Emily's eyes welled up. Has it gotten to an instance that he compares her presence with a pestering flea? She gently went over and sat down on the seat in front of Eddie's desk.
She sniffled and took out a wet tissue to wipe her tears away. "Can't you spare Frede to be with me? Are you so busy that you no longer have Frede to eat? I want us to get to know each other better and our temperament.."
But Eddie had longed to return to work on his computer. He's entire attention was on the computer and didn't seem to hear what Yolando said.
But he heard. He only pretended not to hear. He took his phone and sent a message to his assistant. He would get a takeout and eat it right before Yolanda without as much as inviting her to join him.
Yolanda sat down and watched him working. What kind of a man is Eddie? She'd seen other men pamper their girlfriends and fiancee so lovingly and romantically that sh
Eddie stood up, he didn't mind that Emily was seated with teary eyes. He picked his car key and called the informant "keep an eye on her. I am on my way already and you should know which direction she's taking,"Eddie declared. He walked towards the door, before turning back to Emily and said "You may remain trapped here for hours if I step out of this office leaving you behind" He would lock the office and only his fingerprints can unlock it. He didn't know why she remained seated after he finished taking his lunch. Yolanda stood up and walked out of the door, taking the same elevator with Eddie, she passed him a side glance and the latter remained expressionless. As soon as the elevator opened, Eddie stepped out of the elevator he was walking towards his car. His bodyguards were following and got into the car as soon as he did. The informant called again and said Jennifer had driven off from he
Rosa also said they didn't mean to be mean to her or let her kids be taken away from her. But from the Frede they stepped into Agatha's apartment, they didn't see the boys nor did they hear their voices. Rosa looked around before asking "Where's Fred and Lee?" Jennifer sighed. She bit her lower lip trying to prevent her tears from running down her cheeks. "Eddie took them away," Jennifer said. She leaned her head on the sofa and looked lost. Josh and Rosa exchange glances. "What do you mean Eddie took them away? Didn't he say you should have them for 24hours?" Josh asked. "He took them away from me. How can he just take my kids away like that?"Jennifer said, feeling really offended. "What did you do?" Josh asked.Josh wants to know what happened. Eddie said it before a few of them in his office that she can have the kids for 24 hours. He can't suddenly go ba
He looked from one to the other. He doesn't know who Fred is and who Lee is between them. They are identical. "I am fine", " I am fine" the boys answered uniformly. That was when the grandparents knew their names were Fred and Lee. "Eehhm. Who's Fred and who's Lee?" Julia asked.Looking from one to the other? "I am Fred" Fred answered from his left. "I am Lee" Lee answered the from his right. "Ok, Fred here and Lee here" Julia confirms. He looked at them and still knew he would soon get confused again. Once they stood up and they were not in his right and left position, he would mix it up again. "How can I differentiate you out there?" Julia asked. He didn't spare anyone a glance, not even Eddie who was watching and listening to Julia calmly. "Only our mummy knows. Maybe you ask her" Lee answered. No one can differentiate between them except their mummy and they don't know how s
Then an arranged marriage set in. She married a man she never had any feelings for but to please her stepmother who said she wants nothing else for her than to be happy. Her so-called husband was having affairs with her sister and then they set up. She became pregnant and she was courageous enough to birth the babies. Now when she felt everything was going to be fine, a man suddenly came up and took her boys away. Her life was so empty. What is she going to do next? Eddie is her boss and he's more powerful than her. She doesn't have the resources to contend with him in Court nor is she buoyant enough to take them away from her. Jennifer was immersed in her world of isolation and didn't know she's to submit a plan to Eddie's office. Eddie called the secretary and asked the chief designer to be summoned to his office with her plan. Jennifer's official line st
Her eyes became teary. She looked out of the window, not wanting Julia to see her tears again. She only wants to see her boys. " I have lived with them for over three years now and practically got addicted to them. But your brother just took them away leaving me to live solo" Agatha explained. Julia saw her sniffling and listened to her. He felt she was not feeling happy. Her present mood was different from the vibrant one she used to have before this whole issue came up. "I understand how you feel Agatha. But you went the extreme yesterday when you slapped him. Eddie has never been slapped by anyone in his life. You need to apologise to him first and when you feel he has forgiven you, then talk to him about the kids and hear what he feels" Clara advised. "I will not apologise to him. Do you know what the effect of what he did to me four years ago cost me?" Agatha blurted out.
She stood up quickly and went to her door locking it firmly to prevent anyone from coming in.She returned and pushed Eddie violently.But the latter seemed to have anticipated what she was going to do and hence, gave her a shoulder."Go ahead Eddie, kill me at once and end it. Claim the children and tell them their mother was murdered by you.That way, you will have them to yourself alone and not bother to share the custody with anyone else.What am I living for? What meaning will my life bring me?My life got a New direction when I gave birth to those kids. They gave me reasons to embrace life again and found a purpose for living.They are my only family, my companion and soulmate.You not only took them away from me, but threatened to severed us forever!You may be rich Eddie, but you are not t
"I said, you may leave!"he ordered and Agatha gave a slight nod. She turned back and walked out of the office. She returned to her office and soon took all her belongings into a big paper bag and went away at the close of the day. Few hours after the day's work, Eddie was going to leave but decided to give a glance at the plan. When he opened the first page, it was a letter he saw. He squinted and picked it up. His eyes became cold when he read the contents of the letter…Resignation letter! Agatha left the company? On what basis? She left because of him? He went through the resignation letter reading every line several Fredes. No wonder she insisted that he go through the plan and see if there are places she should correct. Eddie sighed. Why does she detest him so much? He had never done anything to destroy her or tarnish her image. If he had found her th
It will amount to him ruining his own future happiness and hers as well. Two lives living as a couple before the outside world but a complete stranger to each other. "I asked you a question, Eddie," Cheng Li demanded. Instead of his son answering his question, he remained stilled like someone who was lost in his world of fantasies. " Nothing special dad,"Eddie answered simply. Nothing special because things are the way they have always been. "I was told she came over to the company to invite you for lunch and you completely shunned her despite telling you ahead of Frede?"Cheng Li asked. Eddie had never mentioned that he was going out for lunch, dinner or any kind of outing with Emily. Since they were engaged, he should always let her be in his company. They are supposed to go places together and let people see them in love with each other. "Yes. She called me and I told
