" Oh? Grandfather!' Sarah said and looked at her husband before she smiled a little. What was this old man doing here and how did they not know that someone was out there? How much had this man heard? She thought while the man cleared his throat as he walked deeper into the room while a guard stood at the entrance. " I asked who is getting married? You really think that I don't deserve to know that?" he asked again as he looked at his granddaughter who was shedding so much tears. " Should we tell father?" Her husband asked while she shook her head. That man despised them and they would have the money. How on earth could he then tell his father?" No! That man doesn't deserve to know anything!' She whispered" But he's got a lot of connections! He can also make it easier for us. What do you think?'" What I think? I think that he should not know! He's worthless after all!' She said, wondering how her husband suddenly softened his heart, knowing how much he hated his father. " Fath
"Idiot! You destroyed our plans;" Sarah said angrily and kept on twisting her ears while Ashley stared into space. He could not believe that his brilliant idea was going to a waste. That meant that he needed to restrategize. " Darling, how about we sit down and talk about this?" He said again." What's there to talk about? After this girl has destroyed all our plans to become wealthy?" " How about how I call him and tell him I need to see him? " Releasing her ear, she walked towards her husband." Didn't you tell me how you had treated him back then? Do you think that he would give you a listening ear? And besides, I don't think he would want to come around if not because of that patient?"" We could just give it a trial. At least, that way, we can outsmart grandfather who thinks about money every time and would not give us a dime!" He said again while she nodded." So, what do you think will happen now?"" I would like to prepare a contract before hand. There will be a part in th
" Good morning, sir" Ashley said as soon as he caught sight of Jack who had entered the cafe, as usual, dressed so cheaply that it seemed so hard to recognise him. " Good morning, you sounded so urgent last night. I hope everything is fine?" He asked. " Sir, I would like to ask for a financial assistance. I understand that I have offended you in the past with the way I have treated you but can you please give me a chance? My business is at the verge of crashing and if it crashes, there's nothing I and my family will fall back into and.."" Are you not a doctor? What business are you talking about?"" Oh?" He said and laughed, " I own the hospital!" He said and smiled while Jack nodded, suddenly remembering how they used to treat him back then. Instantly, he felt so angry but decided to keep his calm. " That's good. So, you mean to tell me that the hospital is going bankrupt?"" Please sir, I know that you are a good investor. If you decide to invest in my business, knowing the fact
What do you take me for? An idiot?" Jack asked him coldly while he gritted his teeth, not believing that he would seem that intelligent. " I'm sorry, sir. I was only desperate. I did not mean to do that. " He pleaded, feeling so scared with the look on his face which was so deadly. " You will definitely pay for what you just did!" He said and stood up and was about to leave when Ashley held his hands. " Please, let me explain myself. I would not in any way want to do that to you deliberately. I was only in a tight position and just wanted to use the opportunity to let my father know that not everyone is to be looked down upon" He said again while Jack looked at him, wondering what he was talking about." The last time I checked, did you not do that to me?"" It's a different case entirely and besides, I am really sorry for what I had done to you. I'd really appreciate it if you give me a chance to explain myself" He said again while Jack looked at him again. He had a look of sinc
Hoping that he would not see him, Jack walked away instead of flagging down a cab which would cause him to suspect he knew of his conversation. Suddenly, his phone beeped. Bringing it out, he was not surprised to see a credit alert on his phone. Congratulations, you have just been credited the sum of 900 billion dollars. Revenue for the month. He sighed. Money like this did not even entice him again unlike before. Just then, he tilted his head. He should probably get a gift from Mira? This time, he would muster the courage and let her know that he was man enough to tell her about his feelings for her. It was eating him up that she still considered him as a friend! Fortunately for him, he was right in front of a store that sold teddies. " Would she love one?" He muttered as he walked right inside the teddy shop. Fortunately for him, what could have turned to an embrassment for him was not there as all of the attendants were right on the counter. All the customers needed to do
" Let me go?" Jack muttered and continued to shop like he did not hear anything but then, he seemed bothered. Still, a part of him wanted him to have a glance of what was going on and another part of him did not care about her. After all, whatever happened to her was mone of his business. Suddenly, the alarm ticked. " Red code!" The computer beeped out while everyone rushed towards the scene including the attendants and the security officers. Tilting his head in curiousity, he stared at a particular direction before he passed through to see what was going on. " Hey, mister, stop this! You could go to jail for this!" A security officer yelled out. " I don't mind going to jail as long as I don't see this bitch again!" He yelled out. Just as one of the officers was about to stop him, he aggressively pushed him away while he continued to hit Clara who kept on screaming." Quick! Call the police and let them take this lunatic away from here!"" Somebody, help me!" Clara screamed o
" Mister, no matter what happens, you should not get involved with that crazy woman! All she cares about is money!" Jess said as everyone stared at her until she left the shop. " Really? I believe you must have known her deeply for you to know about that part also"" What she does not know is that the class governor is my twin brother. Once she sees that you have money, she would automatically become your friend, not caring that she has a boyfriend. She has done a lot of bad things all for money! Give her the whole world and she would never be contented;" " I've been in that position also!" Jack said as he shopped for the teddies. " What do you mean?"" I used to be her boyfriend and I can testify to that!"" Oh my goodness, that crazy woman? I feel so sorry for you but these teddies are way too expensive. What is your budget?" She asked while he smiled. Even though she was like every other attendants that seemed like they did not want to give him a chance to shop, she still manag
Just as Jack entered the cab, his phone rang out loud which distracted him from his thoughts. Seeing that it was Mira, he did not hesitate to pick up the call. " Mira, what's up? I also wanted to call you because I have something to give you and…"" Jack, can you come to the police office? I am right here with Baby. If you can also testify that Baby did not do that to you, I am sure that he will be freed" She said while Jack sighed. He could do anything for this woman but doing that for her was not what he could do! That simply meant that he was not capable! How could he tell lies?" Mira, I can not do that but I will be there!"" What…" Before she could say anything else, he hung up the call and sighed. " Northwest police office" He told the driver. ***" I told you. That man is nothing but a fraud! I was just out there dining with some friends when this poor man came from nowhere and caused some trouble, leaving him because he was poor while I was brought here!"" But I thoug
