James stepped into his car and drove home, his mind fixed on what he heard from the doctor, He clenched his fist tightly on the steering as he thought of if the bar attendant was really behind his woman’s poisoning, he was never going to forgive him or anyone involved with it. James stepped vividly on the accelerator as he drove off to his house, his mind was a lot of things, and his phone suddenly buzzed jolting him out of his thoughts, James glanced down at his phone that continued to ring, he ignored it instantly and focused on the steering. James wanted to ignore his call at first but his phone continued to ring continuously, he had no choice but to pick it up.The moment he picked up Lucas's voice graced the phone in a hurry“James, there is fire on the mountain, Things are about to get rough right now!” He exclaimed and James brows instantly snapped togetherHe instantly stepped on the brake parking at the side of the road. James' mind instantly ran through a lot of things, w
After hours of looking outside the window, and constantly checking his watch, the plane finally landed. Lucas could not wait to finally get off the plane, to him it was some other air casket, and the anxiety had made him claustrophobic, his driver would arrive any moment from now.As his luggage was offloaded and he was meant to meet up with the driver, but while he waited he called James, In hopes that he could reach him before his car finally arrived.Lucas knew who James was, he was the type of man who barely stayed in a palace, he was everywhere and nowhere, and there was no assurance that he could be in the city at the moment.After dialing his number, he was Lucky James picked up at the first ring.“Where are you?” Lucas asked nonchalantly, he was pissed and wasn’t ready for long talks.“I am at the office, why do you ask?”“I am in town, where do I meet you, we need to see and settle this matter now that we have the opportunity to do so, and I need to see you face to face” “Of
Andrew couldn't sleep throughout the night as he kept thinking about all that Alex had said to him the last time he visited him.As early as 8 a.m. even though he was less concerned about Mason's whereabouts since he made it clear to him that he wouldn't be returning home last night. Andrew dressed up and went over downstairs as he planned his way to step out back to the prison. Aunty Margaret saw him trying to step so she cleared her throat ahead and walked through the passage calling out his name. "Sir, Andrew you know you are not meant to be walking from one point to another"Andrew ruffled out his words while stomping his feet on the ground, "Not again Aunty Margaret. I know you are more concerned about my safety but at the same time I'm a full grown-up man and there is nothing bad that wants to happen to me." He made it clear to her like an adult explaining things to a five-year-old child. "I don't mean to control you or sound like a dictator right now when it comes to dealing
"Anna! Anna's Anna!" Her mother was seen calling out her name loud the moment she steeped her feet into Gracious Hospital. She didn't care if another patient in the ward needed maximum attention. She didn't hold back her daughter's name as she kept shouting and calling at the top of her lungs. "Madam, you don't have to be shouting in here. Do you know that you are in the hospital and we value peace and serenity for our clients?" One of the nurses tried calming her down with her soothing voice.Anna's mum pulled back her hand and stood beside the nurse, "You can't tell me to act normal nor can you control my behavior. My daughter is right in here fighting and battling with her life and you have the guts and audacity to dare tell me to be calm. If the tables were turned and you were putting my shoes in this kind of situation would you be calm? Answer the damn question!"The nurse held back her breath as she didn't want to say certain things that would make her regret her choice of wor
Alex glanced through the contract that Andrew had presented to him. He unfolded the contract out of the folder that was placed on the table and tried reading it word for word without omitting any words out of it. "Are you being serious right now? You want me to fall for your scams so that everything written in this contract would have no effect neither will it benefit me."Andrew raised his left eyebrow and looked at him feeling disappointed, "Do you think I'm trying to scam you off?""Well, if not that then what else would you still be doing here, Andrew" he paused for a while to catch up with his breath before pushing further. "Andrew, this offer is not convincing enough maybe you should try another offer and then you can come back to me to know if I'll spill out or not but for now you won't get a piece of information from me.""I know you haven't thought about it well that's why you feel as if I came here to scam you of which I'm bigger than that even to do such a thing. Never!"
"Mum, I'm sorry that I couldn't open up to you from the initial stage but believe me when I say that I didn't mean to hide it from you Mum." She busted out in deep tears trying to hold back the pain she saw in her mother's eyes. "But, you would have sent me a text? You should have said something to me as well. I had no idea that you were admitted to the hospital." her mother kept on expressing herself over and over again to her daughter. "Didn't, James tell you anything about my health? Didn't he tell you that I was rushed into the hospital earlier today?" Anna asked her mother with a shaky voice. "James?" Her mother raised her voice in high pitch in form of questioning. "Yes! James, your one and only lover. The exact same man that you claim to love and you watched him throw me out of your apartment." "Mum!" She called her mum back together trying to give her some body signals that the nurses are still in the same ward with them. "Why are you calling my name like that? Am I lyin
Lucas was dumbfounded as he folded his hands and watched James spin his chair in circle while he thought about the best solution to come up with. "Aren't you done thinking? You better come up with a better plan this tune around and I'll have to look at it drastically." James gave him a severe warning with his hands still wrapped around his chest. "I'm thinking, James. At least you should respect the fact that I'm still looking for a possible means to end all these drama." Lucas tried defending himself with a straight face. "Oh! I should sit back and clap my hands for you that you are doing a great job when I know that you aren't doing any job at all.""Oh! Wow! Is that where you want to push the conversation this time around? Do you want us to banter one more time so that your employees can hear our voice?""Banter? You think I have the strength to banter words with you when I clearly have better things to do rather than exchanging words with you."Lucas rolled his eyes in discom
"Lucas, I don't have an exact answer to give you on this particular question you've just asked me but all that I know Is that Mason is innocent."Lucas feeling tired and pissed at the mention of Mason's name repeatedly gulped down the words he was about to say to James and remained silent. He watched how James's eyes were turning in circles and all he could sense from it was that James was going through a lot. "From my little observation and what I saw at the hospital today, I think there are some certain things Anna is hiding from me.""Hold on for a minute, James." Lucas paused him for a moment while trying to understand his point of view. "Did I hear you saw the hospital? Is Anna in the hospital?" He asked curiously trying to connect the dots with the information James was giving him. "What do you mean by Anna at the hospital? Weren't you here when I told you that I rushed her to the hospital earlier today? Haven't you been listening to all what I've been saying to you all thes
