“Commissioner, it has been long since we had a chat.” That was how he greeted the man whenever he called him for an urgent assignment.“Yes, Mr. Walker I guess a man with your nature has a lot of work to do. How may I be of a service to you?” the man asked.“Now I need a favour from you. I am asking you this because you are the only person that I can trust and if ever I find out that you have betrayed me I won’t hesitate to kill you. I hope you know that”Jared then hesitated for him to be sure that the man was following him carefully.“Sure” The man was evil sometimes and whenever he gets this fussy, there must be something important enough for him to get involved. He never cares about insignificant things.“I want you to listen to me very carefully to the instructions that I am going to give you. Follow them to the later and we won’t be having any problems with each other”“Yes, go ahead, I understand Mr, Walker. Anything for you.”He then explained in to detail as to what he wanted
Finally someone was standing up for her. She sighed a relief and held her head high as she listened carefully at the sudden turn of events. Not all is lost just one support from the directors is enough for her to turn things around.“Why are you such a jerk” Director Jason muttered.“What did you just call me you stupid drunkard? I will beat the hell out of you today. No one and I repeat no one is allowed to talk to me like that.” Director Lorenzo got really furious.Tempers were flaring now in the room that even Nolan who was a little enthusiastic seemed to have changed. His face was worried, the only thing he cared about was retaining his status as the president so he can continue enjoying the current privileges that comes with the position.But everything was falling apart as the two Directors run in to each other throwing blows and punches. Tessa acted fast to try and contain the situation but the two men seemed to have an old score to settle. They stuck to each other’s bodies and
Celine had scanned the document and sent it to the lawyer without his attention and she was glad that it is exactly what she already knew.The lawyer continued his speech while everyone in the room was quiet.“As for who seats in the president position from today onwards, it will be Celine without any voting. She is the rightful owner of the company and she will henceforth be carrying out her duties as the law requires. If anyone else have any questions, go ahead and ask.”As he was still waiting for their response, the police suddenly arrived and everyone was shaking. They didn’t know what they wanted because no one called the police in their midst.“Nolan Carter you are under arrest for forgery and money laundering. You have the right to stay silent or whatever you say now will be used against you in court.” The police said as they headed towards him. He was a well-known public figure that the police didn’t even waste their time searching for him. What surprised the people in the h
“When you start to talk like that you scare the hell out of me. Do you like to kill people that much? Aren’t you afraid to soil your hand with blood?” “Sweetie, don’t worry about things that do not concern you. All you have to do is to be a good wife and everything will be fine. Don’t be afraid of the silly directors I will deal with them ruthlessly. You know they are just like little ants that I can easily squeeze with my fingers“Please don’t kill them” Celine was honestly afraid, she has never been a fun of cruelty.“Okay, only for you”“By the way my mother sent her regards. She says I should thank you for paying her medical expenses. I can feel that she will like you.”Now that was something else. Who would have thought that the woman whom he took advantage of her situation will say such a nice thing to him. Not even his own mother has ever shown him close to that affection.He became silent all of a sudden and Celine wondered why“Aren’t you going to say anything or what?” Celi
He was in a mess, looking like a lost puppy dog. He bet that he had never been in a situation like that and when Jared thought at the surprise he had for him later tonight, he couldn’t help but laugh sarcastically.“Look who we have here. How is your stay”?“It was you! “ Nolan sneered.” I knew it, Celine was too much of a coward to pull something like this, but don’t just get comfortable I will show you that you shouldn’t have crossed my path in the first place.”“Oh Yeah, what can you do while locked in this place? Me on the other hand I am as free as a bird. I have your woman and what about you? You are a looser who has lost everything not even the company that helped you tramples on just anybody.”His brows were furrowed as he looked at the man with hate in his eyes, if he was not locked up he would have killed the man by his bare hands. If he think that he is the devil then he was even worse than him.“Jared Walker, you are playing with fire. When I get out of this place you won’
Celine wondered why there was no one around, not even one person had come to talk to her. While still deep in thoughts she heard loud laughter coming from the conference room.She hurriedly left for the room with Tessa following right from behind. There seemed to be a staff meeting and people were shooting all sorts of comments from all corners of the room“Do you think that the boss lady will handle the task?” One employee asked“I don’t think so, what do you people expect from a woman who has courage enough to cheat on her husband. Will that be a bad moral lesson to our women here at the company? She can learn a thing or two from my submissive and beautiful wife.” Another one teased and the rests started shooting comments from all corners of the room.“Ha…..Ha…Ha” the crowd laughed even louder with no knowledge that Celine was standing right on the door listening to their comments. She was so disgusted with the comments of the group, even if she messed up they had no right to hold s
She had been meek and gullible all her life and for once in her life she was going to show everyone that she was capable of defending herself.Celine felt suddenly dizzy and held on to the table for support. She wished to go and lay down somewhere for a quick nap, but she was now a very important person and the company depended on her to correct the past mistakes made by Nolan. The only thing she needed was to get over her current situation and keep going strong.“Ma’am do you need something? I think you should go and sit down for a while” Tessa held her shoulder as she escorted her towards the office.Tessa was very fast and immediately he sent a text message to Jared telling him that Celine wasn’t feeling well. He replied immediately that he will be there in a short while.Jared was watching the secret camera he had installed on Tessa’s eye glasses. He saw everything and was more than pleased with what he saw. He had been worried that Celine was too weak to be able to handle those p
“But what will people say when they see us go out together.”“Are you worried? I don’t even care because in their eyes we will always be lovers or whatever they might want to call us. Come on let us go.” Jared reached for her hands and held them possessively, she could still feel the warmth in them and she loved it.It wasn’t until they exited the front entrance that they were met with a huge group of people heading towards them. It took her some time before she realized that the reporters were in front of her again. Celine shivered at the thought of them harassing her especially now that her ex-husband was in jail. In addition, she took over the company and right now she was caught red handed with her supposed lover.Why was I so much unlucky, must they come at this particular time? She felt hot tears stinging her already red and swollen eyes.The reporters started shooting questions all over, she knew that they wouldn’t spare her.“Celine Nelson, did you just take over the company
“Watch your words, idiot. I love weddings and not all the marriages go wrong. I believe in Lina and me. Alright …. shut up already “Ivan scolded.Jared grinned at the two with a triumphant face.“I am just kidding. Anyway, I am happy for the both of you. Make this lovely woman happy. “Jared said and then left to say hello to Alexis and Jason. He hasn’t found time to visit them and so he was glad to catch up with them.Back at the other corner, the boys were chatting when they saw two beautiful women entering inside the hall. They knew that they were Lina’s recently found cousins. She introduced them when they went on one of their evenings out on which the boys and the girls were present.Nolan grabbed Rita’s hands and pulled her aside. He hasn’t stopped to fantasize about her. Ever since he saw her, she was all that he could think about day and night . He knew that if he didn’t do something ASAP, he was going to lose his second chance at finding love. He wanted to settle down and have
“Of course, this is a fucking yes. Let us make another baby. May be, she will be a girl so that your grandmother can tell me her name.” Celine said with affectionShe had grown to love Old Madam Walker so much and she wanted to please her. She was the only grandmother that she has.“Or maybe he will be another boy and my grandmother won’t hesitate to kick your ass” Jared joked as Celine wrapped her hands around his neck. ” Anyway, you could have simply asked me to tell you her name. You are just being silly, sweetie.” Jared whispered in her ears while nibbling on them. She so fucking liked the excitement that she was getting from the simple gesture.“Okay, wherever …a child is a child and as long as he/she will be yours, it doesn’t matter the gender. Anyway, I wanted grandma to tell me her name herself. Can we get to the business because I am ovulating and this is the best time to conceive?“Huh……” he hummed and then started kissing her furiously. Before they knew it, they were lyin
After the incidence, Celine didn’t go out much. She would spend her time at home taking care of Isaac. It was a good thing that Alma was still around and she was helping with the management of the N.C Corporation in Mombasa. Ever since Alma came to Mombasa, Celine’s uncle, Lucas Nelson found his way to manage the Nairobi branch. Finally, he got his hands on his late brother’s company the moment Alma left.Alma said that she was too old to fight with him so she gave up to raise her grandchildren. Nothing was more important than Isaac and Celine. She would give up just anything for their sake and she would sacrifice her career for them.In the evening, Jared came back from work. He was looking at her funnily and she didn’t know what he had in his crazy mind.“Sweetheart, spill it. I almost died the other day you know “up to now, she was still traumatized at the thought of April and her mother getting to them. She had thought that the two had learned their lesson but apparently, they de
But the police were on their trail shooting from all directions. They tried but they couldn’t match up to the number of the police that was sent to pursue them.Buy accident the tires busted after being hit by the bullet and before they knew it, they were thrown in to the man-made lake on the side of the tarmac road. The police surrounded the lake from all sides to prevent them from escaping and by the time that the car had been pulled out, the both of them were already dead.Joel was hit on the chest and was unconscious when he was found and taken to the hospital When he woke up, Patrick was by his side and he couldn’t believe the state that he was in. He was no longer the babbly and healthy Joel that he used to know. He was thin and pale. He looked like he had aged a bit and Patrick couldn’t bear to look at him.“Oh…. Joel. what have you done to yourself? I told you that it wouldn’t end up well for you. Those two were snakes. I lived with them and I knew them very well. why didn’t
“Daddy, life is too short to keep on having unnecessary beef. Look at what happened to Jared, he has forgiven Nolan and his mother. It was like they were never the people that he hated with his life. He is now at peace with himself. I wish you could see him today. He is not the Jared we used to know. Always angry and sad. Please just hear him out, he might be having something important to tell you.” Celine begged.She always had a way of reaching out to him. Patrick felt sad suddenly. Celine was right in a way. All this time, it has been eating him up like hell. He wouldn’t be at peace knowing that his only brother was suffering while he enjoyed life and had such a wonderful family.Perhaps it was time to hear him out once and for all.As if on a cue, Joel called again and this time, he picked it up.“Joel, what do you want?” he asked emotionlessly.“Listen, I don’t have much time to talk or explain things but your life and Celine’s s life is in danger. Your car is being followed an
After a few days, Celine went to visit her dad. It has been long since she saw him. Patrick Rowan was happy nowadays. Together with Iris, they were trying to build the pieces of their life back together and she couldn’t help but admire their spirit.It was admirable. Finally, life had granted the two of them another chance to experience good days. Gone are the days that her father would be insulted like a little kid. Gone are the days that she would look at his loneliness and wished that she could take his place.“Daddy…” She called as soon as she saw him.“Baby” Patrick hasn’t forgotten how he used to call her and he had maintained it to the end. Iris only smiled loving the way the two loved each other. She knew that she could never match up to them but as long as Celine was happy, then she had nothing to worry about.“Mum, how are you?” She asked as she kissed her cheeks.“I am great dear. I am happy to hear the good news that Jared reconciled with his family. Now you are going to
“Why not my sweet little daughter in law. I love you and remember that we are only focusing on the future. No more dramas or immature behavior from me, I want to be a good mother and a grandmother, okay. You made my son happy and that is why I will have you as my daughter in law. Thank you.”“No…. Thank you for giving me such a good man as my husband. “Celine smiled as she looked at Jared and his father.“Oscar, congratulations on your wedding. I never came to the ceremony.” Celine cracked a joke and the family laughed about it.“No, it was a quick one and I am glad that I made that decision. You should have seen how my wife was aggressive with me but who is smiling now? I want her to know that despite what has happened between us, I am glad that she gave me a beautiful family. I never even dreamt that I will one day become a grandfather. Thank you, darling, I love you from the bottom of my heart.“I love you right back “Danna smiled“No need to talk anymore. I want to celebrate with
Enzo gladly went and together they hugged their mother consuming her in to an embrace that stole her soul all over again.“Enzo, baby. I love you so much. You two are my life right now. ” Danna muttered as she kissed Enzo on the cheeks. The man chuckled as he replied “ I love you too Mommy and I love that we can now be a normal family with Jared . Oh…I waited for this day for so long, damn it . I wanted to tell my brother that I didn’t mean to cause him trouble in the past. All that I wanted was for him to notice me and consider me as his brother but he was so full of hate that I didn’t know how to reach out to him. ““I am so sorry for my behavior in the past. I am the one who should be asking for forgiveness. I was jealous for the love that our mother gave you. You have to understand that I watched you have everything that I didn’t. so, I found myself hating you even when I knew that you were innocent but it won’t happen again because I will never break up my family. I couldn’t
“Come here, sweetie.” Old Mr. Gavin called. Did she hear it right? was this arrogant man calling her sweetie? When did he start to grow fond of her? wonders shall never end. Danna was now being pampered by the very people who loathed her in the past.“Mmh….are you calling Oscar? “She asked dumbfound.“No….it is you, Danna. Why should I call that bastard that denied me a chance to be with my grandkids like an idiot? Does he even deserve for me to pamper him?” the man snarled. “Dad, you are being unfair and you know it. I also suffered, why must you complain and blame me for everything bad in our lives? “Oscar complained.“I love you son , but sometimes you let me down. I am just going to bear with you because Jared has finally come to me. I can feel it that he has decided to come home, something that should have happened earlier if not for your incompetence. Listen, I know that you haven’t been a good mother to him but the most important thing is that you are trying to make it up t
