CLARA I was panting seriously and waited patiently to see my son. When Damien's car came to halt and I hoped to see Benjamin but they came back empty handed. I began to wail and scream. "Where is my son?"Nancy held me and told me to calm down because Damien had called the police to mount their guards and search for President Flores’ grandchild. My father in-law was Just taking it easy on himself because of his health. After the accident, his health hasn't been stable. From one sickness to another. The accident really shook his entire body system which resulted in different health issues because of his age. Some of his body parts were already visibly weak. "Hey, stop making that noise. The kidnappers only need money but we are waiting for them to call us and demand for the ransom." I don't even know what to think. I was in my room when Paul called me and showed me my son. "Paul! So you are the one with my son.""Yes, you thought I wouldn't find out about his school?""Please, d
MICHIGAN I was busy documenting some important information that I couldn't do yesterday into a file because I was so busy yesterday when my Secretary knocked on my door. "Come in," I said.My head was still bent and I didn't raise it to see who it was. When I noticed that the person had been standing without saying anything. I paused. "Yes, Gloria, how may I help you?" "Ma'am, you have an email." "Did you check it?" "Not yet Ma'am.""Why not? Go ahead and find out what was sent, print it and bring it to me if it is urgent. As you can see I am very busy.""Yes Ma'am." She left my office. Gloria has been working with me since I started this company. I haven't had any issues with her and I trust her so much. She is just from a poor background like me although her mother is still alive. But she is the one sustaining the family. When I interviewed her, I saw potential in her but then she was scared that she might not get the job. She wasn't looking neat but I noticed how far she w
MICHIGAN"Oh! Gloria." I picked up the call. "Good morning ma, I haven't seen you in the office. Hope there is no problem?" "Not at all my darling. I needed to rest today because of my trip tomorrow. Just take care of the company. If there is any problem, let me know.""Alright ma, I wish you safe travels." "Thank you." I hung up. Hmm, Gloria will not stop to amaze me. We still have good people that think of the well being of others. Anytime I decided that I was going to be late, Gloria would surely call me just to check up on me. But other staff will never try it. Well, that is not a problem to me. I went to the living room and saw my breakfast on the table. Why didn't the cook inform me of this earlier? I called her and asked her why she didn't call me to tell me that the food was ready. "I am sorry ma, but I knocked countless times on your door but there was no response. I decided not to disturb your sleep." Oh! I must have slept so deeply. It wasn't my fault, it was the n
CLARA I overheard my husband talking about going on a trip to another country. I think I will have to use the opportunity to settle some things with Paul. But I need to collect some money from Damien. My father in-law will also be going back to the presidential villa today. I can't just wait to stay alone. I was still in my thoughts when Damien came into the room. I expected that he would be preparing for his trip tomorrow but I didn't see any signs. He made a phone call right there in my presence. "Austin, where are you right now?""Okay, please you need to go home so that you can prepare for the conference."I was relieved because I thought he was only looking for someone that would follow him for the trip but my thoughts were wrong. "Yes, I need a representative and I chose you to go for the conference while I watch virtually if I am lucky. Please, your ticket will be ready by evening." I was destabilized. I never expected to hear that from him. Damien doesn't miss any confe
CLARA"Each time I have fun with the lady, I will pay her two hundred and fifty thousand dollars." Wow! That is a huge amount. If I am the one, by the time he plays me more than ten times in a month, I would have gotten enough money. I don't know if he will feel bad if I volunteer to do the job. No! I will not try it, else I will lose my respect in this family. Maybe I will have to sign a contract with him based on this. "So, if I should bring a lady to you, how much will I get as my payment?" My father was surprised and then he laughed. "I never knew you had this business idea. Wow! If you need payment, then there is no problem." You can imagine, so he expected me to fold my hands without having a share? Your son doesn't even give me much and you think I will let this opportunity slide away? Now way! "So are we making an agreement based on getting my own share every time you pay her?""Huh? Clara, you really want to punish me. This is not what I expect from you." "Father, you
CLARA I smiled within myself because I know I have gotten her attention. She must obey me. This is what Paul has been doing to me and I keep spending a lot, yet nothing has changed. "So have you agreed to my terms?" "Yes, I have agreed," she said. "Good! So right now you have to prepare because I am taking you with me to meet my father in-law at home." Rose got up and rushed to freshen up. I was very pleased with myself. When she came out prepared, she was looking hot and stunning. "Perfect outfit." Rose has been my friend right from high school days, only that she grew bigger than my size. She has very big boobs that a man's hand can't cover. She has a big ass too. If she wears a gown, her back side must take up a big quantity making the gown look shorter than the front. We drove out of her house and arrived at mine. "Welcome to my house, make yourself comfortable." Rose sat down while I went to get President Flore from his room. "Father, she is here." "Oh! She is here?"
CLARA "So, are you ready today?" "Sure, why not? It's my job and I have to carry it out with all pleasure and joy." That's my girl. She knows the job very well. Because of this singular act of hers, I decided to forgive her. I know the reason why I chose her was because she was the only single friend that is not yet married. The rest are in their husband's house. But I never knew that she was this bad. If I had known that she is into this part time, I would have been disturbing her for money. So why was she claiming innocence earlier as if she was only having an affair with her boyfriend. They were about to leave when I reminded my father in-law about our agreement and he told me that after the performance, he will make payments just to be sure that she was good like she projects. I accepted and they left. I was in my room reminiscing on what happened earlier. I wondered what would be going on in their bedroom. Does that mean that he took her home? I thought he said he respect
CLARA My bank account is beginning to shake and I am happy. Since Damien feels I need to be a full housewife without having my own money, I will let him be, but this is the greatest move I have made. This continued and I was getting what I deserved. Damien hasn't found out about what was going on.I was very much careful so that he wouldn't notice that I had some money with me. But there was a problem, I never knew that out of excitement of pleasure, President Flores was paying Rose for each round of sex they have in a day. No wonder she sends my share quickly with hesitation. And she never bothered to tell me about it. She is really cashing out but she's a bad friend. How did I find out? One evening, I was discussing with President Flores, and the discussion we had led to him telling me this. "For a while now, the happiness you are having knows no bounds. What's the secret?" He chuckled, “Clara, you know the truth already. You did something spectacular and I will forever be i
MICHIGANA few weeks later after the incident at Damien's mansion, I felt sick and became bedridden due to a very unusual flu which I ignored at the start.I thought deeply as to where that moment of fantasy would lead me and Damien, it felt different as I embraced the mutual feeling we both shared and gave in to my heart's deepest desire.The flu kept me from work and doing anything productive leaving me with no other option than to hire a maid. I was too stubborn to go to the hospital as I feared that I would have to spend days thereafter testing.Just as I sat in my room with my wipes on my side and my nose as red as that of the red reindeer, my maid walked into the room and there seemed to be someone at the door as well."Someone is here to see you madam.""Come in."I responded with anticipation as I watched the door to see who it was, surprisingly I saw Damien walk into the room with flowers in his hand.His expression changed when she saw the drain look on my face that hinted a
DAMIENThe death of my father was more than a shock to me as I still could not grasp the level of the situation. What I felt in the aftermath of my father's death was indescribable.I would sometimes be lost in my mind each time I thought about his death, it would seem as if I had lost my mind and driven to madness.A few friends of my father had gathered in the mansion to mourn him after the burial, and countless people all came to me to say the same thing over and over again.It became infuriating but I had no other option than to keep up and put up an understanding face. I left the main room where all the guests were gathered to the outskirts of the mansion.To my greatest surprise, I saw the most unexpected guest I didn't think would come, I watched as she walked out of her car and her driver drove off to park the vehicle."Michigan."I stuttered as I still could not believe my eyes as I saw her in a black dress approach where I stood, she looked even more beautiful in the dress.
ARMANDOI looked at the letter that weakened me from the very moment I saw it, a letter from my long-lost family.All my life I never thought that this day would come when I would meet my people again, a cluster of emotions raided my mind as I couldn't help but feel an outburst of happiness and sadness at the same time.The name I had made for myself as well as Michigan made it easier for anyone to find us as well as my long-lost parents."What about Michigan?"The one thought that made me think straight in the fog of all those emotions, I spent so much time with her as we became a crucial part of each other and I could not help but feel what this message would do to her once she heard.I closed my eyes as tears dripped down my cheeks, there was only one road for me to take and it would be a painful one but the best for us both.I walked into Michigan's office after leaving my desk with a different sense of being, I took my steps slowly in an attempt to find the right words to disclos
CLARAI could not help the fact that my meeting with Paul caught me off-guard as I did not expect anything like the outcome of what I encountered, it made me drive with a worried mind."Why do I keep getting this intuition that something wrong would happen?"I thought aloud in the car as I drove alone, the exact words rang through my mind as I approached the end of my destination.Arriving at the mansion with the same worried and troubled countenance as I walked up to the door, the mansion appeared even more quiet than usual as I stood at the door surprised."What is going on here Damien?"I asked as I saw him sit in anticipation and with a menacing look on his face, he sipped the glass of juice before bringing himself to speak to me."Look at those test results, all the answers you need are in there."He spoke in such a calm tone which made the situation even more frightening as I touched the test slip on the table. He watched me like a predator waiting for me to make the wrong move
ARMANDOTo my greatest surprise, she did not even seem fazed by the fact that I was with Paul, it was almost as if she knew about us the entire time which I highly doubted."Why am I not surprised to see the right-hand man or should I say servant of Michigan, you guys do make quite the duo after all."She spoke with a sense of calmness as none of what had happened seemed to catch her by surprise, even with the element of surprise on our side she was not moved."I haven't got all day Paul, If you have something to say to me you might as well go on with it or save us the stress of having such an absurd meeting.""I did not come here to banter words with you Clara for that time is far behind me, you decided that you do not want me in Benjamin's life knowing fully well that he is my son and not Damien's."I watched as Paul poured out his mind to Clara in a tone that I never heard him use until the moment he accepted the gruesome fate that Clara presented him with."I will leave his life b
ARMANDO"We were able to apprehend the assassin as well as his employer who happened to be an underground drug lord portraying an addictive gambler to the public. I got the drug lord to talk and he confessed to his crimes."The detective said as he revealed the concluding aspects of the investigation, one thing was still ringing in my mind and I waited for him to finish the reveal before I asked."There is still one part of the investigation which seems like you skipped it, it's the part that concerns Michigan and happened to the same thing that linked her to the case.""I was just getting there, the drug lord also revealed that he was working with Clara whose sole aim was to frame your boss for the crime while the main plan was to kill Paul."Such a full disclosure was certain to drive one into a state of unparalleled shock, I stood my ground in disbelief as I slowly assimilated the information that shook me."it is now up to you guys if you will press charges against her or not, you
DAMIEN"Hello madam so sorry to have kept this from you till this time but Benjamin fell sick last night and right now I have him in the hospital receiving treatment."I spoke with a polite tone as I disclosed the current situation with Benjamin to his school management. They were more than ready to give him as much needed time as possible to recover."We will find time to get his classmates and the staff to visit him, my regards to him.""Will do, madam."I responded to the headmistress as I hung up after seeing the presence of one who completely changed my neutralized countenance, someone who needed to be here but not the type I would expect to arrive at anything early."Where is he, where is my son?"Clara asked as she walked straight to the room I was standing close to, I stopped her from entering as the nurse was still administering his medication."Hold your horses right there, you barge in demanding to see a son you didn't even bother to check on before driving off to some busi
DAMIENAfter a day of nonstop paperwork even as the owner of the company, I returned to my mansion with a weighted expression and a tired countenance.All I needed was rest at the moment, nothing more nothing less as I crawled out of the car, trying to lift my entire body and the briefcase I held in hand."Nancy!"I called out to Benjamin's nanny as she was the only maid in the house before crashing into the nearest couch I could find in the living room, loosening my tie as I awaited her arrival.After a few minutes of no response, I decided to call her as I had no more strength left in me to call out at the fullest extent of my lungs."Where are you, Nancy?" I asked immediately if she picked up my call, "I have been calling you since I got back and you are nowhere to be found.""I went to the store to pick up something that Mrs. Clara ordered, she asked me to rush down here a few minutes before you called sir."It was not of her own doing as the task sounded exactly like something Cl
DETECTIVE LEONARDSteven added as he then approached the pair to apprehend them, I could sense that one of the two suspects would want to defy the odds and try to pull a stunt on us.The more deadly tossed the nerdy guy unto Steven as he immediately jumped through the big vent that sat behind him, a smart move that I did not anticipate."Cuff him!"I said to the detective as I ran off to meet up with the escapee who happened to have planned his getaway plot if something like this were to happen. To my greatest surprise, the officer caught him before he could get on his feet, cuffing him up as he could not pull any more tricks out of the bag."You nearly got killed in there, I hope this goose chase you were about to take us on was not for nothing or else you will have me to answer?"The suspect did not want to answer as he held a bold and overconfident expression with me, he wanted to make this even harder than it already was but I knew just what to do to get to him.I drove them back
