It was just a year before he traveled out of the country to further his education. But he didn't actually leave the country because of his education, he left so that his father would have enough time to make amends for all the mistakes he had made, especially for the death of Barbie. Barbie was a student of central college high school. She was known for her beauty and her funny nature. She had a close friend named Cloven and they remained the closest of friends but it didn't go any further. And Barbie saw their relationship that way, nothing more and nothing less Unknown to her, Cloven wanted something else from her, he wanted her heart and her love. And unfortunately, he wasn't able to tell her this hidden truth, he couldn't summon enough courage until.....Richard, A new boy from the richest family In the city, the Armstrong Family was enrolled to take his final year exams in the school. And by fortune, the duo of Richard and Barbie met and they fell in love instantly. This ange
The twelve men, rode on their motor cycle directed by the device tracker. They advanced towards the thick woods that lead to Lawrence Aunty's house. Then, they had a stop. The leader of this gang, a man thick not in flesh but bones checked the tracker for further direction as it beeps louder. Then, he gave a sign to the rest of the group to advance south and they did. Meanwhile, Lawrence slept in the room while Ken sat on the edge of the bed awake. Ken could not sleep, Lawrence kept disturbing him with his hateful snores. Angrily, Ken take a big bunch of cardboard papers and shifted it into his opened mouth. Angrily, Lawrence spat them out. "What was that for," he yelled. "Stop snoring like a madman," Ken yelled back. "Well, you should know that I am really tired that's why I am snoring. The fact that you aren't the one making the noise today serves you right," Lawrence replied. As they continued to argue, the square chip Lawrence kept in the wardrobe began to beep loudly. The
"What's it this time," Lawrence inquired, faking a long yarn. "I don't have time to explain, all I can tell you is that we have to leave this place now before it's too late," Ken replied. "But what about this house my aunt kept in my care? I can't leave now that my aunt isn't around." "What do you mean? Where did your grandma go to?" Ken inquired. "I told you that she left for some medical care at her specialist hospital," Lawrence replied. "That would be great for her. When we are safe, you will call her nanny and inform her that her house is no longer safe," Ken said. "Then who will take care of this place? That was my question in the first place remember?" "Are we going to be talking about this place when you are dead," Ken fired. "But what exactly is happening," Lawrence inquired getting frightened. Immediately after he said this, the duo heard a gunshot in the forest. A surge of Current ran through Lawrence's spine and he shuttered absently. He could already feel his he
Lawrence ran as far as his legs could carry him until his foot ached so bad that he clipped his teeth to the roof of his mouth to control the rising pain. He didn't want to make Ken feel he was weak and also, the device in his pocket was beeping. So, he was trying to do all he could to distract Ken from noticing the strange sound. As they ran, he stared at Ken and wondered how he could keep up with such a pace without getting tired. Streams of sweat ran down the soft skin of his face and he could feel his leg quaking hard. Then he stopped, he just had to. Lawrence placed his hands on his knees, trying hard to catch his breath. His leg shivered so hard that he felt he would never be able to have control over them again. Seeing that Lawrence could no longer keep up his pace, Ken stopped and looked behind, also trying to catch his breath. "What's it again," he said turning around towards Lawrence. "I can no longer keep up with you," Lawrence gasped. "What's that supposed to mean? D
Lawrence and Ken's plan worked perfectly. The bulldogs followed the signal provided by the device tracker until they got to a point where the tracking device read that they had gotten to their destination. "We would stop here," they must be around somewhere." While Jack sat on his motorcycle the rest of the team members began to search the place diligently but there was no trace of Lawrence and Ken. This happened for so long that Jack was frustrated to join them in the search. He came down swiftly from his motorcycle and began to search for any possible place where they might have hidden. Then underneath him, he began to hear a loud beeping sound that seemed to grow louder as he got closer. He looked downwards and found the voice collection device right under him. With his long nail that looked like claws, he picked the device up from the floor and stared at it. Then he realized that it was the device that was supposed to guide them to their target. "Shit," he exclaimed. "The
Richard sat in his room sleeping wildly while his phone rang at the other end of the bed. After some search, he had been able to find the note where Lady Tashia wrote her expenses for the wedding ceremony. From what he read, she already sided over fifty billion dollars from all the others she had already placed oversee. The frequent buzzing of the cell phone woke Richard up from his peaceful sleep. Angrily, he got the phone from the corner of the bed where he kept it. He glanced briefly at the name of the caller who would be calling a human being at that time of the night. But when he discovered that it was Ken and he already missed twenty of his calls, his heart almost stop beating on the spot. "What might have happened to Lawrence and Ken that they had to call me at that time of the night?" he thought. He placed a call to him, but all his lines were switched off and Lawrence wasn't picking up his. At this point, sleep had vanished from Richard's eyes. Minutes later, a message ar
Richard was overtaken by dread as the men in the motorcycles continued to advance toward him. He didn't know what to do and there was no point running. He was in a very open part of the city and his enemy was already on him. He closed his eyes expecting the worst. Then, he heard some gun shots and counter shots. But also noticed that he wasn't dead. Richard opened his eyes slowly and noticed that all the men were on the floor dead. He wondered what miracle just happened. Then, he saw two people running toward him. He didn't noticed when tears started falling from his eyes. They were all safe at last. "Master," Ken cried running towards him. Richard went over to Ken and hugged him. A few minutes later, he pulled away from him and turned to Lawrence. "Thank you," he said solemnly. "You are welcome," Lawrence replied." So what next now," Ken inquired. "It's time to get Williams and all his accomplices." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~The next morning, Williams proceeded to the company
Tears trekked down from Lady Tashia's eyes as she sat in the room, awaiting someone to call her to the meeting hall. She was confused and didn't know what exactly to do. "What was she going to say to them?" she thought. She had received reports that the financial crime agency would freeze their accounts when they discovered the slightest evidence that they had a link with Williams Armstrong. She shivered absently as a wide range of possibilities crossed her mind. She was going through a lot right now. The door parted open making her heart skip a beat. It was her daughter, Mrs. Luci. "Mum, everyone is already seated," she revealed with a trace of solemness in her voice. Lady Tashia drew a deep breath as she rose from her seat. At every step she took, her heart raced ten times faster. Then, she got to the meetings hall where everyone were seated and she swallowed a large lump. This was going to be more difficult than she thought. She took her seat and stared at everybody presen
Lawrence stood there as more large lumps went down his spine like large stones thrown down into a rusty tunnel and cold shivers ran down his spine. He stared into the man before him, staring at him with an evil smile hovering on his face and he felt like tearing that smile away from his dark face. "Just walked into your trap, did you?" Divo said to Lawrence. "I knew that this was the perfect bait to get you," he added to what he had earlier said. "I knew that something was you walked passed us the other day," Lawrence whispered out loud still shaking with great fear and trembling like a little child about to be locked away in a dark scary room. "But how were you able to find out that I had caught you?" Lawrence thought aloud. At this, Divo stepped towards him while he gradually moved backward, and at a point, he stop and shot a glare at Lawrence. "Well let us say I just got to know that you were spying on me from the way you stared at me that day when I walked by that day. I was
Richard shivered hard with fear and cold shivers ran down his spine as the first set of whips created bold lines on his body. The whips felt like a surge of electric current all around him and he shivered hard at their effect. He wanted to scream out due to the pian as little drop of tears escaped from his eyes but he was able to restrain himself. "Don't cry Richard, you have to be strong," he said to himself. "You think you are strong right, we will see how long you will be able to hold on to this," Gerald said with a hateful glare hanging on his face. "Whip," another whip landed on Richard's head making him groan in pain. "Hmmm," Richard groaned in pain."Such a harden fool," Mrs. Luci gasped angrily. "Why don't you just do what you are asked to and cut shot your pain?" Rachael gasped irritated by his self-acclaimed endurance. "I can no longer take this," Richard said to himself. Richard lifted his head and his eyes met with Victoria's. She didn't even show the slightest
"It is a great suggestion but we cannot deny the fact that I am married to someone," Victoria returned almost immediately. Mrs. Luci turned towards Victoria the very instant she heard what her daughter just threw out of her mouth and she shot a glare at her. "Do you even enjoy living with that slut?" Mrs. Luci inquired trying hard to control a total outburst since Victoria was the center of attraction there. Victoria sighed inwardly, she might sometimes act like she hated Richard passionately but it was still worth it seeing him around. The fact was just that most of the time, her disgust for him and hatred always overshadowed her soft heart toward him. "Did you even hear what I just said?" Mrs. Luci inquired snapping her off her thoughts. "It's not that mum. You don't seem to get the point that I am trying to make here. The problem is not with me, it's with Richard," Victoria replied quickly. "How? Does he have a say in a matter like this?" Mrs. Luci inquired. "He doesn't b
On that fateful Saturday morning, the morning that was going to decide Richard's and Victoria's finally state as it concerned their martial life, Victoria sat on the sofa in the living room, chatting with a friend on her phone and gradally sipping freshly squeezed orange juice. Meanwhile, Richard went about the daily business in the house. His hands, his feet and every part of his body ached bad but he just couldn't stop. Then, the doorbell rang twice and Victoria Rose from the sofa to scream Richard's name. "Richard..." She yelled at the top of her voice. Immediately Richard heard her name, she came running up to her like a little child to his wicked step aunty. When he got to her, his racing face was covered with sweat and he could hardly breathe. "You called me," he said in between trying hard to catch his breath. "I know I called you dummy," Victoria thundered. "Didn't you hear that someone rang the doorbell?" She growled at him. "Oh! I was busy inside," Richard noted and
Kindsley pulled his eyes away from the gun on the table laying the far end and returned his gaze to Lawrence. He might have informed somebody that he was going to find out about this ID. He knew that Lawrence was never the perfect person for an investigation team, so he might be working alongside with somebody who might smell something fishy immediatelys he gets missing."There is nothing wrong with card," Kinsley said quickly and returned the card back to Lawrence. "Are you sure?" Lawrence inquired with his eyes narrowed. He could not believe that the card was geniue, it was just too good to be true. "I think you did inspect it enough," Lawrence added. "Nah, I did all that inspection. The card is very much genuine," Kinsley revealed. "But..." Lawrence tried to oppose but Kinsley stopped him immediately. "I know why you are suspicious. It's the unque background of the card which is owned by a very high standing company," Kingsley revealed. "But I must say that you had a very
Lawrence stared at them with his heart divided against itself. His was left in such a dilemma that he shivered hard and his hearte ran cold. "What should I do now, Should I tell them or not?" multiple thoughts sprang up from his head. He drew a deep breath and decided not to inform them about it . He was going to get enough proof to make them believe that the ID card was perfectly forged. Lawrence slipped the ID card into his pockets as silently as he could and continued to stare at them as if nothing had happened at all. "I think we will have to go now and continue with our investigations," Ken announced. "Thanks for your massive help and cooperation," he appreciated warmly."You are welcome, anything for my boss's friends," she replied with a warm smile hanging on her face. Ken and Lawrence turned to leave immediately while Lawrence's heart continued to pound against his chest. "How am I going to prove my point to this dummy," he thought. He continued to think and finally
Tina continued to stare at him, her heart torn apart against itself. But she certainly could not go against the instructions of her boss, she would have to seek his consent first. "I will have to arrange a meeting with you and the manager, if he decides otherwise, I will have no say, but if accepts your proposal, I will send the proposed date to you," Evelyn explained. "We are very sorry for the inconveniences this might cause you," Evelyn regretted all she just said. Divo grinned at her with his anger stepping up gradually to his neck. He could not believe that this stupid company wanted him to return there. "Who does this fool thinks he is? Whoever this proud slut is, he is certainly worth eliminating and I will do it with great pleasure in my heart," he thought angrily. "What do you mean by all this you are saying," he thundered at Evelyn. "It's our company's policy, you can't see the manager until he requests to see you," Evelyn tried to calm him down but he refused to be
Meanwhile, at the Armstrong headquarters, something else was happening. Divo walked towards the large gate of the headquarters to continue with his assassination mission. A smile hovered on his face as he thought about the cruel death he was going to give to Richmond. "That's why I am the beast of the underworld," he laughed loudly. When he eventually got to the large gate, the security officer posted there stopped him almost immediately. immediately. "Hey," the security officer stopped him as he attempted to walk by without check. Divo turned around slowly and shot a grin at the security officer. "Hey," he returned. "What's is your mission here?" he inquired. "My mission? If you care to know, it is to get your boss and rip his head off frot his neck with my bare hands. After which I would take his rottening scule to my employers," Divo thought with a deadly smile on his face. "I asked you a question Mr," the security officer reminded, snapping him off his evil thoughts. "I
Meanwhile, Mrs. Luci's phone beeped silently at the side of her bed. Immediately she saw the name of the caller, her heart skipped a beat. It was the agent in charge of their goods ordered from outside the country. She just couldn't wait to hear that the goods had landed safely. "Good day mam," the agent greeted. "Good day to you too," Lady Tashia replied. "So how did it go?" She inquired. "Hmmm," the agent lingered a little before answering her question. Mrs. Luci's left hand shook violently as he waited for a response from the goods agent... "Nothing can go wrong," she said to herself as she continued to shiver. "T..the go..ods were seized by the custom service ma," the agent finally let out. "What!!!" Mrs. Victoria exclaimed. She rose forcefully out of her bed almost immediately. Her raging feets hit the hard surface as she moved up and down the room in a distressed manner. "What do you mean by that? For a job I paid you?" She fired. "Mam I tried my best, I swear," h
