At The President's OfficeTim disagreed with George to sack her when he presented the matter to him the previous night and he did not argue with him. He was monitoring the progress of work at the steel mill when Capt. Abram walked in. After the salutations, he sat down and explained, “Mr. Kennedy wishes to order more precious stones. Do we have any available?”“That is a good one. I will find out from the supervisor.”“It is all right. I will give him the feedback before lunch.”“That is okay.” At RakaiaThe offer letters gave the workers a sense of belonging. Their satisfaction bled into their actions that morning because they arrived earlier than usual. They were waiting under the juniper tree as usual while Peter and his likes were planning how to attack them and ruin their joy. On Richard's arrangement, Valentine and his team arrived with two trucks. They looked at them in confusion but greeted them all the same, “Good morning, Supervisor. Good morning, driver.” “Good morning
Laura hit her head on the sharp edge of the wooden cubicle and had a cut."Ouch!" She screamed and placed her hand on the spot to stop the blood from staining her dress.Barbara ignored her and shifted away from her. Meanwhile, the General Manager had forgotten that she existed and did not look at her direction while George was interested in his destination.SaturdayAfter Mark assured Tim that the Palace was almost ready, he resolved to visit Mount Olive. The old man indicated interest in the outing but George tactfully stopped him."Dad, it is like you are not satisfied with the services of your dietician anymore."He shuddered instantly and wondered if he had done anything to put Ella in a precarious situation."I am. Is there any problem?""I wonder why you don't want to see her today.""Did I say that I don't want to see her?""You just said that you want to go out with us. It means you don't wish to see her. If you don't wish to continue with her, I can change her.""It is not w
At Mount Olive"This place is fine," Gerald complimented the town and woke Samuel up.He looked out and asked with a sleepy voice, "Are we at Mount Olive?""Yes," Gerald answered."Do you like the town?" Tim asked."Yes, Brother-in-law," he answered, and shortly they were at the palace."Wow!" George exclaimed when he saw the beautiful edifice.Tim was thrilled as well but he only smiled. Richard was awestruck because he had not seen the picture before."This is a masterpiece," he said and got out of the car.Tim and the boys got out of the car, but George developed cold feet when he recalled the state of the compound. He looked at the once bushy courtyard that was decked with beautiful exterior tiles."This looks like a palace," Gerald pointed out."It is a palace," Richard informed him."I guessed right, then," he replied with glee.Meanwhile, Tim noticed that George was still in the car and called his attention, "Why are you still here?"He smiled weakly, opened the door, walked up
Now, the youths were scared and looked at the shrewd elder for his response.Meanwhile, the compensation seekers were hanging around and patiently waiting for their reward without paying attention to them."Let us do as he said, Sir" one of the youths pleaded with George.Now, Elder Kefas was on top of the world after the youths accepted his proposal over George's and he resolved to flaunt it.He inched closer to him and boasted rudely, "They know who to obey."In a flash, George released his bottled-up anger on him, "(Slap. Slap) How dare you come close to me?" He asked him indignantly."Huh!" Tim exclaimed and looked at the elder.The others were not left out. The Duke was surprised and began to walk towards them. To prove that he was still the local champion, he tried to attack George with vengeance and vehemence but he got more than he bargained for. Richard blocked him and cleared his two legs off the ground and he landed on the floor."What does he want to do?" George asked cal
Previously, he was skeptical about the admittance of the act but when he perceived that they were harmless, he accepted, “Yes, Sir.”To amuse himself, he asked further, “I thought you exonerated yourself from the act previously.”“You are right but I just recalled that in addition to praying for him to die, I teamed up with Cecilia and planted a poisonous mushroom in his house. As you can see, I worked harder than everyone,” he admitted joyously.Nevertheless, his assertion did not augur well with the others and they murmured. Although they did not speak out, Tim could read their facial expressions. He looked at Elder Kefas' wife and inquired, “Is your name on this list?”“Yes, Sir. My husband informed me about it.”“I see. Why was your name on the list?”“I don't know, Sir,” she answered innocently.Now, George was emotional. He thought of how his father agonized in pain for several years with no medical help and walked back to the car. Tim watched him for a while before he faced th
At Tim's House The outing was a joyous one for the family but Tim wished to know why George was disrespectful and invited him to his study.“What happened in the morning, George? I told you that I don't want the boys to come with us but you were bent on having your way,” he asked him angrily.Tim regretted his actions when he saw his wet eyes because his confidence may be harmed. He locked eyes with him for a while and looked away without a word. They were silent for some minutes before he spoke.“I grew up without siblings and it was difficult for me. They are the only siblings I have and I can't see them sad.”Tim was calm but digested his words. Afterward, he declared, “We both suffered the same thing as children, but we should not over-pamper them because of our pasts.”Instead of answering, he looked askance at him, and he continued, “If not, they may never be independent, and that is not good for any of us.”“I got it, Boss. I will be careful next time,” he promised him.“That
Her looks explained why she greeted them wrongly and they did not respond. Likewise, Barr. Gibson went straight to the point. He brought out the subpoena from his folder and stretched it to her. “Kindly go through this, Miss Dickson and acknowledge the receipt by signing here,” he said and pointed at the spot where she would sign.“What is it again, Barrister,” she asked in despair and began to read while they focused on her.If Tim was not dead, she would have concluded that he got the news after Dr. Robinson released the video. Since he was dead, he concluded that the barrister must have done that. All the same, She dried her tears, which made the write-ups blurry, and continued reading.“Oh, my God,” she staggered backward and screamed when she saw her offense.The barrister supported her from the back and stopped her from slumping. When she was stable, she continued.Afterward, she faced the barrister and said, “Point of correction, Barrister, I did not abort any twins.”“Just si
He collected the pack happily and appreciated her, “Wow! Thank you so much for this, Mrs. Gilchrist.”“Think nothing about it. I hope to have you by the next holiday,” she answered happily.“I hope so as well.”The Head of State's Chief security officer and other staff members were not left out. They gave him suitable gifts for a student and he was delighted. He appreciated them one after the other. Later, Tim came to pick him up. Since it was his last day, he decided to see the Head of State.After the salutation, he offered him a seat, and Tim appreciated him, “Thank you, Your Excellency, for absorbing my brother. He had learned a lot.”“You don't need to bother. He is a good boy.”“Thank you for the compliment. We shall be on our way.”“Wait a minute. What will he like as a gift?” The head of state asked and he waited.“I don't think you have to bother yourself. Let him learn how to serve out free will.”“You are right but my office will take care of his term school fees. I think t
