“And he is going to survive,” a voice from the door was heard.Javier had arrived earlier than expected. As soon as Clara sent him the text that Christopher was around, he left everything he was doing and ran down to the hospital.When he got to the entrance, he could hear a familiar voice that didn't belong to Christopher. He decided to wait to find out who was with Clara.After the owner of the voice has thrown many questions at Clara, he could tell that it belong to Mr. Wright. Quickly, he sent Rosy a text to inform her of Mr. Wright's presence at the hospital.Javier didn't enter even when Clara spoke about him because he was scared Mr. Wright would recognize him. He continued to listen to their conversation instead.Despite everything that was going on, he was happy for one thing, he was right. Christopher was Mr. Wright's informant, and he had shown it to Clara without him trying to find out.When Mr. Wright wished Lyon dead, he couldn't take that and he made up his mind to go i
Rosy was in a meeting with a couple, they wanted a lot of jewelry as souvenirs for their marriage.“Mr. Joe and Miss Barrett, I suggest you get these jewelry sets for the ladies who will be marching in before you to make their dressing the same, giving it that beauty, while for the other guests, jewelry like earrings for the females or bracelets for both genders,” Rosy suggested.“That sounds nice, what do you think, honey?” Mr. Joe asked his fiancee.“Not a bad idea, and besides, it's coming from the boss, Rosy Brown, it's going to be nice.” Miss Barrett praised Rosy.“You are right, I love the way she presented her suggestions. Since you are fine with it then that's it.” Mr. Joe accepted.“Thank you for the compliment, I am just making sure I satisfy my client by doing my job,” Rosy said.She won't have been the one to attend to them, she could have sent Jane to do it on her behalf or someone else, but Mr. Joe is Mr. Jack's nephew.Mr. Jack has earlier pleaded with Rosy to attend to
“Sir, your next meeting is with Mr. Blake, and it is scheduled for one pm,” Daniel informed Kendrick.Kendrick had just left a meeting. Mr. Blake was a potential client, and Kendrick has been looking up to meeting him. Mr. Blake wanted a customized jewelry set for his wife and kids.He had earlier approached Ruserick for it but later had a change of mind when, after Ruserick had put their bracelet on sale and made a huge sale, R.B. laughed theirs the next day and suppressed Ruserick's sale.Kendrick had constantly reached out to Mr. Blake's secretary to plead with him, and eventually, he agreed when it was getting too much.“Oh yes, Mr. Blake. Where is it?” Kendrick asked, his voice carrying a sense of anticipation.“His secretary said at the Kitchen Restaurant. I sent it to your email after I called you yesterday.” Daniel informed him.“You did? But I didn't get any message.” Kendrick removes his phone from the inner pocket of his suit to check for himself.He opened his mail applica
Rosy had summoned up the courage to go inform Clara and Lyon about the scheduled surgery. To her surprise, Lyon didn't look sad, rather, he was happy.He had told her he couldn't wait to come outside and prove Mr. Wright wrong and make Ronald proud. Although he requested one thing from Rosy.He requested to see Ronald before he went into the operating room, and Rosy granted his wish.Rosy kept turning all night, scared of the outcome of the surgery. When it was morning, she was the first to leave the house.“Aunt Rosy, I have been up waiting for you,” Lyon informed her happily.Lyon was more excited to see his father than to have the surgery.“I am so sorry. I had no idea you were up early. Are you prepared?” Rosy asked him.“Of course. But first, I want to see my daddy!” He exclaimed both hands lifted in excitement.Seeing how happy he was, Rosy got scared. She had heard situations where relatives went into the operating room very happy and never made it out, and people have claimed
Rosy got more scared when the nurse finally met with her. She grabbed Rosy's hand and took her to another corner far from Clara.With a sudden outburst of tears accompanied by a bright smile, the nurse announced. “Sir Ronald is finally awake.”Rosy heard a shrill sound in her ears, her hands suspended in the air while her body became still. She tried to process what she had just heard, but it seemed her brain had stopped working.“What did you say?” Rosy asked to confirm what she had heard.“Sir Ronald is awake. I called a nurse to check on him since Dr. Fred was in the operating room.” The private nurse said.She had to call a nurse because she wasn't told to do any medical checkup on Ronald, only to clean him up and check for any tiny changes.“And what was their response?” Rosy asked eagerly.“The nurse informed me that he was okay, but since he is a VIP patient, I will have to wait for Dr. Fred to come to check him personally and make a diagnosis and prescriptions.” The private nu
As soon as Rosy exited the door, she came in contact with Dr. Fred. He was matching towards Ronald's room, Rosy looked frightened.“Rosy, are you okay? Where is Ronald?” He asked.In a whisper, Rosy replied, “He is inside, and okay. I know he is going to ask you about Lyon. Tell him you have no idea who he is.”“Why?”Dr. Fred asked puzzled.Rosy scratched her head, thinking of a good excuse, and finally came up with one, “He just woke up, and Lyon, too, is still weak because of the surgery. I will explain everything to him when Lyon is strong.”Dr. Fred was about to give her a response when she remembered something, “Besides, Ronald just woke up, I have discussed a little about the company with him, which dampened his spirit, talking about Lyon will be too much for his first day being awake,” She smiled nervously.Rosy wasn't sure if what she was saying made sense, but she just wanted Dr. Fred to keep his mouth shut when he was with Ronald. She knew Ronald, he could ask the same quest
With Kendrick on his knees, then it was going to be a long night with a series of pleading. She entered anyway and went straight to the wardrobe, then to the washroom and back.When she finally climbed the bed, she covered herself and shut her eyes immediately. She was smiling inwardly because Kendrick didn't make any attempt to stop her.To her, she has escaped, not knowing that was the exact time Kendrick was waiting for. Kendrick crawled with his knees to her, and the next thing she heard was.“Rosy, one week is gone,” Kendrick said, his voice carrying a pain that could not be hidden.Rosy remained still, maybe if she didn't move, he would go away, but Kendrick was not one to give up easily. He shifted the cover, carried one of Rosy's hands, and began to massage.Not comfortably, but in a way that will make her not fall asleep. He kept trying to bend her fingers so it would make a sound, and even if it did, he still wouldn't stop.Rosy couldn't take it anymore as she finally opened
Rosy woke up to find Kendrick still sleeping beside her on the bed. Carefully, she crawled out of the bed and into the washroom, took her bath, dressed up, and left the house quietly.She had hoped Lyon would see her when he got up so she could give him answers to his questions. She got to the hospital and first went to see Lyon.Lyon and Clara were still sleeping when he got there but Javier was awake watching them while he was working. She thanked him as she went to Ronald's room next.Ronald was up already and having a discussion with Oswald, she could see both of them smiling heartily as they talked. Rosy was surprised to see Oswald smile like that.All through the times she had spent with Oswald, he had never for once smiled, not even by mistake. Rosy entered, and Oswald stood up to greet her as he offered her a seat.“So, what are you people discussing? It seems it's something interesting.” Rosy asked.“You are being nosy without giving me a kiss.” Ronald eyed Rosy who had sat d
“Stupid, stupid, stupid.” Mr. Wright angrily threw his things on the couch. “I thought they were going to praise me but it seems they have the opposite in mind.” He slumps into the chair and continues ranting, “Reggie, your children have done more than you and right now, I am not going to pity them anymore, ending them so they can unite with you quickly.” He said with a grin. While sitting on the chair and thinking, his phone rang. Mr. Wright didn't want to answer at first but when he brought the phone out after the caller persisted, he saw that it was Mr. Jack. Mr Wright hissed loudly and then dropped the phone beside him while he watched it ring continuously. The phone soon stopped ringing and everywhere in his room became silent again and then a message popped up. “You should better pick up your phone you disgrace and a disappointment.” Mr. Jack has said in his text. “What? Who does he think he is to call me that? I should begin to work alone. All Mr. Jack cares about is his r
Mr. Wright stood up and barked, “I should have truly ended you then.” Everyone in the hall grasped.“What, Mr. Wright, that was so cruel of you to say.” A member of the board exclaimed.Mr. Wright turned to him and, with a devilish grin, said, “Then I will add you when I want to kill him so you will learn to mind your business.” He turned to the boy and said, “If you didn’t want something else, why then did you agree to my little threat?”The boy kept quiet as he bent his head, and that provoked Ronald, and he yelled, “Speak up.”“Who doesn’t know you, Mr. Wright? None of your threats are little; if you say it, you do mean it, and I just want to be alive; that is the only reason I indulged.” The boy said with a shaking voice.“Haha,” Mr. Wright laughed. “Really? I am this popular and I have no idea about it?” He sat down and continued to speak, “Since I am known for taking my words seriously, we can just carry out the threat very soon. Be careful, young man.”“Mr. Wright, do you real
“Thank you, everyone, for being a great help to the success of the conference. We all must know that the glory and praise don’t go to me alone as the CEO but to every staff of R.B. Conglomerate. Thank you all.” Ronald said.Everyone applauded his short and brief speech of thanks but despite the facade, Ronald could see the disappointment on the faces of some of the people sitting before him.Mr. Wright’s face changed from smiling sheepishly to a fake smile when he realized Ronald was not going to call names and let everyone give applause to the people. “Thank you, Mr. Brown. The conference wouldn’t have been this good and impactful if not for your unique idea. The awarding of CEOs was one nobody had ever thought of, and that alone has earned R.B. another reputation as the sales now are unbelievable. Congratulations, and thank you.” The sales head said.“Truly, you might say the glory belongs to every staff of R.B., but we here know everything is your idea, and we are saying thank yo
“I have sent my men to check if she is with her parents because that is the safest place for Ronald to take her to.” Mr. Wright said.He was on a call with Mr. Jack. After Mr. Jack kept speaking to Ronald while he used the opportunity to take Javier to a corner and speak with him, they went their separate ways because a few staff were still around, and to everyone, they were enemies and should not be seen together.“How come you never observed it? I thought you were brilliant, Mr. Wright.” Mr. Jack asked.“I am sorry for disappointing you, but I did try everything I could to find out her whereabouts.”“But you noticed her father’s company grew tremendously. You noticed Ronald became authoritative towards you like he owns the world, and you also noticed he was no longer scared of you like he used to before the accident. You also noticed he was always happy and didn’t care much, didn’t you?” Mr. Jack scolded him.Mr. Jack was very angry after Mr. Wright told him Javier was the one who t
“WHAT?!” Ronald exclaimed holding his head.“What is wrong?” Rosy asked holding his hands.“Mr. Wright was only able to speak with Javier last night because Mr. Jack came to speak with me and he refused to leave and was saying absolute nonsense. That means he was working with Mr. Wright.” Ronald exclaimed more this time holding his chest due to unbelief.“You need to calm down Ronald. Mr. Wright won’t be able to get to us anymore because with what you did yesterday, everyone now has their eyes on you but he can use Clara and Lyon too.” Rosy breathed out.“What should we do now? Should I take them out of Oxagon?” Ronald asked rubbing his forehead.“Javier has to confirm something,” Rosy said and then waved at Javier, “Javier, please come over.”Javier came to them and greeted them after congratulating Ronald again.“Did you do what I asked you?” Rosy asked.“Yes I did and I was surprised to find out that Mr. Wright is just being a tool. There are plans to eliminate him as soon as he ge
“Good morning, Love. Why didn’t you wake me up when you got back?” Clara asked Ronald, who was sleeping beside her.“Good morning, Mine; you look exhausted; I know you must have had a long day.” Ronald kissed her.“Congratulations on the success of the conference,” Clara said.“I won’t have been able to make it if you didn’t support me,” Ronald said.Clara tried to get out of bed, but Ronald grabbed her hand pulled her to himself, and wrapped his arm around her. “Let’s remain in bed a little more; I have missed you so much,” Ronald said, and Clara smiled.They stayed in bed and even went back to sleep while they cuddled each other till there was a knock on their door. Ronald managed to get up to check who it was because Clara had fallen asleep again.“Good morning, big sister,” Ronald greeted respectfully with a bow.“Looking very handsome this morning.” Rosy’s eyes were fixed on his chest, and then he quickly used his hands to cover it.“That belongs to my wife now, and she alone sho
“For the top rising company of the year 20** Let's welcome the CEO of Ruserick Enterprises.” Ronald, who was giving out the award himself, announced. “Just when everyone thought they would fold up, they came back with another tactic and believe it when I say they are currently partnering with R.B. Constructions,” Ronald added. “Let's welcome the CEO.” He said and the audience clapped.Just as he had planned with Rosy and Kendrick, he did give out awards to CEOs just to encourage them. Rosy and Kendrick were not expecting any award because they felt it was family stuff but they were surprised when Ruserick was mentioned.Ronald watched Kendrick and Rosy from the stage as they expressed their shock. They held hands together, which Rosy initiated, and together, they walked to the stage to collect the award of recognition with smiles.All those who had received an award had said a few words to thank Ronald so when Rosy and Kendrick collected the award, Ronald handed the mic over to them t
“Wifey, are you done dressing up?” Kendrick, who had finished dressing up for more than an hour, was forced to ask Rosy when she didn’t come out of the dressing room after he had waited for so long.“I am almost done. The dresses I picked make the baby bump obvious, and I don’t want it to,” Rosy yelled from inside.Kendrick sighed and stood up. He entered the dressing room, and to his surprise, Rosy still hadn’t picked any dress. He began to help her pick a dress, and finally, he saw a brown gown that wouldn’t reveal her baby bump. He helped her put it on as she was feeling tired and weak, already having changed from five dresses.She applied a little makeup on her face and then Kendrick helped her pack her hair to the back in a way that made her look more beautiful. They walked out of their room holding hands and Lyon was outside already waiting for them.Ronald has pleaded with Rosy to allow Clara and Lyon to stay at her place while they are watched over by a few security and Oswald
“Hello my little Champ,” Clara said.She was on a call with Lyon through Michelle. Clara has made it a routine to always call Lyon before she walks on stage, and so far, it has been really helpful to her because Lyon always encourages her.“Mommy, are you walking on stage soon?” Lyon asked.“Yes baby, I am the next person,” Clara said.“Mommy, you can do it, and you will be the winner as always,” Lyon said with so much pride in his voice.“Awnnn, thank you, baby, mommy will do everything to make you proud, okay,” Clara assured him before she ended the call.She was soon signaled by one of the people in charge of organizing the activities to come closer. She walked closer and waited for her to be given the go-ahead. Soon, she heard a go, and she didn’t hesitate to take up the stage.She walked so beautifully, showing her body and giving the crowd goosebumps. The crowd couldn’t stop yelling and clapping. Just when she waved at everyone, she heard a fan call out her name, ‘That Beautiful
