Leonard heard the door slam shut and he understood what was going on. There was only one explanation for that. His beloved's sister-in-law was hiding away from him. The funny thing was that it was under his nose. He would never have imagined that in his entire life hence the reason for him being pissed." Do you know how hard I looked for you?" He demanded as he yanked the door open forcefully. Emma stared at the man that she was falling for. " Good afternoon, Mr. Leonard." Leonard turned and saw his daughter's curious eyes staring at them. He was livid that Estelle was messing with his mind making him think violent thoughts when she was here all the while. His daughter was also the culprit. "Ava, excuse us." He ordered and the little girl obeyed immediately, vanishing from their presence like she was never there in the first place. He walked into the room and slammed the door shut. "So, what were you planning to achieve? Hide away from me throughout this lifetime? You should have
Leonard received a call immediately he arrived at his office that morning and hissed when he checked the ID caller. It was Mr. Griffin and he was a bit annoyed at the way he had been calling him." Hello, Mr. Griffin. How can I help you?" "I heard what my daughter did.""Okay," "But you can't send her to prison. That's impossible." He said and Leonard chuckled. " Let's have a discussion about this. I promise you. I understand everything that happens and I don't blame you but it would soil my daughter's image. How would you even think about sending her to jail without contacting me first." "Mr. Griffin, if you would just go straight to the point, I think we would all be better that way. But I really don't have the strength for this kind of argument today. What do you propose to do?" "I will compensate you for the damage my daughter has done. Tell me the value of that contract and I'd either send half the payment to you or help you get another one. Which do you prefer?" "Send my fu
"Hello, gentlemen. I really need your help concerning an issue. It's been of concern to me. Can you imagine that my brother has connived with my brother to make sure that I don't get a dime out of the money that they realized from a shady deal? How disturbing is that?" Antonio complained to his friends.They stared at him in shock wondering how this happened without his knowledge " wait where were you when they were collecting this money?""I hope it wasn't one of the times that you traveled without reason. If that's the case then they can withhold the proceeds from you." Mark spoke.Antonio felt like punching the man in the face because it was annoying him to the core. " I can't deal with all of you block heads. I'm telling you that is about fifty million dollars that they are not willing to let me have a part of. What's the relationship between my holiday and their money?""Thanks for those words. Their money. If you would be sincere, you know that you don't deserve it right?" Mark
"Hello, what is that in your hands?" Estelle barged into her brother's office slowly. She had been told on the internet by strangers that there was an issue with her company yet both of them were right here and there was nothing that prepared her for that "So, tell me, what do you intend to achieve by selling the company? I won't allow you to do that.""Can't you see that the company is in shambles? Let's just take our egos and leave right now, you can't just expect that we should just stay and watch it die completely in our hands. There's certainly no joy in that. You hear me?" "We can't just give up like that. I mean, we have to make sure that our father's legacy doesn't go down the drain. I can't wait to see you have a rethink about your decision. I mean, this is very annoying. Why is your idea of repairing this include leaving the company?" Estelle complained. She was bewildered by the latest things happening in the office. The Leonard she knew would ensure that he got things r
Emma pulled away from his hold and rushed off to her house, not wanting any issue of any form because she wasn't sure what was going to happen if she stayed there. Leonard smiled a bit and walked into his office. He had made his intentions known to her and he was sure that she felt the same way but was just trying to hide away so that they wouldn't fall into any error of any sort.He heard the front door shut slightly and he knew that Emma had escaped. Without further Ado, he made sure that he rushed off to catch her before she left. Emma was about to round the corner when she saw Leonard walking towards her. "Come back, it's late." "I'll get a cab, don't worry about that." She responded and he stared at her with a small smile on his face. It wasn't any issue at all. "Thanks for coming to check up on me." She said softly.Leonard didn't waste time in making his decision. He swept her into his arms and the gateman began to laugh. Emma was very embarrassed and she hid her face into
"Who is speaking?" Leonard replied, he was not taking any chances."I want to propose a business to you.""I'm all ears." He replied and stared at his phone softly thinking about how to make sure that he got other things in order. Like making sure that he flushed out certain people who were not fit to work with him ."I want to reinvest in your company and set it afloat and I would have fifty percent of the company." "I don't want you to invest in my company. thank you very much for the offer." "You should reconsider this statement. Your company is going under and there is nothing that you can do about it." "I am not interested, take your deal somewhere else." "I don't want you to allow your ego cloud your senses." Leonard's brain quickly clicked and he realized that he was probably being pranked. "Is this what my brother put you up to? To try to take me away from my company. Tell him that he should take it to heart. He's been kicked out of the company for what he did." "I don't
Ava was up the next morning and decided to go wake up her father immediately. She didn't know where he was after checking his room and finding out that he wasn't present. She took a detour and went to Emma's room, surprised to see Emma sleeping and her father watching over her.It was perfect. Mommy and Daddy. She didn't know why she liked her aunty so much. She giggled and this caught Leonard's attention. "Darling, what are you doing here?" He asked her and she smiled at him softly. "I came to look for you. Is Aunt Emma sick?" "Oh, no. I just came to wake her up but she looked too cute." Ava's nose scrunched up in confusion."Daddy, do you like my aunt?" She asked him.Leonard discovered that anytime she was serious, she referred to her as her aunt. " What happened to you calling her your mom?" He asked her purposely to change the subject." Well, she's my aunt and my mom, I can call her anyone I like. She doesn't mind it. Or do you think she does?" "Oh, obviously not. She doesn'
Leonard swung into action, slipped his feet into slippers and carried his daughter out of the room. He also reached for the keys on the table and rushed off immediately. He didn't want any excuse for her to encounter harm. "Oh my goodness." Emma muttered when she saw him rushing out. " What happened to her?" She followed him but he shook his head. "What do I do?" "Lock up dear." He said and she ran back into her room, took a quick shower and made sure that she locked up the whole windows and doors, carried the keys and locked the main entrance."Let's go!" Leonard said and they all rushed off. Their hearts were palpitating as Leonard drove. The only ray of hope that flickered in his mind was the fact that she was still breathing if not he would have almost ran mad. This was the only person that loved him unconditionally. At the hospital, Leonard rushed out of the car and started to race to the reception. "Make sure that my baby is okay." He orders and the nurses nod before colle
