“Thank you, Milton.” Said Natalie. Her voice came out a little bit sexier and cuter than she intended. Tiwari just shook his head. Milton smiled at her, “don’t mention it.” “You are so kind, Milton. I can’t start to appreciate how much you have been of help. My father is safe and so is me.” Natalie continued her gratitude. Tiwari looked at the door where Bryson had disappeared promising to return in a few. If Tiwari had stayed with them for more than ten minutes, he was going to crack or scream bloody murder. Tiwari was getting better at letting Milton take the wheel, and so far, he thought things were okay. He wasn’t mad Milton and Bryson sent someone to look after Natalie’s father. No. It was high time he let Milton fly and soar to the sky so he would reach his potential. He started wrongly, but he didn’t regret it. At least if asked, he would say he hasn’t sold him off. One thing remained constant, Tiwari wasn’t going to let Milton go anywhere alone. No. He was the only one
Now that they knew who he was, they retreated whenever they saw him. If it were Bryson Jackson, he would have laughed out loud, not caring how they acted toward him. But since it was Milton, he felt different. He didn’t want his employees to shudder at the sight of him. He wanted them to be free whenever they saw him. To bring up complaints whenever they had one. To ask anything since what Milton wanted the most was the company to know, here, they were a big family. And so, after explaining this to Bryson, Bryson couldn’t help but say, “you have a big heart.” Although it was only hours after the big revelation they were brothers, someone might think they knew this long ago. Perhaps it was a charade from Bryson, perhaps he indeed has let mother virtue show him a good way, either way, he didn’t plan on soiling Milton’s good wishes. And so, Bryson informed him he would help in whatever way Milton wanted. Throughout the day, Milton was busy in busy, but Aida didn’t disturb him even
“Thank you for your hard work.” Milton addressed the team and they bowed respectfully. When they rose to leave, some didn’t meet his eyes. Natalie stayed back and when all of them cleared the boardroom, she turned at Milton excitedly and congratulated him, “that was great. Oh, you are so wonderful.” His welcoming smile sent shivers down her spine, so she jumped at him and hugged him tightly. Milton of course didn’t reciprocate, he just sat there like a statue.When Natalie realized, she pulled away and cleared her throat, stood straight, and informed Milton she would call Mr. Genya straight away and inform him of what happened. “Don’t fret. Follow me to the office.” Milton said. He ignored Natalie’s eyes on him as they headed to his office. Inside the office, they found Aida and Brianna chatting. They left when Milton said, “I and Miss Natalie need a few.” They called Mr. Genya immediately and Natalie briefed him on what they have discussed. Since the construction at Kipindi Rura
“Why didn’t you take him to the doctor?” Milton asked, swiftly jumping over the sofa and into where Tiwari was holding a bleeding Troy. “Because the hospital is a no for us in this situation. Have we never spoken about this?” Tiwari snapped. “Okay. Easy there, I understand.” Milton said and looked around. When he didn’t see Bryson, he panicked. “Where are Bryson and Brianna?”“Shit!” Tiwari cussed and motioned for Lucinda to come and help Troy. “Tiwari, where is my cousin?” Milton asked, his mind already coming up with bad imaginations.“You mean brother?” Tiwari asked while removing his phone from his pocket. “This is not the time for games,” Milton answered, his eyes scanning the room as if Bryson might have entered and was hiding behind the seats. “He will be here. He went to pick the doctor.” Tiwari said and finished speaking with Bryson on the phone. “And Brianna?” Milton shouted. “Calm down, Brianna is…” “Brianna is here,” Brianna said from the door before Troy would repl
Seeing the pictures of Dickson, Milton Jackson didn’t know who to call a fool. Natalie who cheated on him with Dickson or Rickie who hit his brother and took a picture of his broken nose?The ambush, leading to some of his men killed and injured left Rickie Colton desperate.Unluckily, he didn’t think this through throughout. First of all, after he abducted Bryson, Milton didn’t run up and down and rescue him, it was Dickson who helped. And secondly, Milton wasn’t the one who attacked him and saved Troy.If this was a way of Rickie getting something out of Milton Jackson, he had it all wrong and if it were someone else thinking straight, they would have worked with their brother instead of using their brother hoping Milton would take bait. Aida cleared her throat, and Milton thanked her, “you did well, Aida. Thanks.” Miss Aida walked away but not before glancing between Milton and Natalie. She was interested in knowing what Natalie showed him, nonetheless, it wasn’t in her place t
*EARLIER*Tired of waiting for Milton and Natalie’s call about Dickson’s predicament, Rickie drove to Jackson Co. Hours later, he saw Milton leaving with Red Jones. He became angrier and contemplated leaving.But before he drove away, he received a call from his father telling him Milton has been declared as the second richest man in the city. Furious, he followed Milton and Red Jones to Shiny Bun Hotel. Whilst Milton and Red were eating, Rickie pondered ways to humiliate Milton Jackson. Rickie Colton couldn’t believe how lucky Milton was. News about Milton being the second richest man was the talk of every news channel. He just brought companies that were worth million dollars. Rickie fisted his hands angrily. How could he buy the companies and be on the news while he was at a middle-level hotel like Shiny Bun Hotel eating lunch as if the world meant little to him? What made everything worse for Rickie was when he heard what company Milton brought. The Genos Corporation. Oh.
“Didn’t I tell you Troy didn’t snitch on us? Why else would he stoop as low as this only to get the public’s pity?” Bryson asked, shoving the phone back to Milton. It was a picture of Rickie from yesterday at Shiny Bun Hotel. Luckily, Milton’s image wasn’t there since Meehan had acted quickly.Milton agreed. He could hear in Bryson’s voice how important his answer meant when it came to Troy and whether he betrayed them. Bryson enthusiastically said, “thank you.” “Uncle, how are you potatoes?” Milton asked tauntingly. “It is good,” Roger replied without meeting Milton’s eyes. Tiwari and Bryson chuckled lowly.On their way to work, Tiwari informed Milton that he had a meeting with the newly appointed CEO of Jackson Inc. Milton didn’t ask why he was telling him and not Aida. At the office, Aida informed him of his day schedule and then handed him the final reports of the Easts project. It was done. And everyone had already gone through it. And if anyone asked, it was none of Milto
The email calling for an impromptu meeting caught the investors off guard. And those who were in the city promised to attend.Alas, when they arrived, they wished they didn’t. They should have been out with their side chicks and some of them somewhere flaunting their wives. The new prison warden learned something. Yes, the one who was vetted and employed by Trevor Genos had been fired, because, why not?The previous warden was easy to push around and there was a high chance if someone realized what the Jacksons did, he would start singing kumbaya, something Milton didn’t want. Milton was the one who asked Trevor to ensure the last one was fired before his departure.Since Milton has nothing going on in the prison, and he didn’t see himself investing in any company supplying goods to the prison, he didn’t care who was employed.Now, he wished he had. As much as he didn’t want to worry, he was. Because even though the other investors were bored out of their minds learning why they wer
