The following morning the entire staff of Prime Realty Group were all called upon for an emergency meeting.The meeting was scheduled to be held by 9 am at the conference hall and all staff, including those on vacation, were called to be present.Before the meeting, Ryan was at his office in his black slim-fit suit. He ambled back and forth as he thought about the scene that would unfold before his employee that day.A soft knock landed on his door, Ryan rushed to his chair and called for the person to come in, the door swung open and Vivian walked in with a fallen demeanor.She tilted her head slightly and greeted her boss, responding calmly and offered her a seat. Ryan never requested for her presence at his office and he wondered why she came.Is she feeling guilty? Did she regret helping Ryan? Is she feeling pity for Mrs. Ashley?“Vivian, You are supposed to be at the meeting hall. Why are you here,” he asked softly.“Sir, I am sorry,” she said with a low tone, with her face still
In the conference room, Mr. Caleb Baker was seated at the head of the table, his presence commanding authority and attention. Ryan was seated at the right side of his grandfather, whilst Mrs. Ashley and Mr. George were both seated at the left side of Mr. Caleb and their son being the head of the warehouse was seated behind his parents. Other shareholders and other top company representatives were all seated at the high table.There was distinct and indistinct chatting from different corners of the room. Ryan stood up, adjusted his suit and ambled towards the microphone stand. He kept a determined face, the atmosphere was tense.Ryan cleared his throat, adjusting the microphone a bit, the staff gazed at their boss as they all attuned their ears to grasp what their boss had to say, the room was engrossed with abrupt silence.He let out a heavy sigh. “Good morning, Everyone, thank you all for joining the meeting at such short notice. I have some important matters to discuss, so please le
“George Baker Vice President, Ashley Baker head of the Accounting Department, Miguel Sanchez Head Of Media Department, Ronald Benson Assistant Accountant, Jane Marley Head Of Customer Service And Support Department. Richard Geoffrey Head Of The Human Resource Department and he mentioned 6 names of employees involved.”“You all should stand on your feet.” Mr. Caleb instructed.The crowd echoed in shock and disbelief, they were murmuring and some secretly took their phone and recorded without anyone noticing it.Whilst Ryan was whispering to his grandfather, Mrs. Ashley interrupted them, her expression defiant, as her name was mentioned to be amongst the embezzlement scheme she stood in an attempt to defend her name.“Grandfather, I and my husband categorically deny any involvement in the embezzlement scheme,” she said with her eyes blazing with indignation.Mr. Caleb’s expression mixed with anger and disappointment, he gazed at his son George and his wife Ashley. “Aunt Ashley, the ev
The police arrived, their presence casting a sombre shadow over the ambience of the hall. Mr. Caleb greeted the chief of police Luke Franklin, with a heavy heart leading him to where George and his accomplices were. Their faces mask with shock and disbelief.Seeing Kent Morris and Nolan Perry made Mrs. Ashley and Mr. George shocked.The tension increased, and Mr. George and Mrs. Ashley were surrounded by the police officers and their accomplices.Ryan took two steps forward, he asked the Media department to replay the video, Nolan and Kent watched the video on the large projector screen. They felt disappointed and betrayed.If they were to succeed in not being arrested they would sue the hotel manager for lack of professionalism.Despite the mounting evidence against them, Mr. George maintained his composure, his face was not seen in the video. He tried to deny his involvement in the embezzlement scheme.“I am not among them, so why do you still want to arrest me? I don't know any o
Outside the building complex, reporters were spotted from different angles, as they waited to cover the scene. As they were escorted outside by the police officer, the scene outside seemed chaotic, reporters and Journalists swarmed around. Their camera lights flashed and the microphone jabbed forward from different angles.The police shield the faces of their captives from the blinding lights, Brown stopped at the lobby after sighting the scene outside, his expression mixed with shock and hatred.The reporters pushed through as they were eager to gather information.“Mr. George, can you comment on the allegations against you and your wife.”“Are they true or false allegations?” the female reporter asked.Another reporter could wait for their response before voicing another question from behind. “What is your response regarding the accusations of the embezzlement scheme?”“Why do you have to steal from your father’s company even as the vice president.”The scene was unbearable as the
Mr. Caleb stepped into the office, with his butler behind him. His face beams in astonishment. He engulfed his grandson in a deep hug before he finally released him.Placing two hands on Ryan's shoulder, He winked at the Butlers to give them some privacy. “Ryan, I am proud of you. I am happy with the way you handled everything today. You showed courage and intelligence, you showed courage in the face of hard knocks and you have my support.”He paused as he moved forward, towards Ryan's chair. He stared at the chair, his eyes dripping a little in tears, he used his handkerchief to wipe the tears off his face. “ I miss your father Frederick, but you have proved to me and the shareholders that you are a true leader. I believe with your guidance, I have no doubts our company will overcome every challenge and we will emerge stronger.” He said, his heart mixed with different feelings. “Take care of yourself son, Keep up the good work and remember to always visit me and your mom.” He saunt
His eyes blazing in fury at the sight before him without uttering a word, he lunged at Brown in aggression. Tackling him to the ground and wrestling him away from his sister Victoria.“Get away from her, get away from her you monster.” He roared like an angry lion, his voice was thick and filled with anger as he pinned Brown to the ground, his muscles bulging with effort.Grey watches in shock at the two men grappling with each other, their bodies wriggling in a tangled heap on the floor, grey tried to separate them both but he couldn’t. He strides outside the house to call for the guards to come to help him, and the guards rush in to help their master. When they rushed in, Brown had been pinned down by Reuben, and he was breathing heavily. “Stop them, Separate them,” Grey commanded.The guards managed to separate the two men, they were held apart and their breath became heavy after wrestling for a little time.“You think you have the strength, I will show you who I am,” Brown utter
“How is she Doctor,” Reuben asked. He rushed to the doctor immediately, he sighted him coming out of the room. His parents followed him.“Calm down, please. Are you her husband.” The doctor asked politely.“No, Doctor, I am her brother,” he retorted.The Doctor inhales softly, as he stares at the worried faces before him.“Doctor say something, how is my daughter?” Mr. Simpson asked.“I am sorry, but we need to talk.” The doctor said calmly.“Is she going to be okay?” Mrs. Vanessa asked anxiously.“Your daughter, Victoria has suffered severe injuries, including internal bleeding and a concussion. We are doing everything we can for her but her condition is critical.” He said solemnly.Reuben used his palm to tap on his head repeatedly, he was boiling in inner rage. “ Please doctor, you have to save my sister, she is my only sister.” He said.“Doctor, please do something. That girl is my only daughter and I can’t lose her.” Mr. Simpson pleaded with his hands clasped together.The doctor
