He said, gazing at the plastic of fruits he had in his hands before gazing back at his mother-in-law with a pitiful face."What joke is that, huh? Didn't you see fruits here before forcing yourself to go and buy more? You always want to do more. Please leave that place before I change it for you." Elizabeth stated with a grin on her face.Left with no choice, he was forced to close the door behind him.

"What the hell is going on here?" Jace asked again, this time his voice was harsh, making Amelia gasp in fear.With anger stroking his face, Blake made a U-turn and faced Jace.

His voice was low, but it was enough to make Jace get mad at him."Are you taking me for a fool? Do you mean to say I didn't see what was happening here?" He asked angrily."I was just arranging her hair, nothing more," Blake said, keeping his voice very low."I know you don't work here. Would you kindly leave? My wife has other things to do." Jace said, turning to the door.At this minute, Amelia intervened. "What makes you think you can badge inside my office and decide to give orders? Have you gone nuts?"

"Get your miserable self off me," Blake said harshly, but this didn't move Jace as he only tightened his hand against his neck."Are you afraid, huh? I want you to repeat the nonsense you said in there. I want you to face me man to man." Jace gritted his teeth in anger."You are insane man, I wonder where Amelia got a man like you.

Jace took some considerable distance away from his wife, as he did not understand why his wife was talking to him that way."What do you mean by that?" Jace widened his eyes trying to comprehend what she was trying to say."Do you mean I don't deserve you?" He added, waiting for her to speak up."Yeah, that's what I'm trying to say. You don't deserve me at all. Have you ever seen Adora's husband behave the way you do? Look at Elsy's husband. Are your attitudes similar?""I know you don't belong to the wealthy clan, and I'm perfectly aware of that. But at least, you can try to belong. There's no harm in you imitating these people. Right now you are behaving like someone who is possessed" Amelia stressed out."Wait, do I need to remind you that you were the one who forced me into this? I was in my lane, and you came toward me. Now what? You say I'm possessed?" Jace said with a look of appointment.Yeah, he was used to her insulting him, but she had never for once made use of the word po

“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.

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’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.

“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

“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.

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.

“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?

“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?
