At Arthur's Office.While he was patiently waiting for Nichole's reply to his message, his secretary informed him that he had some guests.'Why now?' He mumbled before he responded.“Let them in, please.”From that moment, the visitors coming to congratulate him over the success of the son's marriage ceremony became endless.“Congratulations, Mr. Bailey.”“Thank you. I appreciate.”He responded with a divided attention because he took a quick peep at his phone at intervals while the guests came and left. Soon, the message alert came.(Arthur, I wish to let you know that I am glad that you are back. We cannot have dinner at my apartment tonight because I don't have food. Nichole.)Arthur forgot that he had visitors before him and smiled before he let out.“Silly girl. At least, her reply is better than not replying at all.”“I beg your pardon, Mr. Bailey, are you talking to me?” The guests in front of him asked. Nevertheless, Mr. Bailey gave a fleeting response while replying to her me

He smiled at Nichole, who smiled back too. To make their visit look like a planned one, Nichole had to pretend by asking Arthur, “You are here? Did you get what you went to buy?”“No” he gave an absent-minded response and walked to the couch and sat down. Subsequently, Nichole continued with her meal while Louis pleaded before leaving the suite.“Father, I’m glad that you are here. Kindly keep Mom company. I will be back.”He was confident that his father would grant his request, and left without waiting for his opinion. To his expectation, Arthur replied.“All right son.”Now, Nichole stared daggers at him while he adjusted his tie and rested his head on the couch. Meanwhile, Nichole, who thought it was a coincidence that Arthur was here to look for his son, was not aware that her daughter, and her husband, snitched on her. After they got off call with her, Phil called on Arthur and inquired.“Hello, Phil. Good to have you on the line,” Arthur responded“Hello father. I am just check

Thereupon, Nichole strolled around the arena just to while away time. As usual, she observed the lustful look from the men around. At that instance, she hated herself for having eyes for only Arthur since her husband died. Later on, she returned to their boot and spent some time chatting with them, which gave her the privilege of studying the caliber of staff working with her son. When they were done for the day, she closed with them.“Have a nice evening,” she said, and the team members closed for the day.“We wish you the same, Mrs. Bailey,” they responded, and retired for the evening to their rooms while she returned to the suite with Louis.“You have a wonderful team, Louis,” she commended.“Wow! You are very observant, mom. I am blessed with a great team.”She walked back with Louis, who was aware that the evening would be a moment of intense discussions to his suite. Then, Arthur who was through with his meal and had settled down to watch the television greeted, “Welcome back, S

A few Weeks Later at the IslandMr. Denise and his wife, had bonded together just the way Denise loved it. Olivia was no longer crying about her past because she had seen love in another form and could not ask for anything more. They looked more beautiful and handsome than they were before they moved to the island. Their skin complexion was healthy. Now, Denise had added some flesh, which could be attributed to peace of mind and a sense of accomplishment.“Wifey. Congratulations on our one-month wedding anniversary. I'm proud to be your husband.”Denise greeted his wife as he woke up that morning. Olivia, who had also put on weight and was looking chubby, smiled and returned the compliment.“Congratulations to us. It had been beautiful all through. May we find more joy and happiness.”“You look chubby, do you know?”“Yes. I noticed it. What could be the cause?”“Hahaha. Are you asking? For thirty days, you have been …”“Stop. I got it. Does it make one chubby?”“Let's see what happens

Now, his father looked at Nichole with a pleading face and pleaded in a low tone, “Nichole, please, don't make me wait for too long.”Mr. Bailey had come to realize that it was only the children who bond them together, so this was an opportunity to talk to her. Nichole simply stood up and walked back to her seat without response.Then, Louis had freshened up and joined them in the parlor. They stood up while Mr. Bailey picked his car keys, they walked to the courtyard, after they got into the car, he drove to the spot where Nichole usually take them to for outing when they were younger. Louis remembered the old days when nothing bothered him. He walked around buying all sorts of delicacies for himself and the entire family. His parents sat down at a table as other couples with their drinks while waiting for him. Then, Arthur resumed his toasting of Nichole as he looked into her eyes and called out, “Nichole.”She was startled when he called out her name. She thought that what he had t

In The Vehicle.Phil and his wife laughed merrily over their accomplishments as they were driving back home.“Hubby.”“Yes, baby.”“I think we had judged mom wrongly.”“What do you mean?”Phil asked with curiosity.“It is obvious that Mom traveled to Cairo specifically for Louis and not because she was dating another man.”“I think you are right. That is what I noticed too. Mom is so concerned about her children. Before I met you, I was never aware that the four of you were not from the same mother.”“Yes. You are not wrong if you think that way. Everyone thought so. They thought that Arthur is our biological father too. I pray that things work out between the two of them.”“I pray so, too.”They drove home silently until they got home.At the Bailey International Conglomerates, SevenoaksNow, Mr. Louis's team members had returned from Cairo after the International Property Exhibition, so, he began to plan to return to Sevenoaks.“Father.”Louis called his father when they were in his

Thursday – At Arthur's ApartmentArthur woke up that morning feeling unwanted. He took a fastidious look at himself in the mirror, when he walked into the bathroom for a wash, and consoled himself.'But I had been like this when she was crushing on me. Why did she lose those feelings?'When he could not get any answer to his questions, he took his bath and returned to the bedroom to dress up for work. Afterward, he left for work with his son. Meanwhile, Nichole woke up too with a slight headache. To avoid brooding much over Arthur and his unsteady love advances, she left for work very early too and in the evening, they all converged at her place for dinner.When Arthur who had made up his mind to draw her attention to him just like before and his son arrived for dinner, Nichole was taken aback when she cast her eyes on him who was casually dressed but charming. He wore a white T-shirt upon a pair of white shorts which revealed his hairy long legs and arms. He also stylishly brushed hi

Now, despite the option that Nichole gave to him, Arthur was infuriated, and it affected his sense of reasoning. To him, 4 pm meant that she did not plan to come back to Dover that day. Then he mumbled to himself, 'This is ludicrous. She wanted me to take her to her date. That would not be possible.'Meanwhile, he combined his position as the Family Head who must be respected and the potential husband, who must protect the woman he loved. Then he demanded, “Why 4 o'clock? What time will we come back to Dover?”Nevertheless, Nichole, who had resolved to put her beautiful plan to work, inquired, “Do you intend to come back?”“Why not?” He responded with a counter question because he felt that she was over stepping her bounds. Then, without waiting for her to speak, he proceeded, “We are leaving by 1 pm. I think that is the best I can do for the two of you.”He thundered authoritatively with a tone of finality, which he believed that she must accept without further argument.“But you sai

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
