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

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.

    "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.

    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."

    As soon as Stephanie and Jakes arrived at Glow hospital, they went to see the doctor in his office. "Good afternoon Doctor. You called for me. I am Stephanie Johnson," Stephanie tried to introduce herself. "Oh, good. Your father has been admitted to this hospital for the past two days, but he needs blood, and we need one that is compatible with his," the Doctor told Stephanie.On hearing this, Stephanie and Jakes looked at themselves in disbelief. They were shocked that the person they saw some weeks ago who was responsible for Stephanie's arrest by the police was sick and in need of blood. "But, can we see him, Doc?" Jakes asked. "Sure. Please come along with me," the Doctor said as the both of them followed him to the ward where Mr Allison was. "That's him," the Doctor said pointing at Mr Allison's bed, then Stephanie and Jakes moved close to his bed."He's looking so frail," Stephanie remarked as the both of them looked at him in pity. He looked very frail and sickly. Mr Allis

    Now, it was glaring to Mr Smith that there was nothing he could do to get anything more from Jakes. He had made all attempts to make sure that he and his family were given more of his brother's companies but it seemed like an impossible feat to achieve. For some months now, he had been sending a good part of the company's revenue to the account number Todd gave to him, out of fear. "I'm no longer going to be involved in this whole thing. I won't be sending any money into that account you gave to me since Pen and Rescue is all we can get from Jakes," Mr Smith told his son. "No, Dad. I think that's risky. What if they come after us when they notice that you've stopped sending money to that account?" Todd asked his father. "Then, we'll face it! We can no longer continue to act like cowards!" Mr Smith said with seriousness in his voice."Dad!" "I'll talk to you later, Todd," Mr Smith said as he hung up on the phone. Todd knew there was nothing he could do to convince his father now.

    Mrs Allison had told Paul Felix about Stephanie's whereabouts when all efforts to shift Paul's focus off Stephanie seemed to prove abortive. Right in Paul's house, Mrs Allison made some calls to find out where Stephanie and Jakes lived. She remembered that there was a chauffeur who drove Mr Allison to Jakes's house the other day, so she called him to find out about the address. One Saturday morning, Paul tried to dial the number Mrs Allison had given him. A day before, he had asked for Stephanie's phone number from her, and she had given it to him. Not too long after dialling the number, the call was picked up. "Hello, Dear," Paul said as soon as he noticed that Stephanie had picked up her call. "Dear?" Stephanie asked herself, wondering who was speaking to her on a familiar note, and she tried to listen more to the voice to see if it was a familiar one. "Hello," Stephanie answered coldly."This is Paul Felix speaking with you. I only called to find out if you're at home at the

    A thorough investigation had been ongoing to discover those behind the destruction of Todd's warehouse. The police had tried to find out the person(s) who owned the account number given to Todd and they were now able to trace the ownership of the account to Bob and Dylan Louis. This led to Bob and Dylan's arrest; then the case was taken to the court. "I could never have believed that those idiots are the ones behind the threats and destruction of the warehouse." Mr Smith told Todd. "It's so surprising that they could go that length just because they were not given what they wanted. Those two must surely rot in jail," Todd spoke angrily still yet to get over the incident of the destroyed warehouse. The case was later taken to court and Bob and Dylan were to appear in court the following week for the final judgment. When Mrs Louis discovered that her two sons were to appear in court, she was so devastated and confused. All this while she had tried to implore Mr Smith to nullify the c

    "And who is the daughter you are talking about? Who is your daughter?" Stephanie asked Paul. "Stephanie, you are the one I'm talking about. I know you may not believe me or even understand, but I want you to know that I am your real father. I..." "Enough! This is enough! How can you be my real father? I know who is my father and mother," Stephanie interrupted Paul in anger. She wondered why a total stranger would come into her house and claim to be her father."I know you may not understand this, Stephanie. But I can make you understand. Twenty-four years ago, my wife died not long after giving birth to you, and since Mrs Allison was my friend, I begged her to take up the responsibility of taking care of you. That's the reason why you've been with her all this while," Paul tried to explain."I don't believe you! I don't! My mother has never told me that I'm not her real daughter," Stephanie said.

It was important to her that her parents accepted their relationship, and their approval meant everything."Michael, I don't understand," Nora said softly, her voice tinged with disappointment. "My parents want to meet you. They want to get to know the man I love. Why are you hesitating?"Michael shifted uncomfortably in his seat, his gaze avoiding Nora's eyes.

    SOMETHING NEW

    As the night grew darker and silence settled over the house, Michael found himself restlessly pacing in his room. He couldn't shake off the nagging feeling that something was amiss. The house was eerily quiet, save for the occasional creaks and whispers carried by the wind outside. Nora had packed out of the house a day before after showing her disinterest in the wedding. Justin was heartbroken and was feeling sad about Nora's decision until he forced himself to sleep.Suddenly, amidst the stillness, a muffled sound caught Michael's attention.
