Justin walked into the mansion and headed straight to his room without greeting anybody. As he got to his room, his phone started ringing, he shoved his hand into the pocket, brought out the phone, checked the caller ID and picked it. "Good evening Gilbert." He greeted with a tired tone and sat on the bed. "Yes good evening, I want to inform you about Andrian's arrival." "I know he is back, what are we going to do? Should we introduce Moore to him now or we wait for a while?." Justin asked. "We have to introduce Moore to him quickly in order to retrieve all the properties from him." Gilbert rushed the words. "Why are you sounding desperate? Is there anything you are not telling me?." Justin asked with knitted brows. He knew there must be a reason for that. "I am not hiding anything from you, I was actually doing something with I called you, was about losing that was why I sounded that way." Gilbert defended himself, Justin was not satisfied with that answer but he doesn't want to
"Why are you all looking at me like that." Frank asked as he descended the stairs with a bright smile."Dad I know everything is not going well lately but at least scold Moore for the money he stole and not support him." Claudia persuaded in a lower tone."He didn't steal any money from her, Georgia intentionally kept it in his luggage to make sure everybody see him as a bad person just as she is." He revealed with his two hands shoved into his pocket."I'm I telling a lie here?." He asked Georgia whose face was downcasted."Mum is he saying the truth?." Claudia asked."Don't worry she won't be able to say anything for defense. Seriously, I don't know what your problem is with this boy, you always make sure he is accused of something. I really wanted to blame you but you are not to be blamed you actually learnt everything from your mentor." He threw shades at Georgia and her father. Georgia wanted to speak but refrained herself from doing so. Frank turned to Claudia."I always thought
Fleet of cars rode through the beautiful estate slowly, a very wide gate was opened, the cars were driven in. As the cars stopped, Gilbert was the first to get off the car, followed by Moore and the other Elders. Andrian was standing outside waiting for them."Welcome back." Gilbert greeted him, they continued to exchange pleasantries."Let's go in." Andrian summoned them, they all entered."Who is this guy? I haven't seen him before." Andrian asked, the Elders exchanged glances before Gilbert spoke up."Yes, he is Moore the new Giovanni." Gilbert introduced, Andrian was surprised."The Giovanni???." He asked out of surprise and looked at Justin and he felt guilty."I really wanted to tell you but I wasn't permitted to do that, it is confidential." Justin defended himself."What do you want me to do now?." He asked angrily, Moore was trying so hard to remember where he has seen him before."Rian???." He spoke out, Andrian turned to him."You don't have the right to call me that only
Moore was worried about what happened at Andrian's house and what happened in the mansion."Claudia is yet to come in and I don't even know what Andrian might be thinking about." He muttered silently, looking stressed.The door opened a smile flashed on his face thinking it was Claudia who finally decide to come home but turned out to be Justin."How are you doing?." He asked, walking in fully."I'm not fine Justin, why does everything have to happen in one night? I was still thinking of what to do concerning Andrian and another thing happened." Moore complained bitterly."Concerning Andrian, I think you need to communicate with him to be sincere, I wouldn't just hand over what I worked hard for to someone who doesn't know how I did it. I'm sorry for the offensive word but that is the truth. I really tried to convince him but he wouldn't even hear me out." Justin suggested to him."You are absolutely right, I guess nobody will do that as well but he should have had it at the back of h
Claudia was returning from work, Georgia opened the door and jammed her hands together. "Please try to hear me out." She pleaded with a faint voice."No I'm not going to hear you out Mum, you almost destroyed my life. I don't even know who my father alm I know is that I have a father but don't know who he is or what he looks like." She snapped at her."I have realised my mistake please find a place in your heart to forgive me. Remember all the times I have done joyful things for you. No matter how clean human is, we will still make mistakes." She tried to make her forgive her.Claudia was moved by her tears and emotional words, she also want to cry but held back herself.She wanted to stay angry at her Mum but it didn't work because she has been her voice where she was voiceless multiple times."You know I can't stay angry with you for long, I forgive you but you have to earn Dad's forgiveness before I can forgive you with my whole heart." Claudia said, Georgia hugged her daughter ti
Moore didn't go straight to work instead he went to Andrian's house to know more about the properties since reading them alone won't help him to understand.The door was automatically opened for him when he got in. Andrian was no where in sight so he took that opportunity to look around."You are here so early." Andrian said from behind as he was admiring a paint."Yes, thank you so much for what you did yesterday I really appreciate it." Moore appreciated it."We are friends so I don't think appreciating me will be necessary." He waved it off and sat down, Moore sat down beside him."How has been your life, I know you must have had a wife and maybe a kid." Moore said with a smile, He returned the same energy."I don't have any of what you mentioned, I was surprised when I was told you ve gotten marriage." "I was not prepared for it at all but I don't see myself as a married man because she doesn't know me as one." He explained to him in a lower tone."That must be painful but at lea
Moore felt something was wrong, he looked at where Victoria was but she was there, he looked to the left and saw some people carrying her on their shoulders what surprised him the most was that nobody was bothered about it at all. He stood up and ran after those boys in anger. He was stopped by a man who was at the door looking dangerous. "Where did they take her to?." He questioned him. The guy responded with a blow but Moore was fast enough to grab his hand and twisted it before kicking him hard on his stomach. He fell down immediately due to the pain, Moore broke the door in and met a guy pulling his trousers to lay with Victoria who was laid on the bed almost half naked. "Let her go right now." He yelled at them angrily, Ralph and his partner Ace laughed out. "Nobody can stop us except Giovanni himself." Ace boasted. "What if I tell you that I am..." Moore stopped when Victoria started rolling on the bed. "Can I see you for few seconds and please don't do anything to her unt
Gilbert and Jedidiah were both shocked to hear that from Reed. "Please tell us who he gave them to." Gilbert pleaded. Reed raised his left hand, two guards walked in and escorted them out of the room, they dare not fight them. "Do you think he was saying the truth?." She asked when they got to the car. "I am trying to understand what he said. I saw those documents when Andrian arrived from New Zealand, even if he wants to give it to someone else it wouldn't be in this city and it wouldn't be that fast. On the other hand, Reed doesn't give a false information." Gilbert laid out his point of view. "That was what got me confused, the only place he went to after his arrival was the bar and club." She added and sighed. They were still thinking when Gilbert spoke. "What if he handed everything over to Moore behind our backs?." He asked, she sat properly looked at him and laughed. "Seriously Gilbert, that is the dumbest thing you ve ever think of. It is so funny." She laughed at him.
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
