Pamela came back to work since her leave was over and Petals couldn’t be happier. She didn’t waste any time in rushing over to the company’s café where they usually meet and saw her in a stunning orange knee length gown and white blazer to fit, her white covered shoe was also dazzling from afar as Pamela glowed in her own halo.

“Wow! Is this the outcome of breaks? You look so dashing and your glow is blinding” Petals wowed as she closed in on her but Pamela was only blushing

Brushing the tip of her hair to the back of her ear, she responded “I decided to step it up a bit but I guess everyone is getting hit with my hotness”

Petals paused at her shameless for some seconds before they suddenly burst into laughter together. Admitting her sentence, Petals said “You are indeed stunning, I am also a victim of getting hit with your hotness” before they dragged each other to a seat where they caught up on everything they had missed about each other.

    We settled at a table and few minutes later, Pamela and Stanley were both ushered to the same table.“Oh my! Petals you also came?” Pamela remarked innocently and I tried giving an awkward smile“Well it happened that way” I said to her, avoiding the gaze of Stanley“I didn’t know you had connections with the host. Wow! You are full of surprises” she expressed further and for some reasons, I felt the need to brag.“The host is my best friend and we have been friends since high school” I spelt out, making Pamela mouth opened for a split second“Wow! That’s so nice. I never knew about that but I am jealous that you know influential people” she blurt out and my eyes rolled immediately“As you should be jealous” I thought to myself, fanning my neck with my hand.Both Stanley and Ray kept silent and watched us display whatever we had up our sleeves until Irene showed up again, this time she went to Ray directly.“Mr. Ray, I’m sorry I couldn’t greet you properly the other time but I have be

    I didn’t know why I ran away when I didn’t even know the context of his call in the first place but the thought of whom he gave the order to be killed for was making me sweat and shiver at the same time.I wanted to naturally blend into the crowd after running away from his side but it was a bit difficult, fck it! I was always poor at the suppressing my emotions and I knew it would put me into trouble someday.Suddenly, I felt a hand on my shoulder and I jumped with a little shout before turning to see the same person I was running from standing right in front of me.My mouth parted open but words wouldn’t come out of my throat no matter how I tried.“What’s wrong? Is something the matter?” he asked, his brows raising alongside his wordsWhat’s wrong? Man, you just ordered for a killing few minutes ago and you are right now in front of me, with your hands in your pocket and an innocent face as if you did nothing.“Nothing, What… what.. could.. I mean” I became disorganized before I to

I wanted to wait till Monday before I show it to Pamela but the seriousness of what happened in the video made it impossible for me to wait till that time.I picked up my phone and put a call through but she wasn’t picking up no matter how hard I called. Her phone kept ringing till I had no choice but to stop calling, hoping that she would call back when she sees the crazy several missed calls.I wasn’t supposed to go to the company since it was a Saturday but I threw on some clothes and went to work in order to garner some information about the said woman in the video and even the monster husband.On getting to the company, I was helped by the security with the library and I got access to their information at the employee session.“She worked here for quite a long time.

    BEA’S POVAt the question of Petals, I didn’t know when I broke down into a heartbreaking sob. The memories of her that flashed in front of me were devastating. She was a generous person that didn’t deserve all the ordeal that she went through in the hands of everyone who did evil to her.“When I first joined the company, she was the only one that extended her hand to me. She made sure that I was comfortable and taught me everything I didn’t know. I was able to blend in this way because of Vera” I explained, trying to mop the tears all over my face“Did Tina and Amanda bully you too?” She asked, leaning forward“They tried to do that but Vera saved me and took the hits for me” I responded“You told me earlier that she was generous with all her things, why did they pick on her then?” she questioned“Her husband got himself a mistress and stopped doing everything he was doing for her previously. Everyone started noticing and asked her but she was always keeping silent which got them ang

    I couldn’t believe what I saw on the news. How could they release him just like that when the evidence we sent in was so clear and glaring? Nothing was working for me and I knew at that point that it was their handiwork, they have been blocking every articles I posted so it wouldn’t affect them.“He even shook hands with the Chief of Police? What is happening in this country?” I voiced out, brushing my hair back in anger“I told you that we are up against people who have connections in high places. These people eat at the same table, shake hands with one another and also cover up for one another. They are not people someone like us can touch” I heard a familiar voice say behind me and I turned to see Pamela standing behind me with her arms folded around her chestClosing my eyes for a few second, I turned to face her “But this is just not right! How will Vera even sleep or rest in peace if her oppressors are laughing, giggling and walking around freely? This woman went through a lot a

    Stanley’s comment threw both of us off our feet. We were not expecting such a remark from him and didn’t even have the slightest curiosity that he might know about it.“You knew about it?” I blurt out due to shock before adding a dragged out “ Siiirrrr” He shrugged slightly before nodding to confirm. “Don’t you think it’s weird that I run a news company and I am being deceived? I run fact checks on things so it is natural to be curious and finding certainty to things and people around me. What if I am being surrounded by spies sent from the other companies so I would be implicated or bankrupt from scandals?” he explained to us and we both let out a soft “Oh” at the same time.We didn’t think about all those factors and possibilities. It was brilliant of him as a boss to have those mindsets and my respect shoot up for him at that moment.“I am very sorry sir. I didn’t mean to lie to you but I was being desperate” she pleaded, this time on her knees.Immediately, Stanley stood up and w

    Since Petals was not in a good state of mind and would be away for the time being, they were short of hand and Ray suggested that they bring in Tolu as a helping hand since she was capable and already told them to let her know when her help was needed.“She’s also good at sniffing out information” Stanley added“I know right. She had this detective spirit ever since we were little” Ray remarked, a slight chuckle dancing in his throatAs soon as Petals’ plane took off, he went to the arrivals and waited a bit before Tolu that he had been waiting for showed up. She was the first to sight him and waved towards his direction to get his attention.“Thank you for coming all the way here and I am sorry for the inconveniences it might have caused” he said with a grin and a smile appeared on her lips“What do you mean by inconveniences?

    They were all at home in the evening when a news of a body being found near the burnt orphanage and the guess was that the body must have belonged to one of the children in the orphanage because it was the built of a child. They also stated that some of the organs were missing which gave room for the suspicions of organ trafficking.Stanley rushed up immediately and ran inside one of the rooms where he kept the pictures. Since she was also curious and he wouldn’t come out to tell them why he ran inside, she rushed to the room too to check what was happening.“Did something happen? Did you find out about something?” she asked, staring at her“The news reminded me of a case I found out while I was making some research. There was a time when the case of organ trafficking was so rampant and they were kids. Their corpses were found at different locations but they had one thing in common and that was missing organs” he explained, flipping through the old newspaper in his hand“So do you thi
