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
"My brother met you and spoke I'll to you, yeah?" She asked him "He did and it was not funny." He said to her, still being serious. She took a deep sigh. "My brother is a pain in the ass. He hates everything I hate and never wants what is best for me." She tried to explain to him. "But I will talk to him. I will make sure he does not do this again." She said to him. "I think I should even do it now." She said as she stood up and left. Joel's bedroom Joel was in his room, while a maid was arranging. He sat on the chair and watched her lay hiss bed for him and grew lustful. He stood up went to her and smacked her butt.She turned immediately, startled. "You look lovely today." He said to her. "Thank you sir, but I have to finish arranging quickly." She told him. She knew what he wanted. He was a pervert and tried to make out with all the maids his age in the house.He succeeded with some and did not with the others. This one one he did not succeed with and he wanted to use the
Mary's home. The same morning. Mary woke up by Roland's side. She was troubled that she could not sleep. She woke up feeling very down. She stood up and went out to the kitchen. It was a Saturday, so it was a resting day. At the kitchen, she met her mother cooking. "Good morning mom." She greeted her mother. "Good morning." Vivian replied. Vivian then turned to her and saw that she was not okay. "Are you feeling well?" Vivian asked to be sure. "I'm not mom. I am not." She said to her mother. "I have told you. Do not worry about Peter. We I'll find another way to bring him down, to make the world and Mr. Thompson and his family see him for who he really is." She said to her daughter, trying to calm her down. Mary was not having it. She was really scared. "But I can't calm down mom. I will be seeing him in the office and I will have to call him sir." She said to her mother. "You will do no such thing. When you go to the office, call him by name. He has low self esteem and will
Joel walked to his father later in the day. His father was in the study, working. "Good afternoon dad." He told his father when he entered the study. "Good afternoon my son " his father replied him. He sat close to his father. "I haven't seen you since morning, I even thought you went out." His father said to him. "I did not dad. I had been in my room all day." He replied his father. Thompson news surprised. He knew Joel and Joel was a type that was always on the road. Especially on a Saturday. He would be out with his friends, partying by now, but he was at home, which was very different. Thompson however did not want to say it out. He decided to keep it in him because he did not want to cause any drama between them. Truth be told, he was not free with Joel the way he was with Lisa. Not that he loved Lisa more or anything like that, but that is just how it was. Since Lisa was always working with him and they spent more time together, she was closer to him and he could tease h
