MICHAEL WEST'S JOURNEY FROM TORMENT TO TRIUMPH THE LOVE BIRDS
Diana waited for the nurse who had promised to get the healer for her daughter. She hadn’t heard from her after a week. Her daughter hadn’t improved and the doctor was putting pressure on her to make a decision.‘Madam, if you don’t make a decision about the amputation, I will have to ask you and your daughter to leave our facility.’‘I have told you doctor to give me some more time to consider this. Moreover, don’t you think it is my daughter who is to make this decision? ‘It is because of the condition of your daughter, you have no choice than to make it on her behalf. She is in no state to make a decision now. You know this.’‘I understand what you are saying but understand me. Imagine that she wakes up, realises that her leg has been cut off, and then she hates herself for it. How do you think it would play out? She would hate me and blame me for not thinking about her.’‘Madam, this is no excuse. If you don’t make a decision, I am sorry I would have to ask the nurses to discharg
MICHAEL WEST'S JOURNEY FROM TORMENT TO TRIUMPH A COUPLE OF SETUPS

Why does she have to suffer this kind of humiliation at the hands of the new director of the park’s project? She walks into Clara’s ward thinking about this but as she saw her daughter laughing and gisting with her brother, she decided to keep it to herself. She would not want to spoil their mood.‘Welcome mama. How did it go?’ Clara asked.‘It went well. I will give details later. Has Liam come here yet?’It was Steven who responded. ‘The man has not come here. What’s up?’ he noticed that his mother was distressed. She scratched her forehead and looked around with her hands akimbo.‘Let me call him.’ Diana said. She picked up her phone from her pocket and dialed Liam’s number. Liam entered the room almost immediately.‘Oh I was just calling you.’‘You were? I was wandering where you had been all morning?’They stepped away from the room into t
MICHAEL WEST'S JOURNEY FROM TORMENT TO TRIUMPH LOVER'S QUARREL
It has been five days now and the pictures are still circulating. The whole of Beaumont is talking about it, but Michael doesn’t care. He believes it will blow over and no one will talk about once a news gossip comes to town. All he is worried about is his position at the company and Isabella. Michael has been trying to talk to Isabella but she was not talking to him or picking his call. Whenever he goes to her office to talk to her, she says she is busy and walks out on him or ignores him. She calls at her house and she would not see him. He gets upset. His mind is not at rest as he tries to find a way to get her to talk to him. Even if she wants to quarrel with him, it was better than giving him the silent treatment. There was a management meeting that was called. Cynthia had come to terms with the bad pictures of her boss, and Michael loved that about him. She stepped into the office and presented him with the agenda for the meeting together with the necessary report. ‘I have dr
MICHAEL WEST'S JOURNEY FROM TORMENT TO TRIUMPH FRIENDS AND BETRAYALS
Liam was in a joyful mood when he heard the knock on the door. The music he was playing was not loud but lost in the music. He didn’t go to open it at first, thinking it was someone in the neighbourhood doing some carpentry work. Then the knock came again. Lowering the volume of the music, he went to the door and opened it.‘Ah Diana, welcome. You came at the right time.’Diana came into the room, surprised by the music and the mood of the place.‘What is going on.’ She asked.Liam closed the door and came to where she stood and moved his waist in front of her. She laughed and covered her face with her hands. ‘Join me in dancing on the victory we have won today.’‘And what is that?’‘The park project has been stopped by order of the court.’‘Oh really.’‘Yes. Judge Turner approved the halting of the project till further notice. Since we didn’t get the project, any other person who wants to have it will not enjoy the peace of it. We will make sure to frustrate the plan.’‘So no work i
MICHAEL WEST'S JOURNEY FROM TORMENT TO TRIUMPH SPEND YOUR MONEY
It was Liam who saw her first. There was shock on his face. He pushed Diana aside and ran to Clara.‘It is not what you think.’ He begged. Clara looked him up and down, his zipper was still losing and his junior, which was now hanging low, was still visible. Diana saw Clara and sat on the bed. She didn’t say anything. Clara looked at them both and walked out of the apartment. Diana tried to pull Liam to myself for the bed to continue what they were doing before Clara came in, but he refused to join in. He just stayed silent, as he wore his clothes and dressed up. ‘Do n't allow that girl to spoil the fun?’ I said, trying desperately to diffuse the guilt he was feeling.Liam stopped what he was doing, looked at me as if I was mad and continued what he was doing.Diana got so irritated by his attitude, that she sat up and kneeling on the bed and barked at him. ‘I mean, why do you keep going back to her? Does she satisfy you the way I do? Does she make you feel good, feel like a man? S
MICHAEL WEST'S JOURNEY FROM TORMENT TO TRIUMPH BEAUMONT'S NOBILITY
The following evening, Clara stood before the assessing wrought- iron gates of the Donald estate, steeling herself for the battle ahead.She cut an intimidating figure in her satiny burgundy dress and towering stilettos, every inch the power player ready to claim her due place among Beaumont's nobility.Liam cast her a reassuring regard as the gates swung open, granting them entry to the strictly manicured grounds." Just flash back what we bandied. Stay confident, do not let Donald rattle you." Clara gave a curt nod. She did not need his advice- she had been preparing for this moment her entire life. The woman of a fat businessman, prepped from birth to navigate Beaumont's savage social waters with cunning and grace. They were steered into a cavernous study, the walls lined with bottom- to- ceiling bookshelves and priceless vestiges. Behind an assessing mahogany office sat a tableware- haired man with cold, setting eyes. Jonathan Donald in the meat. "Ms.Robert," he said by way of g
MICHAEL WEST'S JOURNEY FROM TORMENT TO TRIUMPH A STRANGE INVESTOR
‘Why haven’t you introduced me to Michael yet? I have been asking you this for the past hour and you don’t want to respond.’ the hit man asked Liam. They were at the Riviera hotel where they went to scout Michael. The man was not having it with Liam after sitting there for about one hour. Liam had just put down his phone after making a call to a friend to ask about Michael. Then he took a sip of his drink and responded.‘I have asked the hotel workers and they said they haven’t seen him for days now. it seems Michael is not in town.’‘Or it seems your chicken heart could not bear to do what needs to be done. So, you had to warn him.’‘What do you mean by that?’‘It is clear what I mean? What are you going to do?’‘Liam raised his hand to hit the man but he ran quickly, went to Liam’s side and pressed the barrel of his gun to Liam’s hip, and then he said.‘If you do anything funny, I will bury a bullet in your hip bone and you will never walk for the rest of your life. So sit down an
MICHAEL WEST'S JOURNEY FROM TORMENT TO TRIUMPH THE RECONCILIATION
Samuel Pearson didn’t want his name to be known. As someone who inherited considerable wealth from his family and has direct links to the great royal families of Europe, he strives to have his money and not rely on family. To him, relying on any family ties or connections is an insult to a person’s intelligence, because everyone is born intelligent, and what is the use of intelligence if it is not used.Samuel was really interested in donaldation because of Michael West. He had saved Michael from being killed by Liam and the Roberts family when they sought to take his life as revenge for their misfortunes, thinking that Michael had anything to do with it. The night the ship capsized on the Atlantic Ocean, it was all over the news and he was on a flight to Copenhagen to attend a business conference and visit his sister who was married to the archduke. He got on the phone with his secretary who was in Beaumont.‘I want you to look into Michael West and his connection with the Roberts fa

BEAUMONT CITY
As Michael West thought back on that day he noticed that night had settled in over Beaumont City. In the distance he could hear the news coverage of the Heroes' Parade playing on the television.The coverage was showing many troubling events including the arrests of Diana Roberts and Stevens the shocking moment when Liam had jumped to his death from the stadium and the overwhelming chaos that erupted after the truth came out about the Roberts family.Sitting alone in the room drinking a glass of whiskey Michael felt a profound sense of emotional distance and isolation from everything that had happened.He was very surprised when he saw Isabella standing at his door. Her shape was only partially visible because the light was dim and not very bright. They had gone through a really difficult breakup in the past and since then she had moved away to a different place.He hadn't seen her at all for many years so her sudden appearance caught him off guard. To make things even more complicated

WHEN THE CIRCLE COMES TO FULL POINT
They were in a house on the beachfront of Beaumont city. It was a little far from the beach but had fantastic view of the beach and the sea. The sun had risen early, as usual and there were few tourists on the beach.Steven was shocked and raised his hands but felt a surge of anger within him but he didn’t move. Instead he stood where he was. The other men had pulled out their guns too. Liam knew he was outnumbered to pull out his gun, so he appealed for calm.‘Please gentle men; let us be civil about his. The diamond belongs to all of us but we have bigger fish to fry and that is Michael west. Today is the day that we take his down at the Heroes’ Parade. After that, there will be more diamonds and money that our children will never know hunger for the rest of their lives. Let us embrace caution.’There was silence again before the first of the men who pulled out his gun began to laugh out loud. The rest joined him and started laughing. They raised their hands in surrender and put the

COLORS OF HATRED
Liam returned to his drinking, taking a sip while stealing glances at the game. A moment later, he turned to his friend, he found him looking smugly at his glass of drink.“Talk to me Nel. What’s going on? If it is about the listings, we got in and that should not be a problem.”“It is not about the listing, bro. It is something else. I guess you haven’t heard.”“Heard what?” Liam was signaling the barista for another drink.“Wells is being devalued.”Liam looked at him, saw the seriousness on his face, and waved for the barista to go. Realization hit him and he mumbled.“AB listings was just a cover. The wolves have gathered and want to have a feast.”Nelson nodded and added,“Whatever you do, don’t go face to face with the execs on Wall Street. They will kill your case before you even get a chance to present it.”“What do I do then?”“Be calm, receive the buy-out offer, and look through it carefully to find a way out. It could be an ambiguity in the words or misrepresentation. That

THE COMING
The knock came again, it was on his door. Who would be coming to his house? He had no friends or lovers? And Isabella had stopped speaking with him. Grudgingly, he walked to the door and opened. It was Isabella. Unlatching the locks quickly, he opened wide the door and bade her to come in.‘You are welcome. I am sorry I have been engrossed in a lot of work and didn’t hear the knocking on the door. How have you been?’Michael was not sure why Isabella would suddenly appear at this door without notice. Had something happened to her father? He thought to himselfShe smiled at him and tugged a loose strand of hair behind her ear. He smiled too. They were both standing in the centre of the room, uncertain what to do. Michael suddenly remembered that he had not offered her a seat. He was being a bad host.‘I am very sorry; I should have offered you a seat. Please have a seat.’‘No, its fine. I should be headed out now and allow you to finish up on your work.’‘Not so fast. At least have a d

SUBTERFUGE
The officer in charge walked briskly along the corridor. Liam and Steven followed behind staunchly, confident in their steps. The officer knocked on a door. A voice responded from inside.‘Come in.’The officer opened the door and stepped aside for the two men to step inside. Then he stepped outside and closed the door. The office was sparse, except for a few standing cabinets and picture frames on the wall; one was for the president of the country and the other was of the mayor of Beaumont city. There were other picture frames that showed the commissioner receiving awards. The commissioner’s desk stood on the far end on the other side of the room, directly opposite the door. ‘Mr Liam. Good to see you again.’ the man behind the desk stood up and walked over to where Steven and Liam stood. ‘Ah commissioner, it has been a while that we have spoken or seen.’ Liam responded.‘Ah yes.’ The commissioner said. ‘to what do I owe this honour?’‘I am here to an old friend concerning a matter.

SECRETS AND SPECULATIONS
Michael returned to the living room. He and Isabella discussed the cost of living crises and what the government should do. Isabella thought to herself, ‘so he heals and is intelligent too. What a good combination.’ She likes his use of words and the way he lays out his point carefully. ‘Let us stop now. Enough of politics and talk. Let us go and have some food.’Isabella laughed, dropped what she was holding on the table and walked with him to the table. The food was in bowls and plates sat in front of ach of the chairs, together with cutlery, the bottle of wine and glasses.Michael drew back her chair for her and allowed her to sit. Then he went over to his side. Opening the bowl, he dished some food for her before dishing for himself. He was telling her about the food and the process it takes to make it. She looked interested and asked questions too. Then they started to eat. The view from the penthouse was breathtaking, covering most of the city. She asked him about his backgroun

JUSTICE TO BE REAPED
Cynthia went out as Michael continued reading the newspaper. Thirty seconds later, the door to the office opened and someone walked in. Michael puts down his newspaper and stands. He has met Mr. Samuel before, when he was set up to be killed by Liam and Clara. This man had come to his aid and saved. Liam and Clara thought that they had killed him but Mr. Samuel came to the ditch, picked him up and sent him to the hospital. ‘Thank you for having me at this odd hour. I know it is past work time and I had to come at this time so that no one will notice my presence here.’‘It is fine my Samuel. Thank you for coming. I also want to thank you for the other time, for saving my life.’‘You and I have been acquainted before. And I thank you that at this time, you have decided to come to my rescue once again.’‘Well, it is a small world. You can be my helper tomorrow.’‘Yea. You are correct.’‘So, donaldation is going through quite a lot but there is nothing that cannot be salvaged. I intend t

STARS BURST
Two men walked into a bar and sat down. They ordered drinks and when the waiter had brought them, began to sip their drinks. Intermittently, they would look at their wristwatches and then at the door. Michael was in his office waiting for Abraham and to hear from Luke his Henchman. Abraham was not coming, so he called Luke to come into his office.‘I want to do something. Abraham is not here but I want you to look into the possibility of acquiring more assets into Roberts.’‘But sir, we have tried that and it is not going our way. I know a way we can get to the Roberts family and hit them where they will feel it the most.’Michael adjusted his body. ‘Tell me about it.’‘I am aware of some dealing the Roberts are doing with Amelia’s father, the girl who claims to have your child and sent videos and pictures on the day of the wedding, leading to the calling off of the wedding.’‘Yea, I remember her.’‘I heard from the underground that they were involved in some drug dealings and traffic

MORE PROBLEMS
Michael walked to his car, parked outside the gate by the curb. The guards would not allow him drive in, maybe as a way of Mr. Donald showing that he was not pleased with him, he didn’t know. However, he didn’t care; all he had on his mind was to get donaldation back on track of being the biggest company and employer in all of Beaumont. He got in his car and drove off into the night. He drove to donaldation headquarters and then to the airport. He has a meeting with Mr. Pearson. Cynthia went to get the report while Michael settles for the meeting. His phone vibrated and it was a text from clara. It read.‘I know you have been busy lately, but please have dinner with me, at the four season hotel. Bills on me.’ He looked at it and laughed. Clara decided to text him today. Something must be up. This lady must be joking, he thought.Isabella watched Michael giving his speech on TV. Their romance had ended a month ago but it seemed like yesterday when she met him and fell in love with hi
