The doctor turned off the TV as he, jamoel and susan watched footage of the CCTV.“No! father, no!” Susan screamed in tears.Jamole grabbed Susan to his chest and petted her; she was sobbing hugely while Jamole endlessly failed to quell her.Jamole nagged, “But doctor, how did Mcdonald get into the private ward that was placed on retriction? I thought we gave orders that no visitor should be allowed…The doctor, who was disappointed in his staff, said calmly “Apologies, Jamole.Mcdonald bribed his way through. I have sacked the hospital’s secretary that compromised…” the doctor snorted, “I believe that mcdoanld has achieved what he came for..”“What could that be doctor if not to kill my father-in-law?” Jamole raised his gaze and clenched his teeth. There came the striking voice of the doctor, “We have critical condition at her hand, Jamole and if nothing is done, we may lose Swan Pablo..”Susan said through sobbing, “Mcdonald hmm,” she hummed in fury and quried “But doctor what could
When Jamole went to the account department to make payment for Swan’s medical bills, he met a quite handful of people who had also come to pay medical bills for their sick ones.Soon, the people formed a long queue and Jamole didn’t have the patience to join the queue. The doctor had mentioned it to him that there was urgent need to make the payment so that treatment could commence quickly.An idea struck him in the head and he went to the person standing in front.“Please, I have an urgent need. My father-in-law needs to be attended to quickly. Can you let me go ahead of you…..”“What the hell!” the chubby woman blurted out, “You dirty looking thing has the guts to instruct me? Please join the queue and never bother me again!”Jamole sucked a breath of hope and snorted before seeing the smiling face of a teenager behind the chubby. He only believed the teenager would be considerate.“Hi friend, please can I go ahead of you. I have an urgent need. My father-in-law needs an urgent medi
The murmuring in the crowd had begun to roar so nosily that the doctor had to leave Jamole with the accountant and went to control them.The doctor frowned at Jamole “What is happening, young man? I thought you said you had enough money on that card,” he said at a breath.At the time Jamole’s face had gone crimson, and it would take a stronger temperance not to shed tears.“Why would I lie about it, doctor? Don’t you know who I am? Definitely something is wrong somewhere. I have enough money on the card. How can my account be blocked?”The accountant had already tried it for what seemed to be the hundredth time and the POS machine kept saying; Card blocked. Contact Issuer.“Hey I am tired of this shit!” The accountant yelled at Jamole not minding whether the doctor was there or not. “There is no money on this card!” she beamed and tossed the card at Jamole.Jamole sniffed and fought off tears. He bent over and picked up the card.Gazing upon the card, he was forced to say, “No, it is
Jade saw Andre prancing forward in the company of his hefty-looking security officers and he stopped to greet him.Just like other staff, Jade had accepted his fate; since he would still want to be working at Swan, he had zeroed his mind to humble himself and be loyal to Andre.To Jade, there would never be another break through for the anonymous heir and the entire Pablo’s. Zhang Meng had come to stay and this was the destiny of Swan Group.And because Swan Group was the most valuable company in Antipolo, where anyone would work and earn well, Jade wouldn’t want to incure the wrath of Andre or Zhang, which could terminate his job.Keep it safe; that was the personal decision he took and he wished Jamole would do same and swallow his pride.“Greetings boss,” Jade greeted once Andre surged closer. Tossing his head proudly,Andre replied, “Jade, how are you doing?”Jade bowed and smiled timidly, “I am good, boss. I must commend you look cute today,” he intoned, before his gaze scanned A
When Jamole walked into the villa and was welcomed by tranguility, he was a bit troubled over the whereabout of Susan.As usual he thought she had hit the club to get tipsy after their bickering at the hospital, but with her Lamborghini still parked outside, he knew she was back to the villa. She had searched for her virtually in all the rooms and didn’t see; later he saw her in the pent house, where she gazed upon the photo of Swan Pablo.Jamole knew with the raging storm, she needed some time alone. And that was why she came to the pent house. But he needed to break the horrible news to her and how he got the disgrace of his life at the hospital earlier today.“Been searching for you all over,” Jamole said coldly, standing behind her to stare at the photo of Swan Pablo, “I guess you need some privacy.”Susan sniffed heaily, “I will be much appreciative if you don’t get it ruined,” she replied quietly and still gazed on the photo, not really interested in what ever news jamole came w
Jamole’s eyes squinted. “Did you just slap me?” Jamole asked, his eyes dimmed at his offender.“And I will do it again, perhaps it will correct your foolishness! Your failure has stolen everything from us! Our legacy, integrity, fortune, life, everything we have ever worked for have gone! My dad is on the verge of dying! What kind of son-in law-are !” she yelled.Jamole had been fighting off tears and he wouldn’t want to let those tears trickle down now because he had decided to work out his fate and not cry.“you are always fond of giving up on me each time I am down but once I hit the jack pot you become sweet-tongue. Why are you always doing this? Do you think I am the cause of my misfortune?” Jamole asked gently.Although Susan still kept at her yelling, Jamole decided to answer her coldly without raising his voice; he still heald her in high esteem.“Hey, namby-pamby,” she cursed, “I warned you. If this got to do with the company alone, trust me, I wouldn’t cork an eye brow, aft
Susan wasn’t into this; she wasn’t trained by Swan Pablo to sell her propertt dung difficult times. But she had to take the bull by the horn. Swan Pablo’s medical bills were at stake. The only thing that came to mind when it came to selling properties was her diamond stiletto.The very one Roger gifted her.“Please, sir, this is cross diamond stiletho and not your regular shoe. I can only sell it for ten point five million dollars,” Susan nagged.The boutique owner, a thick Mexican glared at the diamond shoe with dismal eyes.“Ma, am, this is New Era Boutique and we know quality shoes when we see one. He shook his head, “This is not one of it, so if you can sell it for half a million dollars I am in…”“Half a million dollars?” Susan snapped and rolled her eyes at the man, “I guess you don’t know the quality of this shoe. This is Gross Diamond.” She raised the pair, “It has ten carrat diamonds on its sole…”“That doesn’t matter. Whether it has ten carat or twenty carat diamond, I just w
To humanity, failure and unpredented setback were the worst of nightmares. And this was the fate of Jamole. This time he was at the balcony staring at the moon light and at another time he was in the bedroom, staring at the clock and counting hours to the inaugaural ceremony of Zhnag Meng as the new CEO of Swan Group.Tonight, was the Eve of the ceremenoy and he could barely catch sleep. Susan was yet to return home and although he had tried to phone her, he sensed she was some where in the club whiling away time and drinking herself to stupor just to forget the impending trauma of losing their company.“Is this how the might falls?” Jamole said within himself and stroked his hair confsudely, “How can I lose a company that was put in my care? How can an egale suddenly become a duck? Is that possible?”His thought was interrupted by the buzzing of a car which just stopped in front of their house. It was a taxi and seeing the driver alight to aid the passenger with a wheelchair, he knew
