THE UNSTOPPABLE BOSS Chapter 31: Time for real show.
“Do wh…” Marcus was interrupted with a hug from Abigail. He was stunned, not knowing how to react. This will be the first time a lady will hug him. His two hands hung in the air for some moments before he slowly wrapped it around her. He swallowed her, feeling her body compressing against his. “I miss you Laurent.” Abigail's tears kept pouring from her eyes, wetting his shirt. Marcus didn't know what to say or react about the whole thing. “I..I miss you too.” He stuttered, his voice shaky with anxiety as he replied. Hearing that, Abigail wrapped her hand more tightly around his waist, shedding more tears. “I miss you more Sweetheart.” Her voice was muffled by his body. Marcus gulped! Abigail reluctantly broke the hug and stared into his eyes, one of her hands still entangled with his hand. “I thought I was going to lose you forever. They said you died at war and your body was never seen.” She sniffed in tears. Marcus squeezed her hand gently and smiled at her. She smi

Abigail beamed with a smile, occasionally stealing glances at Marcus who focused his eye on the road on the driver seat. She exhaled in relief, her confidence and pride returning because the only person who had always made her feel safe is back.Marcus noticed the glances and glanced back at her with a warm smile. “Is anything the matter dear? He asked, focusing on the road again.Abigail relaxed on the seat, turning away to the window with the smile still on her face. She felt the evening wind blowing her hair backward because the glass window was slightly opened.“You promised me a…” Her ringing phone suddenly interrupted her speech. The smile on her face changed to a slight frown when she saw the call from the monarch of the Augusto family.She glanced at Marcus as if asking for his permission before picking the call.“It’s Lady Augusto.” She said with a slight shaky voice, trying to hide the anxiety in her eyes.Lady Augusto as she preferred to be called is Laurent's stepmom.

Marcus stepped out from a bathroom with a towel wrapped around his waist. Droplets of water dripped from his hair on the floor. He walked past the gigantic bed which stood at a corner of the room, neatly nestled on it is a blue duvet as if waiting to experience a weight on it.Marcus untied the towel and slipped into a cream coloured nightwear. He stood before the window of the hotel room which was located on the topmost floor of the hotel. Distantly, he could see the view of the city from there and also the cool evening wind brushing against his skin.Abigail and Rose were in another room in the hotel, another reason for Abigail to suspect him. How could he allow his wife to lodge in a different room when they're in the same hotel.“I can't do this.” He shook his head as the thought of how performing the responsibility of a husband to Abigail weighed heavily on his mind.This is what he had always wanted– a woman who would love him sincerely for who he is and Abigail fits into the c

In the stillness of the air at the penthouse, chatters and laughter of excited guests filled the atmosphere, making the place lively.Soft Clinking of glasses subordinated to the cacophony of sound in the air as the people slowly burn away the night with their families and loved ones. The view of the city from the place was astonishing. Collection of light from a distance in the city looks like twinkling stars.Tina, the female attendant, passes through with Marcus, Rose and Abigail, trailing behind her respectively. Rich and thick smell of assorted dishes wafted into their nose, making Rose's stomach grumble.Tina stopped at a table which had no guests around it. Four thick leather chairs stood round the table while on the round table itself seated arrays of silver buffet plate, meticulously queing on the table. Expensive brands of wines seated at a side, waiting to be poured.Tina stepped forward with a practiced smile on her face.“Here are our most concerted and most expensiv
THE UNSTOPPABLE BOSS Chapter 35: Marcus shocked everyone.
“I’ll pay for the damages.” Marcus said, his confidence observed from his unflickering gaze as he looked over the wreckage on the floor.Angry turned behind sharply, his anger gaze meeting Marcus's, casting him a condescending look. “And who the heck are you!? An ATM card designated to pay damages? Huh?” He scoffed, turning his back on Marcus, not ready to exchange words with him.“I’ll say this for the last time and after I do, you're doomed!” Andrew warned, making the lady's heart race in fear.“I’m..I'm…” She stuttered, her voice hitching to spit the apology then Marcus intercepted her.“You’re not apologizing when you'll still have to Pay for the damages. Are you?” He raised his brow slightly.“She’s not apologizing!” He stood at her front defensively.“Do you know who I am!? You're interfering in my affair. Back off!!” Andrew growled, his voice dripping with anger.Marcus chuckled, not flinching a bit at his threat. “I’ll pay for your ruined dresses and drink.” He emphasized bol
THE UNSTOPPABLE BOSS Chapter 36: Marcus was challenged.
“The account number please.” Marcus repeated, his hand hovering on the screen, eager to make the transfer and end the whole fuss.Andrew chuckled, a smug grin tugging at the corner of his lip.“Don’t be stupid, Mr. Interruptor.” He began rudely. “Even if you succeed in juggling money which I'm sure is impossible for you, you can't have access to the outfits. It's impossible for the company to manufacture twos of their kind. It's impossible!!” “And if I do?” Marcus raised his brow, his expression unfazed.Andrew laughed softly, looking around. “I’ll foot everyone's bill.” He challenged, overconfident that Marcus can't siphon the hurdle at hand.Everyone gasped, surprise flashing in their eyes.A man among the onlookers skimmed his eye on the onlookers, taking note of the head count.“What!! He must be kidding!!” He whispered in shock before raising his voice, saying. “I just counted approximately 50 heads here. Are you going to pay for everyone!! The cheapest meal here costs not less

A deafening hush fell over the penthouse!Everyone's ear itches, their eyes engaged, faces twisted in dissatisfaction as saying Marcus just pulled a prank on them with the call to did he truly made the call!!?Getting those outfits from Debbie wingham clothings is not a small feat that can be surmounted with just a call.Andrew smiled, a triumphant smile playing across his lips. “5 mins.” He chuckled, turning to the people as if to make a public announcement. “Did this man here think we're all fools!! “I doubt if he knows where Debbie wingham clothings is.” He glanced at him as he continued. “I’m pretty sure this will be the first time he's hearing the name!” He laughed, his stirring a ripple of chuckle from the people.“He Must have heard it on the TV.” Someone chipped in, making everyone burst into a crackling laughter.“Did he even have a Tv! Huff!” Another person pressed on, still mocking Marcus.Marcus just stood there, his expression as hard as ever, unmoved at the condescendi

Insufficient funds!Joyce read out the error message from the payment machine.Andrew frowned, clearly agitated. “You must be kidding me! How long have you been using this machine!?” Joyce frowned, wondering what he was driving. “What does the period of usage of the machine have to do with the payment?!” “You’re obviously not professional enough to handle a payment machine. Do you even have an idea of how much is in that card!!?” Andrew kept boasting.Already the people had started getting irritated because he was only fuming with pride without taking good actions.“Can you insert the card and try again.” Marcus intervened, presuming Andrew didn't have a dime in his account. The dude was only living a fake lifestyle.Joyce did as he said and the machine displayed the same message; insufficient funds.“I’ll just check the balance!” She said, enthusiastic to end the whole drama once and for all.She approached him with the machine.“Your pin sir. Let's check your balance because I bel

Chapter 59: Laurent wasn't found.
Mirabelle's part of the plan is to divert the attention of the doctor from going to Laurent ward so that mirabelle would perfectly execute her own plan to inject Laurent with the deadly poison. It won't take up to 2minutes before he'll give up the ghost.Mirabelle pushed the doctor with the tip of her finger in such a way he hit his back against the door which opened immediately and they both found themselves in his office. She pushed him against the office desk and pressed her body on him with a lascivious grin on her lips. She leaned closer and whispered into his ear like a cheap prostitute.“Let's get this done, naughty boy." She hit her hand on his trousers right on his rod.The doctor's rod had risen, kicking against his trouser which shows his eagerness and to press on with the sexual entanglement so he grabbed her on the waist and leaned closer to kiss her on the lips but she angled her head backward and placed his index finger across his lips.“Easy boy..Easy with me..Giv
Chapter 58; Abigail plan with Mirabelle.
Nurses push a wheel bed along the passage of a hospital. Their running footsteps on the floor were collective, slapping against the marble floor of the Hospital. On the wheel bed is Laurent with blood all over his body while part of his body had suffered a serious burn. His eyes were shut– he looks dead.“To ward 10! Hurry!!" A doctor matched behind the nurses and Laurent was quickly whisked into Ward 10.No one knows if he's alive or dead. He was laid on a bed in the ward and quickly the doctor cut his cloth loose with a scissor. Medical devices and tubes were passed into his body to support his life. Beside the bed is a heart beat monitor which displays a continuous zigzag line.“He's still alive! We'll commence treatment now!?" The doctor's voice cuts through the minimum air in the emergency ward and nurses swing into action, preparing to commence treatment on Laurent.The news about the accident had circulated far and wide. Lady Augusto who was in her sophisticated living room qu
Chapter 57: Catastrophe happened after leaving the court.
Jaxon was cuffed and like a hardened criminal, he was pushed into the police vehicle which drove away immediately. Flashes of camera didn't stop flickering on him till he was totally out of sight.Journalists clustered around Laurent as he made his way out of the courtroom. They stretched microphones and struggled to hear from him as if he is a president of a nation.“How do you feel about winning the case Mr. Laurent?!" A male journalist raised his voice to his hearing but he didn't stop. He simply approached his car yet they buzz around him like bee on honey.“Where did you get the confidence from? You defended yourself without a lawyer and won!" A female journalist struggled to get to him but they pushed her and she fell.Laurent stopped and which also made the crowd to halt too but their microphones never lowered from the air, still willing to hear from him. The noises reduced drastically into murmuring.Laurent walked to the lady who fell and stretched his hand. He smiled at her
Chapter 56: Triumph in the Court.
Silence fell over the courtroom momentarily after Laurent asserted that he came to defend himself. His confidence and bold stance got everyone stunned even Jaxon had to adjust on the his seat, a hint of nervousness in his demeanor.He had bribed both his lawyer and the judge- his way of making sure Laurent is judged guilty and end the rest of his life in prison.Seeing the collective shocks on the people's faces, Marcus laughed slightly.“Let's proceed." He broke the silence simply.The fat judge who was also in Shock cleared her throat and said.“Mr. Laurent. Are you sure about this? The Court can grant you few minutes to arrange fo r a lawyer." She said even when she knew Laurent is going to lose the case because she must judge him guilty no matter what.“You heard me well." Laurent simply added and glance at his wrist watch, seemingly impatient.“What a rude fellow. You're going to step out of here into prison. I bet you." The judge swore between gritted teeth. She hit the gavel ag
Chapter 55: Day of judgement.
Marcus got to the location of the address. It was under a bridge at the fringe of the city. It was dark and weary. No human could be at such a place especially at that time. Marcus waited in the car, tapping his fingers gently and nervously on the steering wheel.He could hear the sound of running water down the old bridge which added to the tension in the atmosphere.Just then, he sighted the headlight of a car coming from a distance. It reflected on the windscreen on his car. He shifted on his seat and his heart beat increased.The headlight shone more brightly on his face as the car stopped in the centre of the road. The front door open a man stepped out of the car. His huge shadow reflected on the ground by the headlight of the car which he left on as he approached Marcus.Marcus composed himself and took a deep breathe. “Let's do this." He muttered and stepped out of the car.As the man got close to him, he fell to his knee, his head tilted down. “My lord! Welcome back." He sai
Chapter 54: What he discovered in the wardrobe.
Inside of the golden wardrobe were documents, all white papers, each seated on another one, filling the wardrobe to the top. Marcus' eyes scan the documents, wondering what contents it holds.The silence that emerged in the room was deafening. The tickling seconds hand of a wall clock would definitely be heard loudly in the silence but unfortunately there was none but Marcus' heart took the function of a wall clock. He could hear it beating in his ear.He gulped hard and reached out to one of the documents. Carefully, he pulled it out and the document rested on his palm. On the front page is the name; Laurent Augusto boldly written on it.Definitely, Lauren had set up the place.The tip of his Thumb and index finger gripped the edge of the paper and he flipped it open. A soft rattling sound came from it as a new page was revealed.His eyes scanned the words on the document carefully. As it moved across it, his eyes widened more and more, a mixture of surprise and shock flashed in his
Chapter 53; The golden wardrobe.
“I’m giving you nothing, Abigail!!” Laurent blurted, his tone final as he glared at Abigail who stepped forward to him with a fierce gaze too.She snorted, a subtle deadly crossing her lips. “You must be kidding Laurent! This was our deal and a deal is a promise!” She declared, tucking a stand of her hair backward.Silence took over for some seconds which enabled both to hear the distant cacophony of Horn from the distant city. “The Laurent you knew is dead and gone!” Marcus broke the silence, his voice simmering with rage. “The new me will not grant what you want! Go in and pack your things and leave. Now!!” Laurent pointed his finger in the direction of the door, his expression as hard as a stone.Abigail was fully taken aback. She couldn't comprehend what he meant by the statement; ‘the Laurent you knew is dead is gone.’ Frankly, the former Laurent had developed feelings for her some steps into the marriage contract but Abigail is just a greedy chick whose intention is to have h
Chapter 52: Shocking discoveries.
In an empty warehouse. The silence in the vicinity was deafening. The squeaking of rats playing around in the dim space was the only sound heard in the dead silence.“Who sent you to burn the building?” Laurent's voice cut through the silence.He stood before the man who had been tied on both legs and hand to a wooden chair.“I don't know what you're talking about? Just kill me!” The man replied arrogantly.Laurent Chuckled. “You don't know? Huh?” He stepped closer to him and pointed a pistol to his head.“Are you going to speak now or not?” His finger rested on the trigger.The man laughed softly and spoke with a taunting voice. “Do you think I'm afraid of guns?” He Chuckled.“You will be afraid of where you'll find yourself after I pull the trigger because you're going to land in hell!” Laurent said, his voice filled with horror.“Another empty threat.” The man laughed out loudly, taking his statement as an empty threat.“Do you think I'm joking around here!”Provoked, Laurent pulle
Chapter 51: Fight in the club.
Abigail on the other gently laid Rose on the bed and stepped away from the bed. She looked at the wall clock; 12: 30am. It was very early in the morning and the sky was still as dark as coal.Regardless of the argument she had with Laurent earlier, she was desperate to know where he left without informing her.“Why is Laurent not home by this time?” She muttered, feeling restless and worried about her husband's whereabouts. She took her phone from the nightstand seated close to the bed and dialed his number.The phone rang but no one picked. Tension and uneasiness mounted in her heart.Just as her finger hovered on the screen to dial his number again, a message appeared on it.Her Heart skipped a beat thinking it was from Laurent but the messages were sent by an unfamiliar number.Hesitantly, she clicked on the message and viewed it. Her heart ruptured and her body trembled visibly as she fixed her gaze on the screen, staring in shock.On the screen is the picture of Laurent with the
