Thompson already had a bad impression about the man he saw. He thought to himself that Peter was trying to take advantage of his daughter or something. He was going for absolute confrontation. He would also caution his daughter, but first, he had to deal with the rascal he just saw. As he walked to Peter, his daughter and other followed him. Joel was laughing within him because he would enjoy the drama that was about to go off. "What are you?!" Thompson asked Peter with a thundering voice on reaching. This made Peter more afraid that he had ever been. "The man who saved you dad." Lisa stepped in and said with a smile. "The man who saved me?" Thompson said. He was confused. "Good morning sir." Peter quickly greeted with a trembling voice. Thompson was not really interested in the greeting at this point. He wanted to know who Peter was. "The person the doctor said magically healed you, this is him." Lisa further explained to her father. The father finally got it. "You are the o
Thompson and his family went along to eat at the dining. Peter was not there because it was only for family and he was not part of the family, at least not yet. He was in his room, getting prepared for what would be a serious conversation between him and Thompson. He knew it would come to that sooner or later. He had to be prepared. Thompson was a very cautious man though. He knew when to bring issues up and when not to. Even if Peter healed him, Peter's relationship with his daughter bothered him. He however was not the type that would bring it up on the dining table. This was a happy moment and it had to be kept that way. They chatted and talked about all sorts of things while they ate. From work to fun stuffs and everything that happened while he was away. It was after eating and retiring to his room that he called for his daughter. She went into the room to meet him. "How are you feeling? " She asked her father when she got in. "As jumpy as a ten year old boy." Her fathe
Peter and Mr. Thompson engaged in an interesting conversation. Mr. Thompson was very impressed by his vast business idea. "I know the position I will give to you. It will.be announced my work welcome back party. " He told Peter. Peter was now excited. He did not know what it would be, bit he know it would be definitely better than what he did when he was with his ex wife. When Mr. Thompson came out and saw Lisa, he said to her. "That is a good man you have found there, hold him tight." This made Lisa smile uncontrollably. The news about his welcome party soon reached the corners of the country. No one really knew he was sick, but they all knew he was not active at work for some reasons. Now that he was back, they hosted welcome back party for him. The party was going to be big. Politicians, and business men were invited. It was compulsory for all the CEO and directors of the companies under him to attend. What this meant was that Mary and Roland would have to attend the party
She had a plan that night and it was to destroy Peter's reputation before the president of all companies. After the guards helped Lisa and Peter evade the paparazzi, they went inside. The jaws of everyone who knew Peter dropped as he stepped in in so much glamour. Mary and Roland were surprised to see him. He looked good the last time they saw him, but he did not look this good. They had to go quiet and look at him with their hearts as heavy as though the whole world was above them. Vivian took her seat with Thompson. Thompson had to excuse himself for a moment to make a speech. He went up to the podium. "Thank you everyone." He said to the crowd. "Thank you all for coming to my welcome back party." He added. "I have been away for a while due to some unfortunate circumstances." He said to the crowd. "Now, I am back. Resuming full duties at the companies." He landed in his speech. "You all should have fun and enjoy yourselves." He added before leaving. This made the people
"He really did this?!" Vivian asked herself. "After everything I told him about that scumbag, he still went ahead and gave him such a big position?!" She screamed within herself. Mary and Roland were shocked. They could not believe this. Peter was becoming their boss!Lisa was very happy and it was hilarious, looking at Peter's confused face. Peter was in complete awe. He did not know what to do. For all he knew, he would be given a small position and Vivian would have killers that opportunity for him after spoiling his name to the man. He turned to Lisa, who was overly happy for him. "What is happening?" He asked her. "I told you not to worry about it." She reminded him. Peter was out of words. Even Joel and Shawn were surprised. They did not understand what Thompson was doing or why he was doing it. "I honour him with this position because he is the reason I am standing here today. More than that, he has an untapped business potential that I strongly believe will guide t
Shawn opted to enter the same car with Thompson on their way home. "I do not understand what you did in there." Shawn asked his elder brother. "What do you not understand?" Mr. Thompson responded. "How could you give such as crucial position to a no body." Shawn asked him. "He's a human like us with enough enthusiasm. He will bring something new to the table." Thompson explained. "With that, you're supposed to start with something small. Maybe as he progresses and gets better, you can upgrade him. Not just pushing him that far." Shawn replied. "You worry too much brother " Thompson told him. "Why don't. You just let me do my thing the way I see fit." Thompson added. Shawn was furious. "I just hope you're not doing this because you feel indebted to him for saving your life." Shawn said. "How about we end this conversation and talk about something else?. " Thompson told his brother. "I have my reasons for doing things that I do and I do not feel I should be questioned about the
Peter was surprised that she said this to him. Normally, they had romantic tendencies, bit she came out too blunt this time. He did not know what to do. "I really can not stop thinking about you Peter. I have tried to keep it civil, but I can not any longer. I loved you." She poured her heart to him. Her last words swept his feet. "Tell me you do not feel the same way about me?" She asked him. "I have feeling for you, I won't lie, I do." He said to her. "I just do not want to get hurt again." He added. "I promise you, this won't end the other. I am nothing like your ex wife, Mary and my family is nothing like hers. I promise to be the best woman for you." She said to him. "Just give me a chance." She added. Peter had many thoughts running through he mind this time. He did not know what to say. He was overwhelmed. He had to deal with his new job and now, he head to deal with the fact that Lisa just poured her heart to him. He respected her very much and had deep feelings f
When Lisa was afraid that her father would kill her if he found out she was with Peter over the night, she did not mean literal kill or even scolding. Her father always had a weird way of mocking her and making her feel shy anytime such things came up and she hated it really much. If anything, Mr. Thompson was happy that his daughter finally found someone she loved after being single for over five years after college. He really wanted her relationship with Peter to work because he saw Peter as fit to be with his daughter and most deserving. They both went on to working together with him teasing her every now and then. "Dad, one more word from you about it and I'm gone! I won't help you anymore." She told her father when she was tired of the teases. "Okay okay. I won't do it again. " He assured her, only do it few minutes later. She was upset, but she couldn't leave. She was used to her father. She knew that was how he was and he was just for the fun of it. Her father was alw
