Keith tried ignoring Camila since they came back from Mrs Genevieve's house.“You've been avoiding me, Keith,” she said, standing at akimbo.“I've not been avoiding you. I'm just too tired to say anything,” Keith said, walking past her.“I know you are angry at me but we need to talk,” Camila said, looking at Keith who chuckled bitterly.“Angry?” He asked as he laughed. “I'm not just angry Camila. I'm pissed,” he said, running his hands through his hair. “We agreed that we weren't going to tell anyone about the baby and you went and spilled it out to Sheila,” he said, disappointed in her which made her angry.“Oh please, do not give me that disappointing look. All this is your fault,” Camila said as Keith looked confused.“My fault?” He asked.“Yes, it's your fault. If you weren't paying so much attention to Sheila, I wouldn't have felt so insecure. You didn't have my back there and you act like you need Sheila to make things go as planned,” Camila said as Keith became speechless.“Yo
“Fancy seeing you here, Miss Hockings,” she turned to see Duncan. She sighed as she groaned inwardly. Duncan chuckled, seeing her facial expression. “What's a beautiful woman like yourself sitting here all alone?” He asked as sighed.“And that's my cue to leave,” she said, standing up while Duncan chuckled. “You annoying piss of shit,” she muttered, glaring at him and leaving."Good morning all, I’m Nicki Samson, reporting live. As you may have heard, I’ll be filling in for my colleague, who is currently recovering from an unfortunate incident. She was allegedly assaulted by an individual described as a 'fiery fan'. A concerning situation that we hope resolves swiftly, as our thoughts are with her during her recovery.“This morning, however, I want to shift focus back to the story that’s stirred much conversation across the city: the ambitious work of billionaire businessman Keith Thompson. Despite recent setbacks, Mr. Thompson continues to inspire countless people with his resilience
“Mr Vileman has taken you to court. The Court's hearing will be held next week,” Chris said as Camila scrowled.“Perfect time to launch the new project so that he would see that he has lost,” Keith said, nodding his head. “Anything else?” Keith asked.“Someone is here to see you,” Chris said as Keith sighed.“Tell him I'm unavailable for the moment and tell this person to come next time,” Keith said as Chris smiled sheepishly.“Well, he said it's urgent so I may have brought him in already,” Chris said as Keith glared at him. “Sorry,” he said, running out as a man came in.“Make it short. I don't have the whole time,” Keith said as the man smiled.“Don't worry about that. I do not plan on staying here any longer,” the man said as Keith and Camila narrowed their eyes at him.“You sure do have a lot of nerves,” Camila said as the man just smiled.“Can you please just state the reason you're here. In case you didn't know, we were on our way out,” Keith said as the man nodded.“I understa
“Then, I'll tell him to back off. If you don't need my help, then it's okay. I'm leaving,” she said, sipping the drink before standing up and leaving but paused and turned to them. “I'll urge you to think about it. You have till tomorrow,” she said as she left.“The nerves of that woman. I don't think I'll ever like her,” Camila said, looking at Keith who wasn't paying attention to her. “What are you thinking about?” She asked, touching him. Keith smiled at her.“Nothing. I was just wondering what you would be eating,” Keith said smiling. Camila knew he was lying but she dropped it, playing along with him.“I know right. I'll check the menu,” she said smiling, while picking the menu. Keith looked at her as he sighed softly. Everything went smoothly as nothing happened to anyone and before you know it, days turned to weeks as the Court's hearing drew near.Nicki Samson stands confidently in front of the courthouse, microphone in hand, with the buzz of the gathered crowd around her. The
Keith entered the courtroom with Camila beside him to see Mrs Genevieve already seated with Mr Kevin and Smart. He gave them a curt nod, going to his seat. Camila slides in, seated next to Mrs Genevieve.“I didn't know you were already here,” she said whispering to Mrs Genevieve who just shrugged.“Just felt I should be here early. Couldn't miss this opportunity to see Mr Vileman losing this case,” Mrs Genevieve said feeling disgusted as she glared at Victor Vileman from where he was seated.“Me too. I can't wait,” Camila said, throwing a smile Mr Kevin's way.“Court arises,” the clerk said as everyone stood up as the judge walked in. “The Court's preceding,” he said as she settled down, they all sat down.“Court is now in session. We will hear the case of Victor Vileman vs. Keith Thompson from Thompson incorporation. Please state your case, Plaintiff,” the judge said as the plaintiff stood up.“Thank you, Your Honor. My client, Victor Vileman entered into an investment agreement wit
“What if it doesn't get better? What if bad things continue to happen?” He asked “Then we just have to find our faith and hold it dearly. Everything is going to turn out good for all of us,” Camila said as Keith nodded. “Come on. Let's leave here. I'll cook up something for you when we get back home,” Camila said, holding Keith's hand as the car came. They entered inside as the driver drove off.Later in the day, Mrs Genevieve came to see Keith and Camila.“How is he?” Mrs Genevieve asked as Camila pouted coffee for her in her cup.“He's fine, just pretty shaken up by everything that's happening. I'm not sure he's going to take it if he loses this case,” Camila said, setting the jug down and sitting down.“Speaking of losing, Gracie was so pissed off by the stubbornness of Victor and his lawyer. She said we have a high chance of winning and that she'll make sure she crushes those fools tomorrow,” Mrs Genevieve said as Camila nodded.“That's good to hear,” Camila said as they were bot
“I would like to call Mr Jeffrey Williams to the stand, who is a satisfied investor in our properties,” Gracie said, calling another investor to the stand as Mr Jeffrey takes the stand.“Please state your name and your relationship to the case.“My name is Jeffery Williams. I invested in properties similar to those involved in this case and have seen significant returns.” Jeffrey said as the judge paid attention to him.“Can you explain the process you went through before investing?” Gracie asked as Jeffrey nodded.“Absolutely. I was given a detailed presentation about the potential risks and rewards. I signed an agreement acknowledging these risks before making my investment,” Jeffrey stated.“How has your experience been with the investments you made?” Gracie further asked“I’ve had a positive experience. My properties have appreciated, and I have received consistent rental income,” Jeffrey answered as Gracie nodded, looking at the judge and the plaintiff before turning her attention
“With that, I’ll leave it there. No questions for today, but you’ll be seeing results soon enough.” He nods respectfully, offering a calm but firm smile to the reporters before turning and walking away. The murmurs of questions follow him, but he strides confidently out of the room. Camila could not have been more proud of Keith. She smiled, following him as they entered the car and drove off.Sheila dressed up to go out when she saw Abraham seated in the sitting room.“Did you watch the news?” He asked her “Yes. He sure has a way of turning things around but I'm sure that you won't let it happen,” Sheila said as Abraham nodded.“Where are you going?” Abraham asked.“I'm going to enjoy myself. I need to take care of myself since you're doing the whole work and Thompson's bitch asked to meet me,” Sheila said, leaving. Abraham took out his phone, dialing a number.“Follow her. Make sure you keep a close eye on her,” he said, disconnecting the call.“Where is he?” Sheila asked, sipping
