In a flashy building, everywhere is painted white and golden and every item in the room is either in a golden form or as pure as jade. Doors and windows and curtains are in a golden color as well as the chairs and tables. And in the middle of the room is a giant desk with twenty chairs beside it and at the far ends are a chair each. These two chairs are painted in gold while the other forty are in white colors. On one of the golden chair sat an old man with a golden walking stick in his hands. His hair is grey but his eyebrows were dark as well as his moustache and his beard.Three young men sat side by side and were looking at this old man. After some minutes of silence, the old man cleared his throat and looked at the young men and then said to them,We haven’t met for a while now, you all are still looking green while I am looking gray. I had assigned you to look for people to join us. I hope you have done a good job with itThe young men nodded their heads and each pushed a file t
Oswald walked back to his seat in a thud sound, Rod looked at him from the floor and Wonder the reason behind his devastation.Is it because I don’t want to agree to his request? Is it that important for me to deceive these ladies? Is it not wrong to do this? Oswald would never do wrong than to ask someone to do it. What is the situation that he doesn’t want me to know?Rod sighed and said to Oswald,Alright, I will do this as long as you are ready to tell me the reason behind it.Oswald looked at him with the edges of his eyes and only blinked without a word. Rod looked at him dumbfounded and he continued,Okay, even if you don’t tell me, I think I will find out sooner or later. So let’s do this.Oswald nodded and walked back to him with the sorrow still in his eyes. Rod looked at him in confusion, when Oswald touched his legs, he could finally feel his legs. Rod stood up and dusted his trousers, Oswald smirked and said to him,Stop that act, you know very that there’s no dust in her
As Oswald and Rod thought about the matters arising, they heard a knock on the door and they both looked at each other. Oswald nodded at Rod and he walked to the door and opened it, the secretary of Mr. Alfred appeared at the door and nodded towards Rod saying,I am here to deliver a letter personally to Mr. Crofts. I am Jacob, the secretary of Mr. Alfred. I hope I can meet him.Rod looked back at Oswald and he nodded in agreement, Rod opened the door widely and spoke,Please come in, he is in.Jacob nodded his head and walked through the door, he saw Oswald sitting on the couch and walked to him. When he was a meter away from Oswald, he stood up and greeted,You are welcome Mr. Jacob, how may I be of help to you?With an indifferent expression, Jacob handed the file in his hands towards Oswald without speaking. Oswald took the file and said to Jacob,Let’s sit down first.Jacob nodded his head and sat down but then as soon as he sat down, he spoke,I won’t be taking too much of your
She laid in bed fast asleep, the sun shone through the curtains and the sound of cars passed by. But she was out if the world away from all the noise and the sunshine. She dragged her body up after she heard a sound in her house, her eyes didn’t want to open but she forced them to open. She looked at the time on the clock on the wall and it was past eight AM.She jumped on her feet and rushed to the bathroom, while she was pasting her teeth, she thought about the days and realized it was Saturday,Ahh, I should have slept more. But, what was that noise that woke me up? Is someone here in my house?She rushed out with her brush in her mouth, two heads appeared in her hall sitting on the couch. They didn’t turn to look at her when she rushed in, but concentrated on the movie they were watching.Oh, so, it was the movie that had that sound.She walked towards them and called,Sid, Aires, what are you both doing here, so early in the morning? You people have got nothing to do?She expecte
Elsie changed into a jumpsuit and swept her hair into a ponytail and wore a black suit on navy jumpsuit. She changed her half shoe into a full shoe and stepped out, the two men still looked in the door way until she joined them by the car. They both looked at her a little surprised but she smiled and said to them,It’s either you protect me today or I do? Since you are dressed casually, I thought I should be your bodyguard for this day. I hope you both appreciate this wholeheartedly.Aires sighed and came out of the car, she joined them and they drove away. Another car drove after them as soon as they left and a woman was seen shouting after the other car with gifts in her hands. But it was too late for her, the car had rushed after the sports car.She cursed and stumped her feet and hailed a taxi.Sid drove to the largest mall in the city and stopped, he looked at Elsie and said to her,There are lots of fun games, restaurants, shopping and you can even cook for yourself in here. We
Elsie saw the back of the man closing the door and she shouted at him,Don’t you know that this is the Ladies room? Why are you entering and locking the door behind you? If you dare try anything here …Oswald turned towards her and she almost bit on her tongue.You … what are you doing in here?Oswald smiled in her way and said to her with a smirk on his face,What do you think I came in here to do? You broke your agreement and made my company suffer such a lose and you still ask me what I want to do?Elsie looked at him with her eyebrows kneaded and the corner of her lips raised and asked him,You don’t think you can scare me with those words do you? You don’t want them to see you right? That’s why you came in here, I heard you to the company but couldn’t meet me. I wanted to meet you as well.Oswald smiled and asked,Why did you want to meet me? You know, a man and a woman meeting in this kind of place raises so much thoughts and these thoughts, I want o get rid of, so why don’t we
Oswald removed his palm slowly and cleared his throat, he looked away from her confused eyes and said,There’s nothing that you need to pay for, it’s my fault that I couldn’t meet up to your company’s standards that resulted to dissatisfaction and it led to the annulment.Elsie’s eyes popped open and she held his head and turned it to her and asked,What the hell do you think you are saying? You mustn’t think about it not to talk about doing it.Oswald removed her palms from his face with a sigh and said to her with a smile,You keep touching me, I don’t think you should be doing that when we are actually alone in this lane.Elsie smirked and asked him,Since when have I had an effect on you? Or are you only pushing me away! I thought we were friends.Oswald looked at her closely in her eyes and said in a calm voice,Yes, you have an effect on me, and I don’t know when it started, but I know it’s there now. I am not pushing you away because I don’t like you touching me but because you
Sid looked away and said looking at the security man,I think I have proven my identity, is it enough for your u to let me in?The security man moved away from the door in a flash and bowed his head while apologizing,I am sorry sir, forgive my ignorance.But then Sid and Aires were already in the room and commanding the other man inside to help them search. A minute later, they saw her existing the room with a man in a black suit. He made sure the camera couldn’t capture his face. But then they were marveled that Elsie didn’t look like she was forced to go out. Sid and Aires looked at each other and gave up on the security camera when they saw that she was out if the mall with the man.They rushed out of the room and decided to go and search for her outside. On their way, Sid call Mr. Alfred and explained things to him. He was drinking his tea and looking through a magazine when Sid called. When he heard what he said, he stood up immediately and threw the cup to the floor. Then he sh
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
