Damon meets with Brandley and Philip at his hotel to discuss their progress and the next course of action.“How did it go with the Board, Philip?” Damon asked his acting representative of his business operations.“Went well actually, I got you covered on that front. You've got nothing to worry about.” Philip answered him, feeling very confident and comfortable.“And how about Elizabeth, how's she coping with you.” His inquiry into Elizabeth's state wasn't just out of concern but also because she hadn't reached out to him about the situation.“She's handling it all well. She got…we all got you.” Philip responded still maintaining his collected character.Brandley brought out a report and presented it to Damon and Philip, “This is the plan we have ongoing, our teams have intercepted several calls and messages in and out of Joyce's phone and we traced the calls to these contacts.”They looked at the report for a while and the contacts she had made and nothing out of the ordinary was in
Elizabeth goes to see Damon at his hotel, she called him to inform him of her arrival and he went out to open the door for her. “Welcome on in, Elizabeth.” He welcomed her to the living room of his hotel suite.Elizabeth entered and led her way with her apologize,“I'm sorry I didn't call or come to check up on you sooner since the whole Joyce situation. I've being working to keep our operations in one piece, sir.”“It's fine, Elizabeth. At least you're here now. So, what's the update at the office?” Damon asked her.“Nothing much, sir. The Board is still in one piece, thanks to Philip's brilliance in handling the situation with them.” She answered him, giving praises to Philip and his efforts.Damon nodded his head as he poured two glasses of drink, “I knew he was more than capable for the job,” he passed one on to Elizabeth, “That's why I gave him the task.”But Elizabeth turned down the offer to drink,“I'm sorry, sir. But we don't drink while at work.”Damon smiled and answered
“You're welcome to the Family Matters Show with Lindsay, and in tonight's episode on this show is an interview with the most trending internet sensation right now. A woman whom we all called crazy and disproved her story because of course, who cares about the ordinary citizens when the elites are involved?“But in a shocking twist from her exposition which blew up social media, thanks to Ivy Richmond, we've all learnt that our dear Prince, His Highness, Damon Langston, is not who we thought him to be. “So tonight, we've invited the woman who claims to be his wife, with evidence to prove, on the Family Matters Show to give us more details about her story. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome with me, Joyce Ramsey.”The crowd on set at the broadcasting house applauded and cheered as Joyce walked on stage. Cameras rolled on her as the whole world watched. This was her first interview with the legacy media since her exposition on social media and they had planned for it to be a bomb.“You're we
Joyce and her team arranged to meet at her hotel that morning to strategize the next phase of their actions. One after the other, they came in to meet her, they were all excited and ready for the cashout phase of their plan.After Joyce's interview with Lindsay where she mentioned she was filing for a divorce, the world had exploded knowing how detrimental that legal action could be on Damon Langston. The damages could toll on at least half of his fortune at that is if he hired the best lawyers and pulled many strings. His only hope of escaping all of these was to get evidence to disprove Joyce's story but Damon had none because the ladies played the cards.The ladies are gathered, the three musketeers who had just set the world's single largest empire on fire with the world's richest man burning in it. They poured themselves a bottle of champagne and were ready to celebrate their victory so far.“Cheers to the true queens of this kingdom. We know the game better and we play it well.”
Bella's observation from the bottle caused the party to stop or get interrupted again sooner than expected.“Joyce, this bottle has your name on it.” Bella handed it to Joyce, surprised like the other girls.Joyce collected it from Bella and confirmed the inscription of her name on the bottle.“Awnn…they are really thoughtful. I need to meet with the manager.” She said.“Hold on, this other bottle has my name on it,” Bella said, surprised the more. Her curiosity led her to check the next bottles, “And this has yours, Ivy.”“Why would they do that?” Ivy asked.“Maybe they were just being thoughtful, you know. Wanting to keep our patronage.” Joyce cleared the air.“Hold on a minute guys, something's not right.” Bella said, suspicious of the setting, “Each item here is in threes and I can see my favorites in all of them.”The ladies took a closer look at the items on the tabletop trolley, and they each confirmed their favorite items in each variety.“Is this a well-thought treat or is th
Damon began his story as everyone listened attentively, most especially, Joyce.“Once I was crowned prince of the kingdom, I was given a task to prove my worthiness for the position and potentially for the throne. The task was to do something that showed I was truly a king material, something huge, something that demonstrates wisdom, intelligence, and problem-solving.“You see, the issue with the assignment was that I needed a problem for me to display my problem-solving skills. You don't solve a problem when there is no problem now, do you?” He chuckled and everyone except Joyce and Ivy smiled.He continued,“I couldn't wait for problems to arise, that's unpredictable. So I did what some kings do, I borrowed a page from dictators' textbook. I created the problem I was going to solve.” He paused for a while, and sipped his glass of champagne, “Hmm…this is good stuff, you need to try it out, guys. Who's bottle is this?” He said as he sipped the drink further.Bella answered him,“It is
Damon's story had paralyzed Joyce as her jaw dropped and her body froze where she was. She thought to beg and apologize, but the words were not forthcoming and she feared interrupting him. Heartbroken and feeling betrayed by Bella, and powerless to Damon, she remained mute unable to even process the situation. In her heart, all she could ask was that Damon be merciful towards her yet, she couldn't say it out.Damon began laying down the exit plan for her in this story.“Once that documentary goes live by the said time, the lawsuit will be filed against you and before evening, the judge will issue a warrant for your arrest. Once you're caught and apprehended, that will be your last moment of freedom. So, you have few hours to run, hide, and escape if you can. Should you succeed, good for you, otherwise, you'll be served.” Damon hit her with the final play.Joyce startled back to reality and lay on the e floor, begging Damon to have mercy on her. She held his leg and cried but he wasn't
Ivy arrived at Sonia's place, panting heavily and in fear. It was dark and she'd come to Sonia's place to seek refuge against Damon's wrath. Sonia opened up for her and she entered.“Sis, please I need you.” She said to Sonia, panting and worried.“Calm down, Vy. What is it?” Sonia asked her, wondering why she was so worried and tried to calm her down.Ivy wouldn't stop pacing around and panicking, it was like she had seen a ghost or someone was after her.“Sonia. I need your help.” She continually cried out to her sister.Sonia knew Ivy was always a trouble seeker, always finding herself in one form of trouble or the other, despising all her warnings and when it blows back at her, she comes running to her like a puppy for help. This was one of those episodes, Sonia already knew how it ends.“Alright, Vy. Take a seat first.” She held her and helped her sit down on the couch, “You know I got your back. Relax.”Ivy sat down but still worried, always looking at the door like she was expe
