Earlier today, at the Featherington house.Robert was watching a football game in his living room. He had his plate of favourite oyster dish beside him and a bottle of beer to go along as he enjoyed the game.He was sucking the seasoned piece of oyster in ecstasy when James barged into the room."Dad! You won't believe what just happened!" He shouted in joy. Robert almost choked on the oyster in his hand and it spilled unto his lap, burning him a bit."Ouch!" He exclaimed. He coughed up a bit and cleaned up his mouth in a hurry. "What's the matter?" He was a bit annoyed that he had spilled his prescious oyster by James's ruckus.James seemed to not even notice the subtle frown on his dad's face. "You won't believe what Mr Philip has done dad!." He exclaimed.Robert's face changed from one of annoyance to an expression of interest be anticipation. "Yes, yes. Out with it. What did he do?""He transferred my job from his company to the Charlton Company!" He said with a small bump of his
A couple of minutes ago, when Robert had excused himself to receive his call, Rachel's phone also rang. She simply sat down and accepted the call. It was a similar call to the call that her husband Robert had received. The caller was informing her that a big beauty care shop had been purchased in her name. That all she had to do was to come the next day to sign the documents and claim the rights of ownership. Rachel thought she didn't hear clearly and told James to turn off the music. Unlike Robert, she didn't really think this to be a prank call. But it was still unbelievable. Was this her pure imagination?But when the call was ended she received images and even videos of the shop and the documents she needed to sign. It was then that Robert walked back in with a dazed look on his face as well. They were both quiet at first. Then a few minutes later, another call came in to Robert's phone. He accepted immediately. This time it was a man that spoke. "Good afternoon Mr Robert, I
Darius's Family had been having a great time recently. After the surprise of the company and the shop that Robert and Rachel got. It took a while for them to adjust. It was a busy time for them.First they had to get familiar with the facilities and the equipments, they also had to learn the processes and also become familiar with the staff of both places.After the initial suprise, they were somehow thinking it was still a prank until a few days passed and nothing happened. Philip even showed up in the company and the shop to see by himself. Robert and Rachel had given him VIP treatment and we're following Philip around during his visit that one would think they were his servants.But everything only made Philip more disturbed. He was still very curious about who had gone to such lengths to impersonate him.When he was leaving them, he told his spy there to keep more watchful eye on them and observe if there was anybody strange who could be the mastermind behind everything.He even
'That was awesome.'Philip thought to himself as he stirred awake and sat up on the edge of his bed. He was feeling good, he didn't know why. Maybe it was the dream he had, but he couldn't recall anything about it. He just knew that it was about him and Carla. So his dopamine levels were a little high this morning. He was in a good mood.He let out a small chuckle as he picked a side bedframe picture of Carla and caressed it."Good morning love." He whispered to it. "You'll be mine one day, I just know it." He said to it confidently. But the Carla in the portrait just maintained her slight smile that seemed a bit forced. She wasn't a fan of pictures so taking one had been quite of an hassle for her.Philip disregarded it. Whether it was a forced or a genuine smile, it didn't matter to him. She was beautiful without question. She was giving him a tough time in courting her but he wasn't ready to give up yet. He only had more passion whenever he looked at her picture or saw her physica
'What a nice weather today.. what should I do next?' Philip wondered as he headed for his car.It was a cloudy weather today but it didn't seem like it would rain. Philip strolled the walkway and passed by some beautiful ladies, he couldn't help but look at them in fascination. He might have even approached some of them but he was still in Carla's place of work. He was trying to make a good impression so he couldn't allow any more rumors.Some people were also throwing glances his way as they remembered his face from the events that occurred not too long ago. Philip noticed them but ignored their gazes and kept moving.Seeing Alicia bad the way she ignored him had rang a sour note in his mind so he wanted to do something to keep his light mood up."Mr Philip.." Philip's blooming smile froze on his face as he heard the familiar voice. He turned back and saw Darius behind him. It caught him unawares. Somehow, he had been hoping to avoid Darius.But here he was. Philip scanned Darius fro
"Hah..." It was a tired sigh that fell from Maxwell's mouth after hearing Darius' intentions.He suddenly had a bad premonition. "Wait a minute young master..." He blurted out with his arm outstretched as if to stop Darius from moving. Darius looked up from his computer that he was browsing through. He was curious what was going through Maxwell's head that made him have such a reaction."What is the matter, Max?" He asked"Young Master... Please don't tell me this is going to be a scam business?" Maxwell asked in doubt.Darius laughed. "You're so smart Maxwell." Then he smiled."Naturally, you didn't think I'd actually work with them did you? This is revenge Maxwell, not an actual business." His gaze turned hard. "They have to suffer consequences in any way."Maxwell released another sigh.. "just take it easy on them Young Master. His father has nothing to do with Philip's actions." He tried to plead for them."Is that what you think? That he's actually innocent?" Darius scoffed. "The
The previous day. After Maxwell arranged the meeting between the Ladrak Company and the Charlton Company."Philip, I have an assignment for you to carry out." Philip's Father said the moment Philip received his phone call. It was immediately after speaking with Maxwell that Mr Churchill called his son with a rare excitement that he didn't usually show.Philip felt a shiver run through his body unexpectedly. He had paled when he first saw his phone and noticed that it was his Father calling him. He assumed his Father had somehow discovered how he treated Darius earlier morning and he feared he was in for some tongue lashing and maybe even some form of punishment from his father.But hearing the tone at which his father spoke right, he naturally had doubts. He seldom saw his father excited about something so he wondered what it was."An assignment? Dad.. what do you want me to do?" Philip asked his father in reply."There's a call that came in to me now. The Charlton Company has a busin
"Knock! Knock!""You may come in!" Darius's voice resounded through the doors to the person knocking on the other side. In the next moment the door opened and then.."Click! Clop! Click!"Darius instinctually looked up from his table to look the person who paraded into his office. Then Alicia walked into his office with a sophisticated knee length sheath dress in a deep navy blue color that clung to her attractive figure."Good morning Darius." Alicia greeted Darius with a pleasant smile as her radiant skin reflected the morning sunlight that peeked into the office from the windows. It was like an angel had walked in."Good morning Alicia. I trust you had a great night. Sorry for the short notice..." Darius said indifferently. Even though his marriage with Carla wasn't in a good state, Darius was not fazed by the lovely appearance of Alicia. She was beautiful, yes, but he wasn't sexually attracted to her. If you asked Darius to describe the relationship between two of them, he would s
