My Dad remained stunned where he stood facing my Mom. "What exactly are you talking about?" My Dad said. "Mom calm down," Diana said knowing when my Mom was angry and that her anger couldn't be controlled. "I told you, I didn't do anything wrong," My Dad said and brought out dollar notes that he was given by Lincoln and was counting and beaming with smiles. "Drop that down!" My Mom said hitting the dollar notes from his hands and making them to fall on the ground. "What is wrong with you, those are the money that Veronica's new husband, Lincoln gave, it's like bride price, consider it that way, only that it's a top that's seven hundred dollars," My Dad said My Mom became furious even though Diana was trying to calm her down. "Calm down mom," She pleaded. "No I am not going to calm down, he is going to explain to me why he had to force his daughter to get married to who she doesn't wants," My Mom said. "Ooh so that's what this is all about, I told you before,
"What the hell do you want from me again? Why are you at my office?" I blurted out in anger. "Point of correction, it's also my office, everything here is mine, they all belong to me," Lincoln said. I felt like throwing the glass ugh that was on my table at him in anger but I knew that I had to bottle it all in. "I just came to check on you especially the fact that you just left the house that early without eating breakfast," Lincoln said. I felt stunned that such a man would show unnecessary concern for me, but of course, since I was his new wife, he had no other choice. "As you can see, I did what you wanted," I said facing him with a look of disdain. "I know, of course, you had no other choice," He said giving out his evil smile. "Of course, I had every choice, I could have fled from you with Jake and his Dad, but I couldn't leave my family," I said. "Come on, quit being silly, after all, I was fair enough, Jake still got to remain working in the c
"Hey, Jake, I understand how you feel, I was just coming from Veronica's office, and she explained to me that it was because her Dad threatened that Paul who had squandered the company would return to squander more," Viola said. Jake was stunned. He couldn't believe that Veronica would say such a thing to Viola. "You mean she said those things to you?" Jake enquired curiously. "Ooh yes, you know that she was even ready to leave all her company just to be with you, but she couldn't allow Paul to ruin it again and that was what happened, she beer meant to marry Lincoln, but she had no other choice," Viola said. Jake now understood what happened that I had to lie to secure others and he was mature enough to know that he had to do the same also. "Ooh yeah, that was probably what happened, although I understood what happened, yet am still deeply hurt, she was to be my mistress and U was to be her playboy then I fell deeply in love with her and now my heart is broken,"
"Diana, it's you," Thomas said and Diana hugged him where he sat. "My daughter," Thomas said smiling. Thomas knew that he had been close with the Hargreaves and had considered bit I and my sister as his daughters. "Yes, it's me," Diana said. Diana wasn't happy at all and even though she tried to hide it from Thomas even though she didn't want to, she couldn't. "Have your seat," Thomas said understanding the main reason why she was there. "So I am not happy with what's going on, " Diana said as she sat on one of the lounges in the lounge room. "I mean, you are the Chairman, isn't there any way that you could try and maybe fire him temporarily since that might make him come back to his senses," Diana said facing Thomas. "Honestly, l also told this same thing to Veronica, I couldn't because he was able to find a way to put everything into his name, he deceived me into signing a normal document for a company deal as the chairman of the company, and neither did I knew
My Dad had woken. He knew he didn't enjoy his night, because he kept hoping that my Mom would return to e room and she never did. He tiptoed to my Mom room and saw that she hadn't gotten out yet and it was still locked. "She must still be asleep by now," He muttered to himself as he went to the dining room to have his breakfast. Has he had his breakfast, he kept thinking about the hot arguments he had with my Mom the other night. Although a part of him wanted to feel guilty, since it was about money, he refused to feel guilty. To him, he felt he was doing what wasasasas best for his daughter and every decision he had taken so are was for her good. He remembered when he was forced to let Veronica's younger brother Ceo instead of Veronica punish her for rejecting Lincoln. Now there was no more need for that especially the fact now that I was being triededebyded to Lincoln. After he had finished eating, he waited for thirty minutes and wondered why my Mom
Diana entered her husband's mansion and couldn't hide the emotion she was feeling. "Dear, what's the matter, did you get any feedback?" Robert said curiously. Robert knew about Diana going to seek help from Thomas too and was kind of expecting good results. Diana shook her head. she remembered that it negative feedback. "Dear you wouldn't believe that lunatic, Lincoln tricked his father into signing all properties to go to his name, everything, including the father's mansion," Diana said and Robert was stunned. "What a man!" Robert blurted out in surprise about what he just heard, he couldn't believe that could have been the case about Lincoln. "Ooh my goodness," He said. "No wonder, it was as if his hands were tied, that he couldn't control his son because I know him, he would have probably fired his sin from being the CEO," Robert said. "Yes, that would have happened, he is helpless, you needed to have seen how the situation was," Diana said. "This i
The tension was still strong because I knew Lincoln men that well, they were that smart to know that I had stayed at the elevator for that long. I finally opened the elevator door and saw two of them coming at me as if to investigate why I had stayed in the elevator that long. "What's wrong, so I can't move anywhere anymore?" I blurted out dramatically, I knew that I had to ensure that they don't find out that it was Jake that was in the elevator. One of the men just look inside the elevator where I had come out from. Fortunately, Jake had hidden at the corner so it was except they had entered that would have been the only way they would have seen Jake. They finally escorted me back to my office and I felt relieved that they couldn't catch him. Jake was still at the elevator, he knew that she had to change the location. the elevator and boarded it back to his office floor... Thomas was speaking with Lincoln on the phone at his mansion. "So why did you ca
I entered Lincoln's mansion, ai had just returned from the office and couldn't help but think about the time I spent with Jake at the elevator. I knew deeply that I wished every day could be like what I had experienced that day. I knew that my recent condition was a very pitiful one and one that I didn't like. Kara came up to me to collect my loads from me, and I felt like not giving her. "Don't worry madam, I will help to keep them in the room," Kara said hesitating to carry the bag from me. "Thanks, Kara," I said and sat on the couch. I was exhausted from today's activities. "Madam, I just want to have a little conversation with you, please, In case you need any help, please don't forget to let me know, I know that you must be going through a lot," kara said. I knew that Kara would be in her late thirties and felt relieved by those words she said. I felt happy that she was making me consider her like a big sister, even think it was as if I was the b
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
