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
After work Gilbert offered to drive him home, on their way going home, Moore felt reluctant to go home because he didn't know what would happen and he needed to give himself a break from everything. An idea of drinking alcohol crossed his mind, he laughed out to the extent that Gilbert turned and asked him why he was laughing. "An idea popped into my memory which sounds funny to me." Moore replied with a smile. "Alright." "I would like to meet with the elder tonight . Can he make it?." Moore suddenly asked after a few minutes of silence. "Why the sudden change of mind?." Gilbert asked. "I really want to meet the elder, it seems I have been keeping him waiting for so long and since your Giovanni is here then there shouldn't be any delay." Moore explained, Gilbert nodded. "You make me remember your father, he is very brave, wise and courageous, he never let anything bring him down. I know you are facing a lot right now but I assure you that it will on last for a short period of ti
Gilbert looked at the two of them simultaneously, as he wondered where they knew each other from."I never knew you were Giovanni. I'm sorry." Charles apologized."What's going on here? Where did you meet each other? How did you meet each other? and what happened between you two?." Gilbert bombarded them with questions."I don't think I will ever forgive you because you made my life a living hell in your company. You made sure I was seriously beaten before kicking me out of your company. Do you know how much I suffered from those boys?." Moore yelled angrily. It always hurt him whenever he remembered what Charles did to him."I'm very sorry Giovanni." Charles apologized while going on his knees."What?? Why did you do that? Is that how you treat people who are not as famous and as wealthy as you? You really disappoint me." Gilbert scolded and shook his head. He couldn't imagine that he would do such a thing."Forgiveness doesn't exist in my dictionary Charles, you are going to get pun
Moore waited till breakfast was over before he could step out of the room. He suddenly became fed up with everything.Claudia knobbed down the door handle and pushed it, she saw Moore sitting on the couch. "Why are you still here? I thought you would have left for work already since you didn't have your breakfast" She said while flipping the Strand hair on her face to the back."I was feeling weak and tired, that's why I decided not to go down for breakfast." Moore lied."Claudia looked at him in disbelief, a smirk followed."What is your f**king problem? You were searching for a job and you finally got it, after a few days you started complaining about feeling tired and weak. It is crystal clear that you are a lazy freak. Aren't you ashamed of yourself? Your pairs badges contract everyday, have a lot of money and work hard but you just want to sit around the house doing nothing. That's not how it works. Get your f**king a*s off my couch and leave my room." Claudia insulted him in fu
Collins strolled into the company with a big smile on, his gray tuxedo suit looking firm and beautiful on him, the dark shades he wore added to his handsomeness. "Is Miss Claudia in?." He asked the receptionist in a cool voice. "Yes sir, she is in her office." The receptionist answered without confirming from Claudia first. He has been a regular visitor for a very long time. He left there and made his way to her office. Claudia stood by the window side, looking through the window with a sad expression registered on her face. Everything bothered her so much that she felt miserable and useless at the moment. She can't even concentrate on her work anymore."Hiiii." Collins greeted as he walked in with the corners of his mouth rising in happiness.Claudia made no move as she was lost in her own thoughts. The smile on Collins's face disappeared immediately. "Why is she not replying to me? Have I done something wrong?." He questioned himself, he walked closer to her and tapped her gentl
"Who is that?." Moore asked curiously as Gilbert continued to stare at his phone without picking it up. "It is Lionel, one of the elders." He answered while tapping the table repeatedly. "Then why are you not picking his calls." "I was surprised because he called after saying that we are just waiting for nothing because he knew that there won't be a Giovanni from your family ever again then he suggested we should make him the next Giovanni claiming he deserves it." He elaborated to Moore. Moore rested his back and supported his jaw with the back of his fingers. "He really said that?." He asked for confirmation, Gilbert nodded gently. "If that is the case, call him back and put his call on loudspeaker." He instructed in a firm tone. Gilbert did as he has said, Lionel picked at the second ring. "Why are you calling me Lionel? I thought you said you won't ever call me again." Gilbert snapped at him before he could say a word. "I'm sorry about what happened that day, I was just co
Claudia was dumbfounded by the action Moore took. "How dare he walk out on me?." She questioned no one in particular."This is an opportunity for me." Collins thought and smirked secretly, he took two steps closer to her, rested his butt on the car and leaned closer to her."Look how he disrespected you all because of a side chick. He doesn't even see you as his wife at all. I knew that Moore is nothing but a gold digger right from the first day I saw him. He doesn't deserve you Claudia." He stated in a calm and pitiful eyes. Those words trigger her anger.She couldn't say anything back to him, instead she left him and walked in.Collins gave out an evily laugh when he peeped and saw that she walked as fast as her leg could carry."She is really angry, I really want to see the scene she would create inside so sad, I have to take my leave." Collins thought and scoffed.Frank and Georgia were the only people in the living room, Claudia bursted in and walked towards the stairs straight
Moore had sent the link of the video call to the two men they accepted."Good morning sir, I really appreciate your gesture towards me, you agreed to be of help immediately I dropped my proposal. "Your proposal was enticing and promising." Mr Grey complimented."I love how you analysed everything in a clear way, I would suggest we should meet somewhere to seal the deal with or what did you say Grey?.""I totally agree with you. Pick a date, prepare the necessary documents and inform us whenever you are ready." Grey said."Thank you sir, I will get back to you tomorrow sir, the document has been prepared but I need to cross check for any error." "Alright, see you later then." Mack said, the video call went off."Yes, I finally did it. I will get Claudia to check it out before meeting with them to ensure everything is in place." He said to himself and rolled his office chair happily.A knock was heard on the door. "Come in, he permitted." The door opened, Loveth came in."Sorry to dis
Moore came out of the bathroom with a towel tied on his waist, he stretched out and groaned. The couch he slept on aches him a lot, it persists even after taking a bath. He didn't know he would feel pains because that was his bed then.Moore tried to stretch out his body to function properly for the day's work.Claudia came out of the dressing room fully dressed in her office wear. She stopped and wanted to say something but decided against it and walked out."She is too arrogant to apologize after what she has done, it's fine. We shall see how everything will end." He muttered as he watched her leave the room.Frank looked up and saw Claudia descending from the stairs with a frown on her face, the smile on his face disappeared."Good morning Dad." She greeted and hugged him."How are you my angel?." "I'm fine Dad." She replied with a forced smile, they disengaged from the hug."You don't seem okay to me, tell me what the problem is." He said, she put up a deceiving smile."There is
Camila felt she had cried enough after almost five minutes of being in Moore's arms, by the time she pulled out his shirt was already drained in tears and sweats."Are you okay now?." He asked, she nodded and flashed a smile."Please pass me my laptop we need to get back to our discussion, we don't have much time." She said."You are one of the strongest girl on earth." He complimented while passing the laptop but she doesn't seem to go well with that."Why not the strongest girl in the world." She queried."I have three girls on my life. Mum, you and my wife so don't feel jealous because you have strong girls around." He explained in a funny way, Camila laughed at him explanation."Mum is a woman but a girl." "You are wrong, I haven't seen her in years so she is still a girl to me." Camila laughed again. "That's enough, you are really funny." She said admist of laughter."Keeping smile on my girls faces is the voluntary work I choose and love." "Awwn, that's so sweet my kid brothe
Moore woke up around 1 : 00am to get some water from the fridge, he didn't want to get it at first but the thirst was more than the normal one. Sluggishly and sleepily he dragged himself downstairs. On climbing down the stairs, he went into the kitchen, opened the fridge and brought out the water, he was pretty much awake. His eyes met with a flash drive laying on the floor in the living room. "Who could be owner of this?." He questioned and bent to pick it up. "Whosoever owns it will speak up in the morning." He said to himself and walked to his room. The next morning, Moore woke up very early to know who owns it, everybody came down and went back without showing any sign of looking for something. After waiting for an hour, he stood up and went back to sleep. His alarm clock woke him up. "Sh!t, I'm late for work." Moore cursed, jumped out of bed, adjusted his clothes, carried his briefcase which was already positioned on the bed beside him. He stormed out of the room, as he app
"Your time is up." Moore announced and looked at Camila."Each time I ask myself that question, sadly enough, I always get the same answer. Don't judge me by what I'm about to way, I still love Brooke so much but the memory of how he treated me is still fresh." She answered reluctantly."I'm not going to judge you because of your decision. Do you really want to be happy again?." "Yes I do." She answered almost immediately."Then you need to accept him back. With the way I saw him this morning, I had a feeling that he had changed, you both love each other." He tried to talk her out, tears flowed down her cheek."It hurts so much Moore, I was almost freezed to death, did little works just to survive. It was hell for me, there was a time I wanted to commit a suicide." She explained in tears."You know, revisiting the previous mistakes can cause everlasting sadness. Please, you need to accept him back into your life, I promise to be responsible for anything he will do to you." Moore stat
"How long did you plan to hide your marital life away from me?." Moore suddenly asked, Camila dropped her spoon in surprise."I'm not hiding it from you it just that the right time to talk about it is not here yet." She replied with a tint on of sadness in her tone."When did you intent to tell me then? Do you want to remain sad for the rest of your life? If you don't share your problems to me who did you want to share it to? I'm I really your brother because if truly I am then you shouldn't hesitate to tell me." He bombarded her with questions angrily, Camila felt sad by his words. They both became silent."I'm sorry please give me more time, I promise to tell you everything." "When will that be? Don't you know you are killing yourself inwardly? You ve never laughed or smiled genuinely not until today. Is that how you want to keep living your life? If you go back to that house, the only thing you will do is to cry and think, is that how it should be?." Moore slammed at her in increa
Leo suddenly raised his eyes to Gilbert. "If by tomorrow you didn't confess then you will be killed, you know me too well, that I would never go back on my words." He conditioned and made to leave but he remembered how he came, so he quickly dressed properly and headed out. "If only I didn't get into fight with him then this wouldn't have happened. How will I confess to what I didn't do?." Gilbert said in regrets. Leo got into the car, the two men who were inside the car looked around for any suspicious activity but they saw none. "Coast is clear, move." One of them commanded the driver, he ignited the engine and zoomed off almost immediately. "What are you going to do concerning the picture you took??" Derek asked Justin who was working on a file. "Just keeping it for the right time." He replied without looking at him, his concentration was fully on the file. "Don't bother about that, this is the right time for you to delete that thing. Do you even know how dangerous he is?." D
Brooke was reluctant to stand. "Get out." Moore growled in fury, it was louder and stronger than the first one. Brooke sprung up immediately."What have I done wrong? We were having a gentle and cool conversation few minutes ago." He tried to talk him out but Moore wasn't having it."Are you alright? What gave you the audacity to come into my office and talk your nonsense. You are the f**l my sister about, you are nothing but an animal." He yelled out once again, Brooke became more afraid and remorseful."I am very sor..." "I have had enough of your plead and stupid words." Moore cut him off and buzzed the security men."Please help me, I really love your sister." "No you don't, if you really do then you wouldn't have taken the children there and also send her out of the house. You are very wicked and I won't ever forgive you." "Please don't treat me the way I behaved. Don't think I didn't do anything before resulting to you. She always broke the lines I used in calling her but sti
"Are you serious?." Moore asked in shock."Yes, she must have told you about me but please I would love to explain myself." Brooke quickly cut in before he could speak further."Oh I see, to begin with. How did you get to know I was close to her? Who do you think I am to her? How did you even get to know me?." Moore asked curiously. Although, he shouldn't be curious but the fact that nobody knew there were siblings baffles him."I saw you both countless times, one day I heard her call you her little brother and I strongly believe that you can help us solve the pending problem." Brooke answered truthfully."Have you been spying on us?." "I'm sorry but I have been spying on both of you." He confessed, Moore chuckled."I love truthfully people. You can now go on with what you are here for and make sure you didn't leave out anything, and if you do there is a severe punishment for it." He permitted bad warned while sitting back to make sure he missed anything."I got married to Camila wh
