Rise of the lowly janitor Bribe and Millers
*Jake POV*It’s mid morning and the sun shining bright. I watch the women get into the car before moving under the nearest shade. I hope they are brave enough to drive off to safety if this becomes sour. The stout man quietly follows me and immediately starts talking.“Mr Anderson.” His stern commanding voice does not help me shorten the list of whom I think he is. He looks too calm and sure of himself for my liking. I curse inside for leaving my weapon behind. I am not used to being armed all the time, but it’s something I have to learn now that my life has taken such a drastic turn. I am quite an efficient martial artist, but that also has limits, especially in the open like this. This guy could be concealing a gun under that coat, giving him an upper hand over any skill I have. “What do you want?”“You wrongfully arrested my clients. I need you to drop the charges.”I chuckle and walk away from him, no longer worried if he has a weapon or not. A rich boy’s lawyer is the least of
Rise of the lowly janitor Arrested
*Jake POV*We finally get out of the car to have what will be our lunch. I catch a glimpse of someone and I can’t help but be amused. Len thought and even believed that leaving me to fend for myself was cutting off his attachments and maybe protecting me, but he was wrong. Now that I know a bit more about him and Tom, I am starting to wonder how much they crept in the corners when I was growing up. “I could swear I saw your creepy godfather.”I grin at how observant Tanya has become. “You go ahead, I will find you inside.”“Your usual?” My gorgeous saviour asks.I plant a kiss on her lips, my heart full. It really warms my heart how much attention she pays on my preferences. “My Babe knows me.” “Get a room!” Mia complains but we are used to her. “Get a man.” I hear Tanya respond as I walk away from them and around the corner. This man actually stands like a statue as if I can mistaken him for one. “Hi, Len.”“Jake.”I laugh at his poker face. “How are you?”“You are going to be
Rise of the lowly janitor Holding cell
*Jake POV*“Here comes the vultures,” the police captain says before all the chaos breaks loose.In a split second, we are surrounded by journalists, each one shoving their mics on my face.“Mr Anderson, is it true that you assaulted Advocate Brent?”“Is it true that you arrested Mr Spencer as revenge for him sleeping and impregnating your ex-fiancée’?”That question catches me by surprise. I know that George dumped Leticia like a used toilet paper before his arrest. I also know that George’s mother chased her out of the her son”s apartment that very same day. The pregnancy is the first I am hearing of.“Do you not think it was a conflict of interest to have been the one handling the president’s case when you clearly have history with Mr Spencer?”I don’t even know which one is asking what and I don’t care. I flash them my innocent smile before following the captain to his car.“You look too relaxed about this, Mr Anderson,” the captain says, worriedly.“That’s because I have no reaso
Rise of the lowly janitor Aftermath
*Jake POV*The following morning is chaotic at the police station. The paramedics are in and out of the cell, while the officers who were on duty last night are running around like headless chickens. They must have been so engrossed by those girls because the whole night none on them came to the cells to check what was going on. The bastards must have thought I would be dead by now. I wonder what they planned to write on their reports because their expressions when they found me standing instead of the rich idiots, was speechless. “Can anyone tell us their names?” the senior paramedic shouts. It’s really amusing because these guys are very well known yet the paramedics can’t tell them apart now. “George, Lance, Mathew, Rick and Mark,” one officer responds. The paramedic sighs. “Maybe my question was not clear. We’ve been given the names, we need to know which one is which for us to record in our assessments and for the hospital handover.”The officer looks closely at the five ma
Rise of the lowly janitor Gold digger
*Jake POV*The reporters are on my face the moment I step out. Do these people ever sleep?It’s Mr Anderson this and that. I don’t know who is asking what and I don’t care. I walk towards Tom’s car at my usual pace with them firing questions I have no intentions of answering. I am about to open the passenger door when the reporter behind me asks a question I can not ignore. “We know that your ex fiancée turned out to be the gold digger who betrayed you with Mr Spencer. Are you not worried about the gold digger you are currently dating?”Some people have guts. I turn around and walk straight to him. He must be one of those faceless people on the social media who are always calling Tanya names. Len rolls down the window. “Jake,”he warns while the rest of the reporters suddenly shy away. I guess they can tell that I am pissed. I don’t care what they think of me, but Tanya cares and will definitely be hurt by this. The idiot is now shaking, as if I can do anything to him with so many p
Rise of the lowly janitor The beginning
*Jake POV*Two weeks later…The crooked cops who tried to hand me over to George and his friends are all fired. The captain has been under a lot of pressure with all the reports and disciplinary actions for his staff but he is slowly becoming my new ally. Even though all stretched out with limited staff, he informs me that the good guys would rather work harder than have rotten potatoes in their organisation. I can’t wait to see their response to the state of the art crime- embarking new technology I have anonymously donated to the department. Tanya says that makes me more like an ARF agent, combating crime behind the scenes, but it’s not the same. Checking the time, I have a few minutes to get downstairs, grab a quick bite before I am late for work. I find my Babe in the lounge, all sweaty and provocative. “Morning sleepy head,” my gorgeous fiancée beams, planting a kiss on my cheeks. Her rosy cheeks, sexy sports bra and shorts tell me that she’s coming back from her morning run.
Rise of the lowly janitor Playing along
*Jake POV*The missing footage of the president’s attempted assassination is already breaking news. No one is even talking about the deputy president stepping down. The whole country is shocked when the police department cannot explain how the vital piece of evidence just vanished from their secured storage. The media is already speculating that the culprits are most likely the expelled corrupt police officers. I roll my eyes when the presidential spokesperson relays the highest office’s shock at the news. I really do feel for Captain Swart who has to answer for another case of his department failure when I know the real culprits.I find Tanya, Mia and Mercy having tea at the balcony. They are not surprised to learn that Len and Tom are behind the missing footage. I don’t think they quite understand how all our lives will change when those idiots are released. “So, you quit your job?”“Not really. I am on official highly classified mission,” I clarify to my fiancée, who is looking s
Rise of the lowly janitor Visitors
*Jake POV*Three days later…I wake up the to find Mia in the lounge all sweaty and breathless and Mercy having tea in the lounge. I turn to the Mia after planting a kiss on Mercy’s cheeks. “Where’s my fiancée?”She had reluctantly agreed to run with Tanya in order to get rid of her new ‘running partners’ but I don’t see Tanya anywhere. She urns around and peeps through the balcony. “There she is, limping like a crybaby. I can’t …”“Why is she limping?” I cut her short, my heart already pounding. “She fell and..”“She what? …and you left her behind? What’s wrong with you?” I am really freaking out now and yelling at Mia, who is looking at me like I’m crazy. Tanya has never injured herself running, she can’t afford to be falling now with a precious cargo on board. “Ahem!” Mercy clears her throat. She thinks I’m overreacting but I can’t help it. Mia rolls her eyes at me. “Tanya is a softie, but a sprain never killed anyone.” She heads upstairs while I’m cursing myself. I can feel

Bra Joe
*Jake POV*“Tell me,” Mia urges. She is very impatient. It’s no wonder that fast cars are her career. Tanya waves her left hand at her and laughs when Mia’s eyes widen. “You have been wearing the real ring all along!” she cries. I never really replaced Tanya’s ring with a fake but said that at our wedding for her safety. The fake was the one on the safe all along. She was surprised too when I told her the truth. “Those idiots are going to be killed trying to sell a fake,” Mia adds. “I hope so, but if they don’t, Joe is working on a permanent solution to get rid of them,” tom says casually. “Bra Joe?” I ask and he nods.“My Bra Joe?” I ask again. There is nothing I would not do to meet that man again. Not only did he take me in, but he also gave me a survival skill that has kept me alive. Tanya raises her eyebrows and curls her lips.‘What? I love that man,” I say defensively, right when a tall, dark and masculine figure emerges out of the scullery. “And he loves you

Security breach
*Jake POV*Tanya and I check in at the off the grid ARF quarters, while an undercover agent boards the plane as my imposter. Tom and Len tried their best to convince me to go with their plan, but that was a risk I was not willing to take. A fake me heads to the summit and fake Tanya remains at home is what we settled to.“This place is not too bad,” she says before taking off her shoes and lying on the couch. I get her point. The place looks nothing like what I imagined. It’s more like a very secured five star apartment with everything one can need. I sit at her feet and massage them. I can tell that she is exhausted. It does not help that being married to me has brought her so many enemies, but she never complains. “I doubt it was always like this. I bet my crazy godfathers revamped this place just for you,” I say and she shrugs. Tom and Len are very fond of my wife. While her mother and sister think that I am spoiling her rotten, they think she deserves to be spoiled more. They e

The ploy
*Jake POV*Tanya is nine months pregnant, and I can’t wait to meet my baby. “Jake!” she cries when I wake up and run my hand over her massive tummy. “What?” I ask, amused. “You love this baby more than me. You have not even greeted me good morning,” my hot ball of cuteness sulks and I can’t help but laugh before covering her lips with mine and passionately kissing her.“Good morning VP lady.”She giggles.“I can never love anything or anyone more than you, Gorgeous,” I reassure her, and she melts. Her crazy sister has been teasing her about how the baby is now the family’s favourite and not aware how fragile pregnant women can be. It does not help that she has lost all her beauty pageant body because of the pregnancy. “What are we going to do with Letitia, and George and his friends?” she asks. She is no longer naïve about all of this and I am glad.“My godfathers are working on it.”She raises her eyebrows while I laugh. “Believe me, you don’t want to know,” I tell her. Len and To

*George POV*I lay on my bed with Leticia on my side. She is behaving like a perfect girlfriend but I am not so naive. She, like almost every woman out there now is crazy about the idiot. I am pretty sure that she even dreams about that pestilent. I know about the sexy photos of Jake she has hidden in her inbox. I have seen her ogling them when she thinks no one is looking. Her being hung up on Jake is exactly what I need her for. The whole country saw her lose it at Jake’s wedding. No one would be surprised if she did something stupid like killing Tanya and even Jake.There are also a multiple defaced photos of Tanya there.Her daft head does not know that I have hidden cameras around the mansion. I pretend not to notice anything. I intentionally mentioned Jake’s billion dollars ring while on the call with Mathew because I know that she is listening. A day later, she has several photographs of it. All that will be evidence that she has been stalking Jake and Tanya. I now have an esca

Mind games
*Leticia POV*I have been living in Lily town streets for what feels like years now. I have seen things I heard about on the news and saw on horror movies here. It’s a cut throat life where you watch your back and trust no one. Not even the cops.Cold at night, forever in danger, my body is the only thing keeping me alive. Jake is on every newspaper I see on the trash. He is on every billboard across town and on every television station of the customers who take me home. They always give me that fake smile when he comes up. They all know my history with him. I bet some are even laughing as they fuck me, but I will have the last laughter. Jake is mine and forever will be. I was to scream and pull my hair off when I see that Miss goody Tanya. That whore stole my man but soon I will be the First Lady and no one will care about my life in these streets. Makeup, red lipstick, slutty maid costume and red high heels, I catwalk the highway like I am in a fashion runway. The naive, holier t

Laying low
*George POV*It’s just over six months since we got out of prison. The boys want revenge as in yesterday. I do too but I know better now. I underestimated my rival and got burned fucken bad. It will take a lifetime for me to recover from what Jake did. I shut the door to my study and click on the untraceable link for our weekly meetings. “George here,” Mathew announces. We are careful not to be seen anywhere together these days. I have not seen anything but I know that Jake is watching us. He would be an idiot not to and if it’s not him then it’s our country’s ghosts, his godfathers. “Hi George. We are all here. Can we start?” Rick asks impatiently but I already know what they want. “We can, but we are not attacking that mother fucker yet,” I say decisively. I have somehow become the voice of reason to all of them now and they are not pleased with me. “Told you guys,” Lance responds but I don’t care. I am all about self preservation these days. I still have granddad’s millions

Yours
*Jake POV*That evening, Tanya walks out of the closet with her transparent gown on. I was planning on just sleeping tonight but one glimpse at her my heart is already racing. “Jake,” she calls me softly and advances to the bed. “Mmh?”She gets on the bed next to me and gives me her cute puppy eyes. “I am sorry about Leticia.”I have forgiven her already but she keeps watching that video, feels guilty and apologies again. I lay on my back with arms behind my head and I give her a mischievous smile.“Show me how much.”She giggles and gets on top of me. “I love you,” she murmurs before she leaves a trail of soft kisses on my neck, chest then down to my abs. I can feel the heat rising inside me and my number hardening. She has that effect on me.I curse under my breath when she pulls down my boxers. Her hand closes around my erection and gentle slides up and down. This feels so damn good. Not as much as when she replaces her hand. She bends down and takes me into her mouth. She suck

Stalemate
*Jake POV*The meeting with the president and Egyptians did not yield much besides providing to us with information of just how valuable my mother’s ring is. They are obviously not impressed when we turn down the offer, but they can’t force us.The following day, the ring and its value is all over the news. I suspect it’s a strategy by the Egyptians to get us to sell. Keeping such a valuable possession is dangerous, I can’t even get an insurance company to insure it. Tanya still refuses for us to sell but she can’t wear it anymore now. Luckily, we have a secured glass exhibition area in our lounge where her miss universe crown is kept. We place it with the crown, the laser beams and our security system should be enough to keep it secured.“Jake, look!” Tanya exclaims, showing me the social media posts.I look at the footage of Leticia throwing the ring at me with mixed feelings. I was really devastated and my whole world had come crushing down that day. She had posted that on her prof

Family
*Jake POV*Two days later, I get home to find Tanya standing in the garden appreciating the colorful flowers before her.She gasps when I wrap my arms around her waist and plant a kiss on her neck.“How’s the nausea?”“Much better. Too expensive, but the medication works. I feel less tired and more alive now,” she confesses with a grin. She was against me buying the expensive medication the doctor recommended for the nausea because of its price. In the end I bought it without her consent.“Good to hear,” I say as I go around and kneeling in front of her to have a word with my baby.“Hey there little one. Did your mom feed you today?”Tanya rolls her eyes and giggles. She sometimes skips meals to avoids being nauseous. That’s the reason I insisted on buying the ridiculously expensive medication.“Can’t trust beauty pageants with this stuff, but daddy got your back, always.”“Tell your daddy not to worry because I am eating like a pig now,” Tanya responds, still rolling her eyes. She th
