“Undercover? Isn’t that risky?” Jose asked in surprise. His boss was full of surprises but never did he think that he would hear something like this from him.“I honestly do not support this,” Anta added worriedly. Jose patted her back secretly to calm her down. Anta might act tough on the outside but she is a softie who gets scared easily and very emotionalJose knew all these about her. She cared so much for their boss just like him. They both promised his father to treat him like their son whenever he was weak and needed help.But their stubborn headed boss with a heart of gold and a mind as sharp as diamond. He would not listen to whatever they were going to tell him but he was still going to try his best to convince him from doing what he had in mind.“I mean, do you have to do this yourself? We can employ someone to do it instead of you.” Jose complained bitterly. The decision Cephas was taking was very dangerous and no one knew the height of danger he could encounter. That scar
“Where is he going?” Sarah asked as she opened the door. She had discovered something huge and she wanted to discuss it with him. She didn’t want to discuss it with him over the phone that was why she rushed down to his house. Jose and Anta retreated behind their boss. “Will any one give me an answer?” She barked, everyone in the room shook in fear. “Jose, Anta, please excuse us. Sarah and I need to have a conversation.” Cephas ordered. The couple rushed out of the room hurriedly before things got serious. “What were you guys talking about before I came in?” The tone of her voice came down as soon as the assistants left. “A business trip.” He replied, returning to where his suitcases were. “With that tattered box? Why have you not disposed it? Do you plan on returning to that trenches?” “No, I am not going back there.” he retorted sharpley and glared at her. Why would I do that?” “Better. No one knows what is going on in your head. What business trip are you going to and it
She knocks on the door of his building. The passcode seemed to have changed since the last time she came to his place which made her feel angry and gave her an unsettling feeling.It was taking so long for him to open the door. She should ave called instead od coming wthout permsion. Does she keep crossing the line? She sighed as multiple times.“Why had he done that? Did he think I was being too obvious and forcing myself on him? But his body and reacted to him at the hospital. I just had to pretend like his erection was poking my back on night even when he was sound asleep.” She thought to herself then they door opened.“Good afternoon, Ms Williams,” Anta greeted respectfully, surprised that Tyla was at the door.Tyla was equally surprised that cephas’ female assistant was at his house but the other assistant who was a guy soon joined them.“Hello, Ms Williams,” he also greeted her awkwardly. They had not expected her to show up so early at his place. They had planned to visit her
“Did you even try to settle?” Mrs Marcus scolded her daughter who was in tears as reality slapped her hard in the face. “That boy really got you arrested and you could not slap some sense into him.”Her mom had come to see her four weeks after she got sentenced to jail. She didn’t complain because her father was still very much sick and was still in the hospital. Her mother looked perfectly healthy and alright.She didn’t even look like something was wrong with her husband somewhere.“Settle? He wasn’t even going to talk to me after I got arrested because the case isn’t his. It was the government that charged me to court, that was why I asked you to get me a darn lawyer.” She gritted her teeth. “Why did you have to fight with your own sister?”“I am owing her some cash and I haven’t paid back, you know how she is when it comes to money.” her mom spoke like she wasn’t at fault. Violet had gotten most of her nonchalant attitude from her mom. That was why she didn’t like to accept her f
Cephas dusted the entire floor. This has been his routine for the past four months. His pay has been scheduled till his contract expires. They only feed them and give them basic necessities that they need to survive. All they do is work and work all day and night anytime they hear the bell.His life in the Lion’s house has been pretty much rough. There wasn’t so much unusual going on in the house. The servants were about ten. Five males and five females They also had crazy rules that restricted the househelps from interacting with each other. He had never spoken with the other men in the house. That was the most tiring part of working there.One time he had tried to speak to one of them there but he ignored him completely. Cephha knew he had to abide by the rules or else he would get kicked out of the house.So he focused while he tried to come up with ways to find out information from anyone. The place was very discrete. Their workers were never allowed to go out or leave befo
Pedro pushed the door open for his boss to come in. “What do you mean the Walter boy has been off the radar for some time now?”They entered their storage room. It was a hidden room no one knew about. Only the people that held high status knew about the secret room.The house helps and outsiders couldn’t even locate where the room was because of the location of how the lock was placed “Since his accident we don’t know if he is dead or alive but we checked his work activities. They are very much active, nothing has changed on the inside or outside. It was like when he disappeared a year ago.”Pedro reported as his boss stroke his chin casually, giving what he said a thought.The Walters are the most wanted enemies. They have given the Lions so much issues, and pretty much restricted them from interacting in the society with their real identities.They caused people to be aware of their strengths and how they can ruin the country. They had also exposed their illegal doings in the past a
“That’s me,” Elsa managed to say. “If you hadn’t tied my hands together like I stole from you, my hand wouldn't be creaking.” She spat at Anthonio with all the strength left in her.They used to be close in the past but he was treating her like they never dined and wined on the same table. Their work rules had prevented them from becoming more than what they wanted.“Was she talking to me?” He demanded from Pedro who was scared of his boss’ reaction.Pedro knew better than giving any of them an answer, they had been with the company for about thirty years.Yet, they kept getting on each other's nerves like cats and dogs. At a time they became friendly and fell in love.The conflict came in when Lion Giovanni showed interest in Elsa. The Lions made the rules banning the househelps and maids from bonding with each other. Antonio had given an offer to be promoted to an associate Lion to leave Else, He had picked his job over her. This made the Lion have access to Elsa. it broke her hea
“Phew!” Cephas sighed as he helped himself out of his hiding place. Blood flowed into his cramped legs causing him to freeze for a while before he could finally feel his legs again.He made sure that Pedro had left before he attempted to come out.“Why did you save me?” he questioned. He could not believe that the person that tried to kill him and his father was right beside him. “You didn’t seem like a righteous person from the discussion you were having with your friends earlier.”Cephas cautioned himself, remembering that he was under a disguise and he could blow his cover if he kept being emotional.“I did not save you, young man. I did that for myself. You must be delusional if you think that I would go any length for anyone, especially a stranger that I don’t know and have absolutely no connections to.” She smiled and sat up properly in her chair.“Were you putting up an act when I came in earlier? Acting like you were sick or something?” Cephas asked in surprise.“I was prep
