Sasha stared deep into thin air, cracking her brain on what excuse to give Steve about her sudden movement away from Ace.

Undiluted pain brimmed through her eyes, she had planned on spending the night here at the apartment. Who knows when next such a great opportunity will come by again?

“Now what lie do I tell this crybaby?” She muttered to herself as she drank up the remaining content in her champagne glass. She picked up her handbag and readjusted her dress before stepping out to meet Steve and Seb.

“Wow… outside is even fancier in my own opinion.” She uttered loudly, her face laced with astonishment mixed with bitterness. “This meeting better be worth it!” She mumbled under her breath.

Steve’s brows furrowed when he saw her coming out of the apartment in her full outfit, he immediately sensed she was about to go away.

He stood up quickly to meet her, with confusion glistening in his eyes, “Baby, going somewhere?”

He asked, caressing her hair in love. The more he caressed her hai

    THE MANIFESTOIt was the morning of the long-awaited day in St Psalms Institute, it was an outdoor setting since the weather was bright and a bit cocosyStudents were already seated in their chairs chanting the school's love anthem, entertaining themselves before the real deal. The candidates for the election should be prepared to buy the hearts of the students through their well-prepared/detailed speeches. Through their convincing speech, it would be easier for the students to go back and ponder on the best candidate suitable for the presidential position which would take place in two days.It was still a busy morning, Some students were hyperactive, raising the placards of their preferred candidates. However, some of the students were in the organizational team, setting up the tables for the special guest of honor and also the podium where the candidates would be giving their well-prepared speeches.Davidson had lodged in a nearby hotel with his team last night, they needed to ma

    “This stupid girl!!!! She never told me this laundryman would go as far as renting a chopper! I would have made arrangements for that too.” Davidson sneered through gritted teeth.At that point the students were on their feet, waving and taking videos of the helicopter that was hovering at a visible distance around the school.“Could that be the second candidate, Sebastian?”“I think so because the MC had just announced his arrival.”“Do you have a spare placard of him? I’m decamping to his team asap! This is dope.”Students were astonished, heads were tilted upwards, and gossip was hovering in the air. Eventually, the helicopter zoomed away after a while, and in no time, peace and calmness were restored.After the fuss, Sebastian's face twitched with laughter when he imagined what would be going on in the bully's mind. However, Steve was already in tears from so much uncontrollable laughter.“That helicopter was indeed a paid actor, I’m sure Davidson would have pissed on himself,” St

    “One house great student of this prestigious institute!” Davidson’s voice rang off in pride“The moderator said I have just four minutes, however, during the social night by 7 pm, all the items I would be mentioning would be given out to the students through a simple raffle draw.”“To show my support and love for my fellow students, we will be giving out 15 students bikes, 150,000 dollars to three lucky students, and free lunch to the first 100 students that will assemble at the school's cafeteria tomorrow!!” Davidson uttered.At this point, the students were no longer seated but standing in their seats, everyone was shocked at Davidson’s kind gesture and willingness to serve the student community with his funds and personal property. That was a leadership character worthy of emulation.“Now to the main purpose of the day, I will ensure there is a student get-together and party at least twice a month. All work without play?”“Makes Jack a doll boy!!!!”(chorus answer.)“I will enforce

    The MC’s introduction wasn’t good enough for the school's Vice Chancellor, instead, he stood up from the high table to make the announcement formally. The students were fascinated, they wondered if it was the owner of the institute that had visited them. Why would the executive Vice Chancellor stand up from his seat to introduce a guest?Mr. Fletcher, the presiding school vice chancellor, took the mic from the MC calmly and respectfully. His gaze was sharp, his look was professional and sharp.Immediately he climbed the podium there was a command of total silence due to the amount of respect they gave him.“Great students of St Paalm Institute.” His voice returned husky, however, calm. “Y’all don’t understand who is in our midst and the benefits of his visit.” He paused, glaring at the crowd.“I can see some of you still seated, that is not very respectful .” He added, took a deep breath in, and continued.“With great pleasure in my heart, accompanied with so much respect, If your ha

    After Jones's first intro, Donald and Davidson’s eyes quickly met, and Davidson looked away immediately. He felt cold like he was going to have a seizure seeing that his instincts were right after all.“How? When? Where?” Davidson questioned, his heart rate increased, his palm sweaty, and his countenance highly discomforting.Donald gave him a sign from his seated point, urging him to calm down. But how could he? When he was slowly losing his mind. Fear, anxiety, PTSD, depression… everything!!! He felt them all. He was just seated but deep inside him was chaos more than a volcanic eruption. He moved his hands through his jacket to ease the fire burning inside his stomach, if he lost guard in the slighted form he would defecate in himself. So he swallowed painfully while watching his uncle address the students.“….My life had been a huge lesson, I have been cheated, humiliated, bashed, and trampled upon. I had even given up but I got a will to live again.” Mr Jones continued.“Depres

    While Donald went to bring Davidson’s car, he saw Stanley and asked him nicely to return the cars they had rented for the sake of the event. He also urged him to see if the giveaway went smoothly.“Where are you going?” Stanley asked with concern in his eyes. “Where is Davidson?” He continued.But Donald was in a haste so drove off without responding to any of Stanley’s questions.He quickly drove with speed and screeched at where Davidson was having a panic attack. Davidson looked bewildered and completely devastated. Shock was one thing that usually dealt with his body system right from a tender age.“Get in, man!” Donald said, his voice laced with urgency.Davidson raised his head to see Donald, he let out a disturbing sigh before opening the car door.“Thanks.” He muttered, his voice weak and slightly above a whisper.Donald zoomed off immediately at high speed, making students jump out of the way in fear. However, in the car, there was an awkward amount of silence, the only nois

    Solomon was a known member of the institute’s Parents Association and he contributed greatly whenever there was any need for it, hence the familiarity with the VC.Solomon stared with gritted teeth and impatience in his eyes as he watched the call divert into a voicemail. “Pick up the call!” He stated through his gritted teeth as he dialed the number again. After the third try his face brightened up miraculously. The anger and worry plastered on his face quickly morphed into what looked like fake laughter when he heard the voice of the Vice Chancellor from the other end of the line.“Hello, Mr. Solomon. It’s good to hear from you again.” The VC greeted with enthusiasm from the other end of the line.“Oh! My noble friend, the Vice Chancellor himself, I salute you.” Solomon replied cheerfully, his salutations fake and obvious.“To what do I owe this pleasant call?” The vice chancellor asked.“Nothing much, only to greet you, my noble friend. However, my son just got home now and he sa

    “Hello, Boss.” A husky and dangerous voice emanated sharply through the phone.“I have a job for you and I need results in 24 hours,” Solomon replied his tone calm and collected.“Go on, boss.” Spider concurred, even though Solomon could hear some ladies teasing him from the phone.“Can you move away from your distractions!?” Solomon retorted but Spider smiled, “Don’t worry boss, they aren’t any hindrance.” He replied.Spider had been Solomon's errand boy for years, he had been the one carrying out every dirty and shady business for Solomon. So he trusted him in carrying out that delicate job too.“I need you to find Jones. He had been missing for days now, his last seen was at the restaurant.” He lied, just to get a lead or information.“Isn’t Jones that old waiter in your restaurant, I hope he is okay, that old lad was always calm and welcoming whenever I was around,” Spider responded.“That isn’t your business, just find him and when you do, bring him to me at the warehouse.”“Hmm…

    Sebastian and Benjamin’s hearts fluttered with restlessness, their impatient boiling over the roof, especially Sebastian’s.They had been impatiently waiting for the camera to be planted by Rose which looked like it was taking forever. Sebastian sat in front of the monitor while Benjamin paraded his room also waiting for a positive response.“Why is she taking so much time? It's almost an hour since she left your room!” Sebastian complained bitterly and Benjamin walked toward him, still bowing slightly.“Maybe he is giving her a tough time,” Benjamin said, trying to speak in Favour of Rose.“I told you that man wasn’t sincere, now see. He lied about having food poisoning.” Sebastian complained while Benjamin remained mute. He could tell the young master was paranoid and he didn’t want to make it any difficult for him.While they were talking, the monitor suddenly buzzed and turned on. They exhaled deeply, moving closer to the screen which was still shaking. They guessed Rose was sti

    Benjamin rolled his eyes before he opened the door quickly and Rose came in quickly, after making sure no one saw her of course. He shot the door before glaring at her from head to toe. Anger and disgust brimmed from every corner of his countenance. Her behavior reminded him of his divorced wife, Shirley, who tried having an affair with the grandmaster. With the kindness of the grandmaster’s heart, he informed him about his wife's advances before she was thrown out of the villa after the divorce. Ben hated promiscuous women. However, Rose’s case was a bit understandable.“Are you ready?!” He asked in a stern voice and she nodded yes, although she still vibrated slightly from fear whenever she heard Benjamin’s voice.“Here is a camera. You can plant it in the flower vase facing the bed.” Benjamin said but her nose squinted with concern, she was scared to speak out.“Sir..” She began with a cracked voice. “I don’t think a camera will work.” she continued and Benjamin raised his brow

    Despite the determination that eluded her demeanor, however, she was frightened and confused too. She pondered about the kind of work Benjamin was referring to and it made her heart rate increase profusely.“We need you to get close to Dr Tim and try as much as possible to get information from him,” Sebastian said, seriousness laced in his tone.He was willing to try everything possible to gather information about Dr Tim. He could feel it in his guts that something wasn’t right about the doctor. He couldn’t just place it. And if at all they were guilty like he had speculated that meant their scheme had been properly grafted before they got into the villa. They only used their profession as a camouflage to achieve their aim.Every means he had tried to get a clue had proven abortive. The drugs he had stolen from Tim and sent to the private lab came out clean. Paying the best hacker to gain access to Tim’s phone was still no progress. Sebastian was restless, he wasn't just ready to b

    “What did you tell your lover? You told him the herbal doctor is the true don, right?!” Benjamin yelled, his tone stern and non-negotiable, causing fright in the heart of the lady.She forced her lips to remain close, joining them tightly. She was still shaking from the floor. Her eyes were tightly closed and her breathing filled with clogs.The grandmaster felt irritated, if not for the fact that they were trying to conceal the truth about Sebastian, they had no business carrying such a confrontation in his room. Rather, they would have easily disgraced her openly, outside the villa and in the presence of everyone. Not in a sacred place like the grandmaster’s chambers.“Take her away to the other part of my chambers!” He commanded deeply to Benjamin and he obeyed. He still needed to keep his health in check so it was wise they moved away from him. The noise and the wailing from the lady struck his brain hard which resulted in a headache. The lady knew exactly why she was fidgeting

    The grandmaster sensed what Sebastian was trying to do and the balance he was trying to create between himself and Dr. Tim. It was commendable. His grandson had grown with so much wisdom all thanks to whoever brought him up.An unwise man would feel it was just a mere competition between two health practitioners but only a wise man would understand the stunt Sebastian was trying to pull.“Like I said doctor, I am not ready for any kind of medication today. And I do not want y'all insisting. My word is final.” The grandmaster said with the exact tone he used to respond to Tim and a grin of mockery was planted on Tim's face immediately. Targeted at making Sebastian feel embarrassed.“He felt his stupid herbal drugs were an exception. Stupid boy.” He mumbled under his breath. His gaze defeating as he stared at Sebastian who had taken a step back already. Sebastian, Benjamin, and the grandmaster shared a glance. Their minds were intertwined and they played the game with so much poise a

    Sebastian was on his feet, eagerly waiting for Benjamin’s presence. Restlessness was evident in his demeanor as he walked up and down his room, his ears active waiting for any knock.His heart skipped a bit Immediately he heard footsteps approaching his room, he quickly rushed to the door and peeped through the peephole where he saw Benjamin who was about to knock on his door. He quickly Opened the door and Benjamin walked in and shot the door behind him.“What is the development, young master? I was startled immediately after I got your message.” Benjamin said, standing firm with just hands behind his back waiting for the next instruction.“Take a look.” Sebastian gave him his phone for a while and his eyes widened with each second as he went through the message sent by Karan Jose.“Really? They do have private meetings in this villa?” Benjamin asked with furrowed brows. His tone was laced with shock.“I told you I felt something was off with this guy. How do we get to hear their co

    Sebastian stared at his grandmaster, worry laced in his countenance. He wondered what his grandfather meant by the enemy hanging around for ages. Why hasn’t permanent action been taken to ensure they met their Waterloo? Sebastian pondered to himself."My grandson, the enemy knows that our dynasty is equivalent to an unending treasure, their eyes would always be fixed on it.” He said but Sebastian still didn’t assimilate the message.“Grandfather, what do we do to wipe them out, I mean completely?” Sebastian asked, determination etched on his face. A weak smile curved upon the face of the grandmaster. “Wipe them off? As long as you are a great man, enemies will always lurk around you, son. It’s left for you to protect your empire or let them steal all you had labored for.” The grandmaster continued.Sebastian's annoyance became palpable. Although the grandfather was right, but he didn’t just see any reason why anyone would be so greedy to covet properties that he didn’t labor for.

    This wasn’t just any coincidence but of course a well-planned conspiracy. After everyone in the Villa suffered a major food poisoning. The only opportunity they could question was the chef. The orchestrator had gone ahead to take the life of the pawn he used. How cruel?! A sudden surge of energy enveloped Benjamin. His hands molded into a fist while Sebastian clenched his teeth trying hard to still be in character so he didn’t blow his cover.Benjamin’s voice thundered, through the Villa's hallways and corridors. “Everyone!!! Fall out now!!’ His face was etched with anger. A few days the grandmaster fell ill, he couldn’t afford the Villa to fall on his watch. He had been too lenient and it might cost him his life too.While Sebastian and the rest walked behind him, Benjamin summoned all the workers in the main Villa and also security personnel from the main building. The atmosphere was very tense, the air thick with anxiety and curiosity. They all stepped out one after the other

    Benjamin, despite being a bit weak quickened his pace as he reached out for his walking talking in the drawer. His heart was slamming in his chest because of the crazy thing happening that midnight. He needed to call the head of security to be on guard as he headed toward the alarm panel.“Hold on a minute, Benjamin!” Sebastian’s voice thundered, stopping Benjamin. His tone was laced with urgency while Ben halted immediately matching back to where Sebastian was.Sebastian squinted his gaze slightly as his mind reeled. “Before you sound the alarm, you must first change the lock code on the grandmaster's room. We can’t risk anyone snooping in there now.” Sebastian’s narrowed gaze was fixed on the monitor refusing to give Benjamin a single glance.“That’s a wise idea, young master.” Benjamin concurred with Sebastian's opinion.“Be fast and quiet about it, we must not wake him up,” Sebastian instructed.Benjamin nodded in coherence and walked off towards the grandmaster's room that was
