Chapter 87Lydia saw fear in Sean when she threw the posters away, she believed what Jared said and called Sean incompetent, she did not stop there, she walked to him and stepped on his hand with her heel. Anger surged in Sean and stood up to slap her, his fingers left a map on her cheek, and he threatened that if she tried anything funny, she would find herself locked up. Shivers ran down her spine and her eyes became red, she got angry that Sean raised his hand on her, for three years she had been with Lucas, and he had never laid his finger on her not to talk of slapping her. She thought about the men she had been meeting after leaving him, she had met a womanizer and a liar. She felt her life was crumbling. Why would he run after an ordinary poster if he was the chairman? She thought she had overstepped her boundary by hitting him with her heel, she wouldn't be able to ask him for details of the new prodigal chairman who didn't know how to spend his money.She felt embarrassed b
Chapter 88Mrs Blake received a call from the chairman of Philla Group, he apologized for what he had caused them and was ready to return everything he had taken from their business back. He did not do this because he had repented, he had heard that DMS company had gotten support from Maxwell and Gourment Harvest company who had been his backbone had lost his support from Maxwell. if the root is gone, there won't be anything to call stem. He decided to lure the DMS company again and cheat them. Mrs. Blake appreciated him for having the courage to call her, she said she was never afraid of him this time around, she said she had no business with him and she would never have in the future that he should get the hell out of the phone. Mr Wilson, the chairman of Philla Group, growled on the phone and hung up. She went out to meet her family after ending the call with the Philla Group chairman. She didn't bother to discuss what she had just heard but joined them in the play. Sheila's ho
Chapter 89"What do you mean by price?" she asked Hmm.. Lucas sighed"You have started again, tell me the price now""The price is in my room, can you go and get it," Lucas said Sheila looked at him with scornful eyes and she smiled, she felt Lucas had missed her but just pretending. "Why the room? Or do you want to go for a talk like my dad and mom did" she teased. Lucas coughed out and searched Sheila's face. He began to laugh sarcastically and his mouth was agape after the laugh. They were both adults who understood the body language of Mr Blake, no one needed to tell them what he was up to whenever he called his wife for a talk, if nothing like intimacy happened, cuddling and caressing would happen. Lucas was short of words, he looked at Sheila like someone whose heart was stabbed with a word, what a naughty child was he? Why would she be making jest of her parents? He told Sheila never to mind about knowing about the "Price" that would tell her some other day, it seemed She
Chapter 90Lucas blamed himself for what he did for Sheila, he was scared that Sheila might not have the strength to maintain the power. He was ready to put everything on himself because Sheila was on the verge of being hurt, he could not stand anything bad to happen to her because she was her helper. He watched her till she slept off and found his way out of the room. Celebrity is free to use force whenever they like and whenever they are going out, but her name had not been recorded in an influential book because no brand had reached out for her to show her face in their product or present at a big banquetHe made a phone call to Jasper to provide some of his gang to watch over Sheila, he told them they would work in two ways until she was safe. "Hello, Jasper" "Hello boss""Can you provide me with unfamiliar faces that can watch after my woman""Yes, boss"He explained how they would work in order not to be identified by Coopers and Lydia. Cooper's family knew he used Jasper, if
Chapter 91Lucas was puzzled, warmth coursed through his spine when he saw Dr Ken, he didn't know what to say, why would the whole head doctor come because of him? He thought he was not that important that the head doctor would show up at the entrance of Sheila's house. He had never rendered any help or given him money apart from the one given him when he treated him. Dr. Ken proved to him that humanity still exists. "Good evening sir" Lucas greeted "Good evening Lucas, where is she? "Dr. Ken asked"She is Inside sir" He led Dr Ken and assisted him in carrying the box containing mobile medical equipment. Mr. Blake was pestering Sheila to let them take her to the hospital but she didn't respond, he didn't want to annoy her because he saw Sheila's pain had not healed. To be candid, it's hard to grow up without their parents. Life was a living hell for Sheila, if she could remember what she had seen from her guidance, she might not forgive her parents. Sheila lived from friend to fa
Chapter 92Sheila opened her and appreciated Dr. Ken. "Thank you, sir," she said"I didn't come here for your wedding, why would it be for sickness Sheila?" he asked"I can see that you took good care of Lucas very well, well done for that. when are inviting me to your wedding" he teasedLucas and Sheila's eyes met, and a faint smile spread across Sheila's face. No one knew about their fake relationships, why would Dr.Ken ask about marriage?, she believed Lucas and Dr. Ken might discuss her. No doubt, from the look on Lucas's face, she knew he loved her and might be interested in having a relationship with her. Dr. Ken stood up prepared to leave, she urged Sheila to take her drug accordingly and that she should rest. Sheila's mother appreciated the doctor for finding them worthy. Lucas's phone beeped, he received a text message from Mr. Mayor. As he glanced at his phone, he winced, biting his lip upon seeing the message. Aware that he couldn't leave with Sheila being unwell, he co
Chapter 93.Lucas didn't like talking about Sheila behind her back or telling anyone what happened between them but Fabian never stopped pestering him because of the messages he sent him, he split the beans and told him that Sheila was sick and she had been taken care of.Immediately Lucas alighted from the car, someone grabbed him from the back, he turned to see who the person was and he saw Madam Cinderella, anger surged in him not only for being grabbed but also by the person that looked abnormal. "Why would this woman use her filthy hand to touch him? " he cursed Madam Cinderella quickly knelt, she had lost a lot of weight. her complexion lacked any hue, her lips exhibited faint cracks, revealing dryness, and her face had turned pale and said "Have mercy on me, I know I made a mistake that day, you are the reason why I'm like this"Lucas muttered and said, "Is this what Mr Mayor invited me for? Why do I have to be in his mess?" He gritted his teeth in anger and wanted to walk awa
Chapter 94"King Marcus is one of the most powerful figures in this country, he is the head of Baxure Cooperation, his Cooperative used to lead until my company emerged as the first last year and this caused a rift between us. He threatened that my cooperation would go into extinction, I thought it was just a mere threat until everything began to crumble in my eyes." he felt sober as he explained "Marcus will find you," Mr. Mayor said. Lucas chuckled after listening to Mr. Mayor, he didn't know he was experienced. Mr. Mayor underrated him because he had not heard of him and his business he thought he was just an ordinary person that King Marcus could get easily. Mr Mayor was surprised that everything he said about King Marcus did not affect his demeanour, he looked at Lucas as if he didn't understand him and wanted to say another thing before Lucas cut in and said "I know him, I just wanted you to tell me more about him. I have worked for him and I know how powerful he is" he retor
