Sniffing off the base of his shoe he noticed a strange buzzard coming out, sprouting underneath was a green yet succulent leaf with a water-permed root.He stepped forward and then another root sprouted out. It's not been a day since he revealed his father's century, the kind of work he did that made everyone respect him and made him roll in the dough.Spontaneously another root sprouted out again followed by another one, he bent forward and plucked them in his hand, outplayed it before his eyes, lost in the moment he was staring at it with all his attention he could tell it was no ordinary tree, just then a call came into his phone that his mother-in-law and everyone had moved into the Lance family for the season,Warren stared at his phone. “In case you go to the house and find it empty.” her voice let out calmly.Sawyer texted and as he finished reading the last line he dropped the phone on the desk. He’s been sitting on a gold mine, perplexed as to why he didn't know that he had a
He sighed, slumping his back on the wall with his gaze fixed to the ground. His hand dips into the back pocket of his trousers. He couldn’t find anything that would give him the peace he was after, instead, he stood up, strolling from one end to the other. Then he got to hit a spot at the back of his head where he was supposed to be somewhere right at that instant, He got to the Lance family group, knowing fully well that everyone would be there including Rita he normalized his fiesty releasing the fist he balled his hand into earlier. “Mother we always look like a fool waiting for Warren, I don’t know how highly a bastard thinks of himself. Sawyer's cousin said that while eating his food, Uncle Jake was nowhere to be found at the family gathering. He was probably stuck at a corner gulping on a drink that chrn down his throat. “I told you, didn’t I? That keeping Warren will warrant a lot of things. We have two weeks to stay in this house.” Isla Lance leans into her daughter's sho
“Sawyer I thought as the manager you’d be driving a top-tier car like a Mercedes or a Gwagon, I'm so disappointed with the way your life turned out, I was not expecting this wretched car from you. Doesn't speak well of your personality” Her cousin Liam let out nonchalantly then runner a sleek hand through her scruff to signal her other cousin, Sawyer restlessly smiled back at then bit on the bile surging her chest, Sawyer smiled forcefully into the plate, with her core aching, but the knowledge of her allowance made her heart melt blissfully as she walked up to her grandfather. It’s the first time they are seeing each other since the incident with Solomon Keg two nights ago. Where she almost lost her integrity and became a public caricature. “What nonsense you took Warren there despite the warning he ran unto you.” “Grandma, you have no idea the kind of person Solomon Keg is, it's everywhere that he's a druggist.” Sawyer protested. “That was a frame from Warren, this bastard orb
Uncle Jake in his state staggers forward, collapses on the sofa and starts scoring. The siblings sighed and looked at Sawyer waiting for her action.“Hey Sawyer, don't play tricks on us, we were jealous you could get engaged to someone like Hans but Warren, this good-for-nothing only has bug mouth.”Calmness cascaded down Warren's face. She dropped her phone on the table ignoring the background murmur she turned to Warren as if she didn't want to. “Is this some kind of play? Just tell me it’s a joke.”Before she could finish her talk, her phone rang and Sadie, curious to know why Sawyer looked stunned and furious at the same time, grabbed the phone from the desk and started going through it then swiped the icon to answer the call.“Mrs Sawyer of Lance family group, can you please step out if the building were outside, your signature is needed for the papers of the company.”Her mind flashes back to the event of the house, it was in the same manner and Warrebvwas unbothered by it, exud
Warren shook his head in his hand; he didn't expect his mother-in-law would be so sensitive to react this way.His in-laws rushed forward and snatched the car key grinder's hand. “Oh, I get it now, the reason you have badging contracts and even specifications when it comes to worms so it's sadny luck after all.”Sawyer's forehead was all sweaty she peeked at her mother, and words ripped out of her throat.“Tell us did you see his face? I bet you threw yourself at him, you're so cheap that it runs in the blood.”“That explains everything, father will be more than disappointed to learn how cheap. You fine with your stunt,”Rita grabbed Sawyer by the arm and locked her gaze with hers. “Tell me it's a lie.” she swallowed, “Tell me you don't know Lord Welsh, and you didn't have an engagement whatsoever with him.”Sawyer was stunned by her friend's reaction, she pulled herself from her arm and observed her, she was confused but Warren on the other hand was aware of everything. She grabbed h
The air became stiff and everything started to be faint, the sound of the needle hitting the floor became faint and the feel in his ear extremely sharp when he felt a trudge on his shoulder whimpering, “Warren, get up, you need to see this.” He quickly got to his feet and walked towards the boy when he was rushed to the theatre, he had been there since three hours ago, he fixed his gaze on his hand checking every angle of it.“There was no internal bleeding, it was only bruises on his face and we managed to have it plastered.”Warren took another step forward, still confused by what he saw.“Thank you sir, I’m forever indebted to you, you saved my son with your Divine’s healing,”Warren twisted his eyes together. “How did you know that and become so sure about it?”The man rubbed the scruff of his neck and held out to Warren on the wrist and wrapped his two hand around it appreciative he gazed into his eyes.“I know from the moment I saw you. Looking at you you’re not an ordinary man
Sawyer's face turned pale, her eyes wide and her mouth agape. “It is not what you think, I want to give you something,” Warren said as if reading the millions of thoughts running through Sawyer's mind at the moment.Sawyer almost agreed without saying anything. Abruptly she came to a stop at the entrance when she heard a sharp voice from behind. It was Sadie. “I can see you're keeping a secret about consummating your marriage.”Meanwhile, Rite is at the corner keeping an eye on Warren even with her conviction that he's not the person she is after, the more she observed the more she gets to the conclusion that Warren is not ordinary and this gave her more reason to observe moreWarren still couldn't get his head off the cliff of the series of events that happened today. First was the healing of the boy at the incident of the accident when he had lost all hope then the sudden outcome of resuscitation and second was Sawyer telling him that the car was properly repaired without any trac
Sawyer pulled out from Warren's room she stopped for some inches away from Rita, Rita pressed a hard gaze and then eased back from her path.“Where have you been, just for you to come and stand here, the guests have been waiting for you.” her grandfather said, rushing off to greet some of the guests. He didn't expect this to be so grandiose. “Great them with modesty, show them you're my blood.”Sawyer rolled her eyes, not entirely pleased with the idea of this.The occasional emotion behind his eyes was a figment of imagination, she scanned the living room one last time to make sure there were plenty of people.When she steps closer and draws the curtain together her footsteps are taken by something she's unfamiliar with.She can't tell if it's bravery or desperation that her hands are curled into fists, after what her cousins told her last night she hadn't been the same, she knows deep down if not for Warren she would still be wallowing in the corner and trying to take out a loan.Wa
The lady did not stop there she went on to put the painting on display. With the same disgust clouding her features.Warren stared at her in shock. So her judgement was only a measure of how well each of Deerick's classmates were doing and Sawyer's gift isn’t enough. Just some hours ago before Clifford went down the drill they hyping him and celebrating the fact that he came in such an extraordinary car.One of their classmates stood up. “I brought the best wild ginseng root for you to brew your coffee with.”Derrick thanked each one of them, he collected the box of ginseng and opened it and a well-stashed ginseng root was inside, single the root had been known for its herbal benefits one could guess how much it was worth, it was worth thousands of dollars and more.Another of his classmates came down he stuffed his hand into his pocket flew his pen across the paper and handed Derrick a cheque for twenty thousand dollars.He kept receiving gifts from each other of their classmates. So
Clifford proudly replied to their questions especially when they asked about securing a spot with the Welsh group. “Sure! you can! forward your resume, my dad can’t reject your resume in my hand he will get you one of their best start-off jobs.”Warren was shocked by all this, what is this bully turning his Welsh group into? he's busy chartering people just anyone and using his father as an excuse. More so he didn’t know that the man held such a high position. but now that he knows he won't sleep over it since his son wants to abuse the connection he has.This was Clifford flashing his flamboyance and indirectly firing his father. Warren quickly pulled out his phone from his pocket and searched for the name of Clifford's father on the lists of workers at the Welsh group, he found out that Clifford was right regarding the position his father held.He then placed a phone call that was unstable and walked to the corner when he noticed that all eyes were on him regarding the race and the
Clifford had barely the temper to think if he lost face in the predefined presence of his friends they would kick him and question his integrity.Furiously he chewed on his jaw and to see his gaze to the car combustion engine with the coffee in his hand he poured it infinitely.He raised his head and glared at every single one of them gathered there. “Look here I'm not a sore pathetic loser like Warren, I will not seek the sympathy of the good for nothing Sawyer decided to marry.”Suddenly he carried another gallon and poured his car until it was filled up and was pouring with the coffee not too long one of his friends rushed to sit in front of the driver's seat and start the car.At first, the car didn’t want to start but then smoke started emanating distorting the sound of his car engine that kept going off and slipping down he stood grim despite the burning sensation in his heart.The onlookers were extremely thrilled and excited and were now talking and murmuring in the background
Warren overtaking Clifford was still a nightmare. How could a fake Spectre take over his own original and limited edition at that?This left everyone restless and in panic, lucky enough for them they didn’t get anything, unlike the patriarchs who lied down their shares just for Warren to lose.They were still dumbfounded. No one would think Warren whom they have completely overlooked will fail would overtake Clifford's car at such speeds and manoeuvresRita was a butch, she lied about Warren knowing his ways with cars and driving recklessly was a trait of a car racer.Clifford was not halfway through with the race on the road and Warren had taken a turn through the road and yes heading towards them.Vroom…Clifford increased his car acceleration but his car won’t just go fasterWhen Clifford reached the finish line, there was a loud clap resonating through the air. His eyes almost bulged out as they looked around to find out the cheers were not for him but for his opponent.He hit his
Derrick was surprised by this bet but the harder he thinks about it the more exciting it is for him.Initially, he had gone to the Fairfield company to invite his friend over there, little did he know that Clifford was the manager there, so while he was passing out the information about his launching event.Then somebody asked will Sawyer be present and you replied, “I have invited all our classmates except for you I only came here because I was having a meeting but don’t get me wrong for the late invite. I hope to see you.”After hearing these Clifford felt left out he stomped out from his office. He glared at Derrick, questioning what he meant by inviting all his classmates except him, Derrick had no option but to give the party invite to him. It was more of a forced invite, Derrick tilted his head and looked at Clifford. “Man, don’t create a scene here.”“Derrick why don’t you stay at the corner we are trying to make your launching event permeable with some play, the new guy that
This was becoming unbearable for Clifford as Sawyer looked more radiant and beautiful than before and when he also learnt that she was the director of her grandfather's group, his view towards her changed. And with her trained leg pulled out of the classic Rolls Royce car, everyone started gossiping about her.“Sawyer became exceptionally rich, wow, I knew from high school she was destined for something great.”“Stop it do you know what it means to be the director of the Lance family group,”They exclaimed. “Woah do you mean her grandfather overlooked all his sons and daughters and handed the company to Sawyer? Sawyer is lucky to be the first woman with administrative control.”“But the problem lies with her choice of spouse.”Clifford couldn’t believe his ear, “are you telling me Sawyer married that good for nothing?”They exchanged glances reflecting on high school and why he almost beat Derrick to a pulp. “Don’t tell me you’re not over Sawyer. No one would because she’s become so p
Derrick's new site for his coffee shop was very close to the Lance family group, hence the drive there would take less time for them since the road was empty and free from traffic. Warren felt pretty somehow as to why Derrick decided to open his cafè here.But then you can’t be certain that because of the past event, he would ignore the lucrative sensation booking from the place, the Lance family group was located in the heartbeat of the town.However, it was a nice and brilliant idea for Derrick to open his cafè here.Derrick Cafè, named after his family name, Walter, was located at the corner of the street with several decorations around it to indicate its launch. It was so big occupying two floors for someone who dedicated his lifetime to learning different delicacies and coffee brewing abroad.Warren drove his wife’s car with the two of them inside. He parked it at the corner when he noticed that there were a few cars at the venue already, they coming and going if the people indic
Warren got on his scooter, surveyed the cloud and did some weather checks on his phone before getting on the road.He saw that it would rain in a few minutes, and gladly the online search to check for the nearby antique shop was not that far, if there was a little speed he would get there before he knew it.He then saw one painting that caught his attention, it was an ancient painting but no modern man would know it was worth a whole hefty price. He held it in his hand and walked inside the Lance family mansion.He called Sawyer to be sure she was in the house, Sawyer gaped in surprise when she saw the wrapped frame in Warren's hand, she stared at him dumbfounded and asked. “What is that in your hands?”Warren smiled and kept it in the corner. “I bought it for your friend Derrick since were going there for his launch, I think a monument to remember us by is a good idea.”Sawyer was flattered, at least Derrick wouldn’t have to deride Warren that much.“You bought it?” Sawyer inquired,
The picky and rude customer that got fired did not only regret missing a lucrative customer just by judging them from an outward appearance he also lost his job, he reflected on her Warren told him and slapped himself across the check so hard that it ached but it doesn't ache like the pain of losing your work.As Warren stepped out of the place he felt a vomit of challenge, in a mutation he pondered on what he would tell Sawyer regarding his impulsive spending, he'd wasted money over the five thousand dollars he lied about Harlan giving him. He can’t defend himself that he’s spent within the limit he set, meanwhile, he’s exceeded his budget.He can’t say he added another money for him after all one knows what he exactly did with the first quarter.He thought about what he could do until a perfect idea struck his head, he came to a stop at a nearby shop, and he then made a call to the company that they should make it look like a normal cake that as a client he won’t want it to be too o
