Arthur glanced at her one last time before snorting coldly. “You're a loser and will always be one.”Without another word, he left her standing at the place, just like in the morning.Once Arthur was inside Jesse's car, the latter started the car and drove off without saying anything. Arthur was expecting to hear a word from her but she said nothing until they got to the restaurant.As soon as they got to the place, Jesse came down and began to walk away but Arthur quickly ran to catch her.“Come on Jess, I don't understand your silence. What seems to be the problem?”Arthur was confused and kept wondering about the sudden change in her mood.“Why are you suddenly acting this way? Did I do something to offend you?”Arthur was clueless and kept wondering what must have gone wrong.“Nothing.” Jesse replied with a voice that lacked emotions.Arthur shook his head several times. “There's something wrong. Talk to me please.”Without another word, Jesse turned around and began to walk in th

“You are so pathetic.” Jesse whispered in her ears when she got to the place where Janet was waiting.“How can you keep going after someone who no longer cares about you? Have you no dignity and self-respect?”“No.” Janet blurted out coldly. “I have none of those things you just mentioned. I don't care about having them either. All I care about is to win Arthur back and that's what I'll do.”“Hmph.” Jesse shook her head and scrutinized Janet in a disgusting look before she continued. “Dream on. I assure you that even in your dreams, you will never win. Arthur is not a pushover. He might have been that to you in the past but not anymore.”Without that, Jesse turned to Arthur and gestured for him to follow her. The duo left Janet and began to walk into the mall.“What did you say to her? I can see that she's fuming already. I hope she doesn't put up a fight with you.”“I'd like to see her try.” Jesse replied as they continued to match into the mall.“About what I said to her. I told

Their leader took a quick glance at Janet's table and found her busy with her food. She knew she was now the object of their discussion so she pretended not to notice them.The leader turned to Bryan with a stern face. “Spider, do you know her?”Bryan nodded his head. “Yes.”“Who's she to you?” He asked coldly.“She's my girlfriend.”The leader kept quiet and only stared at Bryan for a while before turning around the place. Some people recognized them and were now glancing in their direction.He saw a few making some calls and deduced that they were calling the police. When the man turned his face back, he saw the waiter coming with their orders.“Let's get out of here now.” He whispered and they all rose to their feet and made their way out to the waiter's bewilderment. He paused in his tracks and gaped at the retreating figure of the men. The waiter was completely clueless of what was happening because he was yet to see their faces.“It's them. The united brothers' gang.” A woman m

“Good, now tell us. Where do you have your mind on?”Arthur lifted his face and glanced at all their faces while still smiling. The men also exchanged glances at themselves and kept wondering what was in the mind of Bryan.“Why are you wasting our time?” The leader snapped at him and he nodded.“Ok. I'll go ahead and say it now. It's Raremix mills. The company that belonged to the man who got married to my late mother and adopted me. They have a habit of leaving a lot of cash at the place before taking it to the bank.”“Oh, you think we'll get plenty of money from your father's company.”Bryan nodded his head. “Yes. I'm very sure.”“Hmph.” The leader snorted. “I hope you also know everything about the place and how we can go in and come out.”Bryan sneered and remained silent before uttering. “I know the place like the back of my palms.”Later that evening, Jesse drove back home together with her sister. They were through with the day's work and happily drove home.The girls had boug

Jesse eyed her sister but didn't say anything else. There was no use arguing with her because she won't win.“Whatever, don't you dare cause any trouble.” Jesse replied to her.Meanwhile, Arthur went to visit his Dad where he spent the whole night. When it was time for him to go home, he made his way outside the gate.“Arthur.” He heard someone call out his name and turned to see Janet standing outside. She had left Jesse's residence and decided to come to the McCains’ home. She had earlier wanted to drive to Arthur's villa at Salem street but decided against it. Janet believed that Arthur wouldn't be home at such a time and was right indeed.He went to spend time with his father after leaving his workplace.“What are you doing here?” Arthur asked in a cold and distant voice. Janet didn't say anything and began to approach him but he walked away and made his way to the car. However, Janet was quick and blocked his path.“She sent her sister to assault me.” Janet lied and got Arthur

“I know that. In fact, can we forget about her. She's not worth the stress.” Jesse added.“Can we talk later? I want to rest now.” “Alright, but don't forget to call me so we can visit those children together.”“Sure.”Arthur ended the call the same time the cab pulled over at his villa. He soon got down and made his way into the house. Even though Jesse told him to forget about whatever Janet did, he was still angry about it. Even when he was being greeted by his domestic staff, he didn't reply to any of their greetings. This action of his made Mrs Olivia anxious that she had to mutter to herself.“I hope the young master is not having problems in his relationship again. The other day, he promised to bring over his girlfriend to try out my dishes. What could be the problem now?”Mrs Olivia was looking forward to seeing the lady who had captured their boss's heart. She must be a very special person.After staring at the retreating figure of Arthur as he ascended the stairs, she turn

Jesse almost fell backwards but was fortunate to hold herself. She was wearing sneakers, jean trousers, and a t-shirt. It was the reason she did not fall to the ground.“Watch where you're going b*tch.” The woman barked. Jesse was speechless. She had never met anyone like that before. She looked really bitter and was like someone who had a quarrel at home before coming out.She even called her a b*tch like they've met before and even had a misunderstanding.“Ma'am, why did you push you? And what did you just call me?” Jesse raised her voice and charged at the woman. She had earlier dropped the bags on her hands.Jesse had almost descended on the bitter woman with her hands when a security guard held her hands.“Ma'am, you don't have to do that.”Stella, who was oblivious of what happened behind her, turned and saw the security guard holding Jesse's hand.“Oh, you want to hit me. Why don't you go ahead and do it?”Just then, Arthur and Jenny ran to the place. They were ahead of Jesse

“Because I bumped into her out of mistake, she pushed me hard and called me a b*tch.” Jesse explained to them. “You guys needed to see how hard I was pushed by that woman.” Jesse shook her head vigorously before blurting out. “That woman is so mean. I'm not surprised that she's Janet's mother.”“I'm so sorry about that, Jess.” Arthur apologized on behalf of Stella. He wished he was present at the place when it happened just to protect Jesse from Stella. “It is a good thing that I wasn't putting on high heeled shoes. If not, there's nothing that will stop me from falling.”“Don't mind that woman, she is lucky I wasn't there at that moment. How can someone be so mean?” Jenny added in a very serious tone. She would not take it from anyone who tries to insult or demean her sister no matter who that person was.“Let's not dwell on this anymore.” Jesse said to her sister. Such conversations would only get them enraged and that's not what they want.They were going to the orphanage home to

“Dad?”Arthur could not help but to panic when Gregg suddenly went mute. He had just said something to Bryan. Why was he not speaking again?Tilting himself, he reached out and began to shake his father. “Dad?”“Doctor, please find out what is wrong with my Dad. He's no longer moving.”Swiftly, the doctor went ahead to check Gregg's vitals while Arthur turned to glare at Bryan. He was praying in his heart and hoping that nothing happens to his father.After about a minute, the doctor lifted himself and turned to them with a very sad face. “I think we should take my dad to the hospital.” Arthur suggested even before the doctor was able to say something.He beckoned on Kimora and the guards to come and carry Gregg. However, the doctor stopped him.“There won't be any need for that because your Dad is gone. He's dead.”“No.” Arthur screamed and fell on his father's body, shaking it vigorously.“Dad, no. Please don't do this to me. Wake up and talk to me.”Bryan, who was kneeling on the

With a stunned look, Arthur rushed towards his father. He tilted himself and tried to lift Gregg's face which was not visible to him. “Dad?”That moment when his father did not open his eyes, Arthur's heart began to pound hard. He thought that Gregg was dead.Turning to face Kimora, Arthur asked him with a raised voice. “What happened to him? I thought you said that he wanted to see me.”“Yes, that's what he said to me a while ago. Maybe he slept off before you came.”Without wasting any more time, Arthur checked Gregg and saw that he still had a pulse before he began to shake him. “Dad, wake up.” “Kimora, call the doctor immediately. I think my Dad's not well.”While he was vigorously shaking his father, the man gradually opened his eyes and called out his name.“Arthur, you're here.”“Oh, Dad. You scared me. Are you okay?” Arthur let out a deep sigh as he kept gaping at his father.He tried to help him sit up but Gregg refused. “I'm ok this way.”“Are you sure?”“Yeah, I'm sure. I

Jesse stood up and started towards the door but Nick didn't follow him. He was still so dumbfounded.Dazed, he kept staring intently at Arthur and also at the sisters.“Um, Sir….. Do you mean, uh… Did you just promote me as the new manager of this great organization?”With a smile that reached his eyes, Arthur nodded at him. “Yeah, I just did that. You're now the manager of this organization and I hope you'll not disappoint.”Placing his left hand on his mouth, Nick let out a gasp. “Oh my God. Wow!” Out of impulse, he fell on the ground and began to thank Arthur. “Thank you so much Sir. This is really unbelievable.”“Thank you, Thank you Sir.” Nick kept appreciating him. He could not also get himself to address him as Arthur after what he had just done for him.Arthur has changed his status. From a mall guard to a manager. It was indeed a very huge elevation.“It's ok Nick, stand up. You don't have to fall on the ground to show your appreciation. I can already see how grateful you ar

They were her ex boyfriend and ex friend, Anderson and Michael. The duo came to shop at the mall when they saw the media hovering around some people. The couple decided to find out what was going on. It was then that they saw Jesse and her sister standing alongside some rich young guy who just announced himself as a rich heir.Once their eyes met with each other, Jesse smiled and raised her brows at them before clinging tightly onto Arthur's arm. She no longer cared about the multiple cameras before her face. At the moment, she just wanted her ex friend and ex boyfriend to feel envious of her.When Arthur was no longer interested in replying to their numerous questions, he turned around and began to walk into the mall together with Jesse and Jenny. As they made their way into the mall, the journalists wanted to follow after them but were stopped by the bodyguards and the other security guards.Anderson and Michael could not get themselves to go into the mall as they stood back outside

“But I didn't ask you to kidnap anyone. I didn't ask you to commit a crime. Why did you have to kidnap Arthur's girlfriend? You should have….”“That's enough mom.” Janet replied with her voice raised as she turned around and faced her mother. Her raised voice distracted the others and an officer came to give her a stern warning.When the police officer left, Janet let out a deep sigh before saying to her mother. “It was all your fault, Mom. You pushed me into doing what I did. If you were ever a good mother, I would not have turned out like this and ended up here.”After glaring at her mother one last time, Janet snorted at her. “Just get me a good lawyer. That's the only help you can offer right now.”Stella was about to say something when a policeman came to meet them. “Ma'am, you should leave now. You've had enough time with her. Just go and get a lawyer because she'll be charged to court soon.”Without another word, Stella turned around and left the place to get a good lawyer.Des

“Please, have pity on my daughter.” Stella's voice was heard as she ran towards them and fell on her knees before Arthur.“Please, forgive Janet. I promise that she'll never do anything like this again.”Stella, Janet's mother, had been informed of her daughter's current predicament. She was also informed of her actions that led to her arrest so she hurried to the station.Even though she pushed Janet into such action, she never asked her daughter to commit a crime just to get money. However, she also took some blame. She had not been a good mother but Janet was still her daughter and she loves her dearly.“Arthur, for old times sake, please don't send my daughter to jail.”The trio watched the woman with disdain and exchanged glances. They said nothing at first. Turning to Jesse, Stella held onto her legs. “Ma'am, I understand that you're the victim. But please forgive my daughter and talk to your boyfriend. I promise you that nothing like this will ever happen again, I'll make sure

Swiftly, he took out his phone to pick the call. It was from the police and they had found Jesse.Jenny watched in anticipation as Arthur answered the call. She was even distracting his conversations with the police.“Is that the police? I hope they have good news this time?” Although from Arthur's tone, she could deduce that it was the news she had been anticipating.Arthur raised a finger at her and she stopped disrupting his call. However, she was already pacing the place in restlessness.“Ok, we'll be on our way.” With so much delight, Arthur turned to Jenny and nodded at her. “Jesse's has been found. I told you that the police will find her.”“Wow! That's great. Come on, let's go meet her. In fact, I need you to put a call through to that number which just called and let them give the phone to Jesse.”Jenny had started walking towards the car but stopped in her tracks to talk to Arthur.“Hurry up and dial the number. I want to speak with Jesse to find out how she's doing. I hope

“Please, just go back home and let us do our job. We understand that you're trying to help. However, the best way you can help now is by not getting involved so as not to escalate the whole situation.”After a long pause, Arthur nodded at the policemen and instructed Dario.“Please drive back home.”“Right away Sir.”The officers drove away from there while Dario turned to the direction leading to Arthur's home.Meanwhile, the policemen that had been following Janet were surprised to see her pull over at her mother's coffee shop. From where they were watching, they saw her alight from the car and started towards the door of the shop.They had thought that she had other places to go. After waiting fruitlessly for some time, one of the men stylishly went closer to her car and placed a tracker on it. After that, they left the place.The police were certain that Janet knew about their presence which was why she stayed put at the coffee shop.After successfully placing the tracking device

Arthur stood speechless at a spot. He could not believe that Jenny was blaming him for Jesse's kidnap. She was even calling Janet his girlfriend.“She's not my girlfriend and will never be one. Jesse is the only woman I love.” Arthur spoke to the retreating figures of the ladies. However, no one replied to him.Once Jenny was out of sight, he took out his phone to make a few calls. He also contacted Axel to make the necessary arrangements for Benita's education. He had already made the promise to the girl and won't go back on it.After forcing himself to eat something, Arthur tried to plead with Jenny to eat. However, she was able to come out of the room after much persuasion.“Please, come and eat something.”“Have you heard from the police?” Jenny asked Arthur with a serious face, she was already looking sick from getting worried for her sister's safety.“Nothing yet.” Arthur replied with his eyes glued to hers. “Please, eat something first so you can have the energy to worry about
