"Where are you going? We aren't done yet." He says trapping her tighter as he places his hands closer beside her.

"That...That was em..." Kemi trails off as she stammers.

Lexis leans down to her ear and whispers. “That was what?” He asks as he smirks. Then he moves away from her putting his hands back into his pockets.

“You might die if you do this next time, scaredy cat." He says turning away.

"I wasn't trying to get your attention!" Kemi says loudly making him to stop and turn around.

He narrows his brows, “Oh really?”

Kemi bit her lips before standing up from the sofa. "I...I simply fell into the pool by accident. I..." She looks pass him. “I wasn't trying to get your attention.”

Lexis twitch his lips and shrugs, "If you say so.” With that, he exits the room same time Rose walks in.She stares at Lexis leaves in widen eyes before running over to where Kemi stands.

He is squeezing a document in his hand as his face is ugly from the deep frown he is wearing.“F**king hell!" He yells in anger as he throws the document on the ground. He runs his hand over his head in frustration as he leans against the table. He had gone over to Alhaji Bawa's house to get him on his side with the document Kemi had gotten for him. The document contains all right to the family company and shares but after taking it over to Alhaji Bawa,he found out that it wasn't the original.

    As I sit among the crowd beside the underboss, I see the consigliere climb up to the stage holding a mic in his hands.“It's a great honor to have you all here today." He smiles as he says to the microphone. He is wearing a white suit and the shirt underneath is not buttoned to the top. It seems he has gotten a new hair cut and I hate to say it but it looks good on him.“We have prepared the best of the best for you and you will not regret it." He says with a smile and I can't help but scoff. They have prepared the best of the best girls to be used as slaves and other mean things. It's just so unfair.Just then when I turn around, my eyes meet the man the underboss showed me in the phone. He is walking in escorted by some guards and is heading to the front row. I breathe out and stand up to my feet before I start walking towards him with all the courage l can muster. And just when I get to where he is, I pretend to miss my step and I stumbled on my feet almost falling in front of him

"You think you could get away after messing with the guns, Anthony?"Anthony spits out blood from his mouth as he breathes hard while staring at Lexis in fear.
