Chapter 20“Are you lost?” Megan suddenly heard someone behind her which startled her, she tilted her head immediately and saw a lady looking at her, she guessed she worked at the Roeye Empire because of the workers' identity card that was around her neck.“No, I am not. I am just trying to fix my skirt, I am done, and I will be leaving the building soon” Megan replied, and the worker nodded, even though she was finding it difficult to believe what Megan had said. “You should do it fast and leave, the way you are standing here makes you look suspicious,” she said and Megan smiled“Thank you” she muttered and watched the worker walk away, as soon as she was gone the smile on her face left immediately.She has been standing there for the past two hours and Owen hasn’t come out of the building. Just when she was about to give up and call it a day, she heard footsteps and looked up immediately, it was Owen and Mr. Raymond.“I think I will just go home and rest, I will try to find a way t
Chapter 21Martin sat down in the bank, impatiently tapping his feet on the ground, hoping the manager would respond to him soon. He had been here for over an hour, and they didn’t care about him, he wondered how their customer service was low, but he had no choice but to stay still.He was in dire need of help and this was not the time he flared up out of proportion, he exhaled and looked at his wristwatch, going the bank manager would respond to him soon, he heard his phone ringing and noticed it was Megan, so he hissed and ignored the call putting his phone in silence, it was better for him that way since he had something more important to attend to.“Mr. Martin, the manager is free to see you now,” one of the staff said and Martin stood up immediately “Thank you,” he said and walked inside the manager’s office. He met the manager at his seat who gestured for him to set down, and he did as he was told.“I have been waiting for quite some time,” Martin said, trying to control his a
Chapter 22“What are we going to do regarding your father’s health?” Rebecca said, and Megan ran her hand on her hair.“We shouldn’t tell him first, it will only worsen the state he is in already, you know he is still grieving over the company that he has to lock down” Megan replied and Rebecca nodded. She sighed and sat down next to her daughter.“I am confused about why everything is happening at once, I don’t know what we are going to do or who will should run to for help, have you been able to reach Martin?” Rebecca asked and Megan nodded negatively. “I haven’t been able to reach him, he is not picking up my calls. I have the intention of going over to his eyes, I need to know whether he is fine or not” Megan replied and Rebecca sighed, she was busy looking at the lazy rotation of the fan, she had felt so helpless in her life before and at this point she feels there is no light at the end of the tunnel.“Do you think Martin can lend us some money?” Rebecca suddenly asked, breakin
Chapter 23Martin was lost in thought and didn’t know what to do, he was tired of calling everyone and there was no one willing to help him. “I can’t go down the drain this way, I have to find a means to save myself” he muttered to himself.His hands were running over his hair frequently and his hair turned messy, he cleared his throat and decided to watch the news. Maybe that will help him relax and think of a possible way to get himself from the problem he had found himself in.He had been unable to feed properly, his heart had been filled with sorrows which made him joy to feel hungry, he took the remote control and turned on the television, he sat down and concentrated on the news.“The Roeye empire has decided to embark on buying the Zyril iron and steel industry, this was the first huge step the new CEO had decided to take and also…” he turned it on the television.He couldn’t believe he was here struggling while Owen had the thought of buying an industry which is only going to
Martin was still shocked by the revelation Owen made, he couldn’t believe Owen was the cause of everything he had gone through. “You are joking right?” he asked his eyes getting blurry, his throat constricted and he tried to force himself not to cry, he had never felt so much pain before and it felt like the wall was closing up on him.“Do you think I am joking Martin? I wouldn’t joke about something as serious as this, you deserve it, for everything you both did to me. You and Megan deserve each other” Owen said and smirked.He was enjoying the sorrow in Martin and had never felt so happy to see another man suffer. “I will report you to the police and you will refund every damn thing you stole from me, I will definitely get my company back and compensation dues!”Martin said angrily. He fisted his hands and his knuckles almost turned white. Owen burst into laughter after hearing what he said.“Do you think you can do anything? What is your evidence, what power do you have to fight me

Chapter 25“I will go through the documents and send by feedback,” Owen said and the lady nodded walking out of his office. He was tired of working, he had been so busy in his office that he had missed lunch, he decided to take a stroll to the nearby Restaurant and find something to eat before returning to his office.After ordering his food, he sat down and patiently tapped his finger on the table waiting for his order, he suddenly heard footsteps approaching and someone aggressively pulled the chair and sat down on it glaring at him, so he arched his brows at him.“Is everything okay?” he asked and the intruder chuckled“It seems Reynold didn’t introduce you to the whole family members, he forgot to do that,” he said and Owen sighed, slowly rubbing his temple. The Roeye family must be very big and troublesome, just when he wanted to have a great time to himself another member of the family came over to pester him.Just before he could respond, the waiter came towards the table and d
Chapter 26Owen stepped out of the bathroom ready to retire for the night after a whole day of work when he saw Megan standing before him, he was startled and his eyes were a bit widened he couldn’t believe Megan would come to his room again.“What are you doing here? How do you get past the security each time?!” he asked angrily and Megan’s eyes trailed on his body, his body was still great and she remembered she couldn’t wait to touch his body and make love to him like they always did.She moved closer to him and he arched his brows at her, she tried to touch him and he stepped back. “Don’t you dare touch me with that filthy hands of yours, I don’t want you to ever in your life lay your hands on me, the thought of you alone irks me, you should know that!” he said and Megan smiled faintly.“You can’t push me away Owen, I will fight to stay because I love you!” she said and Owen burst into laughter.“You love me? After everything you have caused me? After how you made me hate myself,
