All eyes were on Lindsey as she walked over and handed the document to Mrs. Grace. She smirked at Vanessa as she walked back on her seat. As if she suspected betrayal, she kept the whole backup plan arrangement to herself, she would have told Vanessa since she trusted her but Joyce stopped her. "This would do, You all can excuse us now to continue the evaluation and don't forget to pass down the bottles to our team," Mrs. Grace said and with that, they walked out of the room. Everyone stared at them as they walked out, all eager to know what had happened in there. "I'm sure they were disqualified," Cynthia chuckled. She glanced at Vanessa hoping to see a triumphant facial expression but she looked down. "That was a good save, I didn't know you could take care of things yourself," Keith smiled. "I'm not a child, I have been in far more severe situations than this," Lindsey said. "Let's just hope the board don't make an issue out of this," Keith said and Lindsey turned to him. "Wh
Audrey stared at Clara as she fought for her life. "Take it easy, you can't do anything," Audrey said. Clara stared at her, she opened her mouth to say something but couldn't. Tears rolled down from her eyes as she fell down and died. "Hmm, that was fun to watch," Audrey said and dialled her mother's number. "It's done," she said immediately the call connected. "Good, I would give the boys instructions on how to handle the rest, you should come over to Dubai," Carolyn said. "Dubai? But mother I need to stay back and be sure that things don't get out of hand and....""Enough Audrey," Carolyn shushed her before she could complete her sentence. "You have been there for years yet nothing, I had to deal with Sophia hoping you would come in but you stupidly allowed Lindsey to take the open spot," Carolyn sighed. "Book your ticket and come to Dubai, let's give our prey time to get comfortable," Carolyn said. "Okay, I would round up and come over as soon as possible," Audrey said before
Keith and Lindsey arrived in church together putting on the same and just as usual, all eyes turned to glance at them. The church service was something Lindsey was familiar with but Keith was a bit uncomfortable with everything, he hasn't attended church since his father died and he had to take up so many responsibilities despite being the youngest son. The sermon was all about love and affection amongst couples and the pastor kept using Keith and Lindsey as emphasis during his preaching. The elderly women in the church were pleased to see Lindsey and her husband coming to church together even though it has been more than a month they advised her to bring Keith to church. The two hours church service ended and as Lindsey and Keith were about to leave when Lindsey heard a familiar voice call her, she turned only to see Dr. Williams and a young pretty lady standing behind him. "Oh hi, I wasn't expecting to see you here today," Lindsey smiled looking from him to the young lady wonder
Lindsey Woke up the next morning to Audrey's text, She cringed staring deeply at her phone. "What is this about?" Lindsey frowned still staring at her phone. "What is what about?" Lindsey turned sharply towards the direction of the voice and saw Keith standing there, he wasn't putting on any shirt and had a towel around his waist. Lindsey blinked getting a hold of herself, "Nothing, just some...." She paused thinking of a perfect lie. "Some internet gossip," she added and Keith nodded his head."You need to get ready for the board meeting, it won't be good if we arrive late," Keith said, his eyes fixed on Lindsey who was staring at her phone. "Are you sure everything is okay?" He asked. "Yes..." Lindsey quickly hid the message in her private section. "Oh the board meeting, I totally forgot about that, I would just freshen up," Lindsey said before walking into the bathroom. Keith stared at the bathroom door for a while before shifting his gaze to Lindsey's phone, he knew something
Lindsey turned sharply at Keith wondering why he said that, she was trying to get out of the mess Clara created for her and as far as she know, she already discussed her ideas with the chairman who approved them. "What did you say?" Lindsey asked hoping she heard him wrongly. Vanessa smiled staring at the surprise look plastered on Lindsey's face as she stared at Keith. "Look Lindsey, I don't think it's a good thing to do now, what would the public say and breaking Warris out of Winslow....""Don't you trust your wife Keith?" Georgina chipped in. The last thing she wanted was for Keith to talk low of Lindsey in front of everyone especially the board of directors. "No, I trust her, I really do but Warris is a huge company and it's already in a national competition, taking it to a different group might affect our chances of winning the competition," Keith said. "No it won't because the group is still under Winslow Conglomerate, it's just an extension and perhaps in the nearer futur
"What?" All eyes turned to Georgina at the sound of her loud voice, she had escorted Chairman Winslow and Keith to the exclusive press gathering concerning the wine plagiarism before she received the call from the police. She smiled bowing apologetically to everyone before she stepped out of the room. "What are you saying?" Georgina asked. "We discovered a corpse at the Warris manufacturing site which is still under renovation, we ran an identity check and it came up with the name Clara, Clara Sandiego and she use to work at Warris," The policeman said. Georgina paused her lips thinking of what to say, "How come Clara's corpse ended up in the Warris manufacturing site? Did she commit suicide or what?" "So, what happened to her?" Georgina asked hoping that no member of the family has anything to do with it. "Well, we checked the surveillance camera and found out it was damaged...""Damaged?" Georgina asked stunned. "Yes, the date corresponds to the time of the fire incident," The
Audrey stared at her laptop stunned, she couldn't believe what her eyes were seeing. "Did mum dump..." Audrey sighed, she didn't know why she suddenly agreed, Lindsey was the one called the prime suspect but somehow she felt Keith would take the fall for her. "She should have just told me before doing it, doesn't she think at all?" Audrey thought staring deeply at Lindsey. The surprised look on her face was so visible, guess Georgina kept everything a secret from her. "Why are you suddenly feeling sorry for her and Keith, after everything they did to you," her subconscious screamed at her. "Or do you want me to remind you about the To do lost you found at Keith's office, he doesn't love you anymore so you don't have to feel sorry for him," her subconscious added. Audrey smirked nodding her head. "Yeah, they totally deserve that, I know what I want and I must get it," She said. "What did you say?" Lindsey asked stunned, her eyes fixed on Sharon. "I thought you should know everythi
Lindsey stared blankly at her wondering what she was doing there, she knew reporters would be out to get her after her interview with Sharon but how did Reporter Jane know she was there? "Wow, I really underestimated New York reporters, How did you know I would be here?" Lindsey asked and Reporter Sharon smiled. "She's covering the Ragusang Gallery event, The chairman called her, she has been working with the company, we were discussing the event arrangement before you drove in, I'm sorry, I know you don't want to meet with any reporter at the moment," Miss Mabel said. "I see... Then I should better excuse myself," Lindsey said and turned to leave but Miss Mabel stopped her. "Actually, it would be nice if you join the meeting, you are the CEO and vice president," Miss Mabel said politely"Also I was hoping I could have a private chat with you, I mentioned to your secretary that it's very important but I know you are busy to attend to everything all at once," Reporter Jane staring
Throughout the ride to Dior, Georgina kept stealing glances at Lindsey as her statement echoed in her head. She tried shaking it off but she just couldn't help but think about it.She knew Harry and Francis might not like Keith because he was named the third generation heir even though he was the last son but Georgina never thought the hatred would be so visible for another to see.She couldn't even blame Lindsey for speaking rudely to her, she was trying to look after her unborn baby, that's what every responsible mother would do.Minutes later, they arrived at Dior and they both alighted from the car and walked in. Walking into Dior, Georgina was stunned, she has never been to Dior so she didn't know what it looked like. Everywhere was coordinated and the staff bowed as they walked passed them."Good Morning ma'am," Ashley greeted bowing respectfully at them. She was shocked to see Georgina there that she wanted to ask but she re
Lindsey woke up the next day after a long night with Keith, they had decided to make love the previous night when they got back because the sooner Lindsey gets pregnant, the sooner the rumours about her dues off.Lindsey looked beside her hoping to see Keith beside her but he wasn't there, she frowned thinking about the last time she had woken up without seeing Keith there, he ended up having a terrible and scandalous day.She reached for her nightwear and wore it before sliding into her flip-flop. She made her way downstairs hoping to see Keith there since it was still early and Keith didn't leave any note to show that he wasn't home.On reaching downstairs, Lindsey heard the doorbell which Keith answered immediately. It wasn't long before the visitor spoke and Lindsey quickly recognized the voice to belong to Georgina."What's she doing here this early, I just hope nothing is wrong," Lindsey said as she made to walk into the sitt
Lindsey turned towards the direction of the voice hoping it was who she thought it was and lo and behold, Leen was standing right in front of her with a smile plastered on her face."Leen?" Lindsey called as tears dropped from her eyes. "Yeah girlfriend, it's me," Leen smiled."God Leen," Lindsey said and quickly hugged her. Leen smiled hugging her back, she missed Lindsey but she knew it wasn't as much as Lindsey missed her. At least she got the opportunity to see Lindsey's picture on the internet but she just zoned out without a word to her or anyone."It's really you Leen, I have missed," Lindsey cried hugging her even tighter. Keith stood in a corner staring at them with a smile plastered on his face. Looking at Lindsey and Leen reconnect after so many months, it made her remember his friendship with Miguel. The truth was that he didn't even know what exactly went wrong, they just fell apart and never spoke to each other ever again. It's be
Silence was what followed next after Chairman Winslow made his statement. Lindsey glanced at Georgina before shifting her gaze to Keith only to meet his eyes fixed on her. They both maintained eye contact for a while as if trying to ask each other if they were comfortable with the whole suggestion."Don't just sit there and stare at each other, say something," Chairman Winslow said breaking off the eye contact. Lindsey shifted her gaze to him, she wasn't sure if she was ready to become a mother just yet, she loved the idea of getting pregnant and giving birth but those were just the tip of the iceberg compared to the kind of responsibility she had to face as a mother."We will do it," Keith said making Lindsey turn sharply at him. She wasn't sure why Keith changed his mind so suddenly, the last time she checked, he didn't want to have anything to do with him."Okay, Lindsey do you agree?" Chairman Winslow asked looking at her. He was trying to
Audrey burst into laughter immediately after Sharon sighed out of the talk show. "What's this?" Audrey asked looking at her laptop. "Did I just watch a soap opera or something?" She asked again. The ending wasn't just what she expected. She wasn't sure what she was expecting but she knew for sure that the way the talk show had ended wasn't just the ending she was expecting."Do you think this is the time to shine your teeth like a fool," Audrey turned towards the door and saw her mother Carolyn. She didn't need to ask her if she was okay since her facial expression and the tone of her voice already answered that."Pack your back, we are going back to New York," Audrey raised a brow at her wondering where that was coming all of a sudden."Mum, I thought you said you were planning something and that I don't have to lift a finger?" Audrey asked just to be sure she remembered correctly what Carolyn had said."Do you think I don't know
Lindsey felt a cold chill run down her spine, she never had any abortion like Tamarah had accused her but she knew where that story was leading, her past was going to be brought to the limelight and it wasn't going to be good for her."Why are you suddenly quiet Lindsey? Before you think of suing Nancy, why don't you first confirm if you are truly a woman?" Tamarah spat angrily."Wait, we are getting lost here, what abortion are you talking about?" Jenna asked. Sharon didn't bother to ask anything since she already heard the story from Nancy, she just relaxed in her seat watching to know how the drama unfolds."Lindsey, Did you have an abortion for your husband because you weren't ready to be a mother?" Jenna asked again making Tamarah let out a soft mockery laugh."For her husband, Jenna trust me, it would have been a lot better if Keith was the one responsible for the pregnancy," Tamarah began making everyone interested in what s
"Oh my God, this is going to be more fun than I thought it would be," Audrey said as she typed in the comment. She was watching the talk show from her laptop and so far she was enjoying the way Lindsey's sister was speaking ill of her but never did she imagine that Lindsey would come to the show."Did Georgina ask her to come?" Audrey thought munching on her popcorn, she had anticipated that the interview would be fun so she bought the popcorn."Hell no, Georgina can't do that, she has a reputation for handling issues herself and she won't be stupid enough to leave a pressuring issue like this to Lindsey to settle," Audrey shook her head negatively."Well, whichever one it is, as long as she ends up making a fool of herself, I don't really care," Audrey scoffed looking at her laptop. There were two top reporters on the talk show and the outcome of the show would trend for days especially if Lindsey fails to prove the controversial rumour wrong.
Lindsey woke up the next morning feeling light-headed, she looked around the room and frowned wondering how she got there. The last thing she remembered was drinking with Miguel.She moaned feeling a sharp pain, "Gosh Lindsey, why did you drink too much?" Lindsey asked. She turned looking for her phone, seconds later, she found it and made to reach for it but then she saw a note which was very obvious that Miguel had dropped it.Lindsey smiles reading the text over and over again, "Isn't Miguel way better than Keith, gosh it would have been perfect if the Flyheart family had brought in the proposal first," Her subconscious said making Lindsey smile harder but soon enough she snapped herself out of it, reminding herself that she was still married and can't afford another scandal.She dropped the note and picked up her phone. "God dammit," Lindsey whined, it was already 8:30 am and her phone was still in flight mode. She had missed Sharon's text
Joyce turned sharply at Lindsey, she didn't need to be told who Lindsey had called. "I'm not sure the chairwoman would be happy about this," Joyce said."No one asked you, I suggest you talk only when you are talked to or asked to talk," Lindsey fired turning fiercely at her.Joyce quickly bowed her head apologetically, she knew Lindsey was angry and was transferring aggression at her. "I'm sorry ma'am," Joyce said.Lindsey sneered reaching for her phone, she had ended the call on Sharon immediately she said why she called so she thought Sharon was the one calling her back but looking at the caller ID, she rolled her eyes answering the call."I'm guessing you must have seen the tabloid?" Lindsey said."Hmm, don't think too much about it," Keith said staring into his iPad. He had seen it when he called Lindsey that morning but since Lindsey didn't mention anything about it, he too decided not to say anything about
