Milton felt Lucinda’s eyes boring into his back. Knowing what Lucinda would say, Milton ignored her. He asked the servants to continue with their work after serving the meals, but from the looks of things, those words entered Lucinda’s right ear and left through the left ear.Clink!“Oh, Master Jackson, let me get that for you.” Lucinda practically ran to Milton.Milton leaned back and watched Lucinda pick up the spoon, then handed him another one. “Sir,” Lucinda said, taking a step back.“Space, Lucinda,” Milton uttered.“Well, look around us, space and space. No?”Bemused, Milton shook his head. He couldn’t win and he knew it. Munching on his breakfast, toast, and coffee, he was glad Lucinda didn’t strike up any conversation.Engrossed, he didn’t hear his uncle exiting.Milton was reading the bio of the four leaders of his territories. Each of them had a peculiar background but one person stood out. Simone.Humming, he stared at her photo of when she was young. He recalled seeing

“Miss Nala, I am of no help.” Milton replied with a bored tone.“You must help. I heard you are the king of making ‘miracles’ happen. What now? Are you scared of little challenges?” Nala taunted, smirking.“Little miss knows it all, you are no challenge,” Milton replied.Nala rolled her eyes and continued, “this will be bad for you, you know.”“I am well aware,” Milton replied, unconcerned.Nala clicked, “once things fall apart for you, don’t come running to us with tails between your legs. Trust me, I won’t be of help.”Milton shrugged.“Does your uncle know of this? I heard you wanted inclusivity, yet you are here acting unbothered by everything I tell you. You lunatic, do you want to die?” Nala was getting angry at how Milton was acting by all this.Milton didn’t plan on explaining himself to Nala. First, this was Bryson’s job. Secondly, he didn’t plan on working today. Thirdly, four days ago after Bryson returned, he told Milton everything was in place.So, what fuck happened and

“Oh, don’t be ridiculous. Agree immediately,” Natalie ordered.“Natalie, you are the stupid one. You only utter stupid things.” Milton retorted.Natalie scoffed, “Pfft. Have you moved from selling yourself to women to parading yourself to men?”Tiwari almost hit a car in front of him. The woman with Master Jackson was out of her mind.Milton rubbed his forehead. Speaking with Natalie gave him all types of migraines. They shouldn’t be in the same car.Milton narrowed his eyes at Tiwari. If it weren’t for him, he would have shoved Natalie into a Uber and now, he would have been thinking of so many ways to speak to his lazy cousin about working when he should be.“Milton, I need your answer. Now!” Natalie pushed.“Natalie, you cheated on me with Dickson. You humiliated me on several occasions and you still are. And now, you are here asking me the same thing I said no to. Get your head straight for the love of heavens.” Milton spat angrily.Meehan sent Natalie to Jackson Co. with the sam

“… he is your weakness. I know it, and you know it!” Said Meehan, his speech slurry. “He is not. He is my cousin.” Milton repeated what he had been telling Meehan for the past three hours.Tiwari was sitting in the corner across from them. He was tired of listening to the same conversation between Master Jackson and his friend but something told him if he dared stop them, he shall face Milton's drunkard wrath.Milton boycotted going to work today and luckily, he only had a meeting with Gabe Glen which Tiwari asked Miss Aida to postpone it. And a meeting with the Kipindi Rural planners which Bryson agreed to attend, after all, it was his duty.He has been here the whole day. Watching as Milton and Meehan rushed to the toilet to puke. Then return and continue drinking as if they have magic stomachs.It would have been fun to watch, only if Meehan’s words were lies.They were not far from the truth, although Milton yelled at his cousin, he cared about him. More than he should and perhap

He wore a black leather jacket, polo shirt, and slacks. Accompanied with black Cheaney Richmond R Derby Boot in Mahogany Grain Leather that Lucinda gave him, claiming, “your mom said I should give it to you when you reach of age.” As much as he wanted to ask more of that, he wouldn’t. How could he when in the corner of his eyes, he could see Brianna staring at him with doe eyes? Noticing his attention was elsewhere, Lucinda made eye contact with Marielle, and together, they narrowed their eyes at Brianna. Instead of shrinking, Brianna’s facade remained neutral, her stance stoic.Everybody wore black and they were ready to leave. Roger and Bryson joined them and they left for the memorial home. On the road, Milton listened as Marielle and Lucinda spoke highly of Crystal Jackson. Crystal helped Marielle big time by saving her from loan sharks who killed her husband. Even as she spoke of Crystal, you could see the shame in her eyes. They haven’t spoken much after Zelda accused Milton

Tiwari came an hour later with Bryson. Milton shook his head at Tiwari when he pointed at Natalie. If he mentioned Natalie’s name, he would have to spend another hour listening to Natalie just yapping and yapping. “Hey, Bryson.” Natalie greeted, pulling away from Dickson, without forgetting to look at him with disgust. Milton moved out of the way, something told him Natalie wouldn’t miss a chance to push him. Natalie purred as she ran her arm on Bryson’s biceps. Tiwari crossed his hands over his chest and stared at the couple. Then at Milton who was tapping his chin. Humming, Milton said, “work it is.” Bryson cussed lowly under his breath. Today wasn’t the day to deal with the likes of Natalie. “Bryson, why is he like this? Is he even your cousin?” Natalie spat, staring at Milton with looks that could kill. “Bryson, we need to talk. Call me as soon as you can.” Milton said and nodded at Tiwari. He would love to speak to him right now, but he thought against it, after all, it wa

“Milton, when you said I should work, I didn’t expect you to think I did be at your beck and call. It is disrespectful of you. Furthermore, you know how much I cared for your mother. Unlike you who didn’t take yesterday seriously, some of us do. We needed yesterday to mourn Crystal.” Roger yelled. Giving Milton no chance to respond, he continued, “you should have denied the invitation. “You are drenching the Jacksons’ name in the mud. Making a low life like Mr. Stone to treat us the way he wants. I am sure he has been going around telling everywhere he invited you at the last minute like a pauper. Only for you to show up, not by yourself, but accompanied by us. What have you been doing?“While we are at it, if you want to be disrespected by everyone, do it alone and not pull us all along. And if you have gotten stupider, you should remember I may not be Master Jackson but I am still your uncle.” Roger Jackson slapped his fist on the table, and the cutleries shook. Milton had stoppe

“Just as Brianna helped Ronae set herself at the Purple City, Crystal helped Mrs. Glen with her business. Fiona Glen is what she is now because of Crystal’s connection.” Tiwari explained. Milton hummed. “But before her death, things were not cool. Again, just like the relationship between Ronae and Brianna.” Bryson chirped in, staring at his cousin with adoration. Milton couldn’t help but look back. His cousin was giving him the creeps. “Dear cousin, you are getting wiser,” Bryson answered Milton’s unvoiced question. Milton chuckled. Milton was glad Bryson knew about the Glens. Although Bryson didn’t like to work most of the time, he was up to date with everything happening around the scions. He knew where a powerful daughter of a politician would dine and other useful information to use to his advantage. Gabe Glen tended to lose his parents’ money but it hasn’t been as bad as this time. His gambling habit has gotten out of hand. Well, Milton didn’t care but it was good to kno

Milton was furious. Tiwari had been by his side since his arrival. And now he wasn’t.He had to do everything possible to make Gabe pay. Hell, his whole family to pay for the damage he has done. Lucinda had gotten better and with physical therapy, she would get better. Tiwari was in a coma.Gabe has been in their basement for weeks now and Milton didn’t care what Brianna and Bryson planned on doing to him.He has been a nuisance and no matter how many times he asked him to stop, he didn’t. As Milton left the hospital, he promised himself to bring the Glens to their foot and hopefully, this would make Gabe learn his lesson. Brianna didn’t have any problem doing it. After all, Milton was counting on her. “We have the buyer ready,” Brianna reported when they got into the car.“Good. Buy it.” Milton said.Brianna agreed. Milton wanted Brianna to buy all of the Glens’ shares from them and then sell them. In the evening, Brianna informed Milton it was over and she took some shares too

“Sir, thank you so much for this splendid opportunity. We won’t take it for granted.” One of the farmers thanked Milton.Milton nodded enthusiastically. Indeed, it was the best investment he has done since he entered into business. Seeing the smile on the farmers' faces was something he wouldn’t miss even if he was asked to travel abroad to meet someone important. Milton was accompanied by Natalie, Genevieve, and Red Jones. Over the past few weeks, Natalie managed to make the employees understand that sometimes, the past was in the past. Thus, she has been selected to present them here. The training had been for four weeks straight, and Milton promised them to continue if there was anyone who didn’t understand well. As they were approaching Red’s parents, Milton thought. “I should donate for free the next time.” No one knew how grateful he was. And the great lengths he would go to see everyone succeed. Things have been better. Since he told Bryson he was open to being included,

Milton entrusted Tiwari to handle the whole situation and put it to complete rest, forever. He didn’t think too deeply of the possibility it was someone in his inner circle, after all, he had planned on Rickie Colton. He was absent-minded most of the morning and luckily, he only had a meeting with Red Jones who called earlier on and said he would drop by.He was thankful Aida didn’t take any meetings because he wouldn’t concentrate on any of them.At the end of the day, Milton Jackson finally decided what to do. He would risk everything and hopefully, it wouldn’t return to bite him in the ass.With Tiwari busy in the office, Milton called Brianna and asked her to drive him to where Rickie was. Brianna hesitated at first, “I don’t think this is a good idea, sir.”“I don’t remember asking for your opinion. Brianna. Just drive.” “Okay. Let me inform Tiwari then.” “And here I thought you work for me.” Brianna chuckled dryly and nodded at Milton to follow her. They went to the parking

Ahem.This caught the employees’ attention. Natalie couldn’t miss this opportunity to rush out of there. Before Milton would think of following her, Tiwari grabbed his arm and held it tightly.“What is the meaning of this?” Asked Genevieve. One of the employees gave her his phone while looking down, shaken. But, if anyone asked, they were not embarrassed at all. Or shaken that the boss has caught them idling around.Genevieve moved closer to Milton so he could also watch the video. By the time it ended, even if Tiwari searched for chains and put Milton down, he would still find a way to go for Natalie.It was a clip of the time Natalie had invited Milton to the party in college. And there it was, Natalie, shaming the living life out of Milton. Milton looked devastated. As if he didn’t belong.Dickson’s hand was around Natalie’s waist and he was smiling triumphantly, enjoying Milton’s predicament. Some of the employees have seen Dickson before and they knew this wasn’t one of the fake

They didn’t need a body language expert to see that something was amiss between Milton and his bodyguards. Unfortunately, this wasn’t useful.As much as anyone could see that Milton was fighting with his lead man, AKA, Tiwari, the pictures showed Tiwari was ready for anything if anyone came at Milton. He would fight to the death if he had to.His previous trials have failed miserably and it was high time he let go and perhaps, through miracles, he would get into Milton’s life. Rickie didn’t try to get anywhere closer to Milton unless it was vital like on events and all that.The pictures changed to Milton speaking to Bryson and they seemed to be arguing and when it showed Brianna and Tiwari staring at the two of them speaking, Rickie groaned painfully.Something was going on and if only he knew what it was, he would find a way into their lives.“Dad, what now? Please don’t tell me you want me to be a sucker like you because I won’t. Remember, you brought me into this and I am not lea

Malicious comments were always Natalie’s cup but these days, she found them tormenting and disgusting.Genevieve could see how she was reacting, and since she didn’t want any drama, she wrapped her arms around Natalie’s shoulders and urged her to keep walking.Things were not going great both at the Jackson Inc. and Warren Agency.Gabe Glen has been nothing but a nuisance, and Genevieve had no choice but to come here to meet Milton so they would find a way of solving it.They bumped into Simone and Genevieve let go of Natalie, “good morning, Miss Simone.” Genevieve greeted.“Hey, Genevieve. Natalie.” Simone glanced behind them and saw the employees staring at them. “The boss isn’t happy at all,” Genevieve commented and the two ladies only hummed.When they entered the office, Natalie almost returned and asked the employees if they had seen Milton. When Genevieve said the boss wasn’t happy, Natalie thought he was just angry.But no, Milton was furious. And clearly, it was for the best

Sooner or later, she had to accept it was her fault and no one was to blame. Hell, shouldn’t she be grateful that Milton was kind enough to open his door for her? Looking back, from the moment Milton began opening up to her, he wasn’t unclear at all. He didn’t let his hands wander. His eyes didn’t linger in inappropriate places. Milton carried himself with utter respect.Those signs had been clear. For Milton, he needed a crying shoulder. And she was the perfect person for that because once upon a time, they spoke of their dreams and vision. Things changed, big time. Her dream came through. What about his? Theirs? As a bright young lady, she knew for Milton, it wasn’t working out. If only she had been patient, she would have learned deeply about it. But no, she went ahead and asked him, again!She wanted more. More which Milton wouldn’t offer. Although she was his supporter, it didn’t mean he would tell her everything. Natalie knew sooner or later she had to wake up from the dream

“I will go on this ridiculous vacation on one condition,” Roger said, leaning backward.“Dad, I don’t think you have an option here,” Bryson stated, walking towards his father with calculated moves.Two hours later, Bryson, Tiwari, and Brianna realized Roger wasn’t going to change his mind. This was bad.“It is not like you can drag me there, is it?” Roger asked, smiling triumphantly.“Oh. Hush you.” Bryson said and walked out of the room, Tiwari narrowed his eyes at Roger while Brianna’s face was unreadable.“You must inform Milton,” Brianna said on their way out of the mansion.“Tell Milton what?” Natalie asked.“Oh. Gracious.” Brianna muttered. She hadn’t seen her in a while, she has forgotten she was still there.They arrived outside and Brianna asked Tiwari what they should do about Natalie. Tiwari shook his head and said, “we will let Milton decide.” “This means we should let him know about the plan, right?” Bryson asked from behind.“Stop sneaking from behind,” Brianna whispe

Since Milton and Meehan’s lunch didn’t happen last time, they figured it would be better to do it today and Aida was more than welcome. Natalie had been sitting outside for the past one hour while waiting for Aida and after realizing Aida was inside the office, laughing, she realized it was lunchtime and it wouldn’t be fair disrupting them. However, the countless laughter from inside frustrated her. Natalie knocked whilst they were laughing at a reel Meehan has showed them.Wiping his hands with the paper towel, Meehan asked, “Miss Natalie, have you taken lunch? There is enough here for all of us.” Aida and Milton stared at each other and cracked up. Emotions passed through Natalie’s face faster and then disappeared. If Milton and Aida hadn’t been still laughing, they would have noticed. Freely, Meehan pulled Natalie to the couch, grabbed the files she had, and handed her some fries. “Come on, eat.” Natalie ate, sparing a glance at Aida and Milton who hadn’t looked at her even
