“Guard shut the damn door and order everyone to come inside immediately,” Mason ordered the guards after watching the dismissal of Selene and Alex. “Alright boss I’ll do just that.” The personal guard for Andrew shut the door and ordered everyone to move to the sitting room based on Mason’s command. Some of the maids and servants of Andrew grumbled a little while dragging their feet to meet at the sitting room where Mason stood. “Sir, they are all here.” The guard stretched out his hands and presented all the maids and servants working for his father as they lined up according to their heights. Mason who was still trying to process everything he just heard dragged the dining chair and sat on it with his feet stomping on the ground. The servants and Maids of his father moved their eyes according to every movement and action he took. After so many minutes of silence he sat upright and cleared his throat, “I know you all just witnessed all that just happened right now between Selen
“Yes, son! And, for Alex, I’ve ever known him to be greedy and covetous but I kept keeping a close tab on him seeing that if he stops working for me he’ll remain jobless but I had no idea that he was secretly plotting my downfall.” “Father, everyone knows that you’ve always found your way around people and that’s why you keep helping them despite your instinct telling you otherwise.” “My Son, what would you have me do? Do you want me to be relaxed knowing fully well that I can be of help to this particular person who needs me.” “I understand everything you are trying to portray to me but father these people don’t care about you at all.” “No! Mason, not everyone is like the person you thought they were. There are still some good eggs amidst the bad eggs.” “But Father you can’t read their heart at all. Some people are wicked and cold-hearted in their black hearts.” “I understand everything you are trying to say son but sometimes you have to consider some people's feelings.” “Real
Lucas chuckled for some seconds, “Are you sure you are ready to hear the hot tea I’m about to spill out.”“Do you think I came here to play at all? I’m forever ready to hear whatever you want to tell me.”“James, how about we wait for some minutes and let’s eat so when we are done eating then I can start by telling you the gist and everything that happened?”James moved his lips around his mouth and thought about the suggestion that Lucas gave him and nodded his head in disagreement, “No! Lucas, I’m not in support of that one. What exactly do you want to tell me about that is too heavy for you to spill out?”“James, even you that is sitting here by the time you hear what I’m about to say to you, you’ll also be in shock.”“Then, tell me man, and stop keeping me in silence for too long.” James who wasn't finding it funny anymore with the hanky panicky game yelled at him. Lucas looked and whispered to James, “Calm down bro. You don't deserve to be raising your voice at me in an environm
Mason hurried downstairs and picked up the car keys on the table where it was to make his way outside. “Excuse me, sir! I can see that you are about to step out and this is not about me stepping my boundaries but I'd love to know if Mr. Andrew needs anything at all so that I can go serve him.” Aunty Margaret stopped Mason to question him. “Uhmm…Not really. My father doesn't need anything at all. All that he needs right now is nothing but rest. Am I clear at all?” “Alright sir. I'll make sure that we keep a close eye on him so that no one will harm him.” She assured him with a slight and tender Pat on his chin. “Thank you very much, Aunty Margaret. And, yes I'm about stepping out and I don't know for how long I'll get outside.” “Just make sure you stay safe and return home in your right shape.” She warned him with her sober words while taking her leave to head back to her duty post. Mason came back to the sitting room and them all, “Everyone I want you all to come to the sitt
“No, you don’t have to stress yourself to do that I’ll call her by myself.” Mason smiled back at him without revealing his face in the hoodie.“Okay, sir. In case you need anything at all. I’ll be in my security room.” he pushed the door of his room and made his way inside.“Finally! I had no idea that this would be an easy task to accomplish.” he tiptoed into the passage before opening the door.Mason kneeled closer to the door to check if there was any sound before he went inside the sitting room. He pushed the door slowly and tip-toed in there.Anna who was in the kitchen heard the sound of the door shut even though Mason tried his best not to hear the sound. “James, is that you? I thought you won’t waste too much time at all.” She thought it was James as she spoke.There wasn’t a single response at all from James. She dropped the potatoes that she was cutting in the kitchen and rinsed her hand before coming over to the sitting room. Immediately, Mason heard the footsteps coming t
“Mason, you'll have to pay for damages and I'm not playing this time around. You are a Kidnapper and a criminal and I'm sure that's what you've been doing to change your clothes and cars.”As she was talking to him and saying some nasty things about him his phone beeped. Ring! Ring! “Go ahead and pick up your calls. I'm sure one of your clients wants you to go and kidnap another fellow.” Anna ran her mouth at the speed of light. “Shut up for once Anna. Enough!” He eed out in anger. Anna was terrified to see Mason shout at her for the first time she kept shut and didn't utter a word again. Mason picked up his phone and answered the call, “Hello! Who am I on the phone with?”“Sir Mason I'm the police officer that came to your house earlier today and this is me telling you that Alex just confessed to us that Anna didn't send him at all.” Mason was short of words as he froze for some minutes and stared at Anna's eyes in shock. “Why are you looking at me? Common remove your eyes fr
“Anna! Anna!” James stormed into the sitting room with his head almost breaking the door of the room. “Anna, are you at home?” He kept on shouting at the top of his voice. He went over to the kitchen where she had kept the potatoes that she was slicing before Mason attacked her and saw the potatoes scattered on the floor. James picked the potatoes up and whispered under his breath, “Fuck! This is ruined. What might have happened to her?”He rushed upstairs and barged into her room but it was so clean without the presence of anyone in the room at all. “Anna! Anna! Can't you answer me at all?” He checked the bathroom and toilet to check if she was in there but she wasn't in there. James rushed downstairs and headed out of the sitting room walking angrily to where his security guard stood. “Where the hell is Anna?” He asked him looking so serious. “I don't understand what you are trying to say ,sir. The guards put his face on the floor in shame trying not to look into the eyes of
Anna walked into James' house and pushed the door open. Before she could even put in her second leg into the apartment, James had already stopped her with his questions. “Where are you coming from Anna?” James stopped her with his question. “I went to go get something but they didn't have what I wanted.” She answered him dragging her feet to the kitchen. “Anna, do you think I'm a kid? I asked where are you coming for the last time and here you are telling me that you went to get something from the mall.” She paused for a moment and faced him, “James, as you can see I just came back from the mall and I'm stressed please I don't want us to drag this your question. I’ve provided you the answer that you needed so why then do you want to prolong this conversation.” James stood up from the couch and grabbed her hands pinning her to the wall, “Who came here to pay you a visit?” “Get your hand off me, James. You are hurting me and you know it can you release the tightness in your ha
