I actually feel hundred percent confident”.He replied her.“Correct me if I am wrong, Master. If I know you, you are one person who doesn’t leave things to chance.

She thought to herself.Her phone rang. She took a look at the screen and it was Pedro calling her. “Why is this bastard calling? I’m sure he wants to make mockery of me. If not that, why else will he be calling me?” She said to herself.“Yes? What do you want from me now?”She said to Pedro, after she had picked up the phone.“Easy now. Just calling in to let you know, the court session is about to start”. Pedro replied her.“And you think I do not know that?” She asked him.“Well, you might have fooled me there. It’s five minutes to 10AM and you are not even here yet. How would one believe that, you have not forgotten about the hearing for today?” Replied Pedro. “Well, I know it is today. Quit being a jerk

But do tell me, please”.She replied Alex. “These are records from our sub-company, which Don Michaelson was head of operations. You wouldn’t believe the things that are in here”. He said to Roseline. “We have seen the ledgers, inventories and other records showing the illegal activities of Don Michaelson, in that company. I managed to get them myself, which we made copies and handed over to the police, to aid their investigations. I am sure this should be one of such records, you have there”. Rosel

Pedro said to them, after acknowledging and reciprocating their greetings. “We tried calling you an hour ago, sir, but it was not going through. We suspect bad network reception. After we closed from the chambers, we thought we come see you, before heading home”. Hernandez replied Pedro.“Okay? Out with it then. What brings you here this evening?” Pedro asked. “We have the upper hand now, Sir. Your ex-wife, Lisa, did not show up in court, at the first hearing. I reckon she will probably not show up again”.

Roseline later arrived home from the company, after she finished with the workers there. “Roseline, you are back”.Pedro said to Roseline, after he turned back to see who it was, that had just come into the house, hearing the door open, while he was watching television in the sitting room.“Yes, master”.She said to him. She was exhausted, due to the numerous amount of workers, that she discussed and engaged with. “How did it go with the workers? Were you able to get the information we need?”.Pedro asked her.“It was a tedious process, Master. I spoke with at least seventeen workers, and it turns out that, two amongst our employees there, were his stooges”.Roseline replied him.“Can you imagine the insolence of this man? He even converted employees of the company to his minions”. Pedro said to her, slightly annoyed.“Master, you do not need to worry your head much about this whole situation. The other workers during the course of my discussions with them, all pointed at the other

Josephine reciprocated her niece’s greeting.“Yes auntie. I had to rush down here, because I know you must be very tired, from watching over Sarah, through yesterday till this morning”. Lisa said to her auntie, Josephine. “That’s thoughtful of you, my darling. I am actually very exhausted. I had to get some snacks from the hospital’s cafeteria to eat as dinner, to avoid going through the night on an empty stomach”. Josephine said to her.“So sorry about that.

“It’s morning already?”Lisa said, as she opened her eyes. It was the next morning already and she had just woken up. “Morata wake up, it’s morning already. I’m sure you are going to go to work today”. She said to Morata, tapping him on his back, as he was sleeping on his chest. She tapped him till he sluggishly woke up. “Hmmm. Is it morning already? We just slept not long agooo”.He said, groaning. He didn’t realize they had both slept off last night, and it was morning already the next day. “Yes, it is morning. I have to go get ready and leave for the hospital, to see my sister, Sarah. My auntie should be exhausted by now and I have to be there, to take over the watch of Sarah, from her, while she goes home to take care of herself”.She said to Morata.“Okay my damsel. Will I be seeing you later today?” He asked her. “I am not sure. I’ve got things to do during the day. Maybe some other time”.

“Hello cousin, been a while…………”Morata picked up his phone, immediately he got out of the shower. It was ringing already, before he came out to his room. He replied the person and listened. “You thought you pay me a visit?………”He asked the person at the other end of the phone and listened, while the person replied. “Of course. Please, do come through to the house. I will be expecting you. It’s been a while”. He continued and finally ended the conversation over the phone. He didn’t bother to put on much, since he and Lisa had plans of having sex later on. He wore a white striped sweatshirt and shorts and went down stairs to join Lisa in the sitting-room. “Hey you, what took you so long? Was the shower that good?”.Lisa asked Morata, looking up at him, smiling, as he made his way down the stairs to the sitting-room, to sit with her. “Hehehe. Did you miss me that much?”Morata replied her, laughing softly. “Oh yes, I did miss you. I had even begin to think you had forgotten me an

Step right in, he just arrived home even”.Morata’s gateman said to Lisa, at the gate.She had just arrived there coincidentally at the same time Morata got back home and was coming out of his car.

If it isn’t the damsel herself”.Morata said in excitement, seeing Lisa, who had just walked into his compound. “Good evening Morata, how was your day?”Lisa greeted him and said to him, smiling at him. She walked to him, placed her hand on his shoulder, rubbing it mildly. “My day was good. Had these meeting with some potential clients, who came into the country from Italy, yesterday, to meet with me for business”. He replied her. “That’s nice. I see you, Mr. Big business mogul”.

“Helppppp. Somebody, anybody. Ah! Uh! Please, I am too old for this”. Don Michaelson was crying out for help. He was being beaten up by the two men assigned to his prison cell. They had started beating him up again, going at it for five minutes. “Help!”. He exclaimed again.“Shut up! No one is coming. You are stuck in here with us and no one is coming to help you”. One of the men said to him, as he kicks his stomach, while Michaelson was on the floor, struggling with his stomach and holding it, because of the pain, they had inflicted on him. “Hey you, Michaelson, better prepare your mind ready for a court appearance next week. Hehehe. You will be going to jail real soon”. Detective Harry said to him, laughing after he came to his cell, to say to him. Roseline had called the detective earlier, to pass the message from Pedro, to him.“Detective, I know you see what these men are doing to me.

Lisa returned to the hospital, to join her auntie, Josephine, after she had taken care of herself at home. “Auntie, how’s my sister doing?”She asked Josephine, immediately she came into Sarah’s room.“She’s doing fine, according to the nurses. The doctor was here an hour ago, to check her vitals, while one of the nurses came to check her drip line, infused some medicines through the line and the other came to help me clean her up”. Her auntie, Josephine replied. “That’s good auntie. I’m very happy her treatment and care wasn’t stopped, courtesy of Morata”. Lisa said, exhaling relief. “Speaking of Morata, remember to be over his place, later this evening. It’s 2PM already. Make sure you are there”.

Pedro phone rings. He was still in bed, but got woken up by the phone’s ringing. He picked it up,“Yea?”.He was listening to the person at the other end of the line. The person kept talking.“Thank you. But no, I do not want that”. He replied to the person, on the phone. The person continued, while Pedro listened. After few minutes, he replied,“I do understand, but like I said before, I do not want it to go down that way. Thank you”.
