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
Jimmy told her to stop but she wouldn't listen, to her she as to be blamed about their being kidnapped, so she must do anything for them to get out of there, the door creaked opened and Pius came into the room, Jimmy shielded Tessa so Pius would not see the piece of broken bottle. He was drinking a can of soda as he walked in.“Sorry to interrupt your sweet moment, but I think I have given you both enough time to chat, now that I have your here I am happy”.Jimmy's face was full of rage, how could his brother do this to him, “what do you really want Pius, you havi made yourself clear, tell me what you want I'll give it to you so just let us go”.Pius laughed hysterically, “look at the proud son of Robinson McPherson asking me what I want, aren't you a little to curious?, Well since you are so eager and don't want to wait I'll tell you before I do what I want, I want you dead Jimmy”. As he said so the color of his eyes became dark, so dark that one could feel the murderous intent in th
Jimmy wasn't comfortable with what his father planned to do, “no dad, I already told you, he's been taken care of already, he won't bother us again that I can assure you that he won't bother us, just leave for the sake that he was once your son”.Robinson looked directly into Jimmy's eyes and shook his head, his love for his brother might be his weakness, if the tables were turned Pius would never treat Jimmy well, he wasn't happy with the injury inflicted on his son at all.“I assume you let him go, even as you had the upper hand to finish him, remember this son, Pius is not who you think he is, you might still consider him your brother but look at what he did to you, he must have been planning it for a while now that's why he had to find a way to get you and he knew it was Tessa, you can't keep on protecting him, can't you see that he is dangerous?”. Robinson was not taking it easy on him at all.“You even went to him without telling me, I asked you and you looked me in the eye poin
Pius blacked out and in the floor with his bloodied and swollen face could not feel his body as he woke up, his body ached and sent painful shots to his brain, he looked around expecting to be in a cell with Robinson standing outside and watching him with an evil glare, but it was the same room he had out Jimmy and Tessa, the memory of being pounded to a pulp flashed across his mind and he hated it, he knew he should have come with a few people but he believed he could handle it by himself, that was the price to pay for not listening to Jessica, and she would somehow taunt him for it, he tried getting up but the pain he felt was more severe than he imagined, he picked his phone to call Jessica and told her to come pick him up, she insisted to know what happened but he didn't tell her. All he wanted was to get out of there immediately, she came looking for him and was shocked to see him in the state he was in.“What happened here, where is Jimmy and the girl?”. She asked inquisitively,
Pius felt Elizabeth was holding back, she could have gone with full force if she wanted to. It doesn't matter if Robinson had more resources than she did, as far as he was concerned she still had connections in high places and it will be best to make good use of it now that the need arises. Elizabeth on the other hand had more to ask him, aside from what he attempted to carry out on Jimmy. Pius noticed the uncomfortable stare she gave him, “just spill it out mom, out with whatever is in your mind instead of giving that look, it makes me feel like there's a hole through me and you're just gaping right through it”.“Don't talk to me like that, remember I'm still your mother, and I'm just wondering who that girl is, interesting thing I find about her is that, it seems I have met her somewhere before I can quite place my finger on it, but I don't like her, she has an awful aura around her and is not fit to be around you, I'm sensing she would be a bad influence”.“Mom, don't go there, if
Jimmy talked to Robinson and as much as Robinson tried he could not locate either Elizabeth or Pius, the many attempted threats made him double up security around the house and the firm, they were never outside without body guards, with time Jimmy was done with his internship and so did Tessa, Edward proceeded to collect and tobinsoy made sure that it was out of the country and he was accompanied by eligible body guards. As soon as Jimmy was done with college Robinson announced him as his successor, it filled the tabloids and news blogs all over the world carried it. There was an event hosted by Robinson to celebrate the achievements of his consortium and Jimmy as his successor, it was in this event that they also attempted their attack on Jimmy, thankfully the place was heavily secured and a few properties got destroyed but no one got hurt.It all happened when Robinson was busy showing off Jimmy to various business associates, telling them that his son was a business genuis and can
