The Unveiling Of The Rejected Son-in-law THE STRUGGLE
"Man! There's no job for you today. No one is going to be at home, because we all are going out for a party right now." Kevin said."Emmm... What about...?" "Are you deaf?! If you're not, then clear out of my way," said Kevin.Jakes reluctantly moved away from the doorway and stood aside looking sober and expectant. Kevin who was already moving towards his car looked back at Jakes still standing beside the doorway. "Oh my goodness! Why are you still standing there?!" He asked, frowning at Jakes. He dipped his hands into his pocket throwing down a note of five dollars on the floor. Jakes ran towards it and embraced the note as if his whole life depended on it. "Thank you, Kevin. Thank you," Jakes said, as he rushed out of Kevin's compound.Kevin shook his head at Jakes. He was not surprised at Jakes's attitude, because he knew how poor Jakes was.Jakes Johnson, 24, a handsome young man was married to Stephanie Allison, 22, a beautiful young lady. Jakes struggled to make ends meet, to

Jakes picked up the call and tried to listen carefully to the voice at the other end. "You fool! Do you think you can avoid my calls? Even if you do, I'll get to you wherever you are, and that will be worse for you." "What?" Jakes was surprised at the sudden outburst, and he was not sure of who was speaking, though the voice sounded familiar."Please whom am I speaking with?" Jakes dared to ask."Will you shut your mouth?! Do you think you could go away with my sister the way you did? You made her marry you, and as if that wasn't enough, you introduced her to a life of suffering." Micheal said. Micheal was Stephanie's elder brother and he had always hated Jakes; he made life miserable for Jakes when they were together. Michael had once sworn to kill Jakes, and maybe he would have if Jakes had not left the house at the time he did. Jakes was dumbfounded at Michael's words, and now he did not know what to say. He wanted to say something, but he retreated."Now, listen to me," Micheal
The Unveiling Of The Rejected Son-in-law THE REVELATION
"Don't be silly men!" The old man continued, and then he faced Jakes. "Jakes, I know you're surprised at why you were brought here. And you wonder who I am." Jakes looked up at him and was eager to hear the next thing the man would say. "You don't know who you are; that was why I sent my men to bring you here. I think it's high time you know your identity," The man continued. "You used to be the young master of a very big and famous family in this City - the family of the Johnsons. Your family was renowned for its wealth and affluence, with several investments in its name, until someone betrayed your family. Within a short while, the whole family was wiped out. Your parents and siblings were killed in a fire, and some of the family's investments were taken over...""What?" Jakes interrupted. He was too shocked to hear this. He looked at the old man in bewilderment, as his eyes turned red. He used to be emotionally strong, but he felt weak this time. The old man was quiet for a while
The Unveiling Of The Rejected Son-in-law THE DEAL
"Yes, Pa Drakes. I must claim my place. Jakes said, then he paused for a while looking very sad. "It's just that...it may be dangerous for me to come back with such a high profile." "No problem son, I understand. This can be our little secret for the time being." Pa Drakes said."However, I have a few more things to tell you," he continued. "The Johnson family owned a total of twenty-five companies within and outside Fitbuck City. Only within Fitbuck City are eight renowned companies. Four are among the top ten leading companies in the city; one of them is the " Class of Verity" which was taken over by the Allisons, while the remaining three are smaller companies which report to the bigger ones. The remaining seventeen companies are in seven other countries of the world. But don't worry, I'll soon hand over a document that shows every detail you need to know. The document contains the names of the different companies, their locations, and their presiding managers.""Wow! This is gr

Stephanie came out of the kitchen with a bottle of cheap wine and two glass cups in her hands. She gave Jakes one of the cups, and held the other cup in her hand, as she poured some wine into each cup. "Let us toast to a new life," Stephanie said as she made her cup kiss Jakes's cup. Then the both of them drank from the wine in their cups."So tell me more about it. How did you get the job this time?" "Darling. I can't even explain it myself. All I know is that the interviewer assessed me, saw that I was qualified, and asked me to start work on Monday morning." Jakes was not ready to break the news about his family's fortune to Stephanie now, though he intended to tell her about it later. Her excitement could lead her into telling her family about it, as she may not find it so easy to keep such news secret. And he needed to tread carefully because of her family, asides from the fact that he also wanted it to be a surprise to her. "Wow! I'm the happiest right now. So what's the jo

"Mr Cameron will be here in a short while. Clean up yourself and put on this dress. You must appear your best to him," Mrs Allison said, as she showed Stephanie the expensive gown she had purchased from the city's mall. When Mrs Allison noticed that Stephanie got up from the floor very sluggishly, she said: "I told you to abort that thing in your womb, but you refused. However, it's not too late to do that. Mr Cameron mustn't find out that you are pregnant; it could discourage him from getting married to you.""Mum, I'll go take my bath, but never you call my baby a thing. He's a human being, you know!" Stephanie said angrily, as she stood up and walked into the bathroom to take her bath. She had finished bathing and was wearing the new dress her Mum had bought when she had a sudden knock on the door.
