Finally, the day came for the unveiling of the monument. Harvey and Nadia decided to keep the ceremony small and intimate, inviting only close friends, associates, and a few trusted colleagues from the Stephenson Company. They wanted this to be a personal moment, a chance to meditate and remember their parents in a meaningful way. As the sun shone over the park, everything looked magical, Harvey stepped forward to give his speech. He looked around at the faces of those he cared about, feeling a deep sense of gratitude for their presence and support. “Thank you all for being here today,” Harvey began, his voice filled with emotion. “This monument is more than just a tribute to our parents. It’s a reminder of the values they instilled in us. the importance of kindness, integrity, and hard work. They taught us to always strive for the best, to be fair and just, and to never forget where we came from.” He paused, taking a deep breath. “I know they’re not here with us today, at least n
For the first time in a long while, Harvey decided to take a day off. He needed it after all the stress he had been under.The Stephenson Company was running smoothly, the employees were now doing their jobs very well, all the recent crisis had been successfully managed. Harvey felt he deserved a break, a chance to relax and recharge. He spent the morning at home, catching up on some reading and enjoying a leisurely breakfast. It felt good to slow down and take a moment to breathe.Around noon, his sister Nadia came back home from a date, carrying a bag filled with lunch from their favorite deli. She was always a breath of fresh air, full of energy and good humor.“Look at you, Mr. CEO, taking a day off,” Nadia teased as she entered the kitchen. “I never thought I’d see this day.”Harvey laughed. “Even CEOs need a break sometimes,” he replied, taking the bag from her and setting it on the counter. “Besides, I thought it would be nice to spend some time with my big sister.”Nadia grinn

It was Harvey’s first wedding anniversary today with his wife, Garcia Anderson. The Andersons had planned on celebrating it in a big way.The hall was decorated with beautiful designs, attractive flowers with alluring colors were hanging in every corner of the area, and the glass round tables were properly set up with beautiful roses around followed by gifts.The beautiful glitters of different colors of lights made the hall more stunning and adorable. The stage where the couples were going to be giving their speech was also designed beautifully and everywhere smelled heavenly with the expensive perfumes of the guests.The Anderson family had invited only the wealthy and influential business associates and family friends for the celebration and they made sure the whole atmosphere smelt of wealth.Everywhere looked magnificent. The Anderson family made sure everything was set and in order, as they awaited the arrival of their guests.It had been a hectic and stressful day for Harvey. H
Harvey went to the kitchen as instructed by his mother-in-law. He sighed deeply and took a disheartened glance at the mountain of dishes waiting for him in the sink. He recalled cleaning up the kitchen before ever he went to dress up, then how on earth were all these dishes there?"Hey, where have you been? I wanted to call you to clean up this mess. Good thing you already know your work too well." Lewis, his younger brother-in-law and most annoying member of the family walked in and taped him on the shoulder disrespectfully. He was an average-looking young man, with tattoos all over his body and his hair barbed stylishly and tinted red."What's the meaning of this Lewis? I remember cleaning up the kitchen. How come you make this kind of mess within a short while?" Harvey was pissed."Oh shut up Harvey, you don't have the right to question me. Besides, my friends came a little bit earlier than the other guests so I needed to entertain them." Despite him being seven years older than L
Harvey borrowed some sheets from the other house help and spread them on a space in the stable and slept for the night. He slept off thinking about his wife Gracia, he didn't get the chance to meet her throughout the party, and he couldn't help but keep thinking about the guy she was holding earlier. He hoped it was not as deep as he thought.Harvey woke up early and decided to go to the kitchen to prepare food for the family.He passed his wife's room since they were not allowed to stay in the same room, he usually goes to her to greet her properly. But unusually, her door was slightly opened. Gracia was the kind of person who loved her privacy and always made sure her door was closed, but surprisingly it wasn't."Strange." Harvey thought, but then decided to ignore it, about to walk away he started hearing some whispers, slightly giggling."What's going on in there?" Harvey asked under his breath, who could be with his wife in her room this early morning?He then pushed the door ope
"A divorce? You want a divorce?" Harvey exclaimed, his voice rising in shock and disbelief.Gracia walked towards him, she met his gaze with a steely look, and all traces of warmth and affection vanished from her eyes. "Yes Harvey, a divorce. I'm sick and tired of being married to a loser like you. I deserve a better life, a better husband, someone I can brag about and be proud of. You're not that man, Harvey. You never have been and you never will be."Harvey shook his head in disappointment, his voice quivering with emotion, "This is how you repay me? After all, I've done for you, for your family? Every morning, I make you breakfast, I clean the house, I do your laundry, I attend to your every request. And for what? So that you can throw me aside like a piece of garbage?"And what about my job? I work every hour God sends, slaving away to bring home what little I earn. And what do I do with that money? I give it to you, every penny because I thought that was what a good husband did.
Harvey directed them to the hospital where Nadia was in. "You can stop here, we've arrived."They all came out of the car, and went in, Harvey went to the receptionist and signed some papers before he went to where his sister was.Nadia lies on the bed, she seems to be asleep. Harvey walked up to her and touched her on the cheek, tears ran down his cheek. Nadia hadn't been able to walk for three years now after that accident. And it was all because of him, she was out there looking for money to clear up his school fees and then it resulted in this. Harvey had promised himself to not stop until he gave her the best treatment in the city, he would make sure she got back on her feet, even if it was the last thing he would do on this earth."Are you okay young Master?" Proj Jason asked, noticing Harvey getting emotional."Yes, I am," Harvey said, wiping the little tears from his eyes. Nadia woke up, she was disturbed by their noise and was surprised at her brother's sudden visit."Harvey?

Harvey felt a sense of calm he hadn’t experienced in years. The Stephenson Company was growing again, stronger than ever after the madness they had faced. Investors kept pouring in, new projects were being launched, and there was a new sense of willingness to work and energy among his employees.After months of indecision and hard work, Harvey could finally breathe a sigh of relief. He had protected his company and guided it back to the top. Now, he felt it was time to turn his attention to something deeply personal. By honoring his parents, who had been his guiding light throughout his journey.That evening, after another successful day at the office, Harvey returned home. The house was warm and welcoming and was filled with the comforting aroma of dinner cooking. Nadia, was in the kitchen preparing their meal, humming softly to herself.Harvey watched her for a moment, feeling a deep sense of gratitude for her presence in his life. She had been his rock, supporting him through every
After dealing with the betrayals that had nearly torn the Stephenson Company apart, Harvey knew that he also had a few other jobs to do. He understood that to truly protect the company and move forward, he needed to focus on two main areas: maintaining data security and rebuilding trust and morale among his employees. The recent events had left the staff feeling shaken and vulnerable, and Harvey figured out that he had to revive their confidence in the company and in each other.The first step Harvey took was to organize a series of internal seminars on data security and confidentiality. He wanted every employee to understand the importance of protecting company information and to learn how to recognize any likely hazards. Harvey brought in top cybersecurity experts to lead these sessions of training, making sure that the training was both thorough and engaging.The first seminar was held in the company’s main conference room, which was filled with employees who were eager to learn an
Harvey understood that now was not the time to rest on his laurels. After successfully dealing with the threats that had nearly destroyed his company, he felt the need to shore up every weakness and vulnerability within the Stephenson Company.The recent and past betrayals had left him very cautious, and he was so eager to protect his business from any future sabotage. There could be no room for error; he would leave nothing to chance.Sitting in his office, Harvey made a list of what he would be looking into. First on the list was conducting a thorough assessment of all employees. He knew that trust was a fragile thing, easily broken and difficult to repair. While he believed most of his employees were loyal, he couldn't afford to take any risks again. Every employee would be investigated, starting with the newest hires, Lily and Peter.Harvey called his secretary, Carla, into his office. She was a sharp, efficient woman who had been with the company for years and was one of the few
Mr. Michael Anderson sat on a battered old chair in the corner of his uncompleted building, staring blankly at the crumbling walls around him. The place felt more like a ruin than a home, it reminded him how far his life had fallen apart.The roof was unfinished, with sections covered only by tarps that flapped in the wind. The concrete floors were cold, and the walls were bare, just exposed brick and mortar. Outside, the sun was shining, but inside, it felt as if the darkness had already settled in.His wife sat sadly across from him on an old mattress, her face was swollen and tired. They hadn’t spoken much in days; there wasn’t much to say anymore. Every conversation seemed to lead back to the same painful topics. their son Lewis’s arrest and imprisonment, their financial situation, and the unbearable weight of guilt and regret that hung over them were overwhelming.Gracia was still in the psychiatric hospital. Her condition had worsened over the past few months. Michael knew they
Meanwhile, Harvey was sitting in his office, calm and composed. He knew the police would come knocking soon. He had expected it. After all, Hugo would try to drag him down with him, just like a drowning man grabs onto anything to stay afloat. But Harvey was also prepared. He had erased every bit of evidence, every communication that could link him to the illegal deal. He had covered his tracks meticulously.When the police arrived at Harvey’s office later that day, he was ready. They asked him to come down to the station for questioning, and he agreed without hesitation. He knew that the best defense was to appear cooperative, and innocent.At the station, they led Harvey into a different interrogation room. The detectives from earlier sat across from him, their expressions were serious but slightly stumped.“Mr. Harvey, thank you for coming in,” the first detective said. “We just have a few questions about your involvement with Hugo Bennett and Lewis Anderson.”“Of course,” Harvey re
Hugo had thought he was in the clear. He had played his part perfectly, setting up Lewis for the illegal ammunition deal, and may have gone free. Everything had gone according to Harvey’s plan, or so he thought. The police had arrested Lewis, and Hugo believed he would walk away with his freedom intact. But Hugo underestimated Harvey. He had no idea that Harvey had set him up from the very beginning.It all came crashing down when the police showed up at Hugo’s door early one morning. He was still in bed, with his eyes barely open, when he heard the loud, insistent knock, he was Startled, so he jumped up and threw on a robe, hurrying to the door with a squeezed brow wondering who it might be. As soon as he opened it, he found himself face-to-face with several stern-looking police officers.“Hugo Bennett?” one of them asked, in a firm and cold voice.“Yes, that’s me,” Hugo replied, as his heart began to pound. “What’s going on?”“You’re under arrest for conspiracy to commit illegal act
