“I’ll find a way to get Marisa out of town” Benjy said as they got into his car and started speeding off.“We don’t need your help, you got us into this mess in the first place!” Robin retorted back angrily.“We can’t afford to fight now, I’ve sent some of the men to your apartment to sneak Marisa out, we can discuss our next move after that” Benjy explained.“Why don’t you go to the police and confess everything so we can be spared from this drama?” Robin suggested.“It’s messier than you think, Robin even if I confess now everyone is in even more trouble” Benjy drove them to Eileen’s penthouse and Eileen sat behind her desk with her guards standing in every corner of her room waiting for them. She was in a solemn mood when they arrived. Robin charged at her when he set eyes on her but Benjy stopped him.“This is all this bitch’s fault, see the trouble you caused me” Robin ranted angrily.Eileen looked up unconcerned, she was far more bothered about her son than anything else. She
Dylan was busily examining the new engine they had developed when, he got a call from the CEO. He rushed to the office to find him in the company of the marketing director, administrative director, sales executive and head of the law department. He was anxious to see all of the seated there. He took his seat before the panel and forced a nervous smile.“So Mr. Walsh we reviewed your performance over the few months you’ve been here it’s been almost 10 months or so right? We’ve decided you’ve proved yourself worthy of our promotion” Mr. story announced with a broad smile on his face. “Promotion?” Dylan echoed, sounding as confused as ever.“Yes Mr. Walsh, we want you to be the new supervisor in our branch in Germany, you don’t have to give us and answer now, think about it and get back to us” Mr. Story said. Dylan was dazed for the rest of the day, as his mind kept running wildly about the offer. It was good but he’d be moving to a new environment altogether. There was no chance of s
Dr. Colbert examined Cody’s X-ray while Cody sat on the operating table with his dad standing beside him.“Dad I want to go back to work after this surgery, I’m sick and tired of the massages and the drama” Cody said.“But you need to recover after the surgery, right?” Mr. Whyte asked the doctor who nodded in agreement.“And your physio starts right after surgery, so you’ll barely have time to work” Dr. Colbert informed him.“I won’t be having those exercises the whole day, dad if I stay home with Nina any longer, I’ll kill myself before I recover” Cody threatened.“Cody what the hell is wrong with you, this woman took two years off, just to be by your side, how ungrateful can you be” Mr. Whyte yelled.“I didn’t ask her, she’s driving me nuts dad, she always reminds me of how helpless I am and somehow me being in the wheelchair makes me lose my right to make decisions in the house, then later she makes calls to her friends telling them about how she thinks it’s better that I can’t wa
Nina sat down all night refusing to leave the hospital. She wouldn’t listen to anyone so her mother was called. Mrs. Story came rushing in quickly looking worried about Nina.“Honey, why won’t you go home?” She asked with a concerned look.“It’s an empty house, all my darlings are here” she said and shrunk into one corner of the corridors.“So should we go home?” She asked and Nina looked up dejectedly. “Take the lead mum, I’ll come later” she answered. “Why? Let’s just… go together” she tried to coerce Nina but she wouldn’t budge. “Okay, I’ll be waiting for you don’t be long” she retreated and left. Nina tearfully got into her car and drove to Dylan’s apartment when her mom left. She knocked on Dylan’s door till he opened it. She was shivering from the cold and in tears.“Is it possible that one person can be in love with two people at the same time?” She asked immediately.“Huh?” Dylan asked in total confusion.“Is it possible that one heart can beat for two people?” She asked a
Nina helped Cody pack his bags and helped him get all the things he’d need in order to travel. Cody looked at her suspiciously, she looked more happy than necessary.“You look very excited today, is there something I don’t know?” Cody asked.“Nothing, I’m just usually happy nowadays” she answered.“Because the babies are home?” Cody asked again.Nina smiled, the babies had been home for a month they came a week before Cody was discharged she was overjoyed to have everyone at home, though she and Cody took turns taking care of the babies she was more involved and too occupied to be bothered about anything else. “It’s because everyone’s fine now” she responded and Cody nodded. She saw Cody off to the car and Cody left with Seth and Tia. They both kissed and waved each other goodbye.Back at Eileen’s penthouse she had heard that Cody was relocating. She wasn’t too happy because Cody hadn’t discussed it with her neither had he come to see his son after he had been discharged. She made
When Cody got to his home at golden springs he couldn’t help but miss Claire and her tears made him want to go back home. “Next time I’m bringing her along” he thoughtThe following morning after his physio he took his briefcase and left for work with Seth. He was in the office when he heard some unfamiliar sounds coming from the medical lab, he forgot about his wheelchair and rushed to the lab. A group of students had caused a shelf to shift making some tests tubes to fall and crack. They all watched on in horror not knowing what to say or do. Cody walked in with a stern look on his face.“What’s going on here?” He asked with an equally stern look. There was one girl with neck length short brown hair and big blue beautiful eyes, who cowered to the back and hid herself behind the crowd of students.The leader tried to explain what had happened but Cody’s attention was drawn to the innocent looking medical student at the back. He dismissed them and said he’d discuss the damage with t
Myra chose the perfect Tiara, bracelet and ring for Claire. She was making for the counter when she saw Cody still shopping for toys for boys and girls.She stared at him with a frown and stood there waiting for him. When everything was done and paid for she helped Cody park his toys into the car.“Good, now my sister will kill me when I go back, she’s going to report me for stepping out on my shift” Myra moaned.“That’s your sister? You guys got a job at the same place?” Cody asked.“She’s my step sister, that shop belongs to our dad, my step dad… anytime I step out of my shift to learn Whitney will tell our dad and he’ll deduct the money from my paycheck” Myra explained to Cody.“Well… so you work and school? I don’t get it” Cody asked.“My stepdad says college is expensive and I want to study medicine so I have to work to earn my keep… that’s why I’m begging you to be lenient with me on the damages caused at the lab… my stepdad will let me slave to pay for it” she pleaded with
So all the years she had been thankful and working hard at the jewelry store because she was grateful to her stepdad for paying her college tuition was a lie. “Mummy how could you do this to me? You saw how he made me work long shifts at the jewelry store… even when I had exams.., and you couldn’t tell me the truth” Myra said sadly.“Because the tuition isn’t the only thing you needed money for, your feeding, your allowances, your books, shelter… he helps you pay for all that” Monica explained..“He doesn’t help mummy, I work to earn money and then he takes his share out of it leaving me with barely anything” she ranted.“So will you take the job offer?” Monica asked.“Yes mummy, I need to take the offer it will help me a lot” she said trying her best to avoid mentioning the mess she had caused at lab. “That’s cool with me, if Mr. Cooper gets cranky about it just go spend some days at your aunt’s place” Monica said and walked to the exit.“Good night, Myra”“Good night mummy” S
