"What the hell do you want from me?" Jake yelled facing the men. Jake was expecting to see Lincoln and was surprised that he didn't show up.

"Our boss warned you before to stop seeing Veronica and you refused to listen," One of the men who happened to be their leader said.

Jake could see that they weren't his match and he didn't stand a chance against them not as they were in such number.

"I am warning you, I don't want any trouble, I will rather that you mind yourself," Jake said.

The men attacked Jake and beat him up to a pulp. Jake tried to fight back, but he was overpowered by the men.

"That's a lesson for disobeying Lincoln's orders, and it's your last chance, so don't ever waste it or we will waste your life," Their leader said indicating a gin sign with his hands.

He signalled to the rest of the men and they followed him to the SUV and then they drove off.

Jake picked himself up and swore to deal with them ruthlessly the next time.

    Where I stood, I see the expression of surprise change to that of indifference on my Dad's face. "That's a big lie," My Dad said. I wondered what magical concoction Lincoln gave to my Dad and why he was behaving in such a way. "What! Really?" My mom blurted out in surprise. "Dear, If this is who Lincoln is, a dangerous person, sorry but I cannot let my daughter get married to such a person," My mom said with defiance. I could see how she wanted to protect me and didn't want anything bad to happen to me. "Honey, are you o believe our daughter and the lie she is telling now," My Dad managed to say. I was stunned at his reply and wondered why he would think that I was lying. "I mean after everything that had happened, don't you think that she is trying to lie to innocent Lincoln to try and prove to us that he is not the man for her which isn't true," My Dad said. "Oh my gosh," I muttered. I was already about to lose it. I knew that this was the work

    I kept wondering about their reaction when I called Lincoln's name. "Am sorry madam, but....." The police officer stammered. "But what!" Diana blurted out angrily. Diana was already agitated at their behaviour. I knew that they felt that Lincoln couldn't be accused and that was why they had ch a reaction to me. "Am sorry but we need evidence before we can proceed with such accusations," one of the police officer salary. "Oh really? Well, the evidence is the bruised body of my lover, he sent men to hurt him and that's enough evidence," I blurted out. I was already understanding everything that was happening. Whoever Lincoln was, he had convinced the world that he was a good man whereas he wasn't. "I can't believe this," I blurted out. "Criminals, that's all you guys are," My sister should at the. My sister was worse than me when she was annoyed. Her case was different to the extent that people think that she is crazy when she is displaying her ange

    "You won't even believe what happened, I actually wanted to press charges and the police were claiming that my accusations were false and it was simply because an accusation from someone jealous of Lincoln's achievements and wants to bring down his name," I said as I sat next to him at the space on the bed. Lincoln held my hands tight in his. "This is, we need to be careful," He said. "I know there," I said. "As if that wasn't enough, I went to his office and he claimed that we didn't have enough evidence to be able to identify that it's the same man who marks for him that attacked you," I said. I knew this was the case and that Jake knew this too. "But Veronica it was dangerous going alone," Jake said. "Yes, I know, I had to beat up one of his men who tried to block me by kicking his balls," I said. Jake laughed and I laughed too. "It's funny right?" I said. "Ooh yes," Jake said.

    "I think I need to see him right away," I said facing Viola. "Alright boss, I will just go on with my duties," Viola said as she exited the floor. I boarded the elevator and headed towards his office and this time I was trying to control my anger. "Am glad that you are here, we have successfully, gotten the materials, so we can begin work on them so that we can sell them off for profit," Paul said. "How could you," I said. I knew that I couldn't control it anymore and I will have to shout at him uncontrollably. "What did I do this time?" He inquired. He had already sent that I was flaring up and was surprised because he wanted to know what he did. "I heard that you kept one billion dollars for yourself," I said. "Of course, I am the Ceo, besides it's a backup plan in case we don't have enough sales after e have finished with the designs," He said. "Backup plan, how is that?" I inquired impatiently.

    "Honey, I can't believe this, so you would want to let him squander such an amount of money?" My mom inquired facing my Dad. "I trust that he is always making the right choice," My Dad said. "I know he is going to bring profit for the company because he is always obeying my instructions," My Dad said. "Alright then, I think I know what to do," My Mom said as she stormed into her master bedroom. That was how my Mm behaved when she was annoyed because her anger was always serious, so anytime she was angry she always rush to her room or any other place far from where she was annoyed. I remembered when we were teens growing up at our father's house, my Mom once slam a glass jug on the floor when the maid made her angry instead of beating the maid, to control herself. I and Jake went together in my Limousine and unlucky for both of us, Lincoln's men, who were asked to spy on me nearby to see if Jake would respect his wishes saw us together and we became deeply in tr

    Jake looked very defiant and wasn't scared. Jake remembered how he was beaten the last time and wanted to exact his revenge. "And she is my woman, and there is nothing you can do about it except wish she was yours," Jake said. At this point, the men surrounded him and led him to a corner where no one could see anything happening. "You see, I always get any woman I want and you are a waste," Lincoln said as he signalled to one of his men to hit Jake. Jake was ready for them this time and he weaved the punch and punched the mab very hard sending him to the floor. Lincoln saw that the man was bleeding from his mouth and was very annoyed.

    "So, you had to send men to remind me that you made our useless son decide for our company," My Mom said when she entered the lounge room. My Mom had lost it now and was very angry, it was almost expected that she would smash something soon. Our family maid, Hanna was already in a corner trying to clear whatever my Mm was going to break because she knew my Mom. "Dear, you have to calm down," My Dad advised. "No, I won't," My Mom said. "Now, Paul went and spent the money anyhow and you are telling me to calm down," My mom said as she picked up the glass that had a picture in the lounge room and smashed it on the floor rendering it to pieces.

Come and pack it," My Dad blurted out at Hannah who was scared to move an inch even after my Mom had gone into her master bedroom. Hannah rushed to pack the pieces of glass on the floor quickly.

    The sales had been increasing and there is no sign that we were making any profit. "Loss! A boss that's what we are making," Viola said facing me when she came into my office. All I could do was scratch my head and was thinking of what I could do. Even though I wasn't the Ceo, I knew I had to do something as the assistant Ceo. "Is Paul around in his office," I said finally when I looked up at Viola after scratching and bowing my head down to the desk. "No, he isn't back yet at his office," Viola said.

    "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?

    "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.

"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
