A few minutes after Ceaser left, a figure rushed into the room and stopped short when he saw the old woman on the floor in the pool of her own blood.“Fuck” Nick muttered under his breath as hs rushed over to her and felt her neck but he could not feel any pulse from her, “get an ambulance here Ashley” he spoke into the earpiece in his ear and after like half an hour, the ambulance arrived and conveyed the corpse away.Sighing heavily, he unbuttoned his suit as he leaned on his car and helped himself to a pack of cigarettes. He was supposed to be on the flight with April to America now but his conscience didn’t allow him to leave without checking on the woman first and now, she died because of him.As he brought the cigarette closer to his mouth, someone snatched it from his hands and when he looked it was his wife.“I thought you were halfway to America by now?” He asked as he raised his brows.“We can do that later, any CCTVs around?” She asked as she scouted the area.“None” The t
Dressed in a pair of navy blue suit and with the help of his son, Gregory slowly made his way to the arena and a loud applause left the crowd while the host for the aluta morning show had a bright smile on her lips.“We are happy to have you on our show sir” she said politely and Gregory nodded as he lowered himself on the sofa with the help of alvanon.“My pleasure” he finally said after Making himself comfortable.Turning to the camera, the host who’s name was Beatrice began to talk and the smile on her face lingered,“Good morning everyone and we are glad to have all of you in the studio today. With me on the morning edition of aluta live is number one businessman and presidential candidate Mr Gregory furgesson, you are welcome once again sir” she said smiling at him.“ my pleasure” he replied once again.“We will just go straight to the point sir, you are a very busy man and we won’t want to waste your time”“Yes” he nodded.“The fugesson group of companies just started its patner
“You have a visitor” the jailer announced as he walked to the cell room. Chris was sitting in a corner and as he heard the jailer’s voice, his eyes lit up. Maybe his family was here to see him.“Who?” He asked further.“I think you should see for yourself” he retorted and led him out of the room.The moment he got to the visitor’s quarters, he was surprised to see his ten year old daughter and she was with Nick. How did he even get to meet his daughter?Clenching his fist, Chris walked towards the two of them and his daughter’s face creased into a smile.“Dad?” She called.“My angel” Chris muttered as he placed his hands on the glass barrier, how he really missed his daughter after all these days.“Why are you in here dad?” She asked again but Chris ignored her and had his eyes fixated on Chris who had a smirk on his face.“How did you get to my daughter?” The veins on his neck were already popping out. Oh boy, he was angry.“Let’s say I told the school teacher I was her uncle which l
“What?” Mr president snapped out in suprise, “why will I do that?”“Because you need my money and I need your help” Nick responded fearlessly as the smirk on his face widened.“I have already pitched my tent with your father, I can’t go back on my word”Nick kept smiling as he leaned on the sofa, “I have a list of people who my father was In touch with when I was missing years ago and i have reasons to believe that they are all Involved with me one way or another. Your name is on that list too Mr president, what do you have to say?”The old man’s eyes opened wide, was this little boy threatening him right now?“Are you threatening me?”“Should I?” Nick retorted, “I don’t have an issue with any of you because you didn’t attack me directly, I will attack all of you through Gregory and you Mr president will help me. I am a nice person and I can rattle about your hidden assets to the public”The president sighed, Nick Nick sure came prepared for him.“The election is in four months and I
The duo watched as the plane flew high into the sky and Nick sighed, his sister was going for the better and he was happy for her but he knew she was just pretending to be strong . No one would actually be happy if his or her family was falling apart.“What are you thinking so intently about?” April prodded hun and he smiled at her.“I am missing my sister already” came his sincere reply, “she loved being around me” he added.“This is for the best” April advised, “no one would be happy to see her family falling apart”Nick scoffed, truly the human mind worked in sync. This was the stuff he just thought of and his wife was saying it.“Well, we should get this over with now. Let’s get going I need to find the IP address that was used to send that message”“Before then, let me take you somewhere” Nick said as he smiled at her and then, he walked away slowly.“Why is he behaving unusually?” April muttered to herself in confusion as she followed.The drive was a quiet one and April found i
While the other couples were having the best time of their lives, Gregory was pacing around his living room in anger while his wife and kids were seated on the sofa. They all had grim looks on their faces like they wanted to cry, actually they wanted too. Nick was doing more harm than necessary.“Pacing up and down will not help the situation Gregory. We have to move fast” his wife’s voice resonated in his ears, “we have to get rid of him once and for all”Gregory finally stopped pacing and faced her, “right now our hands are tied Emilia. He has a lot of evidence on us and any little mistake will spill doom”“Then we kill him quietly” Nessa suggested and alvanon had an inkling to give her a dirty slap.“Do you think Nick is that little boy of five years ago? He is a made man now” he hissed and faced his father, “what should we do father?even I am short of ideas now”Gregory finally sat down and turned to his wife ,“We have only one option now”“What?”“We have to use his parents to t
“Did you like the food?” Nick asked as they both walked out of the restaurant and she gave a slight smile.“Yes, thank you. I actually feel refreshed” April replied.“I am glad you do, this is just a thank you for all you have been doing for me”“You are welcome” came her swift reply.They hadn’t even taken a step forward when they became swamped by reporters from different companies and they were all struggling to click a picture of the couple together.“Excuse us sir, is it true that you have purchased the aluta holdings?” Some of the reporters asked.“Did you know that your brother was attacked in the prison today?” Others asked but all in all, Nick had a smirk on his face.“We all know that karma is a bitch right?” Nick asked sarcastically as he smiled at the camera, “as you all can see I brought my lovely wife out for dinner and she is very tired. She has to rest”“Does that mean you don’t care about your brother?” One of the female reporters asked.“Why should I care about a fam
The moment he entered the house, he rushed over to where his wife was seated and she looked very busy, like super busy trying to track the IP address but on three occasions, she failed.“Fuck” April yelled in fraustration as she threw the laptop close, “why is it so hard?”“You can’t track the address?” Nick asked back.“It’s heavily encrypted”“Why don’t you try getting the data from the network database. That will be easy for you right?”Her lips finally curved up into a smile, “hmm, it seems my intelligence is rubbing off on you Nick. I didn’t think of that actually”“Then do” Yet again, she opened her laptop and began to type again, this time she was faster than usual and even Nick was struggling to keep up with her pace. Just how did she read the information on the screen so quickly when he was struggling?“Am in” April finally announced.“Who sent it?”“Just a sec” she responded and pressed a few more buttons before the information she was looking for popped up on the screen.“
