“Are you playing dumb?” Camily yelled.Rieka didn't know how she could manage the nuisance Camily was constituting. It didn't speak well to potential customers.She stood speechless, gazing at Camily.“It's about Brucy Kings. You are not among the caliber of ladies he deals with.”“The pathetic thing is you are married to a wretched man and still flirting. I've heard you both are lovers, stay away from Brucy at all costs! He belongs to me!”Rieka became furious and her expression darkened.“How dare you accuse me of such? What did I ever do to you that warrants this embarrassment?” Rieka yelled.“You are such a pretender,” Camily said as she slapped Rieka.“What?” Rieka's colleagues were left in shock at what just happened.Rieka held her cheeks in pain as tears welled in her eyes.“Enough ma'am! You can't embarrass a staff member for no justified reason.” Deril walked up to them.Rieka bowed her head in shame, avoiding the gaze of her colleagues.“And who are you?”“I won't leave til
In the chairman's office. He rested his back on his executive chair, pondering on what happened earlier.He had been expecting a member of the Swelvys family to call him for a better explanation.He wasn't scared of them but he knew Camily was capable of exaggerating the whole thing. She could sue the company in court and ask the company to pay for damages.She was such a spoiled child.He was aware that as young as Camily was she was interested in him despite the age difference definitely because of his wealth.If only she knew who Rieka's husband was, her entire lineage would worship at his feet. His thoughts were diverted when someone walked in.It was Noah.Rieka wasn't aware that Noah hadn't gone home. He had been waiting for her to be engrossed with work while he used the back route to the chairman's office.Fidgeting, he said. “Supreme Ruler! I am sorry for what happened earlier.”Noah didn't reply. He sat opposite Brucy.After watching the way most of Rieka's colleagues mocke
Today, the management of Top Notch Group organized a guest-together event for the staff members and shareholders at Pavilion Center.Each staff member had the opportunity to come along with one person. And Rieka went along with Noah.Everyone was seated and paid attention to the various speeches about the administration's achievements in the last two years.It was time for everyone to move and interact with each other.Ussy was about to say something when Kendra interrupted him.“Oh, look who we have here! Fullam's miserable son-in-law. All he is enjoying now is because of Rieka. He is not fit to be present at such an occasion.Kendra had access to the event because of Ussy Swelvys, her fiance and he also has some shares in the company.However, Noah paid deaf ears to her while Rieka was engrossed in scrolling through her phone.“Pretend like they are not here, let's enjoy the moment, Kendra,” Ussy advised.“The company has recorded a high percentage of profit.”“I must commend the st
Since Noah could afford it, what would have stopped Elias from doing the same? Elias settled the bills for the entrance ticket and now they were all in the VVIP section. In the long run, the ticket f*e was worth it because of the luxury and expensive things in the section. The VVIP section was a sweet haven, no wonder it had lots of restrictions. “Wow!” Kendra couldn't hide her love for the beautiful environment. Kendra was busy taking pictures that she would post on her social media handles when she noticed a gigantic aquarium. Just a few individuals were seen sitting around it. The aquarium gave that side an ambiance as though they were having a nice time on a ship. Words wouldn't do justice to the beauty! “Let's check what's over there,” Kendra said. She couldn't take her eyes off the first-class treatment the people there were getting. “Alright! This arena is bigger than I ever imagined!” Ussy said as he looked at Elias. “This is unbelievable! Elias, is that not Noah and
When they arrived, Rieka was still shocked. If she had access to that section at the pavilion, who then was that man who offered to pay the bill for the damages Noah did? “Noah, who was that man who offered to pay up the bills?” “I don't know him! I'll call him a good Samaritan because I did not know how I was going to clear that bill.” Noah added, “What if he was one of your secret admirers? By the way, the ticket to that section was in your name!” Noah rubbed his temples. “Hmm, good people still exist!” Noah on the other hand was exhausted. Soon, he fell asleep. “Amidst all the people there, why was he the only one who showed concern?” “How do we see him to appreciate him again?” Rieka kept giving her thoughts about the good Samaritan. When she got no response from him, she noticed Noah was long asleep. The next day, Saturday, it was time for Rieka and Noah to go shopping. Lois had written a long list of all she wanted. Going through the list, Rieka realized
“Who owns this?Lois and Kendra wore a surprised expression. How did the black card get here?Rieka had widened her mouth in shock.Only first-class citizens are entitled to such cards!“Noah, it fell off your pocket! Who owns it?” Lois asked, with her tone coated with curiosity.“Do you know what it takes to have this card? In this city, just a few individuals possess it and it takes a long procedure before it gets approved.” Kendra couldn't help but explain.“Yeah, you are right! But the card is not mine.” Noah replied.How could he tell them he got the card because he was the Supreme Ruler? They'll assume he was out of his senses! Noah didn't want to reveal his identity yet “Who owns it then?”Lois and Kendra questioned in unison. Rieka was speechless and rested her hands on the couch to see how Noah would sort it out.Noah rubbed his forehead as though he felt an ache before he said. “It belongs to a good Samaritan!”“Good Samaritan? Who could that be?”Lois asked as she looked
The next day, Ussy and Elias visited the Fullams villa. They came around to wish Kendra a happy birthday. “Happy birthday Kendra, many happy returns of the year!” Kendra was filled with joy, then she replied. “Thank you. It would be nice if we all went out to celebrate my birthday or what do you think?” “Y-Yeah! That's a nice idea. Let's all get ready.” Lois said happily. Lois loved hanging out and showing off. She knew with Elias present, they were going to spend a lot and have a nice time. “It would be nice if Rieka also came along. We should celebrate as one big family. It's an opportunity to rewind, relax, and feel good.” Elias spoke in this manner because he craved Rieka to become his wife and he saw it as an opportunity to have her attention. And this could only happen if Rieka attends the birthday hangout. Now, Lois understands beyond what Elias said. “Of course, she'll join us.” Lois giggled. Lois, Kendra, and Ussy rode with Elias in his car, while Rieka,
“Let's leave!” Rieka pulled Noah's arm and left with him walking side by side. “Was that necessary? Pouring the drink on him was too extreme.” “He also went to the extreme for speaking to you in that matter. I couldn't take it.” Noah shook his head. They were fond of downgrading and humiliating Rieka. Doing it in public and not even by a family member but a family friend was the height of it. Rieka sighed. She knew Noah was trying to protect her, but her family wouldn't let it go easily. “My daughter has fallen into the wrong hands,” Lois muttered as she watched them leave. She expected Rieka to stay back while they lambasted Noah but she took her leave with him. “They've succeeded in disrupting our happy moments. Why does Rieka have to do this always?” Kendra spoke. They poured all the blame on Rieka! Next, Elias spoke. “How about you get Rieka to divorce Noah? I am a member of Ariel's family and you know what that means. Do this and you'll be greatly rewarded.” With
