What do you think would happen to Roberto? Do you thibk he'll sign just like that?
They all arrived and the room was filled to the brim. I started sweating profusely even when all the air conditioners were turned on. My legs were shaking. My dad held my leg firmly and nodded his head. It seemed to have a little effect on me. My dad tried to stand up but I stood up before him and made him sit down back comfortably. "You can't stand now." I whispered in his ear. He cleared his throat before starting."I Raymond Lionel would be stepping down from my position as the CEO of Lionel corporation. Of all my thirty three branches worldwide would now be controlled by my son,Roberto Lionel." He tapped my shoulder.Everybody was shocked."Your son. I thought you never had a child." A woman with well polished nails said abruptly as she pushed her hair backward with her left hand."This is absurd. Did you just pick a child on the street to put as a CEO?" A fat man asked. His voice was very deep and he was bald and pale."That's nonsense." My dad hit the table and stood up. He fel
"Take the cups to the kitchen." I heard my mother in law voice and I pushed Grachi away gently."Didn't he answer when you called him?" My mother asked,ready to hit me again."He didn't answer ma. I've been arguing with him since. He even went to bath." She lied."Imagine. You are lazy and poor. How do you want to make it in life? I wonder what my Rosa saw in you." She yelled."I'm not a low life ma." I said and scoffed."Then what are you? A poverty striken person.I walked away from where she was standing to my wardrobe "Come downstairs when you're done. We have some visitors and you have work to do." She ordered and left with Grachi.I hissed when they left. I dressed casually and walked downstairs."Come here." My mother in law yelled as she spotted me coming down the stairs. There were some people in the sitting room. Two old people of the opposite gender and some kids. "I'm here ma." I said."Is that Rosa husband?" The old woman asked."Yes ma. I'm Roberto. Her husband." I an
I picked a random file that was heaped on my table. From my calculations,there have been series of corruption and manipulations occuring more than once with the same signature,approving the downgrading act. It was my step mother's,Audrey. "I'll get to the bottom of it too." I said to myself when a woman barged into my office with my secetary trying to catch up with her.She knelt on the floor. Her clothes were soacked with sweat and as I moved closer I was greeted by a foul smell. I tried to see her face but she bowed and her hair covered her face."Who are you and what do you want?" I asked as I rested on the neck of another chair."I'm sorry sir. I'm sorry for what I did the other day. I didn't know." She apologized without raising her head."How will I know who you are when you won't raise your head? I have many foes you know." I joked."It's me. The woman who insulted you at Lionel shopping mall." She raised her head slowing and the familar face greeted me. I'd remember her face
"Those are just your bodyguards sir." He answered and I was relieved."I thought my stepmother had paid some assasins to kill me." I said to myself.He took a sharp corner into my street and I stopped him."Will you excuse me please." I said and he alighted from the car.I took my clothes I had folded neatly and changed into them. I came down and my driver was shocked."You all can go now. Pick me here tomorrow, 8AM sharp." I ordered and left before he could say anything else. I spotted the white mansion again and took a picture of it on my phone. I sent it to Diana and asked her to negotiate. I wanted to buy the house. I'll be changing here everyday instead of changing in the car. I walked into the Parks mansion and I could feel the intense air. I said the Lord's prayer then entered. The whole family was here. My mother in law,father in law, their first daughter and her kids with her husband and my wife. There were planning something. "Here comes the loser in the family." Laura, R
"Good morning sir." He greeted as he dragged his feet on the tiled floor bowing. He was holding a files with his two hands."Good morning." I scoffed."I'm here for the job sir. Please I beg you don't push me away. I really need this job." He begged."So you already know what you did." I said.***********I was working as a mechanic in a garage sometime ago. A man came to drop his car and my boss asked me to fix it knowing that was my forte. I fixed the car but it wasn't done yet. It was remaining the brakes. The owner came to claim his car and I told him it wasn't ready yet."What do you mean it's not ready?" He yelled."I'm sorry sir. You can't go with this car yet. I'm not done with it." I explained and he continued yelling."What have you been doing since I've left you lazy bum? I paid for this and now you're telling me it's not ready. I have an important place to be." "I'm sorry for disappointing you sir. It's just remaining a small issue for me to fix and the car would be good
I turned and it was my mother holding a lunch bag."Mom! What are you doing here?" I asked her."To bring you lunch " She eyed."Here comes the slut." Audrey commented."Never call my mother that again." I warned.Audrey walked closer to us. "I know of your plans,I know you guys want to push me out and take over the company but it won't work. I'm the legal owner and this is my husband's comnpay." She said. "I and my son are not trying to push anyone out." My mom answered."Who gave you the right to talk,you maid." Audrey yelled."Don't call my mother that." I yelled. "Ha! You mean the woman who always washes my feet and does my laundry?" She laughed."That was before." My mother yelled back."You still have the guts to talk after stealing my husband." She yelled."I didn't steal him,he came to me." My mother justified herself."Coming from a slut. No matter what you do,you'd still be his mistress." She yelled.My mother slapped her and she slapped my mother back. They started fightin
"Next door?" I asked confused."Well I and Diego would be on our way. He has an exam to write today." My mom stood up."Bye and goodluck Diego." I said and they all left including my dad."Bye son and take care." "Did she say her name or leave a message?" I asked."No sir." She dropped the cupcakes on the table."Aha! There's a note sir. Welcome to our neighborhood from Miss Rosa Parks." She read. "My wife sent this?" I asked myself.Rosa looked at me clueless."How could she? Is she already thinking of marrying another person? Does she go in blind dates behind my back? Is this the reason she isn't always at home? Miss Rosa Parks?" All these questions flooded my mind and my head began to ache. "Was it a female who brought it?" I asked."Yes sir." Diana answered. i was disappointed. My wife,sending gifts to another man. "Maybe she just did to welcome him." I said to myself just to stay positive but I couldn't. "When the Edwards moved in she didn't welcome them why this?" I asked m
"Yes what?" I was forced to act. I couldn't keep my cool anymore."Are you eavesdropping?" My mother in law asked reading to throw me a slap."No ma." I answered."I'll give you girls the gist later before he casts an evil spell on my daughter." My mother in law yelled. "Let's discuss another topic then. Any company you're eyeing for a contract?" The woman wearing a blouse asked."Yes. The Lionel corporation." She answered and everyone gasped."We all have been trying for years and we've always been rejected? What makes you think they'll give you?" The woman in black gown asked. "I'll use Rosa to get why I want." My mother in law said and I clenched my fist."You all should wait and watch how I'll plan this game." She said and they all laughed."If Rosa can join the Lionel family,we all would be swimming in money." The woman on blouse spoke. "Yes my dear friend. I cant wait." My mother in law squeaked. I finished painting her nails and went upstairs to my room."My wife is interest
