Declan adjusted in his seat. He was not sure he heard his father properly. "You want me to take over the oil business?" He asked his father.
Ferdinand nodded as he chuckled happily. He was amused at Declan's show of surprise.
"You can begin working on your legacy again.
You do not have to give up on that too", Ferdinand continued. "Besides, you thrive better in something that you are passionate about". Declan nodded.
"I cannot leave the family business to die off dad. I bought it to rebuild it. It would not be a wise venture to just up and leave everything behind", Declan said in consideration.
"I am not asking you to leave the business Declan. You can work u

Declan started work at the restaurant the following week, and he loved every bit of it. A feeling of nostalgia hit him hard on the day he started.It reminded him of those days he worked at bars, restaurants, and coffee shops as a waiter. Abigail's restaurant was truly the five-star it was. It held an expensive aura that only depicted beauty and class.A bar was adjoining the far end of the large hall, and there was a club underground. It was fascinating.

With a swift movement, Declan concealed Patricia from his view. The restaurant was big enough and somehow, he managed to get her into covering before Daniel could see them.Patricia had told him earlier that her husband had no idea that she was coming to see him, and he did not want to be a source of trouble either."Daniel is here," he told her in a whisper.

Declan took the first flight the next morning to his father's place. As he sat on the plane, he felt more fulfilled than he ever was in the past few months. His father wanted him to come to take over the oil business full-time. He had no intentions of letting anyone else know about this new venture. When he had informed Abigail and Hannah the previous night, he had told them that he needed to clear his head for some time with Samson. Hannah had clung to him in the airport. She had wanted so badly to come with him, but he had assured her that he had something planned out for them already. Abigail said she thought it was a good idea, to get away from the madness of the city. He had told Samson that

"Meet Samantha", Ferdinand introduced. "She's going to be your assistant here, and will personally show you the ropes around here". Samantha let out a small smile and stretched forth her hand for a handshake. Her hands were soft like she had not done any hard work in her entire life. Their eyes met for a brief moment and she seemed to be saying something with her eyes, something he could not place his fingers on. He knew that he would think about it for the rest of the night. She was tall, a perfect height that suited her hourglass figure so well. She was black and her skin tone was perfect for her beautiful face. She was elegant, and Declan could sense class. She worked in an oil firm after all. It spilled money. Her knee-length dress clung tightly to her figure accentuating her curves, and he wondered why she bothered to wear heels. They were other things that made him wonder. It was almost midnight and the whole place was still bubbling with activities. Not everybody wore wo

"Yes I did", she replied, her eyes still fixed on what she was doing.He decided to let it be. She would come around eventually. "We have about ten minutes before the general staff meeting", she said curtly, raising her head. Their eyes met and Samantha removed hers first. She could not deny that he was breathtaking.Declan was a good-looking young man, and she could not help working with him for a long time

Declan panicked, and Samantha saw how worried he was after the phone call."Are you okay?" She asked him, trying so hard to avoid hitting a nerve. "I'm fine.I just need to travel back to the city immediately", he replied, trying to dial again. "Don't give me that Declan. You are worried about something or someone", Samantha pressed.Declan let out a sigh and looked up at her. "It's Hannah. I think she is in trouble", he began. "She called and I answered, but all I could hear were muffled like she could not talk or something".Samantha looked fixedly at him. She knew it was Hannah. She did not know if to be worried or jealous. She decided to suppress the latter. Now was not the time.
