"Well, my day started nice because I was thinking of last night, you in particular. It just took a wrong turn though, as a result of the news getting to me not less than about 30 minutes ago" Jake says to Zara on the other end.He proceeds to narrate the events that took place not too long ago to Zara and it leaves her speechless, bemused, and very much engaged because she detests people who take advantage of others."The nerve of those men, I can't believe they did that and still dared to deny it in front of you and those poor, innocent women. I'm sure they both have families, yet they dare to do this to someone else?" Zara is enraged at what Jake just told her."That's exactly how I felt when I heard of it, and the fact that it was reported before but nothing was said or done to those scumbags, no form of action was taken against them. It fills me with rage to even imagine what those women would have been going through. I'm not even related to them and I'm this pissed just imagine i
Jake and Zara are seen in the restaurant preparing to have dinner together as they earlier planned.They chose to have dinner in an Italian restaurant this time. The waiter comes forward, offers them the menu, and asks if they're ready to order."Umm not yet, you can leave the menu. We'll let you know when we're ready, for now, we'll just have a glass of water each" Zara says first."Instead of the water, bring us your best wine, a glass for both of us, or just bring the bottle" Jake counters while smiling at Zara causing her mouth to hang open."What color sir? Red or white?" The waiter asks Jake."White wine please, thank you," Jake says as the waiter nods before leaving. "Why'd you do that Jake? Why did you ask for wine when we could have just had water and why ask for the whole bottle?" Zara asks Jake, still in shock."I presume you told the waiter to hold with the food because you wanted to say or ask me something and you didn't want to have to share your attention between the f
Jake is in his office, facing the floor-to-ceiling windows opposite his office door, resting even though it is very early in the morning. He seems tired because of the turnout of events at the restaurant where he and Zara alone were supposed to have dinner.He tried calling Zara last night but she didn't pick up and it got him worried. If he was to look at it properly, if he were her he wouldn't pick up either so he just stopped calling her and let her decide to call her the next morning.She was so humiliated yesterday by his brother and Sandra and she took everything without saying a word in her defense.The one thing she asked of him, he couldn't do it for her. She begged him that she didn't want to be involved in any kind of drama at all but the exact opposite happened.He had already tried calling her this morning, it just kept ringing, and she didn't pick up. Maybe she was still mad at him, if she still was, he couldn't blame her.He had already made up his mind to go to the fou
“Could Georgina have been the one who tried to kill Zara? Otherwise, why would she ask after her all of a sudden? I actually thought it was Sandra or Jefferson, I forgot about Georgina and how vile she can be when she wants something.”“I need to talk to Max and find out if he has any leads on Zara's attempted murder. I won't be able to rest easy until all of this is over and Zara is safe and sound, out of danger.”Walking through the hallway on his way to his office absentminded, Jake suddenly stopped at his secretary's desk to ask her a question but she wasn't there which was very unusual for her, she was always at her desk if she wasn't there then maybe she was in his office or downstairs so he decided not to think too much about it.Jake decided to put a call through to Max to ask how Zara was doing since he couldn't go back to the hospital yesterday. Max picked up on the third ring. "Hey Max, how's it going? How is she doing now, any improvements?" Jake asks Max who just sighs d
Jake continued his routine of going to work in the mornings and spending the rest of his day at the hospital in Zara's room talking to her, taking turns with Max and his father to monitor Zara's progress and relieve her family for two days. Today makes it the third dayLaura, Jake's assistant secretary played a very important role in this new routine as she had to draft and adjust his schedule to suit the new routine. Laura always rose to the occasion and this time wasn't an exception.He made a promise to himself to give her a raise for she did most of the work and handled his absence very well.Speaking of the angel, she just came into his office."Sir, I'm here to give the feedback on the assignment you gave to me," Laura says upon her entry."Okay proceed, I'm listening" Jake answers, paying her his full attention."So as per your request, I asked Georgina's direct superior about her recent attitude, if there was any difference, and if she was now compliant and obedient. She said
“What do you mean Sandra?” Jake questioned irritably as he glared at Mike.“I know it's hard to believe, but she was the one who hired those hitmen. I don't know what she had against Zara though.” Mike sighed as he brought out his phone.“I can't believe Sandra would do such a thing,” Jake mumbled in disbelief. Of all people, he never expected Sandra to do this to Zara. From what he knows, Sandra only encountered Zara twice and those times were explanatory since he introduced Zara as his best friend then.“How sure are you about this information?” Jake asked seriously and Mike handed him his phone. “I'm sure. And yeah, she's got an accomplice, they were in cahoot. I was able to tap through her phone and hack her social media account. There's some guy she chats with. His picture is there, have a look.” Mike urged and Jake gulped down nothing as he grabbed the phone from him.As soon as he saw who the man that was in cahoot with Sandra was, his eyes bulged in shock and dismay.” What th
Everyone turned to look at Mr Osborne Robinson and wondered why he stopped the cops from taking Jefferson away. Mrs. Rosalie heaved a sigh as she knew at this point Mr. Osborne wouldn't want to tarnish his reputation further.“But Dad, Jefferson is guilty of everything, he cahooted with this bitch to ruin my wedding!” Jake half yelled and his Father sighed.“Even at that, I wouldn't want Robinson to spend the night in the prison cell. If this matter leaks, don't you know you will get affected? The company and everything you owned would be affected. And nobody would want to partner with us because of our fucked up family!” He spoke the last word in anger as he glared at the embarrassed Jefferson.“Have you seen where your foolishness has gotten you? Because of you, this family is about to lose its reputation. Your scandalous activities to bring your brother down have finally led you.” Mr Osborne Robinson spat out and Jefferson bowed his head low in shame. “Now take a look at you, hand
Georgina didn't know if she was in panic mode or not. She thought she had pushed her just a few steps back, not something that could have landed her on the floor. “Oh, geez what am I supposed to do? This is so much blood!” Georgina panted frantically as she stood up from Agatha's body. She looked around and sighed at the brown Envelope she had seen with her earlier while coming from the hospital. Slowly, she walked towards it with fidgeting hands and grabbed it…Georgina opened the envelope and slowly brought out the paper attached to it. “Oh no!” Georgina exclaimed as she fixed her hands to her mouth, making the paper dropdown. Tears filled her eyes as she glanced at Agatha.“She…she has cancer?” She mumbled these words as tears rolled out of her eyes uncontrollably. Soon after she thought of an idea and phoned the ambulance before escaping from the house without looking back.Yes, she had to run. She had endangered her best friend due to her useless thinking and jealousy. Thanks t
