Mr Green used an alternative route instead of the main road. He heard the police sirens and he knew they had found out the warrant he brought was fake.

"What are we going to do with him?" Jacqueline asked.

"What do you mean by that? He is my son," Mr Green replied.

"I know but why will you use the taser on him? It is because he is not agreeing with you. How sure are you that he will not be your downfall?" Jacqueline pointed out.

"Blood does not betray blood. I am his father and it is enough reason not to betray me. For now, he is just shocked. He only needs time," Mr Green replied getting agitated

"You do forget that for more than twenty years of his life, you have been absent. What makes you think he would accept you with open arms?" Jacqueline questioned

"When he sees what I have done for him," Mr Green replied making a turn onto the main road.

"Hmmm," Jacqueline made a sound.

"Jacqueline, he is my flesh and blood. And in case you have not noticed, I am not getting any younger. W

    At Mr Green's new location, he was sitting on a chair looking at Jeremy who had been tied up a chair. Jacqueline sat on the side enjoying a lollipop"What do you want from me?" Jeremy yelled and Mr Green frowned"Do I look like the enemy? I got you out of prison after Ethan left you there to rot for a crime you didn't commit," Mr Green yelled at him and Jeremy just stared at him."Ethan put me in prison. You showed up out of the blue and decided to release me from prison," Jeremy scuffed. "How old are you?" Jeremy asked and both Mr Green and Jacqueline exchanged glances returning their gaze to Jeremy with a frown. "What do you need that for?" Mr Green asked with a frown, annoyed Jeremy was not cooperating with him. "I just want to be sure your grey hair and looks came with time," Jeremy replied and Mr Green frowned. Jacqueline felt she had heard enough insults from Jeremy directed at the man she loves. She got up and entered the first bedroom of the two-bedroom apartment they were

    "I never forgot about you. I miss you so much even though I tried to deny it. I knew I missed you so much," Ethan said with a smile and Olivia lowered her head shyly.Ethan went to the penthouse after dropping Olivia off at her apartment."You wanted to be with her?" Me Carter asked seeing Ethan walk in with a long face."Yes. I may have taken the most hasty decision and divorced her but I never stopped loving her. I think it is the reason why I was never able to bond with Jacqueline," Ethan confessed."Well, I believe you have learnt a lesson from this?" Mr Carter asked"Yes, I have," Ethan acknowledged."How did it go with your mum?" Me Carter asked"She never said a word to me. I don't know if she was able to make me out," Ethan said sadly."She is still in shock I believe and probably bothered by the turn of events," Mr Carter explained."Tomorrow we start the recovery process. You start the divorce process and my men will go search for Jeremy," Mr Carter said and Ethan nodded.Th

    It was soon 6 p.m. and Olivia was not back home. Ethan had started the process for a divorce and had returned to Olivia's apartment after helping his father with a few things. He called Olivia's phone when it was quarter to 7 p.m. and there was still no sign of her but her phone was off."Dad, Olivia is still not home," Ethan announced to his father"I am coming over," Mr Carter replied and ended the call.Mr Carter dialled Andrews's number and brought the phone to his ears and patiently waited for it to connect."Andrews, meet me at Olivia's apartment," Mr Carter said and ended the call after Andrews had acknowledged. Mr Carter grabbed his car keys and headed for the exit. He pressed for the elevator and entered once it was open. Waiting for the elevator to get to the ground floor felt like forever. The beeping sound of the elevator brought some relief to Mr Carter for the long wait inside the machine. He stepped out of the elevator and quickly sat behind the wheel and drove out of

    "Jeremy, your friend," Olivia added "What!" all three men said in unison. "Why will Jeremy take over my company?" Ethan said and pulled out his phone to call Jeremy "What are you doing, Ethan," Mr Carter seeing Ethan was on his phone "Calling Jeremy," Ethan replied and brought the phone to his ears "No need son. He would not answer," Mr Carter said putting both hands into his pocket. "How did you know?" Ethan questioned with a frown bringing his hand down after the phone had rung severally but no one answered. "It is complicated. Let's all go home and I will tell you. Olivia is already tired," Mr Caryer suggested and Ethan nodded pulling Olivia with him. They all head back to the car. Ethan sat in the back seat with Olivia and Mr Carter in the co-driver seat with Andrews behind the wheel. Andrews brought the car to live and headed for the main road. Olivia rested her head on Ethan's shoulders and Ethan wrapped his hands around her. Mr Carter asked Andrews to drive to the p

    "Before I met Olivia's mother, I was a con artist, just like Mr Green," Mr Carter said and Andrews and Ethan's jaw dropped. "I was raised in the orphanage but they schooled me to a senior high level. I don't know what happened to my parents but that was something I was not interested in so I never bothered to find out. Life as it is was already difficult. I needed to survive after running away from the orphanage. The treatment there was bad. I could not get any proper job and ended up living off people either by asking or stealing," Mr Green narrated "I met Mr Green, also a teenager like my life. He had lived on the streets longer than me who just run away from the orphanage. He taught me everything I knew about con. We were making good money so I never saw anything wrong with it. I lived this life for a year. One day, Mr Green came to me talking about a big con," Mr Carter narrated; ******** A couple of years back ************** "Hey, Carter," came Mr Green's voice "Green?"

    "Martin was in the hospital. I didn't know he was from a worthy family. Everything was pinned on me and I was sentenced. As for Mr Green, he vanished into thin air," "Okay, so what did Mr Martin mean by his statement?" Ethan asked looking at Mr Carter. "When I was finally released from prison, I had lost it all. Our little hideout was gone. No shelter, nothing. All my efforts to get a decent job proved futile because I was an ex-convict," Mr Carter continued. "I walked into a restaurant one day hoping to get some food to eat after stealing some decent clothes from someone's dryline," Mr Carter narrated. "I sat behind one of the tables and a waiter walked up to me. I placed my order and enjoyed my mail. When it was time to pay, I excused myself and went to the washroom with the hope of running away using the window. I succeeded but before I could run off, I came face to face with Ms Williams, Olivia's mother," Mr Carter narrated and Ethan raised his brow "She was a waitress at the

    "So now what do we do? How do we recover what we have lost?" Ethan asked."I have a plan," Andrews said after being silent for a while."What do you have in mind?" Mr Carter asked and Ethan moved his gaze to Andrews, both waiting to hear what Andrews would say. Andrews leaned forward and shared the plan he had in mind. Ethan and Mr Carter listened attentively."What do you think?" Andrews asked their opinion after sharing his plan with them. "That will work but it means Olivia would have to keep going back to the office," Mr Carter said."I don't like the idea of Olivia going back to the office. I lost her before, I don't want to lose her again. So what other options do we have?" Ethan asked"We can't get a new person employed and neither if you can go there either. That leaves us with Olivia," Andrews explained and Ethan lowered his head. "It's late, let's discuss this further tomorrow. I like your idea but I don't want to endanger Olivia too," Mr Carter added his voice "That is

    "Mr Carter," Jeremy said looking at Ethan from head to toe."Mr Gustav," Ethan said looking at Jeremy with a frown."I understand I was not fair to you but that is no reason to treat my woman badly and take over my company," Ethan said sounding a bit angry."Really?" Jeremy said with a frown"Is that what you think this is?" Jeremy added"A revenge? You think I am getting back at you?" Jeremy questioned standing just a distance away from Ethan who had now placed both hands in his pocket not bothered about his casual appearance in a public space. "So tell me. What is it then? I know I judged you wrongly and put you behind bars for a long time. When I found out the truth, I came over to get you the same day but someone came ahead of me the same day," Ethan explained "I see. I am glad you found the truth that quick but sorry someone was faster than you," Jeremy said sarcastically."Ethan, you know what? Let's not do this here. This place used to be yours and you don't want your employe

    Ethan knocked and entered Camila's room and closed the door. The moment he closed the door, Camila came to him and kissed him. Ethan froze and for a moment didn't know what to do. She was heavily pregnant and pushing her felt like a terrible option. Opening the door was also not a good idea, what if Olivia sees them? She might misunderstand the situation. Ethan held Camila's shoulder and held her at arm's length pulling away from her. "Get a hold of yourself. I am neither your boyfriend nor husband. Do you go about kissing every man you are attracted to on the street? Have some dignity and respect for yourself. You make yourself too cheap and that is why you never attracted me and with this attitude, you will not attract any good man out there," Ethan said in one breath to Camila looking very angry. "You think I am cheap?" Camila said almost on the verge of tears. "It was one thing to be cheap and another to act like one. You are not cheap, you just present yourself as one," Ethan

    At Mr Garcia's home, later in the day, Mr Garcia heard a knock on his door and he went to answer it. It was Mr Carter and a young lady. He invited them in and ushered them to the living room. "You are welcome," Mr Garcia said and Olivia stood to her feet looking at Mr Garcia.Mr Garcia looked at the young lady wondering what she was doing."Daddy," Olivia said and Mr Garcia stared at her."Olivia?" Mr Garcia said."Yes," Olivia replied."How? I saw the image, I.....I....," Mr Garcia said alternating his gaze between the lady before her and Mr Carter. "Mr Carter found me and saved me," Olivia replied and Mr Garcia instantly became emotional.Mr Garcia covered his mouth with his hand and uncontrolled tears began to fall from his eyes. Olivia got emotional too and hugged him."Forgive me, my daughter. I didn't protect you as a father. I abandoned you and watched while people treated you badly. I don't deserve you. I am so sorry," Mr Garcia said while hugging Olivia."It is okay, Dad. I

    The next day, a Saturday, the news channels were hit with shocking news of Mr Carter being alive. Mr Garcia was sitting behind his TV when he saw the news of Mr Carter being alive. His eyes widened. "Isabella, come quick," Mr Garcia shouted from the living room."What happened?" Isabella asked as she descended the staircase into the living room."Look," Mr Garcia replied with his eyes fixated on the television set as he pointed to the screen."Mr Carter is alive?" Isabella asked in shock."So who did we bury?" Isabella asked and Mr Garcia shrugged his shoulders.Isabella sat down and Mr Garcia increased the volume to listen to what the reporter was saying."The city of New York woke up to an interesting news about Mr Carter the well-known billionaire whose burial service we held at the church a couple of months ago and later sent to the grave to be buried to be very much alive.

    At the prison, Mrs Carter was told he had a visitor. She was so happy. She left the prison yard teasing Mrs Garcia and Jacqueline."You see when you marry the right man. Everything works in your favour," Mrs Carter said and left knowing Mr Carter had come to get her out. Mrs Carter entered a room and frowned seeing the person who had come to see her."Who are you and what do you want with me?" Mrs Carter asked proceeding to the provided seat."Hello, I am a representative of Mr Carter. He asked me to give you this," the lawyer said and Mrs Carter smiled."Aww, my handsome hubby. I know he would always come through for me," Mrs Carter said and took the envelope from the man as she sat on the seat opposite the man.She quickly opened it to see the content. A white sheet came out and she frowned seeing the title on the sheet. DIVORCE. "I would advise you not to give him a hard time but just sign your part and you will be promised a peaceful day in prison," the lawyer said offering Mrs

    Mr Garcia was immediately shuttered. His wife will be in prison for 15 years. "This is all my fault. I failed to put my feet down as a man and allowed all this to happen," Mr Garcia thought unable to get up from his seat. He watched as they took his wife away to begin her jail sentence. "What does this mean?" Jeremy asked Mr Carter. "I don't have to do anything. The properties will come back to Ethan," Mr Carter said. "Jeremy, you and Ethan have come a long way. I know you had your difference from college but I beg you to be a better person than my son is. Aside from honouring a great woman, he did something great for me, I chose Olivia for Ethan because I believe, that with Olivia, Ethan would be a better person. Just forgive him and let's move on as a family. I appreciate what you did. Standing for what is right despite family relationship," Mr Carter said to Jeremy."It wasn't a difficult decision to take. Growing up, I heard some stories about my uncle even though I didn't kn

"Okay, this case is adjourned till late afternoon," the judge said.The judge left and the courtroom became noisy. Mr Carter stepped out followed by Ethan, Olivia and Jeremy. "With the way things are going how do think this would end," Jeremy asked Mr Carter. "Well, at least the side of Mr Martin and Mr Green is clear. My wife and Mrs Garcia may go down together. They worked together on this," Mr Carter replied "Will you reveal your identity and testify against your wife like you earlier planned?" Jeremy asked. "It may not be necessary with the way things are progressing but if anything changes, I will," Mr Carter replied.Just a distance away from Jeremy and Mr Carter, Ethan was also engaging Olivia in a conversation."I am so sorry for everything you went through," Ethan apologized.

    "Mrs Carter found out that Mrs Garcia had filed the case against her and Mrs Carter decided to teach Mrs Garcia a lesson. The kidnap was on the stage and Mrs Garcia was framed. The documents here prove, that all the payments made from Mrs Garcia's account were false. Exhibit D shows Mrs Garcia's statement from the bank. The two documents were printed days and you can see, in one document, the numbers were manipulated to make Mrs Garcia look guilty," Mr Wilson said.The judge looked at all the documents presented. "Council, what do you have to say in defence of your client?" the judge asked"My lord, thank you. My colleague presented a lot of facts with evidence to prove his point. I must say he presented a convincing story but here are the questions; Mrs Carter and Mrs Garcia had conversations on the phone had always been about the welfare of their children.

    Ethan thanked the servant and left for his room. In his room, he sat on the sofa in deep thought of everything his father had told him. Ethan realized when it comes to life and living it, he fails to think on his behalf. He rather allows close relatives to think of him. In his anger, he never gives the one who offended him a chance to at least explain. Ethan lay in bed recalling lots of things that had happened in his life and how he handled them. Unable to sleep, he got down from his bed and exited his room. He wanted to go to Olivia but looking at the time he decided not to disturb Olivia. He heads for the balcony. The light on the balcony was off and the city light was the only light providing some visibility to the balcony. He entered the balcony and found Olivia sitting on the chair. He sat next to her and took her hand in his. "Olivia, I am sorry for how I treated you when we were married. I never protected and never listened to you. I caused you more pain than I claimed to lo

    "Ethan, I am sorry for all the trouble I caused you during our college days. They were not deliberately done," Jeremy apologised and the two hugged each other. "Ethan, please stay and work with me," Jeremy requests and Ethan obliges.Ethan put aside his resentment towards Jeremy and they did a great job at the company together. All the guards Mr Martin brought on board to monitor everyone were sent away. The guards were unhappy but since they didn't have any contract with the company and the one whom they had a contract with had been arrested, they had no option then to leave. The operations of the company were placed back in the previous working system. Employees who were terminated by Mr Martin were all called back and compensated for the injustice done to them. While Ethan and Jeremy handled restoring the operations of the company, Olivia was tasked with handling the new client's request.It was soon 6 p.m. and Ethan asked Olivia to call it a day while he stayed back with Jeremy t
