SENT OUTThe next day David is prepared for his meeting with the Al Thani's; a bright look illuminates his features as he stands in front of the mirror in his room. He held the button to his well tailor azure suit and ran a quick finger in his short but lush hair. “I shall make grandma and everyone else proud.” He whispered to himself and grinned. Just then his door creaked open and his father came into the room.“Hey son, are you ready?” Patrick asked.Looking over at his father he smiled and nodded at the same time. “Yes dad. I am more than ready”.“Breakfast is served. We must get something in our stomach to withstand the pressure that might come with the meeting”. Patrick said like he was already having a feeling that something bad might happen along the line. He shook the thought out of his mind and placed a weak hand on his son's shoulder. “You will get through it successfully and we shall prove to grandma that we made it without anyone's help unlike that foolish girl Maven

GET HER TO SIGNPatrick ran after David the moment he was asked out of the hall. “David. Come on, what was that all about? That was rude and unprofessional”. Patrick tried to caution his son but David would rather not hear any of it.“Who does he think he can humiliate us in the presence of all those people? And you sat there and did nothing to them”.Patrick chuckled.”What would you have me do son? This is an important deal for us and you ruined the opportunity. What do you tell Grandma?”. Patrick asked as they strolled out of the building with shame.“We shall tell grandma exactly what happened. I am sure she would be pissed by Mr. Fred's nasty attitude. He is very pretty and acts like he owns the world before he works here. Ha!” David was so pained that he stood at some point wondering what kind of man his father was to even sit and listen to Mr. Fred make mockery of them. “Dad, I think Maven has a hand in this. She has been sleeping with that Fred guy and now he is bringin

A PLEA“Urgh! It's actually a Lamborghini not a Ferrari. You should know your car brands David. Maybe you need lessons on it I could teach you”. Maven answered him in a mocking tone and all she earned from him for that rude correction was a poisonous glare.“Look whatever!. Dad, I have longed for a Lambo and looked where it's parked. Who owns it? I know Maven can never afford this car and not even that wretched husband of hers can afford the car of my dreams.” He scowled the venomous words at her but she didn't react in her usual way. She knew that this time she had bitten all of them in a tight spot and bantering words with him was only going to make her become as bitter as he is.“Well I guess my husband and I now have at least one car to our name that doesn't belong to the Taylor family or even the Company. So gentle men, how may I be of help to you this sunny afternoon?” She asked them as she trailed her hand gently on the surface of the car. The chassis fluttered like black di

A FIERCE FIGHT“I do not want to be a part of this mirage. How am I even sure that this is not some sort of set up just to get me to do what I am not supposed to do so you all can get rid of me once and for all”. She said in a very loud tone.“Come on Maven, don't be ridiculous. No one has any plans to get rid of you. You are family for crying out loud. All we need is your help on this one time and that’s it. You get your share and your inheritance and everyone is happy’. Derrick said calmly. While wiping the cookie crumbs off his fingers with the serviette Maven had placed on the table. “Does grandma know about this plan? Because she asked you to fire me, why do I have to come in at every single point?’ she asked in a confused voice and blinked back the tears forming in her eyes.“Look grandma is only looking out for the company and the best thing to do is to let you go”. Patrick said.“Really?” Maven shouted.“That came out wrongly and I am sorry. Please do this one time for us and

YOU HUSBAND IS IN PRISONThomas was still at home when a knock came on the door.“Are you expecting anyone?” He asked Maven as he served some of the rice he had made into a small plate for her.“No. Not really”. Maven answered and ignored the door but the doorbell came chiming in the house again. This time it was loud and resonating. Thomas was pissed by the way the person outside was playing with the sound so he rushed out murmuring a few inaudible words to himself. He stormed out to open the door and the moment he saw the men dressed in black he paused on his track. “Good day officer, how may I be of help to you?” He asked them and just then he saw grandma's car pull up on the other side opposite the house.“That's the moron that harassed my son. I want him jailed and rotten in prison”. She screamed at the officers.“Mr. Thomas Miller you are under arrest”. One of the cops spoke to him.“For what exactly. Thomas put his hand on his waist and stared blankly at them.“For assault. Y

NO ONE CAN SAVE YOUR HUSBANDMaven drove back home in tears. She doesn’t know what else to do at this point because no one can release Thomas from prison except for her grandma who had put him there in the first place. She drove the car crazily hurrying back home to probably cry out her eyes in her room in the comfort of her pillows. But she thought about calling Sabastian to help her. Maybe his father could make a few calls for Tomas to be out in no time. After thoroughly thinking through she shook her head. Sabastian was on grandma’s side too and if he ever gets to find out that Thomas was arrested he would make sure he doubles the jail term for Thomas and that is not what she wants right now. She held the steering tight with one hand and began to hit it hard with the other hand. She got to a traffic stop and waited just like the other normal passengers would but when the waiting was getting too long she paved an illegal way for herself to pass through.She drove with so much seed

ANOTHER FIGHT The following week Thomas knew he had a lot to do fighting for his position as the heir to all the fortune and wealth left for him by his grandfather. Even though Pa Al Thani is still alive he has everything signed in Thomas’ name. He had given Thomas the ultimatum and the ball is now in his court whether or not he needs to make the old man proud. His phone rang in his pocket as he was about to leave the house and he answered quickly. “Hello sir. I will be with you shortly”. He spoke in a hushed tone before leaving the house. With his rugged hoodie he strolled out of the estate and just a few blocks away the car was waiting for him. A black SUV. Thomas got into the car and sat at the back with Sir Larry. “You tried to meet up with your time today”. He said with a little smile gracing the corner of his mouth. “Yes sir. I did my best so I don't miss out”. Thoms replied. “Well, that's good. Today is your second day. Stage two of the fight and I trust you have done qu

THE BIG PLANMeanwhile at the Taylor's company there is a big chaos. No one knew what was happening. They had successfully made Maven agree to follow them and since it was her grandmother's order she had to obey without thinking.The day Thomas came out of prison Maven marveled because he didn't even spend up to two hours there. When she asked him he told her the mayor didn't find him guilty of any of those allegations and so he was miraculously released. Victoria wasn't happy that he came back to her house yet she had no option but to let him stay since he does most of the chores in the house without even complaining. Meanwhile the morning before he left for his fight he didn't bother to check up on Maven because he knew that she would be fine with uncles at the Al Thani tower. And here she was sitting in her incles car while he drove her to the tower to sign the document. She didn't say a single word to him because she knew Thomas was out of the prison she feared he would rot in.

HOME AT LAST The moment they finished the duo got up and began to walk from the VIP lounge section to the main restaurant. Suddenly Thomas paused as a sense of danger hit him. His eyes shot a glowing green light and when Maven saw it she became very terrified. “What is wrong with you Thomas?Why are your eyes glowing?”she began to panic.From all she could see, Thomas looked like a demigod. “Is everything alright? The moment she shook him violently he came back to his original self. The green glow in his eyes died down immediately. “I think someone needs my help around here”. He said unbuttoning his suit as he began to walk faster. He increased his pace so much that Maven had to run along with him. “What do you mean someone needs your help?” she asked him but he gave her deaf ears and continued without stopping to say a single word. She called his name and ran after him till they got to the hall. “Call the ambulance”. Maven heard loud voices screaming while others tried to gi

A DATE The moment Maven got home her mom had done the decorations and a cake was placed on the table with candles. ‘What’s going on here? Maven asked as she walked into the living room. Lady Victoria had a smile on her face. “Happy birthday my child”. Lady Victoria said, handing the glass of wine to Maven. ‘Mom. You did all of this for me? Awn! Thank you so much”. Maven said smiling, she took the glass from her mom and sipped from the wine. “This is good.” She then cleared her throat and clasped her hands together. “Look what we have here”.She exclaimed and rushed off to sit close to the cake. I have a wish and I want to make it. She closed her eyes and took in a deep breath for a second before blowing off the candle sticks. Lady Victoria and Abigail clapped their hands happily. “Happy birthday Ms.” Abigail said to her and handed her a small box. “You got me a gift too?’ Maven asked with her eyes watering. “Come here” she grabbed the lady and hugged her tightly.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MAVEN "What agreement are you talking about mom?"Maven asked her mother. “You know about it already and Grandma here knows too. It’s long overdue and I need to get my life together. A life outside of the Taylor’s roof”. Lady Victoria was determined to get her life back at least for the rest of her days. Having a companion and someone to share her burden with. “Grandma, what do you have to say to this proposal?’ Maven asked, looking at her grandma with knowing eyes. “Mom, what exactly are they talking about? What deal do you have with Victoria? Do you have any idea Derrick?’ Patrick turned to his brother and asked him. Derrick shook his head. “I have no damn idea anything like this ever took place. “Whoa! Mom, that's pure wickedness. I thought all these while she stayed back with us because she so loved her husband and wanted to keep the legacy going. I never knew you had some contract running right under our noses” Patrick said the words without filtrating an

WE ARE SORRY Since the incident Maven has just been minding her business until Grandma’ request for dinner came through. She had always known who grandma was when it came to having dinner or lunch or even breakfast at her place. With all that has gone on she just doesn’t want to get entangled with grandma and her boys, just focusing on her job and if need be quit if another chaos comes. All that mattered to her right now was her peace of mind and sanity. Maven walked down to meet her mother in the living room. “Mom, did Grandma Clara call you?’ She asked her mother if she had her eyes glued on the TV for her favorite show. The lady shook her head repeatedly without taking her eyes off the screen. “Well, I guess we would be having dinner at grandmas’ I suggest you go get dressed.” She informed her mother. Lady Victoria looked up at Maven with a frown on her face. “I am not going to Clara’s house for no dinner” she said rudely, grabbing the remote control on the table. “Why?Sh

SENTENCED It’s been three months since Sebastian has been in and out of court. His Lawyer Bryan knows well that Sebastian would never win the case against the government and the Al Thani’s. The biggest name in the society. He had his head bowed in the cubicle when his lawyer made the last statement. The presiding judge Albert Wilmore sat on his seat with the wig hanging stylishly on his head. An old man from the North. He is presumed to be the best and sincere judge in the entire city. “Get me out of here” he whispered to his lawyer in a very soft tone. “I am trying my best. The judge is a strict one but I will see what I can do. “What do you even mean by that? I don’t need you to try, I need you to get me out. What’s there to lie and convince the court that I didn’t do it? You can’t even lie. Shame on you”. He said and just then the judge hit the gavel to maintain order. The break was over. The judge cleared his throat. “After hearing from both parties, this honorable court

LET THEM GO The moment she saw the news she knew she had to do something to save her son. She had gone to the station to plead and try to bride David but the officers wouldn’t let her do that despite the fact that they know her too well. “I need my son out of here. No one is saying anything”, she began to cry. Just then Thomas drove in. She threw her bag on the floor and rushed to meet him. “I asked you to get your lawyers ready. David is appearing in court in a few days and there is nothing anyone will do about it. I will not let him treat my wife like that all because of envy”. Thomas was still pissed at what David did. But before he could say one more word, the old woman fell on her knees and began to plead. Everyone came out and began to look in surprise that the all mighty Lady Clara Taylor could go on her knees begging a small boy like Thomas all because she wants her son to come out of prison. At this point Thomas remembered his grandma and how she had gone to her k

CROWNED The morning after the whole incident Thomas’s assistant called in. Thomas was still in bed when his phone began to ring. “It’s too early for all the calls to start coming in”. He murmured as she reached out for the phone. Seeing Greg’s name made his heart churn a little bit. “Greg, what do we have this morning?’ he asked in a greasy voice. “Sir, you have a meeting with the Lesotho group at 9am”. His phone was calm and patient. “I will try not to be late. Put everything in other”. “Yes boss! Greg answered. They spoke on the phone for a while listing Thomas’ meetings and activities for the day after which they ended the call. Thomas got out of bed grudgingly. After the whole drama for the week he doesn’t see himself getting into any meeting or sit but he had to do it for the sake of the company. The company has to go one way or the other. Just as he got the tip of his bed a knock came on his door. He turned his head to look over. He knows his grandpa or Lucas, his co

MAVEN IS DISCHARGED Lady Victoria has never been this rude to grandma but since Grandma has decided to bite the finger that feeds her then she would have to face the dance and the music she had set for herself. Thomas left the prison that instance and he headed straight to the hospital to meet Maven. On his way he had asked Grace Maven’s assistant to watch over her while they await her discharge time. He hurried and drove the car to the hospital and when he arrived at the front gate the men he kept to safeguard the yard nodded at him. They were dressed in black suits and black face Masks different from the security men who work for the hospital. He raised up using the elevator to the fourth floor where Maven was. He waved at the nurse rashly and wafted past her like spoke ready to consume a whole bush. This was the moment he wished he could kill his enemies with his powers but that would not be very necessary at this point. He is not big enough to face David and Sebastian. Rath
