The following morning at the Miller's mansion, Jessica finally came out of her room with puffy eyes and a banging headache and proceeded towards the kitchen. She met Lillian while she was preparing breakfast for the family. Lilian greeted Jessica but there was no response from her, she kept mute. She ambled towards the dining table and she sat quietly without uttering a single word, her stomach was rumbling. The aroma coming from the kitchen made the hunger increase profusely.Within a minute her mother Mrs. Maria came down and found her daughter sitting quietly, she was so lost in deep thoughts that she didn't notice her coming.Mrs. Maria knew her facial expression was a result of what happened the previous day. She had lost her job and the man she loved.Mr. Maria moved towards Jessica and tapped her shoulder twice before being brought out of her reveries. Jessica sighed deeply, she shifted her gaze toward the kitchen door, Mrs. Maria grasped that her daughter was hungry, so she
The manager of Trustworthy Finance Mr. Gareth Sebastian has sent a message to all department heads about the coming of the heir of the Lewis family.Mrs. Maria, who just arrived at the company, received the message while she was standing at the entrance of the building. She hissed in frustration, the argument between her and her daughter was still boiling in her heart.She walked briskly towards the elevator and pressed the number where her office was situated. The elevator took her to the second floor. She skitters towards her office. Her secretary Juliet, greeted her and informed her of the meeting with the new boss, but she didn't respond to her. She slammed the office door in annoyance, the other staff who were passing were shocked at how the door was banged hard. She sat on the leather chair in her office, she twirled the chair, and her face was engrossed with disappointment.“What does she think of me? Does she have any right to tell me what to do? She is supposed to respect m
Mrs. Maria's legs were shaking, she was finding it hard to stand up. She felt her waist was glued to the seat. Tears well in her eyes. Her heart sank into her stomach.“Mrs. Maria Miller, kindly step outside.” He asked again. The staff members stared at her, the atmosphere was filled with fear and worries. Her heart ached and tears welled up at the corner of her eyes. She sauntered forward with her head face down. His lips curved up in a small smile as he stared down at her with a serious face. He collected a file from Robert Smith and skimmed at it.“Mrs. Maria, You have been in this company for four years. True or false.” He questioned “Yes,” she said in a cracking voice.“Also you have been embezzling money using an orphanage account.”Everyone was looking at her with a sneering and sarcastic look.“True or false” he questioned again.“True.”The staff were all shocked at her confession, her expression was filled with shame and disappointment.“Mrs. Maria Miller, can you tell
Jason was seated in his office at Trustworthy Finance, he was skimming through the previous company's report. His desks were filled with files that he intended to work on.The reports were not that good and they were not making enough profit, he was not excited by it. While he was going through more files he found a report on the Pinecrest plantation, where Mr. Eric borrowed a huge amount of money. Jason quickly picked up the intercom and called his secretary Rose. Within a minute the 5.4” lady was standing before her boss, tilting her head a bit in respect.“Good day sir, you sent for me.”“Yes, I want you to get me all the reports on Pinecrest plantation deal with us, I also want you to call Mr. Rafael Shane immediately. Tell him I want to see him,” He said authoritatively.“Okay, sir.” She replied, turning back to open the door and exit her boss's office.After some moments Jason heard a soft knock on his door and he ordered the person to come in, Mr. Rafael Shane walked in with a
She sat at her favorite spot, “It is time to make more money.” she screamed out.” The card is shared amongst the players and the game begins, Mrs. Maria has lost the first hand, but she continues without hesitation.Within an hour her calm demeanor had changed and her face transformed into a masked fury. She stared at the card before her in disdain, she had been on a losing streak since she sat down.Hot sweat drenched her face profusely down to her ear, and with each loss her frustration mounted, fueled by the relentless onslaught of bad luck.Her phone was buzzing and she stared at her screen. It was from her daughter, and she hissed in frustration before turning it off to avoid distraction.A slight tapping on her shoulder made her turn her back in annoyance, she was about to scream at the person when she saw his serious face she calmed down. She abruptly paused facing him, she faked a smile on her face.“Hello Mr. Derrick Philip,” she said softly.Mr. Derrick Philip is the owner
Jason picked up the call and he recognized the voice immediately, it was none other than his secret spy Roger Young.“Young master, I have news about Mrs. Maria.”“Speak, I can hear you,” Jason said.“Mrs. Maria had an accident an hour ago”“What!!!! He screamed.“Yes, young master. She has been rushed to the Grace Centre Hospital. The accident occurred a few minutes after she came out of the casino.“I found a Harbor Trust Bank card, which belongs to Mrs. Maria, I will send it to you first thing tomorrow morning,” Rogers said.“Okay, keep me informed if you find anything else,” Jason said and he hung up the call.Jason stood still for a moment, he paced back and forth the room slowly.“So she still visits the casino,” he said.He stood confused, “ Those Mrs. Maria have another account that I'm not aware of? What is she doing with a Harbor Trust Bank card?” He muttered inwardly.Her accident will not stop him from going to the plantation.He took his phone, called his secretary, and
Mrs. Janet Robinson laughed out loud, causing the plantation workers to stare at them. “What are you doing here? Have the miller's family accepted you back? It's been a long time since I saw you.” She said with a scornful gaze on her face.Jason's fist was clenched in annoyance, but he did his best to calm his inner rage. He understands her more than anyone, she is among the people that hated him while he was working at the plantation.“Mrs. Janet, I heard you got promoted after so many years. congratulations,” he said with a little smirk on his face.“Yes, I deserve a promotion. I have worked hard enough to be promoted. Not like you who choose marriage over work.”Jason never chose marriage over business, he was ready to continue working at the plantation after the death of Mr. Eric and his marriage to Jessica but Mrs. Maria Miller was against it; Jason knows the business more than anyone at the plantation and it would not be good for her son, she saw him as a threat to her son Dan
When Mrs. Janet saw Danny she gained confidence and her mouth became sharp.“Sir, That foolish Jason came here with a man, they have been causing trouble.”“Where is Jason,” Danny BarkedJason ambles forward when he hears his name, a small smile curved on his lips.He stared at Jason from head to toe, he noticed Jason was well dressed and no longer with his dirty and stinky clothes.“What are you doing here and what did I hear you say,” Danny said.Jason collected a file from Robert and handed it over to Danny, his eyes were fixed on Jason. He collects the file and stares at it.“What is this?” Danny asked, he stared at Mrs. Janet who was standing behind him before shifting his gaze back to Jason.“I guess your father didn't tell you about it,you know how to read, so better read through the document.”“You think you can come here with fake documents to threaten me,” Danny said.“Your father Mr. Eric Miller took out a loan seven years ago, when the company was going bankrupt. You are
