Chapter 85Mr. Brandon drove into his compound. His wife quickly jumped down from the car and she staggered inside. She fell multiple times before she could enter the living room. When she entered, she sat on the couch and told her husband that she was going to kill Lucas. She stood up and threw a lot of things away, she yelled, shouted, and wailed. When her daughter heard the noise from the living room, she came to check what was happening. Her mother hurled abusive words at her for marrying useless Lucas. If she hadn't married him, she wouldn't have been humiliated in one of the Harrison and Elle stores. She explained what happened, how she was humiliated and how Lucas made her humiliated. She said Lucas manipulated them to punish her, the most painful thing was paying a $10,000 fine for disturbing the peace of the store and the undertaking she signed. She feared that Harrison would submit the undertaking she signed to the appropriate authority, she gritted her and said "I signed a
Chapter 86Jared took a moment to loosen up, he chose to watch the news on TV after his time with Lydia. However, what Lydia witnessed on the screen fueled an intense surge of anger within her.As Sheila, who had been nothing more than a subordinate in Lydia's eyes, appeared on an exclusive channel, Lydia's anger boosted. The realization that Sheila, someone she had considered as almost inconsequential, had hit the jackpot of fame. She knew if Exclusive Channel should advertise someone or product, that product or the person would be known worldwide. The channel advertised the blockbuster Sheila acted the role of female lead. She thought if she had acted in the movie, that was how the channel would carry her image and make her known throughout the world. Sheila had taken her position. Her features disfigured with fury, Lydia's eyes blazed with an intensity that matched the burning anger within her. In an outburst of frustration, she couldn't contain herself and exclaimed sharply, a m
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
