Jeffrey chuckled uncontrollably, “The almighty Ryan Baker. You think I don’t know you, You think you can go around and spoil any plan you want. I have already paid for the spot and I wouldn’t want a refund. All I want is to spend time with my baby and none of you here would do anything about it.” Jeffrey Nil said, kissing the lady on her lips and his right hand behind her waist. Ryan remembered his face clearly, his wife is a business partner with Ryan’s real estate company. “How shameless are you? You left your wife at home and came here with a little girl that’s supposed to be your daughter’s age mate. You are nothing but a shame and disgrace to your family.” Ryan blurted out, his statements made the customers giggle slightly. This made Jeffrey angry, the lady with him glared at Ryan disdainfully. “What are you talking about and how is that your business?” Jeffrey said countering Ryan. Jeffrey paused and continued. “You had better stay off my lane and allow me to enjoy my date,
“What are you doing here?” Jeffrey abruptly asked.He knew what was set to befall him, so he chose to ask first. While trying to defend himself. “I should be asking you the same question, where is she?” She said with a harsh voice.“Where is who?” Jeffrey said.Maryann chuckled, the customer pointed and screamed at the young lady to identify herself. The young lady felt ashamed and embarrassed by the situation.Jeffery struggled with his words, the young lady tried to move but the guards blocked her path, and she fell to her knees. Her eyes welled up in tears and her palms joined as she pleaded.“I am sorry, please, forgive me. I didn’t know he was married.” She said with her tears shimmering down her eyes.Ryan shook his head in disbelief, the customers had their mouths opened in shock. They began to curse the young lady.Maryann slammed her feet against the floor twice, with her lips gritted in anger. “Teach them a lesson, don’t leave any of them.” She instructed.The guards move
The manager sighed in disappointment with his gaze downward, “Sir, I…I can explain it was a misunderstanding in the reservation.” He replied.If he wasn’t greedy for an extra tip, this wouldn’t have happened, because Freddie paid first before Jeffrey came and doubled the money.“A misunderstanding, ” He angrily said. The manager nodded his head intermittently, He felt the weight of the situation within him. He knew he had a slight chance if the owner should find the truth. Unbeknownst to the manager the customers have been on live and the video has been trending on all social media platforms.He was about to utter a word when he was interjected by the owner with a slap across his face. “Sir….’Tah, The manager staggered backwards with his hands on his face, his eyes popped out with extreme shock.“A misunderstanding that cost us our reputation and humiliated one of the richest families in the city, you have just a job which is to manage the restaurant smoothly and now look at the
He managed to maintain his composure but his mind was pounding fast, Grey had to close the tab hastily to avoid Ryan from seeing what he was doing.Grey knew he had to come up with a good answer, he wouldn’t want to be interrogated by Ryan, He could see how angry he was.“Uhhh, I was going through some stuff online. My laptop was having difficulty, so I thought about using yours to finish my work,” he said, getting up from the seat and walking towards Ryan.Ryan stared at him in disbelief, he didn’t believe his statement.Ryan clenched his hand into a fist. He narrowed his eyes, suspicious pricking at the back of his mind. “You should have called the technician to get your laptop checked, my laptop is confidential. I don’t want you going through my laptop again or coming into my office without my permission.” Ryan said firmly.“But Ryan, we are brothers and grandfather said whatever belongs to you, belongs to me as well.” He said. Ryan felt irritated by his words, as he walked towar
Ryan yanked the thought off his mind, while he continued with his work. His eyes were glued to the laptop screen. The day had been long filled with meetings and planning sessions, Ryan felt a sense of accomplishment as he wrapped up the last reports for the day.He shut down his laptop and stared at his wristwatch, it was 5:30 pm. He sighed in relief. There was a subtle knock on the door, “Come in,” he said in his usual tone.Ryan hoisted his head to deduce who it was and his gaze fell on Nicolas who walked inside the office, Nicolas was worried that his master had spent enough time unlike him, so he came to check to see what was happening but he found his master getting ready to leave.“Oh! I was about to call you. Get the car ready.” He said.“Okay, young master.” He replied.Nicholas left the office, closing the door from behind. Just as he was about to stand up, his phone rang. Ryan glanced at the phone screen and found Elizabeth’s name boldly written on the screen.He didn’t
The atmosphere was filled with laughter, and excitement as they exchanged memories of the past. Suddenly Ryan’s phone rang out, he didn’t pick up the call at first, it was the second time. He glanced at the phone screen and his eyes fell on an unknown number.He furrowed his brow, “Who could this be?” He said in his mind. He excuses himself from his friends while pressing his right finger against the phone screen.He exhaled deeply and mouthed into the phone.“Hello, this is Ryan Baker. Who am I unto and how can I help you.” Ryan said calmly.“Finally, Finally you decided to pick up my calls. You were lucky, you did. I would have sent you a message with a picture of your mum’s corpse.” The unknown caller said and from the background, one could tell it was a male voice.“Huh? Who are you and what the hell are you talking about.” Ryan questioned with a serious tone, he wasn’t finding the caller’s statements to be a friendly one. He furrowed his face.The caller laughed sarcastically
Ryan and Freddie got to the entrance of his mansion, where Ryan met his driver, Jerry. “Get in, we are heading out,” he commanded.Jerry felt something was off, he knew his master wouldn’t have sounded like that. But he believes whatever it is his master will always conquer it no matter what.Ryan felt his phone vibrate, he shoved it out placing it on a loudspeaker.“Master, Ryan. It’s Sebastian. I have news that you should know.” Sebastian said.Ryan already knew what he wanted to say, but allowed him to make the statement.“What is it?” Ryan said with a plain tone.“Master, Your mother has been kidnapped. The two guards she went out with were shot and have been taken to the hospital, we have informed the police about it. And they have sent a rescue team to search for her.” Sebastian said.“Master, I believe it was Joseph who sent those men to kidnap your mother,” he added.Ryan inhales.“I know about it, the kidnappers have contacted me.”“What did they say, did they request for any
They moved slowly till they got to an open space, Ryan glanced around the room and he could see his mother being tied to a chair, her eyes could tell her story that she had pain and fear while her heart was enthralled with indescribable sorrow.It got to Ryan’s notice that she wasn’t the only one, he narrowed his gaze to the left and found Elizabeth Brian also tied at the other end.“What is she doing here and how come she was kidnapped alongside my mother.” He mumbles inwardly. Ryan was in a perplexed state but maintained his composure for the task ahead.His eyes flickered in rage while transferring the anger to his hand grip on the bag. He counted the men he saw starting from the entrance, they were a total of six men.“Where is your boss, tell him, I have what he requested and he should set them free,” Ryan said, his voice deep and showing no atom of fear.One of the gang members who seemed to be the leader, he had a scarred face, spoke with authorities.“Not so fast, we need to c
