After paying for her fare, Julia rushed inside the house hoping to see Raymond in the living room playing video games as usual.

When she didn't see him, she checked the kitchen, his room and other places she felt he could be, but he was nowhere to be found.

"Calm down girly, you can handle this." She repeated, trying to calm herself down as she took in deep breath.

She was still in this state when her phone began to buzz in her purse. Rejecting the call was the top most thing on her mind but when the caller wouldn't give up, she had no choice but to pick up.

It was Erica on the line.

"No wonder you married him. I was wondering why a whole Julia Brooks,a girl swimming in opulence would stoop so low and marry a peasant. Come on, deceiving your friends wasn't fair." Erica mused at the other end.

Irritated with her words, she hung the call only for Stella's call to come through. Frustrated, she swiped to receive the call.

"What do you want?" She scowled, trying to restrict herself

    "I'm your father, don't you forget that." Winston yelled. Smirking, Raymond turned on the TV then plopped on the couch opposite him. "Julia." Winston called, turning in her direction. "Uh." She replied with a raised brow. She wanted to give him an attitude because she felt Raymond had done more than enough. "Aren't you going to say anything?" "No." She replied, shaking her head vigorously. With an injured pride, Winston stormed out of the house and almost immediately, Julia banged the door on his face. "Good riddance." She hissed, wiping her brow as her eyes fell on Raymond who was staring at the screen of his phone. "I'm still not talking to you." She said with a loud voice. When Raymond didn't respond, she snatched his phone from his grip and then tossed it on the couch. With her arms across her chest, she said, "Mr. CEO, I know you have been itching to leave, right?" Wondering what she was up to, Raymond didn't reply. He was just staring at her as if he hadn't seen her befor

    Immediately the meeting with the investors ended, Xavier dialed a contact on the intercom and within a minute, Jaime was in his office. "You sent for me." He said, staring back at him. "Send messengers to get Mayor, Antonio and Julious right away." "Yes sir." Not wanting to lose his position for the second time, Jaime decided to change his attitude to work. He was up and doing, swift with assignments and was always ready to render a helping hand. When the trio arrived, Xavier rose, making his way to the middle of his office where they stood. "I need Raymond's contact and home address." He smirked. "Sir, ever since he left Dexx, I have been unable to reach out to him. I tried visiting but his previous house is now occupied by a new tenant." Mayor countered."Me too." Julious chirped in. "Same here, " Antonio replied. He had promised Raymond not to reveal his whereabouts to anyone, and that was exactly what he was going to do. "Really?" Xavier asked, chuckling dryly. "Sir, you

    "Hey man, you're there?" Antonio asked. "Yeah." "Xavier is hunting for you." "Why?" Raymond asked, jumping out of his bed as he glared at the wall. "I don't know. He offered me a million dollars to give your contact and home address away." "Look, I will give you two million." He rapped, reaching out for his cheque book. He was going to send Julia to deliver it to him the following day. "Come off it man, I ain't selling you off. I just wanted to keep you updated. Moreover, I still can't reach you with your former contact. That's why I called your wife." He said. "No, it's fine. Thank you, I really appreciate it." He replied then hung the call only to start staring into space. He was still staring when Julia returned. Sensing he wasn't himself, she poked him in his ribs with all her might, eliciting a groan from him. "I thought it wouldn't hurt. Remember you are always working out." She mocked, retrieving her phone from him. "I'm still human, okay." He scowled, rubbing his ach

    After breakfast, the four of them set out to the new mansion. While Adam rode with Niko, the couples rode in the new car. At first Julia was silent but it wasn't as if she didn't have anything to say. "Where are we heading?" She asked, breaking the comfortable silence."Our new home." Came the swift response from Raymond who was smirking. He was excited because he was living his original life now and was no longer pretending. "So… tell me, how did you do it"? She asked with her gaze fixed on him. "Do what?" "Hide your identity so well." Chuckling, he marched the gas then swerved towards the right, "It's not a big deal." When they arrived at the mansion, they stepped out to join Niko and Adam who had already arrived and were chatting lightly. "Did you enjoy your ride?" Niko smirked, tucking his hands into his pockets as he walked towards them. "I feel good. It's been a while since I drove a luxurious vehicle." Raymond replied, cranking his neck to the side. "Here, these are th

    Raymond woke up with a start, after looking around his room, he climbed out of bed then began to grope his way towards his bathroom to wash up. When he was done, he returned to his room then turned on his laptop to review his plans. It was Saturday, hence a work free day for him and so he decided to reveal his plan to his friends and Julia since she was now a part of the team. The previous night, she had asked him why he was bent on seeking revenge against his father. There and then, he told her his reasons. He told her about the ill treatment he had received from Winston despite the fact that he was the first son of the family. It got to the point that Julia couldn't hold back her emotions and so she began to cry. She had to stop him so she wouldn't tear up. After his tale, it was then she realized why he was being secretive with his dealings and also why he decided to act like a pauper.

    By the time they wrapped up the meeting, it was already past three pm. After contemplating on where to have lunch, they decided to settle for the same restaurant Raymond had been to in the morning. While they ate, they talked about casual things, throwing jokes at each other. At the end of the day when Raymond retired to his room, he turned on his laptop to continue from where he had stopped to modify his plan. "If only he knows what is coming for him." He muttered, popping two pills into his mouth. "Are the police going to be involved?" Julia asked, startling him in the process. He never knew he had company until she spoke. "You scared me." He groaned, swirling his chair in her direction."I know. So, what makes you confident that this plan is going to work?" She was towering above him now with her hands across her chest. "Because I have studied him carefully. His weakness is greed and that's where I have decided to tackle." "I see. But, the insurance company ought to visit th

    Immediately Raymond signed out, Myrtle who had been lurking around hurried towards him with a broad smile. Returning her smile, they began to chat lightly as they headed for the garage. When they arrived at the bar, Raymond led her to the reserved table then asked her to order drinks. "Sir, you are a heavy drinker. Should I pour more for you?" Myrtle asked with a soft chuckle. Three bottles were already empty. "Yeah. Go ahead, thank you for the drinks, I really appreciate it." Raymond smirked, giving her thumbs up. He was feigning to be drunk so he would catch her off guard. Because of the dim light in the bar, Myrtle thought he had been drinking the champagne she always refilled his glass with. Unknowingly to her, the content of his glass always landed on the floor. "Come on sir, I should be the one appreciating you. I invited you for drinks but you ended up paying for them. Thanks for the treat, I promise to put my best at work." She reeled with a curt bow. Smirking, Raymond l

When they arrived in Spain, Raymond decided to secure an accommodation in Presidential Suite, a five star hotel, while Niko went ahead to rent a car so that their movement would be unrestricted and smooth. Pulling their luggages out of the taxi he had boarded, he paid for his fare then began to head towards the entrance of the hotel. Just as it should be, the reception corner was right after the lobby. Immediately the receptionist saw him approaching, she wore a welcoming smile which Raymond found himself returning. "Hello, I'm Sarah. How can I assist you today?" She asked in a sing-song voice. "I'm Raymond Winston. I need accommodation for a week." He r

    Raymond has just left the correctional center and all he could think of was his father's face. The look on his father's face kept replaying through Raymond's mind. He would rather have his company crumble than let his son manage it? What kind of man was that? — he scowled, replaying his words in his head. On leaving the prison, he called Adam and Niko to meet him at their favorite bar. He needed a drink to wipe the images flooding his head. The image of his father trying to kill him. The image of him swearing to do it again, everything was making him.go crazy. Several minutes later, Adam and Niko met him at the bar and they began taking shots."It's not enough that my wife almost died, I had to go be reminded of the shitty ass dad I have."

    "Where's Raymond? I can't believe he couldn't do anything to help Julia rather he sat back watching that lunatic lynch her.” Mrs. Brooks said, storming towards the ward she had been directed to. The moment Raymond heard Mrs. Brooks' voice, he froze against the chair he was occupying. His hands immediately became sweaty as he braced himself up to face her. Niko and Adam looked at him in pity. They knew the history between Raymond and Julia's parents even if it seems they had rectified their differences and they didn't want to interfere.Immediately Julia's parents entered the room, Raymond stood up from his seat while they looked at him with disdain before they bypassed him and went straight to Julia who was still unconscious but was now stable. "Can you see what you've done, you see. I warned Julia not to get involved with a despicable person like you but she was swoon by your charms to listen to me. Now look where that love has gotten her." Mrs. Brooks yelled, venom dripping from

    Meanwhile, Julia was holding her head in pain, she screamed in sheer horror as she saw the blood streaming down her face, staining her clothes in the process. The noise coming from all corners made her so uncomfortable coupled with the pains she was facing. "What has Dina done to me, my head." She was still screaming when she felt Raymond's body against hers. Lifting her up, he held her tight and then placed her down on the floor."Listen to me Jul, nothing is going to happen to you, okay, I can't believe Dina would go this far.” He said, checking her pulse. Tearing his shirt, he began to press it against her wound. It didn't take long before the cloth became crimson red. "It hurts Raymond, it hurts." Julia screamed as tears continued streaming down her eyes as she lay helpless in Raymond's arms. He has never been in this kind of situation before and so, he was so confused."Please Julia wake up, you can't die on me please." Raymond whispered in her ears as tears brimmed in his ey

Without being told, she knew a lot of eyes were staring at them and because of this, she couldn't raise her head and look back at them. “If only Raymond had relieved her of her job when we asked him to, this wouldn't have happened.” She muttered, biting her lips in anger. “Hello sissy, I told you I'm going to get you out of the way so I can have Raymond to myself. You thought I was kidding? Damn! I wonder why a lot of people take me as a joke when I'm damn serious, Dina cringed, throwing her hands in the air. Niko wanted to stop her but Adam came out of nowhere and then blocked his path.“What do you think you are going to do?” Niko yelled, trying to bypass him but couldn't.“Let's watch her.” He replied, pushing him backwards. “Watch her as she attempts to kill Julia? Are you even thinking?” He yelled, still trying to move but couldn't. “Get your hands off me.” He yelled, pushing him but he wouldn't budge. Whi

While Raymond was using their hassle to keep himself from zoning out, at the same time, he was looking at the door as he awaited Julia's arrival. They had gone to get the perfect dress for the party scheduled to hold the next day at the shopping mall.“Bye.” He said the moment he saw Julia walking towards him with a broad smile on her lips. “How do I look?” She asked, swirling around for him to have a clear view. “Super.” He said, smacking his lips with a little smile. “You're sure.” She asked, raising her brow at him. “Of course. It's as if the tailor had you in mind when he was making the dress.” He said, accompanying it with a wink whilst she blushed shyly. After picking a few more things, the couple's retired home for the night. Raymond knew better not to tell her anything concerning Dina's plan. The following morning, after breakfast, since the party was scheduled to hold by evening, Julia decided to keep he

    Pursing her lips, Ava tried to forget about the conversation she had with Dina but couldn't. Meanwhile, Dina was busy eating merrily as she continued divulging more information to her. “Please stop it already, you are making me feel nervous.” Ava snapped. “What? Are you angry because I defeated you in our little game?” She yelled back at her, rolling her eyes to the back of her head. “That's not the point here.”“Then what is it? Speak now or forever remain silent.” She snapped, cutting a large chunk of her meat. “They are a couple, we shouldn't make things tough for them.” Laughing, Dina said, “Couples my foot. Also, I want you to clear that motion from your head. We aren't a team or anything. We decided to play a game and I beat you to it.”“I know I lost but come to think of it, you are taking this thing too far.

Thanks to the spyware installed unknowingly to them on their phones.” He said, gritting his teeth and seething with anger at the same time. For the next few minutes only Niko and Julia talked. Raymond and Adam on the other hand are just watching as they listen to their conversation. “So who's the culprit now?” Adam asked with a firm voice, hitting the butt of his pen against the table. “Dina of course.” Niko replied and immediately Julia slumped on her seat, all the while she was thinking Dina was the innocent one. The previous day, she even went ahead to share lunch with her, promising to help her find someone else. “This is crazy.” She said, shaking her head as she bit her bottom lips. “If you want, I can sho
