"I and my team will be coming over to The Class of Verity tomorrow." Mr Gordon informed Michael over the phone. "Alright, Sir. We'll be looking forward to your visit." Michael replied.Since Michael showed his interest in marrying Dorothy, Mr Gordon had developed so much interest in him. He believed that The Class of Verity was a big company that his company in Fitbuck city could partner with on an upcoming project.It was 6pm when Mr Gordon called Michael, but Michael found it difficult to sleep until late into the night. He kept thinking about Mr Gordon's proposed visit. He was afraid that Mr Gordon would find out about the real situation of things, but he was still hopeful. Michael was tempted to tell his Dad about what Mr Gordon told him, but he didn't see it as a good idea. "At this stage, I believe Mr Gordon likes me. And even if he finds out that The Class of Verity isn't what he believes it is, or anything else, he wouldn't stop me from marrying his daughter." Michael thought
"Hello, Mr Jakes. Your wife, Stephanie will be delivered of her baby anytime from now. So you'll need to come along with her things to the hospital," Dr Dave said. While Stephanie was being taken to the theatre to deliver her baby, Dr Dave decided to call Jakes."Just like that? But her time isn't due yet," Jakes told the Doctor. "Yes, her life and that of the baby will be at risk, if nothing is done quickly." Dr Dave explained."Alright, Doc. I'll be there anytime soon," Jakes replied. Within a short time, Jakes arrived at Olives hospital. By the time he arrived, Stephanie had already delivered her baby. Jakes walked into the hospital and was directed to Dr Dave's office. "Good day, Doc." Jakes greeted."Good day, Mr Jakes. Congratulations. Your wife has delivered a bouncing baby boy." Dr Dave announced. "Wow! That's great. I'm so excited!" Jakes exclaimed."So, where's the baby, Doc? I can't wait to see him." "He's still in the incubator. You know it was a premature birth." Dr Dave
Michael was now very desperate to find Stephanie so that he could assume the position of the CEO of The Class of Verity once again. He remembered how Mr Allison once told him and his Mum of how he saw Stephanie in Olive hospital, where Dr Dave worked.He thought of seeing Dr Dave, to see if he could get Stephanie's location through her data at his hospital. After closing from work on Tuesday, he drove down to Olive hospital to see Dr Dave. After waiting in the hospital's reception for a while, he was called in by the receptionist. "Mr...Michael, you can now go in." Michael had introduced himself earlier to the receptionist as 'Michael Allison.' "Good Day, Doctor," Micheal greeted, as he walked into Dr Dave's office. "Good day, emmm...Mr Michael Allison," Dr Dave called him by the name the receptionist mentioned to him. He knew Stephanie and Mr Allison so well because they had visited his hospital on different occasions, compared to Michael and Mrs Allison. Over the years, Michael had
"Hello. Am I on to Stephanie Johnson?" Michael asked over the phone. Dr Dave had given him Stephanie's phone contact, so he decided to put a call through. "Yes. Please who am I speaking with?" Stephanie asked in surprise. She wondered who called her by her full name. "Hey, Stephanie. It's Michael your brother. Please, don't hang up the phone on me. I know I have wronged you..." Michael pleaded softly. "Really? You call yourself my brother? Nonsense!" Stephanie said as she hung up the phone angrily. She was still angry at Michael and Mrs Allison because of what they did to her. Now, she was surprised at why Michael was calling her, or what information he wanted to divulge to her this time around. Michael felt pained that he wasn't able to communicate with Stephanie, but he refused to be discouraged. "I'm not going to give up in trying to get across to her; I must find her," Michael told himself. He thought of strategies he could use in getting across to Stephanie; then he remembered J
It was another work day, and Jakes was at work. He had been so busy and engrossed with the day's work. It was almost closing time at 'The Legends," when Jakes remembered what his wife asked him to do. Since, the day she talked to him about her need for a nanny, she always fantasized about it - where she would be doing during the period, and what part-time she could get. Since Jakes woke up very early that morning, Stephanie had been reminding him at intervals not to forget what they discussed the previous day. She was so anxious about her freedom."Oh, I have to speak to Karen about her friend's nanny," Jakes told himself. He quickly picked up the phone on his table and dialled a number. "Hi, Karen. Please can I see you quickly in my office, before you leave for home?" Jakes asked. "That's fine," the voice on the other end responded.After a short while, someone knocked on Jakes's door. "Come in, please." Jakes said, then the door was pushed open. "Good day, Sir." Karen greeted. "Good
"Hello, Dr Dave. How has work been today?" Michael asked. "Fine, thank you." Dr Dave responded. "Since you gave me Stephanie Johnson's phone contact, I have still been unable to reach her. I don't understand why her phone number hasn't been going through for a while." Michael said."Is that so...?" asked Dr Dave. "Yes, Doc. I'm so bothered because its been a while ever since I heard from her or saw her. The same with her husband, Jakes." Michael said, with a shaky voice. "Oh, I'm so sorry about that Mr Michael. I don't have any other contact information asides from the one I gave you the last time we met..." Dr Dave said."Oh..." Michael responded. "However, I'll advise you to keep trying her number. Who knows when it would go through." Dr Dave responded. He had had no reason to call Stephanie's number in recent times, so he couldn't tell if her number was going through or not."Okay, Doctor. But I'll like you to do me a favour." Michael said. "What is it?" Dr Dave asked anxiously. "I
It was Friday evening. Michael sat in his sitting room and began to wonder why Stephanie got herself a nanny. "How will they cope with paying a nanny's salary?" Michael thought to himself. He knew how poor Jakes was, and how he and Stephanie struggled to make ends meet. "Or could it be a different couple who just bore the same name as them?" Michael thought. He wondered how a couple would bear the exact name and surname with them. "No, it can't be. They must be the ones." Jakes thought. After careful thinking, Michael concluded that Stephanie hired a nanny because she wanted to work, so she needed someone who could monitor the baby very closely. He remembered how Stephanie talked about children when they were younger and still together. She never believed in daycares for very young children; she believed every child deserved to be given the best care and attention."Maybe, that's what made her choose such an expensive option. Jakes is probably yet to find a job, and they'll surely nee
It was late on Tuesday evening, and Ma Elizabeth was back at home from the Johnsons' place to her house when she heard her phone ring. It was an unknown number, so she wasn't sure who it was. However, she picked up the call. "Hello, Ma Elizabeth," said the voice on the other end. She wondered who it was that called her by her name. So she believed that it was someone familiar. "Good evening. Who am I speaking with, please?" Ma Elizabeth asked."You'll soon get to know. I just called to ask you about Stephanie Johnson's address once again. I know you so well, and your refusal to send me the address will lead to the death of your only child, Lawrence, his wife, and children..." The voice said sternly."What?! You must be kidding me right? Why will you want to kill my child and his family, because you want me to release something very private about my client...?" Ma Elizabeth asked in shock. "Don't ask me any silly questions. All I want from you is the house address of the Johnsons. I g
