Gilbert and the elder got to the restaurant, they were shocked to see how everywhere was scattered, people were still in their hiding places."What happened here?." Gilbert asked one of the waiters."Some thugs bursted into this place and went away with a guy." The waiter answered in a shaky voice. Gilbert was shocked to hear that, but didn't let the waiter notice how shocked he was."Did you perhaps recognise the guy they took with them or the face of anybody?." Gilbert asked further."The first guy is Alfred the grandson of Derek, I heard his cousin was raped by a guy few days back, I'm thinking maybe they traced it to the guy they took away, not really sure about it though." The waiter stated in a clear voice, people have started coming out of their hidden places."Thank you for the information." Gilbert appreciated it and walked away with the elder."What does that mean?." The elder who has been silent for a long time finally spoke up after they got to the car."It means Moore has
Claudia rolled on the bed sluggishly while opening her eyes,the first person she saw was Moore sleeping comfortably on the couch. "Today would be a bad day for me because of that idiot, he must be happy and excited." She muttered and rolled her eyes at him before getting up.She walked into the bathroom and came back shortly after taking her bath. She was surprised to see him still sleeping. That got her so angry that she had to walk up to him. "Hey get up." She yelled at him, but he didn't stand up. "Get up from that couch right now, I understand that you don't have a couch as beautiful and soft as this but that doesn't warrant you to destroy it with your sleeping." Claudia screamed into his ears, Moore jumped out of the bed in fright."Good morning Claudia." Moore greeted instead of exchanging words with her. He was also shocked by his attitude, at the same time, Fiona did a lot to him, so his patient was still intact.Claudia was astonished by his response, instead of him talkin
Moore walked a little bit away from the car because he knew Claudia might say something that would trigger him to reply. A smile appeared on his face when the car zoomed off.He quickly brought out his phone and dialed Gilbert's number, which he picked at the second ring."He might have been expecting my call." He thought."Hi Moore, how are you doing? Hope you weren't hurt?." Gilbert rushed the questions."I'm fine, can we meet up at a restaurant right now." Moore said in a hurry."Yes, send me the address and I will be there right now." Gilbert replied and ended the call. Moore looked around for either a restaurant or a bar. He found one three houses away by the left, then he sent the address to Gilbert.Gilbert walked into the small restaurant, before he could start searching for him, Moore had already signaled to him. "Hey Gilbert." Moore greeted when Gilbert got to him."Hope you weren't harmed?." Gilbert asked with a worried expression on his face. His memory flashed back to w
Claudia didn't say anything as she strolled to the bed while rolling her eyes at Moore continually."I need to find out why she is acting like this." Moore thought and adjusted himself properly on the sofa before speaking up."What have I done wrong this time around?." He asked in a monotone voice but she could hear him clearly."You think everything now revolves around you because grandfather supported you right? You are mistaken because I will make sure you regret ever crossing paths with me." Claudia threatened while pointing her fingers at her."Does she have to threaten me all the time? I really wish for all these to end but this is just the beginning as I would have to find the person before I file for a divorce." Moore sighed.She waited for a few seconds for Moore to reply to her but he didn't. "Keeping mute is the best thing for you to do, a kid is even better than you." She snapped before standing up then walked into the bathroom."She is a pain in my a*s, I can't even res
Moore came down from Frank's car and thanked him before walking away. He made sure Frank dropped him a few blocks away from Gilbert's company in order not to raise unnecessary suspicions. After trekking for some minutes, he finally got to the company. It was huge and beautiful, the company's name was ascribed on the upper part of the building. He walked straight to the receptionist."Good morning Miss, please where is Mr Gilbert's office?." He asked politely, the receptionist (Linda) raised her head from the laptop she was operating on, she looked at him from his head to his toes in a disgusting way. Moore began to think maybe he had stained his shirt or trousers on his way coming. He started getting uncomfortable with the stares which triggers him to speak."Is everything Miss?." He asked anxiously."Nothing is okay Mr, how can a low life like you walk in here to ask for our boss. Did you even take a look at yourself in the mirror before coming here? I guess not because a man in his
Frank opened the door and walked in. Derek was sitting on his sofa with a glass of wine on the table before him."Good evening Dad." He greeted with a bow. Derek raised up his head."Did he confess to you?." Derek asked in a deep and clear voice. He sent Frank to question Moore about the incident."No he didn't, he insisted on knowing nothing about what happened." He replied."Does he give the impression that he did it intentionally?.""He didn't father, his expression was blunt, I felt he had something troubling him, maybe Claudia did something to him." Frank explained.Derek stood up staring into an empty space. Frank has been wondering why he would support Moore at the dining yesterday."Why did you support Moore yesterday?.""How dare you question me?." Derek asked in a harsh tone. "I'm sorry Dad." He apologized immediately, Derek signaled for him to leave and he left."There is something to know about this guy which I need to know about but first I have to do something very impo
Moore came down for breakfast the next day only to find out that Collins hadn't left. It really pissed him off but he has decided not to interfere or consider Claudia as his wife any longer. All he wants to do is to concentrate on his aim."Good morning grandfather, good morning Dad." Moore greeted as he approached the dining table. They were already having breakfast. He spotted an empty seat beside Derek, he walked up to the seat, dragged it out as he was about to sit on it but a shout stopped him."You have no right to sit and eat with us, who do you see as a low life like you?" Georgia shouted at him."Let him be." Derek stopped him, it came as another surprise to everyone seeing him supporting Moore again."Dad, why did you have to support him all the time?." Georgia asked."Why did your daughter have to do that shameful thing she did? If not for her then he wouldn't have been here." He snapped immediately. Moore sat down.Georgia was furious, Claudia dropped her curtleries as tea
Moore walked into the company absentmindedly, his thought was on what happened that morning. He walked into the office Gilbert showed him yesterday, Gilbert had explained everything to him before he left the previous day.He settled on his chair with a straight expression, all he has on his mind drives him crazy.A pretty young lady walked into his office without knocking, that doesn't bother him at all."The manager seeks your attention." She informed him straight away while rolling her eyes. Moore regarded her for a while."Who are you?." Moore asked, narrowing his eyes at her. "I am the secretary to the boss." She introduced herself with a big smile. It seems she really enjoys introducing herself with that."You shouldn't be made the secretary of this company at all. You walked into my office without knocking that aside, you just passed your information without a greeting. Is that how you were trained to behave?." Moore blurted out, maintaining his straight expression. The secreta
