Andrew gestured to Marian to come closer and announced, "Go and deliver the letters to the three managers, and tell them that they have the right to appeal to me tomorrow if my judgment seemed unfair to them." "Yes, boss," the newly promoted lady smiled with excitement as she walked out of Andrew's office. "You won't tell me what you are up to, will you?" Jackson asked. "Why are you curious about my decision? You don't have faith in me, do you?" "Of course, I do. The memory of the first time when I doubt you are still fresh in my memory," Jackson answered back. He fixed his eyes on Andrew, then at the bottle of champagne in his hand, shrugged, gulped down some of the content inside the bottle, belched louder and resumed his speech, "I am just scared that you are making a big mistake by sacking all these people." "Let's forget about work and it's a headache... We are flying to Arkansas City tonight, and you will be able to see your sweetheart tomorrow morning." "You mean Miss Sim
The two occupants of the rusted BMW drove at full speed towards the Elizabethan's villa, and they were just a few kilometres to their destination when Jackson discovered that the car was overheating. "We need to park," Andrew announced. "I can see smoke coming from the car's bonnet." "Can you see why I kicked against driving this car?" Jackson asked. "It may be a minor fault, let's park and check it out." "We have a few kilometres to go. I suggest we managed it down home." "No, Jackson. Driving it in this state is dangerous. What if it exploded?" "It won't, I have driven cars in worse conditions," Jackson answered back and then sighed when Andrew insisted that he park. A moment later, the two gentlemen were out of their car, and after checking the engine, Jackson declared that the fault was major and needed the attention of a mechanic. Andrew brought out his phone and called Mirinda's number, but her phone was switched off, and after some moment of thought, he decided to call
The blue-painted chopper descended on the helipad on top of The palace hotel, and the sound of its blades as it cut into the air boomed louder in the silent night. The journey from Orange County to Arkansas City had only taken an hour by flight, unlike the several hours Andrew and Jackson had spent driving. "Would you like to come down and lodge in a room for the night?" Andrew asked the pilot. "No, don't worry about me. Arkansas City is my home, and I will be going to meet my family and spend the night with them," the tall and handsome man in a white overall gown mumbled. "In that case, try to be back earlier tomorrow. Don't forget we are going back to Orange County as soon as the daybreak," Andrew let out, and then gestured to Jackson and Jasmine to step down the chopper. A young man in a white and blue uniform was waiting for them as they stepped down the stairs, and he bowed to welcome them, and then announced," Welcome ladies and gentlemen, my name is Steven, and I was inst
"You are truly a jerk," Jasmine cried out, stood up, hissed and walked out of the front of the stunned Stevenson, and the whole restaurant became alive with buzz. "This man must be wayward to the extent of trying to put his hand inside a lady's skirt. So bad, even in a public place!" an old man with a glass over his plain face exclaimed. "These kids of nowadays have no manners. What a shame!" His equally aged man let out. Andrew and Jackson were smiling as they walked out of The palace restaurant, and the clattering of Jasmine's shoes on the tiles sounded after them. As expected, their guard was waiting for them as they stepped into the hotel compound, and the young man smiled at the sight of Andrew and let out, "Welcome, Sir. I asked them to clean this Toyota Vensa for you. I hope you like it." "Sure. It's okay," Andrew let out, stretched his hand to collect the car key from the security guard, and then tossed it to Jackson. "Hopped in, guys. It's already late in the night,"
Jackson parked in front of the third flats on the row and then gestured to Andrew and Jasmine to disembark from the car. Moments later, the trio walked toward Moana's flat, and Andrew who was leading them knocked on the door and then grinned as Moana's voice sounded from the inside. "Hello, a moment please." "Is that your mother-in-law's voice?" Jasmine asked. "No. That's Moana's voice. She and her husband are the only members of the O'Connor family that become remorseful of their ill-treatment of me." "I want to see your wife and Mother-in-law... Especially Your wife, I want to know what she possessed that I lacked," Jasmine announced. Andrew was about to reply to Jasmine's statement when the door was pulled open and Moana's head poked out of the room. "Hi, Andrew. Why did you come so late in the night?.. Did you need somewhere to pass the night?"Without waiting for Andrew's reply, Moana held his hand pulled him into the house, and then gestured to his friends to follow her.
As soon as Jasmine saw a strange woman with Moana, she turned towards Andrew and kissed his lips, and it took the shocked man some moment to push her off. Andrea gawked at Andrew, and then at the lady on his thighs, she shrugged, walked closer and seat in the chair facing Andrew. "Please excuse me, I need to talk with her," Andrew announced and then tried to push Jasmine off his leg, but Jasmine nestled on his chest and refused to move. "You can talk like this, honey. I love the warmth of your chest and I don't feel like standing up." Moana who had been ogling at Jasmine as she clung to Andrew asked with a confused look, "Is she your lover?" "Yes, this handsome man belongs to me now. I heard his wife didn't value him so I have taken over," Jasmine answered back before Andrew could utter a word, she turned and peered into Andrew's eyes, and blew another kiss on him. "Did you bring me here to introduce your lover, or did you have important things to discuss with me?" Andrea aske
During their short time inside Moana's house, someone pierced their car tyres with sharp objects, broke all their windscreens and shattered the car windows, and what was left was a wreck of what was parked some moment ago. "Who dare destroy my car?" Andrew asked with an open jaw. "This is insane... Where is our security guard?" Daniel asked, looked around, and then hurried towards the large gate where the security man always napped for the night. "I am sorry, Andrew. I am sure this is the handwork of Mary and Alice... They must be aware that you brought the car here," Moana mumbled, turned towards Andrea's section of the villa and gawked at the dark building. "I bet they off the light, after performing their evil act... Please excuse me, I need to go and inform them that I can see through their veil." Saying this, Moana marched towards Andrea's flat, and the two gentlemen and a lady peeked at each other's faces. "What are we going to do?" Jackson asked with a confused look. He
Miss Simpson arrived half an hour later, and the exhausted Jasmine hopped into the front seat, while Andrew and Jackson hopped in the car's back seat, and Miss Simpson drove off.After some moments of driving, Miss Simpson turned towards Andrew and asked, "What happened to the car you took at the Palace Hotel?" "It was destroyed by some members of the O'Connor family. I suspect it to be the handwork of Madam Alice and Mary." "What the heck! They will need to face our insurance company and explain to them," Miss Simpson announced with a horrific face, she shook her head, hissed and let out, "I won't forgive them for assaulting you." "They were rude, insulting and outright abusive. I agree that they need to be punished for such a grave offence," Jasmine announced from the front seat. "Be kind towards them. Don't forget I bear their names and am also connected to them by marriage," Andrew muttered. "Not this time around. They just destroyed our company's car, and you don't expect m
