Rodney glanced at Sandra in shock. He wondered if he had done anything wrong for Mrs Jenkins to address him in such a manner. "Errm...I don't understand what's going on here. Did I do anything wrong?" Rodney asked as he stood up from his seat. "You ask me if you've done anything wrong. You haven't, but we don't want you around here. We don't want you to be a part of our family!" Mrs Jenkins said. "Sandra, what's going on? Is that true?" Rodney asked facing Sandra with a look of surprise on his face. As soon as Sandra saw him look at her, she looked away. "Oh, no. This is unbelievable," Rodney said as he walked towards the door to leave. "Go where you're needed! We don't need wretched fools like you in our family!" Mrs Jenkins spoke at the top of her voice before Rodney left the house. Sandra knew that she would be courting trouble if she followed Rodney to the house, so she decided to wait back at her mother's house for some days. She had anticipated earlier that Rodney's meetin
Mr and Mrs Jeff were relaxing in front of their house when they saw Donald drive into the compound. "Hey, Donald is here," Nina told her husband who was busy eating some fruits from his plate. "Oh..." Albert responded as he looked up at the car which drove into the compound. Not too long, Donald stepped out of the vehicle and walked towards them. "Hi, Dad. Hi, Mum." Donald greeted as he moved to sit beside them. "Hey, Donald. You're welcome," both of them responded. "How was work today?" Albert asked his son. It was Friday, so Donald decided to branch over to have dinner with his parents before going home. "Work was fine, Dad. Duluth Associates is doing much better. We've been able to recruit more experienced and dedicated staff, so we're getting better results," Donald told his Dad."Wow, that sounds interesting. The police are still on the lookout for those behind the fraudulent loan application. Investigations are still ongoing," Albert said. "Yes, Dad. The culprits must be foun
"I must do all in my power to get that inheritance. I have no money on me anymore. Everything I had is gone. My clothing business collapsed because we spent every money I gained from it. Now, I'm left to start all over from the scratch. I can't continue to fold my hands, instead, I must do something to bounce back very quickly," Rodney told his friend, Jones. Jones was one of Rodney's closest friends. He was very mature and supportive, so Rodney liked to confide in him. Since Sandra has decided to divorce you, I think you should prove to her and her family that you are not poor. Look for some means by which you can make money. Of course, when you're rich, she won't be able to resist you no matter how she tries," Jones told his friend. The challenge is that I don't know what to do to become rich within a short time," Rodney said. "Well, it doesn't have to be necessary within a short time frame. Whenever it happens; when she finds out that your status is changed, she may likely wa
It was Saturday and Sandra was so excited that she would be seeing Donald again. Since morning, she found it difficult to take her mind off what she had to gain if the old flame between them was rekindled. She made sure that she looked good and attractive to Donald, so she wore one of her very expensive dresses and made up her face. Since it had been a while she saw Donald, she wanted to look very attractive. When it was evening, she found her way to Donald's house. Donald was expecting Sandra as well. She pressed on the doorbell and was ushered in by one of his servants. As soon as she entered the sitting room, she shouted in excitement: "Donald, I'm here!" then she rushed to hug him. "Eh, Sandra. How have you been?" Donald asked as the both of them sat down on one of the sofas in the sitting room. "Ever since you were kidnapped, I've not been myself. I've had sleepless nights and several moments of depression. However, since your mother told me that you had been found, I've fel
In Kelfort Companies Inc., at Donlow city, Dub and Amelia had been a major force behind the growth and progress of the company. Every staff of the company knew that Amelia had a major role to play in the progress of the company. Over time, because Dub and Amelia had worked together, they became closer. Dub began to see Amelia from a different light and tried to resist getting attracted to her. It was a Friday afternoon after Dub and Amelia were about to close from work, Dub walked into Amelia's office. "Hey, Amelia. I'm sure you must be so famished. Can I take you out for dinner tonight?" Dub asked. Amelia was a bit surprised by Dub's request. It was obvious that Dub was becoming friendlier with her every passing day. "Hmmm...yes. That will be fine by me," Amelia responded. "Okay then. I'll come and pick you up at your house as soon as it's 5 pm," Dub promised. It was already 4 pm and the both of them were getting ready to leave the office. Amelia took a taxi to her house as usua
The moment Rodney got to know that Duluth Associates was the headquarter company of Ferex company, he became afraid and at the same time bitter against the Jeffs. He had built a wall of bitterness in his heart against the Jeff family. He was afraid because anytime he heard Jeff's name or anything related to it, he felt that he may one day be discovered for getting involved in 'Donald's killing'. "So, Duluth Associates is not the only investment that the Jeffs own?" Rodney thought to himself. Now that Rodney got to know that Ferex company also belonged to the Jeffs, and they were rich but his family struggled to survive, he felt more bitter against them because he felt that they could help his family to be rich, yet they refused to. So he was ready to do anything to hurt the Jeff family. If possible, he did not want to work in their company. Now that he happened to work in one of their companies, he was determined not to make things work in the company, before leaving to work with
Since Melissa returned to Parker city, she never visited Donald's parents' house, nor did Donald visit Melissa's parents' house. The both of them communicated over the phone most of the time. It was Saturday and Donald usually used his Saturdays to rest and hang out with friends. This fateful Saturday, he decided that he and Melissa would see each other. So he picked up his phone to dial her number. "Hello, Mel. What are your plans for today?" Donald asked. "Well, I'll be cleaning up the house and having some rest today," Melissa replied. "Alright then. I thought we could hang out with each other today," Donald said. "Why not? That's very fine with me. I think that will make my Saturday," Melissa responded. "Alright, then. So where should we meet?" Donald asked. "Why don't we meet at your house today? All this while, you come over to my house so it's time for me to know your house today," Donald said. Melissa still lived with her parents."Not yet, Donald. You can always come and v
"What?" Rick and Betty looked behind to see who had just spoken. "Donald?" Rick looked in shock. Melissa had tried everything possible for Donald to leave the house after Betty saw him. But he had driven halfway along the road when he suddenly changed his mind. "Melissa, why are you doing this? It's obvious your Mum knows me, peradventure through the news. She thinks I'm dead or something, so why don't you let me prove that it's me? Many people need to know that I'm still alive. It's painful when I think people believe that I am dead when I am alive," Donald said. He believed that many people in Parker city who knew that he was missing were yet to believe that he had been found and was still alive. And he believed that Melissa's parents were one of those in that category. "So, this...this...emmm...young man is still alive," Rick said. He wanted to call Donald an idiot, but he felt that it wasn't going to be wise to let Donald know their intentions. He could suspect them of the ki
