On the other hand, Charles and James had discovered that Vera was no longer where they left her.

“Vera!” Charles and James both called out her name, beginning to get worried that something had happened.

“Where could she have gone to?” James uttered, feeling really anxious about the situation.

They had checked the CCTV to be certain if she had probably gone out of the house; probably she couldn’t mention that she had to leave, but even the CCTV didn’t record her leaving.

“Oh, my goodness!” Andrew exclaimed, although his voice wasn’t loud.

“What’s wrong?” Charles asked as he walked up to him in case he probably had an idea of what could have happened.

Andrew didn’t say a word, but he immediately headed out to the room where he had shown them his tech products as first, and both Charles and James followed after him immediately, trying to understand find out what was going on.

As Andrew got into the room, he headed straight for the door which was out of boundaries, and then he checked the

    MELISSA’S POVI was back to Lord Daniel’s mansion, and I sat in my room, feeling down. How did I manage to get into this trouble? It’s just as that lady said to me that I would end up in a battle ground between both of them, and I would be like the grass that suffers when elephants fight. Recalling that, I decided to go to the basement and ask a few questions. I stood up from the bed, and walked out of the room. I looked left and right in the hallway, and tiptoed out of the hallway. On getting to the sitting room, I looked around to be certain there was no one lurking around anywhere. I knew it was because I was about to do something which could cost me my life, or make Lord Daniel torture me, that I was carefully walking.As soon as I got to the stairs leading to the basement, it felt as if a huge rock was dropped in my heart. I felt like my blood became cold.“You can do this, Melissa.” I muttered under my breath.I walked down the stairs, step by step, careful not to make a noise.

    VERA’S POV Here I was, right before the college. I couldn’t believe I was sent to study fashion designing. Out of all courses in the world, I had to go for fashion designing. Somehow, I just felt it within me that fashion designing was way too low compared to what I could do.I had this feeling that I was destined to do something more innovative, but I couldn’t just fathom what it was, at this point.Anyways, I am thankful, still, because I could still manage fashion designing. It was still a reputable course, with a promising future. I walked into the building, and found the class I was to have this morning.I was late, and it was so weird as half of the class turned their heads to look at me.“Miss whatever, this should be your first and last time you come in to my class late. I am Professor Darwin and I do not tolerate both lateness and laziness in my class.” He spoke sternly, and I nodded, pursing my lips out of embarrassment.About half of the class laughed, making things worse,

    Vera felt hopeless and like she was doomed. She knew how important it was for a lady to have her purity to herself, and it was obvious that these guys would still ask for sex some other time, and there’s no way in the world that she would be able to decline their request and gradually, she would be their underdog with no respect.Before anything else could happen, someone grabbed her arm out of nowhere, and was able to dodge some hits from the Pride Boys. Vera had no time to see who it was; all she just wanted at that moment was to get far away from them, without them having to achieve the bad goal they had of her.As they got out of the school, they kept on running, and this time, Vera had the time to look at who it was.“Who are you? And why did you save me from them?” She asked inquisitively.At least, anyone would like to know who their savior is and what pushed them to save them.“I’m Andrew, but I will tell you the rest of the details, as soon as we get to a safe place.” Andrew s

    James overheard the conversation that went on between Charles and Louis and he moved closer to Charles.“Could it be her man? You know, recently, she has been acting like she someone has come into her life.” James said.“Does that give him the right to act this way towards the man he presumes to be her boss?” Charles uttered, feeling outright disrespected.“I understand. Probably he’s just scared that something might have happened to her. You know, when the love is just blooming, they act so mad in love.”“None of what you’re saying is helping right now.”“I want you to track the caller, and track his moves, just so we know what he’s up to.” Charles instructed, feeling uneasy about the call.He felt uneasy because he truly couldn’t get in touch with vera, which meant he couldn’t produce her to her boyfriend. He also couldn’t explain where she went to, because if he explained that she’s on a trip, she ought to be reachable, and no CCTV or airline would record her leaving the city or cou

    Vera gasped in shock, and moved a few steps backwards.“I hope you’re not planning to run, because that would only aggravate the situation.” Charles uttered.Vera couldn’t believe he would actually make attempt to arrest her.“Charles, but I just said I didn’t do it, and I don’t understand how the money was withdrawn.”“It is boss, to you. And what kind of secretary are you if you claim you don’t know how the money went missing. Yet, you’re acting like you know nothing about it. If you must know, I’m currently highly disappointed in you.”Not long after he said that, a knock came on the door, and Charles urged the person to come in.“Boss, what’s going on? The cops are headed to your office.” James voiced out, looking quite concerned.But then, Charles didn’t say a word, and he had to look at Vera who was silent. Her head was dropped down like she was too embarrassed to face him.“What’s going on?” James asked again, in a low tone as his eyes drifted from Charles to Vera.“If you’re re

    VERA'S POVI was lost in thoughts while walking back home. I felt so troubled, lost, dejected, and tired of it all. I couldn’t believe that Lord Daniel truly had his eyes on me in the school and what was more surprising was that it was my professor.Now, I was in trouble seeing as Professor Darwin was ready to destroy my life if I didn’t do his bidding.“Oh, gosh! What do I do about this?” I stomped my feet like a pouting child.“Is there anything wrong?” Kavon questioned, out of the blue.I didn’t notice that I had almost gotten home until I looked up at Kavon and then I glanced at the mansion.“Uhm… N…nothing.” I replied, then I walked into the mansion.When I got into my room, I sat on the bed like a lifeless being. Thinking back to when Professor Darwin asked me to have sex with him, I felt frustrated.“I can’t have sex with that man. No. There has to be another way around this.” I muttered under my breath as I stared at the ceiling.My eyes gradually closed as they became heavy,

    “Do you think Andrew could have gotten into the right world and seen her?” James asked as he stared at the time machine worriedly.“Well, even if it’s a problem to find her, if he finds her, that’s good. But when he does, I feel the major problem is trying to convince her. You know how Vera is.” Charles spoke, staring into blank space.“That’s true. Even apart from her being a hard nut to crack, anyone who is appeared to, all of a sudden, and is told they don’t belong to that world, would find it difficult to believe. It’s more like coming to me right now, and telling me I don’t belong in this world. I’m going to put up a fight, and run as far as I can, from the weirdo.” James blurted out.Charles smiled because he was right. No one would want to believe a such a thing, not even him. It’s only a child one could easily convince.On the other hand, Andrew was still debating whether he should allow this happen or not, but he decided that it’s for the best. If he doesn’t allow her, it cou

    Charles couldn’t get rid of the whole shock immediately. These three seemed like unlikely allies. If someone had predicted that Vera was going to partner up with them in the long run, he wouldn’t have believed.He was lost for words, and the only thing he could do next was to applaud them.“I really don’t get it. How could abducting James be worth all these?” he questioned, finding it difficult to understand how they would think a stupid idea was worth how they waned to get back at him.“Shut the hell up, Charles! You have nothing reasonable to say. We have had what we want, and it feels so good to know you’ve experienced defeat. If you thought you could have a nice life without me in it, then I hope this incidence have taught you that you can never be as big as you want.” Vera said, looking like she could hit him with any sharp object if she was allowed to.Then Tyson pushed James towards Charles. As Charles wanted to bend down to pick James up, Tyson shot him in the leg.“Ahhh!” Cha

    The siren blew as they all parked their cars around Charles’ house. They had even called the fire trucks to put out the smoke and fire that had been caused by the explosion.Charles sat at the back of the ambulance as they ran a quick check up on him to be certain he was okay.“You are fine sir. You weren’t affected in any way.” One of the paramedics informed him.“Thanks.” Charles responded in a low tone.Just when he wanted to celebrate one of his biggest wins, this calamity befell him, and worst of all, the man who had abducted James had not gotten back to him, since then.“Mr. Lincoln, do you perhaps know of anyone who might have a grudge on you that could have done this?” One of the cops who walked up to him, questioned him, while holding a note in his hand.“I don’t have an idea. It’s more like I’ve gotten rid of the enemies who let themselves known that they are my enemies. Right now, I have no idea.” Charles spoke, sounding really broken.“Alright, we’ll ensure we get to the r

    The next day, Charles woke up to James’ call. He rubbed his eyes, and then managed to sit up as he was feeling very tired. Although, he was meant to wake early today, especially because he had a flight to catch, but his bones were too tired to help him act as sharp as he ought to. As he answered his call, his eyes opened up immediately due to James’ overjoyed tone. “Boss! Boss! We did it! We finally did it!” James voiced out happily.Charles adjusted himself on the bed, and made his feet to touch the ground, wondering what news James had this time that made him to sound this way.“What’s going on?” Charles asked, with his curiosity taking the best of him.“Boss. Mr. Van actually did something great, last night. He told me this morning that he sent an email to Mr. Jayla about our need for vibranium, then he mentioned your name. About an hour after he talked to me about it, I received a response through the company’s email, from Mr. Jayla, expressing his joy that we had actually reac

    Charles stepped on the throttle and zoomed off, trying to cut through and ensure no one was going to take up space on the road which he could take advantage of.“If I’m able to drive faster than this, I should get to the nearest hospital very soon.” He thought to himself and then sped up.Fortunately, there was no traffic congestion this time, and the hospital he planned to go to was just right around the next main road.There was just ten minutes left and apart from getting to the hospital, there would obviously be some little process one would have to go through before making payment. Soon, I got to the hospital, and then walked in immediately, heading to the reception.“Good day. Please I’ll like to make payment for any patient who is need of medical attention or anyone who hasn’t been able to make payment.” Charles said to the receptionist.“Alright, sir. We’ll go through the records now. Please kindly have your seat while I make my research.” “No. I need to make an urgent payme

    When it was evening, he packed up his bags and was ready to leave for his home when James walked in.“You’re about leaving.” He said, noticing that he had packed up.“Yes. By the way, Mr. Van will be the one to go with me to Paris, and I’ll like to leave you to the company to take care of other things.”“Oh, are you sure about this? You know, you might need someone who you’ve really known, to go with you to another country.” James expressed his concern.Charles understood that he’s more vulnerable in a different country, especially with someone he hasn’t worked with, long enough to know if he had good intentions for him or not.“I understand. But I also need someone with experience, someone I can trust, that can stay back and that’s you. You don’t have to worry too much. Just do fine, here.” Charles spoke.“Alright, boss. I understand. So, are you going to set your eyes on the physical idea which the production team will prepare first, before you leave, tomorrow?” James asked, out of c

    When Charles got to his office, he asked to be left alone as he needed to strategize and see how he could make things work.“System, show me how many points I have gathered altogether.” He inquired and waited patiently for the system to show him his points.YOUR POINTS ALL EQUAL TO 15. DO YOU WISH TO USE THEM? YES/NO.Charles tapped his chin lightly, thinking if he can get through with anything with those fifteen points.“Show me the skills I have as options.” He uttered, and focused his eyes on the screen before him.YOU HAVE THE VARIOUS SKILLS OPTIONS AND THE POINTS YOU CAN USE TO GAIN THEM AS WELL ARE AS FOLLOWS: A. FIGHTING SKILLS (15 POINTS) B. MIND READING SKILLS (20 POINTS) C. MARKETING SKILLS (25 POINTS) …Although, Charles was a bit worried with the number of points needed for the various skills and the points that would be needed for the last skill which the system would bring up. But more than that, he was more worried about if the last skill that would be brought up would

    “We’ll talk more on this, tomorrow. As for today, you know how sacred it is for me. I won’t be engaging in any work, no matter how pressing it is.” Charles said, standing on his ground.“I understand, boss. It’s noted.” James replied, acknowledging what was more important to Charles, at this moment.They both stayed at the cemetery until it was 6pm.“Alright, it’s time to leave.” Charles urged as he rose to his feet.James also rose to his feet and helped Charles pack up the few things he had set up and then placed it in the car.“Thanks for your help, James. You should go home to rest and then tomorrow, we’ll look into the problem we have. Thanks for your concern again.” Charles appreciated him and then got into his car.James smiled and then walked to his car as well, then got into it and stared the engine immediately Charles drove off.He was glad that Charles was okay and nothing bad had happened to him, but he also hoped that their current problem at work would have a solution.

    James tried to call him again, but his phone was still switched off. He rose to his feet, then rushed to his bedroom, preparing to drive out to where Charles was, but he stopped halfway when he got back to the living room.He already had a second thought and which was to be patient. He felt that the information could wait. After all, all he just needed was confirmation if they were to go on with the idea of using vibranium or not.In a situation like this, he was used to reaching out to Vera, but now, he couldn’t. Well, he was going to get used to it, soon. He decided to put a call through to Mr. Van and the reason he decided this was so Mr. Van could get a hang of this work quickly and know what to do in different situations.“Hello, Mr. Van.” He greeted.“Good afternoon, Mr. James.”“I hope you’re getting the hang of things at work?” James asked as he sat on the sofa.“Yes, I am.”“Alright then. I need you to make a research on people who have vibranium in possession.” James instruct

    The next day, Charles had had his bath, and was searching through his wardrobe for something simple to wear.Today was his mother's memorial and as usual, he doesn't do anything on that day. He decided to wear a dark suit as that's how it has always been.After dressing up, and ensuring he was leaving nothing behind, he walked out of his room, with his shoes making tapping sounds which echoed as he walked down the stairs leading to his living room."Good morning sir." Martha greeted politely."Good morning." He responded with his hands in his pocket."Here are the flowers you ordered. They came in an hour ago." Martha informed as she handed the bouquet of flowers to him.Charles removed his hand from his pocket and received the flowers, then sniffed the scent in."Smells nice." He spoke as he nodded his head in acknowledgement. "Alright then. Until when I get back home."Charles turned towards the door and then halted before he turned back to her."You should also take the day off." He
