Temisa walks into her beautiful room painted in blue color and walks to her bed as she sits on it. She shakes her head sadly as she thinks of who to call. She cannot call Anita as she knows Anita will ask her questions, and she feels ashamed to tell Anita that the CEO doesn't really say hi to her, nor acted like he's happy about the marriage.Temisa picks up her handkerchief and wipes her eyes, just then she sees her mother walk into her room angrily, and she sits up properly, not wanting to meet her mother's gaze."Temisa, are you crying?" Mrs. Bianca asks, and Temisa rather stares away from her mother, lying, "I'm fine, mom, I'm not crying," she sniffs."Come on, don't lie to me." Mrs. Bianca takes her seat beside her daughter's bed, and holds Temisa's hands in hers."I already told your father that you cannot marry that man, not because his family is rich or the most wealthy here in our state. You deserve someone to love you, not someone acting cold or you begging him to love you,"
Anita recently graduated from the university. She's a 24-year-old woman, and the first daughter of her parents. She has five younger sisters. Her father is a banker, while her mother is a trader.She's fair in complexion, very beautifully shaped, with sexy, curvy hips. All her sisters are dark-skinned, with only her being fair in complexion.She resembles her mother but is more attractive. At times, her father often accuses her mother of infidelity, and he doubts he's truly her father, as she's so fair-skinned, but her mother has always remained silent about it, and told her not to mind her father and that she's truly his child.Her father even threatened to run a DNA test on her, as he couldn't understand why she's so fair, unlike the rest of her sisters.Her immediate younger sister, Flora, who's a dark-skinned beauty, 22 years of age, also dislikes her.About four of her sisters resented her, except for her youngest sister, Glory Baker, who genuinely loves her.They say blood is thi
In Benson Group, Mr. Taiye Jackson sits in the front seat of the conference hall, where they're having a meeting with their different boards of members working under him. In his other companies, which are all registered under his name.He spoke to his personal assistant softly in his ear like a whisper, "Introduce the new head to them now." Well, they sit in the meeting hall waiting to meet with the newly appointed CEO, whose name has been announced, but none of the workers have seen him yet, as Mr. Taiye Jackson is the former CEO while his late father, Mr. Benjamin Jackson, was the first to establish the Benson Group of companies. Which means Benjamin and Sons Group of Companies.They sit waiting to witness the new handling of company ownership by Mr. Taiye's only son, Liam Jackson. He's rumored to be cold and unfulfilling, and the workers know that once he resumes the position as the new CEO of Benson Group, they will be dealt with.Some of the workers have heard of him as arrogant,
"Oh, she studied business administration at the University of Nigeria," Mr. John said."That's fine, then. Have her submit her CV to us once she's home. I am sure we still have more vacancies for new talent like her; I will be expecting her response," Mr. Taiye replied."Father!" Liam quickly cut his father's speech off as his frowns deepened."You cannot just court me with her yet," Liam said, and his father smiled at him and replied,"I know, son. I am only just trying to compensate Mr. John Patrick for his good will and commitment to working with us for over twenty years." Mr. Taiye responded, while Mr. John only smiled faintly at Liam as he bowed a little to leave."I will be taking my leave now, boss. Thank you and congratulations once again, Liam," Mr. John said as he excused himself away from them, while Liam nodded as he heard Mr. John's last word, and he walked up with his father back to the front of the meeting hall while they stood near the exit door, and he spoke, "I don't
Anita goes back home with her father and mother, who arrived at her school to witness her final graduation ceremony.Her mother is overjoyed, but her father keeps his usual stern expression as he drives them home.He's proud of her that Anita didn't allow her beauty to hinder her from becoming successful in life, but nonetheless, he's still confused as to why she's the prettiest of all his daughters.Even though his wife didn't give him a son, he isn't bothered by that, as their custom permits a woman to inherit all her father's property, even though she's already married to another man, but he still wonders if he's Anita's true biological father.He sighs as he drives towards their home, as the university is closer to their home that's in the city.Arriving home, he drives into their simple compound and parks, as their home is just a simple bungalow, which is a flat consisting of 4 bedrooms, a living room, a kitchen, 5 toilets with bathrooms.Mr. Joshua Baker is the owner of the house
Mrs. Tonia smiles faintly at Anita as Anita makes way for Glory to pass with the tray of soup in her hands, while she walks into the kitchen and doesn't utter any words to her mother, but her face holds a great sorrow that her mom understands better."Anita," Mrs. Tonia slowly calls her name."What is it, mom?" Anita asked as she walked beside her mother."I want you to know that your father really loves you, like the rest of your siblings, and isn't against your success," Mrs. Tonia replied, holding Anita's hand in hers."Hmph," Anita sighed."I know, mom, but I don't care about that. If Dad likes me, fine; if he doesn't, fine. I will always see him as my father, and that's all." Anita said."Anita," Mrs. Tonia began."Mom, where's the fufu?!" Flora stepped into the kitchen and interrupted them as she looked at Anita and walked to the kitchen cabinet to meet their mother."Mom, why are you holding her hands and talking to her? Are you begging her for something?" Flora asked again as s
Mrs. Tonia didn't say anything after Flora exited the room, and she sighed and walked up to sit beside Anita on the bed while Favour and Esther exited the room too."You shouldn't be harsh with your sister. Fighting with her wasn't necessary," Mrs. Tonia said to Anita as she sat beside her on the bed."I know, mom, but they keep disrespecting me too much and are getting out of hand," Anita replied."It's okay. I can understand, but don't change yourself because of them. Keep being my sweet and calm daughter," Mrs. Tonia advised."Okay, mom." Anita sighed as she stared at their mother, while Glory walked up to sit on the bed too."I've got to go now and join your father. Glory, you go now and pack your bags and come join Anita here," Mrs. Tonia said."Okay, mom," Glory replied, and she stood up from the bed and walked out of the room, going to the room she shares with Lisa, while Flora was already in the room, arranging her bag of clothes into the wardrobe, but she didn't utter a word t
Anita couldn't say anything again after their mother left them and walked back to the room to be with their father. And she sighs and stares back at Flora, who seems worried, as they walk back to sit on the couch."What do you think is the problem?" Esther asked Flora, but Flora shook her head and replied, "I don't know, but I am worried about something serious."They sit back on the couch, waiting for their father or mother to step out and talk to them.Anita sighs and finally walks back to her room, as she doesn't know what the problem is, and she believes her mother will let them know about it even though her father doesn't want to, as she saw her father was already dressed to leave for work before receiving whatever news made him devastated. And she prays silently in her heart, "Let it not be that my father has lost his job."Anita shakes her head and walks back into her room, feeling that her father's scream echoing in her mind has something to do with his office work. She sits on
