Jake garnered some level of growing confidence in expressing himself before he drowned without attempting to save himself.

His eyes were somewhat overly widened against Morris in a staunch defense against his repeated accusations.

The atmosphere abruptly went silent which gave the two men the chance to continually stare at each other with lots of sneering and sighing.

Sheraton, who was preparing to blurt out a scornful laugh against Jake and John after the premeditated appearance of Morris, was shunned at the proactive response of Jake.

She rotated her eyes at all the men in the office, including Michael Scofield, who maintained an approachable demeanor thus far.

John's facial expression suddenly started coming alive after the epic defense from his colleague— he nudged his neck and rolled his eyelids against Morris as a smidge of confidence sprinkled on his guts.

The new COO wasn't entirely surprised by Jake's proficiency in words and his quickness in propelling a defense mechanism to

    Jake, John, and the other junior staff had their eyes darting across the door in anticipation of the unexpected guest(s)They presumed the company that the new COO was referring to was just Morris, little did they know more people would be welcomed sooner.As the doorknob seemed squeezed, and the door gradually swung open— their hearts profoundly jolted in confusion, with their feet running cold.It was looking like the CEO of Afrik Industries had something cooking up underneath that they failed to realize in time.Michael Scofield smiled inwardly and codedly gave Morris a thumbs up on how the situation had been handled thus far.Sheraton, in her usual posture, had her right leg crossed, her facial expression quite welcoming while waiting for the other personnel.Within a three-second countdown, two men gently walked inside the office, all dressed in corporate attire, with one brown envelope each on their palms.Their demeanor was mild as they went further to greet Michael, Morris, an

    Michael was swift with his demanding tone, not giving Jake enough time to cook up another set of defensive mechanisms.He knew if given a few moments of introspectiveness, Jake would most likely discover a new route of escaping the prevailing circumstance.Morris and his subordinates folded their arms while stealing spiteful glares at him.“Why the efforts to destroy my image? Where did you get those ridiculous account details from?”“Boss, I know what Morris is doing right now. Please don't fall for it. Anyone could manufacture such purported files as evidence.”Despite Michael's threatening tone, Jake managed to find defensive words to keep his guard afloat.Technically, Morris presenting a mere file that had fraudulent account details wouldn't be enough to back up his heavy accusations against Jake.There was no evident connection with the alleged personnel and, hence, could be argued or declared inconsequential.Jake swiftly realized that and used that as a stance to defend himsel

    Michael, Sheraton, and Morris exchange bewildered eye contact and gradually wear back a mocking outlook.Apparently, that would be the first time they'd hear the smooth talker admit to being caught about something.Jake's indictment had been ongoing for hours, and despite Michael and Morris's audacious aura, he always had his ways with words, but that seemed to have changed with his last affirmative expression: ‘I’m Fucked!’His cohorts also exchanged gripping glances that etched profound shock and defeat— it was looking like the end of the road for them all.“Haha! You're fucked? Not yet Jake, we just got started!”“I thought you acclaimed to have been innocent and the CEO of Afrik left his daily endeavors to lay ridiculous accusations against you. Huh?”The goddess of beauty was the first person to taunt him after his last expression.Michael and others were busy laughing so hard that she had the chance to embarrass the smooth talker further.“Ohh, you've suddenly gone silent, you'r

    Michael winked at Morris, who understood the coded language and exited the office after a few moments of belittling glances and glares at Jake and his disoriented cohorts. The conversation that would soon be held was much critical and sensitive and Morris wasn't a staff but a client and shouldn't know the full shit going on in Eric Cottage Winery Enterprise. Underneath the exit-coded sign was an agreement that was already in motion. Michael's phone chimed, and it was from Lord Eric Sanchez, who couldn't help but check up on his boy. Since he gave Michael a new life in his abode, they hadn't stayed more than twenty hours within two days without their eyes meeting. He'd have left his mansion already to the winery company to affirm if Michael was truly present in the office like Sheraton confirmed earlier when he called in. Michael quickly indulged Lord Eric in a quick text message to help have his nerves settled and worry less about him. “You had enough time to construct th

    Michael Scofield’s words were wrapped in diplomacy in order to catch a glimpse of other participants involved in illegal transactions.He believed if he could lay hands on one of the perpetrators to find others wouldn't be much of a headache.The bigger question is whether Jake and his cohorts would decide to solely bear the consequences and save others who could be involved.For some special reasons, Michael believed the hammer hadn't completely hit the nail.He somehow believed there would be someone or others involved that hasn't been exposed yet and he was bent on making the twisted adventure much simpler.The devastated apprehended staff were still plunged to the ground while they exchanged pitiful eye contact among themselves.They were deciding on how to reply to the COO’s question while using winks and brow wiggles to communicate codedly.“The choice is yours! Would you want to fall alone or would you decide to have guilty companies beside y'all while falling?”Michael began o

    Jake's vehement words plunged profound silence into the atmosphere and had all eyes profusely glancing at themselves.He didn't sputter, nor was there any form of stutter while he was making further revelation about the next partner in the decorated shady business.Michael Scofield couldn't help but blink his eyelids at Sheraton, who had resumed with her video recordings a while ago before Jake made the last expression.From her facial expression, it was crystal clear that her nerves were enmeshed in shocked surprise.The goddess of beauty couldn't have guessed the name that Jake mentioned even if a sectorial investigation had been conducted.Jake had his face lowered, his heart banging in frustration, he knew it was a matter of time for the full consequences of his ill actions to catch up with him.He wasn't ready to foster any goddam legacy that was initiated by the ex-COO— if he'd fall then others must fall alongside him.Michael had over twenty seconds to digest Jake's confession

    Sheraton temporarily paused the video recordings and handed her device over to Michael Scofield with an approachable demeanor.She wanted to communicate with the Marketing department through the configured intercom but the COO wiggled at her to apply a different approach.A smidge of further information etched in Michael's mind and he felt calling to inform Lilian could be a wrong move.If she was guilty, as Jake and John had affirmed, then one had to be quite meticulous while dealing with her.For her not to seem far from a suspect list but behind the fraudulent perpetration showed how uniquely skilled she was and shouldn't be taken for granted.Sheraton halted from her initial thought process and withdrew her hands to herself while waiting for the COO’s further instructions.John, Jake, and others were obviously dumbstruck, but their hearts and ears were induced on what Michael's next play in action would be.“When was the last time y'all saw Lilian? Shortly after my welcome at the

    Whatever the reason was, the button line was Michael would most likely benefit from Jake's personality of not falling alone.Michael brought out a piece of paper and wrote out clear instructions with bold capital letters.It seemed like in each minute of events— the new COO had a unique pattern of handling the inward fraudulent activities.“You’d call Lilian and inform her as follows…”Michael handed the piece of paper over to Jake and temporarily gave him back his phone for a specific assignment.“You had better not try anything stupid. Make sure the phone call is on loudspeaker. I want to hear every single word.”He uttered while wearing a serious outlook— it was over three minutes after Lilian sent a text message across, hence she should be expecting feedback from Jake.Lilian noticed Jake and John hadn't been in their designated offices for over an hour and had to chime Jake's phone with an urgent inquiry text message.She was most interested to know the motive behind the meeting

    “You would have to drop me off before heading home.”Michael Scofield quickly signaled the driver immediately Lord Eric Sanchez disconnected the intense phone call conversation.The driver nodded politely. “Aye.”He redirected his route and expressed further: “Lord Eric's residence is less than thirty minutes.”Michael gave in to a deep breath and readjusted on the backseat while his mind flooded with diverse thoughts.Initially, he wanted to have extra words with Mr. Snow and check up on Davidson before heading back to the mansion.There was still an unfinished conversation about the possible suspect who could have poisoned Davidson which was a matter that needed to be dealt with.Demands had skyrocketed with plans abruptly changed while tension intensified.Michael had to redirect his thought to where it originally was before the first healing adventure popped up.He needed to know the discreet figure who had been fighting anything connected with Lord Eric from the shadows.Michael

    Michelle narrowed her eyes and zoomed Gerald Sanchez closer while his last words rang a bell in her head.Marshall blinked his eyelids in slow motion, his tongue unconsciously rolling across his premolars while digesting the words of Bold-9.Each minute that exceeded with Gerald widening his mouth to words— a more shocking revelation seemed to be revealed.Michelle, in a hundred years, would have imagined that the code name: “Bold-9” was coined in a jail center.Little wonder they never knew Lord Eric had an older brother because of his imprisonment. Huh?!The dance beat intensified, and each of the tones echoed a looming danger, a lurking threat, a resentful, aggravated enemy who wouldn't rest until his younger brother felt the heat of his scornful return.Michelle was about to gut out some words but Gerald shushed her to swallow them in.He already presumed what she was able to ask and wanted her to save her breath.Michelle nodded in alignment and receded her tracks with about two

    Marshall and Michelle had the privilege to learn of the root actions that led to the bad blood between the two brothers.It was crystal clear that Gerald felt unloved seeing his younger adopted brother got most of the love from their father.However, it seemed like there was more that transpired which Gerald hadn't disclosed yet.Michelle has unanswered questions plunged in her sensory organs about the discord in the Sanchez family and would love to know more about their dispute.Marshall, in thoughts, blamed Gerald's father for opting to honor his late father's wish to adopt a male child when they already had a son.It wasn't surprising that Marshall would be quick to apportion blame on Gerald's father. If he could schemed to have his father eliminated then anything is possible from him.Gerald, in hot breath, helped himself with a 75CL bottle of water, room temperature, to wet his dried throat.He was still getting used to having people see his exact face. He can't remember the last

    The crowd roared in alignment and began to jam their hands in harmony, their faces nodding in unison.Within ten seconds they began to slam their feet on the floor like there was a remote button controlling their actions.Their body movements became more synchronizing and were a form of adequate entertainment for Michael Scofield, Jonathan, and, of course, Mr. Charleston to enjoy.The three men didn't know if they should bash into laughter or just stand at a spot to observe the sudden harmonized epic performance of the crowd.The media representatives didn't hesitate to rotate some of their cameras to pick some historic shots from their energized performance.Charleston, Jonathan, the netizens, and viewers across the globe pondered and wondered how almost everyone in the mall reacted in the same manner as though they had already rehearsed their steps.Michael's blood flow tingled, and he chimed a smile in the belief it should be the Angel Force in action.If they weren't, how then was

    With a creeping instant orderliness, the crowd suspended their whispering to grasp what Charleston would spill next. Charleston was enjoying the moment of astonished attention and wanted to maximize it to the fullest. He can't remember the last time he commanded such a level of attention from a large audience with their hearts struck with curiosity to hear him speak. For the fact his revelation and the Will update were all connected to Michael, who has gained high recognition from people across European countries— he believed they would pay attention to what he had to say, and it worked like spellbound. Barely twenty-four hours ago, Charleston was able to remember most of the things that happened; the unfaithfulness, scornful betrayals, and heartbreaks inflicted by those he loved. He made a promise to Jonathan to fix things up and bring Michael Scofield to the limelight of his business legacy to ensure his shameless wife, disgraceful lawyer and his so-called fraud of a daught

    The atmosphere thickened in shock! Absolute bewildermentBodies froze in motion with the eyelids barely blinking.There were a few seconds of induced silence before mouths wagged in screams and chattering.It seemed like Charleston's last expression had such a powerful effect on everyone in the mall that none could spill a word after grasping what he said.They have never known someone who revealed what would be the content of his will in a public space even before his demise.Charleston didn't want to follow the legal procedures of writing his will with the guidance of a trustworthy lawyer.The last time he did that— he suffered great regret, unfaithfulness, and betrayal.He wanted to do things differently, given the fact there was no standing law that stated he couldn't.Also, he intended to ridicule the malicious efforts of his shameless wife, a disgraceful lawyer, and the desperate fraud of a daughter to eliminate Michael in order to bury the truth for life.He wanted to use one s

    Instantly there was an uproar of scream and eye bulging!Michael narrowed his eyes in surprise but tried to maintain composure.It was gradually making sense to him why Michelle, Catherine, and Fredrick plotted for his painful demise.They sneered at the thought of Michael being in charge of Charleston's inheritance and had to do something permanent to avoid that.Indeed, he would have continually remained a threat to them even after divorcing his ex-wife and they had to go to the extreme.Everyone in the mall, including the media representatives, had their lips gasping in profound shock at the unfolding drama.Charleston's revelation hit them like an alarm without warning.They wouldn't have envisaged the former inventory officer becoming the CEO of Charleston Park Shopping Mall with other huge assets and properties in his name.Michael was obviously wealthy and has made a name of being the efficient COO of Eric Cottage Winery Enterprise but with his ex-father-in-law bequeathing nine

  • Chapter 136: The Revealed Secret!!!

    For some moments Michael's mind drifted from the main purpose that made him follow Charleston's path to the shopping mall.He nodded with a mysterious beam enmeshed on his face. Charleston winked at him and patted his shoulder before receding his tracks to where Jonathan was.He hadn't forgotten why he brought his ex-son-in-law to the mall and despite the secondary plan to welcome him in grand style.The primary purpose was to reveal something to him.The honorary reception from the staff and customers of Charleston Park Shopping Mall has been worthwhile.The day's events had been plunged with several outcomes.From healing Davidson and Oliver King to accepting a meeting with his ex-father-in-law now he was on the verge of discovering the long-hidden secret.If Michael could share himself into different bodies, he would have willingly done that to meet up with the warming requests of most persons inside the mall.Michael embraced those he could and participated in several group selfie
