The sun rose again indicating day break, a day where few humans would wake up and fewer will see the next sunrise. The contrasting beauty of the sun over the horizon and the Hunan's hostile nature made one wonder the splendor of the being who created all things. The blanket covered his knees and in his hand was a glass of white wine- a prelude to the breakfast he had already ordered. “Awe-inspiring, my ancestors had outdone themselves.” He said, gazing out of the window. The door bell rang, he came down and opened the door, it was James. He was quite anything Davin wanted him to be, a driver when he needed a ride, a delivery man when he needed food, a friend when he needed companionship. In all, James was a loyal and versatile servant.“I got you all you need for the week, I'm thinking you sent the list because you don't want to step out.” James said, dropping the items one by one.“Well said and very thoughtful of you to help out.” Davin acknowledged his assistance, “where are you
Derek arrived thirty minutes after theMr. Robb's call. He drove like he was in a competition and needed to hit the first position, he parked his car and hopped out hastily. He knew he needed to have a good reason for coming late, one that would pacify them. He was thinking while on his way, but he's was actually blank, no lies to tell.He opened the conference room door and entered. He put his hands together like he was about to pray and pleaded.“My board of governors I know I'm late, I apologize for the inconveniences, I had a flat tyre. Now that we're all here, let's get to business of the day.”“We accept your apology. Let start what we came here for.” Mr. Robb said, observing everyone as they nodded in unison.“I was told you received text messages from a certain number posing as Beta Group and the messages said I'm no longer the owner. Is this correct?”“Yes Mr. Jack, this is correct. We have gone to his office to schedule a meeting but he was engaged in something else at the t
It was going to be a long night. She had to hatch out a plan to bring out her faceless boss. But what could she do? She found solace in drugs and now that she was brought back from the dead, she couldn't try it. What would take away her pain and still give her the innovation she wanted? No one knew!She turned round her bed and finally stopped in front of her phone then it rang. It was the faceless boss calling past work hours. What could he possibly want, she could only find out when she picked.Good evening boss.Sarah said and waited to hear why he called so late.The board of governors want to meet right?Davin asked, but he already knew the answer.Yes they want to.Sarah replied hastily, praying that what he said was what she expected.I'll be throwing a party at the mansion. I'll send the tickets to you tomorrow. Only those invited should be there.Davin said conclusively.Okay sir. I'm looking forward to receiving it tomorrow.Sarah said happily.The tickets won't contain the venue
GOODNEWS ALAS!“Hello, Peter, you have the courtesy to finally call. So thoughtful of you.” Derek said sarcastically.“I'm sorry boss, I got carried away by our victory so I slept off.” Peter apologized.“That's really interesting. I'm sure you need my applause, to commend you for a work well done. It doesn't change the fact that you kept me in the dark!”“As I said earlier, I apologize for a my insubordinate act. I'll report always from now on.” Peter replied repentantly.“So what happened because Mario called and said the boy didn't do his part.” Derek asked.“That's because I did his part, I have her in my palms and she's working for us now.” Peter said excitedly.The joy Peter in sharing the news was commensurate on the other end. He was so cold and lackadaisical. He got what he so much wanted but his spirits wasn't high. Peter suspected something was wrong. Something else bothered him apart from the fact that he didn't report on time.“I don't need to know the details, as far as
MANIPULATING THE PAWNHe rushed out quickly to break the good news to Margret or Madam Margret, so she was called. He would take all the praise for eventually working out a ting to see Luther II, the terrorizer of the rich. Indeed the brain actually contained the head. He entered the dinning with smiles on his face. Maya was the first to notice his ebullient countenance and couldn't help but be vivacious as well.“What's making you so happy?” Maya asked.Everyone turned to look at him. Victoria looked all around him and saw him with envelopes.“I bet the good news is in that envelope.” “Spill the beans, suspense isn't good for me.” Isabella said anxiously.He kept smiling and spinning his eyes. His silence made them even more anticipatory that Margret couldn't contain it anymore.“Son, what's the matter? Say it.”“Luther II has invited the Windsors to a party tomorrow night and we'll get to see him finally.”“Wow! That's great news. You've really proven to be very useful and smart. I
“You seem nervous, what do you think I want to ask.” Peter asked curiously.“Well I don't know,” she breathed out deeply, “don't keep me in suspense, what's it?”“I'm more interested in what you're thinking than what I'll say.” Peter said, smiling at her.“Well you can't hear it if you're not speaking.” Sarah said confidently.“I want to know the venue, where is it taking place?” Peter asked, drawing close.“I don't know, as you know, we've never met and he's never shown me.” Sarah replied.“I thought you were loyal to your boss and not willing to betray him. It doesn't seem like anything is stopping you.” Peter asked disappointedly.“It's because it is you, I find it hard to say no.” Sarah said solemnly, with her face down.He predicted her coming closer to him something else could occur, something which she loved but he wasn't going to give her that pleasure. He stood up and started heading home.“Since you don't know, I'll be on my way home.” Peter said casually.“You're just using
Maya found Isabella and her boyfriend kissing in her room, the door was a little open. It wasn't a chaste kiss. It was a deep and passionate kiss. Maya knew such shouldn't interest her but she couldn't help but stare at the light skinned young man who got her sister enthralled in his web of magic. She blatantly gawked at her sister's naked passion for him and his for her.It was at this point she knew her sister was deeply in love with him. The saying that men were manipulated by love was totally truth. Isabella couldn't endure even a fly hurting her but freely allowed her boyfriend chastise her. She called it a couple's fight and insinuated that she knew nothing about it. Imagine her baby sister! What did she know about love? Knows nothing of a couple's fight? She was once a couple with Davin and she fought everyday with him, or is that not included as fight?It was the first time she had witnessed her boyfriend being completely different from her first impression. He was sweetly ena
It was best to say that there were always going to be bad days but better days were here sooner than expected. The young man who was humiliated in a birthday party was the reason they were all going to gather today. He couldn't wait for it, he anticipated a lot of retribution, it was a day to be happy about. It was few minutes past 2am and too much happiness made him lose sleep. He went to the paseo, his balcony was an elegant space which consisted of expensive antiques and sophisticated items. He stood behind the railings with a glass of wine at his right hand side. He wore a white shirt which white trousers. It was a beautiful view from where he stood.The martial arts veteran smiled at the street lights that are the city glow and sipped his wine tastefully. They were actually new ways of enjoying the misfortune he was about to put the Windsors and Derek in, like sitting up here watching them suffer grossly for their inability to see beyond the veil covering their eyes. The veil of
