"Mr. Jack, she isn't capable of leading us,” Mr. Wright said.He was at Mr. Jacks’ office, the chairman and executive director of the board. Since he has won Mr. Patrick over to his side, he just has to win Mr. Jack too and that's all.“Why is she not capable?” Mr. Jack asked, his eyes fixed on the file in his hand.“She is a woman, she makes decisions with her emotions and things have changed since she came back,” Wright complained bitterly.“Yes. A lot did change but it was for the good of R.B. The last sales were superb and unbelievable. Even when the previous design was stolen. A good reminder for me to investigate that as well,” Mr. Jack said.Mr. Wright looked at Mr. Jack coldly when he said he would investigate the issue. If he finds out the staff at the jewelry department has a hand in it, then he will be caught. That wasn't an issue to him now, he just needed to convince this man right in front of him.“Mr. Jack, you can ask some of the board members, they don't want her.”“H
Rosy has been in the winemaking section the whole day. She had this new wine recipe she had thought of the previous day and had attempted to try it but she wasn't getting the taste she wanted.She kept trying till she finally got it. Right there she thought of making two more different wines. It's been a long time since she made wine and the head of the winemaking department wasn't doing anything useful.The wines he has been making are below what R.B. is known for. She is the chairman of the ATU body but the wines made by her company no longer tastes as it used to.Mahon had told her the wine tastes were not good at all and that prompted her action now.After many attempts, she got three different recipes and wines ready. Since the leaked jewelry incident, she has always been careful when it comes to new ideas.She returned to her office looking so tired and weak. She touched her abdomen, no one is aware she is pregnant till now except Dr. Fred and the unconscious Ronald.She picked
“Kendrick, you no longer care about me. I am still carrying your child remember,” Cassandra said to Kendrick who was busy with his laptop.“I care, Cassandra.” He defended.“But you don't show it. You barely ask about me or take me out. You don't even know how the baby and I are coping,” Cassandra retorted.“Cassandra, I know you are fine. You are carrying my child and that's why I trust you to be fine.” Kendrick said and his words annoyed Cassandra.Cassandra couldn't believe the words Kendrick just said, “Because I am carrying your child I will be fine?” She asked, her eyes nearly popping out in shock.“Cassandra, I am busy right now, can we just talk about this later?” Kendrick said, attempting to discard her.“Coming from someone who just claimed he cares. Kendrick you didn't ask me if I have been to the hospital for my regular checkup all these while.” She stamped her feet on the floor angrily.“Cassandra, the company needs me now more than ever. I need to focus on the company's
Rosy had left the office a bit late, with what she had gone through. First by making wine and then seeing Cassandra with Mr. Wright being intimate and going back to the office to make two more wines so the elite wine collection could be made was a lot for her.When she got home after being in a traffic accident for an hour, she was completely exhausted. All she wanted was to eat and sleep.She walked past Kendrick's study and heard a scream. She knew he would be back, the tired her wanted to just go get the rest she needed but she wanted to know what was going on inside the study.It definitely has to be Cassandra and Kendrick inside the study. The way Cassandra had screamed Kendrick's name means just one thing, they were not having a pleasant conversation.Contemplating on whether to go or not, she finally made up her mind to listen to what they were saying. She pinned her ear on the door in order to hear what they were saying.“But why? Why can't you divorce her and marry me instead
Oswald at a bar in the night with a bottle of beer in his hand. He needed time to think and plan a good way to expose Mr. Wright because he noticed the people he had been keeping watch on were leading him in the wrong direction.He drank from the bottle, placing it back on the table in front of him. He didn't want to disappoint Ronald by failing to protect Rosy hence he was disturbed.He was still lost in thought when he saw Kendrick walk in with Daniel. He watched them as they took a seat at a corner in the bar. They ordered drinks. He walked to their corner and sat behind them to hear their conversation.“How have you been coping man?” Daniel asked Kendrick as he opened his drink.“I regret everything. I shouldn't have gotten myself into this in the first place,” Kendrick complained bitterly.“You are in it already so just deal with it,” Daniel said.“I know, that's what I am doing right now,” Kendrick replied.“How is Rosy? It has been a while since I have seen her. Is she fine?” D
As soon as Oswald left the bar, he called Rosy. Rosy, who had been waiting for Kendrick's arrival, wondered why Oswald was calling, but she answered.“There is something you need to know,” Oswald said.“And what is it?” Rosy, who was tired of waiting for Kendrick asked.“The Will.” Oswald was finding it difficult to put words together.“What will?” Rosy asked again, more confused than when his call came in.“I was at a bar when I saw Mr. Kendrick and Daniel walk in. I sneak to their back to hear their conversation. I am sorry Boss,” he pleaded.“Go on already, Oswald,” Rosy thundered angrily her patience running out.There was no sign of Kendrick, which infuriated her, and what Oswald was doing was the last thing she wanted right now.“They discussed about a will. They said Kendrick's mom made you the heir of Ruserick, and if Kendrick divorces you, the company will belong to you; that's why he has refused to divorce you all this while,” Oswald managed to explain.“What?!” Rosy asked l
Cassandra was in a club. These days, her appetite for s*x has become uncontrollable. She had called Mr. Wright if they could see before the opening but he had told her he had something he needed to attend to.She won't bother asking Kendrick, so she waits all the while for Kendrick to come around to pick up Rosy. As soon as they left, she headed to the club.She was going to get back before them, just a quick one with any random guy she met. When she got to the club, everywhere was bustling.Some people were on the dance floor, and some girls and boys were touching themselves, she didn't expect anything less. She looked around and her eyes fell on a guy who was sitting alone with heavy smoke coming out from his mouth.He had a nice body build and he looks strong also. Cassandra walked up to him after adjusting her gown to reveal her thighs.“Hello,” she waved at him when she got to his table.He gestured for her to sit with his head as he took in another smoke from the c*g*re**e in hi
Kendrick was still in awe when Rosy left his side and walked to the man standing at the entrance while everyone kept applauding her. “Thank you all for coming despite being invited on short notice. R.B. acquired this a few days ago, and we are about to broaden our raw material production so other companies can also get quality materials from us.” She said. Everyone clapped for her again, and she stared at Kendrick, who was still fighting his emotions. She looked back at the people in front of her to continue her speech. “R.B. promises to serve every one of you well with this new development, welcome to R.B. Raw Material Production Building,” she said, cutting the ribbon and walking to the door to open it. Kendrick kept looking at her all the time she stood in front, addressing the people present. How could he not know his wife is the Ceo? He regretted never asking her about her background when they first met. Was his mom aware when she made that decision? A lot of people cr

“Wifey, we need to talk when I get back tonight, please stay awake.” Rosy had read the text Kendrick sent to her.Her heart clenched as those exact words brought back memories of the past. She began to panic unlike in the past when she was relaxed.It was the same words Kendrick had texted her back then and when he returned, he informed her about Cassandra carrying his child.“Could history be repeating itself?” Rosy asked herself.The babies began to cry and she quickly attended to them. They soon stopped crying and slept off quietly. She stood beside their bed watching them as they slept.For her, she has achieved a lot but the babies sleeping in front of her were her greatest achievement and she doesn't regret keeping them.The babies were already five months, and it hadn't been easy for her but she had told herself she was going to enjoy every bit of the process and be so involved in their growth.“Maam, do you need anything?” The house help specifically assigned to assist her tak
It was Lyon’s birthday, everyone had been preparing for it because the last few weeks had been very peaceful just like the Browns had always wanted and dreamt of.Every board member has begun to act right. Those who supported Mr. Wright then and were involved in some illegal dealings have gone to Ronald to apologize.Everything was more than normal and Rosy and Ronald loved it. After giving the company to Kendrick, Rosy has spent more time at home and she was always being visited by Clara and Emma.Emma has been out of Oxagon City but when Rosy informed her about her delivery date, she rushed down. She had told Kendrick and Ronald that she was going to be the godmother and no one dared to argue with her.A specific date was not given to Rosy so she was just expecting it to be any day while she prepared her body. Lyon on the other hand has always asked her why she was always looking tired but she continuously told him she was preparing a surprise for him.“Aunt Rosy, Why are you always
Rosy opened her eyes gently and saw Kendrick staring at her. He had been up but was enjoying the view. Rosy hadn’t rested well since everything began and finally, she had slept well and Kendrick couldn’t stop watching her.“Why are you staring at me?” Rosy asked.“You are my wife so I can stare at you as long as I want. You look very beautiful when you sleep by the way.” Kendrick said.“Thank you. Why are you up this early?” Rosy asked.“You have forgotten so soon? Dr. Fred asked us to come see the baby today.” Kendrick reminded her happily.“What baby” Rosy joined her brows together, confused.“Wifey, you are pregnant, have you forgotten?” Kendrick said.Rosy sat up and then touched her stomach, “I thought I had given birth. Argh, it was just a dream.” She groaned tiredly.“You then forget because you do not have a protruding tummy and I love that. Can’t wait to see the surprises on the faces of everyone when they find out you have given birth.” Kendrick said.“They sure will be surp
“How do you feel about yourself now?” Psychologist Hope asked Cassandra.“Better than when I was brought into the hospital,” Cassandra replied.“Your urges for sex?” She asked.“I can control it now. I didn’t fall for Mr. Wright when he came that last time, I even had the mind to tell him to walk out. I was surprised I could do that.” Cassandra explained happily.“What about what he did to you?”“I have forgiven him. He did that because of his selfish reasons and I just hope he gets to meet a psychologist like you to help him too.” Cassandra answered.Psychologist Hope signed and said, “I am very glad you have healed from everything he has done to you and everything you have gone through. Today is your last session and I will continue to be in touch with you.”“Don’t forget Cassandra, I will always be here to help you when you need help.” Psychologist Hope said.“I won’t, thank you,” Cassandra said as they hugged.Max had carried the baby and they were both waiting for her out. It was
“It’s the biggest fashion show in Oxagon City and there are a lot of models here, including popular and up-and-coming. How do you feel meeting a lot of models today?” The lady hosting the red carpet asked Clara who was still hiding her identity.“I am so happy right now. This is my first time attending this fashion show because the last time I was supposed to come, something happened and I couldn’t but I am so happy to be here today.” She said.“That's so great to hear. You know, you came into the limelight a few months ago and you have gotten a lot of fans now and like we all know, there would be awards to be given today, if I may ask, what category do you think you would be nominated in?” The host asked.“Well, I don’t know as that is left for the judges and my fans to decide,” Clara answered.“Oh, that's an answer I didn’t expect. So the last one, who introduced you to modelling?” The host asked.“If I can clearly remember, no one did. I have loved models and always watched them si
It has been weeks after Mr. Wright was arrested and the investigation is still going on the issue has been taken to court as more things in which Mr. Wright was involved and was exposed including those Rosy and Ronald didn’t know about. Everything started when the police had put it on the news and Mr. Wright was recorded. Javier’s mom and a few other people he had forcefully collected their lands came. “We want our properties first before he would go to prison.” They had continuously echoed outside the police station. When the police couldn’t take it anymore and the President was so angry about them just finding out, he ordered that Mr. Wright give them their properties. He had refused at first but then his lawyer informed him of the effect of what he was doing and the situation he was in already. The properties were returned peacefully and after that day, Mr. Wright was tagged the country's bad man because the crimes he was being sued for were much. Day in and day out, he goes to
“Everything I planned failed, why?”Mr. Wright was at his house inside his room. He has gotten to the height of everything and has been wondering why all of his plans failed. After he left the Brown Mansion, he got information that Madam Kate was at Oxagon Hospital.Still angry at what she did to him by not giving him the box Reggie gave to her, he matched there under pretence. The nurses who only knew him to be a staff of R.B. and Madam Kate who once worked for the Brown family allowed him in.They had thought he must have come to see her just like Rosy and Ronald. Madam Kate was the only one in the ward and she had just finished eating when he got there. As soon as Madam Kate saw him, she began to scream.“What do you want from me? Why are you here? How did you find me.” Madam Kate yelled.“I didn’t come for anything, I only came to see how you were doing since it’s been a long time since we saw each other.” Mr. Wright said.“Get out of this hospital, we were never friends from the
“I am sorry Ronald, but Mr. Wright has been after me all these while and I had to go into hiding.” Elias dropped to the floor crying. “I don’t know how he got to find out about you getting to me but I am not surprised he did.” He wiped his tears and looked at Ronald.Elias touched Ronald all over his body and asked, “How have you been and how did you survive? I saw on the news that you were involved in an accident and were in a coma. I could tell it has something to do with Mr. Wright.” Elias said.“I am fine. I survived it even when Mr. Wright tried to end my life, I still survived and since then, it has been from one battle to another with him.” Ronald informed him.“Mr. Wright had been after me since your accident and for a while, I didn’t see his men around till recently when I began to notice I was being followed. Are they working with you?” Elias pointed to the door referring to Oswald and Javier.Ronald nodded, “Yes. I instructed them to find you and bring you here because I ne
