He thought of Nina and pulled out his cell phone from his side pocket. On the screen he was met with a picture of a beautiful woman beaming at him. That was Nina Davis the woman whom he hoped will not turn her back on him like the others.He quickly searched her on his contact lists and dialed the number but she didn’t pick up the phone. It kept on ringing and ringing without any response. His heart was filled with sadness because he knew that by now the whole Davis family is aware of his current situation.But no one at all bothered to call him and ask how he was. For God’s sake he has just lost and he was feeling down, the least he wished for was support from those whom he cared about.Nina Davis called one of her trusted contacts who was scheduled to attend the meeting and was told about the outcome of the voting. Toby was not going to be the president and she wondered why she was so unlucky. This time round she was sure that he will be chosen as the only heir but things took unexp
Before they could reply, Nina’s cell phone rang and when she looked at the caller ID it was none other than Toby. He sneered and stamped her legs hard on the tilled floor annoyed by the guy’s constant harassment. Why would he leave her alone in peace? Must she tell him to his face that she doesn’t want him anymore?“Just pick up the phone and tell him to get lost” Matt growled.“Hello Toby”“Finally Nina, I have been looking for you for the last 3 days .where have you been? Surely, you should have just picked up the phone or called back”“I am away on a trip and I don’t plan on coming back soon. So find someone else to be your girlfriend .I don’t think I need you anymore”“Are you sure you are not at the mansion, I am right outside here in my car and I can see all your cars parked at the compound. Besides the light is shining brightly on your house and I can see figures moving around”“Just go back to your house we have nothing else to talk about”“It is because I lost the position th
He knew that Emily was currently at the construction site and without thinking anymore he drove towards the place. His heart was beating very fast when he caught the sight of Emily inspecting the work in progress.She looked charming more than usual in her black pencil skirt and white blouse. Her black hair was tied in a ponytail at the back of her head .She wore a helmet and put on a dust coat on top of her attire.At first he wanted to go ahead and approach her but on second thoughts he decided to watch from a distance to try to gain some courage. He wasn’t brave enough to stand in front of her.He stayed for a while and before he realized it was already time for going back home. Emily removed her helmet and dust coat and headed out. This was his chance and he had no intention of letting it go to waste.However when he was almost getting out of the car, he saw a black car drive and stop near the construction site. The window was brought down and there he saw Richard beaming and smil
Suddenly she lifted up her head and saw a man with a mask running away and the man whom she could not see his face was chasing after him. They were running away and every step that they took made them disappear in to thin air. The blurry man was so sad, she could feel it“Please don’t leave me alone, Come back I am scared .The ma…..sk” Emily started sweating uncontrollably all over and when Richard heard her shouting he woke up at once and took her in to his arms.Despite him slowly whispering in to her ears in a soothing voice, she couldn’t stop. She was lost in her own world and couldn’t differentiate what was real or not.Richard Clenched her teeth with annoyance because whatever he did couldn’t manage to calm her down. She was in so much pain and Richard wondered why the hell she couldn’t get over the ordeal. Was it that bad or there is something else that he was not getting right?If it will console her or make her a little better, tomorrow he was going to do everything in his po
They were deep in discussion when finally Shane came and slumped on the chair next to Richard. The smell of alcohol and cheap perfume filled the air around as Richard sneered his mouth in disgust. He has always wondered why the hell he was still the jerks friend. He was everything that he hated and now more than ever he despised him.“Richard, how could you do that to me when I told you that I am innocent? For God’s sake we are friends, I have been there for you for the worst days of your life. I have defended you against your enemies and supported you as long as I have known you. What a good way to repay my kindness? ““Just give me the information I need and you will see that I am not that bad.”“Don’t you even trust my words?”“I am sorry, buddy but No. I know you are hurt now but after all this is over you can still choose whether to be my friend or not. What I won’t forgive is if you had anything to do with what happened to my wife.”“I have long realized that she had become more
Dan knew immediately what Richard meant, they had done this several times that he knows the procedure by heart. He punched the guy two times in the stomach and he started groaning in pain. Perspiration was now flowing freely on his face.Dan had received some training and he knew exactly where to hit to produce the most pain in a human body. It wasn’t the first time he was doing this but this proved to be working whenever they needed some important information.“I will talk, just tell me what you want to know? He cried while holding his stomach, it felt like he had been pierced with a sharp knife. But how could a simple punch which he had gotten used to feel that painful?”“Apart from being a cheap thief you are also a rapist. I am going to count up to 5 and if you haven’t started talking about the event two years ago. You will receive double of the pain you have experienced just now. I am guessing that the pain was unbearable, imagine if there was more.”He nodded his head and start
He grabbed the man’s collar and dragged him out of the basement to the waiting car. It was still dark in the night and he couldn’t recognize where he was behind his blind fold. He guessed they didn’t want him to trace where he was being held.After the man was placed in the vehicle, Dan drove off in a high speed, it was a good thing that the place was secluded so there weren’t any witnesses to what has just happened, besides most people are currently asleep in their houses.When the vehicle left, Richard looked at his wrist watch and frowned. It was 12.00 in the midnight, he was so much consumed by the man that he forgot that Emily might have been waiting up for him because it was so late and he hoped that she was already a sleep.He was even more surprised when he looked at his phone and found several missed calls from Emily. She might have been worried about him and that is why she cared enough to call him. Since the day they started living together he had never been away from hom
This woman, why would she accept me back, could that love she claimed to feel for me disappear just like that? Or did she really fall in love with the guy? No she was mine first and she will remain like that, I have to work hard to earn her love again.But the woman was so defiant that when he saw the look of hate in her sweet and innocent eyes, he felt defeated in that instant. The situation was proving to be a little difficult than he had imagined.On the other hand Emily didn’t even know how to treat him. This was not the usual proud Toby she knew, he looked thin and uncared for. Could it be that the fact of losing his company president to his illegitimate brother affected him that much? But why was he not with the one he claimed he loved? She was the weakling with no money, why come to her right now?“I know you have a lot of questions in your head, but you have always been the love of my life. I never loved Nina and evidently she never cared about me at all.”“She only considered
“Emily can I invite you for dinner? You can choose the restaurant that you want, there is something that I need to tell you. “Said Richard.Emily was now used to his tactics and he never seizes to amaze her, she smiled as he stated ”I know that this is another surprise that you have for me but don’t worry this time I also have a very big news for you?”“Really, give me a hint” he tried to get her to talk but she wouldn’t.” I will tell you after you have finished with yours okay. This one you will definitely like it”“Okay” he had no option but to agreeThat evening as they sat on the table eating their favourite meal, Richard knew in his heart that if he would have been given another chance to choose he would have still chosen her. As he stared deeply in to her brown eyes, he couldn’t help but melt in her love, it was strange but he was caught up and there was nothing left for him to do.“There has been something I have been meaning to tell you for a while now but I didn’t find the ri
Emily did nothing but to nod her head “Yes it has already been confirmed, all we need to do is go for A DNA test which I know will turn out positive.”“Don’t worry, I took both samples of your hair and it turned out positive. Emily and Mira you are really sisters so you don’t need to confirm any further.” Dan said and excused himself to go. He just felt contented for reunited the sisters.“Congratulates Emily and Mira” Ben muttered and hugged both of them. He soon went with Richard to the study room so that they can give them some time to catch up.The girls did chat for a very long time and they didn’t even realize that it was already dark. They came to reality when Richard and Ben came to remind them that it is time to take some break.“Ooh…we had so much to talk about but it can wait for another day” Emily said as she hugged Mira goodbye.Yes my sister and my best friend, now we will never be inseparable. We will make sure to compensate on all those period that we weren’t able to g
“Okay as you wish” Richard smiled with triumph, he never believed that there will come a day that his proud and unbearable brother would bow down to him. But he didn’t care all he wanted was for him to finally leave him alone.The boys seemed to have sorted their issues so the parents who were eavesdropping came back to the living room smiling and complimented both of them. Anew era in the Weller family has began and they couldn’t be any happier.“Richard you should have done this earlier. Mark is surely a very stubborn man but I know he will be fine” their father said and gave Mark a slight pat on the shoulder to show him that he appreciate him for doing what he has done.Mark smiled at him and whispered” Dad you know I have always loved both of you, I just didn’t feel that you loved me the same. Can you at least try to show me more attention?“Don’t worry my son, it is just that you never allowed yourself to reason out things but we are the first people who love you more in this wor
“Do you even ask? Richard mother replied. This is all about your sons beef and I don’t know when it is ever going to stop. I really tried to teach both of you the right way but if it must take place please you are free to take it outside.”“There won’t be any one fighting here mum, all I want is to make myself clear to Mark and we will be done. I will go back to my house to mind my own business and you will stay back here with him if you so wishes.“Come and sit down, I want to hear all that you want to say” his further urged him. He was wise enough to try as much as he can to be patient.“Before I say anything I want to make it known that I never liked how Mark kidnapped my wife and told her things that she wasn’t supposed to. As if that wasn’t enough, he conspired to steal money from my company and then opened a new company to compete with me. Dad, why don’t you advise him that we are too old for this beef? We should just stop and move on with our life.”Never in my life Richard, I
“What do you mean Emily” Ken asked.She means that you just signed the transfer of ownership back to me, silly. You should have read the whole document. I can’t believe how stupid you are and you claim that you are a business man” Toby snarled.Ken hesitated as he felt his blood boil, the fools tricked him. They were never going to get away with this, he was going to kill all of them one by one. He slowly removed a firearm from his pocket and pointed it on Emily’s head” you should have thought well before messing with me.”Nina cheered happily she urged” what are you waiting for, blow her head so that she can go to hell, that is exactly where she belongs”Suddenly there was a bang on the door and Richard was standing there personally” he didn’t seem to fear anybody. All he did is say” Ken if you know what is good for you, stop pointing that gun on my wife or you will be dead.”Richard didn’t need to do anything because before Ken lifted his head one of the body guards had already pinn
“According to his father, he still has the original ownership papers, so he only wants him to sign transfer paper without his knowledge. I promised that I will help him but the more I think about it the more I get scared. What if he colludes with the likes of Nina to harm me?”Emily was devastated by thinking about Nina, she knew that she will attack her no matter what.Don’t worry Emily, I will help you. Everything will just be okay” he consoled her. Emily thought that he would scold her but Richard was getting more understanding each and every passing day.“Thank you” she said and hugged him.It has been weeks now and Ken reached out to Emily again. They managed to set up an appointment day and she was really nervous as the clock ticked on the wall. She didn’t know what to expect from the guy.The agreement was for Toby not to show his face in order not to raise any eye brows but he would stay near incase there was trouble.A sudden knock on her door brought her back to reality as h
Ken produced a sarcastically laugh, he never acres about anybody and this Emily is the least of his concerns.“You know I really don’t care about this Emily woman, but what interests me is that she is friends with Toby and I am definitely sure that she is a very careful lady. I think she has been consulting Toby and he has talked bad about me so I want to destroy the fool through Emily.”His plan was to sabotage her company with the help of his mafia friends, and then he will claim that Toby is the one who conspired to ruin her business.He will go as far as forging fake evidence against him. Ken was sure that Toby was planning something against him and he wasn’t going to wait for him to catch him off guard.Yes by the time we are done we will have killed two birds at the same time. You will have your revenge against Emily and I will have destroyed the stupid Toby. Cheers, we make a great team” Ken held his glass up and smiled evilly.Toby felt that the matter was so critical, so he
“Hello mommy I missed you, did you behave well? You know you are the biggest spoiled brat I know around. But please I am no longer I that bracket, I left it entirely for you. So keep on carrying the medal.”She laughed” you are so funny, son”“Toby, my son” his father too hugged him and patted him on the back.” What is new here? I want to know everything.”He guessed that he meant he wanted to know everything about his company which was going under the bridge .Ooh…daddy you have no idea what a mess you caused back then before disappearing “ he thought to himself.“Dad let us talk about that at home. I don’t feel comfortable talking about it here in the public” Toby said with courteous voice, he didn’t want his father to hear the bad news , not yet ,he needed to go home first.“Alright” his father said but deep inside he knew that there was something wrong. He was sure that he made the right decision by handing his whole life to that boy or was he wrong”When they reached home, his fa
Richard cleared his voice and stated with authority” My wife is now the rightful owner of this Company and those who do not believe the fact should go and check at the registry offices.“As for her uncle’s crimes, she shouldn’t be questioned about that. You can as well follow him to the prison and ask them that. I think Matt Davis is the best person to answer that.”Emily watched in amazement as Richard answered all the questions with no much effort at all. It would have been a very difficult time for her was he not around.“Yes she had known for a while that Martha was her maternal grandmother and it hasn’t been easy for her. She had lived her whole life as an orphan.” Richard continued to answer the reporter’s hungry questions“About the company, does she have the skills to run it?” Another reporter asked all over a sudden.Yes” Richard muttered and looked at his wife with affection then he added” look out for big news coming soon. You will then get to know that she has very outstan
