The next morning arrived, Amelia arranged her documents in her bag and locked the door of the room behind her. It was almost 7:30 pm, and she was getting late for work. There’s this investor who wanted a one-on-one talk with her. He even catched a flight so he could meet her in her office. Thinking of all this, she deliberately didn’t wait for Jace to get done in the bathroom before she told him she was taking her leave.She had no idea that on reaching downstairs, she was going to be retained by her mother who was enjoying her breakfast.“Hey, daughter. Where are you going to?” With a slice of bread in her mouth, Elizabeth struggled to let out the words out of her mouth.This made Amelia turn her back and face her mom. “As you can see, I’m heading to my office.” She said, her speech void of emotion.“Common, Amelia. You don’t have to be this harsh with me just because I told you the truth. Anyway, have a seat and let’s share something to eat before you go out.” Elizabeth banged an e

“Amelia Bradley, I have never being this sure of what I wanted for milt self. Before you today, I kneel to express the love I have been feeling for you.” Taking a break, he cleared his throat and finally dished out what he had been keeping in his mind for long. “Amelia Bradley, would you please marry me?” With a box containing a ring, Robert presented it before her.This action of his made her widened her eyes the more. She was actually not expecting this, especially at their work place. Has he thought of what people were going to think of her?“Please say something, Amelia. Please tell me it’s a yes.” Clammy sweat we’re sipping down his pores as he struggled to make her speak. Well, it seams like everything he had been uttering out didn’t seem to touch her. The Amelia he had standing beside him was a furious one compared to someone who was supposed to be smiling.Before the crowd could notice, Amelia’s investor had began clapping his hands. Smiles were extending from his mouth.“Wow

She turned again and stood in front of him. She began thinking of what he just said. The issue is, he wasn’t the first person to ask such a question. Many of her suitors who wanted her hand in marriage always asked what Jace had that the rest didn’t have.“Humm…” Her investor cleared his throat behind her, which caused her to halt in her words and face him.“Since you are faced with an important issue, I prefer that we schedule this meeting for another day. That’s if you don’t mind.” He carefully asked.This was good at the same time bad for Amelia. She didn’t expect that Robert was going to spoil her meeting. She didn’t envisage this at all. And the worst of all this was that her granny stood in the middle of the hall and was watching all that was going on. After telling her that she didn’t want any surprise of this kind, she still went ahead and organized all this.“You are right, Sir. I am not in the right mind for us to talk business. Maybe some other time. I am deeply sorry for t

“What do you mean by that?” A voice said, just after opening Amelia’s door. She raised her head just to find out that Robert was the one who pointed his head at her office.Tired of the situation at hand, she widened her eyes before taking a seat. Next, she face-palmed. “What the hell is going on here? How dare you walk into my office without knocking on the door?” Amelia snapped immediately.“Instead of asking me this question they don’t you tell what you are doing with this lunatic? How dare you plot behind my back with him?” Robert asked, approaching them. This was quite difficult for Amelia who was trying to figure out what game they were trying to play.“Can you two please walk out of here and fight? I don’t want any scandal in my office.” Amelia barked, waiting for the two grownups to move out. It seems they didn’t give a damn about her, looking from the way they were fixing themselves.“I said you two should walk out.” She yelled, pointing her hand to the door.“Of all women

I wonder who gave them the audacity to address me in that tone. I don’t blame them, I blame the stupid president who is currently occupying my dad’s position. If my dad were to be the president then they won’t even try to talk to me in that tone.” Daryl cried out.

Walking downstairs, he had no idea he was going to meet his father seated on the couch, what he expected the least to find was Tessie, seated beside his father.“Damn, what’s going on here?” His subconscious barked. Well, he just got down and greeted his father first, as it was supposed to be. Then he gathered his courage and walked up to her. He lowered his head and was about to give her a peck but she took some distance, rejecting him to touch her. This character of his left him with one question.

“Why won’t you tell me the surprise you had for me?” Amelia playfully asked at the same time caressing the tip of her hair.“Okay, I’m going to tell you but on one condition. On the condition that you smile.” Daryl said, making Amelia’s lips edged up in a brilliant smile.“That’s it, just how I like it. You know you are very beautiful anytime you smile.” Daryl struggled to say which got Amelia impatient. She was tired of having to smile without knowing what he was going to say.He got into his car and brought out two tickets that were hidden behind his back, “Can you now please close your eyes?” He said, a million smile extending on his lips.“Not again Daryl. You already asked me to smile, now you are asking me to close my eyes. What’s so important that you have for me?” “I said you should close your eyes.

“I think we should take things slower. Let’s not rush things so we can learn to know each other better. Let’s define our priorities and goals.” Amelia mentioned while they were having dinner.“That’s true, you are very correct. I don’t want us to rush things. Let’s take the process gradually.” Jace confirmed.They spent another hour and it was time to leave.

Going through every damn content, she was able to go through the terms and conditions of the contact. Indeed, Jace didn’t lie when he said Carlos' automobile no longer belonged to him.“My god, how come I didn’t see all this? I have been living in this house for as long as possible and it was just below my nose. How stupid I could be.” Elsy yelled at herself. She continued going through some documents of his. She found a pull of money. Not minding how much it was, she removed five lots of it and put that in her purse. She now kept the other pull back in its rightful position. When she heard the door creaking, she knew it was Carlos. She

“Start the car, we are visiting my father. I hope his maids are aware of my visit?” Jace asked Angelo as he struggled to arrange the files that laid scattered on his table.“Yes, young master. I told them already. The cook asked to know what you’ll love to eat. In no particular order, I stated all meals you love.” Angelo stated.With a smile, Jace heaved heavily. “Thank you, Angelo. Just give me some minutes, when I get done we will go home.” Jace proposed.“Oh, young master let me help you out.” Angelo proposed but Jace refused.

I’m gonna pay for all of them.” He ordered after he had taken his fifth bottle of beer. It was visible that he was tipsy and his statement was as a result of his drunkenness. The bartender knew him so he did just as he said. He served each and everyone present a bottle of beer.“Thank you biggest boss,” Those were the words the young dudes uttered after getting a bottle of beer free of charge.“You kids are all welcome,” He raised his hands and accepted their recognition.

“Look at me this teenager, who do you take yourself for? Is it because you had the opportunity to get married to a beautiful and wealthy lady who took you in and sponsored your uselessness?” Robert said. At the end of his statement, he stressed out the last word.“It’s not only about getting married to her. But if calling me useless is because you are interested in her then you can have her to yourself, I don’t care about that. But don’t call me useless ever in your life.” Jace warned.“Get lost, you are useless and that won’t change what I feel regarding you.” Robert challenged him.“Since you are too relaxed and proud of yourself, I’m gonna show you what I have reserved for you.” He said and reached for his pocket. He brought out his phone and dialled Corey’s number. Within seconds of ringing, he picked up his call.“Young master, it’s my pleasure to be on the phone with you. Is there anything I can do for the young master?” Corry asked, his voice growing softer.“Yes, there’s some

All these years I have served Storm with passion. I have always been loyal and punctual. I am always at work and always delivers at time.

It’s his fault and not mine.” Alma tried to explain herself.Jace’s face became dark when she referred to Angelo as useless. He would never allow anyone to talk down on Angelo no matter if he was only his driver.“Hey, watch your mouth. This is not the place where you can use any kind of slang.” He said, his brows furrowing, “Do you think just being at work on time is all that is required to run a successful co

“This is a true definition of our lives can change at all times. Can you imagine I just got to found out I was working for my husband without knowing? I had signed contracts with his companies without even knowing they belonged to him.” Amelia said desperately.“I will advice you to start using the term ex-husband as from today, because I’m sure he is gonna cimd back for you. He won’t spare you when he begins the divorce procedure.” Elsy reminded her.“I am still his legal wife, Elsy. You aren’t tell me what to do or how to adress him.

“I was preparing my revenge.” The word stick them again. There was an absolute silent, as if someone had taken their voices and ran away with it.Amelia finally gathered her courage and spoke up, “So we’ve been staying under the sand roof and you thought it wise to hide things away from me? As couples, that isn’t supposed to take place. It simply shows you hsve been fake from the onset.” Amelia declared.“Oh, spare me that shit. I did everything I could to be a good man to you. Yet you didn’t see that. You kept treating me like a little toy.” Jace bombarded.“What about my grandmother? What did her company got to do with you?
