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
“Good day, Mr. Kendrick Madavaski.”It was Javier greeting Kendrick. They had planned on meeting that day. Kendrick had been so eager to see Javier's face. He got there ten minutes before the scheduled time.After Javier tells him what to do that will be a possible solution to the issue that almost made Ruserick fold up, he sends him frequent messages about when they should meet.Javier finally agreed and since it was a weekend, Kendrick didn't delay getting there early.“Good day. Do I know you?” Kendrick looked at the young man in front of him.It can't be Javier. With the sound of Javier's voice, he concluded that Javier would be a huge tall guy but the person in front of him was so small and didn't sound like Javier.“Mr. Kendrick, I am Javier.”Kendrick looked at him again and just when he was about to say something he remembered Javier sent him a picture of himself.He picked up his phone to look for it while Javier waited quietly for him. He saw the picture, opened it, and true
It was R.B.'s executive staff meeting for the month. It was a monthly meeting where they shared what they had observed for the month while they put their heads together to find a solution.Rosy didn't want to attend because she was sketching a necklace but Jane pressured her to go as the Ceo.She finally agreed to go and with Jane behind her, they entered the hall where the meeting was taking place.Rosy sat on the empty chair she saw not wanting to disrupt the man, Mr. Richmond the Coo from talking.“I also overheard some people saying R.B. doesn't care about their workers. A worker has been sick and no alms were sent as it is in the rules of the company and that made us lose a very committed worker.”Mr. Richmond was angry, making him pour out his anger.“The checking of R.B. workers were allocated to someone, please signify.” Mr. Jack, the executive director asked.Everywhere went silent, nobody stood or said anything, just heads and eyes moving waiting for the person to respond.“
Kendrick and Daniel came in less than an hour after Rosy called Kendrick.It was just her car still alone at the car park. She opened the car for them while Kendrick helped her to the passenger seat.Without being told what to do, Daniel turned the car toward the direction of R.B. Hospital while Kendrick called R.B. Hospital for an emergency.Immediately they got to the hospital, a wheelchair was brought to them to convey Rosy to Dr. Fred's office.She refused to open her eyes, she held her dress so tight despite her trembling hands and she kept muttering inaudible words.When they got to Dr. Fred's office, he examined her and quickly put her on treatment to calm her down.She became calm after some time but she still didn't want to open her eyes.“What happened?” Dr. Fred asked Kendrick.He knew Kendrick to be Rosy's husband but he didn't know the guy behind him.“We don't know, what she managed to say when she called was, everywhere is dark, R.B. parking lot, with that she ended the
“I was attacked at the R.B. headquarters parking lot last night,” Rosy announced to Oswald and Mahon who were sitting in front of her.They were at a club very close to R.B. Hospital. The lighting of the club was dim, not revealing the faces of the people inside.Kendrick had left Rosy at the hospital because he had a meeting with a client. He didn't want to leave her alone until Rosy convinced him she was fine.She needed him to go out so she could speak with Mahon and Oswald. Before he left, she sent them a text.“I heard about it, but I couldn't come to see you since Kendrick was there,” Mahon stated.“How did you hear about it?” Rosy asked.“You were absent for no reason today and Kendrick was also not at his company. I called him to find out why and he informed me of the situation.”“I see.”“Did you see the faces of the people?” Oswald asked, he looked so sad and disappointed.Ronald had placed him on the duty to watch her before the accident that had kept him in a coma but he j
Luckily for Oswald, the guy was waiting for his ride. He ran to him and grabbed him on the shoulder.“I remember you. The guy at the Ruserick anniversary right?” He asked.“What's Ruserick?” The strange guy asked, trying to free himself from Oswald's grip.“You can't play that on me. I remember your voice clearly.”Seeing he has been caught, he admitted. “I thought you wouldn't recognize me since it was dark that day.”“I didn't recognize you because I didn't see your face but I recognized your voice,” Oswald pointed out.“I see. What do you want?”“I want us to talk.”“About what?” He didn't allow Oswald to finish talking.“Many things. But first, we have to leave here and meet at a private place,” Oswald said“Fine, let's go,” the guy said.They finally saw an open field that had chairs around. With the look of things, there was nobody there so it was the best place they could talk.“I know you have a lot of questions you want to ask me. Go on,” the guy said when they settled into t
“I see no reason why these uniformed men will be here, but let’s go on with what we came here for.” Mr. Wright said, still showing how uncomfortable he was being around the uniformed men.“Please hand over the password.” Mr. Johnson requested.Mr. Wright opened his suit and then dipped his hand into the inner pocket pulled out the paper that contained the password and handed it over to Mr. Johnson. As soon as Mr. Wright brought out the paper, Rosy yelled.“I remembered Dad writing that and when I got in, he stopped and then we spoke before I left him alone to continue what he was doing.” She held her head and cried remembering memories she had with her father was very painful, one she still finds difficult to bear.Ronald quickly held her, pulled her in for a hug and patted her gently till she got herself back. Mr. Johnson waited and watched them while they both tried to comfort each other. Rosy pulled herself together and wiped her tears.“Please, let’s continue.” She said.“Alright.
“Have you tried to reach Mr. Wright?” Rosy asked Mahon.Mr Wright had sent them a time for them to meet immediately after he got the message that his suspension had been lifted. Just as Ronald had said, Kendrick had said the same thing.Mr. Wright was making sure everything happened so fast so he could go back to the company because he had an aim. He had told Mahon that the next day was fine for him and also he had picked mid-morning.Rosy and Ronald had concluded to use the R.B. Mansion as it was the best place they could use. Rosy didn’t want whatever they were doing to escalate and get to the ears of the board members as it would cause a lot of issues if they got to hear it.They had waited for Mr. Wright for more than an hour and he was yet to arrive after he had answered the call the first time telling them he was on his way. They couldn’t call Mr. Johnson the family lawyer except Mr. Wright had arrived.Rosy began to panic as she didn’t trust Mr. Wright because he could go to th
“I miss you.” Michelle had said to Oswald.Oswald had been away for some days. He had been working with Javier, and they had both been actively watching Mr. Wright and every move he made. He had pleaded with Javier to give him a few hours off so he could see Michelle, and Javier didn’t let him go until he was done teasing him.When Javier finally let him go, he quickly called Michelle to meet him up at Oxagon Field so they could talk for a while. He didn’t want to go see her at the Madavaski’s home because he would be teased by everyone around and that was one thing he was avoiding.Oswald had forgotten to get drinks but thankfully, Michelle remembered. They were having a drink as they walked around the field slowly. Oswald couldn’t remove his eyes off Michelle and she on the other hand was enjoying being looked out with so much admiration.“I miss you more. I pleaded with Javier to come see you and he has succeeded in teasing life out of me.” Oswald chuckled.“I am going to tease him
Rosy was sitting on a stool inside the kitchen while she gently sipped from the orange juice she had poured for herself.All through the night, she couldn't sleep well as the thought of Mr. Wright demanding something too huge for them filled her heart.Kendrick had tried to make her fall asleep several times and when she noticed the frustration in his tone, she faked her falling asleep and then Kendrick slept off.When it was dawn, she quietly slipped out of bed without disturbing Kendrick. She went straight to the kitchen. “It's been a while since I prepared something for everyone,” Rosy muttered to herself.She checked the storage to see if she would get any recipe she could put together to prepare something and then she found some chicken in the refrigerator and decided to make chicken sauce.She was already on it when she got tasty and needed a glass of juice. Despite everything she was doing, her heart was still heavy.“Good morning big sister.” Ronald greeted as soon as he enter
“Still sleeping?” Clara said to Ronald.After they spoke, Ronald took his shower and forced her to and then they went to bed. A lot was going on at the moment and all he wanted was to sleep.Ronald drew Clara closer when he tried to get up, cuddle her and then kiss her on the head and with a sleepy voice, “You need to sleep more.” Ronald said.Clara chuckled as she tried to close her eyes and go back to sleep since Ronald was not ready to get up. She was still struggling to sleep when her phone rang so Ronald had to let her go while she got up to answer the phone.The caller was Christopher and for a second, her heartbeat increased. She took in deep breaths before taking the call.“Hello,” Clara said into the phone.“Clara, wherever you are, remain there, just go into hiding with Lyon, don’t even come out,” Christopher said on the phone.“What do you mean?” Clara asked.“I said you shouldn’t come out, remain wherever you are,” Christoper repeated.From the background, it sounded as th
“Hello, can you please help me call a nurse, I am beginning to lose my breath and I can’t walk further,” Mr Wright said to the masculine guy standing in front of him while he took his seat on the chair close to him.Mr. Wright had gone to the hospital to see Cassandra without calling her. He just wanted to be sure she wasn’t lying to him and that maybe Rosy and Kendrick had dismissed the bodyguard. He was shocked to see that the bodyguard was still there and then a thought came up and he decided to act on it.The only way he would be able to get the bodyguard away from the door and then gain access to the room was by sending him away and the best thing he could think of was acting as if he was going to collapse.“Sir, are you okay?” The bodyguard walked to him and asked.“Not at all,” Mr Wright replied and screamed to tell the guard he was in pain, “All my bones are weak and I feel I might die if I move a step further, please help me call a nurse.” He said.“Okay, please remain here.”
“Hey, what’s wrong? You both look sad and tired.” Kendrick said as he hugged Rosy immediately after they entered the house. “Everything sucks,” Ronald said as he walked to a chair and slumped into it. Kendrick held Rosy’s hand while they walked to another chair to sit down. Clara came out of the room, she had a sad expression on her face too and despite being sad, Ronald had to ask her what was wrong. “Are you okay?” Ronald asked as soon as she sat beside him. “I am fine, just tired.” Clara mumuttered. “Tired? That word sounds new on your lips.” Ronald joined his brows staring at Clara who was looking at the door as if she was expecting someone. “Clara, are you truly okay?” Rosy asked. Clara nodded her head and then forced a smile on her face. “Believe me, I am fine.” She said and then looked at Ronald and then back at Rosy, “You too, what’s wrong.” “Everything,” Ronald said again. Rosy gave me a deadly stare but he didn’t care rather he looked away, avoiding her eyes. When R
“What happened?” Rosy asked again when Madam Kate was not ready to talk.Madam Kate sighed, she looked at Rosy who was still by her left and then at Ronald who was sitting by her right and then looked at her front as she began her tale.“Before your father’s death, he had given me a box and told me not to give it to anyone except you both and that’s when you are old enough to handle things.” She breathed in and out to catch her breath and continued.“When he handed it to me, I noticed there was a password requirement, so I asked him if he had given the password to you, Rosy,” She looked at Rosy. “Then, I knew he was always giving you the passwords to most of his things so I accepted the same from the box but I was shocked when he said no.”“I looked at him with so much surprise that he was forced to notice it and then he laughed lightly and told me. I gave the passwords to all the boxes including this one to Mr. Wright, this box in your care because it has something so special inside
“I wasn’t expecting anything less. He did this on purpose.” Ronald burst out.“You shouldn’t say that Ronald, perhaps he also forgot. Mr. Johnson should have been the one to remind him and not wait for him.” Rosy replied.Ronald was pained that what their father had specifically given to them had to pass through the hands of his worst enemy. When their father died, he didn’t leave any Will because he had always told them that the company belonged to both of them and they were one no matter what happened.Rosy one day had asked who would become the Ceo and he had answered with, “Whoever feels he can control the company between the both of you should be the Ceo. I did train Rosy and I expect her to train you, Ronald.”“The both of you are the Ceo, Rosy can be the Chairman while You Ronald can be the Ceo but you want to do it, I don’t want you both to fight because of the company.”After their mom left, he has always taught them that they were alone and one and nobody should make them fi
