The law enforcement agencies had placed an embargo on "The Legends'" documents of ownership so that no one would be able to take any step against the company. Jakes's companies and investments had begun to flourish so much that Jakes had more investments within and outside Fitbuck city. He became so rich and influential within Fitbuck and its environs. He and Stephanie were going for an outing when Jakes began to talk to her about how much he had achieved within a short while."Sometimes, I'm so amazed myself when I think of how far this business has flourished in my hands," Jakes said. "Which of them are you referring to dear?" Stephanie asked her husband. "All of them, I meant to say. All are flourishing. Since we sacked the previous CEOs and replaced them with new ones, those companies have made so much progress..." "Wow," Stephanie interrupted. "I receive several text messages from the different companies telling me about their progress and the several projects they are seeking to
"I'm thinking very right. Something tells me that Stephanie is a good option for the company's CEO. She's industrious, honest, and very hard-working," Mr Allison said. "What makes you think that she has all these qualities you mentioned?" Mrs Allison asked. "What kind of a question is that dear? Why won't I know the qualities Stephanie has? She's my daughter, you know?" Mr Allison responded."If you make Stephanie the company's CEO, then you are indirectly making Jakes the CEO as well!" Mrs Allison spoke up loud. "I think I've heard enough of your complaints," Mr Allison said angrily, as he climbed up the stairs. As soon as Mrs Allison noticed that her husband had left, she decided to call Michael. After dialling his number, his phone was picked up almost immediately. "Hello, Mum," Michael spoke from the other end. "Hello, Mike. How are you doing today?" Mrs Allison asked. "I'm fine, Mum," Michael responded. "But what are the terrible things I hear about you? I was told that you execu
Mrs Allison had developed so much hatred for Rose in recent days that she became desperate how to separate Rose from her son. She had told one of their family friends Mrs Cole about her intention, and Mrs Cole was now very interested in the idea since her son was involved. It was a bright Sunday afternoon; Mrs Allison had the habit of visiting her friends on Sunday afternoons. So she decided to put a call through to Mrs Cole."Hello, dear. Are you at home?" Mrs Allison asked as soon as she noticed that the phone had been picked up at the other end. "Yes, dear, I am. Where will I be if not at home?" Mrs Cole asked playfully. "Okay. I'll be coming over right away," Mrs Allison promised. As soon as she ended the call, she dressed and picked up her bag to leave for her friend's place. Within a short while, she arrived at Mrs Cole's house. Mrs Allison drove into the very large and spacious compound. It was obvious that it was a house that belonged to a wealthy man. Mrs Cole was the wife of
Mr Cameron had filed a petition against Pen and Rescue, apart from instigating rebels in the company against Stephanie. The petition filed against Pen and Rescue was carefully devised to get back at Stephanie. In Fitbuck city, when a petition is filed against a company, it is carefully investigated. And when an iota of truth is discovered about the petition, the company could end up being locked up.Patrick, one of the Pen and Rescue staff which Mr Cameron used in getting some facts about the company had carefully compiled the company's weaknesses, especially areas where it was falling short, so Mr Cameron used these to file a petition against the company.An urgent meeting was slated for the owners of companies in Fitbuck city which requested their presence. Some things needed to be addressed about companies, and it required their representatives or owners to be present. This made Mr Cameron and Jakes present at the meeting. Jakes felt very reluctant to go to the meeting at first b
The coordinator was eager to hear what the man invited in had to say. "Good day. I made up my mind to come in here to tell you about what I discovered when I overheard you and this young man seated here talking about the petition filed against Pen and Rescue Inc.," the man said pointing at Jakes. "Sir, I'll like to verify if you are Mr Jakes Johnson," the man asked. "Yes, I am," Jakes responded quickly, expectant of what the man had to say next. "I started working with Mr Cameron recently and I came here with him for the meeting. However, I'm considering resigning from my job with him because of some of the questionable things I noticed about him," the man said. "Go on. We're listening," the coordinator said, expecting to hear more from the man."He branched to eat at a restaurant close by, with some friends, while he asked me to hang around. It was while I stayed back that I heard the conversation between the both of you. Mr Cameron is the one behind the petition filed against 'Pen
Logan always resumed work at 'The Legends' feeling that he was yet to achieve his aim. He always dreamt of destroying the company. He had been able to get the company's documents but could not take any further steps like he proposed, with the company's documents. Jakes had reported to the police about the stolen documents, so the police were on the lookout and Michael and Logan knew that it was dangerous to do anything with the documents, as it could end them up in jail.However, they were still desperate to destroy "The Legends", believing that Jakes will be left with nothing if they did that. "I will not retreat. I'll make sure I destroy this company," Logan thought to himself. He decided to call Michael to discuss their plans of destroying the company."Hello, Michael," Logan spoke as soon as he noticed that Michael had picked up his phone. "Hello. How are you today?" Michael asked. "I called to remind you about our plan against Jakes. I hope you haven't forgotten?" Logan asked. "Di
Rose was so excited about the documents Michael gave her to sign. Even though it looked a little cumbersome to fill, she wasn't bothered. She was happy that Michael had fulfilled her desire of granting her assess to the family's wealth and she was determined to change the fate of her family with the money she now had assess to. She picked up her phone and began to dial her mother's phone number. She planned to withdraw most of the money in Michael's account into hers. "Hello, Mum. I have good news for you!" Rose said, very excitedly. Her mother could sense happiness and excitement in her voice. "Wow...then, I can't wait to hear it," Rose's mother, Mrs Sally replied. "We'll have to see so that I can tell you the news. When will you be home, Mum?" Rose asked. I'll be back home by evening..." Mrs Sally said."See you, then," Rose said as she hung up on the phone. When she was through at work, she boarded a taxi to go to her parent's house. Not too long, she arrived at Lionway street. S
When Rose got back home that day, she began to imagine the fraudulent actions she would take to get money from the company, if she became the CEO of "The Class of Verity." Michael was back at home and the both of them had just finished eating dinner, so they moved to the balcony to relax. "Hey, Mike. What if I become the CEO of 'The Class of Verity', while you become my subordinate?" Rose asked."Well, that sounds like you aren't in your right mind. That's not possible, you know? It can only be a dream," Michael said. "Well, I was only joking. So I don't expect you to take what I said very seriously," Rose said. She knew she had spoken her mind; this was why she tried to cover up so that Michael does not begin to suspect her."Well, I don't also expect you to think of becoming the CEO since I have given you full assess to my account. I don't see what else you should be looking for," Michael said jokingly.Rose made up her mind to withdraw ninety per cent of whatever she saw in Michae
