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
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
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
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
“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 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
It has been thirty minutes since Milton arrived. He pressed the doorbell again and still no one answered. Milton was a part-timer cleaner. A few days back, he got a booking to come here. “Ding!” Milton pushed the bell again.Frustrated, Milton gave up. Just when he was about to leave, someone asked harshly from inside, “who is the imbecile who has disturbed me for more than an hour.”Before Milton could tell the person it hadn’t been an hour, a fat middle-aged woman opened the gate. She snarled at Milton angrily, “what do you want?”Afraid, Milton took one step back, “ma’am, I apologize for the disturbance. I am here for cleaning service.”“Don’t call me ma’am.” The fat woman snarled. She eyed him from up to down, “call me, Sadie. Who are you?” Milton replied. “I am Milton. Milton Jackson, ma’am.”The old woman narrowed her eyes at him, “what are you waiting for? You lazy thwart? Come in.”Milton thanked her. In the house, everything was scattered everywhere, it looked like a junkyar
Milton woke up with a piercing headache. Throughout the night, he kept tossing and turning. He couldn’t sleep even a wink, how could he when all he kept hearing over and over was Sadie screaming at him?When he arrived in college, something was amiss, the students were pointing at him while speaking.“The audacity he has. How dare he pretend to be humble when he is a conniving thief?” One student said, anger dripping in his tone.Another student supported, “he should be rotting in jail right now.”Milton pushed it off, telling himself they were talking about someone else entirely after all, why would they call him a thief? Down the hallway, the students continued talking. They were not hiding how disgusted they were by his behavior. Milton was sure the names he was hearing would keep him up at night. Nevertheless, he didn’t stop, took it all in, and finally arrived at the end hall.Milton assured himself Natalie wouldn’t be mad because he was empty-handed. He entered the hall and ask
