Andrew shot a deadly glance at her. “Are you sure of what you are saying?” He asked her.Jane swallowed the saliva in her mouth. Her eyes met with his, “I am very sure, sir!” She said without wavering.Andrew heaved out some air. “Okay! So, how do you plan on helping me get this project?” He asked her.Jane licked her lower lips. “I know a few friends overseas that can help you,” she said to him.Andrew wondered why she was bent on helping him. But he kept his mouth shut.“Hum! That sounds interesting. How do I get to meet them?” He asked her.“You don't need to worry about that. That's why I will come with you,” she said to him.Andrew was skeptical about that. “I want to go alone! I wouldn't want any company,” he said to her.Jane smirked and she stood on her feet immediately. “Kiss the project goodbye,” she said to him, already excusing him.Andrew sighed. “Wait!” He finally let out those words.Jane's face hovered with a dark smile. That was what she expected. She halted her feet
Lucas walked through the route and in no time, he arrived at the front of Mr Greg.Mr Greg raised his head at once. “Oh, Mr Lucas, you are here!” He said as if he didn't know when he walked up to him.“Good day, Mr Greg!” He greated him.“Please, have your seat!” He said to Lucas.Lucas sat on the chair and soon, Jane came along.Greg was surprised to see a beautiful damsel on his table. “Who is this?” He asked Lucas.Lucas glanced at Jane, “She is the lady that will make your dreams come true,” he said to him.Greg looked at her. “Did you mean she is the one you have been talking about?” He asked him.Lucas nodded his head. “Yes! She is the one,” he replied to him.“Okay! Please find a seat,” Greg said to her.She quickly finds herself a good chair. She sat on it.“You know why I am here, Mr Lucas!” He said to him.Lucas exhaled. “I know why you are here, and that is why I want you to hear it from the horse's mouth,” he said to him.“Okay… I am ears!” Greg said to him.Jane exhaled.
Andrew returned home with lots of thoughts in his mind. The way the lady reacted to every situation was giving him a red signal. As much as she looked real, it seemed she had something hidden under her skirt.“Two can play the game!” He thought in his head.Andrew stepped into the mansion, “welcome back, Young master!” He greeted him.“Thank you. Where is my father?” He asked him.The steward gave a thought for a moment. “He is in his room,” he said to him.Andrew didn't bother giving a reply, he walked to his room. Getting to his door, he knocked gently.James Roger opened his eyes. “AHH!” He stretched himself. He didn't know he had slept for that long.“I am coming!” He had to reply to the person that had been knocking on his door. That knock was what woke him.James Roger stepped down from his bed. He went to the door directly, he opened up.Right before Roger was his son. “Son! You are back from work!” He said to him.Andrew nodded his head. He stepped into his father's room.“Fa
“I remembered my first flight experience was somewhat frightening,” she said to him.Andrew dampened some air into the atmosphere. “My first experience wasn't frightening. It was just like a normal flight to me,” he said to her.“Yes! We all have different experiences in life. So, tell me about you?” Andrew asked her.Jane was skeptical. She knew there was an ulterior motive to his questions. “You will get to know me. For now, let's keep it this way,” she said to him.Andrew licked his lip. He wanted to push forward but he withdrew his words. He had to act like he was okay with her words.“Okay! I just want to know you a little more,” he said to her.Jane didn't bother to say a word. She had these cold character traits just like Andrew.Few minutes later, she asked, “Mr Andrew, what do you know about the oil project?” Jane asked him. All she wanted to do was to see how vast he was.“Oil project! I know a lot about it. But I didn't pay attention to it until now,” he said to her.Jane e
Two elegant men stepped down from the car. Andrew and Jane halted their steps, they wanted to know what would actually be the end of the whole drama.The driver of the car got down and he ran to meet Andrew.“Young master, I am sorry for keeping you waiting, hope you are not angry?” He apologized to him.An air of questions flooded Andrew's mind. “Who told him he was around? How did he know he was there?” There are a lot more questions flooding his little round mind. Andrew exhaled. He glanced at him, “I am not angry, but who are you?” He asked him.“Oh! Young master! That is indeed my bad. I am more than sorry about my foolishness. How can I have not introduced myself?” He slapped own face.Jane smirked. She didn't know when her face was filled with loads of smiles.“My name is Patrick. I called my Mr James Roger that his son would be in town. Who am I not to leave all I was doing,” he said to him.Andrew got the point at that moment. “Did you mean my father told you about my locati
“You won't cease to amaze me, father! Anyways, thank you,” he expressed his appreciation.“Don't mention, son! There are a lot of things I have put on a platter for you. All you have to do is just to gently tap into them. Don't rush things,” he said to him.“Father! You know you don't have to do all these,” he said to him.“Yes! I know for sure, but you are my son. I shouldn't let you suffer in any way,” he said to him.Andrew exhaled. “Yes son! You know what? I will get back to you later,” he said to his son and immediately, he ended the call.Andrew dropped his phone on the bed. He felt slightly tired, so he laid on his perfectly laid bed.The day went off and the next day came into view.Andrew opened his eyes after a very long sleep. He looked around where he was for a while, before he decided to step down from his bed. He walked directly to the bathroom.He had a thorough warm bath. He walked out of the bathroom. Andrew was about putting on his old clothings, but he didn't know
Andrew nodded. “Okay! Nice meeting you, Miss Chloe,” he said to her.“Thank you!” “If you don't mind, you can join me in playing gulf,” she said to him.Andrew glanced at him. He wasn't actually interested in that gulf. Andrew hadn't played golf for a long time, but he doesn't want to say no to her.“Okay, but I must let you know that I am not good at playing golf,” he said to her.Chloe understood his point. “I understand your point. Don't worry, I will teach you, maybe that is the reason you are here,” she said to him.Andrew side eyed her. “Don't say that! It just happened that I came here,” he said to her.Few minutes later.“Your father told me that you are after a very big project,” she said to him.Andrew nodded positively. “You are right. I am after an oil project, more reasons I come to see you,” he said to her.“Good! There is this friend of mine that I will connect you to directly, he is the one in charge of the oil project,” she said to him.“Okay, but the problem I have n
Andrew swallowed the saliva in his mouth. “I know what it meant,” he said to him.“Okay. I can't tell you that you will get the deal. I just want you to know that I am not the person making the exact decision,” he said to him.Andrew was getting his point. “So, are you saying there is another person?” He asked him.He nodded his head. “That is what I told him earlier. Although he was contemplating between you and him,” he explained to Andrew. Andrew got the whole point, but he was hell bent on speaking with him. “I understand you, but I want you to help me get oil,” he said to himHe sighed and looked at his face, “but how?” He asked him.Andrew sighed. “Call me your account number, sir! I would love to give you a token,” he said to him.“A token! No, that's bribery, I am not interested,” he said to him.Andrew shot a glance at him. “It is not bribery, this is me gifting you. But if you say, does that mean you can really do something?” He asked him.He swallowed the saliva in his mou
PresentKate enjoyed herself, feeling like the queen of the world as she exerted her power on her employees.All the bonuses they were being given, she stopped them with the excuse of managing the company's funds when the company had enough.The projects coming in reduced sharply as her poor management skill was displayed. The longer she stayed, the worse it became for the company's employees.Some of them took the initiative to speak up but she didn't listen, when they said she didn't listen, they reported to Emilia who instead of taking them seriously, fired them.She did that to them so that it can serve as a warning to others who might have the same thought as them.Soon the employees stopped complaining but instead grumbled as they worked tirelessly in the company.She increased the time spent in the company everyday while she went on vacations.Some of them left the company, thinking there's no hope.After some days passed, Emilia called for a meeting in which they all had to a
On getting home, he went to his room immediately as he thought everyone would be asleep at that time in the night.He entered his room, took off his shoes, socks and paid on the bed without removing his clothes before sleeping off.In Emilia's room, there was somewhat gloomy atmosphere there as Kate and Emilia sat in silence thinking deeply.Immediately Kate got back from office that day, she recounted what happened to Emilia in which she took Kate's side and insulted Andrew in every way possible.Thinking of this thorn in her side, she decided to think of a good plan that can be used to deal with him.She thought about it long and hard, finally she made an excited sound as if she's hit a jackpot.Immediately Kate saw this, she knew that Emilia must have successfully come up with a plan to solve their misery.“What is the plan?” Kate asked directly, not interested in mincing words.Smiling brightly, she nodded approvingly at how good Kate is. “How did you know?” Emilia asked, more int
Due the recent news about an attempted takeover of the company, the image of Andrew increased in both public and business men's eyes thereby causing an influx of customers ready to give their project to Andrew's company to handle.The stock price of the company increased rapidly without any intention of stopping. After finishing her report, Bella became silent as if waiting for Andrew's response.After hearing the good impact the previous day's event had on the company's image and how it increased the company's worth, he was elated.He grinned as he walked with Bella to the company but kept his composure. ‘No wonder, she waited for him at the front of the company.’ He thought.Andrew took the elevator to his floor, and after getting out of the elevator, Bella said a few words to Andrew and went to her office thereby parting ways with Andrew.Andrew entered his office in no time, ready to start the day's work as he was met by lots of documents to sign that day.Just as he was about to
Emilia was shaken by this sudden burst from James as she wasn't expecting it.He has always condoned her actions without saying much about it and only a few words when it is the most important. She was even more infuriated by this, ‘how dare he stand up for that bastard’ she thought. “Oh, you don't want me to insult him but Kate is also your daughter, didn't you think you are being partial by obviously supporting Andrew over her.” “This is not about support, it's about evidence. It's what you can see.” James said while taking out a document and throwing it at Emilia.Emilia took the document, read it and frowned as the document detailed everything happening at the company since the takeover by Andrew.Although she saw that there were times that crisis befall the company, Andrew always came out on top.As she was about to close the document, she saw the day's event that Kate was talking about, she read it and realized that he had played the person at his own game.The report was goo
On getting to the office, Andrew came out of his car, and went straight to the elevator that he will take to his office.Entering the elevator with his secretary beside him. Suddenly he remembered something he should have done.He took out his phone, opened the call log then dialed a number.After a few beeps, Jacob picked up his phone, without wasting time, Andrew asked the question on his mind, “has the crisis been resolved?” When Jacob heard this, he smiled “Yes, it has.” He replied with an obvious relief in his voice.After hearing that the problem has been resolved successfully, Andrew heaved a sigh of relief. He has been worried about the situation of things.Andrew gave him the details of what happened making Jacob smile bitterly.“I was not expecting it from him, I guess I shouldn't be surprised though.” Jacob Remarked.Andrew hung up the call after exchanging a few words with him.He sighed to himself in relief at how things went that day, lucky for him, his step sister wasn
Seeing the smile on Andrew's face, Richmond wanted to punch straight in the face but he gritted his teeth, “of course not Mr Roger, can't I walk around in this office?”Andrew's expression suddenly changed, “you've tried this action, not only on me but you've done it to be where you are today. I must say you are really good at it, getting all this wealth from someone through contracts, the way you hide is top notch but not just good enough.” Andrew said, looking straight at Richmond. Richmond shivered uncontrollably, he knew Andrew must've found out something about him but he didn't know what he found out. “What do you mean by that?” Richmond said trying to sound like his normal self but he knew staying longer will only lead to his detriment but what could he do. If he ran, he would be caught, but if he did not run, his life would be ruined. In both cases, he had no hope.Seeing that things have turned to this, he thought that begging will probably do. “Oh, you know what I mean v
Immediately Richmond heard this, he became confused by what Andrew said.Thinking Andrew is just bluffing, “oh, which deal did we make other than that Mr Roger?” Je questioned Andrew with the full intention of exposing his bluff.When Andrew heard this, the smile on his face became brighter. “Oh, you don't have to worry about it because I brought it today.” Richmond looked at Andrew's smiling face and frowned, ‘what if ge has something? Wouldn't that be a problem? ’ He thought, making his frown deepen bit by bit.When Lillian saw the situation, she was glad in her heart ‘looks like this Mr Roger really knows what he is doing.’She didn't show any emotion outward but she smiled at herself. ‘Looks like your story will end today,’ she thought, glancing at Richmond in front of her, he stood still, not moving a bit.If anyone see him right now, they will probably think he was standing still because he was caught right at his game, but Richmond still forced his mind to calm down.He looked
With this evidence and obvious transfer of position to Richmond, everyone became worried.They didn't know what this meant for their future.Some started criticizing, “how could he transfer the company like that, if he was tired of the company, he should have said so, why does he have to make this kind of transaction.”There were murmurs in the crowd and loud sounds were heard as people discussed this new turn around in the situation.Clara's frown deepened, she took the contract from Andrew's hand, read it word by word and was sure that what Richmond said was the fact.But when she finished reading the contract, she looked at the signature and found that there was something wrong with the signature.She asked her secretary to get her a document signed by Andrew. In no time, the secretary came with the document. Clara looked at the signature in the document her secretary just gave her and compared it with the contract Richmond gave.After comparing them for a while, she smiled to her
Richmond, a maniac as Lillian would consider him, proved her right with constant beating and non stop abuse. As she thought about these thongs, she suddenly felt short of breath, immediately she brought her head out of the water.Breathing heavily, she finished what she was doing and got out of the bathtub. In no time, she finished dressing up and went to Richmonds place as if she does not, she will suffer for her actions.She prepared and braced herself for what was about to happen. She got out of the house and headed straight to Richmonds mansion without any other thought.She knew there was nothing she could do about the situation she found herself as the only thing she can expect is a savior to come to her rescue.When she got there, Richmond was already waiting for her as she was lost in thought in the bath tub for a long time.“Do you think this is the time you should be here, how dare you stay more than the required time?” He barked at her.Faced by this monster, Lillian bec
