"No need to cry baby, she is not good for you." Erica tries consoling Mako. The truth is that Mako loved Raine as his mom and she also saw him as his son, but no one can estimate if in the future, she would have hurt him. She has an unpredictable life, if she can hurt the person who employed her, then she can hurt absolutely anyone. She might do this to pain Eric as this is the only son he has. Raine starts to pack her things, with a worried mind. She didn't even inform Barrino that she was coming and doesn't knows how he will take her, if he will see her as a lady who wanders from one man's house to the other. "I need to call him now, I just have limited time on me." She then has a second thought. "What if I call, tell him this and he asks me not to come? Perhaps he's not at home or with someone. What will I do in this case? She then decides not to call but go there herself, if there is anything going on, she will surely see it with her own eyes, not something to be told. He might
"Whatever, I don't care where she is going to. I think I've got to leave the romantic line and focus on my business, my career as the CEO." Eric tells his dad on the telephone. Three days after sending Raine away, he hasn't spoken of bringing another nanny to take care of Mako who is now solely under the care of his biological aunt, now turned into his grandmother. Carlos is worried knowing fully well that Eric is supposed to get someone else, as soon as possible. Erica wasn't going to take care of Mako for long because she would have her own life to live, soon she was gonna pack out to her own estate where she bought for her and making the finishing touches, her business is right at the corner to start booming. Erica so much loves to take care of kids most especially Mako just as she took care of Eric when he was young but nevertheless, she wouldn't let this tie her down. It's that point in her life she wants to step up to the plate and be counted. She wants to own her own business,
He remembers his childhood, after Erica who is approaching took care of him, there was no other person that had care for him, he was homeless and then Scarlett picked him up just to take advantage of, in terms of fulfilling her sexual desires. When she got impregnated by him accidentally, she had no choice but to marry him to avoid the scandal which was going to loom on her. This began the series of humiliation any man has ever encountered. If he could go through all these and still be who he is today, then why not his son. It was better he got raised without a mother than bringing in someone that would come and destabilize his life. A common backup to this is what Raine tried to do, calling the cops to arrest him. Of course she did. He is now imagining how it would have been for his son if he was charged to court and sentenced to prison, who would have taken care of his son, and his business empire. Carlos, his granddad, was getting older and needed to rest from the hectic life of a
Eric gets to forgive his mom for what she asked him, which he interpreted to mean her kind of terming him as gay because of his aim to stay as an ace. They rise and hug each other, it's the best moment for her and also for him. If he had gotten into an issue with his dad, he didn't want the same to happen between him and his mom. "Don't you think you should apologize to your dad?" Erica suggests. "You know, that wasn't the best approach, you would have just ignored whatever he said and hold onto what you really think it's good. What you want for yourself." "I'm sorry mom." He says with remorse. "You should tell him that too." She didn't waste any time to initiate this as she placed a phone call on Carlos knowing that if Eric did that through his phone, he wouldn't pick. "Even as I'm calling him, I don't know if he will pick once he knows my purpose of calling."Her doubt almost supersedes her desire to try but she ends up trying. The call goes through but along the way, it's d
Unknown to him, his handsome face and figure, charming eyes and pink lips, with the stylish hairstyle he carries is what is mainly attracting many girls to him. Some even get to recognize him. "Look, the CEO of Hollywood." "He owns Carlos' group of companies now!" He hears some of the girls say, the next thing cameras started flashing. People began directing their phone cameras towards him. He didn't expect this. He went blank on how a mind-your-business road and trip turned this way, that people couldn't just let him pass in peace. "Have you forgotten that you are a celebrity CEO?" A voice asks inside him. It dawns on him who he is, he has forgotten who he was despite knowing who he was. At first, he thought it was his beauty but that's only part of it, his identity and fame had spread everywhere after his debut. "Arrghhh!" He grunts right in his mind. "I'll need to say goodbye to everything about private life, it's just not my portion any longer." He wouldn't continue to
"Calm down, my son." He begins to beg his son knowing that if he let Eric take this decision, he would lose a lot, his company would be taken from his family forever when he had a representative son, a grandson whom he took as a son and a great grandchild who will take over after Eric. The decisions he wanted to take are always done by those who have no kids or relatives but he had. "It's quite unnecessary," he said to himself. "Now that you want to leave, where do you intend to stay, how do you think your life would be?" He sighs. "Learn to be tolerant, don't be too aggressive. You don't even know if I was joking to test your reaction and you just burst out." He sighs again, shaking his head. Eric is dumbfounded. He reasons that he might have been kidding him. Which father would just lay down his son from his inheritance like that after registering his name with the government and having the documents of ownership stamped? Those who give all they have to charity do it when des
This makes Eric chuckle. "Alright, I will. I promise not to be quick tempered like that again." "Good one, boy!" He says and hangs the call. Even when he was an adult, he found nothing wrong in terming him as a boy after all he was his grandchild. Eric smiles in ecstasy as he rises from the roadside bench he sat on. He then proceeds to pick the call of his PA. Colton had called to enquire why he hadn't yet arrived, thinking that something was wrong because Eric was never late to work. "What's wrong sir, is anything wrong?" "No Colton, I was speaking to my dad over the phone to sort out some issues. And besides, I'm walking. I didn't want to use my car today." "Wooh!" Colton is amused. "I hope the issue has been resolved?" "Yeah, sure. Thanks for caring." "You're welcome sir." "Don't worry, I'll be there in ten minutes. Is that okay with you?" "Yes, I'll get to inform the engineers, surveyors and architects here. We are sure waiting for you." "Alright!" He hangs the
He arrives at his company, to see Colton and the group of engineers with the surveyors and architects that would be going on a tour with them. They greet him, delighted that he has finally arrived. Colton comes forward and gives him a handshake. "Good morning sir. I'm glad to have you here. We are set to take-off on our journey, the journey would be taking an hour, twenty minutes and we would arrive there safe and sound." "Woww! That's great. Can we go now." They pack all the equipment they will need for the survey to the large coaster bus they would be using, while Eric waits for them. Immediately they are done, Colton signals him and he rises up, follows him out of the apartment, to the luxurious bus with different compartment. Right inside the bus, Colton who has been friends with Eric starts up a conversation with him which he didn't want to while I'm the presence of their team. "Sir, your dress code looks so nice, why did you choose to put on this to work instead of your norm
