Eddie stood by the window of his small apartment, staring out at the bustling city below. His mind was racing, thoughts swirling like a tempest in his head. Jennifer's call had shaken him to the core with the news about Frank's audacious plan to acquire their father's company. It was late evening, but Eddie knew he had to sort out his thoughts and confront this issue head-on.With a determined sigh, he pulled out his phone and dialed Jennifer's number. The phone rang several times before Jennifer finally picked up."Hello?" Her voice sounded strained, carrying the weight of the news she had just shared with Eddie."It's me, Jen," Eddie said, his voice calm but firm. "You mentioned Frank's proposal to buy Dad's company. Tell me everything."There was a brief silence on the other end of the line before Jennifer began explaining the details. Frank, their father's former business partner, had approached Jennifer with a substantial offer to purchase their family's company. The offer was tem

Eddie stood in the bustling foyer of the factory, surrounded by the hum of machinery and the rhythmic clinks of metal. He had just completed his orientation and was now ready to meet his colleagues and settle into his new role. As he adjusted his collar nervously, a voice cut through the ambient noise, catching him off guard."Hi," the greeting came from a woman who had approached him with a warm smile. She was elegant, with a grace that seemed to command attention effortlessly. Eddie blinked in surprise, recognizing her immediately as Mrs. Lorraine, the wife of his boss."There were two things he noticed now: the woman's beauty and the kindness she exuded. Eddie swallowed hard, trying to remain calm and not show his nervousness.""Hello, Ma'am, I'm Eddie," Eddie managed, his voice steadier than he felt. He bowed slightly out of habit, unsure of how to properly address his boss's wife."Don't be too formal with me, Eddie," Mrs. Lorraine chuckled lightly, her voice like a soothing melod

Eddie stood amidst the clatter of the factory floor, his hands slightly greasy from handling the machinery. It was mid-morning, and the routine tasks of the day were in full swing when he heard a familiar voice that sent a jolt of surprise through him."Is he diligent, perhaps because he just moved here?"Eddie turned to find Mrs. Lorraine, his boss's wife, approaching with purpose, carrying two glasses of what appeared to be coffee. Her presence commanded attention, and Eddie could feel the curious gazes of his colleagues upon them."Ah, Ma'am! Good morning!" Eddie greeted, instinctively bowing respectfully. His mind raced to understand why Mrs. Lorraine had singled him out in such a public manner.The woman's sharp eyes swept over the factory floor, taking note of the employees who had paused their work to acknowledge her presence. Her expression turned slightly cynical as she addressed the gathering."I just want to talk to Eddie. For those whose names are not Eddie, please continue

Eddie had always prided himself on maintaining a professional demeanor at work, but when Lorraine, his boss's wife, approached him with an unusual request, he couldn't help but feel a mix of curiosity and apprehension. Lorraine had asked Eddie to accompany her for some errands and had sweetened the deal with the promise of USD 200. Eddie, who could use the extra cash, agreed.The day started off innocently enough. Lorraine and Eddie visited a few high-end stores, with Lorraine purchasing various luxury items. Eddie carried the bags, staying silent and focused on the task at hand. However, as the afternoon turned into evening, Lorraine suggested they stop by a club for some drinks.Eddie hesitated but agreed, thinking it would be a brief visit. As they entered the dimly lit club, the loud music and vibrant atmosphere immediately set Eddie on edge. He followed Lorraine to a secluded booth where she ordered a round of drinks. "Relax, Eddie," Lorraine said, her tone light and carefree. "I

Eddie woke up to the soft light of dawn filtering through the curtains of the luxurious bedroom. He rubbed his eyes and glanced at the clock on the bedside table. Panic surged through him when he saw the time. He was already late for work. Jumping out of bed, he hurriedly dressed, trying to be as quiet as possible to avoid waking Lorraine.But it was too late. Lorraine stirred, her eyes fluttering open as she looked up at him with a sleepy smile. "Good morning, Eddie," she purred, stretching languidly on the bed."Good morning, Lorraine," Eddie replied, his voice tense. "I really need to go. I'm late for work, and I'm worried about what will happen if your husband finds out."Lorraine laughed softly and sat up, her silk nightgown slipping off one shoulder. "Relax, Eddie. I already told Will that I was going to my family's house for a few days. He's completely clueless."Eddie's heart pounded in his chest. Despite Lorraine's reassurances, the thought of her husband discovering their ill

But while Eddie got in, Julia arrived at the company as well. As he stepped into the lobby, he saw the boys, the adorable twins he kept thinking about and falling asleep over. "Hi, uncle Julia is here!" Julia announced his arrival and the boys stood up and rushed over to him with their sturdy feet. He squatted and hugged the both of them at the same Frede. He planted a featherlight kiss on their chubby chin before holding their hands and leading them to his office. The secretary assigned to look after the boys smiled and said nothing when Clara took the boys to his office. ``Listen President Li, the boy's mother is my friend. I have been dribbling her and couldn't tell her where her Sons are. I have to leave with them, so that they can start going to school. It's getting late for school already" Josh pleaded. " I quite understand you doctor Josh. But w

"Is Jennifer your friend that you've been talking about?"Clara asked and Josh said yes. Jennifer turned out to be Eddie's one night lover. His brother had never been the same after that night with her. He had worried himself sick, trying to locate and find her. He had to involve his parents who talked with him and persuade him to let go. If they were destined to meet again they would surely meet. But if otherwise, he shouldn't hurt himself because of a woman somewhere who might have nursed her wounds and go ahead with her life. "Jennifer went through hell after that night with you Eddie. When she realized she was pregnant, it was like the earth should suddenly have a crack so she can hide there forever.."Josh said. Eddie was quiet. He knew he hurt her especially when he forced himself into her and discovered she was a pure woman. He wanted to be responsible for her but never found her again.

"Please Jennifer. Let's talk amicably. My brother is not that kind of a person. There's definitely a mix up somewhere that made the both of you fall vicFred"Clara was sermonizing her. "I will sue you and get restraining orders against you"Agatha threatened. Josh held her tight and started talking in a very low tone to her. Only she heard what Josh was saying. She was momentarily calm. And Josh let her go. Turning to Eddie "Now, where are my kids?" she asked. She stared at Eddie and the latter's face was like freezing her. His eyes were emanating a compressed aura and have really turned red. "I won't say anything to you here because I still have a bit of respect for you for the kids sake. Somethings are better kept as secret between two people But know that it wasn't only you who suffered loss that night. I expect to meet a proper woman but I don't know what to classify you as.
