“I’m so sorry, sir. I wasn’t able to capture the person behind the wheel. The window was a tinted one and I don’t know what it looks like.”

“Thank you very much. You can go back to your duty post and have a good night's rest.” he tapped his back and thanked him so much for his effort.

“Sir, It’s past 2 am and we are still out here discussing. What would Madam Anna think of us?”

“What exactly do you want her to think of us? In case she comes out tomorrow or later this night to ask you for anything relatable to what I’ve asked you earlier on try your best not to respond to her.”

The security guard was dumbfounded at first as he swallowed down the saliva he was harboring in his mouth for too long.

“Did you hear all that I've just said to you?” James asked him one more time to be sure that they are both on the same page.

“Yes! I heard everything that you've instructed me to do.” he nodded, adhering to his words.

“Better! I'll see you later today once every break in the morning.”

    “Father, I don't want to bother you at all with the things I face at work.” Mason started the car and he'd unto the steering wheel. “Son, you are not bothering me at all. I want to know who and who is trying to make that office uncomfortable for you.” Andrew kept on insisting on him. “Father, I was almost sacked last week just because someone hid the file that I kept on my desk.”“What! How did that even happen?” Andrew was startled by what he just heard from his son's mouth. “Up till this moment, I sincerely don't know who his that file. I've asked everyone in the same office with me but they were unable to say something soothing to the ear.”“Are you sure that you kept the file in the same place you do keep your things?” Andrew asked him one more time. “Father, I'm no longer a kid anymore. I know how to keep my things very well but this time around it was just a different case.” His attention was still focused on the calmness of the road and how fewer cars were moving on the str

    “I’m sure father. Nothing is going on between me and Precious. She is just my colleague as I respect her like that.” Mason cleared himself out to his father. “Okay! But as your father, I can tell that she is into you, Mason. She wants to be with you but it looks as if you are not giving her the attention she needs.” “Father, as far as I am concerned I don't think I’d want to have anything to do with precious after the experience I had with my first woman.” Andrew placed his hands on his son’s thighs, ‘You never can tell son. She might not be like other ladies or your first lover.” Mason released a deep breath, “I’ve heard you, Father. Can we now go to the hospital before I head over to my office?” He begged his father looking at the time on his watch. Andrew nodded his head, “I’m ready to come down from the car with you. Just tell me when to come down and I’ll do just that.” Mason unlocked his car and hopped down from it. As he headed over to the other side of the car where his

    The early morning sun rays went into the room of Anna where she lay with her duvet covering her. “Anna! Anna! Kindly wake up I have something important to discuss with you.”James tapped her on her shoulder where she laid on the bed. “What do you want to discuss with me that you can't wait till the day breaks finally?” Anna yawned so loud with her left hand covering her mouth. “As you can see we are both different when it comes to the kind of work we involve ourselves in.”“And, what do you mean by that, James?” She sat upright on the bed questioning him. James sat on the bed beside her, “What I meant was that we both have different kinds of works that we operate. I'm the CEO of my own company and you also have someone you work for. Now you understand the angle I was coming from.”Anna gave a deep sigh of relief, “Yes! Now, I know better and I can't argue less with you at all.” She rolled over to the other side of the bed to continue with her sleep. “Anna, I thought you've woken u

    “Babe, are you aware that Mason was poisoned?” she dried up her tears and stood right in front of him. “I don’t know what you are talking about, Anna.” he picked up his phone from the side table alongside his suitcase. “But, I heard you loud and clear when said that you blamed Lucas for it.” she pressed further wanting to know more about his reaction. “Never mind, Anna. That was only a slip of the tongue. “ he pushed her aside and stormed out of the room heading downstairs. Anna walked closely behind him demanding more answers from him, “James, I’m no longer a kid anymore and the earlier you start addressing me as an adult the better for us. Why do you blame Lucas for this?” “Anna Like I said I didn’t mean what I said with my mouth at all I only spoke out of anger,” he stated his reaction to her. “And, you want me to believe you just like that. James, why are you hiding stuff from me? What happened to team work in our marriage?” She broke down in tears. “Really? Is that where y

    “Mum, which other Mason do you know if not the one you know?” Anna grumbled her words over the phone. “You mean your Ex-boyfriend, Anna?” her voice came out so clear with so much eagerness right hear the response of her daughter. “Yes, mum.” She responded to her without any remorse at all in her voice. “Anna, how dare you do that to James? Do you know what that means at all?” her voice was going so hard as she raised her voice on her daughter. “Mum, it’s not what you and James think that happened. I and Mason didn't have anything as cordial to do with each other. I even made sure that his hands didn't touch me at all.” Anna's mouth rushed so fast like a running tap. “Will you shut up your dirty mouth? Can you even hear the nonsense that is coming out of your mouth?” “But, mother I'm just telling you the simple truth and that's exactly what happened.” Anna tried defending herself. “Anna, everything is wrong with you and if I should be honest I'll say that I'm in total suppo

    Rachael licked her lips seductively and responded to him, “Of course, I don't mind showing you the way at all.” She led him straight up to the elevator that would take them to James' office. Lucas kept looking at her with his wide eyes while she also kept looking at him with her side eyes as they waited patiently for the elevator to finally reach the third floor. Ping! Ping! The sound of the elevator was made and they both made their way out. “I'll stop here for now and only point to the same place where you can get to his office,” Rachael said to him with a slight smile heavy on her face. “You don't have to stop here at all, Racheal.” Lucas pulled back her hands from going. “Why do you want me to continue the journey with you? I'm only a secretary for this company and I believe you know your way around here. As you can see that's his office door over there.” She removed her hands gently from his grip. Lucas braced up and adjusted himself properly, “I know you are kind of

    Racheal pushed him backward with her middle finger, “Lucas, do you know what you are asking from me is a little bit huge and I don't think I'll be able to give you an answer right now?” “Racheal, I know it's a bit huge for you to provide answer for me but I know that you are very confident, and when it comes to providing an answer you'll do a great job to that.” Racheal sniffed in some air while trying to be calculative with her words, “Are you sure you want to hear my answer right now?” She glanced at him trying to pick up his reactions. “Yes! I want to know what your response would be before I find my way into James' office.” he adjusted his suit with his mouth moving slowly as he said a word of prayer. Racheal Cat walked to where he stood leaned closer to his ears and responded to his request, “Where will the venue be because this lady is ready to make just happen?” James didn't believe what he just heard from her mouth. He dipped his hands into his ears to clean his ears on

    Lucas braced up and breathed in some fresh air before knocking on the door right in front of him. Knock! Knock!“You can come in whoever is at the door.” A deep masculine voice responded behind the door. Lucas waited for some minutes without pushing the door open just as how James had commanded him to come inside. “I said you can come inside. I don’t have any private meetings going on right now. So, at least feel free to come inside just as how I’ve instructed you to open the door.” James addressed the person behind the door with a harsh voice and this time around he was serious. Lucas hearing the tone of James' voice pushed the door and exclaimed, “ Surprise!” his hand was thrown up into the air waiting for a hug from his long-time friend. James picked up the file he had kept on his desk earlier on and flanged it on Lucas's face in anger, “How dare you do such a grievous thing to me, Lucas?” “What excatly are you talking about, James?” Lucas held onto his face so tight. “You st

    Jason pulled him back after receiving the warm embrace that was presented to him by Mason, “Are you sure you are fine? Are you sure nothing happened to you?” He touched all the body of Mason to be sure nothing happened to him. “I'm doing okay, man. It feels so good to see you, Jason. I thought you wouldn't show up right here with me.” he hugged him one more time before relaxing the tightness of his body. “No way! Mason, there is no way I won't show up right here after everything I heard on that call. I'm more than excited to see that you are safe.” A warm smile erupted on his face,“Thank you, Jason. But, how were you able to locate my father's house I know that I've never for once brought you here before.”Jason smiled back at Mason and shook his head back and forth in agreement with what he said, “Well, I and Precious traced you one time when you left the office abruptly and that's how I was able to locate your father's mansion.”“What is happening over there?

    “This isn’t real!” Lucas was stunned as he heard the loud sound of the gun the moment the senior officer fired it directly at Alex.“I hope nothing happened to Alex.” James leaned closer to Lucas using him as a means to find his strength as he couldn’t get over the fact that a bullet just went through Alex's back.“Pick him up!” The senior officer yelled at the other officer standing close to where Alex lay on the floor.The young officer nodded his head in affirmation and without wasting much time pulled Alex up with his back being covered with blood as if he was drowning in a pool of blood.“What should I do to him, Sir?” the officer asked, looking bothered while waiting for the commander to give him a command so he could follow his lead.“Take him to the ambulance and have him handcuffed.” He darted his face over to Lucas and James who were shivering from the way they kept on leaning on each other.“I want you both to stretch forth your hands without any fuss.” His eyes were on the

    Aunty Margaret groaned in pain as she lay on Andrew’s body trying so hard to protect him from getting hurt and being attacked by his oppressors. “Dad, are you okay? Aunty Margaret, can..can..you hear me?” Mason's eyes were gradually getting heavy with the tears he had been hoarding for far too long.Andrew managed to shove himself off Maragraet’s body while she was still lying on him, “Margaret, can you hear me at all?” He managed to ask with his weak voice.“I need to be taken to the hospital as soon as possible. My leg feels heavy and I…can’t..feel..myself anymore.” She poured out her words in pain with her hands still holding the tip of her leg groaning out in loud pain of discomfort.“Fuck!” Mason gradually stood up from the floor and placed Aunty Margaret’s head over his Dad’s lap.He ran over as fast as his legs could carry him the moment his eyes caught Naomi as she was trying to plot her escape amidst the officers that were being surrounded in the room.

    A Bullet For Him

    “What!!!” The gun that Alex had on his hands dropped to the floor in agitation. “Any words or actions you say or do will be used against you in the court of law. I want you to surrender yourself and walk through the door,” the senior officer said aloud.The security officers stayed in circles as they surrounded every corner of the living room, while some of the armed men stayed outside the mansion, protecting the wall corner so no one would escape. The loud sound of their siren echoed through the estate and some of the neighborhoods were curious to know what was happening behind closed doors. “But, we didn't do anything at all, Officer. You can't just bump into us and ask that we surrender to you.”James attacked the officer without feeling any remorse for his actions. The other officer cocked out his gun still putting on a straight face, “Young man, don't force me to pull this trigger on you. You heard what he said, right? So just do it and stop wasting our precious time.”“I'm so

    You Are Under Arrest

    Everyone in the room was startled the moment they heard the old cracky voice coming from behind. Both James who was about to pull the trigger on Mason and Lucas who was charging James up to pull the trigger slowly turned their head to see where the voices were coming from. “Yes! You heard what I said and the earlier you drop, down the gun and surrender yourself to the police the better for everyone.” Aunty Margaret's hands were shaking as she placed the phone right to their faces still maintaining a long distance away from them. “Who the hell are you? And, what exactly are you doing in here?” Alex faced her a dead stare walking closer to her with every pang of anger. “That shouldn't be the question you are many to ask at this crucial hour, Alex. You have less than five minutes to surrender yourself to the police unless..”“Unless what? You guys can't do anything at all. All that you all are known for is to keep on making empty promises and threats.” James gawked at her without any

    “Why are you still raising an alarm? Common! Take my life, Alex.” Mason was bold enough to give him a swift response without feeling an iota of fear in him. He was ready to take the bull by the horns and face him one-on-one without feeling scared of how it would feel once he pulls the trigger. “I can see that you've grown so many balls, Mason.”Alex placed the pistol on his temple and kept on hitting it on his temple repeatedly.“Do your worst, Alex. You can't do anything to me just pull the trigger and let's end it once and for all.” He yelled at him with his heart panting and racing so fast. “I love the way you have so much balls in you.” He smiled at him and jerked him off his shoulder. “I don't give a fuck about you Alex. Do your worst and let's end it once and for all.”“Alex, why the hell are you trying to pity this bastard? Pull the trigger and let's get ourselves out of this place once and for all.” Lucas commanded him instructing him to take the lead. “Okay, boss. I'll do

    Alex patiently waited for Andrew to say a word but the young man was still bold and courageous that he didn't even bother to flinch or utter anything at all. “I can see that you've grown so big that you are no longer scared about your life anymore.” Alex out of annoyance tightened his neck so hard. “You..can’t…do.. anything..to me.” He struggled to say a word but kept on persisting as he stuttered with his words. “Is this how stubborn you are? I can see that you are just as stubborn as your son.” Lucas moved over to where Alex stayed beside Andrew still holding onto the pistol. “Poor Mason! Won't you tell your father not to be stubborn and say his final words of prayer? You can see that I've been lenient to you and your dad.” He moved his face closer to him. A roar of laughter came out of Mason's mouth after hearing the words gradually coming out of Lucas's mouth. The loud laughter triggered Lucas to stand up from his squatted position and angrily grabbed Mason's neck so tight t

    “What!” Lucas and Alex chorused together with shock all over their faces after hearing the truth coming out of her mouth. Mason waved his head over to his dad with a thousand and one question going through his mind, “Dad, can you hear what this young lady is saying? Is she truly my mother?”“Mason, you don't have to listen to everything that she is saying. Naomi is a blatant liar and I'm certain the major reason why she is in here is to cause destruction.” Andrew shoved his chair trying to come closer to where his son sat. “Really? Is that what you've been feeding my son with, Andrew?” She kicked her leg on his chair with anger gracing her voice. “How dare you lie to his face, Andrew? Why didn't you tell him that I've been there for you through thick and thin? Why are you causing so much harm and pain to this young boy?”“Pain?” Andrew chuckled out in euphoria. “If anyone should be talking about pain it should be me and not your stupid ass, Andrew.” She blurted out at him. “Dad,

    He Is My Son

    The room suddenly went cold as everyone threw their gaze on the young lady whom Andrew had addressed as Naomi. The poor aged man cleaned his eyes by blinking it twice since his hands had been tied to the chair while rying to be sure that he wasn't dreaming at all. “Naomi, is that you? Are you the one?” He gave her this shocking expression while still trying to fight what he had just witnessed. “Dad, do you know her? Where do you know her from?” Mason blinked his eyes trying to understand the reason why his father was shocked to see the fair young lady standing at the entrance of the door without saying anything. "The last time I checked, Dad. I haven't seen you with a lady so who is she to you." he pressed further to know more. “Will you shut up your mouth, Mason?” Alex smacked his lips with his back hands instructing him to keep shut. Mason closed his eyes in regret, waiting and hoping for the time he would be free from this chair so he would be able to show Alex the type of man
