"What do you mean you've been waiting for my call all morning, Reginald?!" Patrick arched a brow as he asked the question. "The way I left you, boss, it was obvious that you were going to call me one way or the other," Reginald Informed Patrick. He could tell that Reginald was smiling from the other end of the phone widely; his calculations were correct. "Well, since you knew that I was going to call, then you just know what I want," Patrick said to him, trying to conceal his true emotions. "Of course I do, but you know, it's not something that we can discuss over the phone.""Look, Reginald, I know you by now, and I know what you're capable of; you won't just agree to help me except you need something in return, so tell me what it is that you want, and let's get on with this!!" Patrick let out with irritation, he could not believe that of all the people that he could be on the phone with, it would be Reginald. "Exactly why this is not a conversation that we can have on the phone,
Chapter 154"Diego!" Emilia called out in shock. The man also spun around, and upon seeing Diego, he went down on his knees immediately. "Please boss, it's not what you think!!" The man clasped both hands in front of him as he begged. "So tell me what I think it is!" Diego asked sarcastically. "Please boss, I beg of you!!" The man continued to beg for his life. He knew now that Diego had caught him, He was not going to spare his life. "So you've been the one who has been hurting my girl?!""You've been the one inflicting those wounds on my girl's body, haven't you?!" Diego asked Angrily as he grabbed the man by his collar and yanked him up aggressively to his feet. "I can explain, boss Please just give me a chance to explain." The man Pleaded. He was shaking his head fervently as His eyes darted from Emelia to Diego, Who was already on the verge of pouncing on him. "Alright, I'm going to give you two minutes, just two minutes, to tell me the reason why you've been whipping my gi
Patrick was slowly starting to run out of patience as he had been waiting for Reginald for over two hours since he got to the office. They had earlier agreed to meet at the office by 9:00 am in the morning, but knowing how Late Reginald loved to be at every event, he decided that he was going to get to the office at ten, hoping that Reginald would show up 30 minutes after he had arrived. But Patrick was wrong. It was already a few minutes past twelve, and Reginald was not yet here; he kept calling the secretary to ask her if Reginald had checked in yet. But each time he called, her response was always the same: 'No sir, he has not checked in to work yet.' And when Patrick had called her for like The umpteenth time, she had the boldness to ask him why he was still expecting Reginald, knowing that they had dismissed him countless times from the office. Patrick rudely replied to her and told her it was none of his business and that she should just stick to informing him when Reginald
"Hurry up with the knife already, Emelia," Diego Barked impatiently when he saw Emilia standing at the door with the knife clutched in her hands. With the way she held the knife, one would perceive that she was ready to take a swing at anyone who came close to her with it. "Put the knife into my hand, Emilia, and stop staring like that," Diego said again reaching out the hand toward her. "No, Diego, I'm not going to let you do this," Emilia's voice quivered as she spoke. She looked down at the man—within the space of less than ten minutes since had had gone to get the knife, Diego had beaten the man beyond recognition. The man's lips, cheeks,s and eyes were swollen; blood was dripping from every corner of the man's face, and he could barely stand up on his feet. When the man saw Emilia standing at the door, he burst into tears. Emilia followed the man's gaze— he was looking at the knife held tightly in Emilia's hand. "Please Diego, I beg you, do not kill me." The man's words we
Andrew kept on pacing the floors of his daughter's room Wondering how he was going to get himself out of the mess that he had Unknowingly gotten himself into. The absence of his car had not even crossed his mind ever since Dora mentioned that she was taken by those men. Before they had left the house, he begged Andrew not to leave the house Because she suspected that a lot of people were still onto him And would not hesitate to kidnap him at any chance that they saw. He had not only disobeyed and deceived his wife but he had also dragged his daughter into this.Andrew ran his hands through his disheveled hair as he thought of what he was going to do. "Don't just stay there and watch me Panic. Tell me what I'm going to do," Andrew said to Valkyron. —I do not know what you want me to tell your master— Valkyron responded to him. —I was not there when all this happened, and even if I was, I know that saying anything to you would not have met anything at that time— Valkyron broke the
Patrick waited patiently for Reginald to come back and resume his seat before he followed suit. "Reginald, please, I am begging you; you can demand anything else apart from that!" Patrick said calmly to him. "If I do not get back my share in those companies, I am sorry, I will not be able to help you." Reginald makes his point clear to Patrick. "I'm ready to give you an open cheque if you wish but not a share, please. I know that wherever Mr Genius is, he expects that I'm handling his company well, and giving you back the shares is not a wise thing to do." "And why is not, Mr Patrick?!" Reginald asked sarcastically. "You and I know that those shares were taken away from you because you failed to meet What was required of you to do.""And you and I, Mr Patrick, know that the requirement which was demanded from me was almost impossible to meet up with."Patrick let out a loud sigh before he went on to say: "I know, I know, you couldn't meet up but it's not in my power to give you
Diego followed the noise to its source outside of the building, it sounded like people were fighting or something close to that. "What...what are you both doing?" Diego asked in shock, coming out to meet two men fighting like children before him. "You two stop that now!!" He ordered that they still Kept on throwing punches at each other. "I said stop that," Diego said before he pushed both men aside. "What the matter with you two, and have you gone completely nuts?!" Diego barked at them. "He started it!" Both men said simultaneously while pointing at each other little kids. They were panting and sweat, dripping from every part of their body but they still wanted to take one more swing at each other. "You fool, you punched me first!!""You animal, why would I punch you first? You're nuts, you're the one who punched me first in the face.""Enough the both of you, I will not stand here and listen to this nonsense, do you hear me," Diego said to them. Running his eyes over them, he
The sun was scorching hot even when it had rained just moments ago. The heat from the sun was causing Andrew to slow down in his pace as he walked. As he continued moving, he kept looking around for any spots where he could hide himself so he could teleport, but there was none. He wiped the sweat from his forehead with his palm and dried his palm on his clothes. His legs were giving up under him and he felt he was going to fall to the ground any moment from now. But he couldn't let that happen. Everywhere and every corner that he turned, there were people everywhere. And they all seemed to be staring at him—as if they knew that he would pass out from the heat. "Hey, you there!" A man called out to him, waving his Hand in the air so that Andrew would notice him quickly in the crowd. Andrew wasn't sure if the voice was referring to him so he continued walking. But when the voice kept calling out to him, he had to stop In the streets and turn to see where the voice was coming out fr
