Chapter 8Rosy got to the hospital within seconds when Daniel called her that Kendrick was at the hospital. She couldn't wait to hear what happened to him.Yes, she hates him so much right now but she can't watch him die, he is still her husband. She knows although she doesn't want to set her eyes on him, there is still a part of her that cares so much about him.She meets Daniel outside Kendrick’s room pacing to and fro. She couldn't hold herself from asking him immediately about what happened.“Daniel, what happened? Why is he here?”“I don't know, I was outside Madam Cassandra’s room waiting for him when he came out and slumped. I don't know what transpired between them inside.”Daniel quickly explained what he knew about the situation. Poor Daniel, he has experienced a lot of things today and the shock was just so obvious on his face.“Has the doctor told you anything?” She sat down.“No ma'am, they are still inside with him.” His voice and his whole body visibly shaking.“What ab
It was the annual meeting of R.B. where all the board members, executives, shareholders, and heads of departments meet to address the issues they have observed over some time, discuss their next business strategy, and share ideas for a new product.Everyone was seated already and waiting for Mr. Wright because they weren't expecting their Ceo Rosy to come as usual and Mr. Wright had taken it by himself to organize the meeting although she had put the CFO, Mr. Charlie in charge.She waited to get a beep from Mr. Charlie, which meant Mr. Wright had entered before she went in, taking everyone by surprise.Buzz Buzz her phone beeps. “Let's go,” she told her PA, Jane.Jane opened the door slowly catching everyone's attention. Rosy walked in majestically. She was wearing a black ladies’ suit that fitted her so well and showed she was ready to carry out her duty in the right way.“Good day everyone,” she greeted.Everyone in the conference room began to murmur to themselves and each other.“
Chapter 10Rosy was dressed in a powdered blue one shoulder cut out, low back tight bodycon dinner gown. The gown revealed some parts of her boobs, her back, her waist as well as her shoulder. It looked like a two piece dress but it was one and for those who know fashion, this was a limited design.Her hair was packed in a loose, rumpled braid which shows she was free-spirited tonight and ready to vibe to whatever happens. Her light makeup made her almond hers so obvious, she painted her lips with a bright red color which revealed more of her beauty.Kendrick wore a black suit. When he first saw Rosy at home, he couldn't believe this lady was his wife. Rosy had never dressed so beautifully like this before, she was always in casual wear.It was Ruserick Enterprises anniversary and they were celebrating it at the company event hall.Rosy refused to attend at first but she changed her mind, something interesting might take place, she wouldn't want to get the gist from the net when she c
“Follow me if you don't want to be noticed by everyone,” Oswald whispered to the strange girl.She calmly allowed Oswald to take her hands in a tight grip while she dragged her feet behind him.She never knew someone noticed her moves and the person was this guy right here, of all the people in the hall, he was the only one who saw her.He took her to the field where there was no light so no one would notice them.“Who sent you?” He asked her releasing her hand from his grip.She is a girl and there is no need to go hard on her, apparently, she was sent by someone.“I can't tell you who sent me but I can only tell you their plan,” she turned her face away from Oswald's piercing gaze.“If that's what you want to begin with, then go ahead,” He used his hand to encourage her to go on.For him, there is no way he is leaving her without finding out who sent her because that has been the person they have been trying to know and now that he has got an opportunity, he won't make the mistake o
“Thank you Mr. Mahon for coming on a short notice,” Kendrick and Mahon were in Kendrick’s office.The office is located at the top floor of the Ruserick building. The chairs were made of fine leather, the design on the wall was rumored to be done by one of the best artists in Oxagon City and the painting of the wall just has a way of making one feel calm when they enter.“I will always come around anytime you want me to, you know,” Mahon smiled. He looked really happy.He had no idea why Kendrick wanted them to meet but he was ready to know why and see how it turns out.“Mr. Mahon, you know you were once our biggest partner which till now we feel sad that you are no longer a partner in this company. As the Ceo of this company, I have an offer.”Whatever Kendrick had in mind, Mahon was so eager to know what it was.“What is this offer if I may ask, Mr. Madavaski?” Mahon sipped from the coffee he was served when he arrived.“Ruserick Enterprises is about to open her Wine firm and we are
Having signed all the documents that needed his signature, he decided to read the business new to know what is going on currently.Just when he entered his social handle, he saw a video of Rosy, the headline was “Rosy Brown against the injustice increase of wine price in Oxagon city.”He checked the year and it was four years back before they got married. “Was she a lover of wine? What does she know about wine that she has to speak against the wine prices? He asked no one in particular.He knew little or nothing about his wife so he doesn't know what she loves or hates but seeing her address a crowd a smile escaped his lips.He never knew his quiet house wife could speak in public with so much boldness. He remembered when he insulted her for being useless and he felt really sad about it.“Did she suddenly turned like this when she married me?” He asked himself.When she finished her speech in the video, some men came in and walked her out of the stage so the people won't have access t
When he stepped out of his car in front of R.B. headquarters building, he couldn't believe it. The building structure was so big, the walls were made of glass which shows that a lot of money was spent to attain this beauty.There was a bit of jealousy at the bottom of his heart, he wished his own firm had gotten to this level or rather he was a close friend to the person who is the Ceo of this company, it would give me more fame too.He has spent half of his life here in Oxagon but this is his first time getting so close to this building and entering inside.“Welcome sir, you can meet the receptionist to give you directions to where you are going,” the young man at the entrance greeted him, full of smiles pointing toward the receptionist.He smiled back at him, and nodded his head in response as he walked to the lady. “The Ceo's office block please,” He calmly asked.“Go through your left, get into the elevator, and press the number attached to the executive block, there you can be di
“Why have you come to see me, Mr. Wright,” was the first question Rosy asked him when he entered her office.“I am here to discuss something with you, Mrs Rosy.”“Then start talking. As you can see, I have a lot of work to do,” she commanded.Mr. Wright resents being ordered around but he has to do what he is asked to do, ‘keep ordering me around for now, you will soon come crawling to me for help,’ he muttered under his breath.“I saw a man in the lobby who has been wanting to see you for a long time now and you haven't given him an audience. If I can remember clearly, his name is Mr. Kendrick Madavaski.”Rosy went rigid when she heard Kendrick was at R.B. She has been refusing to see him all these while so he doesn't find out who she is and also as a way of paying him for all the years they have been married that he never showed her true love.“Where is he now?” her voice became hoarse and high.“He just left after I spoke with him,” he informed her.She relaxed a little when she he
“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
