Keith and Camila went home together in silence. Each thinking about their own problems. They couldn't eat as they played with their food. Keith couldn't take it anymore as he stood up.“Where are you going?” Camila asked.“To my room,” Keith answered, carrying his plates.“But, you aren't done with your food yet,” Camila said as Keith looked at her then at her plate.“You should worry about your own self. You aren't even eaten and you're worried about me,” he said as he shook his head, going to keep his plates. Camila sighed, placing her spoon on her plate. Her mind was in turmoil. She stood up, picking her plates when Keith had already gone upstairs.She met Keith, still lost in his thoughts.“You okay?” She asked, sitting next to him as he sighed, holding her hands.“You don't seem okay yourself,” he told her, looking at her.“You want to talk about it?” She asked him as he shrugged.“Do you want to talk about your problem?” He asked her back as she sighed.“Not now,” she replied.“
Camila watched the news with anger evident in her face. She switched off the television.“The nerve of that lady. What's her deal? Why is she doing this? I feel like going over there and giving her the beating of her life. How dare she slander my man like that?” She asked, glaring at the television when she got a call. “Mrs Genevieve, what's up? Yes, I'm at the office. I watched the news. She is really annoying. How about we team up and beat her. She won't even know what hit her,” Camila suggested, laughing. “So, what's Keith doing?” She asked, flipping through her file. “What! How can he do such a thing? Is Keith okay? Oh my God. I'm so sad now that I won't be able to make it over there. Yes. I'm so busy. I have a very important meeting to attend right about now,” she said as her secretary knocked on the door lightly. She signaled saying she would be out in a minute. “When I'm done, I'll rush over,” she said, disconnecting the call.Sheila watched the news fuming.“What's this woman'
It seems the news anchor is really doing a good job dragging Keith Thompson,” Adam said as Abraham just looked into space. Adam wondered what he was thinking.“What has Sheila been doing lately?” Abraham asked as Adam looked like he was thinking.“As far as I know sir, she hasn't been doing anything. She's usually at home or out shopping. Your guys are doing a great job just as you thought them to,” Adam said as Abraham hummed.“That's good. Tell them to keep a very close eye on her. I do not trust her one bit,” Abraham said, standing up and leaving the office.So, have you heard anything about Mr Vileman?” Camila asked as Keith looked at her. “What?” She asked nonchalantly.“You know why?” He said.“I don't know,” she whispered, scratching the back of her head.“Don't be like Mrs Genevieve. Using his name like that. I'm sure it's not pronounced the way you spell it out,” Keith said as Camila shrugged.“Well, you can't deny that his name just shows how he is,” Camila said as Keith sig
Mrs Hockings actually took her husband's word into consideration. She woke up so early in the morning, printing out fliers for her new business. Mr Hockings came downstairs, seeing her so busy counting cupcakes that were on the table.“You really mean this, don't you?” He asked as she nodded.“I need to get this right. I baked some cupcakes which I could use for samples. I just hope it goes well,” Mrs Hockings said as Sheila entered, carrying baskets.“Good morning. I bought groceries,” she said, entering the kitchen and placing it on the counter.“You shouldn't have. We are okay,” Mrs Hockings said as Sheila rolled her eyes.“Don't worry about it, mother. You have my word that none of these things were bought with Abraham's money. They are my money,” she said, turning to her father. “I'll be taking my leave now, dad,” she said when her mother held her hand.“What is it, Sheila? You’ve been avoiding me and not picking up my calls. Did I do anything wrong?” Mrs Hockings asked as Sheila
Camila was busy laughing while eating. It looks like Keith was telling her something and she was finding it funny.“Cover your mouth and chew properly,” Keith scolded her lightly as she brought out her tongue, showing it to him. “Childish,” he said with a scoff.“You love me like that,” she said boastfully.“Do I? Let me think for a second,” he said, pretending to think while sneaking a glance at Camila who just looked at him with a smile on her face. “Of course, I do and you should be lucky,” he said as she chuckled.“Lucky?” She asked as he nodded. “Dude, you should be the one lucky to have me. I've done a lot for you. I mean your life won't have been this better if I hadn't come into your life,” Camila said as Keith shook his head.“Whatever floats your boat,” he said with a smile as Camila saw someone coming towards them.“Guess who just arrived,” Camila said as Keith felt so less concerned.“Isn't it Sheila?” Keith asked, eating his food. Camila wondered how he knew and so she lo
Sheila was burning in rage. Max could feel it. She hit the seat, cursing profusely.“The nerves of that woman. I really hate her,” she said as she placed her fingers on her teeth, biting from it while being lost in her thoughts. “Turn around,” she ordered as Max did as he was told. When Max went back to the restaurant so that they could pick up Mrs Hockings, Sheila saw her mother following Camila and Keith. She scoffed angrily. “She couldn't even wait for me to come. What a woman,” she muttered to herself. “Drive home. I'm tired already,” she said as Max nodded, driving away.Camila dropped Mrs Hockings at home. Immediately she came down, Camila followed suit while Keith stayed in the car.“Thank you very much. I really appreciate it,” Mrs Hockings said as Camila shook her head.“You don't need to thank me. We're friends after all,” Camila said as Mrs Hockings smiled, squeezing her hand softly before going in. Camila sighed, joining Keith inside as she looked at him. “Thank you,” she
Keith arrived at the office, meeting Chris on the way to his office.“Mr Vileman took us to court sir,” Chris said as Keith was entering his office.“I saw that. Have you contacted our lawyer?” Keith asked as Chris shook his head.“Did that before you came, sir,” Chris said as Keith nodded. “What are you planning to do, sir?”“Good job. I'll try persuading to settle out of court and if he doesn't agree, I'll make him lose everything including the new business plans we have in control,” Keith said, picking up his phone and leaving the office while being on a call with someone.Sheila came downstairs for breakfast to see Abraham already seated and eating.“Good morning,” she greeted, sitting down to eat.“You looked angry yesterday. Did anything in particular happen?” He asked as Sheila scoffed softly, raising her head to him.“Don't mind me and carry on with your food. I'll get better by the day,” she said, eating her food, not paying attention to Abraham which pissed him a little.“Ar
Keith met Mrs Genevieve and Camila at Mrs Genevieve's house. He was really stressed out as he removed his suit jacket, slumping down on the chair with a sigh.“Stressed?” Mrs Genevieve asked as he nodded.“Here, have something cold. It would help,” she said, handing him a glass as he took it with one gulp.“How did it go?” Camila asked as Keith frowned.“I've never seen anyone as stubborn as that man. He's so stubborn that he isn't seeing the big picture in front of him,” Keith said, demonstrating how frustrated he is.“Did you tell him about the solution you're planning?” Mrs Genevieve asked as Keith nodded.“And he still didn't agree to drop the case?” Camila asked, quite surprised herself.“That's how surprised I was or should I say shocked.“He's stupid. That's for sure,” Mrs Genevieve said as they heard footsteps. “Urrh! She's here,” Mrs Genevieve said, displeased.“Who's here?” Camila asked as Sheila came into view.“You all better start talking,” she said, folding her hands whi
