James was on his way to a restaurant to eat, and he decided to play a little music to get him in high spirits.He got into his car, and turned on the music to a minimal level. While driving, he caught sight of someone he had known for a long time now, but he lost contact with her.“Hold on! Isn't that Amelia?” He squinted his eyes to be certain he was seeing right.He rubbed his eyes one more time to be certain, but she was the one. She looked so much like the Amelia he once knew, and she seemed to be waiting for a cab.James quivkly parked to one side of the lane, and got down from the car. He adjusted his clothes, and ensured he looked cool as he was walking up to her.Before he got to her, Amelia looked in his direction and screamed, happy to see him. She ran gently like a lady, and hugged him tight.“James, is this really you?” she exclaimed in surprise and awe of how he looked, and then James smiled.“It's me. You now look so gorgeous.”“Come on, drop it.” She giggled, and slappe
From that moment, James and Amelia hung out more often, and James ensured that it didn't affect his work for Charles or sort.He ensured he did all he was supposed to do, and never left any stones unturned. Today, they planned to go on an outing, and Amelia was really excited to go on an outing with him.Having so much fun with him was one of her dreams back then, which came true, now. If they told her that she was going to have James back into her life, and they were going to get close so quickly, she wouldn't believe it.“So, I hope you're ready for the big day?” James asked, feeling elated.“Of course! More than you could ever be.” Amelia teased. Amelia prepared breakfast for both of them, and they were enjoying quite the delicacy of a feast, literally. While having breakfast, they had so much to talk about, and they kept laughing about it like they were not going to stopThey were more like the kind of lovebirds which one would wish for.After breakfast, they got ready for their
Amelia stood up abruptly and walked outside, then James followed her to know what happened, and why her expression suddenly changed.“What’s going on, Amelia?” He asked, out of concern.“I… I need to get back to my hometown to settle something.”“What's that? Did something bad happen?” James asked, worried about Amelia.“You don't have to worry about it. I have to go now.” Amelia said as she turned, about to leave as fast as she could, but James held her back.“You have to speak to me. If it's that urgent, tell me when you're going to come back.” James said as he held her hand.Then Amelia calmed down, and looked into James’ eyes apologetically. “I don't know when I'll be back, James. I just don't know, but I'll definitely be back. Just let me go, right now.” Amelia said, staring into his eyes with affection.She didn't want to leave, but she had to, and she also had no intention to tell James what exactly was going on, as she planned to end the issue once and for all in her hometown.
Mr. Lincoln squeezed his face, annoyed by how Charles had hit the right spot. If he hadn't found the right word to use against him at this moment, he wouldn't have had to pay.“Alright, I'll pay.” Mr. Lincoln grudgingly agreed, and immediately paid for the premium card before anything important was done without him.They were all here for shares which all the influential men who were here, were interested in investing in, including Charles.They were interested in registering as a shareholder for the investment. “Alright, so you can all invest depending on how many percent of shares you want to attain.” The person who was put in charge to conduct this, spoke up.Charles had it in mind to attain all the shares completely, but as he checked the points he had, and converted them into money, they amounted to 3 million dollars.“Shit! Why did it have to be now?” He uttered in his mind.“Mr. Charles, how many percent of shares would you like to acquire?” The man asked, and Charles bit his l
Charles asked the driver to turn around immediately, and while his guards were baffled, and wondered what was going on, they had no choice than to stay calm.Charles was beginning to have different thoughts about what Angela had to say about the poisoning. He was beginning to suspect that he might have detained the wrong person.Although, he felt a bit excited about it not being the maid, because he really wanted to believe that she wasn’t the one who tried to eliminate his life for personal gains.As soon as he got to the station, they allowed him to see Angela, one on one.“So, this can make you rush over to the station to see me.” Angela scoffed, and smacked her lips. “Get straight to the point. You know about the poison. Speak!” Charles urged her, not ready to dilly-dally around.“Alright, actually, I thought about this deeply. I thought about what I could do to make you know that I have really changed, and deserve a second chance.”“So?”“I decided to confess of my wrong doings,
Charles moved closer to Mrs. Campbell with a confused look on his face.“What’s going on, Mrs. Campbell?” “Welcome back, Mr. Charles.” She smiled weakly. “I’m just glad that my name was cleared, and that I have been released. Thank you for ensuring that they released me today.” She appreciated him.Charles smiled, but he wasn’t satisfied with her answer yet, and he was waiting for more.“I’m grateful you gave me a chance to work in this beautiful home, but at this point, I think I may not be able to handle working here again. I would love to go back to my hometown.” She said to Charles, and gave the floor a long stare.Charles was a bit shattered because he knew he let her down, and she was no longer comfortable staying with him if she wasn’t able to gain his full trust.He didn’t know how to make it up to her even when he really wanted her to stay, but he thought deeply to himself that it could probably be for the best if she left.He couldn’t really trust people because of all the b
Charles got to the bottom of the stairs, and was wondering what his next action should be. If he had brought his phone along, he would have dialed James’ number, and his security guards as well.“How did they break into my house? They must be experts at this for them to have achieved this.” He thought to himself. Then he saw the shape of something sitting on the center table. He couldn’t make out what it was exactly, but he noticed there were other things there.He slowly found his way to the switch, and when he did, he turned on the light.“Surprise!” Vera and James voiced out together.Charles was dumbfounded, and still couldn’t believe his eyes. He never expected James and Vera to come to his home to throw a surprise party or whatever they intended to do right now.It was even more surprising to have Vera do this as well.“You both had me there. What’s the surprise for?” Charles asked, out of curiosity.“Well, you’ve been working a lot, lately. So, we decided to throw a small party
Charles stared at Simon blankly for a few moments, unable to say a word. There was no way he really caught on that easily. He was probably just joking. How could Simon see him at one glance, and decide he was there in disguise?That was just plain impossible.“Disguise?” He finally asked, finding the right words. “Yeah. Just look at you.”“I don't know what you're talking about.” Charles replied, going back to the grass he was trimming.“You think you can trick me, eh? You're no lawn mower. Look at the crappy way you're trimming the grass. You think anyone can be a lawn mower because it's a kind of underrated job here? Who are you?” Simon insisted, moving even closer to Charles. “You keep saying words I don't understand, and you're bothering me. I'm trying to concentrate here.”“You're someone else. I know it.”“I'm not anyone else. I'm just Andrews Jacob who's seeking employment.” Charles snapped, accidentally taking out his frustration, and fear on the grasses, and cutting them in
