Victor smiled, losing his confidence a bit when he heard the question. Jim was seated calmly with his hands clasped together on the desk.“Well, it's not a very huge thing.”.“Okay, I am listening,” Jim replied, scrolling through his system. "Well, it's about the solar panels the Coleman group is making." Victor began in a slightly shaking voice. Jim put down his pen and focused on Victor.“What about it?”.“Well, there is no problem at all; it's just that I feel you are making a big mistake by investing in that business '. Victor cleared his throat.“I have watched Peter over the months, and all I see are great results, so why do you say otherwise?” Jim asked, flashing him a suspicious look. Jim had the feeling that Victor's visit to his offense would only be a trip to sabotage his brother because, all the while he sat with Peter a few days ago, he never mentioned his cousin coming to pay him a visit in Houston.“Peter had never been straight when dealing with people. My uncle's co
Peter and Tyler were still working on a few documents in the office when Mia's call came through. Peter looked at it at first and ignored it, but then, on second thought, he didn't know what Mia had to say, so he grudgingly picked up the phone.“What is Mia? Why are you after my life?” He said that and dropped the phone.I'm sorry for the meddling boss, but I think you should listen to her. Tyler advised.Peter frowned, picked it up, and stared at the number again. It wasn't saved to his phone, but it was in his memory. "Why is she calling me?" He sighed deeply.She's been calling for days nonstop, and I am beginning to get irritated. He paused and stared at it for a while."Your ex-wife? Same one that dumped your ass for some rich man?". Tyler asked."Same woman. That's her!" Peter answered casually."Maybe you should just answer the call and then hear her out; it won't hurt.”."There's no way I'm getting back with Mia. I am already in love with someone else. He spoke with all the a
Two days after Peter had met with Mia, he decided to be friends with her; at least she was once his wife. The day was slow at work, so he decided to check up on all the proposals he had gotten for the day. Tyler had helped him make a selection of the five best proposals to pick before his phone began to ring.“My phone…” Peter replied, rummaging for his phone, where he kept it. He was so busy that he didn't notice he had locked the phone in the last drawer on the table. “Why is Mia calling me again? I thought I made it clear the last time,” he murmured. Tyler winked at him and began to blush.“Please continue with your work,” Peter said with a finger pointed out. He swiped the phone and placed it on his ear.“Yes, Mia. What do you want? I thought I made it clear to you the other day.”."Peter, please come to Hannah's Ville; I don't know what I ate. I am dying." The voice boomed into the phone. Peter ended the call and immediately became unstable. “Is everything alright, sir?” Tyler
Peter had just gotten home. He had planned to sort things out by himself and not get involved with the police so it wouldn't get to the public hearing, but just when he got into his house, he found Kayla standing at the center of his sitting room.“What in heaven's name is happening, Peter? What is this rubbish I see online?” Peter asked casually. "Kayla, let me explain," Peter said, but as he wanted to speak, Kayla jumped in and blamed the whole incident on herself. “I caused it, Peter, to her. He didn't want to go there, but Mia told me that she was at the point of death, so I had to go. See, I have my evidence against them.” Peter turned and told her. "Yes, I have my evidence. There's a small chip on my smartwatch. No one knows about it. I kept it there for a reason. I noticed something was wrong, and when I realized Mia was not a clean person, I decided to add that chip to record everything, and I am so happy I did. Peter pulled the chip from his wristwatch and inserted the dis
Kayla looked at him and smiled. She had loved Peter From the beginning, but now she feels really bad for hitting Peter without first finding out if all that happened was true, it was already too late to regret it, though the guilt was going to linger for a while. Shenleaned closer and laid on his legs. When Kayla left his house that evening Peter decided to go look out for his enemy with the details he got from Tiger. There was no need to go with his expensive car on such a mission so he walked a long distance, angry and fuming, until it was dark enough for him to trace Henry to his little guest house. Peter trailed him when they had the issue at school, but he decided to refrain from his plan when he met his grandfather. He flagged down a taxi and went straight for the Blue Club apartments. He took his time to learn about the environment. He knows Henry's schedule even more than he does for himself. He had always wanted revenge on him, and this time he was not going to look bac
Mia couldn't grasp the message Peter had just given her. After he left, she hurriedly got a change of clothes and headed to Henry's guest house. When she got outside her apartment, she flagged a taxi and hopped in. Her entire body vibrated vehemently as she approached the venue. She hoped it was just some sort of Photoshop, but if it was real, then she was in really big trouble. Henry's mother is a well-known entrepreneur, and she had all the money too and he would fish her out as one of the culprits for his son's misfortune. She panicked and bit her lower lip in regret. But it's too late for all that show of remorse. For the years she spent with Peter, she knows he doesn't go back on his words. And if he had shown her what he had done, then that was it. The moment the taxi got into a traffic jam a few blocks from the Brothel she tapped the driver from behind. The man stopped sharply. She threw the cash at him, ran out, and jogged off the remaining distance. It was 7.30 p.m. as
She managed to put the call through and leave it. “His mother is a well-respected businesswoman in town, and he will be here soon,” she informed the doctor with pride. The specialist didn't express a lot to her. He turned out well for him and requested that the medical caretakers get things arranged for the medical procedure.Mia sat in the gathering for some time and, afterward, chose to extend her legs a little. A tight issue in her legs, she moaned, gradually easing the hurt as she could scarcely feel her feet on the ground. She left the reception, and afterward, similarly, as she was going to go off in an unexpected direction towards the backyard, she heard the booming alarms coming from the oncoming vehicles. Her heart siphoned boisterously at her. She stopped and turned, her eyes widening.She saw the patrol coming in from the front gate. She ran back inside as fast as possible, smiled at the nurse at the front station, and comforted herself. Henry's mom is here," she informe
Henry's surgery was done successfully that night before. Mia woke up with an ache all over her body. She stretched her broken leg and still felt the pain, although not as much as the previous day. She sat and took a deep breath while reminiscing on all that had happened in the past few days. It seemed like she had been in this situation for a hundred years of her life. She yawned and got up to give herself a quick look in the mirror. Her face was pale, with two pink lines cut across her left cheek. She touched it with a free hand and cursed.Mia's reflection stared back at her, mirroring the exhaustion in her eyes. She sighed, running her fingers through her tousled hair, which now seemed more like a tangled mess than the silky waves she was used to. The events of the past few days replayed in her mind like a relentless movie, each scene etching itself deeper into her memory.With a resigned shrug, Mia turned away from the mirror, feeling the weight of the day ahead settling onto her
