He heard a knock and he hurried to the door. As he opened the door, he sighed in relief as he saw Jessica standing in front of the door, dressed in a long sleeve black jacket and blue jeans trousers. "Jess," he called slowly as he looked at her pale face which was bowed a little. "What's wrong? You haven't been taking my calls," he said as she walked into the room.She gulped and wiped the tears that escaped her eyes. He stood behind her and watched her wipe her face. He became curious and he moved to her front."What is wrong with you? Are you okay?" He asked curiously as he looked into her face.She gulped again and the words became stuck in her throat. She didn't know where to start from and she began to count her fingers."Jess," he called as he placed his two hands on her shoulders"I'm..pregnant" she muttered hastily as she raised her face to look at him.Silence fell in and no sound could be heard in the room as he looked into her face with their bodies two meters apart.His f
"What do you suggest we do now?" Tracy asked as they both walked into the car."I think it's time to let Julius in. I don't think he knows about this yet," Juliet replied as she looked out of the car window"That will be nice. But right now, I have a case to attend in court and I think you will have to speak to Julius alone," she said and Juliet sighed"Come on, let's get out of here," she urged as she ignited the car.**She sat in the car watching the people moving to and fro at the department gate. The atmosphere was cloudy and it looked like it was about to rain.She saw him walking towards the car, dressed in his usual long brown coat. He opened the car door and stepped into the car."Hey," he called as he looked at her face"Hi," she greeted as she leaned on the car seat tiredly"I'm sorry for keeping you waiting. I needed to round up a few stuff" he explained and she nodded"It's fine. I'm here because of Eden," she said as she looked at him"He hasn't been taking my calls and I
The sun shone radiantly and the chirps of birds could be heard around the garden. The smell of fresh flowers filled the air as a Cool breeze swept across the trees and flowers."How's she doing?" He asked as he poured whiskey into his glass.Julius smiled as he sipped from his drink."She's fine. I took her out for dinner last night," he said and Eden chuckled"You two are getting along easily" he said as he sipped from his drink"I guess we both enjoyed the dinner though," he said and they both smiled."You know, Juliet is the most amazing woman I've ever come across. I've never seen a woman so concerned about the welfare of her family" he saidHe sighed and looked out of the garden."Eden, don't you think it's high time you do what makes her happy?" He asked"It's not as easy as you think. I can't abandon the gang" he saidJulius smiled and licked his lips"And so, you're not planning to have a family for the rest of your life?" He asked"No. The gang is my family. You guys are my fa
He heard a knock on the door and he sat up on the bed. He ran his palm into his rough hair and let out a sigh.He stood up and walked over to the door. As he opened the door, he froze for a moment as he saw Jessica standing in front of the door, dressed in a black velvet gown that stopped above her knees.She gulped as she saw his face and her eyes narrowed to his bare chest. She lowered her gaze to the floor and he couldn't help but gaze at her for a moment with his eyes full of emotions."May I?" She asked after a few seconds of silence"Yeah..um..yeah.." he stammered as he made way for her to come in.She walked into the room and he followed behind her. She stood in the middle of the room and he stopped behind her as she turned to face him. His heart flinched as he saw her pale face which was cast by depression. He felt guilty for a moment and he gulped."I'm here to let you know of my decision" she said and his heart skipped."You know, the other day, you let me walk away without a
He marched into the foyer angrily with his feet storming the floor heavily. He unbuttoned his dress carelessly as he stormed up the stairs with the boys watching him from the foyer.Pedri stood up from the bar where he sat and followed after him immediately."Boss," he called as he walked into the room and found him pacing about."How did it go?" He asked"I need to clear my head. It didn't go well" he said as he paced around the room.Pedri walked to the fridge and brought a bottle of whiskey which he quickly poured in a glass."Here," he said as he handed the glass to him.As he sipped from the glass, his nerves relaxed and he began to walk slowly."How did it go?" He asked again"He said all sorts of things to me. If it weren't for the fact that his daughter and I were together, can he really withstand my presence? Who dares speak to the king in such a manner?!" He thundered "No one. Right now, we need to think of the next decision to make. Maybe he needs to be taken care of the ot
He walked into the large room which looked more like a hall. In the room was a large table and chairs on both sides of the table. Men in Black suits could be seen seated on both sides of the table with their attention focused on him as he walked into the room ardently.He took his seat in the king's chair at the middle of the table and the men stood up to do obeisance to him.He sighed and looked at their faces as they all sat down."You all know how I've devoted my life serving this gang all through the years. With enough sacrifices and doggedness, I've been able to pull the gang up to this level it is today. Without the support of you guys, none of this would have been possible.With a heavy heart, I wanna announce to you all that I would be moving away for sometime. I'm leaving to somewhere far away and I will be back after a long period of time" he announced and they all began to murmur.He kept silent and looked at their faces as they kept on murmuring."For now, I'm handing over
He heard his phone ringing on the bed as he walked into the room with Spider and Pedri following behind him. "Hey baby, are you set?" He asked as he picked up the call"Yes, I'm about to get out. Lucia is out with my luggage" Jessica's voice came through"Alright, I'll be out soon" he said and hung up."Boss, you're looking good," Pedri commented as he adjusted the collar of Eden's white short sleeve which he wore under denim blue jeans."Thanks," he said with a smile. "The new King" he said as he turned to Spider who was behind Pedri."Boss," he said with humility as he walked over to him."I'll miss you guys" he said with a smile "We will miss you too," Pedri said"Um…Sara's downstairs looking for you. You didn't let her know you were moving out" Spider said"Oh, yeah that's right. Um…I'll speak to her" he said as he walked over to the bed and zipped his red box."I'll be back, let me meet her downstairs" he said as he hurried out while Pedri followed after him.Spider watched as t
He raised his head up from the table as he heard the door open. He felt relieved as he saw Juliet and Julius walking into the room hastily."Eden," she cried as she walked over to the table"Juliet" he muttered sadly as he saw how emotional she looked."How did you get in?" He asked as he looked at their faces"They won't dare resist us entry, considering our status in the state" she said and Julius nodded"What is going on Eden? How did it get to this?" He asked in surprise"Seriously, I don't know what's going on. We were at the boarding area when the officers approached me, saying they found 2.5kg cocaine in my possession" he relatedJuliet sighed and licked her lips"How did it get into your bag?" She asked"I don't know!" He yelled"Calm down," Julius said as he looked at his face"Are you sure you don't know how it got in there?" Juliet asked again"Are you suspecting I put it there?" He asked angrily and she kept silent."I don't do drugs. And if I'm to smuggle drugs out of the
