NO, FORGIVEN, or IT IS JUST IMPOSSIBLE. Thursday evening, Brooks mansion.Annabelle had just had her first session with her teacher, who was supposed to brief her about her upcoming role in the family.She had just arrived back in the room, and they were having their dinner ( Herself and Reuben) As they ate, Reuben's phone beepedHe checked it and smiled at Annabelle." Grandpa wants to have a brief meeting with us," Reuben said as he dropped the phone." Us?" Annabelle asked.Reuben nodded." Well, it's kind of urgent, but I don't know what it really is.But wait, Your sister in law will be leaving for school very soon.We have a series of court appearances to make in the next two weeks ahead. From there, she will leave for school, " Annabelle said with a smile." Hmm, I am going to be lonely here, mehn.When you get to work. I will surely miss her.I am quite surprised she had not told me this." Annabelle said.Reuben smiled and grinned." Remember I am here, and besides, you are
SOONER THAN EXPECTEDAfter the discussion about their response to the meeting, Grandpa nodded and heaved a sigh before speaking." Alright, the time she gave for this meeting is tomorrow afternoon.And I want all of us to be present by then..Do you think the time will be suitable for all of us?" Grandpa asked" I would not be free, but I can spare the time, but Annabelle would be with her teacher by then." Reuben said." Well, I would not be free by then.Tomorrow, I will be working on their lawsuit.Gathering the necessary evidence and speaking with our lawyersI can't make it, " Andrea chirped.Grandpa nodded in the affirmative." Alright then, since we all will be busy by tomorrow, we will schedule the meeting for Saturday.Andrea, prepare the lawsuit very early, and don't forget our proposal letters. Then we can take it from there.If she agrees to our proposal, then we have only one lawsuit, but if she disagrees, then we have a double lawsuit and I bet that will be too dangero
KEEN TO SEE THE ENDGrandpa nodded in affirmation as he heard that.“ That is a good development then.I would like to see the look on her face when she gets to know all these things.”|Grandpa said and grinned loudly. Reuben nodded and smiled." But what was it about? What did Williams do that made them capture him and made him tongueless?" Andrea asked in surprise." Well, from my sources, he had intimacy with Louisa and kept a video of it.He tried using that to blackmail them, and Grandma Anderson did that to him after getting the video.Unfortunately, my sources have it that there are still copies of the videos somewhere with Williams that the Andersons do not know about." Reuben exclaimed." Wow, this is really serious.As much as this guy offended them, he did not deserve to be treated that way.The law will still fight for him when the police get to know about this." Andrea replied." Well, the guy is still in the hospital receiving treatment, and the police are still inv
HANGOVERGrandma Anderson woke up from her deep sleep.She stretched lazily in her bed and sat up slowly.Glancing at the wall clock, she realized that it was already another morning.She heaved a sigh and bowed her head quietlyShe needed to prepare for the two meetings she had in the day.She picked up her phone and saw that she had received some new mail from Mr Brooks.She smiled, thinking her invitation had been honored.She read the message, and it stated that they could not honor the message on the day and time she had requested. ( Which was in the mid hours of that very day).She was utterly disappointed but calmed down, however, when they stated another day and time for the meeting, pending if she was cool with it.( the mid hours of the next day instead).Grandma dropped her phone and breathed heavily.She had to get ready to go meet her investors.She already knew the outcome of the meeting she was bound to attend, but she just had to be present.Then she remembered she co
TIME FOR A LAST REVIEWGrandma’s car drove in through the big gates of the factory.The driver parked in the lot and got down from the car.He came over to Grandma’s side of the car and opened the door for her.Grandma got down from the car with her handbag in her hand and her mobile phone in the other.She looked around the place.The workers were going about their daily work, and the wholesalers were busy.The n loud noises from the machines were heard in the compound.Grandma heaved a sigh.All the machines around were working perfectly except for a few of them which were in really bad shape.A smile landed on her lips but soon faded away after worry brushed over her soul.Very soon, this beautiful place full of life and hope was going to be dead silent.The workers were going to be in their houses and there would be no one around.The machines will rust away, and the whole place is going to be useless.Nothing could be made out of it.The suppliers who were coming with
THE MEETINGGrandma observed the guests who were just arriving, walking into the conference hall one after the other as they greeted each other and exchanged pleasantries.She heaved a sigh as she observed what was going on.She knew the investors might be thinking she would be there to bring to them some good news.She shook her head in pity for her own self.Then she checked her phone again to see if Louisa had replied to her message, but to her disappointment, there was no message.She breathed heavily in frustration.Although she knew Louisa would not be present at the meeting.She just wished she could speak with her before she went into the conference hall, at least for some few words of encouragement before she got in.She picked up her handbag beside her and go5 out of the car.Glancing at her wristwatch, she realized she had about ten minutes before the meeting started.She walked silently and hurriedly walked to the manager's office to spend the rest of the time there.A
REALLY PITIFUL FOR THEMGrandma raised up her head and looked at the man.She heard it right, and she knew that was exactly what he was going to say.The man looked around him.All the others around him nodded in agreement to what he was saying." We have worked with you for a long while, but I'm afraid and sorry to say this, but I think there is a misappropriation of funds somewhere in the company.If you can't rectify and correct that, it might have been okay, but to be running at a loss in the company, that is never okay.We run our businesses at a profit and can not afford to lose everything just because somebody somewhere is spending our money.I'm afraid I will have to pull out of the company"One other man said, and again, the rest nodded in affirmation with wicked smiles on their faces.The first man took out his briefcase and brought out a brown envelope." This is my withdrawal letter and the signing off of the contract I am pulling out of the company and expect to see m
THE CONSEQUENCES OF THE PULL OUTGrandma was shocked at what she saw over there.She saw her driver approaching from the crowd with a stack of envelopes in his hand. The driver wore a sad face. " What is going on over there?" Grandma asked the driver. She had seen what was going on, yet she wanted to understand if it was exactly what she was thinking.." The media men and women are here, and the people are having a talk with them.They are talking about what happened in the meeting.They are saying they have pulled out of the business, and that was the main reason they came around.". The driver answered Grandma shook her head in pity for herself.Then a thought struck her.If she stood there for a minute more, the media men might see her and might try to interrogate her too." Let's get out of here now."Grandma said to the driver and walked hurriedly back to the car.The driver quickened his steps and got into the car before her.It looked like it was already late as she had been
