“It’s been a while, Mr. Mahon,” Kendrick greeted Mahon when he entered his office.“It has indeed. I almost couldn’t recognize you.” He giggled quietly.“That sounds like good news to me,” Kendrick replied, giggling like a baby.Mahon cleared his throat, “R.B. Conglomerate is having an auction for their new masterpiece necklace,” he said.“That sounds nice, but why are you telling me? I have no connection with R.B.” He questioned.“But you have a connection with me and as a friend and soon to be business partners again, I am inviting you to the auction,” He smiled, raising his eyebrows.Kendrick’s eyes glowed, his heart was beating fast, Mahon was considering buying shares with them again.“You are coming back?” Kendrick asked.“Of course. I just found a better offer earlier but you don't have to worry about it,” He said.Ken's heart jumped for joy. The best news so far.“Well, that's a surprise to me. Wasn't expecting you to come back to Ruserick,” Kendrick told him.To him, the plea
When Kendrick got home to see Rosy dressed, he was so happy. After Kendrick finished preparing and Rosy applied a finishing touch to her makeup, they walked to the car that was waiting for them.When they got to R.B. event hall, which is the venue for the event, they were late by just five minutes because Kendricks’ meeting didn’t end on time and he also took time to prepare.A lot of dignitaries filled the hall, exchanging pleasantries here and there.Kendrick held Rosy’s hand as they walked through the crowd. He didn’t want to lose her because of finding a comfortable space for them.They had barely sat when Mr. Wright came to welcome them. He didn’t say much because Rosy had a murderous look planted on her face, which indicates that he should mind his words.Mahon also came to welcome them and left immediately because there was a brief meeting with all shareholders before the event began.Kendrick was getting all worked up. He couldn’t wait finally to get to see the CEO of R.B. whi
By the next morning, what happened had filled the whole internet. While some people praised Kendrick for still loving his wife, despite impregnating his side chick, others called him a stupid man who doesn't know how to control himself.Everyone kept praising Rosy for still tolerating such a man, knowing fully well he was not faithful while she remained committed to the marriage.Kendrick woke up to a lot of messages on his phone. At first he had no idea what was going on because he thought buying the gold necklace last night had made him a popular man in Oxagon, forgetting Cassandra’s outburst.A call came in. It was Daniel. He didn't hesitate to answer the phone.“Boss, have you seen the news this morning?” Daniel asked curiously.He has been waiting to receive a call from him, perhaps to give him instructions on resolving the issues, but no call came.“What is going on? I just woke up,” He answered tiredly.“A video of what happened last night at the R.B. necklace auction between y
Kendrick at his study, thinking hard on what to do. He stood in front of the window, looking at the cars moving. His head has refused to think. Coupled with the hangover, he just couldn't go hard on himself. Having stood there for some time, he went to his desk.He brought out a clean sheet with a carved pencil. There was a rush of jewelry ideas in his head and he needed to get one since he couldn't get a solution.He was almost done with the earrings sketching when a message popped on his screen, distracting him.“Boss, the board wants to have a meeting with you in an hour's time,” the message was from his secretary.He was expecting that summons, but not so fast. He knew the board would be hard on him because a lot of them were never in support of him being the Ceo.They had chosen who they wanted to take over from his mother, but his mother insisted he take over because he had been his PA before taking up other positions.He dressed up going to the company. He had no expectations
“Rosy, please just do this once. I promise not to disturb you again,” Kendrick pleaded.He has been on his knees begging Rosy to go out on a lunch date with him to help the situation.If the public sees both of them together, their thoughts about everything will change and everything will return to normal. Besides, who will be angry when his wife isn’t?“The last time I did, where did it get us? There is no need trying again, just go look for some other alternative cause it won’t be different this time,” she said as she continued knitting.Rosy was very good at knitting. She knitted the table cover on the dinner table. She also knitted most of her casual wear and that of Kendrick, especially the one he loves the most.“But we can’t conclude yet until we try it out, please Rosy,” Kendrick begged.“Go look for someone else for the job. I am tired of being embarrassed by you in front of everyone,” she said, not shifting her gaze from what she was doing.“Yes, I know I embarrassed you the
Rosy collected the mic of one reporter. She cleared her throat, gaining their attention.“I will give you all an answer which you seek,” she smiled, looking at the faces of everyone.“What are you doing?” Kendrick asked quietly, which she ignored.“I am not being forced to stay in my marriage. My husband made a mistake which he informed me about immediately before the pregnancy. It was a one-time thing and ever since then, it hasn't happened again.”“Are you saying you were aware your husband cheated on you?” A reporter asked.She ignored the question as she continued with what she was saying.“My husband and I agreed she won't give birth to her baby outside our house. That is why she is living with us. A mistake won't break my marriage. Everyone is bound to make mistakes and people should be forgiven when they do. I still love my husband, and our marriage agreement is still intact.”“So you supported your husband's infidelity?” A reporter asked her.“I would like to use this medium t
Kendrick was at his office preparing a file he was supposed to send to a client about Ruserick's best items.The client contacted him after Rosy spoke to the reporters, and he had been so interested in Ruserick since then.His phone rang. He heard it, but was too busy to check who the caller was. He just wanted to finish up with this so the client can get what he wanted from them.The phone rang again and when it almost ended; he picked it up, not checking the caller.“Hello.”“Hello Kendrick,” the caller said.The voice sounded familiar, so he looked at his phone screen to see who was calling and when he saw it, he quickly greeted again.“Mr. Wright, you called?”“Yes, I called the first time, no response from you so I had to call your PA who informed you that you were busy with some work and so i called again,” Wright said.“He is right. I am creating a cart of our most expensive products for a client,” Kendrick explained why he didn't pick up his call the first time.“That's good,
I have always believed that my mom and dad were the best couple. Most times, they had matching outfits on.Dad will always carry us, Mom, Ronald, and me, to the park every time he gets a chance. Dad was always careful not to offend Mom, and likewise, Mom.The attitude they displayed in front of Ronald and me sent an indirect message to us, especially me. Ronald and I were doing great in our academics, which a child wouldn't be anyway when they live in a peaceful home.I remember one time when Mom did something wrong and begged for Dad's forgiveness all night. I went on my knees with Mom too, to beg Dad.An hour later, Dad came out, looked at Mom, and I shouted, “Ta daa, we were playing!” I ran into my room angry and smiling because I didn't expect that to happen.Our family was the envy of everyone on our estate. One day at dinner, we were having my favorite spaghetti with grilled chicken when Ronald brought up a story his teacher told him in class.“Dad? Mom?” Ronald called.“Yes, so
