Amid all these trials and tribulations, George was still moved with the spirit of determination.Over the months, he has grown not to fear anyone. He has learned to be self-reliant and to trust the capability of his own decisions. He finally got the understanding that risk and suffering bring beauty to results and without risk, there can't be a good outcome.Over the weeks, everyone has been waiting for him to inform them of the date of his marriage with Miss Olive of which he was silent on the purpose. He needed many things in his life to finally come to a resolution and that is why he would make further decisions that would eventually shape his future and that of Miss Olive.On that faithful Tuesday, many of his compatriots woke up in the morning, to see his invitation card all around every social media. For some special reasons, he needed to advertise his forthcoming wedding. 98% of all those that saw his invitation card, were happy for him.Infact, some single ladies began to wish
Three days later after the successful hosting of George's relationship program, the news of Michael appeared once again in the headline.Michael has been hiding for more than three weeks now since he got the information about his fiance's arrest and since he knew that they would definitely come for him.He went into the dark and while he was in the dark, he had been making several connections with his blood relations. Some of whom were still in the country and some of whom were out of the country.His major target at this time was to escape out of the country to another country that would protect him against his homeland security.All hopes were not lost for him but all hopes seemed to be lost for the security personnel that had been looking for him. In the case of Michael, he has been the breadwinner of his family since he got a contract with the Hopkins group of companies. He changed the lives of his family and all his relatives through the influences he got by working with the most
Chapter One Hundred And Forty-Three.In the midst of all this, good fortunes seem to visit George wherever he goes. The ugly conditions of things around him were still unable to prevent good things from happening to him.Three days after the reports of Michael escaping to Russia were made, George got a huge recognition from the government of his country, who has dimmed it fit to bestow honor upon him. It was a national day in the country, whereby the government of the country uses such a day to recognize and thank citizens who have shown an outstanding attitude and work in the country.That day was declared to be a public holiday, and many people were seen attending the national ceremony in the country's capital territory. Few people who were supposed to be honored on that day were forced by the government to be in attendance.The government refused to inform them that they would be recognized and decorated on that day because she wanted it to be like a surprise for them. It wasn't in
Chapter One Hundred And Forty-Four.“It is my pleasure to thank the great political kings of this country, for considering this great honor on me. I am one of the least among everyone in this country, but you've made it a privilege for me, to have this national award.However, I can't say less and I can't say much, because this honor of recognition, is never of my making.The humanitarian services you think I'm carrying out, are not actually a big deal. It is also not a good thing to do. Under common sense, it is what we regard as the ‘right thing’ to do.I have tried every possible best to make sure that I shield my services out of public attention but it wasn't really possible.On behalf of my humble self and my family, I say a big 'Thank You’, for this recognition”.The crowd stood up and clapped their hands, immediately he was done with his words. George at this point, was the most popular celebrity in his country because his new national recognition as an ambassador of peace fin
Chapter One Hundred And Forty-Five.Days later, both George and his three uncles appeared once again in the law court. The case between them was still ongoing since no definite outcome had been resolved but meanwhile, his three uncles would remain in the police custody until the court gave its final verdict.This was because his uncles were not only charged for their misconduct against George but also, against the country's security, when they sponsored thousands of persons to protest.Such acts were possible to destroy the peace of the country. This is why the government was involved in such a case. Thus, their hearing in the law court continued.“Standing on existing protocols, we would proceed with this case as soon as possible. The three Hopkins sons have been charged with fraudulent practice against their nephew George, and the government.To the opposing counterparts, what do you have to say concerning this?”The judge asked George's lawyer, who had been patiently waiting to def
The same day that their case was going on in the law court, the same day Sophia would speak with her compatriots. She was no longer comfortable being in the prison and if not the way things are currently, she was supposed to be released out of where she was being held.Everything was no longer working as they had previously planned. She wanted to know what was going on and so, she requested to speak with Georgia, her best friend.She placed this request, through the prison officials, who acknowledged it.Their countries' laws permit for prisoners to speak with their loved ones even though they were in confinement.All they needed to do was to place the order, and the said person they would like to talk with, will be presented to them through the prison officials; who would arrange a meeting for them.Georgia finally came to the prison, and was seen sitting on a chair discussing privately with Sophia.“You've really changed a lot. This prison where you are, has taken away your joy an
Sophia's desperation to leave the prison, was about to be answered, but who knows what the outcome might be? The thoughts of her leaving or escaping through any available means were filled in her heart, as she finds it difficult to divert her attention from such.The universe finally smiled at her, when she woke up the next day, to hear the kind of news she had been waiting for.A prison guard walked up to her and said.“I have a message for you madam”.She was filled with suspenseful thinking, and not knowing what to do or say. She thought another problem had been discovered again by the security agencies, not knowing that her secret prayers were about to be answered.With the kind of thoughts running through her mind, she looked at the prison official, who was dressed in his appropriate brown uniform, and holding a rifle.“Who are you and what do you want from me?”She asked.“You don't need to know me? All you need to know is what I have to inform you” The man responded.His face wa
Sophia was convinced beyond every reasonable doubt that Armstrong would get her out of prison. Of course, he would.She observed the face of the prison guard who recently came to check on her. It was as if, he had been sleeping. His eyes were pure red and in fact, he didn't seem to be like one who was in his right sense.“What must have happened to him? Why does he seem to act strangely?”All these, she asked herself.While all this was happening, Kelvin was also attended to by another man from the same group that was sent by Armstrong. He has been informed of the proposed planned attack and anticipated such.There was no assurance of hope and peace in the end; even though they would have to remain in Russia all through their lives.Meanwhile, the general election in the country will be in two days. Everyone was patiently anticipating for it to come. The political weather was currently cold and gentle because no one knew who would come out victoriously.The two major political opponen
