“Nothing happened, they just ganged up against me, everything was going smoothly and then, they woke up one morning and decided to call a meeting, it was your will so I had to respect it,”His will was used against him by the people he thought would have his back. He couldn’t believe Rekha of all people would do that to him. “What nonsense, how could they, they never spoke a word to me either,”he let out. “Maybe because they expected you to go back to coma, maybe they don’t want you to know, they didn’t even report that you were up and okay, the only reason I found out was that I came to get my tooth fixed and saw your doctor who told me you were awake, they are doing everything to keep you silent,”Pedro let on. It made sense; why else would they have kept everything away from him and also, why would the public not be made aware that he was awake, he was sure his coma would have affected the company’s stock and every other thing and the news of his return would have set all doubt
“I will let you rest, just know that I am always here to help and all you have to do is call for me,”He nodded and Pedro walked out. He closed his eyes and went over what he had talked about with Pedro. He couldn’t believe so much happened while he was away for such a short period. What would happen once he was dead? Would the two of them divide everything he owned between themselves while mocking him? He just couldn’t believe Rekha had the mind to do such a thing to him after everything he did for her. She walked in at that moment, he opened his eyes and just seeing her smile made him mad, how could she smile like that to him after everything she did behind his back, she was one deceitful woman who had the best poker face to hide behind. “Why are you frowning? Did you miss me?”She asked; coming to hug him on the bed. He wanted to push her away but he resisted; what had he been thinking, why else would a young woman like her marry him, he deluded himself into thinking she was doing
“Whatever Pedro told you; I don’t care what he said, all you need to know is that he made those things up and he is trying to get us against each other, you better not believe him,”Gianni let out. “I didn’t ask you to explain, I want to see the young man, call him,” Gianni glared at the old man, this was the first time that she was genuinely mad at him ever since they got married, the fact that he believed she and Nathan were having an affair so blindly, just shows he has little or no trust for her whereas she trusted him. She couldn’t believe she has lived in constant fear that he might not make it and now that he was back, instead of being grateful for what they did for him, he was listening to Pedro of all people, that fucker that didn’t even wait for him to pass before he started running down his company, Gianni was damn sure he made up other lies to cover up the reason he was thrown out of the company. “Just call Nathan and stop looking so angry, you can just say nothing is h
Nathan looked to where his phone was kept, he wasn’t expecting to get a call from Gianni since it was Saturday, he expected to rest. Seb was still at the hospital and she was spending all her time with him. He took the call. “Nathan, Seb wants to see you,”Gianni's voice echoed over the phone, she sounded very pissed. “What’s going on?”He asked, already on his feet. “You will have to find out by yourself when you come around, meanwhile, the old man is talking a whole lot of nonsense so you might want to brace yourself,”She answered. He didn’t like how she sounded and the fact that she wasn’t telling him what happened straight up didn’t help either. “I am on my way,”He answered and the call ended. He was alone as his sisters both went out with their friends, he went upstairs to his room to change, still wondering what would have made Gianni pissed and why she said to brace himself, did he somehow find out what happened? Even if he did, he had no reason to be mad at them, if anyt
“So, are you finally going to tell me what kind of relationship you have with my wife?” Sebastian asked when it was just the two of them, Nathan stared at him in confusion wondering why he would even think he had any other kind of relationship with Gianni, it was just so not what he expected Seb to be worried about but apparently, that’s what he wanted to know. “I already told you what kind of relationship we have, I don’t know what else you want me to say,” Nathan responded firmly. “I have proof that you both are intimate,”Nathan stared at him, maybe the old man wasn’t okay yet, maybe something messed with his head because what kind of evidence would he possibly have to prove that he and Gianni had an intimate relationship? Nathan wanted to laugh in his face and call him a joker but the old man looked too damn serious for it to be a joke. “I want to see the proof,”Nathan told him and watched as the old man brought his phone out, typed a few things, and then passed his phone to
“Oh, this is about occupying your office? That’s the damage I have done? I thought you were going to state all the wrong business decisions that I have made but I bet you have none because the person you took his words from is the same person whose mess I was trying to clean up, I might be a novice but one thing is sure, I do my best and you can ask the people you employed because they can all testify that I did a pretty good job for a supposed novice,”Nathan fired at him. “I don’t care right now, all I want is for you to stay away from my company, I own the company and I make all the decisions pertaining to my company,”Sebastian responded. Nathan decided that there was no point in still engaging the old man, he already picked a side and nothing he was going to say would make him change his mind. “Right, it is your company, do whatever you want with it, I am out of here,”Nathan said the parting words and walked out of the room without a backward glance, he wanted to look for Gian
The next day was a Sunday but that didn’t stop Nathan from making a money move, he took his bath to help freshen his mood, had breakfast with his sisters, and went back to his room, he needed to speak with someone, so he got out his phone and dialed the number of a legal representative that he had spoken to before, he waited for the man to take his call. He got his contact when he met him a couple of weeks ago, at that time, he didn’t think he would need a legal representative soon but now he did and he was thankful he did. Now all he needed was for him to take his call so that they could arrange to meet as he didn’t want to do anything without first having legal backing. “Hello? This is Marcus speaking, who am I on to?”The man asked over the phone. Nathan almost thought he wouldn’t take the call because it was the weekend. “HI, my name is Nathan, we spoke about a week or two ago and I told you that I would reach out to you once I am ready,” Nathan disclosed. “Yeah, Nathan, I rem
“I have been ignoring you all day, can’t you take that as a hint and leave me alone?”Nathan asked. The only reason he took the call was to make sure he wasn’t continuously calling because he noticed that he made a big purchase. “I can’t stop calling you until you agree to come see me,”He told him. Okay, his purchase had nothing to do with why he was calling, for all he knew, the old man had no link to his account. The thought of that gave him some kind of peace. He could buy everything and pay for the things he needed to start his first hotel. “Fine, I will come see you when I have the chance.” He promised. He wasn’t busy but he didn’t want to give the old man a chance to think that he could easily be called upon and would show up. “That’s good to hear,”The old man responded and finally hung up. Nathan dropped the phone and smiled when he remembered what he had achieved that day. He wanted to at least tell someone about it but at the same time, he knew it was too early to let a
