She had her golden hair tied up in a bun exposing her long beautiful neck which she had adorned with a small pearl chain. She was in a blue-black office dress which hugged her body showing her beautiful curves. She had long beautiful legs and she spoke eloquently.

Ethan stared at her for a while before accepting her handshake. She had a small beautiful bracelet on her wrist.

Mrs Carter looked at the two and smiled seeing how Ethan was staring at her. Ethan accepted the handshake and the lady smiled. Her smile was very seductive in a way.

"Ms Green. Jacqueline Green," she introduced and Ethan squinted his eyes briefly as the name rang a bell.

Before today, he had heard the name before but he could not recall where he had heard the name.

"Ethan Carter," replied Ethan

    Mrs Carter smiled some more as she watch her son eat slowly. She knew he was going to think about it and will agree to it. Ethan is all about helping society and making good business deals. This may not be one of the things he would look at but it will help people in the society and hence will give it a chance. "Hey son, I know how you feel but trust me, Olivia was a bad choice from the start. With her, your destruction was not far and to top it all she was incapable of having children.," she began and leaned forward to continue"Look, It is good you resumed work, it will reduce the thinking. Again, I think Mr Green's daughter's proposal sounds good. It will be a good distraction to help you heal," she tried to comfort him.Ethan lifted his head slowly to look at his mother. In his eyes, you could read the pain of betrayal. Hearing his mother speak of Olivia, he remembered the day and the reason he decided to let Olivia go. His pain instantly turned into anger.

    "What games are you playing?" she asked as soon as Mrs Carter answered the call. "What do you mean?" Mrs Carter asked with a frown"Don't play innocent with me. You know what I am talking about," she replied"I clearly do not understand," Mrs Carter insisted"Fine, I will see you tomorrow," Mrs Garcia said and ended the call"I hope I am wrong about this," she thought after ending the call while sitting on the bed. There was a knock on the door and Jonathan entered. She quickly started smiling but Jonathan had already noticed the fury she had earlier."Mum, is everything okay?" he asked with concern."Everything is fine. Just something I saw in a magazine that is putting me off. Nothing serious. What do you want?" she replied "I have not seen you since we got back from the office. I just wanted to see you," he replied "Aww, aren't you just sweet," she acknowledged "I see Camila is back. Will she be going back to keep Olivia company again?" he asked "No, my son.

    "Sweetheart, you misinterpreted the agreement," she began and Mrs Garcia frowned"The plan was to separate Ethan and Olivia. We have done that, so finito," she replied and Mrs Garcia was beyond surprised making Mrs Carter smile"What are you saying?" she asked for clarification and confirmation"I am saying, the plan was to separate Ethan from Olivia and nothing more. I must say I appreciate your support I didn't have to do much," Mrs Carter replied"You used me to get rid of Olivia?" Mrs Garcia asked "Well, someone needed to do something about the marriage," Mrs Carter replied and Mrs Garcia instantly got angry"You two face double-crossing piece of shit. How could you do that?" Mrs Garcia cursed"Language Mrs Garcia. You are a lady and ladies don't speak like that," she teasedMrs Garcia launched towards her in anger but the guard immediately held her back preventing her from touching Mrs Carter. "Oh dear," Mrs Carter said laughing "You will not get away with this, I promise you,

What can I do for you?" he asked resting his elbow on the desk"I am here to report an attempted murder," Mrs Garcia replied making the inspector raise an eyebrow"Okay, I am listening," he said and Mrs Garcia's eyes shifted to the other person standing behind the desk with the inspector also listening attentively "The bigger the audience the bigger the shame," she thought and shifted her gaze back to the inspector general"Mr Carter and his son's accident was no accident.

    "Ma'am, there is a police officer outside who wants to see you,' he reported "What does the police want," she asked with a frown heading towards the door. She stepped outside and the officer was standing on the porch waiting to speak with her."How can I help you, officer?" Mrs Carter asked with no expression "We need you at the station to answer a few questions," replied the officer"What is it about and how sure am I you are an officer of the law?" she asked wondering why the police will show up at her doorstep."I am an officer of the law and you are hereby invited to the station to answer a few questions concerning your husband and son's accident," the officer said showing her his barge."Why this invitation?" she asked but quickly realized someone may have said something "Wait, are you suspecting the accident was planned?" she asked with a raised eyebrow"You will understand when you come with me to the station," replied the officer"Okay, I will follow you on my ride," she r

"Dad, come quick some officers are here and they are taking Mum away," she reported and followed the officers out of the house."Leave my mum alone.

"How?" he thought looking at the results He was about to send a message back to the sender when he heard a knock on the door. He put his phone screen off and lay back down on the bed looking at the door. The door was slowly pushed open and Olivia entered carrying a tray of food"It's you," he said."Yes, please. How are you doing today," she enquired and walked towards the table. She placed the tray down and uncovered it. She dished some cereal into the bowl and brought it to Mr Carter."Smells nice. What is it?" he asked taking a spoon full to taste."It is a porridge made from wheat," she replied "Very nice," he praised and continued to eat. "You have gotten rid of the facial hair," he said"Yes, but it keeps coming and I don't know why.

    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

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 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.

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.

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.

    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
