The day ended. The next day. The morning brightness Illuminated the sky. The morning birds wouldn't stop chirping while the cars wouldn't stop plying the road.Andrew opened his eyes after a very long sleep. It was a new day with lots of hope and a new ambition. He looked at the ceiling, this wasn't the normal ceiling that could be counted, this is more like a POP. The latest ceiling design.Practically, Andrew wasn't actually paying attention to the ceiling, he had other things he was attending to in his mind. His mind was so filled with a lot of thought and he wouldn't want to jeopardize that with unnecessary things.After a few minutes in bed, he stepped down from his bed. Having his body cracked due to joint pain, he walked into the bathroom after he had removed his clothings.He turned on the shower and he went under it. Allowing the water to run down his body, he was just there enjoying it.After a few minutes, he went to his room. He walked to the wardrobe. He picked a quality
Andrew wondered what the question would be. Her facial expression was depicting something clever. “Go ahead,” he replied to her.Jane let out some air from her nostrils. She licked her lips and adjusted herself on the chair. “What about the oil project? Have you gotten it?” She asked him.Andrew looked at the intent she used to ask that question. When he saw that the intent wasn't to be suspected, then he replied, “not yet. I hope I get it,” he said to her.Jane's eyes winked several times. “I hope you get it too. At least that will be okay for all the stress we have gone through,” she said to him.Andrew widened his eyes. An idea came to him and he was all about a question that came to his heart due to what Jane said. “Miss Jane! I want to ask you a question,” he let those words out of his lips.Jane swallowed the saliva in her mouth. She wondered what the whole seriousness was all about. “Go ahead!” She replied to him.“What will you gain from all this?” He asked her with his ey
“Let me call you back, Miss Bella!” He said to her. Andrew had to hold Bella's call, he picked up another incoming call, “hello. What is it?” He asked with a harsh tone.“I am sorry for calling at this time, sir. But there is a problem,” he informed him.Andrew swallowed the saliva in his mouth. He wasn't scared, he was only curious. “Cut to the chase,” he said to him.“Okay! I heard that the president wants to close down your company, because the company was involved in some kind of scandal. it was all over the internet,” he informed him.Andrew didn't get it. It was as if he was lost in the conversation. “I don't understand. What are you getting at?” He asked him.“I am not getting at anything, sir. I am only informing you of what is going on. I will be off now,” he said to him.Andrew hung up the call. He returned Bella's call. “So, you were saying?”“A man came to visit today. He introduced himself as one government agent. He dropped a letter with me. The letter was an official o
Andrew wasn't taken by surprise. He knew he would be given the oil project and that was because he had gotten where to hold the man in charge.If not for his private investigator, he wouldn't have been able to bag it.He painstakingly went through the whole document and when he was done, he lifted his head and heaved a sigh of relief.He picked up the pen on the table and he started appending his signature.When he was done, he raised his head, “I am done.”“Congratulations, Mr Andrew. It was an honor giving you this project. I hope you won't let anything flop,” he said.“Trust me. Nothing is going to happen. I will take my leave now,” he said to him.“Okay!”Andrew took his leave. The oil project he had been after for a very long time was his. Amidst the whole people against him, he could finally get it.But he didn't know that what was coming might be bigger than the project.Not quite long, he got to his car. Finally! Andrew can now go back home. He had been around for some days no
Jane left her phone ringing. “He has already gotten the contract and there is nothing I can do about it. Once I get home I will let him know,” she thought in her head.Jane walked into the bathroom to freshen up herself since it was a new day. She realized she had a bad breath and so, washing off herself was paramount.She removed her clothings and switched on the tap. She let the water drizzle down her body after it was turned on.When she was done, she walked out of the bathroom and had her body covered with nice clothings.She walked out of her room without her cell phone. She had something in mind which she wanted to fulfill.Andrew opened his eyes after a short sleep. It took him some time to actually have a great sleep since his phone was busy ringing and he couldn't ignore all of them He stepped down from his bed and he walked into the bathroom at once. He freshened up before highlighting from there.Getting back, he saw that the light of his phone was on. Exhaustively frustra
Andrew looked at her in the face. “I only need money to get you arrested and from there you would be tortured until you spill the truth.”Jane's countenance fell. She inhaled some air and glanced at him. Jane saw that if she hardened herself and still confronted him, it would be a problem from her side and with the way Andrew spoke, he wouldn't hesitate to get her arrested. She went on her knees, “I am sorry, please let me go. I promise never to show my face again,” she was sober minded. Andrew exhaled. “I am not that cruel. I will give you the opportunity to take to your heels. If by chance I ever set my eyes on you. Miss Jane, it won't be funny,” he dissected those words.Penetrating Jane's ear, she stood on her feet. “Thank you.” She walked to the wardrobe and she started packing her things. Andrew watched her for some minutes before he walked out of her room.“Finally, I have gotten rid of her in a pleasant way…” his face molded with a dark smile. “Young master, good morning.
With a bright smile hovering all over his face he approached Andrew. “Welcome, son.” He gave him a warm embrace.Andrew's face grimaced with a light smile. It had been a long time since he saw his father, he was only hearing his voice over the phone. Now that they met, he was more than happy so his face was bright.James released him from his embrace and patted his shoulder, “how have you been doing, son,” he asked outrightly.Andrew exhaled remembering what he passed through staying in that mansion. It was not the mansion but Jane made the whole trip uncomfortable.“I am good, dad. Although I have a little hard time,” he said to him.James widened his eyes. He was curious about his last statement. “A little hard time?” He echoed. James seemed concerned about the Clause.Andrew glanced at him. “Don't worry, father, it's nothing serious. I had a great time bagging the contract,” he spelt it out of his lips with lots of courage to make his father understand he was speaking the truth.J
James Roger sighed. “I am happy with those statement of yours. Do everything in your power to get the company out of his grasp. You must be careful, he is powerful,” he expressed himself Andrew widened his eyes. He nodded his head. “Something baffles me…” he spoke out of confusion.James was curious. “What is it that baffled you?” He asked at once, expecting him to spill it out.He exhaled. “I received a text message just before you stepped in. Let me show you.” He picked up his phone and immediately opened the text.“Have a look,” he extended his phone to him.James collected it. He read the message. “Why am I perceiving that this is a trap?” He put out that question in the air.Andrew was taken aback by those words. “I don't know if it's a trap or not. All I know is that the person is trying to use this to get to me,” he said to himJames sighed and rolled his eyes with his eyeball. “This is hard to figure out. Don't do anything unless you receive further messages from the same per
