“Arrgh.” Sarah yelled when she entered Zoro’s office. Her husband’s office was her safe space. He’s the only who could really understand her.“What’s wrong? What did Cephas say?” Zoro asked concernedly. It wasn’t a surprise that she was that way.He knew that was likely how she would behave when she told him that she was going to wait for Cephas in his office.She had plan to threaten him, but he knew that would make Cephas tighten up his lose ends.

“Sarah and Abraham are silent these days. What are they up to?” Cephas asked Anta. He had gone to visit the couple so they could work together from home.“They are trying to see what we can do within a month. The secretary I planted in Mrs Sarah’s office told me that while the one in Mr Abraham’s office told me he hasn’t been coming in to work.” Anta reported dutifully.“We need to shake them up a little. They are so relaxed besides we need to distract them so that they won’t sabotage our revival plans.” Cephas said.“What do you intend for us to do?” Jose asked.“Jose, I think you should bring in the financial crimes organization to come and do a search with a warrant at the financial department.” Cephas instructed.“They might arrest Mrs Steel-Walter in that process.” Jose said.“Yes, Abraham will be busy with that and her daughter will be looking for ways to not get caught or snitched on by her family members.” Cephas said while he flicked his fingers like he was calculating some st

“Do you think we should tell him?” Jose asked his fiancé over the phone. “Will he be able to take the news well?” He asked with great concern for his boss.He had gone to Walter’s corporation after turning off their lights and their cctv camera from his laptop. His programming skills were already great enough to do that, snooping around NEOTUBE surely paid off for him.He had traced the coordinates to a member of the Walters family’s officesShock can’t be the best word to express what he felt but he knew that he didn’t see it coming.Just before the security team clock in he managed to leave the building.“We have no choice but to tell him.

Cephas and his team were in the boardroom room, looking through the heap of paperwork. Sarah stormed into the boardroom. “What do you think you are doing?” Jose yelled immediately. “You are not supposed to be here.”“I’m here to see my brother.” She yelled back at him. “Will you let me come in?”“I’m sorry but no one is allowed to come in here. I can’t let you in.” Jose insisted.“You bloody peasant. You can’t stop me from coming inside.” She said,Cephas got up from where he was sitting and went to the door. “Seeing how you can’t maintain professionalism, how exactly do you intend on overthrowing Abraham as the CEO?”“Who says I want a measly position of a CEO. The company is going to be mine. You will not find whatever you think you are looking for.” She threatened.“I didn’t say I was looking for anything. Your husband should have told you that I came to check if you were good enough to be the CEO of Walter's corporation. Since you head this place.”“Now that you said I can’t find

“Why did you just let her apologize to me, sir? We could have gotten proper evidence to use against her during the board meeting. What if she asks to remove you as the Chairman during the board meeting.” Jose lamented as he sat in the passenger's seat.Cephas chose to drive when they were leaving the office. “I chose to join the audit team for a reason. I already picked out what we need to use in the next meeting. There is no need to be worked up.”He brought out a squeezed paper from his pocket and gave it to Jose. “Send this to Anta to analyze.”“What is this?” Jose asked as he was unable to read what was on the paper. “Encrypted papers, my sister’s speciality. She learned how to write them a long time ago. It might lead us to a clue.”“How do you know Anta could analyze it sir? I didn’t even know that she possessed that skill.”“It was in her CV. I literally remember everything about you guys. I didn’t just agree to let you guys walk with me. You possess the best skills.”“Thank

Anta sent Jose a text. “I am done. It is a passcode to her safe. I find it suspicious that she kept it amongst those files. She is a pro by the way, I think was the best student my professor was talking about back in college." Anta finally knew whose records she had broken back then. Jose had given his fiancee full details of what had happened. “Well, I will inform the big boss right away. Stay safe and don’t cook, we have enough food already.”“Okay, I won't. Before I forgot, Ms Williams contacted me again, she sent a list of things people are requesting for so we can link our stores to her online shops.”“I will take care of that and send the news back to you.”She sent him a picture. “That is the stats of the sales we have made so far from Ms Williams online shop.”“This is huge, CW investment will be getting a huge chunk of it too, I think we can now approve more companies to invest in.”“Be sure to inform the boss about it so that there won’t be issues in the future.” she said.

He had gone to CW investment to see how things are faring there.“To what do I owe this pleasure,” He said as he picked up.“Thank God that wrench handed the phone to you. How can you employ clueless people around you when you have little knowledge about business.” Violet scolded him.Cephas chuckled. “I see that you have seen the news, I am lacking in so many ways. What can a Magnate even do?” he said sarcastically.Violet did not pick his sarcasm up and she continued talking. “I should come around and give you a help hand when I can.” She offered sweetly.Cephas didn’t think he had hear
