By morning he found himself waking up to streams of sunlight across his face, he didn't drop the curtains by the window, the sun felt warm against his face, which meant it was already high up in the sky and Robinson would not be home by this time, he stepped downstairs to get a glass of water to drink when he spotted someone giving Robinson an envelope, Robinson was still in his sleepwear like he wasn't even planning to go out of the house today, he ignored what he saw and went to get the water, as soon as he came out of the kitchen Robinson called him and he turned.“Good morning Dad, I'm surprised to see you still in your nightwear”. He said carefully, Robinson had a straight look on his face which meant something was wrong.“I have decided to stay home today to look into a very important issue, call Jimmy and Edward, we all are going to have a very important talk,I have called your mom out already so don't bother with her, she will be out soon”.He turned and went in the direction
The calmness was no longer there as Robinson jumped out of the chair enraged, he was fuming and livid with anger, there was no explanation that she would give, it would not change how she decieved him, Elizabeth shaking already stepped forward but too scared to touch him for fear of what he might do to her, she had never seen him in so much rage before, Jimmy stepped in between them.“Dad, hear her out give her a chance to explain” Robinson gave Jimmy a look that could kill, “I'd advise you stay out of this one Jimmy, there's no need for you to intervene, this is between your mother and I, to find out after all this year's that a son I have put so much into is not actually my son, this proves everything right already, because Jimmy and Edward are quite different from him so I know they are mine”.Elizabeth was on her knees begging, “please I beg of you, do anything you want to me but spare Pius, it's not his fault and he should not pay fory mistakes”. She cried out loud looking at Pi
The silence that follows after Robinson's departure from the room was similar to that of a graveyard, they were all stunned, mostly Jimmy and Edward, Jimmy looked at his mom, “I'm sure he will calm down, maybe you should give him some time to cool off” Elizabeth sighed deeply, “there's no need to worry son, I will leave, I know your father and as it stands he definitely won't want to have anything to do with me ever again, I will leave with Pius now to avoid any more drama, he will want a silent divorce and that I will give him, but my father started this company, even if he wasn't the one that made it to the level it is right now, but I'm still an owner and I will exercise my right, let's go Pius, we shall send for our things later”. She told Pius who was still weakened by how everything turned out.“No, I'm not going anywhere if dad wants to kill me then he should”. Pius cried out.Jimmy went close to Edward and told him to go to his room as the boy was just standing confused. He n
The house was more quiet than it usual state, aside Robinson, Jimmy and Edward in the house, the servants kept mute like they didn't know what was happening even when they heard the raised voices, but the knew it was not in their place to gossip about it lest they feel the wrath of Robinson McPherson, Jimmy left him in his office in search of Edward, it will be too much for him too handle alone, he met him staring outside the window of his room, he was expecting him to be in tears but no Edward was dried eyed and staring vacantly outside.“What are you looking at kiddo?” Jimmy asked him“Nothing really, I'm just wondering where will be right now, it's just so hard to accept that Pius isn't our brother, well he is still our brother, but you know what I mean, even though we weren't really the close bunch I'm not happy that he has to leave, it's just so unimaginable, our home won't remain the same again, and how could he kill his own father, that is highly despicable, I know he can be ma
Pius and Elizabeth stayed in a house in the middle of the city that belonged to Elizabeth, they didn't talk to each other much and he even left her to go see Jessica, he actually thought he wouldn't be seeing her for sometime and now he knew that she was his only solace, fortunately for him Robinson helped clear the mess with Stuart so there was no need for him to fret, although it was more for his own benefit than Pius's, everything Robinson ever did was for his benefit . At Jessica's place he didn't talk much to her before they started making out, he didn't have sex with her for long before he stopped and she knew something was wrong with him,“What's wrong Pius, you look down”.He spoke without thinking, “I killed a man, the man that claimed to be my father”.Jessica was confused and also dumbfounded.“I don't understand you at all, what do you mean you killed a man?”, She asked him to be sure he knows what he is saying at all.“I'm serious Jessica, do you remember the man that I
Somehow, one way or the other the media got wind of the McPherson's ongoing divorce, but could not pin the reason behind the divorce, neither Elizabeth nor Robinson knew who made it known to the public, it could not be any of the lawyers representing either of them as they have been bounded by a contract of secrecy, the news was all over, the mighty McPherson's getting a divorce for reasons they've decided to keep quiet about, but it was known that Elizabeth was trying to get her hands on some of the wealth, in all this happening around them Robinson made sure that Jimmy and Edward were heavily guarded around the clock, always followed wherever they wanted to go to, surprisingly Elizabeth did not go near any of them either, she accepted that she would leave them but not without getting any of the wealth. The case was a long one as they both had strong lawyers defending them, it went on for weeks with the judge having a hard time deciding none of them were willing to reveal the real ca
He arrived late, thirty minutes after the stated time he gave to Tessa, she was standing behind the park with few people around, he went behind her touching her shoulders, she turned round and saw him standing with a plate of burger and a cup, probably with some kind of drink inside, she wasn't okay with the lateness and it showed on her face, she folded her arms across her chest and gave him a pointed look to let him know she didn't like waiting.His face changed into a sad one, “I'm sorry for keeping you waiting, something came up with my mom so I had to help her before leaving”. He lied, he saw how her face changed to one of pity, how easy it was to manipulate her. It was going to be an easy feat for him, he led her to a spot where a couple just stood and cleaned the place for her to sit on. Then he handed her the plate of burgers and drink, she declined saying she wasn't feeling hungry.His face changed again, “Are you afraid to accept this from me, I got it in my way here, don't
As Pius ended the call, Jimmy stood confused, what could have led Tessa to where Pius was or did he kidnap her to get to him?, If that was the case he had gone too far, since Pius and Elizabeth left the house he had cut ties with them and no matter how much Pius called he never returned it, same went for Edward too, but what could he possibly want, he made it clear that he should not come with anybody or Tessa would die, Jimmy believed him, coming from someone who murdered his own father in cold blood, there was nothing he can't do now, killing her will be way too easy, Jimmy could not bring his father into it because he knows Robinson would insist on going in with a full force, if they managed to capture Pius there was no telling what would have become of Tessa, he shoved the thought aside, best to face him head on and know what he wants, at least, he won't want to harm him, he probably needs something important and feels this was the only way to get his attention. Jimmy quickly grab
