Breakfast was ready, it was a wonderful meal of rice and salad. Claire brought her grandfather’s food in a richly adorned tray.
“Here you go sir,” she said, placing the tray on the side table in front of him. His face seemed to change and his mood brightened once he noticed the food and perceived the aroma.He was obviously famished. One bite and one taste confirmed Claire’s expertise in cooking.“Hmhmh, wow you’re such a wonderful cook my child,” Lenon said to his granddaughter, a wide smile and grin on his face.“Thank you sir, I prepared it specially to make you happy and I’m really glad you like it.” Claire said to him in a rather loving and caring tone and it really touched the old man’s heart.Old Lenon bent over and pecked his daughter on the cheek. “God bless you my child, your days are blessed and you shall find favor in the presence of your fellow men.” He placed his hands on his daughter’s palm and blessed her.TLeonard paused for a moment and sighed, “it’s fine my dear, I never talked about them though, so it’s not your fault.” He added. Emily looked at him with so much concern, but Leonard didn’t seem to want to talk about his parents, and Emily seemed really concerned, she sensed the unease and discomfort he felt and it really bothered him. “When we get back home, I’ll like us to talk about something privately.” Emily said to her lover and she held his hands and squeezed it tightly. Leonard drove on and checked the google map on his screen, they were almost at Dovely palace hotels. ********* “I want him alive, I want him here in at least three days time, and I mean it, I’m really serious.” Stephanie instructed Graham, a notorious gang leader who has a rather gentle face, his face was too gentle, meek and innocent for a gangster, to talk more of a leader. Graham nodded at Stephanie, then without saying a word and he brought out h
The two of them turned around to see Stephanie, she had just returned from her outing, looking all tired and worn out, but she still managed to wear an imposing smile. Lenon patted Claire on the back and grabbed the car keys from the table, he walked out of the house and to the car park, completely ignoring Stephanie’s presence. Claire sat on the couch and managed to welcome her sister rather nonchalantly. “Welcome,” she said and picked up the remote control to turn on the television. Stephanie stood there, looking at the whole scene unfold before her, she was just dazed and speechless. “Food, that’s the only thing I will consider important right now,” she said to Claire who had now found an interesting channel and was heavily engrossed in the TV. “There’s some rice in the pot, if you’re hungry, just warm it up and eat.” Claire said to her sister briefly and continued watching her TV immediately. Stephanie didn’t
Alex was very frustrated at Stephanie’s actions and he was going to show her he was. He vowed to show her the consequences of betraying him and doing things behind his back with the intention of fooling him and lying to him. He called Mark, his top gang member and told him to be at his residence as quickly as possible. “Alex, you know I’m kind of in a sexy situation right now so I’ll see you later,” Mark said to him on the phone as he asked Mark to be available at his residence as quickly as possible. “Hey, it’s important, very important. Just quit that crap you’re doing and get over here, real quick.” Alex replied on the phone. There was a grumble from Mark on the other side but he agreed anyway. “It better be worth it Alex!” He yelled and cut the call. He was probably with a girl and she was probably a bitch and he was enjoying an intimate moment with her. That didn’t matter to Alex, he had a more important mission he wanted them t
"How do you feel now?" One of his men walked up to him and asked. He glared at him in response as he tried to hide his pain. A nurse walked up to him with medicine to be taken Luke aspirin, in a little tray. "So these are your medications, and you are to take them daily after a meal, at noon and after dinner. Each one of them has their respective function. Some are for the pain while some, to help your metabolism and boost your immune system. Quick heal for the leg, I'm sure you want that and you must be in a lot of pain. I know you don't have to tell me that," she said to him nonstop before handing him the medication one after the other. "So this should be taken three times daily. This one…" pointing to each of them, about four to five packed tablets, as she explained. "Please take your drugs to ensure speedy recovery and for the meantime you can't move around freely. You are limited to this wheel chair you are seated on or your crunches
"Why the fuck do I have reporters in front of my house?" Lenon yelled as he walked around the house. He just couldn't fathom why he has to wake up to the roaring sounds of reporters and cameramen parading themselves in front of his house. "Grandpa, please can you calm down! I have called the cops and they should be here any minute from now," Claire pleaded, trying to calm her grandfather down. She said with tension in front of her grandfather, she can't even relax well. "What do you mean? I should be calm, what the fuck does that even mean? There are imbeciles right in front of my house, trying and looking for even means to get into the house and you expect me to be calm? No, don't tell me that!" He yelled, still walking around, with his hands crossed behind me. "Then should I check what is going on?" Claire asked him. "No dear, that's kind of dangerous for you! You still little and those people, those people outside are roaring lions looking
He sat down and stood up almost immediately. "I don't know the full details but…" the guard was saying. "Well, I think you have an issue to solve, Mr Lenon!" Stephanie said with a smirk before turning to leave. "But I happened to hear the name of the guy who was shot. He is Graham, a…" he continued like Stephanie hasn't just interrupted him. "What?" She yelled from the stairs where she stood and turned sharply. "What do you mean by that?" She asked as she ran to him and held him by the collar. "What do you mean by that?" She asked again, shaking him violently. "I swear I don't know anything, I just heard it and I came to inform Mr Lenon!" He cried. "Stephanie, what have you done? Do you by chance know this guy who was shot? At. My. Gate?" He asked with a stern voice. "And what makes you think I am involved? Like seriously?" She asked, feigning annoyance. "Oh please spare me that! Eve
"Are you leaving already?" Peterson asked Leonard as he came out of the kitchen, he already had his luggage dropped in his car. "Yes, Peterson! I have a lot of pending work left for me to handle and there aren't easy work," he said to him. "Oh! I am sorry about that but you should have said something about it. I would have sent help that would help you out," he said with concern. "No, it's nothing to be worried about! Totally!" He said to Peterson. "I have to! I got you worried with my health and should do the same for you! Thanks so much for everything, Leonard! You don't know how excited I am that I found help at last. It wasn't easy to be kept in one place, you and Emily have done something pleasant for me," he said with gratitude. "You are so welcome. I need to leave now," Leonard said to him. "But why are you living alone? Does Emily know? Aren't both of you going to wherever you are going to?" He asked, looking confus
She stomped into the littlest room in the house and by far that room can contain fifty people sitting. "Grandpa!" Emily yelled as she opened the door like a brat. "Who is that?" Peterson asked, looking up from what he doing. "Oh Emily!" He simply uttered before turning back to what needs his attention. Emily stood at the door with her arms crossed across her bosom. "What do you want Emily?" He asked her after a while especting that she would have said something since she was the one who came to him. "What do I want? Why was I abandoned this morning? Everyone just left me as if I wasn't existing or in the same house with you all," she lamented. "What do you mean? You were asleep when everyone started their day. Would you have prefered to be woken up?" He asked her. She rolled her eyes as she realized that he had a point but she wasn't satisfied. "And where the hell is Leonard? I can't find him anywhere,"
