"He is dead" the doctor dropped the bombshell."W-wh-what did you just say? Who died?" Ola asked, stuttering at the same time. Tears were also flowing on their cheeks. Their world just crumbled right in front of them.Their father died with no way to get the money in his bank account.Monica fell on her buttock, crying profusely.Ola looked confused, tears were flowing but she couldn't cry loudly.Zara was also dumbfounded, she was still in shock, not knowing the next thing to do, likewise her mother, Ava.Darren and Anita were also perplexed. They were also surprised.Shortly after, His corpse was wheeled out of the ICU, his body was taken to the morgue, which Ola and Zara followed but Monica couldn't go."Mr. Darren?" Another doctor came out of the ICU and called Darren, which also caught Anita's attention.She has been waiting for the doctor to call them regarding her Nephew's health."How is he? What happened to him? Hope he is going to be fine? Does he need surgery?" Anita rushe
"Let's start the Investigation" he commanded and smirked, thinking about what will happen to the person, if he is successfully caught."Sir, do you think the same person that sent the pictures to ma'am is the same person that released the pictures?" Easton asked out of curiosity."I have been thinking about it also, the person that sent the pictures wanted minty, while the one that uploaded it wanted to embarrass me and bring me down. It's possible they are working separately or both are working tomorrow together with different motives' ' Darren answered.Easton nodded his head, like he understood what he just explained."The source of the information is still unknown, which should be the first to find" Easton added."Yeah, let's go," Darren instructed.Both left the company through the front door. Though the reporters were there but with the hefty securities, they wouldn't dare to move closer to them. They would have gone through the backdoor but their conscience was cleared, so there
"When? How! Where? Who? My husband is the owner of this house and he isn't in the country currently. So,I don't understand the gibberish that you are Uttering" Zara flamed up, trying not to be shocked by the whole scenario.The two guys glared at each other before bursting into a devilish laughter. "Hey! You don't need to remind us that Albert isn't in the country. Why don't you have a look at the documents? He signed the documents, collect his money after the deal was sealed. Can you check it?" One of the guys calmly talked to Zara, though from his way of dressing, he wasn't with a good guy vibe, but he only tried to compose himself."I don't fucking care about this rubbish a the fake document that you brought here! You just are here to scam us! How dare you tell you that someone that isn't here has sold the house, through media communication? You went far to forge the receipt of him, receiving payment. That's rubbish!" Zara yelled at them, she was already sweating like someone that
Darren stood in front of the hall, looking exceptional as usual. Easton also stood beside him and the reporters were listening attentively to hear him out. That was the first time he called them and they also made sure to come out massively."Good evening to you all. I'm here to talk about the pictures of my personal assistant and I that have been roaming the internet since the early hours of today. Initially, I didn't wanna talk about it but at a point, I think this is the best option, so that the cops intervene" he started.Easton opened the bottled water and gave it to him. He sipped from it before he continued."Truly, those two people in the pictures are my pa and i. As reporters, I think you know the damages of work hazard, despite working for only one sector. Now imagine what a CEO like me faces everyday, trying to make sure all my employers are well. I got a message, few days ago that one of my accountants was planning to leave the country with the company's money. Trying to v
The following morning, Zara went to the office. She still had two more resting days but she thought going there would earn her more trust from Anita, since the company has been dragged on social media for allowing her models to be working at the casino. Most especially, Maya was dragged for her incompetency which wasn't true.She noticed that all eyes were on her as she parked Ola's car that she was using. She dressed well, her pregnancy has started showing a bit. She neglected the stare and entered the company."Good morning" she greeted Stella that she met at the entrance but Stella only hissed in return. Zara knew coming back from the company wasn't gonna be easy since her picture was all over the internet but she thought that she was going to cope, knowing that no agency would sign her again.She entered Anita's office after she knocked and was given the go ahead to enter."What are you doing here?" Was the first question that Anita asked her."What else, I'm back to work. My le
Ola was in awe with the physical look of the house. The house looked like an old abandoned house in the nineteenth century. She couldn't believe such a house would still be available in the Twenty first century. She was perplexed."Is this the house you are talking about?" She asked the woman for confirmation."Yes, it's two flats and I need a tenant in one. This is one of the best apartments you can find in this area and it's also cheap" the grandma Explained with joy written all over her face."Oh no! I need a good apartment. Not a shattered one like this" she cried out."There is nothing wrong with this apartment. I've been living here since I got married to my late husband. You can even get cheap fruits and vegetables in this neighborhood since we harvest it directly from our farms. It's the best you can get but if you wish to go to the Town, then you need to prepare thousands of dollars per monthly payment" the grandma said.Ola found herself, sitting down on the floor, thinking
"You are moving out of this house? Are you for real? We discussed this accomodation for but not quite a long and you concluded on moving out just like that? Have you gotten an apartment?" Monica bombarded her with a series of questions."Sis, I'm tired if living like there is gonna be another hope for us to rise again, which isn't forthcoming. Nathan that scammed our father has been sentenced to life imprisonment with his properties confiscated but no hope to get out father's money. I think I need to start believing in reality. I need to start all over again and I have already taken the brave step the day I started working as a cleaner. Fortunately, I will be able to afford a small apartment for myself. I will find another three hour part Time job later. I think you also need to start something. By the way, don't forget to drop my share of the money left from the burial on my table tomorrow morning. I need it" she said and was able to climb the staircase when Monica stopped her."How
"What!" Monica was shocked."What have I done to deserve that? I was only trying to gain the access to see you because it's important" she stuttered."Access to see me by creating nuisance inside a peaceful place of work? I'm gonna tolerate any shit from you. Easton,the damages must be paid this week" he instructed, then went back to his office.Monica sat down on the floor, she was helpless. She had never imagined that it was going to turn out that way."Ma'am, this isn't the best place to think. You should go back to your house and get yourself a lawyer" one of the security guard advised.Slowly and sluggishly, she took up and left, without Uttering any statement.She was trying so hard to fight the tears that were threatening to fall on her face. She sniffed them back inside."No, it's not gonna happen. Darren said that to scold me. I'll go to his house later to apologize" she thought as she entered the house.She sat on the sofa, Lost in thoughts when the door opened, revealing Av
