"I am feeling good, sir," he says, his voice strained as he forces out a smile. A scoff escapes my throat, threatening to burst into laughter at the absurdity. Did Albert just address me as "sir"? "I don't think you're feeling good, Mr. Albert," I say, my voice cool and composed. As the tables have turned, I can't help but wonder how he truly feels. "Now that the table has turned around, how are you feeling?" I ask again. "I'm very sorry, sir," Albert stammers, his apology laced with remorse, I am very sure it's now cleared to him that he fûck up a big time. "I know I have committed a great offense. Please forgive me, pardon me for this, Mr. Chairman," he says, his voice filled with a mixture of regret and desperation.President Karen's phone rings out loud, causing her to momentarily break her gaze and glance down at the screen. Her eyes quickly snap up, glaring at Arbert, a clear signal of her annoyance. "I'll excuse you now," President Karen says curtly, her voice indicating th
"You don't have to thank me," I said coolly, my voice laced with a hint of detachment. "I am only doing my work, after all," I continued, my voice conveying an air of indifference. "And you shouldn't expect me to be nice to you," I added pointedly, "because you're never nice to me." As I finished speaking, he nodded his head swiftly, as if acknowledging the truth behind my words. There was a hint of resignation in his eyes, as if he had finally come to accept the reality. "I am ready to face whatever you have in store for me," he said, his voice tinged with desperation. It was as if he had resigned himself to the fact that he had no choice but to endure whatever challenges awaited him. Unable to contain myself, a slight smile danced upon my lips, a mixture of satisfaction and perhaps even a touch of amusement at his predicament. It was a fleeting momentary expression, quickly masked by my composed demeanor. "You may now return to your office," I said curtly, dismissing him with a ca
"I am sorry for stealing the document. I know I didn't deserve your mercy, but please don't fire me." His words were filled with remorse."Common Mike, you should stop this already. I don't like what you are doing, you are making me feel bad. I should be saying sorry for getting to use your false identity and for lying to you several times despite asking me," I moved closer to him, and he stares at me in disbelief. "I am the one that was supposed to be apologizing, not you" His voice crackled as I chuckled at his word."You don't have to, you are a good person with good intentions. If not for your sake, I wouldn't get to the root of Mr. Smith's games. I love the person you are, please don't stop doing good" my phrases reassuring as bit his teeth somberly.",Thank you so much, Mr. Chairman" I smirk, skeptical."I guess Stephen looks good on you. So call me that. And again I love the way you stood up for me. Some people still see me as a gold digger when I didn't even have a slight cha
Chapter 34"We came here together, but they went to see their mom, Mrs. Logan replies, and I nod positively."I guess you can't wait to see us" a lady looking more like President Karen said, coming inside. She's a tall, slim lady. She's putting on a pair of jeans and a crop top that reveal barely half of her stomach. Her tiny eyeball makes her look more like a goddess, and that curly golden hair was packed In a ponytail that gave her a bad girl look, her beautiful smile was heartwarming, and I could see President Karen's face in this beautiful creature, she's indeed a model. She walked elaborately to me, and my heart skipped a beat. "Hi, I am Nathaniel, and here comes my twin brother Nathan. I have heard alot about you lately, and I must congratulate you on this position." She said softly as I shook hands with her. Her hands looked so soft and lovely, and I couldn't understand the feeling I was getting."I am Stephen, you are welcome. I hope we have a lot of time to catch up together
Chapter 35 "I understand the financial aspect of it," she finally responded in a neutral tone, "but it's important for me to prioritize my well-being as well. I need some time to rest and recharge before taking on any new commitments." She says before clicking on the the phone, I guess she was trying to end the call. President Karen's expression softened, nodding in understanding. "Your health and well-being should always come first, my dear. They can always reschedule or find another opportunity that aligns better with your needs." Nathaniel chimed in with a supportive tone. "Absolutely, remember that taking care of yourself is crucial. There will be plenty of other amazing opportunities awaiting you." With a grateful nod, she acknowledged their understanding. Sometimes, it was necessary to listen to one's own needs."You guys should go back to the house; we will meet later," President Karen said, nodding to them. They were a lively bunch, but Natalie stood out among them, a true
Chapter 36"Let them in," I replied, my heart racing with anticipation. I needed to be absolutely certain that it was the Clinton family I knew so well. Were my expectations about to become a reality? Doubts lingered as I questioned the authenticity of my secretary's claims. But as the door of my office swung open, the evidence stood before me. Mr. Clinton, accompanied by his wife, gracefully glided inside. They were followed by Susan, who seemed to emit an air of secrecy that immediately caught my attention. As the trio made their entrance, Susan swiftly produced something from her pocket and released it into the air. My curiosity heightened as I pondered the purpose behind this sudden action. What were they plotting? With a smile that could only be described as genuinely warm, Susan congratulate me."Congratulations, my dear husband," she said with a warm smile, rushing to my side. Mr. Clinton and his wife exchanged delighted glances, their own smiles reflecting their joy. "Congrat
"I wasn't crying, you know. She quickly wiped away her tears, trying to maintain her composure."I see that myself, it's obvious something is hitting you up; you can talk to me about what's going on." My eyes were filled with confusion and concern."I am good; I will be fine." Tears couldn't stop rolling down her eyes. "You can confide in me, just calm down and be concise about the issue, I am sure I will be of help to address it" my voice reassuring."Thanks you so much, I finally had someone to talk to." She wiped her tears and took a deep breath."Come with me" I said, and I took her to the poolside."Why are we here by the pool?" She asked, and I chuckled."I think you need a cool place like this, so we can sit by the pool while you tell me what the problem is." She smiles, and I can feel how warm my heart feels."You know what you remind me of my ex. Well, I mean at the beginning of our relationship" she said, and I don't know why I suddenly feel a tinge of profound jealousy."W
"Wait, did she just collect the phone from me? I couldn't believe it. A chuckle escaped my lips before I swiftly took the phone back from her. "Alright, sign the divorce papers first and then we can talk about starting over again," I replied, my voice laced with a hint of amusement. But then she took me by surprise with her response. "There's no need to sign the papers, let's just start over again," she said, sounding sincere. The irony of the situation almost overwhelmed me, and I had to suppress a burst of laughter. "Susan, I think I've given you enough time," I said sternly, my patience wearing thin. "I want those divorce papers ready by tomorrow, or else!" With that, I ended the call, leaving a lingering tension in the air."I thought you wanted to go back to that woman," Nathalie said, her voice filled with disdain. "I can't allow someone who treated my brother poorly to come back into his life." A mixture of surprise and joy washed over me as I realized what she had said. Did
