With so many years of experience in the business world, Jeremy was successfully able to seal a project that promoted a partnership between his company and Mr Lu's company After all processes had been taken care of, the father and son pair left the building and went back into their carIn actual sense, Jeremy was able to steal one of Snyder's corporation's recent blueprints. But, he didn't feel satisfied He fiddled with his fingers as he looked outside the window. His gloomy expression would make one think they were not successful with the business partnership they went for“Father, what's the problem? You don't seem happy with this partnership. You know? If we're successfully able to get Capel Exports to invest in the second project, I can assure you that our company will gain a footing in the line of successful businesses in the country” Ben said as he turned the steering wheel and shifted the gear to the side “I know” Jeremy replied and rested his elbow against the window “Why t
“Yes sir, that's the company that took our place. I haven't heard of them before now. But, when I searched around, I learnt that they are only three months old, but have accomplished things that some companies will do in years” Ian reported“Do you know what their CEO's name is?” Damon asked “Ben Carlie” Ian reported Damon asked for the name just to check if it was someone he knew. If it was someone he knew and who had issues with him, he could say that the person took over his partnership because of the issues between them or with his company. But since it was someone he didn't know, he concluded that Prudent Ventures took over Snyder's corporation's place without any ulterior motives“I hope everything is going well in the company. I might not be able to come tomorrow and the day after” Damon tapped away on his keyboard with focused eyes “But I'll try to do what I can do from here”Damon hated to stay in the hospital, even the smell of the place nauseated him. But he had to stay
“I told you just now. She's a headache. I can't stand another minute with her. All she does is criticise and attack me” Brandon picked back the box of chocolate and continued munching on themDamon glanced at him and smirked before he looked back at his laptop “You want some?” Brandon stretched the box to Damon “I'm good. You can have it all” Damon replied Brandon spent a few more hours with Damon in the hospital before he left. Lucas, Kelvin and even Stephen took up the work of a bodyguard and stayed up all night guarding Damon's room The trio stayed up the entire night that they fell asleep on the hospital waiting chair immediately after the morning sun arose There was no more blood in the bag that passed drip into Damon's body. He pulled the drip off and got down from the bed. He wore the slippers that the hospital provided and went out of the room He took turns as he checked the tag on top of every door until he found the door that had the tag “Psychologist: Dr Fred”Damon t
There was a small bed table in the room. Margaret set it in front of Damon and arranged his meal on them Damon dug in and finished the food in the bowl. It was indeed delicious. He wiped his mouth and said to Margaret “Thank you”Margaret smiled in return. “Lucas! Kelvin! Stephen! Have you figured out how the brakes of Nathan's car stopped working?” Oliver turned to the trio and asked “It was a mechanical issue grandfather, don't stress yourself over it” Damon replied “You three better thank your lucky stars”Oliver pointed at them and glared They stayed a bit longer with Nathan before Oliver fell asleep on the sofa and Damon instructed Margaret to go home and look after things there Later that day, Ambrose visited with get-well cards and fresh flowers of different colours After a little while, she left, especially since Damon was paying her very little attention. The three days that Damon spent in the hospital ended in a wink. The doctors discharged him after confirming that t
“Let go of my hand! I'm your uncle, this is pure disrespect! If you want to know about the boy, you should have asked your mother long before she died. Your mother wouldn't have kept such a thing from you if it wasn't for a good purpose. Don't try to find anything out, and just continue living the way you are. Good for you, you now have money” Carter hijacked his hand away and rushed out of the canteen Damon immediately went to settle his bills and went outside. He looked around but couldn't find Carter anywhere He wasn't sure how, but he knew everything he was experiencing lined up to something. His mind was telling him that something was seriously fishy He went back to his car with a stony face. His uncle's reaction invoked higher curiosity in him. What about that boy could have made his uncle tremble to such extent? He fled even in the face of two million dollars Something was really going on. There were lots of things in his past that he needed clarity about He was about to e
“Mr Nathan, this is the drug I usually give to your grandfather to help stabilise his condition. This helps for a only a few days, so I have to renew it every now and then” The doctor replied as he gently flicked the needle of the syringe “Yes, Nathan. It's my regular injection. Don't fret”. Oliver replied as he rolled up the sleeve of his clothDamon's gaze focused on the yellow substance as he asked “What's its name?”The doctor felt as though a hammer was being hit against his chest when he heard the question, but he maintained his composure and replied skillfully “This is a newly developed antidote that helps to suppress the effect of any type of pressure on the brain. A name hasn't been coined for it yet” Damon raised his right brow and stared at the doctor. The doctor tried to maintain his stance but he couldn't fight against his nervous system. A layer of sweat slid from his forehead down to his chin The doctor wanted to proceed with injecting Oliver, but Damon kicked his ha
She wasn't sure why, but she felt like she had done Damon a lot of wrong She went into the room and stood by the door side Oliver cooperated with the doctor as he did the necessary checkup and took a small portion of his blood “The result of the test will be ready early tomorrow morning. I'll have to come back then”The doctor replied as he placed his instrument back into his bag “Is there no way of getting the results today?” Damon who was already in the room folded his arms across his chest and asked The doctor, Mr Edward, opened his mouth, but no words came out. He didn't know what to respond with. Lucas was a good friend of his and he so much respected him. While he was coming, Lucas told him he was coming into the Snyder's mansionAlthough he wasn't really a social media person, he had still heard of Nathan Snyder. He didn't have to guess much to figure out who Nathan was, especially with the aura that surrounded him He had been working since morning, and he wanted to go hom
Dallen Haves was not too far from city B, so it took Damon less than an hour to arrive there. He drove through the familiar streets and a wave of memories came crashing on him The coconut trees, palm trees and the river were the first things that welcomed people to Dallen Haves. The colour symphony that came from the flowery plants behind the palm trees carried a fresh scent Coupled with the cool morning breeze, there was a calm atmosphere that made anyone feel at home. Dallen Haves was a small town, slightly bigger than a village and smaller than a city. It wasn't developed, thus the roads were bumpy. Damon drove slowly but halted when he got to a particular palm tree. There were two small handprints on it He stared at the handprints as his mind took him back to when he was fifteen. Ambrose was only twelve that time. It was very late at night when they both snuck out of their houses. Most times, it was always Ambrose that instigated Damon in doing such things Ambrose first snuck
