The alarm clock rang continuously as soon as it clocked 5 am in the morning. Mason rolled from one side of the bed to another trying to wrap himself up together. He never knew that such a day would come so fast. He grumbled for a moment before gathering the strength to step out of his bed. He headed over to his blue tooth speaker and connected it to his phone to play a cool soul music. “Phew! Today is going to be a long day.” He stretched his body carefully and laid on the floor getting ready to do his push up. After doing the other push ups in a row he stood up from the floor and headed straight to the bathroom to brush his teeth and shower. Knock! Knock! A sound came from the door of his room as he was brushing his teeth. “Who is there?” He asked with the foamy tooth paste in his mouth. “It's me, Aunty Margaret I want to inform you that your hot water of which you requested of me last night to boil against tomorrow morning is ready.” “Oh! I almost forgot about that but you c
“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.” “Alri
“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
