Nichole responded to Daniel's greetings too and Daniel replied facing Olivia. “I'm fine. And you?”“I'm fine, my Page Boy. Daniel, can you tell me the work of a Page Boy at a wedding?”Daniel gave a response that can only be imagined by a child.“A Page Boy writes on the pages of the wedding.”The family burst into ecstatic laughter. Daniel was unfazed. He had said his mind and he continued to make his request.“What of Uncle Denise? I would love to see him.”Freya, who had not made a comment since she walked in, declared.“Olivia, get dressed, let us pay Denise a surprise visit.”“Wow! That would be good.”She said as she walked to the guest room to dress up. She remembered the words of the cab driver that took her home that dreadful night and said.“Thank God that a better door had opened for my good.”Nichole informed Freya.“I learned that Louis is around.”“Wow! That is good. Where is he, please?”“He is at Denise's place.”Freya screamed.“Hurry, Angel, you are going to meet so

They sipped their tea and stood up to give their father hugs. And announced.“We shall be on our way, father.”“It is all right. Be careful Louis. Denise, how is Angel?”“All right father. I will. You will get my call when I land.”Louis assured his father.“Angel is fine. We will talk later, father.”“It is all right. Safe trip, Louis.”They took off to Denise's apartment at once. The drive was still slow because the traffic rush was still there. After one hour, they got to his house with enormous expectations that they would meet his fiancée and the others at home. Then, John, the security guard, welcomed them.“Welcome boss. They have gone to Mr. Fields' resident to look for you.” Louis and Denise only smiled. They have had enough disappointment for the day. So, they decided to take it as an act of God.“Big brother, it was not meant to be.” Louis announced.“You are right. You can see her any other time. Just focus on your trip.”“You are right, Denise.”They got into the house

The scream alerted his staff members, who ran to his door and knocked, even though they knew it was not locked.“The Boss.”The janitor called out. Louis responded to the knock and assuaged their fears.“I'm fine, Fred. Thank you.”“Okay boss, good night.”“Good night.”He continued nursing his wound as he thought aloud.“Could she be dead? Is the man on white apparel God who had come to take her to heaven?”So many thoughts about Olivia tormented him, but he was able to get some sleep. He woke up in the morning and got ready for his trip. Though he looked worn out, but the trip was important to him. He addressed his staff members before leaving.“Fred, thank you for your meal and concern last night. Please take care of the house. I will keep in touch.”“You are welcome, boss. Please be careful. Fair trip.”“Thank you.”Before 7 am, he was at the Heathrow Airport with all his team members. At 8 am, they were airborne to Cairo.At the Bailey Native Home.Nichole left for work as usual,

“The fact that the doctor said that there was no cause for alarm does not mean that she was pregnant. She has been with me for three weeks now. I have not seen her show sign of pregnancy.”“You may be right, Mom. I have observed her myself and had been wondering.”“If Denise had slept with her, why would he allow her to be here?”“It is all right, Mom. Whether she is pregnant or not, she will be married to Denise the coming week.”“Nothing changes that. Let us go and see Julie.”Nichole said. They got off the bedroom, got Olivia, and they set out for Arthur's Apartment. Olivia, who was putting on tight jeggings and a turtleneck top which complimented her figure eight shapes, was walking leisurely and happily teasing Daniel.“Daniel, you will try the clothes that you will put on the day you will write on my wedding page.”Freya and Nichole laughed at the joke. They exchanged glances and Freya nodded her head in rejection. 'She is not pregnant.'Nichole concurred. Soon, they got to Art

After the two attempts failed to get a response, he gave him a call. Now, the ringtone which he wished would be a call from Olivia but turned out to be from Eric woke him up from sleep. He looked at the wall clock before he picked up his phone and discovered that it was 5 pm. Then, he spoke.“Hello, Eric.”“Good day, boss. I'm just checking on you.”“Oh! That is good. Please wait.”Eric was glad when he said 'please wait' because he believed that his plans would work. Then, Louis got off his bed and put on his bath robe before he walked to the door and opened it. When he saw him, he smiled and invited him in.“Come in, Eric.”“Thank, you boss.”Eric responded as he followed him into his suite. When they got in, Mr. Louis, was not comfortable with the bath robe that he was putting on, announced.“Please have a seat. I will be back.”“All right, boss.”Eric said and took his seat on one of the couches in the parlor of his suite while he walked to the bedroom to dress properly before joi

Denise laughed softly as they entwined their index fingers, a symbol of a pinky promise. Then, Olivia walked to his couch and sat beside him, feeling uneasy. The nightmare she went through by sleeping with a man before their marriage was still fresh in her memory. Denise looked at her and asked.“What are your plans for our honey moon? Where and how long?”She smiled and said.“Let it come as a wedding surprise from you. Any plan you make will be all right by me.”“Wow! You are putting me on the spot.”Olivia smiled and remarked. “I trust your judgment. I know you can come up with something nice.”Now, she saw some semblance between him and Louis for the first time and considered it as an act of God. Then, she crawled to his side of the couch and rested her head on his thighs before he looked up to his face. Denise looked into her eyes and announced.“I'm planning sixty days of honeymoon. Can you withstand it?”She sat up and cupped his face with her hands before she gave him a passi

He concluded and began to check on the kind of gaming facilities in the hotel that he can engage himself in to keep his head afloat. He had been an indoor man all his life, today, he had to find a hobby that would make him happy. Likewise, he dressed up and walked around the hotel. To his excitement, there were many activities going and everyone seemed to be happy. He gave Eric a call.“Hello boss. Is there anything you want me to do for you?”“Eric, nothing for now. I just want to inform you that I am at the Gaming Center of the hotel. Inform the other team members. You can join me if you wish.”“That is good. We are joining you.”After a few minutes, the team members joined him, and they walked around to discover the kind of games that they could fit in. Now, they got to the football court and discovered that there was a match going on, and the players were also visitors who came for the exhibition like them too. And some faces were familiar. They had met them at the Exhibition Aren

Freya brought her son, Daniel, who would be the page boy, earlier and returned to her house.“Mom and Olivia, we will meet at the registry. Daniel, see you later.”“All right, Auntie Freya. Later,” Olivia declared.“Thank you, Freya, for bringing Daniel earlier. I hope to see you and your husband later.”“Yes Mom. He is getting ready. Daniel, bye.”“Bye mom.”The affable Daniel became withdrawn that day when he saw many strange faces at his grandmother's place. He became clingy and would not leave his grandmother's side. When Olivia noticed that, he called his attention.“Daniel, meet my niece and my cousin.”He looked at her questioningly and ignored her. He felt that she was sharing her love between him and her niece, who was the same age as he was. Olivia, who could not get up from her seat because the hair stylist was working on her head, had to persuade him.“Daniel, my Page Boy, come and give me a hug quickly, so we can join Uncle Denise at the registry. He will be cross with us

Wednesday – At the Government Hospital, The Superior could not reach out to Evelyn after trying her number several times the previous day. Lorene, who would have furnished him with the information of her whereabouts, was still in danger. So, he had fewer hands as three of his staff members were off-duty. That day, he had to adjust his roaster to be able to have more hands. Then, Zoey had resumed for the day and was shuttling between her office and Nichole’s. The janitor, who believed that she was assisting Nichole, was of great assistance. “Thank you. What is your name?”Zoey asked the janitor, whom she had taken delight in after working with her for two days.“My name is Rachael Justin, Mrs. Bailey.”“What a nice name? You have been very helpful. Thank you.”“That is the least I can do to cover up for Mrs. Bailey.”“Oh! That is good. I will visit the emergency later to see Lorene.”Rachael, the twenty-year-old janitor, pushed her bottom lip forward in disdain and asked, “Do you rea

He may not be able to resolve other issues in his life, but Cassandra would not add to his problem. Then, he called the Personnel Manager at once. He picked and greeted.“Good day, boss. How may I help you?”“Good day. Transfer Eric to my office and send Cassandra to take over from Eric with immediate effect.”“It is noted, boss.”(Cut)At Stephen’s ApartmentAfter the meeting with the Patriarch and the family heads, he boarded a taxi to Lorene’s house, which was at the Barrack’s Road. To his chagrin, she was not at home. He looked at the time, it was 1:30 pm.“Where could she be? I know that she is on AM Shift.”Now, he rested his head on her door for a few seconds before he gave her a call again, but as usual, she did not pick. With a heavy heart, he left for his house. Then, he sent a message to the barrister requesting that he would make the check for the compensation available.“You are free. I will be in my office by 3 pm.”“All right. See you.”At 2:30 pm, he boarded a taxi to

He asked anxiously. Zoey, who was breathing heavily, could only summarize her complaint with a sentence.“She attacked me, I pushed her away to defend myself, and she slumped.”Dr. Caesar, who was about settling down for the day’s job, was as confused as a chameleon. He gave her a perplexed look while she stood in front of his desk waiting for his response. Then he managed to ask.“Who is ‘she’?”Then, it occurred to Zoey that the Superior was not aware of the incident before she gave a detailed explanation of the incident. Dr. Caesar gave her a cursory response as though nothing happened while he concentrated on his work.“Go back to your office and continue with your work.”When Nichole addressed Lorene and Evelyn as hawks and poachers, she had her reasons. They have attempted ceaselessly to poach the superior away from his wife, but failed. When he dismissed Zoey and concentrated on his work, he felt that Lorene deserved what she got. She returned to Nichole’s office and met a tidy

The facinorous and pretentious Stephen paused and looked at the lawyer to read his countenance, but it was unreadable. Then he proceeded and feigned a sob.“Please, I am pleading, join me to plead with Arthur not to exact vengeance on me. You can see my dilemma. I know I have erred, but, let him spare me this time. I promise I will not be incautious again.”Now, some family heads believed him and had compassion on him, while some refused to take his apology that was not good enough for them, as they turned up their noses at him. Then, the family head of Oscar, who was not happy with how he abducted Zoey, felt it was time to strike, and spoke.“Stephen, you promised you will not be incautious again; incautious over what? Is it the kidnapping of our wives or attempting to sow seeds of discordance in our families?”Such an incisive speech dug up Stephen's iniquities, which the family heads were about to forget. They became infuriated and shouted on top of their voices.“We will not plead

Now, Brown was at the barracks at 7 am because of the meeting. As the head of his family, he knew what to expect from the other family heads, but he was prepared for them.“Good morning to you, our Patriarch.”“Good morning, Brown. How are you?”“As you can see, I am good. What about you?”“I could not catch a sleep last night because of today’s meeting.”“It is expected. We cannot run away from our responsibilities.”“You are right. If those ahead of us had run away from theirs, who knows where we would have been by now.”“You are right.”Then, the scumbag, Stephen, walked in and greeted, “Good morning, our Patriarch. Good morning, my family head.”The two elders looked at him searchingly. They did not bother to respond to his greeting nor glimpse at him. The Patriarch ordered without looking at his face.“Wait in the hall.”“Thank you, our Patriarch,” The momentarily repentant Stephen said, and walked to the hall in the courtyard and took his seat. He watched the family heads trickl

Denise paused and looked at her innocent face without responding, but she continued, “Are you still mad at me?”“Eat your food first.” Denise responded and kept feeding her. She took two more spoons and stopped and said in between sobs, “I am okay. Thank you.”Unfortunately, Denise lacked how to respond to the situation; he was angry with the woman that he must save her life.‘I have to concentrate on saving her life first. I can get angry later.’ He advised himself and smiled. He scooped the food and then urged her.“Sweetheart, I don’t think you are okay. Just take more spoons, and you will be okay.” Olivia saw it as an opportunity to strike a bargain with her husband, and she quickly asked, “Answer me. Are you still mad at me?”Denise smiled and asked her too, “Can I ever be mad at my beautiful Angel?”(Peck)She gave a dampened smile as she wiped the teardrops that tickled down her cheeks with the back of her hand. Denise, who was emotional at that point, dropped the plate and th

“I hope she is not angry with me for taking long in contacting her?”Now, he gave her a call for the second time. The phone rang several times, but she refused to pick.“She must have gone to sleep,” he concluded, and slept off too.At the Tourist Center.The Security Officer was happy with the changes he saw in Jude’s composure. His youthfulness radiated as he was constantly happy. The moist that usually gathered in his eyes whenever he wanted to speak was no longer there. He enjoyed making music with his piano than watching the television. When the Security Officer got to his room that afternoon for his lunch, he observed that he spoke freely with him; more like a relation than a stranger.“How is your day going, Jude?”He smiled and paused from the keyboard before responding.“My day is going on well, Sir. And you?”“Fine. Your lunch is here.”“Okay, thank you, Sir. How about the boss?”“The boss is good. He sent his love.”“Oh! I wish I will meet him soon.”“Yea! You will meet him

Mrs. Felix said when Lorene walked out of the Chairman’s office. To her surprise, she did not respond rather, she walked on like a disappointed child. The clerks noticed the same attitude. She got to the car park, got into the car and drove to the gate. She got off the car, picked her phone and drove away. The Security men were surprised to see a woman who was raging a few minutes ago walking solemnly to their office to pick her phone.‘What must have happened? Who is actually the Chairman of the Bailey International Conglomerates?’ She mulled over, and drove. Howbeit, she never considered putting a call across to Stephen, neither was she aware that she narrowly escaped the police arrest. Now, Denise had sent for the Security Officer who drove to the Admin Block after Lorene drove off.“You called me, boss.”“Yes. Why did you call the cop on that woman?”“I did not call the cop, they just came.”“How? What do you mean by they just came?" Denise asked, and furrowed his brow. Incidental
