Dalia took a sip from her drink. "Trying to get us out of this mess. Theodore admitted to having a hand in trying to ruin our business." Dalia said taking a cigarette."Oh so that's why you want him out of the picture." Yeager chuckled. He put his hands around Dalia's body and kissed her neck. "Let me make you forget your troubles." He whispered into her ears making Dalia shudder. Theodore walked into his home which Janelle was residing temporarily."Why are you here?" Janelle asked."Nothing, I just wanted to talk to someone.""Are you okay?" Janelle asked."Am fine." Theodore replied. "You don't look so good. That man, he was the man you thought was your father isn't he?" Janelle asked."Yes." He nodded. "Is he the reason you're sad?" Janelle asked."No, a part of me doesn't even feel a thing about trying to ruin the business while a part of me... A part of me thinks am wrong." Theodore said."Have you talked to your father about it?" Janelle asked. "No, but am pretty sure wh
Zoe, was an arms dealer. Well she wasn't always one considering the fact that she was just a few years older than Theodore. She was to inherit the business from her father and like her father she had an unwavering loyalty to Charles and his family. That day at the bar she only went there to gather information for Charles. Naturally she had no dealings with people like Yeager. Her reputation precedes her and she was mostly feared by all. Those who knew her identity dared not mess with her cause they knew what the end game would be. It wasn't like her father didn't have a son. He did but he believes his daughter was the best candidate to take over from him and she had proven herself worthy."How's your father?" Charles asked. "He's okay, I wonder why he decided to go to Mexico for some holiday." Zoe replied nonchalantly."He's busy there." Charles said. "Hm, I just hope my brother isn't leading him on some futile adventure." Zoe sighed."Your father might just have his head if th
Frank was a bit confused and surprised at the same time. Why would Emilia want him to convince Janelle and for what?"Emilia babe, am kinda confused right now what did you say I should do?" Frank asked just to be sure he heard her right."I need you to convince Janelle." Emilia repeated. "Whatever about? You know she hates me now don't you?" Frank asked. "Regardless, I don't care how you do it I just want you to ask her to come to my father's party tonight so I can put her in her place." Emilia said coldly. "I'll do my best, but seriously Emilia is it really necessary? If your mom couldn't convince her whatever made you think I would be able to convince her?" Frank asked. "At one point in time she loved you." Emilia replied. "Am glad you used the term loved because am sure she hates me now. And what makes you think she would even answer my calls?" Frank asked with a sigh."You better do as I ask daddy." Emilia purred. "I know you like it when I call you daddy. If you successfull
"Send me that stupid address. Am on my way." Theodore yelled disconnecting the call. He rushed up the stairs to change his clothes.He wondered what Janelle was thinking that made her go to that party. She knew they all didn't like her so what was she trying to prove by going there? ~ At The Dawson's Mansion ~Janelle walked into her step father's house, it's been a while since she's been here. And her memories of this house weren't so pleasing. She heard elegant music play and she knew the party must have started. She walked in dressed in the most beautiful dress she has ever had. It was a gift from Theodore, something from Karina's collection. Everyone's head turned when they saw Janelle walking in. Emilia who had her arms around Frank was talking to someone when she noticed the person was no longer listening but instead was looking at another direction.Her eyes nearly popped out when she saw Janelle's dress, it was a million times prettier than hers. And this made her angry
"I know, we've been friends for a while." Hugh nodded."Exactly, and if you know me you'd know am a man of my principal and I although I like discipline and order that doesn't mean I'll force my ideals down someone else's throat I hope you understand?" Charles asked with a smile. "Yes I do." Hugh nodded. "Theodore and I haven't really had that father and son bond. I wasn't always a part of his life, so now I don't want to be the one to decide who he wants to spend the rest of his life with." Charles said. "I understand." "I'll see you around Hugh. Like I said I have another engagement. I hope you find a suitable husband for your daughter." Charles said getting up to leave. ~ Back at the party ~ Emilia was so angry Janelle called Frank trash, indirectly she was insulting her saying she was trashy. "You little..." Emilia cursed."What? I was only telling the truth and your boyfriend knows it too." Janelle said coldly. "Janelle can we talk in private for a minute?" Vanessa asked
Theodore dragged Janelle into his room and he glared at her. "What the hell were you thinking going to your step father's house? Are you trying to get yourself raped?" Theodore asked his anger evident."I... It was Frank, he called and said Emilia wanted me... There and... And I got so pissed and so I... I decided to attend..." Janelle stuttered. Theodore observed Janelle and saw her cheeks were flushed red. He frowned and touched her forehead."Janelle are you okay?" Theodore asked. "It's so hot." Janelle said using her hands to fan herself. "Hey, you're burning up do you have a fever?" Theodore asked with concern his anger completely forgotten."No, I just feel... I just feel..." Janelle stuttered. She walked closer to Theodore and before he knew it she kissed him forcefully.Theodore was surprised at the complete change of character but he figured she was drugged. As much as he would love to continue he had to stop.He pulled away from Janelle."Hey come with me." Theodore said
"No, you're right I acted like an idiot." Janelle sighed. "I didn't mean to yell, I was just a bit pissed. What if I hadn't found out you weren't home? I came to check on you yesterday. I wanted to take you out..." Theodore stopped and sighed. "Am sorry." "No, it's fine. I know you're an adult. And maybe you're right I shouldn't impose rules on you. You're old enough to make your own decisions. You know it took me great restraint not to take you last night." Theodore said with a sigh. "And I just got a bit jealous and upset thinking what if you were at someone else's mercy last night. I didn't want to think about it at all." Theodore said."You were jealous?" Janelle asked surprised. "Forget that, get changed. It's time for breakfast. But promise you wouldn't go to your step father's place without my permission." Theodore glared. "I won't I promise.""I want to go to my room." Janelle said. "Go ahead." Theodore replied with a sigh.He couldn't believe he just said that, what wa
After Charles and Earl discussed what they wanted Theodore saw someone that caught his attention. A woman, her face was covered but he could swear he recognizes the woman's eyes. 'Who is she? She looks so familiar.' Theodore thought. But where? He wanted to say something but she was gone. "Theodore, our business is finished here we better get going." Charles said. "Okay." Theodore nodded but his attention was still at the place where the girl disappeared to. He left with Charles non the less when he decided to check his phone. Then he remembered the footage from the bar. "Are you okay son?" Charles asked as he noticed Theodore's divided attention."Yeah dad am fine." Theodore nodded. He was wondering what the girl was doing there? Was he wrong or was it just someone with the same facial similarities as the one from the bar. His mind was clouded but he couldn't tell his dad about it. ~ The Next Day ~ Theodore was busy with his work as usual. When someone's image flashed thro
