"Sir, as soon we get off the plane, we head home, I have information that the president is already waiting for you at the mansion." Drew said as the door to the private jet opened automatically.

Jake walked down the stairs with his usual aura, while Drew followed behind, waiting for a response.

"Tell the driver to take us to the headquarter, you arrange a meeting with the entertainment groups managers." Jake said while entering the car which the driver had opened for him. Drew also got in.

"But sir....the president is at the mansion." Drew reminded his boss in a shaky voice, but Jake didn't say anything, he just sat and closed his eyes.

The driver who just sat waiting for instructions turned around to look at Drew.

"To the headquarter."Drew said having no choice but to obey his boss. The driver just nodded and began to drive, while the other cars followed.

Drew didn't know what mood his boss was in at the moment,he could remember he was happy just when they left nanny Therese's

    "Sir, do I ask the driver to get the car ready?" Drew asked once they were back at Jake's office, but Jake didn't reply, he just stared at the glass wall opposite his table.Drew looked to see if Jake was watching someone, through the one way translucent glass which served as a front wall but there was no one there."Sir?"Drew called to him."Sir?"Jake finally looked at him."do I ask the driver to get the car ready?""Do I have any meeting scheduled?""No sir, it's just that sir Edward called again to inform me that the president is still waiting." Drew said and watched his boss sigh."She did mention it was an office matter when she asked me back here right?" Jake asked looking back at wall."So I was informed by sir Edward, yes."Drew said watching his words, he didn't want to be involved in any drama between Jake and his mother, who prefered to be called by her position at the company."Get the car ready then."he heard Jake say.******Drew peeked a look at Jake as the car drove to t

    "Nana,we're leaving." Amber whispered when she was sure she was close enough to nanny Therese."You're still here, I thought i overhead you say you both would be late to the academy, if you didn't leave before 8am this morning.""Sooo sorry, nana, didn't intend to wake you up, just thought I should come in here and inform you before we leave." Amber said. She had crept in slowly into nanny Therese's room to say goodbye."It's fine dear, did Victoria leave already?" Nanny Therese didn't see her here with Amber."No nana, Tori's out waiting for me.""Oh okay. Let me go out with you." Nanny Therese smiled while getting out of bed, Amber helped her up.Victoria heard footsteps coming from behind her, so she put her phone in her jean pocket."Finally you're are here, what took you so long." Turning around to face Amber, she met with her grandma instead."I thought I should come hug you before you leave, who knows when next you'll be coming back." Nanny Therese snatched a hug from her.Vict

    "Today?!" A few of them chorused unevenly."Yes, here they come. Ssshh, you guys." Berry whispered.The girls stood in a horizontal line with their prettiest smiles and most presentable poses, ready to welcome the visitors.Brown walked In with some men and women accompanying him, he had his tablet in his hands.Everywhere was quite now. Brown looked up from his tablet, taking his shades off and handing it to one of the person who came with him, he started to look around."Good day everyone." He smiled as he greeted, everyone and everything around here seemed organized, maybe this wouldn't be as hard as he thought."I am Brown Carter. You can call me Brown, I was assigned here by my boss directly to recruit the finest of models, and that I shall do." He peered his eyes through the line of girls in front of him, he wanted to be sure she was here before he began.He looked at Victoria's picture on his tablet and looked at her again, where she stood besides Amber."This is her right?"

    "If your name wasn't mentioned, may I ask you leave." Brown requested amid the murmurs going on.Leaving the arena, some of the girls kept on looking at Victoria in a query manner."We would travel in the next five hours, kindly meet the young lady over there, sign your contract and if you wish not to, please do inform my team." Brown's phone rang as soon as he was done talking and Diane missed her chance of talking with him.The girls stood in a vertical line, in front of the arranged table where they were to sign their contract."I knew I was right when I said miss Diane had it out for you two." Amber heard Brie's voice from behind her.Surprised that Brie wasn't talking about Victoria getting picked without a walk earlier but the history between her mother and Miss Diane, she didn't want to talk about that but she had to reply."I don't think so, there must be a reason we weren't informed about today." "You think?" Brie asked."Well, yes." Amber nodded."Tori what do you think?" B

    "Finally! You aren't mad at the old woman anymore.""It's not like I hate her, you know i don't right?" Victoria needed to clarify that."Of course I do." Amber knew she didn't. Her phone rang, it was her mother.Meanwhile on the other side of the Arena, Diane walked over to Brown again." I think I might have to cancel this whole thing, Mr Brown." Diane's smile was ungenuine."What do you mean?" Brown needed to hear her repeat her words, so he could be sure."My girls won't be leaving with you, this agreement is over,please don't take it the wrong way." She made to walk away."You do know you can't do this.""I can and I plan to. It's why I am informing you." Diane didn't care about the other girls now, as long as Amber wasn't getting this opportunity. "The girls signed the contract already, it's pretty much as complicated a legal matter now, you surely can't go against our contract." Brown's words were certain.Diane could barely hide her frustration. Her efforts were now futile.*

    The plane had landed and the five selected models from Plaintwood stood together at a corner, with Browns team waiting for him, because he was on a call.Some cars were driving in and out of the Airport entrance. People with signs held them up, for those they waited for."Our bags have been checked, why are we still waiting?" Amber asked no one in particular."Maybe something was found in Allyson's luggage"Brie muttered. "why would you even carry that?" Brie asked Allyson."What?""We were ask to bring along just few important stuffs, and the rest would be taken care of, everyone's with a back pack and you brought a luggage.""Oh. These are all important stuffs." Allyson defended."Mhmmmn?" Brie replied sarcastically."Our cars are here." Brown came up to them, and began walking foward, they followed behind.Reaching outside, the girls saw three similar looking cars, that looked new; all black in colour."Please." Brown simply asked them to get Into the cars, when the drivers opene

    "I got information that the government has been investigating the Tn group, not yet sure if it's authentic, I'm waiting for sure feedback." Hale answered and simpered. Gemma didn't smile back, so he went ahead to speak again."Come on Gemma, you know I won't do anything concerning the group, without your knowledge, I wasn't sure about the info I got, that's why you don't know about this, but since you asked, I can't lie to you.""Does Jake have any idea about this?" She asked."He doesn't. Like I said right now, I need to be sure before we think of doing anything." She sighed inwardly to his reply."I talked to Jake this morning, he's not willing to have a fake marriage." She went to the main reason she requested him here."Greg is gonna have a higher advantage with the board, if Jake isn't married in the next three months.""I know. He's just stubborn about this.""He never cared much about the company.""Don't say that!" She snapped at him." It's the truth.""Good evening." They bo

    Jake laid on the bed in his room, his eyes shut. He was trying to get some rest. He soon heard a knock on his door. He didn't want want to answer it at first, he suspected it might be his mother.The knock came again and he opened his eyes. He was now sure it was his mother, because no one else dared to disturb him when he had retired to his room.Opening the door,it wasn't his mother. It was Felix. It had to be something important for Felix to disturb him; he thought. Felix was the oldest helper here at the mansion. He had served Jake's father and now he was serving Jake but all he did this days was to make sure things were in place.He had basically known Jake since he was younger."Sorry to disturb you master but the president wants you downstairs." Felix's voice was filled with apology."Is Hale still there?" Felix expected this question from Jake."Yes, he is." He could see the annoyance in Jake's eyes though he didn't show it, he had watched Jake grow so he knew he was annoyed

    "I'm desperate Vee, I won't lie I am." He touched her forehead with his,"I just want it to be how it used to be, except that we are older now and I don't need to hide before I can spend time with you. I just want you and your love, I just want you to love me as much as I love you." Victoria didn't interrupt him while he spoke. She was confused just as much as he was drunk. When he said he wanted it to be how it used to be, she felt like he couldn't be lying or saying rubbish like she initially thought. She wished she could just remember the things he was speaking of and be sure he wasn't just saying those things because he was drunk.While she was still in thoughts, she felt his lips on her forehead. Jake kissed her lightly on her forehead and left his lips lingering over her head, wanting to kiss her in more places than just her forehead but he also was trying to control himself. He hugged her in hopes that it would calm him down from losing himself. He hugged her tight, his nose re

    While Jake returned to where Victoria lay to check on her, Hale got a call from Felix and went and handed the phone over to Gemma."Felix," he mentioned who it was calling after she took the phone from him."The guests are beginning to notice young Mr Topher's absence, Mrs Topher." He informed her."Sir Gregory gave a cheer speech to his nephew's new age and asked for him to come clink a glass of wine with him and now everyone's wondering where he is.""Keep everything under control, we will be on our way back very soon." She told him and went to Jake."We have to go back...""She needs to be taken to the hospital." Jake couldn't believe her. He wasn't going to leave Victoria till she got to the hospital safely."Someone will take her," he noticed how his mother was back to being autocratic now that Victoria wasn't dead anymore."I will go with her to this hospital and be with her.""Jake!" Gemma got angrier than she could contain."Do you have any idea how bad things will get if you don

    Jake got to the beach of the sea and stopped the car. He quickly got out and went to where a car was parked. There was no one in the car so he looked around the water and saw the people he was looking for. They were on a yacht so he ran towards the water."Stop!" He yelled out but they didn't seem to hear him so he yelled louder."Stop! Don't do it!" He waved as he yelled."Can't you hear me?!" He screamed out but the yacht only went farther on the water till it stopped going. He stopped screaming, thinking they finally heard him and that was why the yacht was stopped but that wasn't why.He saw them throw a person into the water, he could see the water around there splash. He immediately took off his suit jacket and dived into the water.Gemma and Hale got there just in time to see him jump into the wavy water. Gemma got out of the car immediately and ran to the shore of the water."Jake!" She panicked when she saw him swimming further into the water. "Hale, do something!" She turned

    Jake snuck out of the party like he did the first time and made sure no one was following him, especially his nanny. He knew she wouldn't let him into the room again after letting him the first time. His mother had instructed her to make sure he didn't talk to or meet Victoria but she risked her job when she let him; she might not let him again. Looking left and right to ensure that no one was around, he opened the door to Nanny Therese's room and went it. He was surprised that the lights were turned off because it wasn't when he was here earlier. He wondered if she had fallen asleep for the lights to be turned off. He went to where he knew the switch would be and turned on the light. Victoria wasn't on the bed sleeping like he thought. He picked up his neck chain and went to the bathroom door to knock."Vee?" He called out to her, strangely feeling worried. Victoria didn't respond to his call after he called out two more times so he opened the bathroom door and looked around.

    "Jake?" He was called back just when he was about to go into Victoria's room. It was his eighteenth birthday and his mother had prepared a big party he did not ask for. After meeting many business men and women and thanking them for coming like his mother asked him to, he snuck out of the party which was holding in their large, hall-like living room.He hadn't seen Victoria since morning that day so he went straight to where he knew she would be, her and Nanny Therese's room."Jake?" It was Nanny Therese."What are you doing here? Do you want your mother to get angry at you on your birthday too?""I just want to see her," he explained to her."No. Your mother prohibits you.""Why is she in the room alone, I want her to be at the party.""No.""Did mum ask you not to let her?""Jake, please, just return to your party before the president notices you are gone." Nanny Therese worried that his mother might find out he left the party and she knew she wouldn't be happy to know that he came

    "I would do that," she gave a reply to his question."I would drink a glass of wine so suddenly like that." "Why? You don't like me that much?" He asked and she didn't know what to answer so she opted for the only thing to avoid that question."It's not your turn to ask. It's my turn.""I'm waiting." He complied."Why don't you like your brother?" She asked something he didn't know if he could answer or not. He was starting to realize that she had lots of questions he wouldn't want to answer and he could end up drinking more than he could handle."You really want me to get drunk, don't you?" He asked and Victoria's eyes widened."Me? Get you drunk? No. Of course not." She swallowed and started to use her hand as a fan even if the air conditioning was working well."I make stupid decisions when it's you involved. I shouldn't have agreed to this, I'm surely getting drunk tonight.""You don't have to play the game if you feel like that." Victoria said to sound innocent and hoped he didn'

    Victoria sat in the car while the helpers put in suitcases in two of the cars. She couldn't believe she actually did agree and was about to go to the airport and take a flight to the renowned Katar beach in M-city. She had always wanted to go there so she picked that place. At least, there would be an advantage to her agreeing to go on a honeymoon trip with him.She had spoken to him after her call with Amber yesterday and he assured her that they will be back two weeks before the preplanned fashion show so she can return to practicing with the other models.*****M-city."Wowww," Victoria let her eyes wander around her when she got out of the car that just stopped in front of the beach's resort."Do you like it?" Jake came up behind her."I love it. The place is beautiful. Much more beautiful than I thought." She had the biggest smile on and it made Jake happy."Your room," the hotel manager showed them to an executive suite and waited for Jake's comment but Victoria spoke first."It

    "So, how's my brother-in-law doing?" "O my god, Amber, it's just for some months," Victoria told her friend and heard her laugh out loud over the phone."Mark my words, it's gonna be longer than that, way longer. I know love when I see it.""Here we go again.""You know I have a way to detect love when I see it.""And is that because he's billionaire Jake Topher?" Victoria laughed back before getting a knock on the door."Who is it?! Cora? Emily?" She asked, but when she didn't get a response, she decided to go for the door, leaving her phone on the bed."Give me a second, Amber,""Alright..." Amber replied to Victoria who was already by the door."Emily, I told you already, I eat all the types of fruits, so anyone you use to make my fruit salad is okay." Victoria started to talk before opening the door."Please don't come up to ask me again," She said on opening the door but saw that it wasn't Emily and neither was it Cora."Are you busy right now?"

    "How did I? I guess I have a superpower, like you do" he reminded her of what she told him yesterday when they were alone in the kitchen.She laughed shortly."Okay, let's do this..." She had an idea to get him to tell her more of the things she wanted to know about him."How about I tell you about my grandma and our not-so-good relationship and then you tell me about you and your mother, and maybe your brother too?"Jake nodded. He didn't need her to tell him about her grandma because he knew her well, he knew about her relationship with her grandma but yet he nodded, anything to please her."Okay, I'll start." Victoria smiled. "My grandma is a nice woman, the nicest, I love my nana but...I haven't been on good terms with her since I turned eighteen, I mean there were a lot of things that led up to that but when I became eighteen, it kinda got out of hand." She paused and looked up from fiddling with her dish. After seeing that he was listening, she continued."I was in my Nana's roo
