After relaxing from the spa treatment and completing all the workload the executive team had pushed to him and his assistant, he decided to pay his parents a visit.He wanted to have a talk with his stepmom about Tyla and of course he was going to do it in front of his father.Goofy was waiting in the black Porsche to pick him up, jose had called him earlier in the evening to come pick their boss up because of how exhausted he was.He exchanged a light greeting with Goofy before resting in the car and he fell asleep.“We are here sir,” Goofy tapped him softly on his leg. “Hmmm.” Cephas stretched. “I feel so refreshed, Thanks for the ride, Goofy.” “You are welcome sir.” goofy replied happily then a bodyguard opened the door for Cephas to come out. Goofy was driving in circles earlier so that Cephas could get enough sleep before dealing with his parents.“Cephas, you didn’t say you were coming home today,” Ruth said excitedly when she saw him and she walked him up to him for a hug.He
The wedding day..Numerous guests flocked into the biggest chapel in the city, dignitaries that came on behalf of the bride’s family. His Father wasn’t much of a socialist so he didn’t invite anymore, and his stepmom didn’t consider the wedding as any huge thing so she didn’t invite more than ten guests.Cephas himself, didn’t call his acquaintances from uni, the wedding was not a big deal to him either but the Gojo's seemed to be very excited to be hosting the wedding.A little ring bearer walked down the aisle, spreading flowers and cuteness. He was also from the Gojo’s family because they didn’t have little ones yet in the Walter’s family.The groom, Cephas himself and his younger sister behind him as the best man but the female version.Sarah knows that she can get anything she wants with her brother, she wanted to see him off while he got married this time. She had told him that she would see it in the bride’s eyes.At first he had laughed her suggestion off but she showed up in
“What did you do to that girl?” His father demanded from him as soon as they entered his study.“I didn’t do anything to her father,” he retorted. “Where is your accusation coming from? Some girl just dumped me at the altar but you are blaming me for that? How does that have to do with me?”“You can fool anyone in the world, Cephas but not me. I know about every single move you take without moving an inch from my house.”“So? How does that explain that the young lady called off the wedding herself?”“Since you want proof, I will give them to you.” his father replied to him and dropped some photos on the table. Cephas picked them up and canceled the contents.Someone had taken pictures of him and Leah at the restaurant, “Shit,” he cursed beneath his breath then he quickly thought of an excuse to give his father.“All I see is a harmless couple and husband and wife to be, having lunch in a restaurant, did you see something else?” He showed the picture to his father. “We even looked cute
After Cephas dropped the call with his sister, he locked his black baby and went into the office building. It was a Saturday and of course Tyla was in the office just like he assumed. She was a very hardworking woman and boss that never pushed her duties to her subordinates. He opened her office and she looked at him. “Cephas,” She called surprisingly and she got up from seat then she walked up to him. “Are you okay?” She pulled him in for a hug. “I saw your face during the wedding when your supposed bride said she was in love with someone else.” “I am fine, Tyla,” He replied to her awkwardly and pulled away from the hug. He had not expected to receive a warm embrace from her, even as he stood some meters away from her, her strawberry scent was still strong like she was still in his arms. Once again, he thanked God and his stars for not letting him get trapped with someone he didn’t like. Now he was going to focus on growing his love with Tyla. “I just need a break from the wor
“Good afternoon, I am here to see the CEO,” Violet greeted the receptionist who seemed to be very busy and swamped with work.“Good afternoon, how may I help?” The receptionist replied without looking up. “I said I was here to see the CEO, did you not hear me earlier?” Violet demanded rudely not caring if people around were watching.“May I have your name ma’am? Do you have an appointment?” She asked, maintaining her professionalism. All the members of Walter Corporation staff had been trained to retain their professional form at all times with guests and customers.“I am Violet Marcus and I don’t have an appointment yet, can I make one?” She asked impatiently .”Please make it as soon as you can, It is really urgent.”The receptionist finally looked up from her computer. “I see you have been blacklisted from all our companies and our sub companies as well. If you are here to rectify that, I suppose our COO who is currently on leave is supposed to handle that, I’ll advise that you c
After the conclusion of the location discussion with Cephas, they reached a decision and shared urgent tasks between themselves. On Monday morning, Tyla decided to go and inspect the building shed had previously purchased while Cephas was going to reach out to the people that were going to verify they were going to supplier them high quality jewels.Due to the tiredness from working effortlessly and pulling several all-nighters, she could not ride her little truck, instead she took an uber.Once arriving at the venue, a few guys were pulling out the building which turned out to be a surprise, she didn't employ any to work on the building.She had a second thought that Cephas must have sent them to make some corrections on it so she walked up to the man that seemed to be the project manager.“Good afternoon sir,” she greeted politely when she was slightly confused if she should refer to Cephas as Walter or Green but she chose to stick to his first name “Mr Cephas must have sent you t
Cephas stormed into his parents house for the second time in the month, he remembered how he came to tell his father to ask his stepmom to get away from Tyla, now his brother was going after her.He wasn’t interested in why they were after her, he just wanted them to be far away from Tyla. He had discovered his Stepmoms true intentions.She had pretended to hate Tyla and harassed her when she was with him at the restaurant. He suspected that his stepbrother must have thought Tyla picked him and retailed because of that. He knew he couldn’t control himself if he tried to confront his stepbrother.While they were younger, all of them had gone on a mini vacation. Cephas joined the trio for Sarah’s sake because she was really excited about it.One time on the trip, Abraham bullied Sarah, he spilled a chocolate drink on her favorite yellow dress and knocked her hard on her head.Cephas got really angry then he got into a fist fight with Abraham. He injured Abraham so badly in Sarah’s def
Tyla had woken up by the time he got to the front of the ward, he knocked on the door before entering. “Come in.” Her tired voice said. He got in after receiving her permission, she pulled up her hospital gown as he came in. She was inspecting the bruises on her body. “Hello, Cephas.” He moved close to her, “Are you okay, Tyla? Does your body ache?” He asked concernedly. “It does ache but I will be fine.,” She said with a smile on her face, “Can you help tie my gown, it loosened when I was trying to check my bruises out.” “Sure, sure.” He went to her back and picked up the ropes to quickly tie the gown, coving her Milk like skin. Tyla felt tingles and a shiver traveled up her spine. She felt a sharp pain on her arm and flinched away from him. “Are you okay?” he asked quickly, his hands moving to her face to see if she was okay. “Yes, I am” she said “it was just my arm, it is fine now” He left her side after making sure she was okay and sat down on the chair near her bed. He
