It was a new day at Pen and Rescue Inc. At the Northern part of Fitbuck city, where Pen and Rescue was located, an annual meeting of companies in that area was usually held. It was meant to be a meeting where the CEOs of different companies would meet and rub their minds together. Some CEOs used the opportunity to socialize and get intimated with other CEOs. Stephanie had planned to attend this meeting. It was going to be the first meeting of its kind that she was going to be attending as the CEO of Pen and Rescue.She made sure that she was well-dressed and decent. The meeting had been virtual in the past, but this time around it was meant to be more like a get-together, so it required the presence of the CEOs whose companies were located on that axis. The meeting had been fixed for noon, so Stephanie made sure that she arrived at the meeting before that time.As soon as she arrived at the venue, she noticed that everyone was seated, looking corporate in their outfits. The meeting wa
It was another day at "The Legends." Logan had resumed work, busying himself with the day's work until he remembered his conversation with Michael over the weekend. Logan and Michael had discussed how they could take over the company from Jakes. Michael and Logan now had a plan on how they would gradually achieve their aim without being suspected.Logan hardly called Jakes, except for very official reasons. Most of everything that happened between them was official and was done through emails. This time around he couldn't help but call Jakes. He picked up his phone and dialled Jakes's number. It rang for a while before it was picked up. "Hello, Sir. How are you and the family?" Logan asked. "Everyone is fine. Thank you," Jakes replied. He was known to be very free and accessible to all his subordinates, so this made Logan feel free when relating with him. "I thought it wise to let you know about the recent happening in the company. There's an opening that will earn "The Legends" mill
Early the following day, Mr Allison met with Michael and Michael was forced to sign another part of the oath form. "Thank you for signing," Mr Allison said as he dismissed Michael from his home office. Michael quickly rushed down to see his Dad before going to work. "You're welcome, Sir," Michael responded as he left the office. "Does he think he can control or curb me because of an ordinary paper I signed? He must be joking," Michael thought, as he walked to where he had parked his car. Not too long after Michael left, Mr Allison heard his phone ring, so he walked towards the table on which the phone was lying to pick up the call. "Hello, Sir," a voice spoke from the other end. "Hello. Who am I speaking with, and how may I help you?" Mr Allison asked. "This is Humphrey, the COO of 'The Class of Verity'..." "Wow, Mr Humphrey. How are you doing today? I thought I had your phone number stored on my phone, I'm surprised that this number isn't indicating your name," Mr Allison interrupte
Michael and Rose had returned from the hospital and Michael had resumed at "The Class of Verity." The previous evening, the COO of the company had called Mr Allison and given him feedback about the money which was diverted from the company's account. Mr Allison was in his home office when he heard his phone ring, so he picked it up. "Hello, Sir. This is Humphrey from The Class of Verity." "Hello, Mr Humphrey. How are you today?" Mr Allison asked. "I'm doing great. I called to inform you about the recent development concerning the company's funds at " The Class of Verity," Humphrey said. "What about it? Go on please," Mr Allison responded. "The head of the accounts department involved in the financial mess of the funds being diverted from the company's account has confessed, begging not to be arrested," Humphrey said. "So, what did he say?" Mr Allison asked with so much eagerness. "He said that Mr Michael Allison, the CEO threatened him to divert the company's funds into his account..
"I told you that I had a plan and I think it's a smart one," Logan told Michael over the phone. "Really? Then go ahead, I'll like to hear it," Michael said. "Well, I'll want it to come out as a surprise to you. In the meantime, I'll need a strong man. Do you have one?" Logan asked. "Oh yes, I have not just one. What about it?" Michael asked."I'll need him to perform an assignment on Jakes," Logan revealed. "Wow! That's what I have always wanted to hear. You're on point man. I'll send you the phone number of one of them right away," Michael promised. "Alright then. I'll be expecting it." Logan said as he hung up the phone. Within a few minutes, Logan had a message notification on his phone, so he checked it. "Wow, he has sent the phone number," Logan said to himself, as he started to dial the number. "Hello, am I speaking with Liam?" Logan asked. "Yes, you are. How may I help you?" A male with a baritone voice responded? "I'll need you to do an assignment for me. Mr Michael Allison g
Rose had returned home with her son a few weeks ago, but Mr and Mrs Allison hadn't visited or called her after they had paid a visit to the hospital. So she wondered what could be wrong. "Why am I hated so much by the Allison family? I had always believed that they would love me if I got pregnant for Michael, but the reverse seems to be the case," Rose thought to herself. She thought of what to do to win the love of her in-laws, but she wasn't sure of what to do.Michael had returned home after a long day at work and Rose had prepared a sumptuous meal for him. As soon as Michael walked into the sitting room, he dragged himself to sit on one of the sofas in the sitting room while one of the maids helped in taking his bag to his room. "How was work today?" Rose asked her husband. "Very hectic. I'm so tired," Michael responded. "Oh, sorry. Your food is served. You need to eat something," Rose said, trying to persuade her husband. "Thank you," Michael responded, as he moved over to the di
Stephanie and Jakes had been so apprehensive since the time Gerald was taken from them. They felt reluctant to involve the police because of the consistent threats they had received. They had received several text messages telling them that they were being monitored and that Gerald was going to be killed if they tried to involve the police. Stephanie and Jakes were sitting in their sitting room this fateful evening following the incident, thinking of what would happen next, but suddenly, they heard some sounds at their doorstep. One of the servants tried to check who was at the door, but just before he could get there, the door was flung open. Jakes and Stephanie were ridden by fear, as they remembered what happened the last time.Within the twinkle of an eye, they saw two men wearing black outfits with their faces masked as one of them held Gerald in his hands. Jakes and Stephanie could tell that they were the same men who visited them the last time. Gerald was looking unkempt with t
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
