She picked a bottle of wine. She poured some wine into the glass that was on the table. She seductively walked to Jerome. Her head was full of pride.

"Hello, handsome." She said in a coquettish tone.

Jerome stared at her with no emotions in his eyes. The lady thought Jerome was mesmerized by her beauty and so it boosted her confidence. She decided to take the first step. She was about to lean in his arms when Jerome suddenly kicked her.

"Bitch, do you not know your boundaries? How dare you touch me with your smelly body." Jerome's tone was cold.

" Mr." The lady cries out. It was so embarrassing. The people presented all turned their attention to her. She pitifully bit her lips. Hoping he would regret his actions. Her expression would have moved any ordinary man but who was Jerome? He didn't care about her and felt disgusted.

"Mr. Swift, is this why you invited me here?" He was angry.

" I'm sorry, Mr Jerome. I thought it was good to be entertained. I didn't mean to offend you." S

    "So Jerome, when are you getting married? You are now rich and have everything; at least you should have a woman by your side," Gaius said."Don't mind him; women are troublesome. Just be single and enjoy your wealth. You can pick a woman anytime you are in the mood," Steve disagreed with him."Tsk, tsk, no wonder your grandmother is busily arranging dates for you. With this mindset, you would die single," Gaius clicked his tongue and said like a disappointed father."Of course, being single is the best thing. At least I won't die young," Steve said in a proud tone."And who said you would live long if you don't get married? Poor you," Gaius said."Jerome, what do you think?" Steve turned to Jerome, hoping he would back him."I think I will have to tell the old lady what you said. My dear, it's not good to die single. No wonder, you don't have sense.""Hahaha," Gaius couldn't hold onto his laughter and laughed out loud."Hey, man, you should be careful of what you say. Who said I don

    "And who claimed I couldn't afford such a meal?" Jerome inquired."Oh, Jerome, you remain the financially challenged person we know. How do you plan to pay? With your inexpensive attire? Or perhaps you'll take on a cleaning job?" His voice projected loudly for all the present customers to hear."Indeed, I doubt he can manage this meal. Why subject yourself to disgrace if you lack the funds.""If I were him, I'd have left in shame.""Such a shameless man."The customers ridiculed him, ceasing their meals to stare at him disdainfully."Manager, he is also a customer. Why treat him this way?" The waiter thought his boss was being unreasonable. Does he hold a grudge against him?""Just be quiet. Who are you to meddle in my affairs?""But boss, every customer should be treated fairly, whether rich or poor." The waiter retorted."How dare you instruct me on what to do? You're fired. I don't need you here." The manager angrily dismissed the waiter."I'd rather be fired than work under someon

    "Mr. Gaius, please," the waiter, who had just become the new manager, signaled for Raid to leave."You son of a bitch, this is all your fault. You have been eyeing my position for a long time. You planned everything." Raid stood up angrily and held the waiter's neck. "You son of a bitch, you will pay for this," he cursed at him. If not for the public place, he would have strangled him to death.The security personnel arrived shortly and chased him out. Raid was still cursing while being driven out. He swore to make them pay for the humiliation he went through."Aww my gosh, I thought he was joking when he said he knew the president.""Aww, I feel ashamed to sit here. I am leaving.""The gentleman wasn't bragging."The customers were all ashamed; when Jerome left with Gaius, they breathed a sigh of relief."Do you know Raid?""Yes, he tried to rape my secretary and beat him up. I guess he wanted to take revenge. Too bad he didn't know me." Jerome shook his head and said."That stupid b

    "I'm finished. If we do not get investors in three days, we will have no choice but to declare bankruptcy," Cambridge panicked. Things have not been going smoothly ever since Jerome left the company. If he knew this would happen, he wouldn't have driven away."Dad, is it serious?" Mia inquired. She rarely delved into the company's affair. "Very serious. Now what do we do?" Mr. Cambridge paced back and forth in a frustrated manner."Mia, why not talk to Jerome? Maybe he would consider your past relationship with him and help us," Mrs. Cambridge suggested."Mother, are you serious? Why would he help us after all that we did to him?" Mia thought her mother's suggestion didn't make sense."Why wouldn't he? We fed him, clothed him, and even sent him to school. Don't you think it is time for him to compensate us?" Mrs. Cambridge shamelessly insisted. "Your mother is right. Even if we didn't treat him well, at least your grandfather treated him well while he was alive. He needs to compensa

    After the receptionist told Mr. Cambridge Jerome was ready to see him, he hummed and stood up. He would put this boy in place today. When he got to the office, he knocked for the first time but there was no response. He knocked for the second time and no one responded. "What's going on here? Why is anyone not responding." He pondered. He knocked for the third time and heard Jerome's voice. He opened the door and entered. As Mr. Cambridge entered Jerome's luxurious office, he felt a sense of awe and wonder. The room was decorated with lavish furniture and exquisite art. He couldn't help but admire the opulence of the space. At the same time, he felt a twinge of envy. He had worked hard his whole life, but he still couldn't afford a place like this. Why is the world so unfair? How can nobody suddenly turn to somebody and sit in such an expensive office? "Mr. Cambridge here isn't a tourist site. My time is precious." Jerome said with an impatient tone. " You, how dare you make me wait

    "Jerome let go of him," Eleanor exclaimed. She didn't want Jerome to kill anyone. She didn't want him to become a murderer who would be sentenced to jail. Her boss had suffered and it was now time to enjoy it. Jerome didn't listen to her and pulled Mr. Cambridge's necktie tightly. "I don't want to ever see you again in my office. The next time I see you here in my company, I don't mind cutting off your legs and bulging your eyes out. Listening to his threatening tone, Mr. Cambridge began to shiver. He would never try this again. He didn't want to die early. "Ok, okay," Mr. Cambridge agreed without hesitating. "Boss, please let go of him okay." Eleanor knelt which surprised both Jerome and Mr. Cambridge. Looking at how the woman had knelt and how pitiful she was, Jerome felt bad and let go of him. When Jerome let go of him, he quickly ran out of the office in case he didn't change his mind. He promised not to ever step foot in here again. He took a taxi home. "That son of bitch. H

    Eleanor had closed from work early. She decided to pick up Rosca at the airport since she just arrived from the UK. "Omo, I thought you wouldn't come to pick me up. I wonder who is on duty today." Rosca said happily when she saw Eleanor. "Will you just shut your mouth for once? If I hadn't come, you would have complained. Now I'm here, you are talking." Eleanor rolled her eyes. "Of course I was surprised. I thought you wouldn't be able to make it. Hey, I didn't come with any luggage, let's go shopping." Rosca said. " I always already wondered how I got to meet a person like you. How could you travel with no luggage?" Eleanor stared at her friend like she was staring at a fool. "It's because I'm abnormal, that is why I got you as a friend. If I wasn't normal, would I have been your friend?" Rosca said with a playful tone. "So you mean I am abnormal. Roca!!" Eleanor exclaimed. Feeling annoyed. " Sh, can't see we are in a public place People will think you are crazy." Roca covered

    "Ahahaha!" Mia yelled in pain. "It hurts.""Tsk, tsk, you are weak, and you want to fight with me. Girl, you should know your enemy before you fight with them," Rosca looked at her with a disdainful gaze. Finally, she had been taught a good lesson. What a good day."Serves you right." Looking at the arrogant girl on the floor, Eleanor's mood lifted. She felt no pity for Mia."I will make sure you two pay for it." Mia pointed at them, speaking through clenched teeth.Eleanor towered over Mia, who was sprawled on the floor. Eleanor's gaze was piercing, as if looking down on her from above. "Very soon, your company will declare bankruptcy. Use that energy to save it," she said with a mocking tone. "Rosca, let's go. Don't waste your time on the bedridden lion.""Yeah, you're right. She will pollute our eyes if we continue to be here," Rosca chuckled and snatched the dress from her. Her stiletto heels dug into Mia's foot, the pain radiating up her leg."Ahahaha!! you whores.

The police have been working non-stop to find any traces of Jerome, but so far, there's been no progress.In the Cadell's mansion that evening, Steve and Gaius were present, visiting frequently. The old master, however, was visibly distressed, sighing every few seconds out of worry and fear."Is there anywhere else you think he might be?" the old master asked Steve and Gaius."No," Daniel replied."Sir," a guard interrupted, entering the room."The cops are here," the guard reported.Sitting on the balcony upstairs, they watched as four cops entered, and the old master stood up expectantly."Any news?" he asked."We found this... by the bridge," one of the cops said, handing over a piece of note to the old master."What is this?" the old master asked, his hands shaking."It's a supposed suicide note written by your

Gaius watched his friend suffer and feel uneasy trying to calm Jasmine down."Fuck this is frustrating!! Why does she cry too much? Does she have an ocean under her eyes?" Steve mumbled under his breath with a frown.Gaius helped him out by putting Jasmine's head on his shoulder and taking Steve's hand to stroke her hair gently. She came down shortly and Steve smiled, not long after sleep took over her and Steve positioned her well on the couch, allowing her head to sleep on his lap as he continued stroking her hair.Her beautiful face caught him and Steve began staring at her full eyebrows, nice nose, and such lovely lips too. He didn't know what was going on but his heartbeat is racing abnormally right now.Jerome had called the guys earlier and told them he would spend the night in the hospital with Eleanor since she had been attended t

Jerome's phone rang and Eleanor had to pick it up for him since he was driving.She put it on loudspeaker so that he could hear “Man. You guys are going to keep me here till night falls right?" Gauis fumed over the phone" What are you talking about? " Jerome asked innocently."Don't tell me you forgot?" Gaius said."What day is today? I don't remember today being any special or am I missing out on something?" Jerome asked clueless.“What hell with you Jerome!!! We were supposed to go and pick up my family today, can't believe you forgot," Gaius said, annoyed already."Shoot!!! I'm so sorry man. Take the lead I will join you soon I promise.

    "All eyes fell on James, somehow they were happy he was here because he was the only one who could handle Stanley's madness.""Have you gone nuts? Do you want to kill your grandpa, someone who cared for you as an infant even though he has never liked existence? He did his best by giving you capital to start a new life. You wasted the money and showed your stupid face here like the burden you are, and now you want to kill him? I swear to anything you hold sacred, if you do not put that gun down, I promise you will regret it, little boy," James barked at him.In a normal circumstance, Stanley would have thrown the gun away as soon as James scolded him, but this time around, he had a smirk plastered on his face. He started laughing maniacally, showcasing his madness."You fool, do you think the little stunts you pull still affect me? Grow up, man. Those empty threats of yours don't affect me anymore. I will advise you to clear my way, or do you want to die in his place?" Stanley glared a

    "How did all this happen right under my nose without my notice?" the old master said with shock."You have a good mindset, Grandpa, but it doesn't mean everybody's like you. James chose to take the part of envy. You did not choose for him, so do not blame yourself. As for Annika, she is just a green snake in the grass," Steve said, trying to calm the old man down."I knew that Annika's silence was a threat, but I never expected her to join forces with James. Nevertheless, I'm not surprised. I expected one thing or another from her," Jerome said without concern."Steve, can you tell me exactly how you managed to get them together?" the old man asked."Before grandma left this morning, I was with her in the house when James and Annika came down together, ready for work. I got suspicious, so I asked Grandma when the both of them became that close... She replied that it started not long ago, but from her speech, I could sense she was happy at the new bonding. I don't know why, but somehow

    Steve went straight to Cadell's company, needing to see Jerome immediately. He had been avoiding the fight that had arisen between himself and Jerome, but he was lucky enough Eleanor had talked to Jerome on his behalf, so they were fine now."Is your boss in?" Steve asked as he chanced upon Bright, who was just coming out of the elevator."Yes, he is in. Should I inform him about your arrival? He is currently in a meeting with the company board," Bright answered."Don't worry, I'm not in a hurry. I'll wait for him in his office," Steve smiled.Bright escorted him to Jerome's office, offered him a glass of water, and excused himself to continue his work.James came in with Anika, rushing to the meeting room, which ended abruptly at their arrival. All the board members stared at them with disdain."Why are you just coming, Mr. James, and Miss Anika?" One of them asked with a frown."Had to take care of some personal stuff," James answered simply."What about you, Anika?" Another person

She always has a new story to tell of her youthful days.Eleanor and Jerome had left early that morning because they had work."I do not see you busy of late," the old lady asked curiously."I took a break from work; my second-in-command is taking care of everything perfectly. He contacts me anytime he has difficulties," Steve explained."Okay, I was just wondering because the Steve I know is a busy person who has no time to spare," the old lady chuckled.There was silence in the room till the old lady spoke again."Why don't you use this opportunity and find yourself a lady who will take care of you?

    Jerome and Eleanor were still in Jerome's grandparents' house when a call came to Jerome's phone. He excused himself to take it; it was a call from the doctor who is taking care of Jasmine."Why are you calling me at this hour? Do you need anything?" Jerome asked."I have good news for you instead, the lady you asked me to be taking care of is awake," the doctor broke the news."Finally, I can rest. It took her long enough," Jerome breathed out."What should we do about her, Boss?" The doctor asked."We will come visit her tomorrow; it is already late," Jerome concluded."Allow her to be in the hospital for now; I will be sending someone over to bring anything she will need. Keep her for now till I come for her myself," Jerome instructed.The call ended, and he joined his family."What took you so long?" Eleanor pouted."Just business," he answered."Where are my grandparents?" Jerome asked."They said they had to go get some sleep, and also your grandfather said we should stay for the

    There was silence between the old man and his grandson, none of them was ready to talk. The old master was expecting his grandson to say something but the bitterness down his throat is preventing him from saying anything."Did you call me to sit here and watch you or you're going to say something," the old Master started to break the silence in the room."Why did you do that?" Jerome said simply."Can you talk in simple words? What do you mean by what you just said?" the old master replied."Why did you take such a decision and ask my friend to keep it away from me? It is not just anything this issue here, is something that involves my life. You should have at least told me about it if not for anything for the bond we share. Not for once have I taken any decision without telling you about it because I thought you were my everything and we have that kind of bond but then you proved me wrong," Jerome spoke bitterly."Why would you think that of me? You should listen to me at least, I
