“You just mentioned the auditor has the backing of the heir. Why don’t you charm the auditor and get him to reveal the heir to you. This is the only time you can charm the heir to your heart.”Stella stood, gazing thoughtfully in the space as those words of Zara resounded in her mind. Desperation wasn’t a perfect description for what had possessed her. If it would take charming the editor with her body juts to make sure he revealed the identity of the heir to her, she was going to do it.She had made greater sacrifices in the past and this was not going to be a different ball game.“I am pained and hurt,” she mumbled within herself, as she stared into the mirror,“Men of class and of low standard have mocked me and broken my heart,” she chuckled, “I must know who the heir is. I will pay whatever price it will cost and when I finally know him, he shall be mine,” she said and let a threatening chuckle.“Jamole thinks I shattered because Roger left me, well I am going to prove to him that
“Nine million dollars to be repaid in five years with twenty percent interest. Should you fail to meet the terms and conditions, your house and the cars will be confiscated. Am I understood? Now sign the spaces with asterisks.”That was the voice of the accountant to Roger, who had come to access a loan to buy Susan the diamond high heels. He never knew a day would come in his life when he would borrow to please a woman.“Congratulations, Mr. Roger James,” the accountant finally said to him once he was done signing the necessary spaces.She took out a slip and handed over to him, “This is a cheque for nine million dollars. You have not accessed loan from us so we don’t know history of your investment. But we hope you are going to invest wisely.”With mountains of smile standing on his face, Roger looked up from the cheque and let a remarkable chuckle“Oh thank you very much for making this possible. I am going to invest wisely, even before five years I will get my return on investment
“I can’t believe I am hanging out with a man after my previous heartbreak. Perhaps knowing you could fix my heart,” Stella said, sitting opposite Charles at the Spanish café.Charles corked a smile. A few hours ago Stella had hounded him about the true identity of the anonymous heir and he hoped the reason she earnestly wanted to date him wasn’t because of her interest in knowing the anonymous heir.“Virtually everyone faces heartbreak. I guess your ability to heal matters most. Regrettably all the women I dated were as a result of office romance.”“Office romance?” Stella beamed and Roger came to mind. One thing she wasn’t going to discuss with Charles was her romance with Roger, “Well office romance is not the reason for heartbreak. I think it is based on the individuals involved. All the men I dated were gold diggers.”“And all the women I dated were bitches,” Charles mimicked her.They burst into a cracking laughter and struggled with breath.“I guess you are as much humorous as I
When Stella thought she was going to embrace happiness after Charles promised to reveal the heir’s identity to her , a disaster struck.Roger and Susan were about to rip her heart apart again with their trending romance.She was driving home when her phone beeped with a message. With curiosity hanging in her eyes, she was expecting tons of messages from Charles whom she perceived must have sent her message about who the heir was.This was the only message she was expecting at the time and nothing more.She was eager to check the message that just came on her phone; not even the busy road could stop her from checking it. With one hand she steered the wheel, and with the other hand she surfed through her phone.Promptly the wheels on her car screeched across the road as she stepped on the break. Her car came to a screeching halt. Blood drained from her face as she saw the image of Susan displaying Gross Diamond Stiletto on social media.She winked severally and rubbed her eyes to be
They all watched keenly as Jamole made purchase of a unique kind of wine. The fact was that Jamole never anticipated they were chilling at the café. And even now he was struggling inwards to see if he could hide any form of suspicion.He was returning to the villa when he thought about replacing his whiskey with another wine which was auctioned at the beverage house few days ago. Jamole had watched the auction on TV and then decided he would purchase it for the toast he planned to have with his father in law.His meeting Stella and her friends was coincidental.With the corner of his eyes he often stole a glance at them to see if they were staring at him.Regardless, Jamole knew they would be discussing him now, so the moment they laughed he perceived they were making jest of him.He had made payment for the wine, even the bartender was shocked when Jamole made a transfer of a whopping $ 1 million for Romanee Conti 1945.That very wine had been in the shelf for over six months without
Charles had phoned Stella to meet him at room 101, Century Hotel. And she showed up, though a little bit disguised as a man just to keep preying eyes away. She wished she could turn down Charles’ desire to have her in bed, but for her quest of knowing the identity of the anonymous heir.Her mind was made up to know the heir and woo him; she couldn’t wait to get hooked up with him.This would be her little secret; no one would know she was sleeping with the new auditor just to get a first hand information about the identity of the anonymous heir.She had never been desperate; but it was worth it; she only thought it was worth it because she had too many men she needed to teach a lesson; Roger James and her ex-husband Jamole.She only thought she was on the right path to vengeance, but little did she know that Jamole was more ruthless and a silent killer.A knock came on the door and Charles welcomed her into the suite. She met him under the duvet in bed, all ready for the rump.Unknown
“Her name is Stella Pitcher,” Charles intoned once he dropped the photo on the table before his cousin, Anderson, “She is coming to meet you. She will be mad over you. She will be willing to give you her spirit soul and body,”Anderson cleared his throat and took the photo of Stella , “What a pretty damsel. Why would she be mad over me? We don’t know each other and I don’t think such a classic lady would want a pauper like me…”Charles flipped open his briefcase and slammed a wad of dollars on the table, followed by a car key and other bunch of keys.“My boss Jamole Cadry is willing to hire you for the job if only you will deliver. You will have all of this to boost your status as a rich heir to Swan Group.”Anderson widened his gaze at him. “Impersonation? But Jamole Cadry is the heir; that I know very well. Why would he want me to impersonate him?”Charles lit a cigar. “Anderson. Not only are you my cousin, but I have known you as a smart ass. Beside you told me you can do the job.”
Jamole had a quiet time in the pent house. He was relaxed to a table of Whiskey Sour but more remarkably was the executed master plan for Swan Airline.“I have everything in place now except a budget for salary. How do I pay the workers?” he contemplated within himself, staring dimly at the master plan.A thought hit him in the head and he rebuked it. For the second time the thought came again. It was an idea to go and seek the interest of Zhang perhaps since he was into automobiles, he would be interested to invest in Swan Airline.But as usual if he would visit Zhang he would go as a marketer.“I can’t run an airline without hiring labor and if I hire labor, I will pay the staff salary. If only Zhang will not be an ass and invest in this airline,” he contemplated in his mind and gulped his drink.The next day Jamole rode his scooter to Zhang Group where he met a band of hostile security that wouldn’t let him go in.”“You again?” one of the securities groaned, pointing irritatingly at
