The fact that he chose to stay quiet gave them more room to continue mocking, cursing and taunting him."You useless bastard, I wonder how you managed to survive your debt, you look like you've sold your soul to the devil to get out of there alive." Ian said."Oh sorry, I am glad I disappointed you both." Oliver retorted with a smirk plastered on his face.They continued to belittle him and looked at him disdainfully.Even Patricia didn't have any ounce of love or remorse left for him. Because she felt like seeing Oliver everyday will make her uncomfortable and she didn't want that, she has grown to love this new job of hers, the relationship she was in, and she is not going to let anyone, not even Oliver ruin it for her.Her conscience that is if she had any left, wouldn't let her be because of what she had done.This was the only place she had gotten a well payed job in like forever, and she wasn't about to lose it, or give it all up, simply because her ex will be working in the sa
"It's okay, I just didn't expect there would be uncouth individuals in this fine establishment, you should really consider firing them." Oliver simply said his anger visible on his face."Really sorry, about this, please come with me." "Sure, lead the way." Oliver said.They both left and headed upstairs, leaving the entire company bewildered.'Why did Ashley bow down for an employee and worse, for someone as low classed as that fool?' Ian Harrison thought as he watched them both head up.Shortly after that he stormed off towards his office.Patricia was just as confused as her boyfriend was, she was just thinking of what could have happened that would make Ashley bow down and disgraced them in front of her ex, she felt like her life was hanging by a thread.The way Ashley had cut her off could mean her time in the company could be short-lived.****"Sir Oliver, welcome to D.Y Corporation..." Ashley humbly said."Thanks Ashley, I see you are yet to be prepped as to why I came in as a
"Hey girl." Patricia greeted as she sat down on the sofa pouting."Okay what's wrong? Why the long face, did Ian do something he shouldn't have?" Jennifer asked waiting for an explanation."Well... the thing is, I was supposed to go over to his place tonight but instead he drove me here without prior notice." Patricia said now upset."That doesn't sound like Ian, did anything happen at work? He might just be having a bad day, from what I can see he likes you." Jenifer said reassuring her friend."I know, we both had a bad day, it is so unbelievable, I still can't put my finger on it. I mean come on, why would he come there of all places?" Patricia asked rhetorically and just kept talking, Jenifer was getting tired of listening to her that she chimed in..."Are you going to say something or would you prefer to just ramble on?""It's Oliver...""*Rolls her eyes* what about him? Are you still in love with him?" Jenifer chimes in yet again, this time getting disgusted, she hates hearing t
Oliver did his best to forget about everything negative happening around him and focused on learning the ropes as fast as he could.In just two weeks he got the hang of it all, but then he feels the need to do something that could make him worthy of running the company, although he doesn't need to prove anything to anyone, but he felt he has to, least of all to himself and also for late Dorian Walter.So during the weekend, since he was in charge of the financial department of his company he felt the need to make sure the company's fund got doubled, and he did.However, while he was going through this he found something quite interesting in there, it was of course unnoticeable by mere computer operators but since he was overly good with computers one could say he was a guru, he was able to find it."Haha... got you, you will so pay for this and every other thing soon enough." He muttered as he smiles.While he was at it, Mrs Carlson walked into his study with a cup of coffee.She smil
Oliver Lane sent a text to Ian Harrison's phone boldly written:'I KNOW ALL OF YOUR DARKEST SECRETS'Even though he is yet to take over the company, he wants to torture Ian and make him lose his composure and also to make sure he makes a mistake.Ian whose phone was on his desk heard it's beep and took it up, he saw a text from an unknown number.Reading the context of the message, anxiety gripped him. His heart began beating fast in his chest. He has done many things in the past which he never wants to relive but seeing this, he couldn't fathom who had sent it, what they know about him and why they would want to send this just to threaten him, he just couldn't figure it out. It was too much for him to take in, process and decipher, his head was spinning nonstop.'Oh no who could this be? What do I do? I just know the things I do, will be the death of me someday. Who could have sent it, who could have sent this, what do they know?' He thought.He was so frantic, to the point that whe
She doesn't know how to feel about the image before her, under normal circumstances, she wasn't supposed to be affected but somehow she is and she cursed herself for it.Ashley and Oliver went out to a restaurant and ordered for a huge meal.They ate to their fill and came back to the company and went on with their jobs.Harrison was down all day so he wasn't in the mood to fight with Oliver.After closing hours, Ian and Patricia went home."What the hell happened to you earlier today? You practically shunned me away." Patricia blurted out, trying to get out the anger she has suppressed all day back at the company."I am sorry okay, I was not feeling too good, couldn't think straight earlier." Ian simply retorted.'Keep your cool don't provoke him, he is your man, if you cross boundaries and he gets upset with you and breaks up with you, you'll be homeless, jobless and broke. Calm yourself down.' Patricia thought and then walked to him gently."What's wrong baby?" She asked as lovingl
"Turn yourself in at the next board meeting as well as your accomplices." Oliver chimes in bluntly."Anything but that." Ian pleaded."That's what I want you to do, come clean. Own up to your mistakes like a man." Oliver stated sternly."Please Oliver, I beg you, I can't go down like this, I will give back Patricia to you, I know you still love her." Ian conveyed."I don't need someone who doesn't value me, so no thanks... you can have her for all I care. I will give you some time to make your decisions. You have till this weekend to decide." Oliver said and walked away.Ian couldn't take it anymore, he had a feeling that this would happen, and if he turns himself in that means he will lose his current job and that is what he dreads more than anything in the world.He found this job so as to become a better version of himself, in the past he was someone people looked down on and it hunts him like a ghost in the night. So having this job was redemption for him, and the thoughts of him
Oliver was beyond irritated seeing her up close, he recalled the humiliation she had subjected him to.This was someone he went out of his way for but she left him, and now she is here to try to talk to him to leave her so called new boyfriend alone.'This is ridiculous, what does she think she is doing? I can't take this any more.' Oliver thought."Good morning Oli." She said but Oliver quickly shunned,"It's Oliver, you've lost the right to call me that.""Come on you don't have to yell, okay fine, I am sorry for how I treated you when you arrived at the company, I was just so surprised to see you here.""Why so? I have a right to work and get employed too in a company, don't I?" Oliver asked"Yes, yes you do, my bad okay, that's why I am apologizing." Patricia said."You've done that, you can leave now." Oliver uttered."I actually came here for something else.""Okay then, why are you here right now? Wait, does it by any chance have to do with you asking me to turn a blind eye to
