Andrian was already seated waiting for Moore at the bar. He ordered a red wine to step down for a while before he arrived. "Oh you are here already." Moore said as he walked in, he stood up immediately. "Yes I am, it won't be nice for you to be here before me sir." Andrian replied respectfully and bowed, Moore released a chuckle. "You are disgracing me with the respect you have for me. I'm Moore, your best friend and I don't think there should be any respect between us." Moore corrected and sat down. "That's where you are wrong, being your friend doesn't give me the right to disrespect you." "Okay then, you can respect me in front of everyone when the issues are ironed out and you disrespect me whenever we are alone. It is an order from Giovanni to Andrian, an Elder and it must not change." He ordered in a deep voice. "Alright I will do as you have said." He obeyed. "I would like to work in a small company, working under Gilbert is very dangerous for me because they might try to
"Are you actually saying the truth? Or did you just make up that story to make me trust you guys?." Moore asked in confusion. "We are saying the truth sir." Ace assured. "Prove yourself because Alfred didn't know me before the incidence." "You are right about Alfred not knowing you. On that day, we saw you gulping down several bottles of liquor, then, he told us to use you for the job since the person we wanted to use was out of sight." Ralph paused and looked at Moore for an observation of his expression. He pulled a calm look which made him continue. "We made sure you ve drank yourself to stupor, we carried and placed you beside Claudia who was also drugged." He finished his explanation, they bowed their heads while expecting Moore's next action. Moore was saddened by the revelation, he has been living with his enemy for a long time without even noticing it. But he has a very important question to ask them. "Did anything happen between Claudia and I?." "Nothing happened, bef
"You haven't provided answers to my questions." Moore reminded calmly."Firstly, Collins is not my boyfriend we are just friends. Truly, he wanted to date me but I can't say either no or yes to him because he is the person I need so badly to grow the company since I couldn't get to Giovanni. I don't even love him." She explained in details, Moore gave out a relieved sigh. Claudia has really given him a great information, he could no longer think of their affair which didn't exist in the first place."Thank you." He appreciated, took her right hand and kissed it gently.They raised their eyes and locked gazes, the door cracked opened which distracted the tension that was arising."What's happening here?." Justin asked as he bursted into the room. The couple turned to face him."Good evening uncle." Claudia greeted, ignoring his questions."Answer my question." "We are just having a nice time as a couple and I know you will be happy with it because that's what you ve always wanted." M
Moore scrolled into Gilbert's company to get the little stuff he has in his office. The previous night ended on a sad note, Claudia was hurt that the uncle she trusted only wanted her to do things because of money.While Moore was going out this morning she asked about his movement since Justin had already told them that he doesn't have a job again. His only response were ; "Truly I don't have a job in Gilbert's company but I will be moving to one of Giovanni's company. All I need is your prayers because any mistake from me will make them snatch away the job from me." He stated, Claudia hugged and bade him goodbye."Hey Moore, how are you doing?." Camila asked from behind. Moore turned to her with a sad expression on his face."I'm not fine Camila, couldn't still believe that I will leave this company in few minutes time." He said in a broken voice. She was surprised to hear that from him."When did you resign without letting me know?." She asked out of shock."I didn't resign from t
Jedidiah staggered at Gilbert's outburst. "You just yelled at me." She said with a small smile."Yes and I will do that again, you can't just walk into my office and tell me what to do." Gilbert fired back, Camila scoffed and sat down on the sofa with her legs crossed."Do you realise you are talking to Jedidiah? Your sweetheart." She reminded with an unbelievable look on her face. Never had she thought that he would do that to her one day."I know that, you lost your value completely the day Moore didn't get the properties. Do you think a man in his senses will get married to a wh*re like you? Do you think I don't how you go about sleeping with men just to barge a contract? Including the Elders. You have no shame at all." Gilbert insulted loudly, Jedidiah still couldn't believe."Someone should pinch me back into reality, I am dreaming." She said and closed her eyes hoping by the time she would open her eyes everything she heard would have being a dream.Camila stood up, walked towar
"Have your seat youngman." Loveth summoned him as soon as they got in. "Thank you." He appreciated it and sat down while she went to seat also. "Good day, I am Loveth. Are you truly here based on Mr Andrian's order?." "Yes I am, he asked me to come this morning." He answered humbly, Loveth sighed in confusion. "The thing is Mr Andrian hasn't passed an information for a long time, we are only working based on the instructions given to us by Carmen. I think that was why you were insulted by them." She explained to him. "Oh I understand, I will give Mr Andrian a call to confirm, or maybe I got scammed." Moore said, he was convinced enough but Andrian should have been there. He took out his phone and dialled his number, he picked up almost immediately. "I'm so sorry, I was scheduled for a very early morning meeting and thought I would be done within a short period of time." "Okay sir." "Don't worry, I'm already in the compound. Where are you right now?." "I'm in Miss Loveth's o
The doctor turned to Gilbert who was standing behind him. "How is she now?." He asked worriedly. "She is going to be okay. It was the mild shock which made her fainted like that. She would be conscious any minute from now." He informed, Gilbert gave out a sigh of relief. "That's a great relief, I thought I would be losing a great person." "No she is not going to die, all she needs now is rest. Please sir, don't let her work too much." The doctor informed, Gilbert nodded at his words then the doctor left. He sat down on a seat beside them bed with mixed expression on his face, he really want to leave her side badly but his workers will think orderwise and no traces must be left behind. After waiting for 30 minutes, he stood up and made to leave but someone grabbed him his right hand. He turned to see who it was, it turned out to be Jedidiah. "You are finally awake, I thought you would die with the way you passed out. Unfortunately, you are still alive. It is still okay at least y
Claudia sat on the sofa operating on her laptop when Moore stepped in. "Good evening Claud." He greeted tiredly, some tilted her head to the back and stood up. "You are welcome darling." She returned the greetings with a smile, he was surprised to hear that from her. "Thank you." He appreciated it, she walked towards him, placed a peck on his lips and hugged him. "Wow this is new." He said, he wanted to keep it in but it was forced out. "Yes, I'm sorry for everything I have done to you in the past, I was just blinded by my desires and the advices people gave to me." She apologized sincerely. Moore disengaged from the hug and cupped her cheek in his palms. "I appreciate your apology and I'm truly happy. Don't worry I get used to the couple thing." They laughed at that. He brought his face closer to hers, she closed her eyes yearning to feel his lips. "What's going on here?." Collins asked as he walked in, they quickly disengaged from the action due to the shout. "What do you m
