"I don't know why you want me to go with you.""Come on, you know I like it when we both meet new investors.""Fine, I will go with you." He needs to meet an investor in the next city, so he and Craig fly on their jet, they both don't say anything to each other, Craig's tears are dropping, and Gregory is looking at him. He had cried through the trip when they alight, Gregory pulls him into a hug. "What?" "You are sad." Craig hugged him back. "I am scared, I might die, and I might not return to tell Cathy my feelings." Gregory looked at him and pushed his head. "Are you nuts? You can't die, if you die then I will take my life." Craig laughed to cover his sadness. "So you want Whitney to be a widow at a young age?" Gregory laughed hard. "I will just lodge in another hotel since it's your client that booked this hotel for you." "Alright, we meet up here tomorrow morning, so we can go together." Craig nodded, he walked into the hotel leaving Craig to go book another. ****Cathy has be
Gregory is sleeping peacefully then he wants to turn, he realizes his hand is touching someone else, so he opens his eyes"Aw!" He screamed as he saw a girl lying beside him, she was molested. "Shit! How did this happen?" He closed his eyes trying to recollect but the only thing he could remember was room service giving him the food and drinks, he ordered. "No, this can't be happening." He grabbed his phone. "Craig picks up, I beg you." He finally picked, and Gregory is in fear."What is it? I remember, I just want to rest...""Wait, I am not talking about that, I wake up only to see a girl in my room." "What?" "I don't know...'"Wait, I am coming over there, and don't let anyone in the room." "Okay, I will." The call dies off, and Gregory rushes to the girl, he is trying to wake her up but to no avail. Craig hit on the door when he got there, his mouth dropped open seeing the girl on the bed molested and badly injured"What thy hell?" "I swear, I didn't do it, I only found her r
Ruth is yelling, Jeremy doesn't say a word to her, and Jessica rushes to her. "Please, I beg you, I don't want my son to go to jail, I can't take it if he ends up in jail.""Really? So, is my son that is fit to go to jail for a crime that, he knows nothing of?" Ruth asked Jessica, she dropped her face. She felt bad too, the boy is always suffering for her son, and most pain he faces is because of Gregory, nothing more. She hugged Ruth and cry "I am sorry, I was acting selfish," Jessica said"Sorry too, I was just stressed and scared for my son." Jeremy pulled her into a hug. "Sister, everything will be fine, you should stop crying, I have to call the commissioner on my way, I will go on now.""I want to come with you." "No, you should stay here, I don't want you to break down, you should be strong." "Be careful too and Gregory is he fine?" Ruth asked. "He is, he is the one that called, come on, I will be on my way." Jeremy dart out, and Jessica and Ruth cry in each other hand, Jess
For four days, Gregory still didn't call Whitney nor did he take her calls, now his phone is not going through, and when she calls, it's said not available, she throws the phone away in frustration, and George catches it. "Easy, what is it?""I have tried to reach Gregory but, he is not taking my calls and now, his number is not going through, no one seems to know his whereabouts at the office and I can't go to his parents." George smiled"I am sure he is busy." "Busy? That he can't take my calls or text that I am busy, it's just three words, it will take him nothing to do that, instead of keeping me in the dark." "Stop it, if he comes back, you should scold him badly or better still, place a lock on his legs." "Stop teasing," Whitney said hugging him. "Where is Betty?" "She went to her condominium," George said Cathy was coming down, and he saw the two. "Hey you two, what are you talking about?" "Don't mind Whitney, she is getting dramatic because of Gregory." "Brother!" Whitne
He yelled back at them, and then all of a sudden, he could hear Cathy crying asking him to stop, he pulled away from the man, he was hurting. "Sorry! Sorry!" He wipes his neck, and one of the warders is looking at him, he has the power to look at someone and see everything about the person when they hold him. "Take him to isolation." That is the only word the warder said, when they pulled him away, they pushed him into another cell, it was darker, and he hit the wall in frustration. "Handsome boy with a demon attribute." He said and left, he is locked up there, They didn't allow Gregory to see Craig when he arrived the next day, he was sitting outside when one of the warders approached him, he was that same man that could read minds, he is never going to tell anyone about it anymore because his family die because of him "Hello, sir!" Gregory looks at him. "The man in question is your brother, right?" Gregory nodded. "If you want him out, get him a good lawyer and I am sure, he need
She didn't go through it, she only knows that she has a message, Roe is inside the office with her. "Wouldn't you read your message?" "What is your business with my message?" "Catherine, I am your fiance, by now, we would have been husband and wife, if not that..." "Yes but unfortunately, we are not, so let me be and stop being nosy, I decided not to read it, so let me be.""Really? I am..." He wanted to hit her but a voice came up from behind them"Excuse me." Roland was standing there, Cathy stood up from the chair, and Roe was surprised to see him. "Good day, sir!" Cathy greeted him, but he didn't throw an eye on her, he acted like he was mad at her."Dad!""I need to talk to you." Cathy grabbed her phone and left. "Dad; is everything alright?" "No, did you know that your brother is in jail?" "Good! It's good at least, he will not be here to share my affection." "Really? Are you hurting that girl?" "I am not and don't give me that look, I did nothing to him, if it's me, I wi
"Yes but...""You should call your investor or have you told them that you were not able to attend the meeting?" Gregory shakes his head then he gets his phone; he tries to call his investor but the secretary picks telling him that he is not available and that he has been kidnapped for two weeks now."Wait, so he didn't call me nor...""No, he didn't and he never did, we are still waiting for the kidnappers to call, sorry for the inconvenience, we would have informed you before now and when we find him, we will let you know." "Alright, I hope you found him soon." "Thanks!" The secretary replied and ended the call"Shit!" He curses under his breath, he just finds out that they were not the ones who sent him a message or booked the hotel for him because the CEO was kidnapped, they look at him, and the call is on speaker so they don't need an explanation. "And who thy fuck is his lawyer that didn't get all this analysis and go look for the girl in question?" "Brett!" "Have him remove
"Hey you, you are free to go but, you are not allowed to leave town before the court case ends." "What did you say?" Craig asked in disbelief"I said you are free to go but you should always appear in court and work on that temper of yours, your attitude is ugly compared to your face." Craig didn't say a word, he dragged his wears and wore them in a hurry. "My phone!" "Silly boy here is your stuff, and stop being a rapist." He didn't reply, when he got out, Gregory and Cathy just arrived, he smiled, it was who he wanted to see, nothing was more important than seeing the woman after his heart, he ran to them, Gregory wanted to hug him but he hugged Cathy first. She was surprised, Gregory sighed badly, how could his cousin choose a girl over him, Roland was looking at him, he smiled, his son was crazy in love with this girl. "How did you get out?" Cathy asked him trying to free herself from him. "I thought it was both of you, who got me out," Craig said looking at Gregory whose face
It was like a dream come true for Cathy and Craig. She never thought she could find love and Craig never thought he could fall for any girl but now they found love and want to stay in love. Craig; Cathy, Whitney, and Gregory, suffer a lot having one life tangled with another it's a bad dream even when you have your issues. Talk more of adding to it, they finally found rest, after the curse was broken, not for just them but for their entire clan, Craig didn't become the king when the gods asked him to request what he wanted him to do for him, he pleaded with the gods to appoint someone's else in his place, now people of the clan could plant and eat their fruit, no more high death rate, Craig can paint freely so do Roe, he can act movies but they still run the business. when the two companies finally merged they hit success in the very first year, and Roland's dream of his two sons working side by side came true. Not as enemies but as an ally, they became best of friends and siblings l
"I have done my part, so, let her start moving before I get mad." Craig orders, Ruth and Jessica laugh, and they go to her and return. "We need more cash, she is hungry," Betty said."Food? Didn't she eat before leaving home?" Craig yelled, Gregory hit his head slightly. "Stop doing everything with force," Gregory said, he dragged his phone out and dropped it on Betty's hand. "I have nothing left just don't ask for more." "we will see about that?" Betty got it and left Then they turned instead of Cathy moving forward, she was going backward, he wanted to run after her but the little ones stood in front of him"What is it? Get off my way, I have nothing, go away." "Relax, we should blindfold you, if you can touch your Cathy then she will be all yours," Clara said"What?" "Yes, are you doing it?" Wendy asked, he looked at them."You have two seconds to decide or we leave," Riley added, he agreed, and then Roe stepped forward"You, you are in this with them?""Sorry just doing my wo

Two days before the wedding, Cathy had tried almost all the wedding gown designs for her, Craig could criticize them, some hands were too exposed, some of the cleavages were out, and some part of her chest was too revealing"Craig, what about this? Don't you like it?" Cathy is on one but all her cleavage is out. "You are not asking about this? Are you?" Craig said indifferently, Cathy looked at him. "Yes, I don't like it and you should know that.""You should just say, I should go with a quilt." "I never said that they should change it, I don't just like it, I want something perfect.""You don't like it or boys will stare at her?" Whitney asked him. "Yes, you understand me, someone is finally on the same page as me. I don't want people looking at her cleavage like that.""I don't understand you, it's her day, let her have it special," Betty said"I don't want it, let me see the collection of another designer, I need something glamorous," Craig said. Cathy just stood up. "It's fine,
"Did I also tell you that I love you more than life?'"You just did." 'And that you send goosebumps on me when you kiss my neck?'"You also just did.""And when you just told me, that you are Reliance, it means you wanted me to be happy all the time, you know I missed a friend and you want to fill that loneliness in me, you are always thinking about my welfare.""Is because I love you, and I don't want you hurt, even when you reject my love, even if you push me away, I will still keep coming back because I am hooked and no one will want me.""Who told you so?""I just know, I know that, if you go away, my life with be empty." "And mine will be too, so I love you more until my last breath." Whitney looked at Craig and then at Cathy, she wanted to ask Cathy but then she pointed at Craig, and Cathy smiled. "How many exes do you have?" Whitney asked him, Gregory laughed. "What is funny?" George asked Gregory. "You should ask him how many flings has he had." Craig hit him. "Are you by
"I want to tell you, let's go on a cruise, where I will...""Cathy stops," she looks at Craig. "Skip that part." "Why?" Gregory asked. "It's made for my ear alone, so continued after that." Cathy gasped for air. "After that, I will tell you; thank you for...""Stop there and skip," Craig said again if Cathy took the next word all of them would know what that first part said she had practically told him that she would go nude in front of him and asked him to make her a woman. "Then after that, I will force you to marry me," Cathy said low."Can you do all that for me?" Craig asked she just nodded! "Okay, you said you would force me to marry you but you didn't, when we meet again.""I was jealous of Zoe because she is the one in your hands, not me." Craig laughed hard and hugged her tight. "Maybe, we should go do the other part of the letter." "No, let me read the others," Cathy said. "No, I want that part to be fulfilled." "Let's keep it till our wedding night." When Cathy said it
"Thank you, dad." Gregory hugged Jeremy, and Roland stepped on the stage. "Am I welcome?" He asked Craig hugged him, his tears falling. "I am sorry, sorry for hurting you and your mother." "And thank you for hurting me, I am stronger because of you, I forgive you the very day, you let me seek refuge in your house, that is while I call you dad." Roland hugged him again after a long cry, he tapped his shoulder. "Men don't cry, you should come back to work, remember you are the CEO, and Mega Touch Aviation Empire Intl needs you." Gregory looks at Craig. "I am sorry Dad, I can't, I think Roe should continue being the CEO, I will let Cathy assist him for some time, and if he needs any assistance...""No, you should work with him, you can make the company fly, I am not as good as you." Cathy said, Craig doesn't want to leave Gregory, when they are together, they could move mountains. Roe walks to the stage. "You don't have to choose, the two companies can be merged, imagine, how the co
When the marriage drew closer, Cathy realized that Craig hadn't engaged her, she was so sad"Cathy, are you alright?" Whitney asked. "You don't like any of the gowns?" Betty asked. "I do but when you two got married, didn't you get engaged?" "Yes, we did." Betty reply. "Then why is mine different?" Cathy asked, At that moment, Craig and Gregory walked in, and she rushed to Craig. "Craig, I need an engagement ring, since I should tell you everything." "How many times will I engage you?" He asked Cathy to look at him with a sad face, he put his hands on her top to bring out the ring from her neck. "What are you doing?" She asked as Craig grabbed the ring. "You want everything twice, you are such a selfish girl." "No, you haven't engaged me, go on and do it.""Silly girl; do you ever let me talk?" Craig drags her nails. "Stop it, you should not engage me with someone else ring.""But the ring is from me," Craig said, Cathy, looked at him surprised. "Yes, the ring is mine, I wante
"Creamy! What is it?" Gregory hugged her behind, as her back pressed against his chest while Gregory rested lazily on his shoulder. "Why can't you treat me like Craig do to Cathy? Craig loves Cathy.""I love you creamy.""I know but do you love me?" Whitney asked him, Gregory caressed her arms."Come on, I do, I love you, you should know better." "But you don't show me love the way Craig does to Cathy, you don't worship my ground, Craig calls her my lady." "But I call you creamy." "Fine, I know but...""Whitney, I love you and you break my heart when you think I don't." "Alright, fine, I need to rest." "Whitney!" "Let me be, I want to rest." Whitney walks passed him and returns to his room, Gregory scratches his head, he knows that Whitney is mad, Craig is in the living room, and when Gregory returns, he looks at Craig. "How do you do it?" "Do what?" Craig asked Gregory. "Show your affection," George added he knows that, even if Betty doesn't say, she too wants such attention
