Thoughts of how the manager ditched him were still fresh in his heart. But he was helpless, since he had nobody to help him out.He finally caught the attention of Ethan Geftan."Hey, Ethan," he said, stretching out his hand to shake him, but Ethan didn't take it.Ethan stared at him with a bewildered look on his face.Marcel caught the attention of people when he kneeled down to beg Ethan Geftan Nathan to beg for forgiveness for all he had done. The whole gaze of everyone was so fixed on Ethan and Marcel."Marcel said he was sorry about everything that happened and said he wished they could settle this man on man". But Ethan Geftan was a hard shell to crack; he wasn't moved by all those words that came out of Marcel's mouth."Ethan, on the other hand, had already vowed to take revenge on Marcel. Firstly, for taking away his wife"."Secondly, for telling the security to beat him up and for humiliating him in front of everyone at his engagement party.Ethan wasn't going to give it to
Back in school, there was this girl called 'Vivian'. She was Marcel's lover, but obviously Marcel wasn't the kind of guy who could be with only one lady.Vivian truly loved him so much. Marcel was actually a cute guy—tall, beard gang, chiseled abs. He was every girl's dream back then in school. This was why he could obviously take Ethan's wife."Vivian did all she could to keep Marcel and to make him stop all the things he was doing, but he refused.He had a gang of friends who were just like him."They were birds of a feather who flocked together'."He almost got rusticated from school because of what his friends did.They went to a party one day. It was organized by a student at the same school and level. They were all drunk, and his friends Daniel and Curry raped these girls named Tems and Mercy."The girls parents were influential people."The news got to the school authority. The authorities didn't seem to take it likely with them either; his friends got rusticated from school, b
Vivian's dad stood by the door, walked in, and went to meet Vivian, where she was with her baby lying on her chest.They were all amazed at their sight and were engulfed in shock. The room became silent for a while.It didn't take a while before Darwin came in, like it was all planned.Who could have told Darwin? Vivian's mom was forced to ask.Darwin looked stylishly at his aunt, but his mom caught his sight and knew his aunt did.She was happy to see him excited about Vivian's baby while they were teasing Darwin. Vivian's dad stood up too."Vivian, I am sorry ", is an underestimate of my mistakes. Only your time and your willingness can make you forgive me, please.I regret throwing you out to the wind, and I pray that the wind blows it back in my direction. And never let it slip away if that ever happens.I want to apologize for my actions and how I treated you."Dad I am sorry. I had no intention of hurting you, but it happened, dad. Please, please forgive. ''. I did not mean for
"It was the toughest season for the family". All that was left in their hearts was sorrow, pain, and agony."It was time for Elina to be buried"."After the burial, Vivian, who was always crying like the world was going to come to an end, cried her balls out, but no amount of tears could bring baby Elina back"."Weeks went by, and she was still broken".Her mom and dad spoke to her.Vivian decided to move on with her life.It took a while for Vivian to move on.She finally got on her feet and decided to move on with her life.Vivian, who is a graduate, took out her credentials and went out to look for a job.It seemed like she wanted a fresh start.Vivian went to three different companies,Fortunately, they all called her and offered her a job at three different companies. The choice was left for her to make now.She weighed the offer before making her choice.She chose the real estate company, and she was made the manager of the company.It was her academic field of study; she had a
"Kelvin didn't show up".I collapsed on the spot. I was taken to the hospital in an ambulance.When I regained consciousness,I called Kelvin, but I couldn't reach him; it seemed like he had already blocked me or changed his mobile number.I checked all his social accounts, but they were disabled.When I got out of the hospitalI went to Kelvin's mom to give her back the jewelry she gave me before the wedding.She was also dazed at what had happened; she also reached out to Kelvin, but it was still the same.I was so broken.I broke into pieces.Every single day that went by was horrible as hell to me.I wish it was all a dream.I gradually began to move on. It was a rough process. But I made up my mind to move past it, and I did.It has been two years since it happened.Vivian was so sorry for Keren.She didn't know what Karen had gone through or what she also went through.Vivian hugged her so tight."Hey, babe's, let's get going".It was already running late.They stood up and walk
While they were jogging, Henry could not help but stare at Vivian like he had seen an angel.He decided to talk to her.Hey Vivian, how are you? He asked. Vivian responded to him, so they started talking while they were both jogging.Vivian got to the point where she could not continue jogging.They had to walk the remaining route back home. They spoke for a long time while walking back home. Although it was so much fun for the both of them, Vivian had not had so much fun in a long time.Henry made sure he dropped her off at her apartment before going to his friend's house.He did pass the night at Calvin's house.When Henry got home, after taking his shower, he called Vivian to know if she'd be okay. Vivian picked up his call, and they had a lengthy conversation over the phone.It seemed like Vivian was beginning to like Henry.Vivian got to the office the next day. She told Keren everything that happened between her and Henry yesterday.Keren was so surprised because she had not se
"He wanted to engage Vivian".He planned everything out; Vivian wasn't aware of it.She was sitting in her office when the company's gateman brought a flower bouquet to her office.He said the dispatch rider gave it to him to give to Miss Vivians.The gateman handed it to Vivian and left.There was a short note inside the flower bouquet that said',"You make me forget how to breathe. Just the thought of you right now makes my heart soar. I love you more than I did yesterday, but not more than I will tomorrow. Anonymous.."She wondered who the flowers came from".She was about to stand up from her seat when the gateman came back again to tell her that her attention was needed at the reception.She had to follow him immediately because she didn't have any appointments to see anyone. And if anyone wanted to see her, Keren, her secretary, would definitely let her know."She got to the reception". But what she saw got her even more baffled. The gateman said her attention was needed at the
"When I told my parents, they were so unhappy about it"."My father cursed me the day I was born; he said I was disgraceful to him after all he had done to raise me up and train me through the university; this is how I could pay him in return"."He threw me out of the house; my mom tried to beg him to forgive me, but he threatened to throw her out alongside me". "My mom told me to go and stay with my aunt"."I went to my aunt's place" and "she took care of me up until the day I gave birth to my child"."After I gave birth to my daughter," my dad came to the hospital to apologize to me; my mom and aunt were so surprised; my younger brother Darwin also came; he was in school when my aunt told him that I had already given birth; I was so happy when I saw him"."We all went back home that day "."She got called by my father ". Her name was Elina, which meant "bright light."Motherhood has begun for me". Whenever I saw Elina, she gave me hope and strength."On a Sunday evening, I left Elin
Mr. Greftan was admitted to the hospital and placed on bed rest by the doctor. He had a minor heart attack and the doctor warned that it might reoccur if Mr. Greftan wasn't resting well. Keren was still not at work, and Ethan couldn't find her document. He searched all his files but they were nowhere to be found. He was sure he left it in his office. He was worried about Keren but there was no way to reach her. It had been two weeks since the incident and Keren was not yet at work. He thought it was because they made out that was why she was shy about resuming and it broke him when he couldn't find her credentials so he could locate her house address. Worst of all, he didn't have her picture saved on his phone; the only picture he had of her was missing too, and he couldn't explain how Keren’s document mysteriously disappeared from his office. Ethan turned on the CCTV camera to see if Eli was the one who took Keren’s file but he didn't see anything out of the ordinary; all he could

“Impressive!! This is by far the best project you have come up with; I cannot believe it! How did you get this idea?“You see, grandpa, I am not the bad egg after all; I have been breaking my back working on something that would make you and dad proud.“I cannot wait to show Ethan this project; I am sure he will be so proud of you.Eli collected the documents from his grandfather’s hand; he did it in such a way that it showed that he was disgusted with what his grandfather said.“What? What is wrong? Do you want to yank your hand off? Why did you collect your document like that? Did I say something wrong?"Yes, grandfather, you do not even trust me enough; I did all of this myself and now you want to show Ethan for approval.“I wasn't going to show him for approval; I just wanted him to know what you were working on; surely he would be so excited too. “Why do you always do this, grandpa? Do you need validation from Ethan before approving my project? You all complain that I don't do a
“Irish! I thought you said she wouldn't be here!“I know Vivian, but Keren lives here; you both cannot be fighting forever; I need you both to settle your differences. “If not for the fact that we are sisters, I would have slapped you really hard! I do not have time for this nonsense! “But Vivian, Irish is right; you cannot be like this forever; you need to forgive me and let us move on.“You killed them! I will never forget that you made me a widow! I want nothing to do with you; excuse me, I am out of her.Vivian left the house, ignoring Irish and Keren, who were calling out her name. All the excitement on Keren’s face faded away. She fell to the couch and let out a loud sigh of relief. Irish sat beside her. They were both silent for a few minutes before Irish decided to break the silence.“You do not have to think too much about it; she will come around; she is still traumatised, and she told me she started therapy; she will come around soon."It has been years; I miss my best fri
“Take me home. That was the last thing Ethan said before he was unconscious. Keren had to call for the help of the receptionist so they could carry Ethan to the car. By the time they got downstairs, the driver was already in his seat, waiting to move. They managed to put Ethan into the car, the receptionist went back to her work station and everyone was worried, wondering what was happening to their boss. They thought he fainted but the receptionist had to tell them that the boss was under a lot of stress and he needed rest. Ethan was in the back seat with Keren; he was sleeping deep. Keren couldn't get her eyes off him; she wished she could touch his hair so she could do that. Tears rolled down her face when she thought about her late fiance. She looked outside the window so no one would see her crying. Shortly after, they got to the mansion and Keren was left in amazement. She couldn't believe her eyes; she couldn't believe the edifice standing tall in front of her. When the driv
Keren was so shy, she used to wish the ground would open and swallow her. Ethan was still fast asleep; he was oblivious that his grandfather was in the room. “You must be Keren, right?Keren tried to speak but she was stuttering and she struggled to compose herself."Yes, I am, sir.“Why is Ethan fast asleep by this time?“He is drunk, sir; he drank too much. “I see. Follow me.“Sir?“You heard me; follow me. Ethan’s grandfather left the room and Keren jumped off the bed and rushed to Ethan’s closet to wear something casual. She wore a white collar shirt and joggers. When she was done, she headed downstairs to meet Mr. Geftan. “Right on time, join me.Mr. Geftan poured Keren a glass of freshly pressed juice; he pressed it himself. It was a mixture of pineapple, watermelon and a little ginger. “This is so lovely, sir; I have never tasted a better fruit juice.“So tell me, what is it like working with Ethan?“I have no idea, sir. I only resumed today. I hoped I was going to have a bli
How can I repay you for your kindness sir?“You do not have to pay me, just go home and start something beautiful and profitable for you and your son. Your son deserves something better.“Who are you sir?Bal’s father said amidst tears, he couldn't control the tears that rolled down his face, he wanted to kneel to appreciate Ethan but Ethan stopped him mid air.“You do not have to do that, just consider me your angel, now please go get something good to eat.“Thank you uncle, my dad is really happy. Bal and his father left the park and Ethan watched how joyous they looked until they faded out of sight, he was truly happy for them… he was fulfilled when he saw the smile on their faces, and at that moment he was convinced that everything happened for a reason, if Eli had not crashed his car, he wouldn't have met Bal. He walked back to the hospital ward and when he got there he was informed that Eli was out of coma. He wasn't sure if he was happy about the news or not but he had to go
“I am not going to calm down, grandfather!! Did you see what he did to my car? That car was badly damaged—damaged beyond repair!! “Stop stressing over material things; your insurance company can take care of the damages.“They would if I were the one driving the car, but I am not and Eli is moving around with an expired driver’s license!" He better stay in that coma, because I will send him back there if he comes back to this house! How dare he take my car without my permission!!! He left his luxurious cars and took mine. I am starting to think that he crashed my car on purpose. “ Don't be ridiculous. I understand you are upset but do you think Eli would risk his life just to crash your car and get back at you? You should be praying for his recovery, not this.“God forbid!! I better waste my time on important things than pray for that rebellious soul. Eli is a lost cause.“You are the older one, Ethan. I know Eli is not the best but do you want us to throw him away? Your father doesn
“Hahah!! I told you I was going to get to you, didn't i? Eli was smiling at the screenshot he took; he was the happiest soul that night. He was one step away from bringing Ethan down and he was very excited. He took out his phone and called Marcel.“Hello, where are you?“I am resting at my loudspeaker.“Meet me at the bar.“At the bar? By this time of the night? Isn't it late already?“I told you never to oppose me again; remember, I am paying for that room. I can kick you out anytime, so please do as I say or else I will throw you out.“I will be there in 20 minutes.“Be there in 15.“Eli ended the call and tossed his phone on the bed and he made his way to his closet to change into something casual for the night. He was humming a melodious song as he went to the bathroom to freshen up. After he was done, he took Ethan’s porch and left. He didn't want to drive his Ferrari, but he knew Ethan was going to have his head by morning, but he didn't care.“He got to the bar and ordered a
