I never negotiate
Ed heard Frank’s roar as he was standing close and knitted his brows further ‘Frank got angry with them when he wanted to hide something from them and didn’t know how.’
“Give the phone to her.” Ben pursed his lips. ‘How could he not know Frank’s quirk?’
“How can I do that?” Frank rolled his eyes.
“Just like how you picked her phone yesterday.” Ben didn’t leave him any face.
He heard Lara’s voice in the background “Is it Ben?”
“Give the phone to Lara. Ed’s been trying to reach her.” Ben knew Frank would play tag and then hang up pretending to be annoyed. This was his usual strategy.
“Okay.” Frank walked over to hand the phone to Lara.
Ben covered the mouthpiece “Ask her where Dana is?” and extended the phone to a totally confused Ed putting the phone on speaker.
“Ed” Lara cal

Jayden took off his headphone and connected the system to a speaker. The conversation from the other end floated in through the speaker-“Boss will give us the signal.”“I think I will go over and meet this vixen before sending her off…... She must be feisty.” A vulgar laugh followed.“You better not offend the boss.

“Chief” Ben and Ed called to Daniel once everyone settled down in the old Manor house.“Why don’t you stay the night? It’s already too late.” Daniel asked looking at their tired faces.“Chief we will come back and deal with the mess.”“I am not worried about the mess.” Daniel shook his head.“Chief, he is running off to the hospital.” Tyrell smirked.“Oh… yes…yes…” Daniel rubbed his forehead “How could I forget? Go... go…”“I am leaving Jefferson in your heads.” Ben looked at Tyrell “Are you heading back tonight?”“Nope. I will crash here. And don’t worry...

Dana woke up 5 hours after Steve left. Ed had just stepped out to get them some coffee and lunch. Dana opened her eyes lazily but shocked to see an unfamiliar ceiling and environment; She sat up in fear but relaxed when she heard Lara’s shriek- “You’re awake?” Lara ran up to Dana and hugged her without care “You scared the living daylights out of me.” “Why are you being so exaggerated? Are these theatrics to make me feel guilty for oversleeping?” Dana rolled her eyes but frowned as she saw the IV line on her hand and realized that she was in a hospital. Lara took in her reactions and sighed “I wish… my dear Dana… I really wish you were oversleeping.” She turned to Dana with a sly smile “Next time you want to oversleep just tell me…. I promise not to nag or lecture…. Don’t use this method ever again.” “What’s wrong with me?” Dana asked in a whisper. “You had a high fever and were in coma for three days.” Lara hugged Dana “I have never been so scared.” Dana smiled sheepishly with

Dana stirred calling out to Ben in a whisper “Ben...”“Baby, I am here… Baby wake up…” Ben gently coaxed.Dana opened her eyes to see Ben looking at her with a face full of concern; Contrary to the first time Dana woke up from coma, this time she was aware of the nightmare she had previously tucked away the memories as a coping strategy. She jumped into his embrace hugging him and cried “I … I thought I would never see you again…. I ….”“It’s all over. I am here.” Ben gently caressed her back holding her in his embrace and coaxing her gently. It took Dana awhile to calm her emotions, but she refused to come out of Ben’s embrace. She laid nestled in his embrace listening to his powerful heartbeats, the only sound that would calm the worries from her nightmare.“Are you hungry?”“No” Dana refused hugging Ben tighter however her tummy refused to comply with her lie “Gggghrrhhhh”“How about we eat something first? I bought some chicken soup.” Ben gently sat her up against the bed and fed

Sarah sat in a pile of clothes in Dana’s bedroom watching Lara rummage through Dana’s cupboards.“I am not wearing a dress, its way too cold for me.” Dana sat resentfully on the other side.“This one.” Lara pulled a casual yet smart suit.“The sleeves are short. I will be cold.” Dana pouted. While most women would prefer style, Dana preferred comfort. Alexa watched with a curious expression from the dark. ‘This woman never behaved according to commonsense.’“We will be indoors, and the temperature adjusted.” Sarah tried to be the peacemaker.Dana twisted her lips eyeing Sarah suspiciously.“That settles it.” Lara placed the set on the bed.“Are you sure you can’t come?” Sarah looked imploringly at Lara.“Positive unless you guys want Cheryl to take my head in a plate to the advertisers.” Lara pouted “I have taken a week off at short notice, that woman would have a heart attack.”Cheryl came to pick Lara up while Dana was in the shower. She looked curiously at Sarah who was half lying

Chelsey was over the moon. She only expected to raise enough to start the foundation. But now they had more than enough to complete the entire project and fund the administration for 1 year.She squeezed Carrie hands “We did it.”Carrie and Tempest were no different, they were overwhelmed with emotions. They just finished transferring all the funds to the construction company with an agreement to start construction tomorrow. The previous agreement was for the foundation to start once they pay an initial deposit with whatever they raised today; the construction company would start work as goodwill and they could pay in installments. However, the collection today was more than enough to pay the amount in full. Arthur contacted the construction company as soon as they reached the threshold and was further surprised with their generosity of giving a 20% discount. They agreed to sign and pay on the spot.“My dear patrons.” Chelsey calmed her emotions and walked back on stage with a balance

Alexa hurried to the car and called in an enquiring manner “Madam??”“Holy cross hospital”Alexa reached the hospital in minutes breaking at least 10 traffic rules and several honking cars.Dana whispered the way to Steve’s room.“Steve” Dana called weakly as they entered. Steve raised his head to see a mortified Sarah and a bleeding Dana.“What the ….”“Sew me up first.” Dana smiled weakly “Let's swear later.”Steve frowned looking at the wound and got to work quickly. Luckily the wound was superficial.“Steve, take a look at Alexa. She’s hurt too.” Dana sat up once Steve had bandaged the wound.“I am fine.” Alexa pursed her lips. She was not used to people fussing about her. This was just a small wound. All she needed was a bottle of alcohol and forceps and she would be good as new. ‘This stupid woman was almost killed, and she has time to worry about everyone else’. Alexa shivered at the thought of if she was a minute late or if the shard had pierced a little deeper.“Young lady, t

“Oh…” Dana covered her neck and stood up to run for cover. Ben pulled her back into arms “Baby, you really think that such a silly lie would suffice?” He narrowed his eyes as he stared into her eyes. Dana blushed and pushed him out of embarrassment “You broke your promise.” She pouted childishly. “I didn’t… Hur… hur…. hur…” Ben laughed “Let’s talk later.” “Hymph!” Dana turned her head but winced with pain. “Baby…” Ben frowned “Shall we go to the hospital?” “No” “But this seems to be bleeding.” Lara got up and checked to see what the status was … “That’s it. Let’s go.” She pulled Dana with a frown. “No.” Dana childishly held on to Ben. “Mr Adalase, you better get your sorry ass up or I will kick you out.” Lara spoke furiously. Her voice wavered as she was scared. Ben pursed his lips; He didn’t want to contradict Dana; he was also taken back by Lara’s words. No one had ever spoken to him in that tone. He looked down at Dana’s neck and realized the reason behind Lara’s reckles
