I knew that I had a special way of knowing whenever a message was coming from him and was curious to check my phone to read the message. "Ooh, that's nice, thanks, please update me more," I typed and got an okay reply. I kept thinking about Thomas and what he was currently going through with his son. I knew that it would be so painful for him. I knew that no person should go through what he did, especially when it's coming directly from his blood... Thomas had finally gotten to the court compound after he was driven by his driver and both he and Houghton had been discussing the journey. He was anxious even though he knew that he was right to win the case. He was so anxious and nervous that his son could do anything, like for instance how he made me testify wrongly against him when I did. He knew that he couldn't trust Lincoln at all and he should expect the worse from Lincoln. "Come on, boss, I mean, you shouldn't look in such a manner or feel that way,
My Dad took a glance at Thomas where he sat. Thomas was also looking at him and Their eyes met each other. He had a great guilty expression that he couldn't hide even though he still felt right. He knew that the exact guilty feeling he felt was that he felt bad about the fact that he hadn't been able to speak 5o Thomas since Thomas was still his Bossom friend despite all that was going on. Thomas glanced away from him immediately after looking at him with a fixed faze of determination. My Dad couldn't control his reaction at that moment but changed his gaze. He couldn't help but wonder how Thomas would see him after all this. He knew that even though he wasn't on good terms with my mom at the moment, my mom was still kind of right in the aspect of him doing what he said to Thomas who was supposed to be his best friend. He knew that even though he felt that he was right, still he wasn't on good terms with Thomas and this kind of created a huge hole in his heart th
I was glad about this that even though I wasn't present at the moment, at least I had family and friends there at the moment. "Okay then that's great news just update me more about any current situation," I typed and we paused our conversation for the time being. I wasn't even feeling like eating at the moment, if not for the fact that it was made by Kara. I knew that somehow I could trust her and for a reason, she was the only reason why I had to force myself to eat something since I hadn't eaten at all. I kept looking around the dark room, I knew that any sound would Matter at that moment. So far, the only thing that had been present with me in the room, was just some spiders around with spider webs created far away from where I was seated. The most painful thing was the fact that there was no window at all at the moment that I could try to contemplate making another escape just like I did the last one and this made me mad. I knew that Lincoln somehow did it
"What do you mean by, it didn't work out?" Lincoln said trying to control his temper and anger. Michael was trying to calm down Lincoln since he was already yelling now na she knew that he was already attracting attention unnecessarily to where they sat. "I mean, that I went there and It didn't work boss, I was lucky I didn't get arrested, I guess, he isn't the kind of judge we thought him to be," Michael said muttering almost quietly so that no one would hear what he was saying. Lincoln was quiet for some moment and thought about what would happen. He knew that he had to construct a new plan and to do so, he would need to scale through this case, even though he wasn't going to win case. "Boss, you aren't saying anything at the moment, or what are you currently planning?" Michael said curiously when he saw the way Lincoln was currently lost in his thoughts. "Yes, definitely, I have a plan, I will explain to you, that's if we scale through this second case," Li
At that moment, some mourning arose in the court again and the people were shocked by my attitude toward my Dad. My Dad where he sat began to feel uncomfortable, he knew that it would be hard for him to escape exactly the point that my mom had put him into at the moment. Deep down, he regretted not being able to tame my mom at the moment. "So continue," Houghton said encouraging my Mom to continue what she started. "Yes, so, after doing that, despite that my daughter still fought back and was ready not to be the CEO all because of her lover Jake who is currently in the court here today," my mom said pointing the whole direction to Jake for everyone to see him. "So, after everything, that was when he connived to forcefully signed a contract marriage between our daughter and Lincoln without my approval because I never liked Lincoln at all," My mom said. "Hmm," Samson said now understanding the reason why Michael had come to attempt to bribe him on behalf of his boss at
Diana finally reached the witness box and turned to bow to show respect to Samson as being the judge. "Thanks you for being here Mrs Diana," Samson said and then took down some notes. "May I hear your feedback about what happened so far regarding the case of forced marriage so far," Samson said curiously and Diana was already getting ready to speak. "Of course my lord," She said happy now that she would get to speak her mind on the case in support of our mom and me. She turned to look at Lincoln who had a very cold stare knowing that Diana would really spoil things for him. She looked at him with indifference because she knew that nothing in any way was going to stop her from what she planned on doing and that she would definitely have no choice but to do what she had planned to do. "So, everything that had happened to Veronica, my bug sister was very unpleasant not just to her but to everyone one of us and non of us were happy about it and it showed," Diana
"Alright, so I would like to call on Jake now," Samson said , knowing it's time for him to end the case once and for all. Jake had earlier gotten a message from me. He had told me earlier that the judge just had to pass through some people before he would finally call on me for the case and that he was going to say what he knows. At that moment, has happy as I was that was the case that was going to happen and that we were currently leading the case as at that time, I knew how disastrous it would become and made Jake promised not to be active at all for Henry's sake, because I didn't trust Lincoln at the moment and he had to since he promised me. Jake walked to the witness box and my mom, sister and brother in laws were gakd that everything would work out in Thomas favour and my favour and that the case would be won soon all it was just going to take was for Jake to give his own testimony about what had happened. "So Jake do you agree to all what had happened today?"
Jake had informed me about what had happened and I felt very bad even though I knew that Henry wouldn't be safe. I knew that the case wouldn't work out well for Thomas. I was still busy in the dark room waiting for Lincoln to return back. A part of me felt relieved that Henry wasn't hurt in any way. I knew that I must do everything within my power to ensure that Henry was safe no Matter what... Jake had gotten home and saw Howdy who had just gotten back from school. "Hey uncle Jake," Howdy said as he hugged him. Jake knew that he wasn't in the mood at the time being but still he has to control hinsel not to think of the way he was feeling at the moment. "Not now, Howdy," Jake said gently. "Okay I understand you probably had a bad day at work," Howdy said. Henry too was sitting in the sitting room, he knew that Jake was just returning from the court case and something must have gone wrong that mad Jake behaved in such manner and was ready to find out what happe
Lincoln had gotten back to the mansion and he was very furious. Joseph had also gotten back and he was surprised and wondered why they both showed long faces and he wished to know what was wrong. "What's the matter," Michael said. "My Dad confirmed it and when I got there I met her herself, I would have ended my Dad's life and at the end of the day, she was there to protect him, now I have to annihilate them all if I want to get the company back," King said. "That is very serious indeed," Michael said. "So all the time you both went outside in search of answers proved to be abortive," Michael said. "Yes, mine was similar, I went back to my family to tell my wife Grace that we shoot elope together so that we could leave the city together and she refused," Joseph said shedding tears. "Hey aren't you a man, why would you be shedding tears," Lincoln said and Joseph scowled at him afterwards. "I guess it's because you don't have a family and that's why you have no id
Linda had successfully managed to enter through the door at the mole and went behind him to stop him from shooting at her. "Finally, the stranger who claims herself to be my sister," Lincoln said. "No, you are wrong, you know I never wanted to ever come back to claim what was rightfully mine, most especially because of the past, but at the end of the day, when I got to discovered how such a dicj you have become, I had to think twice about it," Linda said. "That's what you see me as, as the Dick, who was running things when you weren't taking any responsibility at all, I was, and then you are calling name a dick, how dare you?" Lincoln said. "Well, you have to surrender now, and make no mistake, if you don't do such, you wouldn't like what would happen to you," Linda threatened pointing the gun at him. Lincoln refused. "So are you going to shoot me or what? If you are going to shoot me now, why not go ahead," Lincoln threatened. Linda knew that she couldn't at
"Well, there is no need to worry about that, when I take it, in just a well we are going to hear the results of the pregnancy test soon," I said. "Alright dear, I am so excited, am sure this time it's going to be a boy," Jake said. "Yes, of course," I said laughing and we both laughed in unison. After I had taken my pregnancy test and was awaiting the results, I knew that I and Jake had to go to the office that day for work. While we were at the office, we were busy discussing with Viola about when we went physically to meet Linda and what the experience was. "Linda is here and she would be entering your office shortly," one of my men said and opened the door for her. When she came in, Viola was super excited. "Welcome ma, nice to meet you," she said with so much euphoria. "And you must be Viola, I have Heard about you, nice meeting you," Linda said as she shook hands with Viola. "Same here, Mrs Linda, I am so thrilled to see you," Viola SA before sh
"I can bet that we would get to get along with each other, we need to be strong and united and remove the mess that Lincoln has made of this company," Linda said. "Yes, of course," I agreed. "So, very soon, I would work on mine, and inform you when am done so that we can begin with the collaboration," Linda said. "Wow, of course," I said. "Alright, nice meeting you and striking a deal with you," she said as we all rose in each other and she shook our hands. When we were walking back and driving back to our company, I couldn't help but talk about Linda. "Wow, I love her charisma, her pretty looks," I said. "Yes, indeed, she is truly the firstborn of Thomas, it's great to know that Thomas has a daughter that can bring a good name to him, instead of Lincoln that spoilt it," Jake said. "Yes, exactly," I agreed and we got to our company. ... Linda was done with work. She knew she had started on her design and soon she woos be showing it to Jake and me at the end
"Who's, this is indeed epic, am glad that such has to be the case. I bet when Lincoln hears this, he is giving to be mad," My Dad said facing Thomas. "Who cares? When he comes back, the only thing that's going to be awaiting him, is simply the fact that he is going to pay for all his crimes and going to be arrested, so he better puts that in mind, before he does anything he wishes to do," Thomas said. "Ooh yes, that's true, I mean he needs to pay for all the crimes he has done once and for all," My Dad said... Linda had gotten to the company. Her driver was waiting for her with Thomas. Thomas had already told everyone about her coming and even the media was recording outside before she entered "Dear, it's time," Peter said with a smile and Simon was so excited that he held his mom's hands in euphoria. "Yes, of course, I am so excited, I think you should escort me inside," Linda said excitedly. "Of course, I would love to, I mean we would love to, we both are
"Yes, of course, I am preparing a plan whereby we would have to return to New York City and enact our revenge in a way that they wouldn't expect at all," Lincoln said facing. "Of course boss, I trust you to handle everything once and for all," Michael said with absolute euphoria. "Yes, so what about Joseph, isn't he up," Lincoln enquired curiously expecting Btgaf Joseph should have been up and handling things once and for all. "Ooh, yes boss, he is currently asleep, he hasn't woken up," Michael announced. "Ooh, no problem then, but one thing for sure is that I would come up with something very soon, so you would need to watch out," Lincoln said. "Ooh, sure boss, I trust you, but boss, there is something you need to know, which is the fact that whatever you must come up with, it has to be a new tactic, because at the end of the day, they would change in their tactics and what they plan on doing, one must come up with new tactics," Michael said. "Ooh, sure, don't y
"Well, there is no problem about that, I guess I would have to think about it, and I think that's fair enough," Linda said. "Yes, thanks my daughter, am so glad, I would appreciate it if you do, even my closest friends I didn't tell about you, that's how sober I was to be sorry for what I did in the past, but now I would be so excited to introduce you to them as my lost daughter and the firstborn," Thomas said. "It's alright, Dad, I would think about it," Linda said. Thomas was feeling so emotional the way, Linda was calling him, dad and he knew that if he had behaved well in the past, all this wouldn't have happened at the end of the day. "Thanks," That was all he could say and when he was about to leave, Peter came to the door. "Dear, welcome, back," Linda said as she pecked him. "Hey, Father-in-law, am so glad," Peter said as he bowed to show respect. Peter has always shown respect to Thomas because of the man he was present and not because of who he was in th
"Hey Linda," Thomas said with a smile on his lips. "Dad, I thought the deal was that you would never come back anymore and you would just leave me be," Linda said. "Dear, am very sorry, I know that you are very crossed with me, simply because of my past lifestyle and because you have promised not to hear me out or see me again, but please just hear me out," Thomas said. "Alright come in, my husband, Peter, isn't around yet, but he would be back from work, so am just alone with Simon my son," Linda said. "Okay, thanks for hearing me out," Thomas said and was let into the apartment at the moment. Thomas couldn't help but take a long at his grandson now. Everything was clear, Lincoln wasn't the firstborn, Linda was but his wife loved her so much that she couldn't bear that Linda should be brought up under Thomas's past drunken lifestyle and took her away. Even when he had changed, sometimes he tries to beg for her forgiveness, but even though she tries to forgive hi
"I am so glad you made the right decisions," I said feeling emotional and Hugging them all. I knew I was going to miss them all. "Yes, we had to, I mean, we could learn from Rosnwmays mistake, she left a kind of safety steps so that we wouldn't make the same mistake she did when she died, "Hannah said. "Yes, that's true," Jake said. "So, It's finally time," Sarah said knowing that the same way that they had come to the city is the same day and time and moment that they would be returning to Paris. Everyone present came to hug them, including, Uncle, Bernard, Aunt Lily and Samson and his family members. When they were done with the exchange of pleasantries, they all resolved to finally return to Paris even though it was hard to forget because of the people they were missing. "Now it's time for us to focus on dealing with Lincoln once and for all," I said facing Jake. "Yes, Veronica, let's end this once and for all since we started this journey together," Jake
