Mr Allison had to fill in the position of CEO at "The Class of Verity" since nobody was willing to take up that position. It had spread like wildfire around Fitbuck city that all the previous CEOs of 'The Class of Verity' were attacked by assassins, except for Mr Allison's children and the previous CEO whose child was kidnapped. Because of this, some people believed that Mr Allison and his wife had a hand in the death of the CEOs who died. "Why were his children not attacked while they held the position? That man and his wife must be suspects," some people said. People's gossip was getting to Mr and Mrs Allison, and to them, it was a bitter pill to swallow; so Mrs Allison told her husband one Thursday afternoon. "I think we should just report Stephanie to the police since she's a primary suspect in Marvin's death," Mrs Allison said. "How do you mean? There's no evidence to show that it was Stephanie who killed Marvin. And even if we say that she was the one who killed Marvin, wh
Todd went to visit his father during the weekend."Dad, I just think you should send some of the company's revenue to that account to avoid further harassment," Todd told his Dad. "No, Todd. I do not agree with you. I'm sure the police will fish out whoever is behind this. So there's no cause for alarm," Mr Smith said. "I understand, Dad. But up till now, the culprits are yet to be found. That's the more reason why I think we should tread carefully," Todd advised.On hearing this, Mr Smith sighed and there was a brief moment of silence between the two before he spoke up. "Are you trying to say that I should send part of the company's revenue to some stranger I do not know of?" Mr Smith asked, looking at his son in bewilderment. "Yes, Dad. Yes, if sending it will avoid regrets..." "Don't be a coward, son," Mr Smith interrupted. "I'm not a coward, Dad! I'm only doing this for my safety and...yours too.What if they attack you, just because you refused to yield to their demands?" Tod
Now, Michael hated Logan because he felt that he was more like an enemy now, than a friend. So he decided to set a trap for him. He found out some details about Logan's girlfriend, so he planned to use them against him. It was around 11 p.m on a Thursday night when Logan received a call on his phone. "Hello, dear. I'm stranded right now, and I need you to come and pick me up at Kaden junction. I've waited here for a while without being able to get a taxi," the female voice said. Michael had hired a young lady to act like Logan's girlfriend. He had been able to get some voice records of Logan's girlfriend which the young lady was able to imitate. He found out that Logan's girlfriend kept late nights at clubs most of the time, and always called Logan to come and pick her up, if she had no one to drop her at her house."But why do you like to disturb me at odd times, Joyce? How many times have I warned you not to bother calling me, anytime you stay out this late? Joyce, I'm not your
"I'm not happy about the death of those two men. They were valuable assets to this company, so the news of their death affected me a great deal," Mr Allison told his manager friend, Mr Leonard, who had come to visit him at his office. Mr Leonard was the manager of a neighbouring company to "The Class of Verity." He visited "The Class of Verity" to drop an invitation letter for the staff to attend a conference he organised; so he decided to take the opportunity to see Mr Allison at his office. "It's so unfortunate. However, I want you to be strong at this time, and you need to be positive-minded because of the company. It's only a matter of time, applications will soon be rolling in for the position of the CEO," Mr Leonard assured. "Thanks, friend. Just recently, I haven't been able to take my mind off Michael. If he were a responsible son, he would be where I am at the moment; but anytime, I put him in this position..." "grinnn.....nnn..." a phone began to ring interrupting their
Mr Smith thought of what he could do to make sure that more companies were transferred to the Johnson family, so he decided to see Jakes, to reiterate his idea to him. He picked up his phone and called Jakes. After all, Jakes was his nephew, so he believed that he could usurp his authority over him. "Hello, Jakes. Will you be free this weekend? Because I'll like to come over to your place," Mr Smith said. "Hmmm...okay, I'll be at home," Jakes replied coldly as Mr Smith hung up on the phone.When it was the weekend, Mr Smith went to visit Jakes at his house. Jakes was prepared to receive him and he could guess the reason why Mr Smith visited. One of Jakes's servants ushered Mr Smith into the house while Jakes came downstairs to meet him. "You're welcome, Mr Smith. Please have your seat," Jakes said as he sat down. He knew Mr Smith had probably come for a fight since he threatened him over the phone; however, he was prepared for him. "Jakes, I came here to reiterate what I have alre
Logan had been in the hospital for months. There were complications from the injury he sustained the day he was beaten by Michael's thugs, so he needed to spend more time at the hospital.The board had decided to elect a new CEO for "The Class of Verity", and Michael was aware of it.He believed that it was an opportunity for him to finally become the CEO of 'The Legends' which he had always looked forward to. Jakes was not a member of the board of trustees of the company, since he was an overseer of several companies and he had other responsibilities. That was the more reason why he put a lot into Logan's care. Logan acted both as the overseer and the CEO of "The Legends."Applications were flowing in both within and outside the company for the position of CEO, and Michael was amongst those who applied. However, he wasn't selected in the long run. The new CEO who was finally considered had more qualifications and experience than the others.When Michael discovered this, he was ver
"Boss, the fool is dead," Michael's thug called to break the news. He had successfully killed the young CEO who had just been employed to work at "The Legends," five days ago. "Good! Good news!!" Michael said as he hung up on the phone. He was happy that the seat of the CEO at "The Legends" was vacant again. He was determined to do everything within his power this time to make sure that he was made the CEO. When he got to work the next morning, he noticed that the news of the CEO's death had spread all around the company like wildfire. "What killed him?" He had one of the staff ask another staff as he walked down the corridor. "No one is sure of what killed him at the moment until an autopsy is done. But he was found dead on his bed this morning and the room was locked inside. Some say that he died in his sleep, while some others say he was killed at night by someone very close to him," the other staff said. "Hmmm...that's very unfortunate. I hope the truth will be found out soo
Mrs Allison had been away from home since the time she discovered that her husband was being threatened by text messages. "Paul, I'm here again. But why have you been threatening my husband with those dangerous text messages?" Mrs Allison asked her lover, Paul Felix. Paul had been Mrs Allison's lover ever before she got married to Mr Allison. Mrs Allison would have married Paul if he was rich enough to take care of her, but he was not."What text messages are you talking about? I didn't send any text messages to your husband," Paul said. Mrs Allison had believed that it was Paul who sent text messages to her husband because she refused to heed his request of coming over to his place for the past month. Mrs Allison usually spent time with him anytime her husband travelled on his frequent business trips, and recently, Mr Allison had not been able to travel on his trips because of the recent happenings at "The Class of Verity." "He has been receiving some threatening text messages re
