“Sir the next company is the AHU company, should I invite them in?”“No, invite MLE instead” he said then looked towards Nuella who was seated calmly.Nuella did not have a clue of what Oliver was upto.Marcos and his team were seated in one of the company's waiting rooms when he was told that it was their turn to get in. He was surprised since he was already told his company was the last that would get into the meeting room. Not wanting to think too much about it, he and his team headed into the meeting room.He walked into the meeting room with his team and bowed his head “Hello everyone, my name is Marcos Lee, I’m from country B and newly set up my company here in H city, I’m glad to get into this partnership with Haywood’s Cooperation” he said with a smile on his face and his eyes moved round the room. It first settled on Oliver who gave him a look that made him shiver then his gaze moved to Nuella who was seated close to him in a professional manner.Marcos was not expecting to
Oliver was not able to concentrate in the office, he tried to stop thinking about Nuella but he could not. Even after he found out that it was her grandfather’s men that came to take her, his heart was still not at ease. He stood up and left the office, leaving all the work he had behind.Ethan saw his boss leaving the office when he was going to summit some important files and inform him about a crucial meeting they had.“Boss are you leaving the office?”“Yes”“But there is a crucial meeting that you need to attend in about an hour”“Cancel it”“Huh?” Ethan widened his eyes, his boss would usually not cancel meetings especially the ones that were very important so what was wrong this time around?“I said cancel it!” Oliver half yelled, he was already stressed out todayEthan swallowed and bowed his head “Yes boss”Oliver gave him a cold glance before walking awaySince the argument his boss had with Miss Armstrong, he has been in a terrible mood. He is very sure that he was leaving
She very well remembered what her grandfather had said the last time, “Grandfather, what do you mean, is there something I need to know about Oliver?” He had said something about her not knowing the kind of man Oliver was.Romulo looked at his granddaughter with a look of regret. He was about to open his mouth to speak to someone barge into the room.They both looked towards the door and were surprised to see that the person who had barged in was Oliver.Oliver frowned when he saw that she was kneeling on the bare floor, he took long steps towards them then dragged her up from the floor “Don’t you ever kneel on a cold floor again and not when you are carrying my child” he warned. He already knew that her grandfather had found out everything so no need to hide it in front of him.Nuella pulled her hands away from him and seeing that, he frowned and held her hand again. She did not look at him and just paid attention to her grandfather.“You Rascal” Mr Armstrong gritted his teeth “Are y
All throughout the ride home, Nuella was silent, she did not say anything to him nor did he say anything to her. She had a lot of questions to ask him in regards to what her grandfather had said but she is going to wait till they get home before asking him about it.Oliver gaze went to her and he saw how lost in thought she was, he could easily tell what was going on in her mind.When they arrived back home, she was quick to step down from the car and started walking inside. Oliver got down and took long steps towards her then held her hand making her stop and turn to look at him.Rosa had come out to welcome them home but when she saw the view in front of her she quietly left with the other maids.“You want to ask me something?” Oliver asked“Yes I have a lot to ask, why did my grandfather say that I don’t know who you really are?”“Come with me” Oliver took her along with him to the elevator and then pressed a bottom leading to the basement.Nuella felt the elevator going done “The
After kissing for long minutes they disengaged from the kiss and Nuella caught her breath, her cheeks were red. Oliver saw how surprised she was with the sudden kiss and how her face reddened. They stared at each in silence and did not break eye contact.“I got you a driver and a bodyguard to follow you anywhere you go from today onwards” Oliver broke the silence.“A new driver?”“Yes a new driver, you can no longer leave the house alone and come back alone. I have to be sure you are in safe hands at all times'' he saidNuella nodded “After you are done, I want you to head to the family residence in the evening”“To the family residence? Is there a reason why, is grandma okay” Nuella asked in worry, Oliver will not just want her to go to the family residence just like that.“Elena will be arriving this afternoon and grandma is holding a small welcoming party for her this evening and she wants you to be there”“Are you going to be there?”“You want me to be there?” He asked her as he
“This project is going to fail” Nuella said as she used red ink to write a big “FAIL” on the front page of the project file then slammed it on the table. Everyone present looked at her in surprise.“That project has already being approved by me, what makes you think it’s going to fail?” Raymond asked, he could not understand the action of his daughter. Her grandfather had brought her here for the project signing since he has made it mandatory that her signature must be in every domestic and foreign project that the Armstrong empire is to embark on.She was only supposed to read the project and add her signature to it for approval only for her to do this?“This project took months to prepare” Raymond added when he was completely ignored by her.Celine who stood far away felt her anger growing by her action. Did she know how long it took their father to prepare this project? She gritted her teeth.The other CEO’s that were present were surprised by her action, why would a daughter reject
“Surprise!!” The moment she stepped into the house she was welcomed warmly.“Oh mine” she smiled when she saw everyone was present, her high school friends including a few other family friends were present.“Welcome back my granddaughter” Grandma May said“Grandma” Elena did not waste time to immediately hug her grandma “I have missed you”“Grandma I have missed you too” she said emotionally Nuella stood close by as she smiled at them bothElena hugged her friends one after the other before hugging some of the faces she remembered until she got close to Alex.“ Alex”“Elena”They both hugged Elena also hugged Alison and when she got close to Nuella she stood and looked at the beautiful lady.“Welcome home Elena” Nuella smiled at herEveryone stood watching including grandma May who wanted to see if Elena would like her sister in law just as they all do.After staring at her for what seemed like five minutes, Elena smiled and hugged her which took Nuella by surprise, she did not thi
For the past month, a lot has changed between them. Although Oliver has never for once told her he loved her or liked her but each passing day he showed her how much she meant to him. The past two months was what she had wished for. First, Oliver was falling for her, second she was now the vice president of the Armstrong empire, third, she was going to be a mother with this tiny angel growing in her everyday. Fourth, she had a good relationship with his grandmother and his sister.But her happiness will not be complete until she seeks justice for the death of her sisters. “I found the location of the assassin that shot then that day”“What is the location”“In a small village in the west”“I don’t want you to get involved again, leave it to me, I will make sure to handle the situation and soon you will be able to get justice for the death of your sisters. All you have to do is take care of yourself and our baby.“I want to be there the day you torture the truth out of him” “Do you
