Karina bit her lower lip she didn't know exactly what to say to Theodore he might be upset she began dating Derrick his friend without telling him. And it might not end well for both parties and at the same time she doesn't want to lie to her brother. "Am waiting, are you working a math in your brain to answer a simple question?" Theodore asked. "What no!" Karina said immediately."Well then answer my question." "Actually... To be honest..." Karina stammered."You do know using the word to be honest means you're about making up a story right? Tell me the truth and I might just spare both of you." Theodore said."You're not some emperor." Karina said with a frown. "Oh really?" Theodore asked."Okay, I'll tell you the truth. He is my boyfriend." Karina admitted."What?" Theodore asked surprised."Yes, he is my boyfriend. Am sorry I didn't tell you.""Your boyfriend? How long has this been going on... And wait... Why didn't... Those stupid guards I asked them to..." Theodore said a
Albert was so upset Robert yelled at him at the meeting. Everything wasn't going in his favor lately and it was really upsetting to him.First he abducted Karina he was about to have her. He was so close to claiming her but that stupid Derrick had to meddle he hasn't actually gotten his revenge for that just yet. And his head still hurts, he was lucky Harry found him when he did else his situation might be more that just pain.And worse, Nathalie was trying to get back together with Theodore behind his back. She was supposed to be his girlfriend but she was going to betray him just like that? Well he was going to get back at his father first before thinking of something else."Albert, I do have your vote for the meeting right?" Robert asked. "Of course." Albert said with a fake smile. "Good." Robert said walking out of his office.He tried to convince some other people but it was almost time for the meeting and he had to return to the conference room."Well am glad you all return
Violet turned to face Robert. She didn't want to talk about her late friend but Robert was pushing it and she had to express herself too. She guessed it was time to pour out her pent up anger. "Yes she did. And so what? Theodore wasn't your son and whose fault is it?" Violet asked. "You're blaming me?" Robert asked. "Yes, yes am blaming you for everything every tragedy that befell my best friend was because of you. You know if there is truly a next life I hope she comes for the sole purpose of killing you." Violet half yelled. "You were such a mean and immoral man. And am glad those videos were made viral so people can see how cheap you are and that my best friend was lied against." Violet said. "After everything that you did too her you had the nerve to call her a lose woman on TV? I didn't want to speak because I know you were doing it for the company. But if you had any decency you would have told the truth that you were the reason why that happened to your late wife.
Karina smiled back at Theodore. Theodore grabbed a glass of juice. "So what about you son?" Kendra asked and Theodore nearly choked on his drink. "Mom we talked about this. I don't have a girlfriend." Theodore said. "Really? Son, I know it was weird your break up with Nathalie. I heard from your dad." Kendra said."I don't want to talk about that mom. And I didn't know dad told you about that." Theodore said with a sigh."If that's what's making you shut your heart...""No, am fine. And I haven't given up on love just yet." Theodore said cutting his mother. "What about that secretary girl?" Karina asked."Can we not talk about her." Theodore said. "Who is that?" Kendra asked. "Just a friend mom. Anyway Brantley enterprise has agreed to sell the business off to the highest bidder." Theodore said."That's good. Am really glad they came to that decision it's makes your plans easier." Kendra said."But they wouldn't sell to you." Karina asked. "Who knows? Anyway let's just eat our
"Yes, what is it Violet?" Dalia asked. "I can see you've gotten cocky." Violet scoffed."Albert could you excuse us for a minute?" Dalia asked. "Okay mom, are you sure you'd be okay?" Albert asked. "Yes. I'll be fine." Dalia nodded with a smile and Albert left both ladies. "What do you really want Violet?" Dalia asked."I know you were the one who leaked Theodore's true identity to Robert." Violet said. "So? Doesn't Robert deserve to know the truth? That the child he has been raising wasn't his?" Dalia asked. "You know I wonder how you got to get that information?" Violet asked."Am very resourceful. And it's a good thing I was at the right place at the right time." Dalia said with a smile. ~ Flashback ~ Four Years Ago Kendra was in a restaurant waiting for her best friend, Violet. It's been a while since the duo met to talk. Kendra had been drinking red wine before Violet's arrival. "Kendra!" Violet almost screamed and Kendra hugged her tightly. "Hey, I know that look, wh
"Is it?" Violet asked with a smirk on her face. "Yes son, everything is okay. Violet and I were just reminiscing old times." Dalia said glaring slightly at Violet."You two know each other?" Albert asked surprised.He didn't know his mother knew Violet all he knows was his mother and Kendra had a history not that Dalia explained in full details what this history was. "It's a long story." Dalia replied trying to avoid the conversation."Yeah, that's right Dalia tell your son who I really am. And everything that you've done." Violet said. "Son, let's go, our tea would get cold."Dalia said in a hurry leaving with Albert and Violet scoffed. 'I would find out what you did to my best friend you bitch. I know you had something to do with it cause you're the only one with a motive. Robert got married to you shortly after. I know you wanted Robert to divorce Kendra but he didn't want to. I don't know why seeing he had nothing to gain by staying with someone he doesn't love. I would find o
~ Two Days Later ~ Albert couldn't wait to finalize the deal and listen to Kyle's terms. This was it, this was his breakthrough. After this he would start his own company. Robert walked into the conference room with a dark face.Of course, since everyone in the board room or at least majority have already given up on the company there's nothing else he could do other than sit and watch. He wanted to see how his son would handle the issue. Albert walked into the board room and soon most of the shareholders walked in as well including Violet.Well unlike her best friend, she was interested in business and that was why she is a shareholder at the company. Since Brantley Enterprise was a merge between Robert's family and Kendra's most shareholders still retained their position even after the merge.And that was how Violet got a share in the company. Her father once owned shares at the company owned by Kendra's parents and that was how she inherited the shares from her father. She h
"Well Mr Brantley and Albert here doesn't want to sell the company to Theodore because they have a history." One of the board members said. "Actually his terms aren't right. We don't like his terms so no matter how much he is offering we wouldn't sell the company to him." Albert chipped in. "Okay, so have you all made the decision is it a yes?" Kyle asked. "We'll get back to you Mr Miller." Robert said. "Mr Brantley, I detest waiting. It just shows people am doing business with aren't ready and capable." Kyle said coldly. "We'll just review your deal with our lawyers, I believe we have that right don't we?" Robert asked."Of course, but I need that done by tomorrow. The sales keep going down every single day and I don't want to buy a business that wouldn't earn me more than what I paid for. So goodbye." Kyle said walking away with his secretary. "I don't understand why you had to talk about the lawyers Robert?" Luke asked. "Yeah." Another board member nodded. "Do you all trust
