Is this a joke? Five hundred thousand and a public apology?”

Lois was not aware of all that transpired between the Fullams and Top Notch Group. She had spent most of the day shopping at the market. She was shocked at everything Rieka said.

“It's not a joke! Father gave the order and I ensured everything was carried out.” Gad said.

“This is good news!” Lois cheered.

Immediately, Lois called Jack to return home so she could confirm the evidence of the transaction from him. Getting to know what led to the credit alert he got, he was amazed.

“Rieka,” he said. “How did this happen?”

Rieka smiled. “It's not time for stories but grandfather gave his approval. I'm back home too!”

“This has never happened before! I am glad!”Jack cheered

“Why are you glad?” Lois snapped. “You've not provided anything in this house for a day. For getting the sum of five hundred thousand, you are elated. Are you for real? It's a good thing that because of Rieka the family has remembered you but what can that mon

    “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

    Minutes passed by and the groom was nowhere to be found.Lois covered her face in shame and cursed inwardly.‘Rieka isn’t a lucky child. Just imagine the dignitaries present at this wedding and yet the groom is not present.’‘Could it be someone is trying to humiliate my daughter?”The guests were tired and a voice rang out coldly.“Is this a scene in a movie?”Soon whispers filled the air.“We’ve been waiting for long, let’s just leave.”“The groom must have eloped.”Only the soldiers present in the hall remained calm.Just ten, they heard a blaring siren approaching.Soon, silence filled the air again.Tears were already welling in Rieka’s eyes. She bowed her head slightly in shame.A man cladded in his soldier uniform with many stars on it approached the podium and whispered to the clergyman.The man was the Grand Commander.At this point, the Grand Commander held the microphone, and happily, he said.“Today, we have two celebrations. Permit me to welcome the new Chief of Army Staf

    Noah smiled, “Sincerely, she owns a dear place in my heart.” With a serious expression, Noah asked. “Do you think getting hitched with her again is a good idea?”Andy nodded. “Of course, she’s the only woman you’ve ever loved.”“Okay! Let’s have a quiet walk then.”Meanwhile, at the Fullams’ residence.“Can’t you talk sense to your daughter? Is this how she wants to end her life?”Lois uttered coldly as she looked at Jack.Jack tilted his head.“It is her life; her choice and I cannot influence her decision because you want me to.”Lois widened her lips and asked. “Are you serious?”Coldly, Rieka said. “Mom, I have a lot to deal with. What is all this about?”“If you wait from now till infinity, Noah will not welcome you into his life. Beauty fades, you have to give another man a chance. I’ve spoken to some rich folks and they all agreed to get married to you not minding that you are a divorcee.”After saying that, Lois angrily left.Rieka stared at the space. Thoughts of Noah grippe

    “What?”Santos expressed and gave a mocking laugh. “Who do you think you are?”Just then, he pulled out a gun and pointed it at Noah.Andy and Giddy also pulled out their guns and pointed at Santos.“I have nothing against you. I can see your greed and selfish interest is what is making you want the position of the Chief of Army staff at all cost.”Slowly, Noah approached Santos.“One more step and I’ll pull the trigger.” Santos roared.Noah sighed and he took another step. Bang!Santos pulled the trigger.Swiftly, Noah dodged it.Thank goodness no one was standing behind him.“All that happened here has been recorded. It would be used against you. You are not even worthy to be called a soldier.”Noah uttered with a frown.“Against me? We’ll see about that.”Santos said confidently.“No matter what, being soldiers, we are one,” Noah said as his eyes scanned through everyone present. For no just cause, Santos Junek wants to get rid of me. From his action, you all can see that he is n

    At that moment, Santos picked up his phone and placed a call.“Hi Santos, is anything the matter? You hardly call me.”“Jacob, I can see you know me well. We need to meet tonight, it's urgent.”Jacob was a high-ranked soldier and he was a member of the military council.All along, Jacob has been the one giving information to Santos about all that was happening because Santos handsomely rewarded him. Jacob was also a close friend of the former Chief of Army Staff.Now, he felt something was happening and he couldn’t figure it out. He had to hear from Jacob.Nevertheless, Jacob had assured him that he would become the next Chief of Army staff.Meanwhile, at the Supreme Ruler’s residence in the military base.Noah, Andy, and Giddy were standing.Noah rubbed his forehead and said, “This is more complicated than I had imagined. I don’t want to get rid of anyone but I can’t help but defend myself.”“I have a suggestion.” Giddy paused. Then he continued, “Let us visit Santos. Not to harm him

    Noah glanced at the Grand Commander. The news about who will become the next Chief of Army was yet to be announced publicly.“I have an urgent assignment to do here and it has to be kept a secret. Apart from all of us here, who witnessed my arrival, no one must know that I have returned.”Noah was led to a large room. It was the Supreme Ruler’s room in Fristico.Ever since Noah left, no one had dwelled in the room. However, the maids always kept it tidied daily.Noah freshened up and sat on the couch as he stared at the space.Knock, Knock, Knock.Some knocked on the door.Noah had already made it clear that he wanted to be left alone till he said otherwise.Who then was knocking on the door?With a frown, Noah went to open the door.Noah welcomed a man and a woman in.“You, so you had plans of coming too. Why didn’t you just say it? Did you have to make it a surprise?”Noah said with a smile beaming on his face.“I had to come along with her. We can’t just leave you. You need us mor

    “Santos Junek?” Lois replied with a smile.“I have never heard of that name before. Why will he take interest in me without approaching me for once?” Rieka said with an arched brow.Lois sighed, “It’s possible you’ve not been paying attention to other men because of Noah. He gave me his card so anytime you are ready to see him, it is just a call away. I also heard he is a military man. From the convoy I saw accompanying him, I can confidently say he is far richer than Noah. Getting hitched with him will make Noah regret ever treating you in this manner.”“Hmm!” Rieka reasoned with what Lois said. A thought of revenge crept into her heart.Why was Rieka having such thoughts? Having a relationship with someone wasn’t by force.“Give me his card, I’ll call him. I want to get some information from him.”Rieka asked politely.Lois picked a card that was on the table and handed it to Rieka.So fast, Rieka picked up her phone and called the number which was on the card.“Hi, It’s Rieka.

    Noah felt getting hitched with Rieka would complicate things further especially for her.Noah looked at Rieka and said, “I have to leave now.”With a smile filled with pretense, Rieka nodded.Noah and Andy left.At the Supreme Villa.Noah was resting when the doorbell rang.Andy answered the door.“Welcome! To what do we owe this visit.”Andy said to a man who was fully clad in a military uniform.The man walked with Andy following behind him.“Have a seat,” Noah said.The grand commander took his seat and stared at Noah.Due to his influence, the grand commander was aware of what transpired over the night.“Noah, you went on that mission without seeking my assistance.”The grand commander said with an arched brow.Noah smiled. “I did not want to disturb you, you were busy. You gave me the information I needed and that’s enough.”“That’s not the main reason why I’m here.” The grand commander cleared his throat.“Hmm, why are you here then?” Noah asked curiously.The grand commander e

    Coldly, Dex replied. “I am Dex Grichy. You murdered my father and my aunt. Do you think you will be able to escape death now? I wanted it to be so peaceful but you complicated everything by killing our men.” “A member of the Grichys family?”Noah shook his head. With an indifferent tone, Noah said, “They all deserved to die. They paid for their actions. Why didn’t you come for me directly? Why did you have to involve Rieka in all this?”Mockingly, Dex said.“Noah, you are not remorseful. Well, I’d like to see what you can do when your legs are no longer active.”Dex pulled a dagger out and raised the gun he was holding. Then he said,“Choose your death.”Noah kept quiet.“Can’t you talk? Should I decide for you?”Inwardly, Noah was devising how he was going to get rid of Dex without Rieka getting hurt.Finally, Noah spoke.“I don’t want to know why you are doing all this. However, I promise that I’ll obey you as long you don’t kill her.”Dex nodded, “I won’t hurt her. By the way, she

    After some minutes of discussion, they made their way to the entrance of the warehouse. They ensured their boots didn’t make any noise that would draw attention to them.Jenny said with a low voice. “This is the only gate that leads us in. However, there might be other access points known by the people who work here.”Clack! Clack!Soon, they heard the sounds of boots walking about. They were from the men who were watching over the warehouse.With the help of Andy, they swiftly passed through the gates without making a sound.With a low tone, Noah said. “Let’s split into two. Some will follow me to the left while others will follow Andy and Jenny to the right.”So, fast they did that.“Ahh,” one of Jenny’s squad members yelled. She had hit her leg against a stone which made her fall. She was with Noah alongside six others.“Who is that?”A voice rang out as they heard footsteps approaching in their direction.Noah quickly lifted her.Shuu!Noah gestured as he placed his hands on his
