At the Johnson's residence, James was in their bedroom with Serene massaging her feet. He smiled at Serene and said, "I have a scheduled meeting in the office so I will come back later. Just give me a call if you feel uncomfortable."Then he took the CD with him because he wanted to make a few copies, but Serene stopped him and said, "James, please don't take the CD with you, I want to watch it. I didn't see my son clearly because I was distracted."James put the CD down and left their bedroom. Serene didn't plan to watch the CD; she didn't want her father-in-law to see her son. She took the CD and broke it, and then she placed it on the CD cover. Her father-in-law didn't deserve to see her son.When James arrived at the office, he quickly went to his father's office. His father was reading a document. He smiled broadly at his father and said, "Thank you Dad for advising me to go to the JHB General hospital.When I saw my son my heart melted, he was so cute and adorable. I wanted to b

She rushed to him crying, “you scared me daddy, what
At the Johnson mansion, Emmanuel Johnson and his dear wife, Rosemary Johnson were sitting in the living room drinking tea. “My dearest wife, do you think I’m harsh for refusing James to marry Serene Logan?” asked her husband. Rosemary loved her son very much. In her eyes, he was the perfect son. When he heard her husband's words, she smiled and said, “You are not harsh at all, hubby, I don’t like Serene Logan as well. I don’t think she sincerely loves my son.” The surprise was shown in Emmanuel’s face. He did not expect his wife to side with him, since his wife loved his son dearly. “I think I have a solution to stop this nonsense. Patrick Lewis has a beautiful daughter, and she is compatible with my son. I will give Patrick Lewis a call to discuss this matter. I heard that Lewis Group is facing bankruptcy and no company is willing to cooperate with him.” “Emmanuel, you know that I hate arranged marriages and we promised our son not to interfere in his love life, even though I do
It took them half an hour to reach Johnson Group. Mr Johnson's Assistant, Tommy Angel, was waiting for Patrick Lewis at the entrance of the company. He took him to the Chairman’s office.Emmanuel decided to discuss the condition of their cooperation with Mr Lewis before he approached his son James in case Patrick Lewis rejected him.“Good evening Mr Johnson, I’m so sorry to trouble you” said Patrick, shaking Emmanuel’s hand. “It’s alright Mr Lewis, no trouble at all. Do you want tea or whiskey?” asked Emmanuel with a smile.“Tea will be fine, thank you” replied Patrick. Emmanuel asked his assistant to make tea for them.Then they discussed the proposal, and they agreed with the profit percentage of 5% which would be earned by the Johnson Group. His Assistant came back with tea and left the office.Patrick asked Emmanuel. “You said you have a condition, what is it?” Emmanuel gave him another contract.

When Emmanuel arrived home, he told his wife, Rosemary, that Victoria Lewis had agreed to marry his son. Rosemary was so upset, she left him in the living room and went straight to their bedroom.Emmanuel followed her to their bedroom and tried to coax her, “my dearest wife, I am sorry I was impulsive.I understand that you asked me to discuss this matter with James first, but I was scared that James would agree to this marriage, but Victoria would refuse, so I wanted to approach her first to find out. Don’t be upset, I will listen to you. Please forgive me.”“Why didn’t you call me to meet this girl before you signed the contract?” asked his wife, looking at him. “My sweetheart, I will ask her to come here after James agreed. However, I brought the contract home.You can read it.” He took the contract and gave it to his wife. Rosemary took the contract and read it and said, “Why did you ask for two years? It is too long, my son wants to marry Serene Logan as soon as possible. Changin
Emmanuel Johnson was looking forward to seeing his son. He was anxious since he was not sure if he would agree to marry Victoria Lewis. He hoped that James would listen to his mother. He called his wife to remind her about tomorrow’s meeting with James. “My beautiful wife, please don’t forget to call James about tomorrow’s meeting.” Rosemary replied, “hubby, I’ve already told him about the meeting, my work is done now. It is up to you to convince him. Don’t forget that you said you would not force him, and you will cancel this contract should he refuse.” Emmanuel Johnson was beaming and said, “I love you so much my dearest wife, thanks for your hard work, see you later.” Then he hung up.James’s flight arrived on time, he attracted so much attention, he was very handsome, arrogant and he was tall.

Zion arrived at home after 11 pm, he parked his car in the garage then he decided to send a text message to his fiancé to tell her that he had arrived safely. He saw the attached folder from Manager Zach.When he opened it he saw photos of his engagement and a video clip. He was thanking him in his heart because he had forgotten to arrange for someone to take photos of them. He was a godsend.He clicked on the video clip, then he sent it to Tamara. He decided that he would go to His Glory hotel the following day to thank Manager Zach personally. He made his day special.When he walked to the house he was surprised to see his grandmother waiting for him in the living room. She was so anxious, she wanted to know if her granddaughter-in-law accepted the proposal or not.Zion beamed at his grandmother, then he held her hands and asked, “Grandma, why are you sitting here so late?” His grandmother smiled brightly and replied with a question, “Did my granddaughter-in-law accept your proposal
Zion was waiting for Tamara in the living room, Uncle Timothy was in the study room. When Zion saw her he was stunned. His future wife was so beautiful. Tamara was wearing a knee-length red dress with nude high heels.Zion took her in his arms and said, “You look stunning my love.” Tamara beamed and replied, “thank you Honey.” Then they walked to the car. Zion took the bouquet of red roses from the backseat and gave them to Tamara.She smiled brightly and thanked him. Then Zion opened the door for her, then he walked to the driver’s side. He helped her to fasten the seatbelt, then he drove away. Zion smiled at Tamara and asked, “are you hungry?”Tamara smiled back at him and replied, “I’m not that hungry.” Zion told her that he was taking her to His Glory Hotel for dinner first, and then they would go to see a movie. Tamara was happy to hear that because she was starving.Since Zion had made a reservation beforehand, Manager Zach ushered them to their private room. Their table was dec
At the Pretoria General hospital, Jonathan was sitting next to his mother’s bed waiting for her to wake up. The moment she opened her eyes it was blurry.She held Jonathan’s hand and said crying, “Timothy, I knew that you loved me the most and you would never allow anyone to bully me. Please forgive me for the pain I’ve caused our family. I was jealous of your relationship with Mark.I promise that I will never harm them again. Please apply for medical parole for me. Jonathan told me that Tamara’s boyfriend is the Area Commissioner at the Pretoria Correctional Centre.Please speak to him about early release. I know that I was wrong. I will change for the better.” Jonathan was dumbfounded. He was so worried about nothing.Did his mother allow herself to be stabbed on purpose in order to get his father’s forgiveness?He shook his mother’s hand and said, “Mom, did you stage the stabbing?” His mother blinked her eyes, she was shocked to see Jonathan. Was she hallucinating when she saw Tim
When Zion arrived at the Anthony residence, Mark was alone in the living room reading a newspaper. He looked at Zion and asked, “How is Auntie Grace?” Zion was taken aback when he heard Mark ask him about Mrs Anthony’s well-being.Then he replied, “She will live. Her doctor told me that the knife missed the femoral artery. It is clear that Beauty didn’t want to kill or cripple her but to teach her a lesson. How was your relationship with Mrs Anthony before?”Mark indicated to him that they had zero relationship. Zion was puzzled because of the promise made by Mrs Anthony to her inmates.Then he told Mark that Mrs Anthony had promised her inmates that she would bring him to the prison to visit Beauty. Mark was dumbfounded when he heard Zion’s words.He laughed out loud and said, “Auntie Grace had overestimated herself. Where did she get confidence from? She is nothing to me. I tolerated her because she was married to my father.” Then he asked Zion to follow him to the garden.They sat
Mrs Johnson and her daughter-in-law, Serene, walked into Dr Cain’s office at 9:50. He greeted them with a smile and said, “Let’s go to the room that I prepared for you.It accommodates five people. I forgot to ask Mr Johnson if he needed a bigger or a medium-sized room.”When they arrived, the nurse was already there waiting for Dr Cain. “How many people are you expecting Mrs Johnson?” asked Dr Cain smiling.Mrs Johnson replied, “We didn’t have time to invite Serene’s friends, so it would be just our family. Everyone is busy, unlike the Anthony family who have so much time on their hands.I heard that the whole family accompanied Victoria. It is clear to me that they had planned their session for a long time.”Dr Cain looked at Mrs Johnson and replied with anger, knowing very well that uttering the following words would be against doctor-patient confidentiality, “that is not true Mrs Johnson, it is impossible for the Anthony family to be idle.Victoria united with her long lost Aunt,
At that moment, Zion received a call from his deputy indicating that Mrs Anthony had been stabbed. She had been rushed to the Pretoria General Hospital.Zion looked at Jonathan and said, “Brother-in-law, something happened to your mother, I will take you to the hospital to see her.” Then he excused himself and left with Jonathan in a hurry.Jonathan was so scared, he thought Zion was hiding something from him. Maybe his mother was already dead. When they arrived at the hospital, they saw two policemen.They approached the two policemen and Zion asked, “What happened? How is Mrs Anthony?”One of them replied, “Mr White, Mrs Anthony is in the emergency room, she was stabbed by Beauty on both thighs. The inmates told us that Mrs Anthony promised Beauty that she would ask young Mr Anthony to visit her in prison. She was given three days to deliver but she couldn’t, hence the stabbing.”Jonathan was confused. Why did his mother promise to bring his brother to the prison to visit Beauty? It
