He turned to look at the man, and he concluded within him that the reason why the secret passage door was large was because of this man’s size and not because of the other workers. He was bulky and well built and he had a stoic expression on his face, Owen knew from that look that he wasn’t welcome, but he choose not to be intimidated. He was middle aged and his hair was a mixture of black and grey and he was dressed in a white tuxedo shirt coupled with a fine black denim jean and a casual slipper. Owen observed him for a while as different scenes filled his mind as he thought of what would happen if things go south.

CHAPTER THIRTY THREE Owen had just left James' house, his security guards had been annoyed by the time he wasted there but they couldn't make any objections. He could clearly see the annoyance on their faces but since none of them said a word, he just walked to the car while one of the men opened the door and he got in, closing the door after him. The rest also stepped into their various cars, taking their positions before they started their journey. Maria had called him about three times while he was there and although he had assured her that everything was fine, he knew she would be dead worried. The car was quiet and Owen knew that the guards were not too happy so he decided to make it up to them on their way home.

He tried yo get up from the couch but he found it hard to. His whole body hurt and he felt weak, it felt as if he had undergone some hard labour and he could only massage his shoulders. He didn't even know which one he hated most at the moment. The headache that was wracking his temples at the moment or the weakness he felt in all the parts of his body.

He didn't even know how he got home but he knew that it would have been the work if the guards.

CHAPTER THIRTY FIVE Nb: the former chapter had a typographical error, it was actually talking about Mia( Owen's maid) and not Maria(Kate's mother) sorry for the error Owen was in his office, his pen in his mouth as he thought about what Mia had said earlier. He had not thought about it the probability, thanks to his former marriage which was a total disaster. His marriage with Kate had been every man's wish at the beginning but after he lost his wealth, the whole successful marriage facade went down the hill. Kate's mother Maria had tried her every best to come in between then and after many failed attempts, she had succeeded in poisoning Kate's mind.

CHAPTER THIRTY SIX Tamara had remained silent after Owen's question and Owen was getting impatient with her lack of speech but he remained calm. He knew what she was trying to do, she was trying to emotionally blackmail him into agreeing to her terms and giving in to her needs. “I won't actually call it a loan yuuno, just a little favor from one family member to the other. You are well aware that my company's bankruptcy would also put your own company in trouble.” Owen scowled visibly, she wanted help but instead of her begging or asking for it, she was trying to blackmail him into helping her. Tamara was a sly wretch and that was why she had always been the pillar of the family. She had all the traits of a businesswoman, she was wise, cold and greedy. He had always known that he would have a hard time dealing with her. Maria was not too intelligent and he might admit that she had the brain of a fish. But Tamara was the direct opposite of Maria, she was very intelligent and

CHAPTER THIRTY SEVEN “And what property would you have me give you as collateral” Tamara asked Owen “I don't know, what property of yours do you think would be worth the amount you are asking for…” Owen paused in his tracks “How much are we even talking about here?” “Well, I'll say it's a little token in comparison to this empire you own. Let me say about thirty million dollars” Tamara said and Owen scoffed “Thirty million dollars is not a small token Mrs Sinclair, and the empire you speak of does not belong to me, I am just the CEO, nothing more. As for the amount you are asking for, I'll see what I can do about it, but you'll have to give me something that is worth that exact amount” “You were once the owner of the entity, what property of ours would you have me give you?” Tamara asked him “How about the penthouse in Bahamas?” Owen said and if it wasn't for the fact that Tamara was well behaved, she would have cursed at him. “The penthouse in Bahamas?
