Ever since the time Mrs Louis met Mrs Allison at the mall, she had determined to see Jakes through every possible means. Firstly, she needed to be sure if Jakes was in Fitbuck city like Mrs Allison had told her, and if he had truly become rich. She decided to dial Jakes's phone number which Mrs Allison gave to her the other day so that she could get across to him. Within a short while, Jakes answered his call. "Hello, this is Mrs Louis Vera. I'm sure you don't know me, but you'll get to know me soon. I'm your Late Mum's immediate elder sister. I got your number from someone. I'll like to see you, Jakes. I've missed you. The last time I saw you was when you were very young. I'm happy that you are now independent and mature. What about your sister, Stephanie?" Mrs Louis asked."She's Fine, thank you Ma," Jakes replied. He was not sure if the person speaking was truly his mother's sister or some sort of deceiver. His parents died when he was very young so he wasn't mature enough to kno
Rose was now used to using Taylor in achieving her financial goals. She had lied to collect money from him on several occasions. Of recent, she planned with a doctor in Fitbuck city to admit Curtis into his hospital on the pretence that Curtis was sick so that she could use his sickness in getting money from Taylor.The Doctor had been her long-time friend, and when Rose told him about it, he quickly agreed when he heard of the amount that Rose promised to give him. Curtis was admitted into the doctor's hospital one fateful day Thursday evening. When Taylor returned from work and noticed that he didn't see Curtis, he asked his Mum about it. "What about Curtis?" Taylor asked Rose who refused to respond."Honey, where is Curtis?" Taylor asked again, but Rose was looking very dull as she sat on one of the chairs in the living room. "It's so painful. Curtis fell on his chest on a large stone in the walkway, while I bent down to pick up something that fell to the floor. It all happened wh
Michael was determined to bring "The Class of Verity" to nothing. He was able to get some information about the current CEO of the company, Martins Kaitlin, his phone number, and his house address. When he closed from work at Spiral bolt, he dialled a number on his phone. He hid his number so that it wouldn't show to the person he was calling."Hello, am I speaking with Martins Kaitlin, the current CEO of The Class of Verity?" Michael asked. "Yes, you are. How can I be of help to you?" The CEO asked. "Now, listen to me, Martins. I want you to stay away from The Class of Verity. Make sure you stay away!" Michael spoke sternly. "And who are you? I don't even know you. You just call me and think you can threaten me from going to work? You're talking to the wrong person because I'm not a fish," Martins replied."So, you're indirectly telling me that you wouldn't be staying away. Right? Look, if you don't stay away, you'll surely have yourself to blame. Now, get out of the way, you proud
"Curtis has been in the hospital for months now, but his condition does not seem to be improving. But it seems to be getting more complicated. Today the doctor says he's ill with a certain sickness; tomorrow he says another thing is wrong with him. On different occasions when he promised that Curtis would be released, it was never so.I keep on spending so much every passing day, and I just wonder when he will be discharged," Taylor told his wife."I'm not happy either. I'm so unhappy at the moment. Just wonder when all these will pass, because I'm getting tired myself. I'm no longer sure of what to do," Rose responded.Taylor had spent so much on Curtis' hospital bills in the last few weeks and he was getting Taylor tired of the whole stuff. The doctor no longer promised any specific time when Curtis would be discharged from the hospital.Most times, he only promised Taylor that Curtis would be discharged from the hospital anytime soon. Taylor was becoming tired of the whole thing, s
When Mrs Louis saw that she didn't have her way with Jakes, she thought of something else to do. She was desperate about making her sons take part in the Johnsons' wealth. Mrs Louis believed that 'The Legends" and "Pen and Rescue" were the only companies Jakes's father transferred to him, and so, he had so much wealth and affluence because of this. When Mrs Louis returned home that fateful evening after going to visit Jakes, she met her sons in their room listening to some cool music. Her sons, Bob and Dylan, still lived with her. Both of them were very irresponsible and didn't seem to stay on any job for so long. Most times they were sacked from work due to their lackadaisical and unserious attitudes to work. Bob was two years older than Dylan, but most people believed that they were twins because they had a striking facial resemblance."Hey, guys," Mrs Louis said as she walked in. "Mum, how did it go?" Bob asked very inquisitively. She had earlier told both of them where she was
"Why will you insinuate such nonsense? It is evident that my daughter, Stephanie, will do no such thing. She is not evil like your son, Michael, so don't robe her with a garment that doesn't belong to her. I asked her to return as the CEO of The Class of Verity, and she vehemently refused, saying that she has some other assignment at Jakes's's company. I'm sure she didn't need a push as you say. She's happy at the company where she is working. Jakes is rich and his companies are better off than 'The Class of Verity'; I hope you know that. So, she has no reason to want to work at 'The Class of Verity,' talk more of 'killing Martins' as you say," Mr Allison told his wife with a frown on his face.After Martins Kaitlin died, the entire staff and authority of 'The Class of Verity' had no option but to move on. Mr Allison permitted another person to replace Martins as the CEO of "The Class of Verity, to aid the successful running of the company. So, a board of directors meeting was held
Since Jakes's Uncle, Mr Smith Johnson got to know that Michael had been given the companies his father owned, he decided to investigate who transferred the companies to Jakes, so that he could carry out his plan with any information he got. He had collected Jakes's number from Mrs Louis and decided to call him so that they could fix a convenient time when the both of them would meet. "Hello, am I on to Jakes Johnson?" Mr Smith asked as soon as he noticed that Jakes had picked up his phone call. "Yes, you are. How can I help you?" Jakes asked. "I am Smith Jackson, your late father's elder brother. When and where can we see to discuss this?" Mr Smith asked."Hmmm...tomorrow afternoon," Jakes replied. The next day was a Saturday and Jakes spent most of his Saturdays at home. "Alright, then. Please, send me your house address," Mr Smith said. "Alright, I will," Jakes replied as he hung up on the phone. He wondered why his late father's family members were calling to see him in recent t
"Ermmm...." the Nurse tried to say something, but she paused for a while. "I think you should just see the Doctor to find out," she finally said, then she was about to leave the ward. Now, Michael was beginning to be suspicious about what was going on, coupled with the way the Nurse reacted, so he drew her back by her arms. "Come here, Pat. Tell me what's wrong. We're friends. Remember?" Michael told the Nurse. On hearing this, the Nurse came back into the ward and locked the door behind her. Then she stood, staring at Michael for a while. "This information I'm about to tell you is very confidential. If it's found out, it will lead to the arrest of the chief medical director of this hospital, and the hospital will be closed down permanently," the Nurse said. "Really? So tell me; what is it?" Michael asked."The child here isn't sick, but he has been kept here for months now because the Doctor and the mother of the child use the child as an avenue to make some cool money from his fa
