As soon as she left, she picked her phone and called her husband, she was eager to hear from him.
He looked at him and he permitted him to pick the call with a nod with head. He cleared his throat and pretended to be very happy, he didn't want her to suspect anything. He picked the call.“Hello dear, how are you?”“I'm fine and you?” He answered in a deep voice.“It's past the time of your arrival and you didn't call me. Or don't you want me picking you up at the airport again?”“I was about to call, I cancelled last minute.”“Why?” Mrs. Jan asked rather in an angry tone.“I have an emergency meeting with a client of mine.” He lied.“This meeting couldn't wait? You've been away for months.”“He contacted me last minute and said it's about a huge proposal. I couldn't resist it but I'll be back tomorrow.”“You better be. We had a visitor today. Guess who?”“My sister, Gladys?”“Your father authorized us to follow you wherever you go.” The first military man said.“I said I'll be fine. I just want to see a friend in the next avenue, no one knows I'm going there.”“For all we know, your adversary might be watching and we can't flout your father's orders.” The second military man insisted.“And I insist that I must go alone!” Maya said almost in tears. “We can't let you do that.” The first military man said, without looking at her.They stood erect behind her and when she took a step they followed her. She took another and the same thing happened.“What about my privacy? Is this invasion of privacy?” Maya asked shouting at the top of her voice.They kept straight faces and looked forward, not minding how she felt.“Sweetheart, it's for the best. Derek made it clear that you'll see him. We don't want that to happen.” Margret said with empathy.“I don't care, it's the next street
“Where does he get this money from?” Mr. Asher bewildered at what he saw.“I don't….know.” He said panicking, his voice trembling.“He definitely has someone behind him supplying his all this money. Maybe a particular government behind this.”“For what reason, to start a war?” Mr. Windsor asked.“Not a war, something even more. Something that surpasses our thinking or imagination.”“We need to see Green, maybe that's why we couldn't reach him over the phone.” Mr. Windsor said.“I'm thinking the same thing too.”“I'm on my way at the moment. Let's meet there, yeah?”“Definitely, I'm just about to get my keys. Let's know what's wrong with him.” Mr. Asher said.“Okay, we'll meet there.” Mr. Windsors said and ended the call.***“It seems like your boss is something we don't know yet. There's something we don't know about him just yet.”“What about him? You said not to speak
“The richest man, that should be Mr. Windsor if I'm correct. I wonder why you're so happy to see him. You have seen him several times, I wonder why this time is different.”“It's not Windsor anymore. Have you not seen the news?”“Pertaining?”“Mr. Green’s automobile company, he's lost it to Lord Davin.”“Lord Davin? The same one that took out almighty Derek and now he's no longer a part of the cartel?”“Yes the same one, he's the richest man I've ever come across in my life.”“Why's he not yet on the forxe's list?”“Because he just realized he's the heir of the Ancient Lord's wealth of Egypt and is entitled to seventy percent of the benefits of the Oil exporters league in the country.”“That's so much money dear! This realization is a real turnaround in his life.”“A real one, and that's who I met with. Something better is coming, better than what that loser offers me.”“So your mind is m
Mr. Asher waited in his guest living room for one hour along side Mr. Windsor before storming into the main house in search of Mr. Green. He inquired of the first guard and two kitchen staff members before finding his wife standing in front of what he guessed would be the masters bedroom. Fortunately for the servant around and his job, he saw his wife. He lied to them to wait and kept on his normal activities like they meant nothing! Did he know who they were? Do they treat billionaires that way?“What in the hell is going on here?” Mr. Asher demandedJane smiled pretentiously as she thought they were dumb. “May I ask, what you're referring to?”The servant showed a little bit of fear although he tried hard to hide it. He knew he was referring to him. He was instructed by his boss to avoid contacts with them sternly. He was only doing what he was told to do.“It's okay. Calm down Asher.” He patted Mr. Asher calmly then turned to Jane. “We want to
“Your wife is all of a sudden arrogant!” Asher said as he walked up to the door and closed it. He looked around and admired the room, “I've never been here but your room is very cosy I must commend you.”Mr. Windsor sighed, he was getting pissed off. “C'mon man, sit and let's hear him. This is not the right time to feed your eyes with pictures and surrounding environments.”“Alright! Green, what's the matter?” Asher asked.“She blames my blind loyalty to you for the jeopardy I find myself.” He sighed then continued without any interruptions, “ he told me he would do exactly what he did to Derek but I thought he was bluffing.”“Blind loyalty? When was this? What is happening?” Me. Windsor said with an exasperated frenzied look.“It wasn't news to me that Derek wasn't the CEO of Madison Enterprise anymore last Friday. He had told me before time but I didn't believe him. He told me I should join him in taking you down but I refused. I t
He stood in front of the mirror, knotting his tie. He had difficulty in making it that perfect inverted triangle and now he needed help. “Darling, please come help me, I'm running late.”“You know I got my own stuff to do and I'm a woman, look for someone to do these things.”“Guards! Guards?Guards!”“Yes sir!” A servant rushed in quickly and bent his knee. “Yeah, go get me Isabella or Maya!”“Isabella? She knows nothing about ties. Look at you, you don't even know your daughters.” Margret said with pity in her voice“No you can't say that, just don't know which is better at knotting ties doesn't mean I don't know them.”“If you say so,” she continued her makeup, laughing at his ignorance. “What are you still doing here, kneeling like a fool! Go get her!” Mr. Windsor ordered on top of his voice.“Yes sir!” The servant answered meekly.“Last night, you were very tired, what happened?”
The office air smelt nice, his secretary must have got a different air freshener but that wasn't his concern right now. He needed to find the catalog of assets so that he knew his standing. He increased the level of the air conditioner before sinking into his executive chair. He drew the first drawer out and started searching, shortly after he heard a knock. Then the door slid open a bit, then fully. It was his secretary.“Come in, come in.”“Sorry sir, I saw your car outside, I wasn't very sure it would actually be you.”“So you want to question me on why I'm in my office this early?”“No sir, it's just unusual not wrong.”“I am searching for the file containing all our investment here and abroad infact.”“I can help with that sir.”“Also I need the inventory on all our assets.”“Sorry to ask sir, but why is it so important.”“I don't pay to ask questions, I pay you to meet my demands.“
“Maya have you seen this?” Isabella said, with her mouth wide open.“Please leave me alone, I'm not interested.” Maya dismissed her.“This is not one of my shenanigans, I'm serious, it's about dad.” Isabella insisted, her eyes fixed on the phone, walking slowly to meet her.“What about dad?” Maya asked carelessly.“He's in the hospital, maybe that's why mom rushed out without saying a word.” Isabella said, still scrolling her phone.“Hospital? What's wrong with him.” Maya asked but Isabella was too engrossed in reading the information that she didn't really hear her.“Give me that phone.” Maya collected the phone forcefully and fed her eyes as well. “Heart failure? Man was alright this morning, I saw him with my bare eyes this morning.”“Give me my phone back, you've got yours.” Isabella demanded after looking at the phone alongside Maya.“Take it and go away. You've passed the information.” Maya said, taking ou
