After a series of tests and treatments with the doctor trying all he could to restore Mrs.Lugard back and after she regained consciousness, it was finally time to go home."Miss Lugard, I'm afraid without the cure, there's a high probability that your mother might collapse again and the consequences would be deadly," The head doctor reminded Helen while they were getting set to be discharged."Thank you doctor, but is there no drug or injection that she can be taking that could sustain her or better still avoid the attack," Helen asked with curiosity and clear hope. She was scared of what the future might hold and the uncertain possibilities."I'm sorry Miss Lugard, there's no treatment that can help your mother. I'll suggest you search for the cure as soon as possible. I'm so sorry," The head doctor responded and left them thereafter.Helen couldn't respond or even voice out any words, she was stuck to her spot with no words to say or act. Searching for the cure or even knowing what
Helen walked to Tony's company with fear clutched to her heart, she was breaking the warning Tony gave to her but the desperation to save her family weighed out all the uneasiness, and a newfound hope railed within her.She hurried to the gate and thankfully the security men were there, she quickly took to her heels and rushed to Tony's office, her feet stomping heavily on the tiled floor, while she scanned the hallway for any possible threat. Finally standing at Tony's door, Helen felt overwhelmed, her thoughts swirling as to whether she should go in or not, and after sighing for a while she gently opened the door and walked in."Good day Tony," Helen muttered with a steady and firm voice, her eyes radiating with emotions that were different from what she was feeling. She knew she needed to be strong to mask the fear that struggled within her."What are you doing here Helen?" Tony said with anger, his fury visible as he locked eyes with her."Please Tony," Helen started with a shake
"The Luti-V disease," Helen answered, and Tony and Collins both looked in awe and shock.Everything was beginning to make sense to Tony, his heart weighed in anger. Though he knew Mrs. Lugard was wicked and despicable, being infected with the Luti-V disease was much more a deep consequence than anyone could bear and he didn't wish such for Helen and her mother."What's it, Tony?" Helen questioned instantly, her eyes piqued in alert as she locked eyes with him."Do you know about the disease? Can you save my mother?" Helen asked in a rush, her lips shaking as she spoke, it was clear evidence that the recent happening had left her defenseless and devastated."Calm down Helen, I know you're shocked by what your mother is going through and devastated as well but don't worry I believe Tony here will help you," Collins stated with confidence and conviction dripping from his voice. He knew the situation was complex at present but he was sure that Tony would help her in any way possible, thou
The sound from Tony's phone startled their countenance and Tony lazily picked up the phone without caring who was on the other end."Hello," Tony said with his usual deep voice."Tony Eduardo," A deep voice answered with an unusual force."And you're?" Tony asked with a sense of curiosity racing out of his mouth."I have your Grandmother," The strange voice uttered again and Tony was immediately on alert, the air on his back stood up in curiosity and fear. What the hell was going on was all he could think about."What," Tony screamed out, his teeth gritted and shoulders clenched together. He instantly pressed the loudspeaker button and placed the phone on his desk so Collins could hear also."I have your Grandmother and you have seventy-two hours to carry out my order or else you'll lose her," The stranger answered again, his tone was nonchalant and a powerful aura resonated from him.Collins's eyebrows were posed in total shock as his eyes widened. He didn't know how to make sense of
"What," Henry screamed out in anger,his eyes burning in flames and his hands gritted in a fist as he threw a loud thud on his desk,his lips curved in a menace.Henry's guards bowed their heads in submission and clear fear,afraid of being victims of Henry's anger and visible wrath which was glaring at the atmosphere. They couldn't say a word,their failure like a heavy slap that stink to their faces. They were short of the right words to defend their actions or even the words to query his fury.Their whole body was visibly shaking , nobody had the courage to speak up. "Why are you all standing like morons, who are reporting to me, or have you suddenly become deaf and dumb," Henry shouted,he was so disappointed.How could they fail on a task so simply. He looked at all of them from head to toe, his eyes brimming like fire and brimstone. "Talk!!!," Henry shouted The leader of the group stepped forward. "We're so sorry boss, it happened so suddenly that we were caught off guard," the
The instant they left,Henry's phone rang and he quickly picked up,displeased at the caller."Who's this?" He uttered in clear irritation dripping from his tone."Henry Storm," The deep voice uttered in pure amusement and that tone infuriated Henry whose anger went away."who the fuck are you?" Henry asked in fury,obviously furious by the audacity of the caller and the nerve to put a call across him."You're such a child in the game,while don't you leave it for the experienced like us," The deep voice said again,his chuckles radiating from the call."And you are?" Henry asked but the call abruptly ended.Henry disengaged the phone from his ears,his eyes gulped open in unbelief at the words he had just heard,he couldn't believe whoever was on the line had the nerve to hang up the phone on him.He quickly tried to dial the number again but it was a dead end as the line wasn't existing and seemed not to be registered. Whoever was on the other end,was careful and his strings were tied as w
Henry was still fuming in his office,upset at the blank trace he was getting and the darkness that threatened to swallow him. He was defenseless to his unknown enemy and the next strike was oblivious to him. He couldn't help thinking what was the mistake he had made and who was solely after him.He knew his father was going to be upset and disappointed at him. His father Williams Storm had made it a point of duty to always remind him how tactful and brutal he needed to be to swoop out his enemies and for one his father hasn't had anything good to say about him. Always throwing blame at him and taking note of every one of his little faults. He was sure this wasn't going to be an exception."Oh my God,why didn't I realize sooner?" Henry asked himself as reality dawned on him and the situation became clear to him. His father was indeed responsible for the recent happenings to him. His father Williams Storm had always threatened to do things better incase Henry fails and this was no exce
There was a heavy palpable tension that hung in the air as everyone wasn't saying a word. The air was stiff and there was a deafening silence that radiated the room.Tony had called for an impromptu meeting and they all ran to his home,worry and concerns filled their hearts. Hannah was fearful and at the same time worried.she was bothered ever since she got the call from Tony,her mind hasn't rested."Thank you all for coming at such short notice. There's an issue," Tony muttered as his eyes locked eyes from one person to another. He was happy they were here and at the same time,the distress and frustration within him was overbearing and he was tired."What's going on Tony? I heard the urgency from your voice and knew things were serious," Mariam uttered in clear concerns. The situation happening with Tony was huge and her mind hadn't been at rest ever since,worrying about what the future held and Grandma Nicole's safety.Tony didn't answer her immediately,he let loose a deep breath be
