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
Andrew got back home that day with thoughts. He couldn't really get over it all.Although he wasn't scared of losing the contract, he worried about getting that man on his side.He could see through those words of his. The man was trying to keep everyone off his back just to be able to play fair.Andrew could see it, he needed him to be on his side which was rather very difficult to do.While he was still thinking, his phone made a beeping sound. Andrew hissed, considering he had been so distracted from what he was thinking about.He peeked into his phone and the headline he saw made him quickly open the message.Andrew ran his eyes throughout the message, “this is good!” He said with a smirk on his face.In his phone was everything he needed to know about Jane. He poised at that moment, “so this girl actually wanted to fool me. She even used a fake internet profile. She is kinda wise. I will make her regret every bit of what she had planned,” he thought in his head.While the thought
Andrew glanced at her, “are you desperate to that extent?” He intentionally asked, passing some message to her.Jane sighed. She felt uncomfortable with that question. “I feel a little dizzy, I want to go get some rest,” she said, standing up to that effect.Andrew didn't bother saying a thing. He watched her leave the dining room. He raised his head and straightened his face. He drank the little juice left in his cup.Jane got inside her room, “ouh!!! That was a close one,” she heaved out a heavy breath just for her to reduce her palpitation.Andrew stood on his feet, he walked inside his room to lay his head since it was late already, but then, he remembered something.Andrew picked up his phone, he placed a call across, “hello!” He said to the hacker.“Your call is getting frequent, Mr Andrew! What is the problem?” He asked him.“There is a project I am after, I want to know who the person is,” he said to him.The hacker widened his eyes. “Do you have his picture and his name?” He
“I have a project of over 90 million dollars. I am the owner of the Jin empire. I would love to hand this project over to you, because I am busy at the moment and all I need now is a person that can commit to it. Are you that person?” That was the whole message.. Maxwell didn't do anything out of the ordinary before he got her attention.At that spot, Jane started thinking about it. She realized that opportunity may only come once in her entire years on earth. Jane knew she wasn't in any way loyal to Andrew. So, there was nothing really holding her back.After further thoughts, she replied to the message, “yes, I am here.” She typed it and sent it back to him.Jane received the next SMS with full details on what to do. Jane followed it and soon, they started requesting for her live location.Jane was trapped at this point. She couldn't think out of the box. After proper evaluation, she saw it was harmless. She turned on her live location after a lot of convention. That was the mist
Having the door closed behind him, he walked excellently to the dining room.On getting there, he was surprised he didn't see Jane in the dining room. “Where could Jane have been?” He thought about it for a while, but he just couldn't place it together.At that moment, there was a steward hanging around that area. “Hey!” He called out.The steward rushed to meet Andrew. “Is Jane not home yet?” He asked her.The steward thought about it for a second. “I can't really give an answer to that, but I am very sure I haven't seen her step into this out after she had gone out today,” she explained to him.Andrew exhaled. He didn't flinch but at the same time, he wanted to know what was going on.“Let us not base our thoughts on ideas. Go check her room,” he told the steward.“Okay! Young master, I will be back,” he excused him immediately.Andrew widened his eyes. “I hope it is not what i am thinking!” Andrew knew how difficult it would be to retrieve her If she was kidnapped.He hoped and pra
24 hours later.Andrew opened his eyes from a heavy sleep. He wasn't tired, because there was nothing he was doing.He had this sharp pain run through his body due to a long sleep, more like a hangover from a hard drink.He stepped down from his bed with a slight body stretch. He walked to the bathroom and he had his body washed.On coming out, his phone started ringing, Andrew reached for his phone. He discovered it was his father.“Hello!” He said with a loud voice.“Hello! Son, how are you faring over there?” He asked him.He sighed. “I am completely fine, father! How is your side over there?” He asked without an inch of excitement.“My side is perfectly fine. I just want to check on you, so you won't feel abandoned,” he said to him.At that same minute, something came to his mind. “Thank you, father! But I will need your help!” He said to him.His father was surprised. “My help! What is the problem?” He echoed.“Do you have a private investigator that can work with me here?” He as
Andrew sent his coordinates to him. Soon, he kept his phone and he remained silent.The bodyguard that was asked to stop him started mocking him.“As it seems no one is coming to your aid. What a shame!” He echoedAndrew didn't bother saying a word. He had this cold and hard gaze. While he was just watching them, Maxwell felt that moment was his best time to shine. He walked out of there at once.Not quite long, he walked into his presence.“Mr Andrew, I guess you're stuck here!” He said with a grin.Andrew swallowed the saliva in his mouth. “I am not stuck, I am just watching you,” he said to him.Maxwell exhaled. “Still acting like you don't care!” He echoed. Andrew kept watching him without saying a word.“When I heard about you, cowardice wasn't added to your amiable traits. But now, I can't believe you can't even say a word,” he said to him.Andrew smirked. “I am just looking at the rate of your foolishness,” he replied to him.Maxwell's face brightened with shock. The shot of
Andrew left there victoriously. When he got home, he stepped down from his car. He walked into the mansion.“You are welcome, Young master!” One of his stewards welcomed him.Andrew exhaled. “Thank you!” He said without really halting. He walked into his room at once.Getting there, what happened began to replay in his mind one after the other. He began to see everything in his head.He wondered how he would have been ridiculed if his men didn't show up at that time. “Damn!” He knew Maxwell would make a mockery of him.“I need to take steps!” He thought in his head.Due to what happened, Andrew decided to take steps that would get him the project he wanted even if it was by force.Andrew was bent on not allowing him to win.While he was still thinking, Rio had gotten into the country.Soon, Andrew's phone began to ring out. That distracted him from his thoughts.He checked his phone and when he saw it was Rio, he picked up.“Hello!” He said to him.“Hello sir! I am in town. Where shou
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
