They got down from the car and made their way to the entrance, Sebastien placed his hand around her waist as they entered the company's reception which consisted of a grand lobby and the reception area.

They walked towards the reception area and an old woman was seated behind the desk, writing something on a huge log book. She looked up when she sensed our presence and then she smiled at Sebastien. “Good day, sir” the woman greeted politely even though it was obvious that she was older than him.

Sebastien replied with a polite nod.”Thank you ma'am and good day”

There were a lot of people on the queue waiting to be attended to but Sebastien just stood by the side even though Isabelle suggested they take a seat otherwise they'll stand for hours but Sebastien

    At Roland's mansion, Roland was still busy plotting how he'll execute his plans, when his phone rang and it was his friend, he picked it up. “hello! Hello! I really need your help.” Roland said frantically. It was almost dawn and they still hadn't gotten any notification from Chesterfield investment company. Miranda was out on an errand so this was the perfect time to make this call. “What do you need?” His friend questioned, wondering why Roland was sounding this way.“I need your signature. I want to forge a partnership agreement and you are the only person that can help me” Roland said, his friend, Leo, who is a lawyer is the only person capable of bailing him out of this situation. “Hold on! Hold on! I do think I'll be able to do that, I can get my certificate revoked if anyone finds out. Sorry bro, but that's too risky” Leo quickly backed away, he couldn't bear the thought of losing a certificate he spent more than five years schooling to get.“No, just listen to me. There's n

Isabelle and Sebastien sat next to each other and Miranda and Roland sat next to each other.“As you all know, the three days grace I gave you is up and I need you all to state your progress one after the other” master Wilson instructed them.Miranda's face was still quite swollen from Romero's slap. It was obvious because she winced every now and then. “Grandfather, are you just going to go straight to that? Wouldn't you at least reprimand them again for allowing Romero to slap me!”“I already reprimanded them, Miranda. And I think that is more than enough”“but grandfather, Romero and I were having dinner peacefully until they came in” she then pointed in their direction, “they made him slap me!” “We didn't make him slap you. You got what you deserve because you are a rude b*tch!” Sebastien threw back at her.“That's a lie! If not for me Romero wouldn

    Isabelle was so happy, she now had some money to get basic things she needed. If she asked Sebastien, she was sure that he would've given her the money but she didn't want to bother him. They had to wait in the house for lunch, because master Wilson insisted that they do that. So after he rested for a while he came downstairs and the table had already been set. The long ornate table was set with China crystal glasses and sparkling silverware. A crisp white table cloth adorned the table with a delicate lace trim adding a touch of elegance. Lunch in the Wilson's household was always extravagant!Master Wilson sat at the head of the table, blessed the food and they began eating. Miranda scrunched up her face, “why is this retard seating at the same table as us? Isn't that an insult?!”Isabelle just glared at her, “Keep quiet Miranda! This retard here took part in helping Isabelle recover the debt. This is the least we could do for him!” Master Wilson said, he wasn't in the mood for h

    “But come to think of it, there's no way a retard should be able to afford forty million dollars. Yet alone spend it on an earring. Roland, are you sure your payment did not go through, regardless of whether it was out of stock or not? You know it could have been a website glitch” Tony, another cousin of Isabelle who didn't like her said. Roland, who knew he didn't even have the money to buy it even if it was available, nodded and said, “yes, that is true. Because I even inputted my credit card pin!” All these while master Wilson had finished lunch and gone back to his room. Miranda felt delighted at that and she stood up, regaining her confidence “you this liar! How did a retard like you get money to buy Jessica wright's limited edition earring” The earring box was placed on the table so Miranda snatched it and held it close to herself line a priceless jewel. “Oh, I knew this just had to be for me, afterall the delivery guy even said for ‘miss wilson’ and last time I checked

    Isabelle was even more surprised, any time money to be paid was made mention of. Sebastien was always quick to extend a hand of help. And he always ended up getting mocked at the end of the day.“No! You always say you will give money or spend money but at the end of the day you end up stealing it!” Adeline attacked him.Adeline made mention of that as if knowing that was what Isabelle was also thinking about. They cleared the debt together. It looked like it was because of Sebastien but they later discovered that Charles had a role to play. The Jessica wright's limited edition earring, everyone thought it was bought by Sebastien, meanwhile it was bought by Ronald. “Master Wilson called to tell me that you nearly created a scene at the house! Tell me, why would you do that! If you didn't buy something do not claim that it was bought by you. We all know you are a retard, don't try to sugar-coat and be what you are not!” Adeline attacked him, she was tired of the constant shame Sebasti

The bank was very beautiful with green carpet grass in the front yard and a beautiful artistic design.Sebastien and Isabelle came down from the car and they walked side by side into the building through the automatic glass door at the entrance.The first person they saw when they walked in was Amos, the mean man from yesterday. “I want to have a meeting with the manager,” Sebastien said, not even bothering to exchange greetings first. He just went straight to the point.Amos who witnessed the whole drama between Adeline and Sebastien yesterday just burst out laughing, “when that woman referred to you as a retard yesterday, I thought she was just joking but now you have really shown me that you are a retard! Manager?” He burst out laughing again.Isabelle was shocked at his outburst. What was wrong if Sebastien said he wanted to see the manager of the bank.“So what is wrong if I want to see your manager? How does that make me a retard?!” S

They are not worth our time”Then they turned to leave, then candly asked Sebastien and Isabelle, “what exactly are you both here for?”“I want to pay the debt we owe the company and shouldn't you add sir and ma when addressing customers?!” Sebastien queried her.Miranda stopped in her tracks when she heard that, Sebastien wants to pay the debt, “Do you even have the money? I didn't know that is what you both are even here for. Because why are you wasting everybody's time. You clearly do not have the money so stop bothering Bright Spring Bank!”Isabelle was also surprised when she heard that his plan was to pay the money. She even thought he came to plead with Tony Wilson. Sebastien brought a card out of his pocket, it was a customized Bright Spring Bank card. It was a card that the bank normally gave to their Very Very Very important people!Isabelle gasp

She was extremely terrified. “Sebastien, this is worse than I thought. There are gangsters causing issues at the company. The entrance is blocked and everything has come to a halt. We are in dire need of help” Adeline rambled as soon as Sebastien picked up the call. “Calm down,” Sebastien said, “I would be there shortly. In the meantime, stay safe” Sebastien said, then the call ended after he assured Adeline that everything would be fine. Sebastien knew there was nothing he could do from home and he needed to see for himself what was really going on. So, he prepared to head over to the hunt’s resource company.

Her worry intensified when she saw the reaction of the masses to the news. People believed the accusations and Adeline found it surprising. Who could have really started this thing? Adeline picked up her phone and dialed Sebastien’s number, “have you seen what is on the news?” She asked immediately Sebastien picked up the call. “What is wrong?” Sebastien asked, noticing the worry in her voice. He had been busy the entire morning so he hadn’t even gone through social media or turned on the television. “There is a malicious article against the Hunt’s resource company” Adeline exclaimed. “Calm down,” Sebastien said over the phone to stop Adeline from panicking a whole lot. “I would check the news now and I would s

In fact, she boasted about the company whenever she was in the midst of her friends.Adeline had earlier asked Sebastien if there was any form of promotion or advertisement that he was providing the resource company with but Sebastien told her that there wasn’t any. The total profit made by the company that month was ten million dollars which was double of what they made the previous month. **************Romero Pierson, motivated by the sum of money promised to him by Tony Wilson, gathered a few of his subordinates and began to issue orders to them. “Welcome everyone, I believe you are all aware of the hunt’s resource company and how in the last two months they have managed to monopoliz

Any problem with that?” “Not at all. Just that she hasn’t stopped ringing it in my ears that she is the head of such a fast rising company and I’m sure her friends are also suffering the same thing” Isabelle said.Sebastien chuckled, “well, that is great news then.” Isabelle nodded in agreement with Sebastien, “yeah, I haven’t seen her this happy in a while. It seems like this is something she always wanted” Isabelle said. Truly, after Isabelle’s father travelled out of the country. There was a terrible decline in Adeline’s business and that led to it eventually folding up because she was running at a loss. “I’m glad to have been able to offer that to her,” Sebastien said calmly. “Thank you so much!” Isabelle said with a huge grin planted on her face. “But, you still didn’t tell me how you were able to acquire the

Violet resumed her duties normally, gradually overcoming the fear of Miranda previously instilled in her. Miranda on the other hand was glad when three weeks passed without her hearing of any attempt from Isabelle. Miranda felt so pleased with herself at the fact that she had managed to get away with what she did, unscathed. Isabelle majorly decided to take a break from the entire issue because she wouldn’t want to lose her job because of Miranda or make master Wilson angry. **********************Tony Wilson’s heart skipped a beat when his phone rang for the fifth time within two minutes, he checked the caller Id and saw that it was a call from the company he took a loan from earlier.

Isabelle couldn’t come up with any possible explanation as to why the file became corrupted. It all didn’t make sense to her. And to add to all that, Isabelle knew master Wilson’s view of her had changed drastically. Sebastien tried to console Isabelle all through the journey back to their mansion because he knew Isabelle was feeling really terrible about the whole thing which was understandable. Isabelle kept on trying to retrieve the video but she wasn’t still able to get it. She began doubting if master Wilson would give her a second chance to prove that Miranda was just pretending. ******************Master Wilson walked into Miranda’s bedroom later that evening. Miranda upon sighting him appeared to be morose. “Sorry about what happened earlier” master Wilson thought it right to just apologise on behalf of Isabelle for their baseless accusations. “I’m

Isabelle just kept on checking out of instinct because she still found it surreal that they had managed to catch Miranda on live camera. “Okay, let me see what you have managed to gather,” Master Wilson said, after they explained to him that they had gotten concrete evidence. Miranda stood at the top of the stairs, her heart racing within her chest as she eavesdropped on the conversation Isabelle and Sebastien were having with master Wilson.Miranda watched as Isabelle brought out a small shiny substance and she immediately knew that it was her ring!She couldn’t believe that she was so careless that she didn’t think of the fact that they

    Chapter 134: heated moment

    Chapter 134Isabelle was so disturbed at work the next day because she had gotten a text from Violet very early that morning. Violet had complained about Miranda sending her a message, requesting for her assistance. Violet said Miranda didn’t mention the form of assistance she needed, but she added a threatening message warning Violet that she would face severe consequences if she refused the offer. Or tries to avoid her further. At the time Violet was mentioning this to Isabelle, she hadn’t replied to Miranda’s message and Isabelle wasn’t sure if she would have replied now. Isabelle placed a finger on the bridge of her nose as she drew in a deep breath. Isabelle was instantly filled with guilt as she realised that Violet is going through all these now because of her involvement. Maybe if she hadn’t accepted to become the head of department, Violet wouldn’t have been dragged into all this mess. It was Friday, and the last day of the week. So, Isabelle made up her mind to visit mas
