"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
Monica entered the house, looking tattered. She was coming from the court, where she was asked to pay a dime of five hundred thousand dollars and she reluctantly did, since she had no choice.All her life investment was gone, just because of a silly mistake.She collapsed on the sofa, crying like a day old baby. She was already frustrated.Ava was at the corner, looking drunk and she was still drinking. All her efforts to look for her daughter and reconcile with her were all futile. She was like a barren woman in her old age. Funniest enough, there were no properties under her possession."Do I continue living like this? I don't even have any dime to eat, talkless of accomodation. Darren that was supposed to help me had turned into a beast. What would I do?" Monica thought.While thinking, she decided to call Ola to see for work in the restaurant that she was working at. She was already at the junction that there was no other hope than to work."Hello sister" Ola greeted me from the
"Is this the hotel?" She was stunned.The hotel was made with mud and there was a well, as well as a kitchen outside, where food was being cooked with firewood.That was Zara's first time seeing people cooking with firewood."Yes, this is the best in our area. They offer you free food and I bet you won't be able to resist the taste. Also, the payment is just thirty dollars per day. Isn't that okay?" The man smiled, then went back to his work."Babe, this a village. You can't expect it to be glamorous like the place we were coming from. Let's manage this for a while, pending the time that we will get our apartment" Albert managed to convince her, then walked to the woman that was cooking, since there was no sight of receptionist they could make inquiry form."Good evening, we are here for a room. Who is gonna attend to us?" Albert asked, though the smoke from the kitchen was entering his Eyes but there was no other option."Oh, welcome" the woman came outside the kitchen, smiling at th
"Master, the CCTV cameras at the abducting side have been hacked. We will need some minutes to retrieve the footage" one of the guys Said."I don't fucking care of any methof you opt for. Just make sure that the footage is retrieved within a few minutes' ' Darren yelled.He was already sweating profusely. He wasn't foreseeing that from happening. Anita was assigned a driver which was supposed to be acting as her bodyguard but she chose to drive by herself that day, all because of the dinner with her friends.Assuming the guard was there, what happened might have been prevented because he was capable of dealing with whatever shit that may come her way.After a few minutes, Darren asked again."Any progress?" "The file is already loading. The hacker did a good job by deleting the footage but forgot we have access to all the cameras in this city" Easton smirked."Ready master" he said again after a few seconds.They checked the camera and noticed that the car has been around her office
"Hey! Wake up! Wake up!" Ava was still sleeping when she heard that disturbing voice from her sleep. She sluggishly woke us but was still feeling sleepy."C'mon. Let me sleep more" she begged."Have you gone nuts? Sleeping more hy five am? Don't you know you have to cook for my family? Didn't you sign an agreement to be the family's helper? Now, you slept for just a night and you are trying to be smart. If you don't stand up and go to the kitchen right now, you will regret your existence!" Sheila yelled at her.Ava immediately stood up. Sheila was the woman she met in her husband's house, after she arrived there to meet Fred but was informed that Fred had sold the house.She begged Sheila to accommodate her, which she accepted under the condition that she will be helping with the chores.She wasn't expecting Sheila to wake her up very early in the morning to cook for her family.She arrived at the kitchen, though where she was given to sleep wasn't the room inside the house but a ver
"Hey, are you blind or something?" Darren heard someone speak, loudly in an angry voice.He turned his head and saw a furious lady glaring at him furiously. He darted his eyes wondering why he was being shouted upon. He knew he hadn't done anything wrong so what was the lady glaring at him with a dagger look?"Why are you staring at me? Your filthy shoulder touched my outfits and yet, you are still staring at me without apologizing." She hissed at him with disgust.Darren's confused expression was so apparent and all he wanted to do was to just quickly apologize to the lady, as he knew he would be done if the issue escalated.He was only working as a waiter at the restaurant as he needed to earn a living, so if a problem occurs just because of this lady, then he doesn't know what he will end up doing.It would be so devastating if such a small issue resulted in him being dismissed. He won't even know what to do if it escalates."Without wasting time, he quickly spoke up. "Ma'am, I don
Zara, who was seated on the man's lap, quickly jumped up as she heard her name being called upon by a familiar voice. With panic and fear in her eyes, she turned her head slowly wishing it wasn't who she was thinking it was. However, her heart faltered seeing Darren watching her with disbelief and disappointed expression. A trace of guilt and shame lingered in her eyes for a while, before she opened her mouth to speak."D… Darren, I'm… I'm sorry, it's not what you are thinking." She quickly tried to explain herself as she knew that was the only way she could think of to get away from this mess.Darren almost burst out in anger as he watched Zara lying without feelings. He wondered if Zara takes him as a fool that she feels he would believe her words after seeing everything clearly with her own eyes."Are you even listening to your words? Do you think I'm a child that you could just lie to and I would believe?" Anger filled his expression as he asked."Darren, you just need to trust m
