Adil. “Progress?!” I asked looking up at Jerry who was standing in front of me.He stretched out his tablet to me, I took it from him, my eyes skimming through the words on the screen as he spoke to me.“I’ve sent out the VIP invitations to the people you’ve asked and sent other invitations out,” he said and I nodded slowly, my eyes still on the screen.“Okay, this is real progress,” I muttered finally looking up at him and stretching his tablet back to him.“This means we’re right on track for Saturday,” I asked and he nodded firmly in reply,“The only things left for that day is the Setup at the event, I’ve sent out a memo to all staff to be there as early as six in the morning to set up everything,” he finally concluded and I nodded slowly in reply.“That’s good,” I whispered, I exhaled deeply and slowly leaned in my chair,“No issue from My mother?!” I asked and he shook his head slowly.“None at all, just a little tantrum about the VIP guest list ,” he said, I nodded slowly and
Adil.*FlashBack*Five years ago.I slowly turned to look at Tehilla where she lay brawling loudly, I increased my pace in making her baby formular.Munutes had turned into hours, hours into days, days into weeks and weeks into months and I haven’t heard a single word from Janelle.She left without a trace and left me to take care of a new born all by myself, with no experience at all.The first few weeks was hell, I had to stop work to take care of her well, my savings was running out very fast and I was rapidly going broke, I slowly turned to look at Tehilla where she lay still crying heavily softly tugging at her hair.I had even gotten better at taking care of her, I was already getting a hang of what her cries meant and how to take care of her well. I gently carried the baby formular to her bed, craddled her in my arms and placed the feeding bottle in her mouth, her tears gradually subsided as she gently sucked on her bottle.A knock suddenly came on the door, I paused and slow
Adil.“So how is work going?! Everything under control?! anniversary event is in two days,” Grandpa asked, I slowly looked up at him and nodded slowly while still cutting on my steak.“Everything is in place,” I replied shortly, just as I was about to say something, Becky interrupted me,“Did you hear of your grand son’s plan for the anniversary?! I just knew after he ran away from home, nothing much could come from him,” she said her voice coming out soft and smooth with a small sigh, my head snapped towards her immediately, the veins in my neck becoming visible, she sure knows how to irk the hell out of me,“How I chose to run my management shouldn’t bother you,” I snorted in replied, she scoffed as she gently stabbed her steak and raised it to her mouth chewing gently, she picked up her glass of water, drank from it and slowly turned to me.“Where were you when I was doing everything?! Frolicking around and making babies, and now that everything is in place, you want to ruin it wit
Janelle.“Hey look at what I found,” Bella said to me as she walked into my office, I slowly looked up at her and took the tablet she stretched out to me.I took the laptop from her and stared into it, “That’s the shell company Alyssa told us about that John invested into,” she said and I nodded slowly already seeing the correlation,“I also found it as one of the shell company under Jeremy Max, he uses it to keep money but it doesn’t actually exist,” she said, “There’s a probability that he killed his brother because of this,” she said, I slowly looked up at her be handed back her tablet to her.“We have to confirm this,” I said and she nodded slowly, I slowly leaned Into my chair and looked across the table into her eyes,“We’ll do what we were supposed to do at first, he died of poisoning right?! I’ll speak to every maid that worked in his house,” I said, her eyes went wide as she pulled the chair in front of her out and took her seat.“It was a big house, how do you intend to m
JanelleLater that evening..“How did finding your mother’s maid go?!” I asked Adil is I pulled the chair in front of the vanity mirror and took my seat, I gently unwrapped the towel from my head and plugged in my hair driver,“I’ll help you,” Adil muttered as he hopped off the bed and walked to me, he took the hair dryer from me and began to dry my hair massaging my scalp slowly in the process, my eyes went shut and I enjoyed his hands on my scalp.“Hmm, I love you baby,” I muttered slurry as he dried my hair.“Apparently Becky did not just have her contact info for no reason, when we got there, her neighbors told us that she just moved before day break,” my eyes flung open and I slowly turned and looked up at him,“Oh my God,” I whispered, “Do you need me to help?!” I asked, he shook his head and continued drying my hair, I exhaled deeply and turned back to look into the mirror.“You already have a lot on your plate, besides I have a private investigator helping out already,” he sa
12:30pm Janelle.“She’s fine,” Adil whispered behind me, I slowly lifted up my hands from her face and slowly turned to look at Adil, “How are you so relaxed,” I muttered turning to him, he gently took my hands in his and pulled me up, I relunctantly stood up and he wrapped his hands around my waist and pulled me closer into him, “Honey, you heard the doctor it’s nothing serious, just cough and cold,” He muttered, I slowly turned to look at her where she lay on the bed, she seemed fine, her temperature had dropped to normal but she still looked weak.“I’m just worried,” I muttered, he gently cupped my face in his hands and turned me to face him, “Relax, this is not her first fever,” he muttered, I exhaled deeply and just as I was about speak, my phone began to ring in my pocket, I gently pulled it out and he slowly let go of me, I nodded slowly and walked away towards the entrance,“Hi, Bella” I muttered and placed my phone in my ear,“What’s up?! I’ve been expecting your call al

Adil.4:30pm …“Thank you,” Janelle muttered as I pulled the door open and she stepped out, just as soon as I closed the door behind her, another car zoomed into the compound and parked closed up behind us.We both exchanged glances as the headlight went off and we slowly turned back to look at the car, the driver side slowly went open and Enzo stepped out, i stepped up immediately,I turned to Janelle and she looked equally as surprised to see him, I already decided to not meddle in whatever annoying friendship they might have, I trust Janelle enough to that but that still die t mean that I want to see them together.He slowly slammed the door shut behind him, tucked his hands into his pocket and walked up to us.“Hi Janelle,” he muttered, I scoffed raising the corner of his lips irritatingly, the audacity of this guy! If he wanted to see Janelle, he could have done that, but no he chose to come into my house to talk to my wife!I felt Janelle’s grip on my wrist and I slowly turned t
