"Alright, champ, get eating." Owen smirked, his finger pointing towards the food that was scattered around on the floor.Bill clenched his fists in anger as he regretted his decision instantly. If only he knew better, he would have just left the restaurant without making a scene.But there was no going back now..he already made the decision and all eyes was now fixated on him, even his friends and girlfriend he invited over were watching, but they made sure to stand few centimeters away from Bill so they won't get dragged along his humiliation.Bill stood there with his head bowed down in shame..what he wished for right now was for the ground to open up and swallow him."Why is this guy taking so long?""He was the one who made the deal and now he's trying to back down!""Eat the damn food already!"The crowd began to attack Bill from different angles with hateful words after he stood there like a statue for several minutes."What's the matter, bro? Weren't you the one that said...you would eat and lick it if i succeed?" Owen spoke as he walked towards Bill and stepped on the food.'Huh?' A puzzled expression stretched across Owen's face as he heard what sounded like someone was crying, and the sound was coming directly from where Bill stood with his head bowed down.Owen shifted his gaze to the floor and could see tears dropping on the floor."Wait...are you crying?" Owen placed his finger below Bill's jaw and lifted his head up to see his eyes red and filled with tears.Catching a glimpse of Bill's face, Owen's heart twitched a bit and he realized he took things too far.Owen had no idea who Bill was before now so he didn't have any special hatred towards him like he does with the Steeles. Even if Bill did abuse him and also harrassed Mia, he didn't see a reason to go too far.Yes, Owen knew he shouldn't feel anything as he punished Bill since Bill was acting like an asshole few minutes ago and if Owen hadn't made the transaction successfully he would be the one eating it and Bill wouldn't have mercy. But just because Bill was this way doesn't mean he has to also act that way.If he was to behave exactly as Bill, then there's no difference between the both of them."Is the motherfucker crying?" A spectator voiced out from where he stood with a look of disappointment."Stupid cry baby..maybe you should go crying to your dad after you eat from the floor like a dog!" Another guy backed up the first."I expected more from him, but he seems he's more stupid than we thought!"Once again, the customers who curently watched and made live video of the ongoing situation began to rain abuses on Bill after realizing he was actually crying.Who does that?Bill grabbed unto Owen's arm and began to plead."Please, have mercy. I wi..."Owen then set his arm free from Bill's grip and began to walk away without sparing him a glance."Get out of here before i change my mind." Saying those words, Owen exited the place and headed straight to the changing room.Bill stood there dazed by Owen's words and actions before turning around and dashed out of the restaurant to avoid further humiliation.***Owen went straight to the changing room and got dressed in his white waiter attire and a long white cap. Since his in-laws already kicked him out of the house, he thought it would be best to work a night shift, and in the morning he would use his free time to go rent an apartment.He already had the money to buy any mansion he wish to buy, but Owen knew it's better if he lie low for now and still live like he used to.If a poor man like him suddenly starts spending lavishly, it would only raise suspicions and people might start suspecting that his father was still alive.Even if Owen was mad at his father for keeping the truth of his well being from him for so long, he couldn't afford him getting exposed.Albert did mentioned something about someone out to kill Gilbert Sinclair, so the best thing to do now was to lie low and avoid any means of suspicion.Even if he did spent hundreds of dollars her tonight inftront of everyone, he could always lie his way out. Afterall, he was the Son in-law of the Steele's family, he can easily make them believe that the money was given to him by his in-laws.After getting dressed in his uniform, Owen turned around to leave but saw Mia standing behind him with a questioning look.

CHAPTER SIXTurning around, Owen found Mia standing behind him with a questioning look, and he could already guess why she was here."Hey, what's up?" Owen questioned, trying to act normal."Don't give me that, Owen. What just happened?" Mia questioned with raised eyebrows."What do you mean?" Owen responded with a question, trying to act dumb."Come on, Owen, you know what i am talking about." Mia let out a sigh and facepalmed."Oh, you mean what happened earlier with the customer?" Owen inquired, scratching his curly black hair like he was trying to recall."Yeah, that. How were you able to pay such huge amount of money?" Mia questioned, still shocked by what happened earlier.She has known Owen for quite a while now and know most things about him. The duo has spent lots of times together, both good times and bad times and never for once has she seen Owen the way he was earlier.Owen did borrowed few dollars from her in the past to buy himself food, and all of a sudden he's here thr

CHAPTER SEVEN Owen finally finished his night shift at exactly 4:03am and he felt extremely exhausted and all he needed now was sleep. Owen headed straight to the boss's office to inform him about his leave tomorrow but sadly the man turned him down and said the leave won't be granted even though Owen worked two shifts today. Owen left the man's office sadly and went to change.Luckily for him, Kate texted him during his shift that Maria also kicked her out of the mansion temporarily making her go stay with her aunt and Owen was welcomed to come.The aunt's residence was only few streets away from the hotel so it wouldn't take so much time for him to get there. Owen changed back into his clothes and headed out of the hotel.Kate's aunt's residence was a medium sized bungalow with different modern designs and gardens. Inside the building, two ladies could be seen having a discussion."Why did your mother ask you to leave?" Aunt Jenna questioned, still surprised by the fact that Maria

CHAPTER EIGHTWalking towards the table with the food tray, Owen recognized the couple that was currently discussing and smiling.'There's no doubt..that's Kate and Chris McLean.' Owen pondered internally, clenching the tray in his hands and anger surging through him but he chose to Surprise it and act cool. After all, he wasn't sure if they were here on a date or business meeting.Kate did inform him last night on how she wishes to secure a job at Echelon Industries, and Chris was a worker there so it's possible they were only in the restaurant to make a deal or something.Those were Owen's thoughts as he approached the duo."Here's your order." Owen spoke, hoping for Kate to glance at his face and smile, instead she didn't spare him a glance as she kept giggling with Chris.Owen fumed in anger but chose to remain cool and place the meal on the table."Hey, come over here!" Chris ordered just when Owen was about to leave. "What the fuck is this?" Chris questioned, pointing towards th

CHAPTER NINEOwen clenched his fists tightly in anger as he charged towards Chris, shoving him to the floor and his body stained the red wine on the floor."Get off of me, you bastard!" Chris lamented as Owen sat on top of him and sent out a punch that connected neatly to his face.Owen's punch slammed heavily on Chris's face and caused blood to be drawn. Owen pulled his second fist backwards and punched it out towards Chris's face once more."I am going to kill you bastard!" Owen voiced out as security came in and pulled him off Chris.The security grabbed Owen's arms and pulled him meters away from Chris and he still struggled to break free to teach Chris more lessons."That's it, Owen, you are fired!" The boss walked to their location and declared. "Get your crap and get the hell out of my property!"The securities then set Owen free of their grip and he headed towards the changing room in anger."I am truly sorry about that, Mr. McLean." The boss said apologetically."Nah, it's fi

CHAPTER TEN The conference room was noisy as the attendants were busy communicating among themselves. Some were busy discussing about their plans for a better future, while others were lamenting about their past losses. The meeting room was filled to the brim as the people there all had their eyes out for just one thing. Bagging a contract with the Echelon industries. Echelon industries was one of the biggest group of companies in the country and any contract with them would surely be a blast. Different elite families were present, Maria Steele was also present and along with her came Kate. Maria had always been someone to show off so on a special occasion like today, (Kate had told her of her relationship with Chris, so she was sure they would be able to bag a contract easily) she dressed as if she was going for a fashion show. They were still indulging in their discussions when Chris came into the room and the whole place went silent in a minute. He was putting on a navy blu

“Now, where we’re we?” Owen asked and smiled. Maria’s heart began to beat faster at the sinister smile Owen had on. “Ladies and gentlemen, I have gone through all the proposals and just like my colleague had said earlier, they were all good but I couldn’t take all so I have chosen the two best among them.” He paused a little and stared at the crowd before commencing.“After much deliberation, I have come to the conclusion that the two most worthy contracts are the ones from the Steeles and Mrs Tamara here” He paused for a while as the whole crowd grumbled about his decision. Many felt he had selected them because they were his relatives. Because it was no coincidence that he had chosen his former family’s business and his wife’s family business. Maria was happy beyond comprehension. The joy she felt in her heart at that moment was the most she had felt in her entire lifetime. She had always known that Owen was a fool but she didn’t know that it was up to this extent. But

“Is that so?” Owen asked and the attorney nodded in response “Yes, my don. We’ve signed our part. Now all that is left is for you to sign yours” Maria said with a fake smile and Owen quirked his brows. The attorney handed him a pen and he stared at each of them for some time before asking “have you gone through the whole deal?” He asked Maria.without a second thought “oh, yes we have” she answered and Kate stared at her questioningly but Maria ignored her stares. Owen signed on the paper and with the help of his attorney, the stamp was placed on the signatures and the deal was sealed. When they were through with the signing and stamping process, Maria suggested that they had a drink to celebrate the future of their companies. Owen used the intercom to request for a bottle of Chardonnay and in no time, the wine was delivered to the room. They had just popped the bottle of wine open when Maria received a call but she ignored it. Owen poured a considerable amount of wine into the

He knew he would surely be punished for it but above all, he wished he wouldn’t end uo losing his job. That blood sucking whore Kate he cursed under his breath. For some Time now, he had been asking her out and she choose today of all days to accept him. “C**t” he cursed under his breath. He was still in his thought when a knock came on his door “who is that motherf***er” he cursed out loud and the voice he heard next sacred the living shit out of him “it’s me Owen” he heard the voice from the other side and immediately, he rushed to the door. He heaved a sigh before turning the door knob. “Forgive my inappropriate words Mr Owen” he said admidst a bow and thrust out his hand for a handshake. Owen accepted his hands and they both shared eye contact for a while before Chris lowered his gaze “Won’t you invite me in? Or is

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY SIX “I shouldn't have fought with her” Kate said, as she lay in bed with Mario in her room. She had thought of what happened between her and her mother earlier and now, she was feeling a little bit guilty. She could clearly understand the kind of pain and confusion her mother was in, and yelling at her that way was like pouring salt on an open wound. She had to sleep over it to realize that. Mario shifted on the bed and she understood he was trying to sit up. She sat up and he did too. They sat facing each other and he gave her a look that said ‘I told you so’ . “Don't give me that look” Kate said as she bent her face. She was already having a bad day without getting out of bed. She stood up from the bed and stripped to the bathroom. She washed her face and cleaned her teeth before coming out. She met him in the same position she had left him and she gave him a questioning look. “Aren't you getting out of bed?” She asked. “Hell, I am

The guards had stopped banging the door and Rose Mary surmised that they had come to a conclusion that banging it would not make her open it. She had a cunny smirk on her face. “What do you say Danny? Just a word from you and those men outside will back down. You can end this, you alone can end it” Tyla continued, hoping she could convince her even though her hope was very low. “So, I should let him go? Is that what you are trying to say” She asked, her gun still pointing at Owen where he knelt on the floor. “Yes, and we can all go home in Peace” Rose Mary replied this time. “Here you are, talking of peace and still having a gun pointed at me. How peaceful that looks” Danny taunted. Owen looked between Rose and Tyla and he gave her a slow nod. She gave Danny a thorough look before gently bringing the gun

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY FOUR Rina sat on the floor in the bathroom, she had left the shower on so she could cry and shout without anyone outside noticing even though she knew they wouldn't notice since the walls were soundproof and she had shut the door damn tight. She couldn't take Tyla's voice off her mind, the statement repeated itself severally in her ears and she tried to shut it off, but it wasn't working out. Of all the times, now that she had finally fallen for him, now that she had decided to be good, live a good life and make kids with him. She laughed warily. It seems fate has its own way of making decisions. She had finally become a first wife without even asking for it. Never in her wildest dreams would she think that something like this would actually happen. She didn't grow up in a polygamous family so she wouldn't want her kid to grow up in one as she knew about the issues that always resulted. She got under the running shower with her clothes on

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY THREE She never thought Gabriel would think of coming here in this lifetime. “What the hell is Gabriel doing here?” She asked no one in particular “Tell him I'm on my way” she told the girl before going back in and she heard the girl leave. She went back into her room and she wiped the tears off her face and applied a little bit of makeup to shield her swollen under eyes. She came out after a little time and she went downstairs to see Gabriel. He came with his assistant, his handbag as she addressed him before. “To what do I owe this pleasure?” She asked as she walked down the stairs majestically. Gabriel and the man raised their heads up simultaneously to look at her. “Tamara” Gabriel called and she cocked a brow at him. “What is it Mr man?” She asked “How's Daniel?” He asked and she chuckled loudly. “Oh, you remembered to ask of him today. That's weird, did something happen to Owen? Huh? Best father of the year” She said, her voi

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY TWO “Hands up where I can see them” she heard him say again and she obeyed without complaining. She heard an engine roar and in no time, the whole place lit up. It seems they had put on the generator. She cursed as she saw the person pointing the gun at her. It was the man from earlier, the one she had not killed and she regretted that decision right now. She should have just killed him, but it was too late. Sb couldn't turn back the hand of time. She raised both of her hands up in the air and she saw another shooter come out from the back. It was Danny and it seems like the woman recognized her too because she smirked when she saw her. Tyla gave her a bored look, she had this haughty smile on her face. “What a surprise Tyla, looks like Owen couldn't man up and come by himself, so he sent you instead. That's funny” she said,her smirk not leaving her face. “Well, he didn't seem you worthy enough” Tyla replied with a calm smile and Danny cocked

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY ONE “Unfortunately, I can't. You have to listen to me” Mario yelled back and that earned him a glare from Kate. “I do not regret it because no matter how many times I look at it, all I can see is the day you walked through that door and then the moment you agreed to marry me” he paused for a while. “At first, I had decided that I would just play along until it was time to leave, but after spending a day with you, here in this house, I fell without second thoughts. I do not know what you have done or what you are doing to me Kate, heck I didn't even marry you out of love, but I can gladly tell you that this man right here is on a leash and you Kate, are the one who holds that leash” he paused again. He could see she was literally struggling with the tears that were threatening to pour out any minute. “I understand why you're acting this way, but I just want you to know that I am very sorry and I wish you would actually forgive me and we can go b

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY NINE Owen had his arms wrapped around Tyla as they lay on the bed. He knew Rina would probably scream her head out if she came in and saw them in this position. But he had to do what was important and getting Tyla to sleep was very important at this moment. He ran his hand across her back and she relaxed against his touch. They lay side to side, her back pressed closely against his chest, while his arm was wrapped around her waist. “Owen” she called, her voice a little bit groggy. He could tell that she was almost falling asleep. “Hmm” he replied and she was silent for a while, the beeping sound of the machines in the room being the only sound audible. She sighed loudly before she finally spoke up. “Do you think bad people deserve to be loved too?” She asked and he was taken back by her question. He didn't think she would actually ask him something like this. “Yeah” he answered sincerely “Everybody deserves to be loved” he added. She wanted
