It was already getting dark at Andrew's mansion as he sat tirelessly on the couch without giving a response to Aunty Margaret with his tired face focused on the tick tack of the clock. The clock made a funny sound as Andrew’s eyes couldn't remove his eyes of of what he was watching. “Sir, do you want me to get the water warm for you?” She bowed her head faced to the ground afraid to see through his eyes. “I don't want to do anything, Aunty Margaret. I just want to be here watching and waiting until everything slowly alligns.”“Alligns? What do you want to align? Huh? Don't you have everything figured out?” She looked at him feeling so suspicious about the word he said to explain his present situation.“Aunty Margaret, if only you know exactly what I've been through then you won't be telling me to take it easy at all.” He rolled his eyes tossing himself to the other side of the couch not ready to have a proper conversation with someone who couldn't understand his grieve. Aunty Marga
Mason grabbed the steering wheel immediately, the call hung up, and changed the gear before moving the car at a fast speed. He didn't even wait for the traffic light to turn green before he moved the car. He was careless about the traffic rules and regulations because the only thing that mattered to him at that point was to save Precious. She has endured and condoned their indifferences for far too long and it's only a wicked person will ignore her present state and act as if all is well. He fired on the car at a very fast speed not looking at whatever cars that were passing and coming from behind. The only thing that kept on playing in his head was how he was going to rescue her from whatever plans Louisa and Anna had against her.“Common man! Watch your wheels.” One of the drivers yelled at him because of the way he carelessly drove not minding the traffic rules.Mason didn’t pay attention to the words of the poor driver. The only thing playing in his mind was how many minutes lef
They were shocked to their bone marrow as they heard the identical voice from behind. They weren't expecting Anna and Louisa to find out about their whereabouts not to even make mention of them requesting for the only thing that can prove as evidence for the crime they've committed. “Huh? What did you say?” The secretary asked all over again not to be sure that she heard their words correctly. Louisa running out of patience, “Are you deaf? What do you mean by what I said? Do you want me to give you a resounding slap before you come back to your senses?” Lousia yelled at her by giving her a condescending look. “Must you raise your voice at every chance you get? What happens to talking to us like a grown-up adult?” The assistant secretary stood up ready to defend her secretary in whatever situation and circumstances she finds herself in. “I think I'll handle this myself, dear. I don't want you to have any problems with her after all I was the one she asked the question and not you.
All eyes stopped focusing on each other as they threw their focus to where the voice was coming from and how familiar the voice sounded.Louisa was star-struck as she saw the man standing at the edge of the door and who instructed her to stop. She gave a glance at Anna while waiting for someone to at least say a word and stop staring at each other’s eyes.“Finally! Didn’t I tell you that he is around? From the way he drove carelessly into the compound I could easily detect that he is around.” The assistant secretary said to her boss as she finally broke the long silence that disrupted them from talking.“Wow! Mason, is that you? Like, are you truly the one?” The secretary moved her legs slowly walking towards where Mason stood with her jaw half open.“Yes! I’m the Mason that you’ve all been looking and waiting for.” He spread his arms wide open for them to fall into his arms.“I can’t believe that you will show up, Mason. Thank you for showing up when they were about to bully us and s
Mason heaved a deep sigh of relief as he slowly placed his hands on his hips before saying a word after looking at her from her head down to her toes, “Precious, I want you out of my presence right now.” He instructed her flinging his hands over to the door so he could show her where she needed to go. “Drop that filthy thing you call a hand, Mason. As far as I’m concerned you won't leave this place until you and Anna are done having solid conversation”“Solid conversations indeed. What exactly is solid about that low-life person? She can't even have a proper conversation without making use of vulgar words and there you are stopping him from seeing someone who really needs his help. My friend, if you don't have any meaningful things to say then make use of the door.”“Will you shut that little thing you call a mouth” Anna fired back at her without withholding her emotions. She was sick and tired of watching the young assistant move and mouth carelessly while still defending Mason. Sh
The evening was quietly turning into dawn as Andrew kept a sharp gaze at Aunty Margret while she kept on advising him and airing her honest opinion based on the short information he gave her based on how he felt. Since he came across to know Aunty Margret he had never for once spoken so eloquent and vast in knowledge as how she just displayed it to him within the past few minutes of their conversation. One thing he noticed about her was the fact that she pays attention to details. She isn't one of these people who doesn't wait to hear other people's opinions and points of view before jumping into the conversation. These past few minutes Andrew realized that Aunty Margret endeavors to give him more time to express himself in a well-detailed manner before she goes ahead to give him her own honest opinion while still offering a standard solution. She adjusted herself on the couch to make herself a little bit comfortable while signaling to Andrew to say a word rather than give her tha
Andrew felt a little bit relieved as he dragged his legs up the stairs at every step he took. He felt so proud of himself for finally opening up to someone and being a little bit vulnerable to that person. One thing about Andrew is that he finds it very difficult to open up with people and that's because he has past experiences of trusting people, especially what Alex did to him when he gave him his full trust only to be paid back with something that could hurt someone's feelings but he wasn't even ready to talk about Alex one more time before his mood gets to change. “Sir, will you be coming down once you shower so I can start preparing dinner for you?” Aunty Margret asked him as he was making his way to the upper room. “Coming down? I don't think I have the appetite to eat anything right now. I feel so good and not in the mood to eat.” He responded to her without taking any pause on the stairs.“Sir Andrew, I don't think that will be possible under my watch at all. I can't afford
All eyes were on him as they waited for him to say a word and not be mute. Everyone wanted to hear all that he had to say desperately as they stared into the thin air desperately. “Have you suddenly gone deaf and dumb all of a sudden?” Lousia rasied her voice at him with her eyes looking at him disdainfully.“Shut up, Louisa. I don’t know why you enjoying attacking and imposing yourself on people unwillingly. If you’ve begun to crush on him let’s know rather than looking for every means and way to make him feel uncomfortable.” The young assistant returned back the energy that was offered to her.“Can you hand over the evidence to me?” Mason finally spoke up with his face turning over to the young assistant.The young assistant gave a hilarious laugh for some minutes as she placed her tiny fingers into her ears just to be sure that she heard him correctly.“Sir Mason, are you sure you know exactly what you are asking for? Do you really have an idea what this evidence can do for us?” H
