“Look at you being antsy about my phone. Do you have a problem? Were you the one who bought it for me? With the way you're behaving right now, I would start being suspicious of you,” Sheila said, looking away as Abraham glared at her.“Would you answer the damn question?” He asked as she grunt, then looked at the phone “Well, it's cheap, I know that already. There's no need to start rubbing it on my face,” Sheila said, getting on his nerves.“That's not the question I asked you,” Abraham said as she groaned.“Must you know everything?” She asked but when she saw the glare on his face, she sighed. “Well, a bitch smashed my phone on the floor. She thinks she has won but don't worry, I'll get back at her. I was just in one of my weak moments and she just managed to get away with it temporarily but she should just wait for me, I'll get back at her,” Sheila explained as Abraham just looked at her.“And how did you get this phone? I can't remember you leaving this house. I would have known
Keith was working on some papers when Chris entered inside.“Good morning sir. How was your night?” He asked as Keith looked at him with a glare.“How do you think my night would be?” Keith asked him back as he chuckled nervously.“I didn't know you keep things in mind,” Chris muttered, scratching the back of his head.“Did you say something?” Keith asked with a glare.“No sir. I didn't say anything,” Chris said, smiling sheepishly as Keith went back to his work.“What do you want?” Keith asked.“The bidding process is still ongoing. I must say, the competition is really a progress,” Chris said, showing Keith the sheets.“That's great. You'll be in charge of the project,” Keith ordered as Chris looked at him like he didn't hear what he just said. “Is there a problem?” He asked as Chris shook his head.“I didn't really get you but since I'm the only one in this room with you, could you please repeat what you just said sir?” Chris asked politely as Keith sighed, going back to paper sign
“I'm in the mood to prepare something today. Would you want anything?” Mr Hockings asked, hoping to get a response from his wife. “Sheila said she's sent a maid to bring the food items and that they are on their way here,” he said but still no response. He looked at her and saw her sitting down with her hands on her jaw. She was so lost in thought. He wondered what had her so invested in. He called her and she still didn't listen and so, he tapped her. She shook, placing her hand on her chest when she saw that it was him.“Oh God, you scared me. Why did you touch me like that? I would have answered if you had called my name,” she said as he rolled his eyes.“Of course you would have. I've been calling your name but you didn't answer. I was even telling you that Sheila has sent the monthly food items and it's on the way and I'm pretty sure you also didn't hear me when I told you that I was in the mood to prepare something but you've ruined the mood and hence, I won't do it again,” Mr H
“So, what's the gist?” Sheila asked.“I was planning on opening my own bakery and so I was discussing it with your father. I wanted his support so that I can start,” Mrs Hockings informed her mother as Sheila was happy.“I'm really happy for you mother. I totally support you. If you need money to start this great business of yours, I can surely support you,” Sheila said happily as her both parents looked at each other then at her. She didn't miss that. “What's the problem? Did I say anything wrong?” She asked.“Well, you didn't say anything wrong. It's just that the main reason I'm starting this business is because I don't want you giving us anything that has to do with Abraham Corner. We want to be able to earn ours without being insulted by him,” Mrs Hockings said as Sheila sighed, looking at her parents.“I guess you're right. So, how are you planning to get the money to start this business of yours?” Sheila asked as Mrs Hockings smiled nervously. Mr Hockings and his daughter looke
“I wasn't trying to annoy you neither was I trying to seem less concerned about the fact that you're pregnant. I was just taking it all in. You just sprang that up on me and I didn't know how to react. Why would you even think that?” Keith asked softly.“Because we lost our first child,” Camila said sniffing. “And Abraham is still out there and I… I don't know what to do. I'm so confused,” Camila said as Keith hugged her. He rubbed her back patting her before putting her at arm's length.“Hey, please look at me,” he said but she wasn't looking. “Look at me Camila,” he said as she raised up her head to look at him. “I'm not bothered about us losing our first child. I'm worried but I won’t allow it to affect this one and you shouldn't either,” Keith said, making sure she was looking at him. “We'll have this baby and we're going to give it all that love it deserves. And don't bother about Abraham. We'll deal with him. You have me, Mrs Genevieve and so many other people who love you and I
Sheila went home slightly drunk to Abraham waiting patiently for her.“Hey you! What are you doing here? I hope you weren't waiting for me because I don't need it. I can take care of myself,” she said as Abraham glared at her.“You're drunk,” he said as she scoffed.“I'm not drunk. I'm perfectly sober,” she said, trying to go up the stairs as Abraham nodded.“Since you're perfectly sober, how about you explain to me why you were laughing with Keith Thompson,” Abraham asked, folding his hands.“I don't know what you saw but I won’t tolerate you spying on me. If you want to ask anything, you come to me directly,” Sheila said as Abraham gave an evil smirk.“You don't tell me what to do. I won't tolerate it,” Abraham said, standing properly as Sheila gulped but she never showed how scared she was.“Whatever you saw was just a woman grieving. If your spy is competent, he or she would have seen that I was alone till he came along. I was only grieving,” she said as he scoffed.“What bullshit
“What a business minded man. He really knows his dough,” Camila said as Keith groaned.“Are we here to sing his praises,” he snapped as everyone kept mute. He sighed, going back to reading the paper.“Looks like someone is jealous,” Mrs Genevieve muttered but Keith heard her loud and clear. He turned, giving her a piercing glare as she cleared her throat. “Where were we again?” She asked, looking into the document which was handed to her. Smart just chuckled. His mother can be a lot of things. “He sold sponsorship rights to businesses that want to brand certain areas of the park or events hosted,” she read out.“That's huge,” Smart said as Keith nodded.“He developed recreational facilities like investing in amenities such as sports courts, playgrounds, fitness areas that can be used for classes and events, potentially generating additional income through fees,” Camila informed them. “He also Incorporated eco-friendly practices and educational programs that attract school groups and f
“Do you need anything, Chris? We've seen the news, now you can go,” she told him.“But that isn't all ma'am. The news anchor is still saying something,” he told them.“What the heck does she want to say again?” Camila snapped, getting angry.“How about we sue these news anchors? They always bite more than they can chew,” Mrs Genevieve stated, going to sit down.“Good evening, everyone. In today’s business news, we’re turning our attention to a prominent billionaire businessman, Keith Thompson, who has launched an ambitious new housing project. This venture aims to attract substantial investment from both private and institutional investors, promising a range of luxurious properties designed to meet the growing demand for high-end housing. However, as we’ve seen in the past, large-scale real estate projects can sometimes face unexpected challenges. Investors and homeowners alike will be watching closely to see how this project unfolds. Let’s hope this isn't another failed attempt and t
