Not for long, Someone caught Jaxon and he was tackled to the ground.“You are under arrest Mr. Jaxon for…” a policeman started.“Wait!” James interrupted.“What do we do for you?”“Paula here would like to say something before you proceed.” James said.“Okay then, she can go ahead.” the policeman said and Paula stepped forward with Lana and Ellen.“You, what more do you want?” Jaxon asked. He looked broken.“True, your face is the last I want to see and I don’t really care what happens to you and so I do not have a lot to say to you right now. You hurt me and up until now you destroyed my life or so I thought. But I found good people and everything and it’s going to be good for me. I just want to let you know that you don’t really hurt me anymore and I forgive you. I have decided to drop the charges. You are free Jaxon.” Paula said and there were tears in her eyes. That must have been a hard decision for her to make.“Wha…What?” Jaxon stammered.“Yes, you are free.” she turned around
“James, El, Paula!” Lana called from outside the door. They were all in Lana’s office, waiting for Lana and then they would all go and have lunch together.“What is it, Lana? You are bursting.” Ellen commented.“Well I should, I’ve got good news.” she said.“Spill then.” James said and Paula just chuckled.“I spoke with that and Mr. Price was there with him. Firstly, he would be leaving tomorrow and so we need to either get you in seat or bring Mr. Wood back and secondly he would not invest in the movie…” she was saying and Ellen cut in.“That is your good news?” Paula looked scared and Ellen looked so confused Lana began to laugh.“No no, I’m not done.” she said between laughter. “Well out with it!” Ellen commanded.“Mr. Price would not invest in the movie ONLY but he is also sponsoring Paula as an actress in Hand of God! She is to fly tomorrow evening after him!” She screamed the last part.Ellen hugged Paula, Lana came in to join and three of them squealed excitedly like a group o
On the way back from the airport, James got a call. It was from Eric Wood.“Hey Eric, I had intended to call you first. How is it going?”“Everything is okay, we...” he stopped and then continued, “Are you driving James? I can always call back later.” Eric said.“No, no it’s fine. You can talk to Lana, she is here with me.” James said and handed the phone over to Lana.“Hey Eric, how are you doing?”“I am fine Lana, thank you. I called to let you know that my daughter is to leave the hospital today and I want to sincerely thank you all for helping us through this trying moment. My daughter is out of danger now and there would be no more relapses for her. Thank you.” He kept saying thank you that Lana had to stop him.“Ohh Eric if you keep saying thank you like that, we wouldn’t know how to feel. We only did what we felt was right and you would have done it too if the roles were reversed and so thank you too for trusting us enough to let us help and for stepping up into the business li
The next morning, James decided to resume back work as a janitor in the company. Augustine has been working his shift, while he has been off for days running around trying to help Ellen when she was in the hospital and then Paula.That morning, when he got to the company, he proceeded to change into the janitor's uniform and began to do his work.He noticed that most of the staff were looking at him in an odd way but he didn't care.They've always treated him poorly or people that associate with him all because they want to appear loyal in Mr. Sterlings presence.“Hello, James,” someone greeted James. He turned around and saw Augustine walking towards him. “Hoy my bro, good morning.” James responded and brought forth his hands for a handshake which Augustine gladly accepted and shook him warmly.“Thank you for bringing me back… I don't know how you did it, but the CEO told me it was all because of you.”“Oh that? I begged him. you know I couldn't let you an innocent man be maltreate
Alisha was still thinking about the whole stuff that happened at the office today.The embarrassment, the disgrace and most of all, her assistant, Anna Davies' opposition.‘How dare Anna Davis disrespect me?,’ she thought. In the past, she used to be loyal but since they made Anna Davis her assistant, things are changing and she can't stand it.She would have to have her removed from her position as assistant manager.When she got home, she saw her dad and Mom in the sitting room having a conversation.“Alisha, come and look at this. Your father is a genius.” Kate called out to Alisha as soon as she came in through the door.“What are you on about now mom?” Alisha asked, taking off her Jacket and sitting by her father and mother.“There is this stock market, Enron Stock exchange, that your dad invested in and in the days since we have been watching, it seems to be doing really well and we are considering investing more into it.” Kate explained to Alisha.“But I haven’t heard anything
The atmosphere in the room was calm and pleasant as James switched on the TV. He has returned from work and decided to rest a bit.He picked up the telephone in his suite and dialed the room service, and ordered a simple dinner.A few seconds later, there was a knock on his hotel room."Who's it?" He said as he made his way to the door."It's Ellen!""Ellen?!" James said, with surprise written over his voice.“Yeah.”“I didn't know you were coming.” James said as he opened the door. “You shouldn't have. Don't you know you're taking a very big risk?” “Oh! Come on, James. I'm alright. I can always take care of myself.” Ellen said and smiled.“You know I can't stand it when you're hurt. You should have told me you were coming and I would come pick you up.”“I tried your phone several times today but you didn't pick up so I decided to drop by and check on you.”"Oh that! I'm sorry I was really busy today at work. I was gonna call later, though."“Oh yeah”“Come here, I have missed you.”
Bill Price had gotten a message from someone and he could not figure out who it was. Something told him that he should have shared it right at that moment with his friend Ryan Wane, at least then he would have had only half the problem now because a problem shared, as everyone knows, is a problem half-solved.He had just hoped that the person would stop and that will be just all there is to it, but the messages had not stopped, instead they intensified and worried him badly because there was someone watching his every move, aware of every single thing he does and he couldn’t even smell the person, talk less of seeing them.He thought about it time and again and he could only think of telling it to Ryan Wane. He just might know what to do and save Price from all this stress and threats.He picked up his phone and dialed Mr. Wane’s number and called but got no answer and so he figured Mr. Wane was busy, probably in one of those meetings or some other thing and so he decided to just leav
In about a minute or two, Treat got to Mr. Price’s office and saw him pacing around and muttering to himself. He swung around when Treat knocked and let himself in.“Treat. You are back. Paula safe yeah?” he asked, trying to compose himself.“Yes, I made sure.” Treat answered looking at Mr. Price sideways and starting to worry.“Okay then, you can take an early one today, go home, get some rest. We all need it after all.”“But Mr. Price?” Treat called.“Yes, is there anything the matter?” Mr. Price asked.“Not really but I’m starting to think there really is.” Treat said.“Go on Treat, stop speaking in riddles.” Mr. Price said.“Well when I returned from seeing Paula off, I asked the others where you were and they told me that you had returned to the office but they also told me something disturbing. They said that you had gotten a text of some sort and that your mood changed after and you looked so pale they couldn’t help but notice but you had told them that you were okay.” Treat ex
