I paused and thought about what he said for a moment.There was a possibility that what he was saying was true but it was a risk I was willing to take.After all I have been through in the hands of these selfish people I can't just just let them off easily. It won't sit well with me."It doesn't matter if the evidence is true or not but I am sure and I trust the source. Besides, I want to be business partners with him as well." I replied.I don't understand why Oliver was this bothered.My guards were the ones that carried out the investigation. I just asked him to give me a number to call.I just think he doesn't want me to get involved with this man, how bad is this man that Oliver wants to stay away from him?"Suit yourself, you are going on Monday right?" Oliver asked."Of course I want to strike at a steady pace and not give them any room." I replied."Fine bye." He hung up and sent me what I asked him for.The weekend passed by quickly and it came to the D'Day.CEO Nelson had al
I paused for a moment to consider my next words carefully.I wonder if I should just let this go and not mess with him, I don't want such enemies now that I am climbing up the ladder.I don't want him pushing me off because I knew he might attempt to do that even though it won't be easy to bring me down.CEO Nelson is an intimidating man even though he was old so I gave him my respect.Even though he just threatened me I smiled at him in response to his threat.If there is anything that I learnt while dealing with Oliver is that no matter how much he threatens me I should be level headed and not give in to fearI should not show fear in front of him or he will take me as a weakling.I have struggled and been at my lowest point so I can't run away from struggles or problems now. It's just a daily occurrence in life."I am not trying to turn you against your son as I can see that you care for him a lot, but love blinds many people to see what is really in front of them." I reminded him
Who would even want to be called an illegitimate child even though it was not Barke's fault that he was conceived.He still wanted to be acknowledged and respected , he won't get that but being in the position he is in now.He was already in a bad position but he was so stupid to get himself into Natalia's mess and make fun of me.I probably won't be here telling his Father this if he wasn't Natalia's affair partner that mocked me after messing around with Natalia while we were still married.Some people still knew that he was an illegitimate child so there was no way for him to actually be the CEO if his father stepped down from the position.He has other brothers. No matter how good Barke is ,he will always be the black sheep of the family that just came and tinted the picture of the perfect family of CEO Nelson."I guess I understand to a point." CEO Nelson nodded his head in understanding as he sighed and rested his back on the couch.Maybe he was blaming himself for this."I wil
Thomas POVBarke looked like someone who had seen a ghost.He didn't move an inch from where he stood.Then he started glaring daggers at me but I was unfazed, he couldn't do anything since he was in a powerless state. I mean If he decided to act violently and attack me it would be his loss and more punishment to him since he was in jail already.My smile didn't leave my face and it seemed to be annoying the heck out of Barke as he frowned deeply.Who gave him the right to be annoyed when he couldn't stay away from a married woman?He should blame himself for his downfall.He should have thought about this with his head other than what's in his pants.I still don't understand why someone would literally see dozens of beautiful and respectful women out there and still get involved with a married woman.It was just so disgusting to me, if I was abusing Natalia in any way it would have been different. It could be said that I pushed her away with my abuse but heck when I think about all
Thomas povI cleared my throat and adjusted my tie."I am just saying the uniform suits you well." I smiled."A man who betrays his own father deserves to be punished." I said and I could see him breathing heavily.I mean not all men would bring their mistress's child into their company because they know it will be bad for them if the truth was ever revealed but his Father took such a risk.He must clearly care for all his children with no exceptions."Your father was gracious to you, but how dare you stab him back?" I asked."You are nothing but trash." I mutter.Honestly I don't like men that leave their wife or cheat on them and have children outside but because of what Barke did to me, I honestly do not care.How dare he sleep with my wife and laugh at my face.He was no better than scum."Was this your doing?" He asked suddenly as he had this unknown look on his face.Guess he has put the pieces into place.Even though I wanted to burst out laughing and admit to it being my doing
Thomas pov: If Grace doesn't want to work for me that's fine but I don't think she should continue to stay at Mr. Gabriel's house where she isn't valued. I know very well how badly Natalia's family treats their maids. "Well,yes that's why I called,I want to hire you as a cook or maid, anyone that you prefer, I want to stop eating outside for the time being." I told her. I don't know why any time I go out to eat I must run into someone that will make me annoyed and besides I like Grace's food better. " I hope there isn't a problem?" I asked Grace when she still kept quiet after I confirmed what I said. Grace sighed heavily and I raised an eyebrow at that. "Mr Thomas, how can you ask me to do something like that?" Grace asked and with the way she spoke I was sure she was offended. I didn't mean to offend her with what I said. "I know you are loyal to Mr Gabriel's family but they don't see your value as much as I do, you need to work for someone that won't take your services for
Natalia's POVI was wrapped in my duvet laying sadly on my bed,my eyes were bloodshot and I could not believe that I was in this helpless position.I have stayed holed up in my room for close to two weeks because I was crying each day and wondering why Thomas made me do something so humiliating.Even though Thomas kept to his word and Dad hasn't spoken about kicking me out of the house again I feel so humiliated.How could Thomas say that he loved me if he was willing to make people below insult and ridicule my actions.My highschool classmates always envied my life and were at my beck and call so I could give handouts to them but now I was being made fun of and called all sorts of degrading names.I thought Thomas said that he will forgive me if I did what he asked ,but when I asked him he again he said told he might or might not forgive me even after I told our highschool classmates the truth and I was stupid to think that he said he will forgive me.Thomas called me an evil woman b
Natalia's POV: Dad paused for a moment before proceeding to reply. "Your business partner Mr Felix, he said he only wants to work with you and requested to meet up with you." Dad revealed. My face crawled up in disgust at the mention of the name. Oh no, not that disgusting creep. What does that man want "I am not going anywhere." I said firmly. Last thing I want to do now is meet up with someone when I am an emotional wreck. Especially Mr Felix. "Then prepare to starve, what I and Thomas agreed was to let you stay at home, I didn't agree to feed you." Dad jeered at me. I couldn't believe my ears as I had tears in the corner of my eyes at this point. I took shaky breaths. "What is wrong with you Dad ?can't you give me a break?" I cried out in frustration. My Dad just scoffed at my question and even though it was evident that I might start crying at the slightest provocation he didn't care. "Shut up that your stupid mouth!" Dad yelled at me and Mom just glared daggers at me
