Oswald arrived at the mall and saw his mother standing by a pillar with her hands crossed on her chest. She saw Oswald and rushed towards him, Oswald looked behind and around but saw no one but her. He looked at her and asked her,“Where are the people maltreating you? Mom don’t tell me that you were playing a prank on me. I left a serious meeting just to meet you.”“It’s okay, don’t act rude to me. I was telling the truth but she left with them when I called you said that you were coming.”Oswald looked as if his energy had been sucked out of his body but he controlled himself. His mother touched his hand but he backed away. He looked sideways thinking that they might not have left yet but he didn’t even see a shadow of them.“So, she left even though she knew that I was coming? That means she doesn’t want to see me right?”As he was thinking, he heard his phone ringing and he answered,“Have you found it yet? If you have, leave it on my desk, I need to have a look at it first.”“No
Julian was having a quiet time when she heard the horn of a car drive in. everyone was in the house but Oswald and so, she knew he was the one coming in. She looked up wanting to catch a glimpse of him but she saw him along with someone else. It was Tess, Oswald knew Julian wouldn’t want to see Tess but he had to bring her after all, she was going to be his future wife. Tess bought a few gifts to be given to Julian.The maid carried the gifts Julian but she said to her,“You can’t have them even though I don’t need them. Throw these rubbish into the dustbin where they belong.”Oswald wasn’t happy with this and said to Julian,“You can’t do that, why are you refusing someone’s kind gesture. That’s not like you, grandma.”“Oh but she was kind enough to drive my granddaughter in law out her home. And you expect me to be kind to accept a kind gesture from this kind of woman? No thank you.”Tess suddenly started crying, Oswald looked at his grandmother angrily but she looked away unconcern
In the office, Rod had read about the news about the accident and walked into Oswald’s office in agitation. He apologised to Oswald,“Sir, I’m so sorry about the leak of the video. I can promise you that it wasn’t leaked by the IT guy that we spoke about the last time. I settled him enough.”Oswald nodded his head as he watched the video leaked to the media. His eyebrows were wrinkled and his tie was loosed unlike his gentleman look he had on all the time. Rod knew he wasn’t happy about the news and so he said to him,“Sir, do you want me to let the news disappear?”Oswald shook his head and said to him,“No need for that, the Timothy’s must have planned this. They wouldn’t be happy if we tampered with it.”Rod nodded his head dissatisfiedly and was about to leave but then Oswald asked him,“What about the engagement ring? Have you received it yet?”Rod nodded his head and walked away without turning back.The next day, the party of Tess was a heated topic among the people in the city
Elsie smirked and looked in the way of the woman and suddenly smiled and then she said,“I am sorry that I came here uninvited. By the way, you are making a wrong accusation if you say that I attempted to murder your daughter. You are mistaking her saviour for her murderer.”How could she say such a thing? Didn’t she see the video?I’m wondering the reason behind her lies.“She’s a murderer and a deceiver as well.”Elsie smirked when she heard the words of the crowd and she thought,‘Just as I thought, my words won’t carry weight over a video. And so, I can only prove myself with a solid evidence as well.’Elsie looked in the way of Tess and smirked once again, she looked on as she thought of how embarrassed she would be after she show her evidence. Tess’s eyes met that of Elsie and she shook out of fear. She felt that Elsie truly had something on her for her to be so bold in front of several people. Tess saw Oswald watching Elsie but he didn’t have anger in his eyes, she couldn’t des
The people around were surprised by Elsie’s actions. Who would donate blood for her husband’s fiancée who was on a brink on death to keep her alive? They weren’t the only ones, Oswald looked in the way of Elsie and he thought of how cruel he had been to Elsie because of his thoughts that she was the culprit. She never blamed him or accused him of anything but held onto him, serving him and his family as well without any complains.Oswald kept looking at Elsie which caught her attention. She looked back at him and sneered, because she knew at the moment that Oswald might be regretting his actions. She was her lifesaver but she was considered the culprit, she found it sarcastic and so, she said to him,“We shouldn’t be blinded by our love for our close ones. That when they are doing the wrong thing, we wouldn’t see when it’s obvious. Today, I admit that you love Tess very much just as her parents do that you would believe her every words.”The crowd watched on, they had witnessed everyt
They arrived at the hospital with Elsie still holding her head. She got out of the car with her eyes red and in pain. Aires helped her by holding on to her waist, they walked inside the hospital and the attending nurse told them to sit for some time. Aires felt angry and shouted at the nurse,“Can’t you see that she’s in pain? Why do think we booked an appointment before coming?”Elsie held his hand and shook her head to him and said to him,“It’s okay, it’s bearable. The doctor must be attending to someone.”Aires was still angry but he sighed and held on to her hand more tightly. Elsie smiled and shook her head slightly, Sid saw their actions and snorted then said to their hearing making Aires smile slightly,“Why are they acting like love birds when I am still here?”The nurse came back and called Elsie to come. Aires wanted to go with her but she shook her head and said she would be fine alone. He wasn’t happy with that but sag down and left her hand with hesitation.Elsie walked
Elsie sat in front of the food and played with it, with the fork and knife. Sid and Aires watched her with worry in their eyes but they could only sigh about it. After taking a bite, she stood up and said to them,"You both can go ahead home, I will take the results and take medication if necessary."Sid shook his head and said to her,No, we came together and we intend to go with you to your house.He was about to say more when Aires tapped his hand and smiled towards her,"You can go, we will leave as well."Sid opened his mouth to say something but Aires glared at him and he stopped speaking. When Elsie walked away, Sid glared at Aires and nagged at him,"How old do you think you are to be glaring at your senior?"Sid stood up and surprisingly takes Aires head into his armpits, just as he was about to knock his head, he sees someone recording them. He stops immediately and messes up his head and said to him,"You are one lucky dude. The benefits of being a superstar, you won’t be b
She woke up the next day with hopes in her eyes. She dressed up for the day and went to the office. They were supposed to have a board meeting and so, she prepared herself to go there. In the meeting room, the shareholders were discussing the brilliance of a young guy dressed in a black suit and shirt. His hair was oiled and combed to his back and it lingered on shoulders, at first glance, one would think of him as a gentleman.But when he smiled, you would sight a devious expression, Elsie entered and heard praises of him. He watched Elsie walked in dressed like a business woman with some files in her hands and he smiled in her way. Elsie saw his smile and shook her head and thought,‘This time that this guy is smiling in my way, I believe he has something on his sleeves. What’s he planning now?’As she was about to sit down, one elderly looking man looked in her way and said to her,“I don’t think you deserve the seat that you are about to sit on.”Elsie tilted her head to the side
While the love birds were chatting in the car as they drove, the police car was chasing after a land cruiser. The posh car was driving at top most speed as the car could take it as the police car chased after it. the cars went in circles through the city and the people wondered what was happening. Alternatively, a salon car was also being chased by another police car from the airport to the city, some people took their phones and videoed the chase while others just watched on.Two more posh cars joined the chase making the situation difficult to understand. One of the cars was being chased from the city one other from the airport and the two other posh cars were chasing after the one being chased from the city. The two cars that were being chased stopped at the same time and an older man got out his car with his hands in the air as he shouted,Let my family go, they have nothing to do with anything. I committed all the crimes. They had no hand in anything, the salon car attempted to m
He walked into the dark room, the only source of light was a bulb that was lit and shown a particular point in the room. And that was on the head of a man, he was a middle aged man and he was in prison clothes. The old but gentleman dressed in suit took lazy steps towards the man tied on the chair. He had a frown on his face but it was like the person that was tied in front of him did not matter to like the sand that he was stepping on.He stopped in front of the man and held his chin, the man groaned slightly and the old man smirked. The middle aged man didn’t look up at the man even though he was in pain and that seemed to have irritated the old man. He hissed and forced his head up shouting at him,“Darren Norman, are you sure that at this juncture, you still want to keep your dignity? You were just a dog that I wanted to use to get what I wanted, now that you couldn’t, do you still think that you are of importance to me?”Darren winced as he tried to open his eyes, when he could a
Elsie expected the gate to open but didn’t. Confused, she tried over and over again, she pressed on the remote several times in frustration and shouted,God damn it, don’t tell me that I chose the wrong remote.She looked back and the guard was a few steps away. When she felt that mission failed she heard a loud bang. The guard stopped and removed his gun in a swift, but then the gate started opened in a slow pace. At first she was shocked and had frozen in place until she heard footsteps behind her, she rushed out and saw a taxi parked right in front of her.Just as she was about to climb into the car, she heard him call her,Elsie, where are you going without me?She looked back at him and a tiny smile appeared on her face. She sat in the car and the car didn’t move, she remembered that she hadn’t told the driver to wait for anyone. And so, Elsie asked,I don’t remember telling you to wait for him, why are you still here?Oswald entered the car and answered her question,It’s becaus
Are you going to take them back?He asked again trying to get the answer undiluted. Asking the second time seemed to have irritated Oswald as, he glared at him and said to him,You seem to forget your place sometimes, I told you to separate personal relationship from work relationship. If you don’t stay in your lane, you will end up getting fired.Rod sneered and asked,And if I end up getting fired, will we still meet up and drink our asses off? After all your best friend had lost his job.You know that I am a busy person, and so, I wouldn’t have found the time. Oswald retorted looking directly on the laptop.Rod smiled and responded to him,You would really find the time as you have signed off everything that you own to Miss Elsie, what will you be doing but drinking in day light?Oswald snorted and looked at his watch then he said to Rod, I will be done looking through this in a few minutes and I will be going that old man for my wife.Rod smiled and said as if speaking to himself,
Elsie felt that he was being too rude and so, he slapped his hand shyly and glared at him. The old man stood up and said to her,Let me get out of here before you butcher me for talking to him.Elsie quickly stood up and quickly took her phone and then rushed out of the place. Mr. Alfred watched her leave silently and shook his head, when she wasn’t in sight, he said to him on the other end of the line,She’s gone, you can speak now.He heard a long sigh on the other end before he spoke,I know you are worried about Elsie, I know she has got some feelings for me and she isn’t alone. I treated her badly because I was looking elsewhere but when I finally looked at her, I knew that I didn’t want to lose her. If there’s something to say to her, let me be the one to say it.Mr. Alfred removed the phone from his ear and looked at, he shook his head and said to Oswald,Do not think that I will be fooled by your slow words. You ae saying if there’s something to be said, you will be the one to
Elsie woke up the next with a bright smile on her face. she stretched her body and felt pretty tired, she looked at the door way of the washroom and sighed begrudged. She shook her head and said to herself, I wonder if I would allow someone to wash me up if I had help. Since I won’t, I will have to help myself. A few minutes later, she heard a knock on her door and she heard someone say behind the door, Sir said, you can rest for the day. He wants you down in five minutes for dinner. Your phone is with him and he would be answering all your calls. Answer my calls? Elsie thought, she shrugged and was about to lay her head down once again when she thought, If he is going to answer my calls, does that mean all my calls? Including that of Oswald’s? She shook her head and rushed into the washroom, in five minutes she was out and running down the stairs. The old man was already seated at the table when she arrived, in front of him and beside his coffee cup plate were three phones. She
Dwight along with Hulda and Oswald sat at the dining table the next day, everyone ate in silence until Dwight spoke, “Bro, I never knew that you would do something like this in the name of love. When did you fall head over heels for Elsie?” “It’s sister in law for you. I don’t know when I fell for her but I know that I can’t live without her.” Hulda glared at Oswald, she snorted and with a little anger in her eyes, “You love her so much that you were ready to sacrifice your life for her. Did you forget the rest of us? Do we mean nothing to you? Your father left me just like that and you intended to abandon us too?” Oswald shook his head silently and answered, “Mrs. Crofts, I believe we don’t have that relationship, when you gave all your heart to your husband and forgot that you had children, none of us complained. I didn’t want to bring up this topic, I am sorry if you get hurt by my words. Now, I understand what it feels like to make someone your world and later get the feelin
It was already dawn when they arrived at the house, Sid and Aires along with Anna came along with them. Elsie saw her and hugged her saying, I’m so proud of you for handling everything for me. I couldn’t have done this without your help. Sid pouted and complained, It’s not like she was the only one who kept the company in pace since you were gone. How long were you gone anyways? Elsie nodded and was about to embrace them together but Aires stepped away and said, I don’t need a hug from you, I can’t believe that you did that by yourself. I had different mindsets about what could really happen to you but look at you. It seems you didn’t care about us at all, all you think about is Oswald. Now that you are back, what are you going to do? Elsie laughed out and patted him on his shoulder saying, I don’t remember the last time you spoke so many words aside from singing. You must have really be agitated, I know you must have been worried but look at me, I returned hearty and healthy.
Several men are brought out of the house, some on trailers and others held by the waist, some carried in the arms and some covered with cloths to their heads. Elsie’s happy expression turned sour and she glared at the man who looked on with an unbothered expression. The soldiers turned to take them all away but then Elsie felt angry at what the man had done. She sneered and shouted, Don’t take him away, let him see how I end his wickedness by burning all that he had earned for being this wicked. Watch on you old maggot as I turn everything including your mansion into ashes. The man gnashed his teeth and attempted to escape from the soldiers hold but he swept him off the floor with his leg and he landed straight to the ground on his face. Elsie laughed out and walked closer to him, Oswald tried to stop her but she didn’t even take a look back. When she got to him, she bent on one knee and held his head with a wicked expression on her face, she questioned, What? Did you think you wer
