevin actually. Kevin had forgotten, but Alessia was sure to include it in the document.

Kevin was shocked and skeptical. For some minutes, the only thing he could do was stare at the message.Why would Mia give him a job in the company? It was something that has never been done.He read the mail for the third time. There was even a date for him to resume. He was supposed to resume work the next day as early as nine o'clock.Kevin laughed at this. He picked up his phone and went through his contact list. He hesitated when he saw Mia’s number, but it only lasted for a few minutes. Kevin dialled her number.It rang the first time, but there was no response. He redialed, but there was no response as well.So, Kevin decided to give her space; perhaps she was in a meeting. She would definitely call back when she sees the notification.He stepped out eventually and walked back to the dining room. The foods have been spread on the table. In fact, there were different delicacies there.Jake sat, salivating. It was vividly clear he was happy by what was in front of him.His phone

“What do you mean? Are you looking down on boss?” Jake questioned suddenly. He was suddenly standing beside them and looking at the man in tuxedo. If looks could kill, the man would have been dead already.The man smirked. “He even calls him boss. "What an irony,” he laughed the more.Kevin scoffed. "Then let's hear the price, as she has said. And let's see who loses.”The older salesperson cracked. “I can't wait for this to unfold.”Alexa moved away but soon returned. She had a tablet in her hands.“The clothes on each statue have a trouser and a top each. One has a jacket and an inner blouse. And we have just three Mannequins. So, the total is 300,000 dollars,” she revealed.The older salesperson started laughing again. “Can you hear that? Did you? There's no way you will be able to afford that.”She had already measured them the moment they walked in. This was why she didn't even bother herself with attending to them. It was all going to be a waste of energy. From their clothing, o

Kevin spent most of his time in his small office, thinking of a perfect plan. And he eventually had it sorted out.He wouldn't be able to find out who the culprit really is without proceeding with plans. Whoever the person was must be difficult to get.That's why he needed to plan very well.There was a lot he had to do, but he was going to do them one at a time.His phone rang suddenly. It was Louis. He picked it up immediately. “Hello Boss. I just arrived in Penia City now,” he announced. “May I know your side so I can come over?”“Oh yes. I will ask Jake to come and get you. He will be there soon.”“Allright boss. I will be waiting.”And the line went off.Kevin walked out of the office. Jake wasn't in the living room. So, he went to check him in his room.He was inside, arranging his clothes.He looked up the moment the door opened. He dropped the clothes with him and hurried to stand in front of Kevin.“Is there anything you want me to do for you, sir?”Kevin nodded once. “Louis

It was eight in the night when Jake pulled in front of Perry's villa.“Should I pick you up tomorrow, sir?”Kevin nodded once, even though he wasn't yet sure how tomorrow would be. But then he was sure that he would definitely be leaving home tomorrow.Besides, he still needed to meet and talk to Louis concerning his plans.He walked inside. It was late in the night. So, no one was in the living room.Kevin thought perhaps Mia was even asleep now. Well, if she was. Then, he might have to wait to talk to her the next day.The reason he was intentionally coming late was because of her family anyway.“I thought you were coming early,” a soft voice said suddenly as Kevin started towards one of the maid rooms.Kevin stopped in his tracks and turned towards where the voice came from. Mia was standing by the fridge. She opened it and pulled out a bottle of water.She took a sip and turned to look at Kevin. “I've been waiting for you.”“I had a lot to do.”Mia gathered her brows amazingly.“A

Kevin couldn't believe it. “A bath, with you?”Or did he heat wrong?Mia hesitated briefly, as if thinking about it. “I said what I said. I don't like to be indebted to anyone, just like you.”Kevin was surprised. Indeed, she was definitely up to something. How could such a matter be something they would be dragging?”“I thought all these things were supposed to happen between two couples that are in love with each other. Why must it happen over a deal between you?”Mia frowned, bothered. “So, you won't have it with me?”Kevin released a ragged sigh. “I will resume tomorrow then if thats what you truly want.”Mia squeezed his head in concentration.She wouldn't lie, but the response hurt her.“Are you saying you will rather work than do stuff with me?”Kevin didn't know where the allegations were coming from. He merely thought that Mia was doing all she could to make sure Kevin started working at Euphoric Bio. She knew he would eventually succumb if she pressed further.Or was there mo

Lisa lingered at the door to her classroom. She turned back the way she had come,gazing down the shirt hallway.Maybe I should go back to uncle Kevin and plead with him to follow me in, she thought.She knew that Kevin had done something to them, their apology was a testament of that, but… there was this fear that they've instilled in her. She barely ever showed it, but their presence fill her with dread. When they had walked out of the basketball court, she had grown rigid with fear until she remembered that the principal was by her side and Kevin wasn't far away.“Don't worry, Lisa,” she closed her eyes and took a deep breath. “You’ve got this. You can do this. Uncle Kevin has warned them off, there's nothing to be scared about anymore.”After the quick pep talk, she lifted her chin and squared her shoulders like her mom always teaches her to, and walked into the class.She passed a quick greeting to the teacher and walked to her seat, avoiding to look in her ex-bullies’ direction.

“Wow,” Kevin exclaimed. "That's great!” Vivian beamed."Which company is that?" Kevin asked.“Glikkle enterprise."The name Amy mentioned immediately rang a bell. Though not as big as the Mekin company, Glikkle enterprise was one of the big businesses right now."What a great way to begin the day.” Kevin smiled. “See that we're not doomed like Mr Ross, the manager of the Mekin company equivalent to the CEO of any other company, thought we'd be."Amy and Vivian laughed lightly. “We're not, boss.” Amy said, a smile plastered on her lips. “No one can stop the Print Odd from growing."“Now, that's the zeal. Let no one intimidate you just because the company is a start up.”“Yes, boss,” they chorused, insanely glad that they had a man like Kevin as their boss."So boss, when will you be free so I can book the appointment?”Kevin ruminated on her question for a while. “Tomorrow, by 12, will be fine."“Alright, boss. I'll go get started now."Kevin nodded as Amy walked out. He handed over

Kevin ended the call with Gideon. He was about to pull back on the road when his phone rang again.With his hands still on the steering wheel, he glanced back at the phone. The moment he saw the caller's ID, one of his hands fell from the wheel as he picked up his phone and answered the call.“Hello, boss, good morning.”"Lionel, good morning.”"I called to ask if you've heard from the guy, boss.”"Gideon? The one you suggested to handle the company in my absence, right?”"Yes, boss. We've talked, and I have actually given him a go-ahead. In fact, he has arrived in Landary province. He's in the country right now.”"Yes, I know that. I've heard from him. I actually just finished talking to him.”“Okay, then.”“Yeah, everything's alright. We've discussed a bit. He seems like a good guy. And I can see he's very interested in the role he'll be handling. That's a good start.”"Yes, boss. Once I told him, he accepted in a heartbeat.”Kevin chuckled lightly. "I'm not surprised.”“By the way,

“People need to learn to drive properly,” Kevin muttered under his breath, shaking his head as he slowed down and allowed a motorcycle to speed past the front of his car. If he had been driving as recklessly as the boy and kept up with his speed without being cautious, he'd have hit the ignorant boy. As he marched on the accelerator and returned to his initial average speed, his gaze followed the young boy on the motorcycle who had sped ahead. Kevin began to contemplate if he should go after the boy and reprimand him for his speed. He was on a packed highway; he should move with some sense and not just speed ahead because he feels adrenaline pumping through his body because he's on a power bike. Before Kevin could make up his mind, his attention was drawn from the motorcycle that was rapidly disappearing in the distance ahead; his phone rang out.With his gaze now on the road, he reached for his phone on the dashboard. He switched his attention between the road and his phone. Ashe c

“So that's all about the premises,” Jake said as they stepped out of the storeroom behind the Print Odd building. “As time goes on, you'll get used to the ins and outs of the building.""Thank you,” Howard said to Jake, grateful for the detailed tour. The Print Odd building was quite bigger than it looked. If Jake hadn't shown him around, he was sure to get lost someday.“So now, let's head up so I can introduce you to the two second most important people after the boss.”“Okay,” Howard said, then he added, guessing. "That would be the manager and…" He trailed off, and Jake didn't hesitate to fill in.“And his secretary. They basically run this place since the boss is always busy."Howard nodded as they made their way inside the main building. Jake first walked them toward Vivian's cubicle. And as luck would have it, as they approached, he saw that Amy was right there with her, hunched over Vivian's desk, both of their gazes glued to the system as she pointed at the desktop's screen,

Just as Kevin took a step in the direction of the parking lot, he came to an abrupt halt as a thought hit him. He turned around and walked back into the school building.He was headed for the principal's office, but then made a detour when he saw the principal in the hallway. He appeared to be in a serious conversation with someone as they walked farther down the hallway.“Principal,” he called to stop him since he was walking as he spoke with the man.The principal instantly stood straighter, immediately recognising the voice he had just come to know about half an hour ago. It was forever etched in his memory. He turned around and saw him walking toward him. “Mr. Kevin,” he smiled as he began to walk toward him, determined to reach him before he took more than three strides. He reached him just after Kevin took his second stride.“You came back," he said when he stopped before him. Did he return to accept the invitation to the end-of-the-year party? He wondered before Kevin could

“The right thing to do is to apologise to the person that you all offended. Who do you think is madder at you than I am right now?"Their eyes widened the same instant that one of them gasped, “Lisa!”At that moment, they all scrambled to their feet and raced one another outside the court, each wanting to be the first to apologise to Lisa.Kevin smiled as he watched them troop out of the door. He began to walk to the door so he could join them outside, turning the lights off on his way out.Outside, the kids were already in front of Lisa, apologising to her.Lisa and the principal gaped at them, wondering what Kevin had done to them.They even had smiles on their faces! Lisa squinted her eyes at them to see if their smiles were the evil ones they always gave her in class or the forced ones they flashed at her whenever there was a teacher around. But it wasn't! She couldn't believe her eyes; her bullies were genuinely smiling at her.The principal also looked at them, shocked but glad.

“Lord Phoenix," Lionel's voice filled the space. “Is there anything you need me to do for you?" Kevin smirked as he pointed his left index finger to his phone that he held in his right hand, "Do you hear that?"“What? Sorry, Lord Phoenix. I didn't get that.”Kevin took in the kids' reactions, their bugged eyes and open mouths. The girl who had her arms stubbornly crossed across her chest as she proved to be a badass just a few minutes ago now had her hands by her side, clutching her gown as she shivered with fear. She was the one that looked the most scared. It was true that the loudest was usually always the dumbest.Kevin scoffed, shaking his head.“Lionel,” Kevin finally acknowledged him. “Yes, boss?""I'd call you later,” Kevin told him, then he hung up.All of the kids shook with fear as they gaped at Kevin. They couldn't believe they were in the presence of the lord Phoenix.The lead girl and the tall boy who had both seemed the boldest and most fearless were the ones who trem

The principal, greatly angered that the little riffraff were about to cost him his career, walked closer to the bullies, a group of two girls and four boys. He recognised one of the boys; the mother had been to his office multiple times to complain about his bad grades, and each time, they'd enrol him in an extra class. “So this is what you do instead of attending classes and reading your books, right?”They shook their heads vigorously. "No, principal. We were just helping Lisa. We didn't know class had started,” one of the girls spoke up.“Helping Lisa?” He quipped, then asked heatedly, "What were you possibly helping Lisa to do?”The girl that had spoken looked to the other girl whose eyes widened before she was pushed towards the principal.“Her hair!” The girl squeaked. “Lisa wants long hair, so we're helping her. Milk helps hair grow longer,” she rushed out in one breath.“Yes, ask her!" The boys chorused and pointed at Lisa, who still had her face buried in Kevin's shirt.It w
