Phillippe stared at me in shock. "You again, what are you doing here?” Philippe shouted angrily. “I see now, now I know why that girl looked familiar, she was with you that day wasn’t she?” "Why are you guys always trying to ruin things for me, what does this even have to do with you?” He was irritated by the whole scenario. I remained silent looking at him disgusted. "What does this have to do with me? Taking innocent girls away from their homes and family, to sell to strangers who might use them as sex slaves, house maids and all sorts has nothing to do with me?” I asked, even more disgusted as he was trying to play innocent. "Is your family here? Are any of your relatives here? No, so what the heck is your problem? Do you think you can get me like you did the other time? Look, the other time I was not prepared but this time, you are outnumbered, just leave while you still can walk.” He said, smirking. I ran straight to him and landed a very big punch on his nose. "You basta
I had the thought of picking my phone to dial Paula’s number. I should have really taken my own advice by not getting attached to anyone but what can I do in this case. I am not even this attached to my real family members, but John was really good to me when I was still Dumebi having not a single clue to who I was, if I had any family or where I came from. He was really there to help me through my difficult times with Uloma and her family, so why wouldn’t I do this much for him. I stopped hesitating and picked up my phone, I dialled Paula’s number and she responded quickly. "Hey Paula I am really sorry to disturb you but I really need to talk to you.” I said as I continued to drive back home. "What time would you be free, can you come to my house?” I added. "Is everything ok, this one that the great Tony needs my help?” "Please just come over and I will explain it to you.” I said and immediately hung up the call.Lizzy got to the office to realise that John was not there, she t
The Boss asked, baffled."Wait, what? You mean the same person who ruined Miss Wellington’s operation also did this.?” "Yes sir.” Phillippe answered. The man got up with anger and slapped Phillippe. "How can you tell me that only two people were able to defeat all of you again for the second time?” Phillippe held the slapped face and muttered, "sir he is not an ordinary man; I am sure of it.” “I heard we kidnapped someone he knew, perhaps that was how he got to know about the operation, if not there is no way he could have figured it out, it was really coded and we made sure to get rid of any suspicion or threats.” Phillippe added. His boss went back to sit and pondered for a while. "Hmm, this man, this guy you say he is not ordinary, who is he?” His Boss asked, now interested in my identity. "Sir I am not really sure but I think I recall his name to be Tony.” Phillippe said with confidence in the information he just provided his boss. More questions poured in from his boss. "D
I gazed at Paula as she gazed at me back, we both had a staring confrontation and there was silence. "You are not saying anything?” I wondered what was going on in her head. "What do you want me to say Tony?" “I know it might seem difficult, but what I am asking you is to save a life not to kill someone, and besides nobody needs to know anything." "I just want you alone to attend to him, that's all.” I added.Paula didn't look convinced with her continued stare. "What’s wrong?” I asked worried about how she looked. "Do you have his medical report? The hospital he was treated at? Are they ok with another Doctor taking over the treatment of their patient?” She inquired with the intention of dissuading me. "They did not exactly say that, but I could tell they had no care to whether George woke up or not, that was when I knew I had to take matters into my own hands.”Paula was looking convinced of my take but gave a clause condition. "Ok, then fine but I need the help of someone, I
"Tony owns BRADON?” Mathilda asked. "Yes, don't you know? Anyways do you know anything more about Tony apart from the fact that he is friends with Mr. Wellington?” "Well not really, all I know is he is really strong, smart and very hardworking, why did you let such a great man go?" "Well you're at lost” Mathilda said. After all of these and the shocking revelation she had made Uloma started to feel something was wrong, she had realised that I wasn’t spending the money she thought I was. Back at the Lotus Group Goons base, Phillippe moved back and forth trying to understand how on earth he was going to get I and Trina. “The two of them are more dangerous than I thought, they have both ruined my operation twice now, they must pay for what they have done.” He exclaimed."I will have to find out who exactly both of them are, they might be working for some organisation or something.” He picked a picture of me and Trina and kept it on a board. “I won’t rest till the two of you are don
The sudden shock you get when you meet someone you least expect on a day like this was what I saw on her face. I think we were both shocked. “Your phone is on the floor, are you ok?” I asked, seeing how shocked she was to see me. Uloma bent down to pick her phone and immediately asked with an amazed look on her face, “Dumebi what are you doing here?” "Well, what does it look like? I'm getting into a car.” I replied as I opened the driver side of the car to get in. With rolling eyes. "I mean what are you doing in such a classy environment, this place is not meant for folks like you.” “I really don’t have time for this.” I said while making further attempts to enter the car. Uloma grab my shirt with a sneering look, “I am talking to you, can’t you answer, who are you plotting to scam this time?" "Having divided identities and claiming to be innocent.” She added. "Look Dumebi or Tony or whatever you call yourself, I don’t know what exactly you are up to, but I know for a fact tha
With an aura of familiarity, Charlie asked, "Did he give you a description of this Tony guy?" "Tell me something Mr Maxwell, is this Tony very described to you? How strong is he to be ble to defeat Phillippe?” Charlie continued. "Honestly, I don’t know, but the way he described him, he should be strong enough but we don't know who he works for, he also said there was a woman with him and that her name is Treeeee something...”“Trina?!” Charlie added. With a surprising exclamation, Mr. Maxwell said, "Yes! Yes! Trina that was what he called her. Taking a chair to sit, "Hmm, now I see, I know who this guy is and he is very dangerous at what he does, a gangster, a don!” Charlie said “What do you mean? Have you heard of him before?"Yes, I do and I’m afraid too well to know that he is not someone whom you can easily mess with, in order to defeat Tony, you need a grand plan.” Charlie responded. With much confidence Mr. Maxwell said, "Well since
Doctor Dre was knocking on my door continuously but none of us heard it. I was so concerned about getting John to hide in my room so that he won’t see him. "Stop being stubborn John, let’s go. Leave the treatment to the doctors, staying here would change nothing.” I said this and held John's hand and headed out of the room.Still in agitation of leaving the room, “but I don’t understand, why can’t I stay…” As John continued to talk the door opened and Doctor Dre walked in. I have been at the door but no one seems to want to open up, so I helped myself in, hope I’m not interrupting anything.” Dre said. I stood there frozen for a moment. "Doctor Dre, Paula is in there, I will be back shortly.” I said pointing to the room George had been placed"Let’s go John.” Doctor Dre went towards the room I pointed to but he was clearly confused. As soon as I got to the room I shut the door. I turned to John with a very serious sneer, "John listen this Doctors are specialists, they are not j
