“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
Twenty four hours passed and Daryl was still not home. He had spent the night at a nearby bar where he kept drinking and commanding for others.“Serve me and then serve the rest here in my bills. 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. He was someone who was in love with those kinds of words.In forty minutes he was done with his drink. He called the bartender to sage him another drink. Quickly, the dude burst out with another bottle in his hand.Once the beer was opened, he sipped for a while before depositing it on his table. He glared and noticed that
“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. He said he could do it on his own.Done at Storm, Angelo accompanied him home. He took his bath, wore one of the expensive suits he got and associated it with an expensive brogue. Looking at himself, he was ready to reintroduce himself to the world.“I’m ready, we can now take our leave.” He said. Angelo opened the door for him and sauntered out, heading to his father's mansion.In the surroundings, he could come into view with his father’s gate. It was bold
Elsy summoned her courtage and managed to go back to her house. She went there for just two reasons. Firstly, to get her luggage out of his house and secondly, to confront him. If he thinks he was going to go free of charge then he should step off his high horse. She went through his documents and fell on allthe contracts he signed with Marchburry. 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
“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. Jace opted to drop her at her house but she insisted that she wants to get a cab.“You have to chill, I’m not gonna allow you to go home on your own.” Jace insisted as he opened the car door for her. Left with no choice, she entered.She didn’t want in any way to be a burden to him, that's why she kept on refusing most of his services. This one she wasn’t going to escape.“Have a sound sleep.” Jace said. He dropped her in front of her gate and waved his hands at her.“Thanks, do have a nice sleep too.” Once he dropped her, he was off to his father’s house. It was literally two weeks since he had last set his foot in their house.
The morning lights reflected across the glass windows, jerking Jace Winston fromhis slumber. It was 7 am, and he was still slouched on the L sofa chair. His overdosing was associated with him coming back home late last night.He left the house yesterday as early as possible to go search for a job. Unfortunately, he found none. No company seems to be hiring. He desperatelycame back and dozed.His gaze shifted to the royal king bed where his wife usually lay. There was no one in bed, just a note laid on it, "Make sure you arrange my bed." It was written by Amelia Bradley; his wife.He quickly arranged the bed, took a bath, wore something, and ran downstairs. Maybe she was still down, he had intentions of asking her a favour. He wanted her to give him a lift since he had no money with him. In marriage, it was normal for a wife to give her husband a lift, but for him, it was considered a favour. That's because Amelia never wanted him close to her Chevrolet Camaro."Here comes my son-in
"Didn't I warn you to never repeat the word 'sorry' in front of me?" Mrs. Elizabeth barked in anger."Get out of my sight, return to the kitchen, and prepare lunch," She yelled at him.He quickly returned to the kitchen. Contemplating on what he could possibly cook which wasn't going to end his mother-in-law scolding him again. He asked the main maid, but she told him to prepare what he feels would be liked by the woman. Even the maids of the house were beginning to look down on him.Grilled Chicken, beans, fried rice, and mashed potatoes were served on the dining table; fully prepared by Jace.He went upstairs and informed Elizabeth Bradley. Two minutes later, she was down, ready to devour what her son-in-law prepared for lunch."Taste the food!" Mrs. Elizabeth instructed."Did you say something, mother?" Jace asked, to be sure that's what his mother-in-law really wanted from him."Are you deaf? Didn't you get me? Or did I speak with water in my mouth? I said you should taste my food
Did the caller take him for an idiot? He knew he was an orphan. How the hell would someone call and tell him it was about his father?"Young master, are you still there?" The person asked after noticing the sudden quietness."Yes, I am." Jace said coldly."Please let's meet and talk. I have a lot to tell you."After the person's explanation, just one thing came to Jace's head. The caller was surely a defrauder who tried to rip him off of his money. The funny thing was he didn't even have a penny with him. Even if he wanted to, he couldn't take anything from him.He decided to give a shot at the man's request. He told him where he was."Okay, young master. Let's meet at St Graven Hotel." The caller said."Did you just say S-St Graven Hotel?" Jace shivered just from hearing the location.St Graven Hotel was one of the most luxurious and expensive hotels in the city of Madrid. Apart from its beauty, it belonged to Mrs. Vanessa Morgan, his mother-in-law's friend. He wondered why in all th

“Fired, Sir?” Her eyes widened at this statement. What did she do for her to warrant such evil treatment from him?“Yeah, you heard me correctly. You are here by fired. I don’t want to meet you anytime I come around, like I won’t take it lightly with you.” He made it crystal clear.She raised her hands and dropped them on her head, “Sir, is there anything bad I did? 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. If not for that useless Angelo, I wouldn’t have been sent home for two weeks. 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. He is still my husband.” Amelia yelled.“Oh, darling. Please can you come down your high horse? The same husband you had accepted someone else’s proposal? The same husband you asked him to pack out? Is that the same one you are talking about?” Elsy bombarded.It just dawned on her that she had not treated Jace in the last couple of months. She and her mother were the same. She had everything her mother instructed her to do.“I will be in my room now, I
“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? What wrong did shd ever do to you?” Amelia continued with her question.“That question is very simple to answer.” Jace started talking, “She was constantly talking down on me. She always insulted and said all kind of trash concerning my unknown family.” Jace pocketed his hands before saying.“That wasn’t her fault. It wasn’t her fault that she didn’t like you. Y
“Daryl, who is Tessie?” The question played again in his head.Daryl removed his hand off Amelia’s shoulders and took some distance. Amelia turned and looked at him, “What is he talking about? And who is Tessie in the first place?” She implored.“You can ask him, I don’t know what he is talking about.” Daryl said pretentiously. His eyes were interlocking with that of Jace.“Jace, if you don’t know what to say walk away and let me go have a nap.” Amelia started talking.“Why are you in a haste? Look him in the face and see how unfree he is. Do you think he doesn’t know who I am talking about?” Jace continued with his questioned. “Daryl, what is he trying to say? Who is this Tessie lady?” Amelia took some distance and asked.“Yes, Daryl, we need to know who is the Tessie, Jace is talking about.” Elsy added as she was eager to know what misery was behind the Tessie.“How can you ask Amelia to het married to you when you already have a fiancée? Is that normal?” Again, Jace asked. This qu
