"I am listening?" Bryce said and Angela's head remained lowered. "Start talking. I don't have all day," he said raising his voice when Angela remained silent."I picked some portions of the movie script and gave it out to the characters the team had selected. During the cast selection, we allowed each team member to audition for the role. They all put their heart into it and the performance was amazing but we needed to still select people for the roles. So Don and I made the selections based on the outstanding performance where we looked at people who brought the characters to life in the most natural way," Angela began. "When we announced the results, Aaron Gregson was not happy I made him a standby support to the chosen male lead. He called me out and I don't know how he found out about my college education. He announced it in front of all. I defended myself to retain my respect. I later had a conversation with Mr Don and Aaron became the male lead for the movie," she went on. "An
Bryce left Don's office and headed for the office. He left behind a ride with two guards to take Angela home once she was done on set. Don also returned to the set and the shooting of the scenes continued but Aaron was resting in one of the rooms following his injury on set. Some offices came on the set but Don spoke with them and they left without speaking with any more. In the restroom, Aaron was lying on a bed shirtless with a bandage wrapped around his belly covering his wounded area. He was holding his phone in his hand typing away. Aaron typed. I demand you pay me extra. I was stabbed in my side on set today. Angela got framed for it but I am lying here in pain.Susan typed.I understand. You would be compensated for your work done. How serious is your injury?Aaron typedThe knife blade was not that long so the wound was not that deep but it still hurt. Susan typed.I would my doctor to tend to you so you recover quickly. I will send you the last payment to you once Angela
Back at Don Entertainment, Angela and the team had a successful day shoot. Angela was unaware of what had transpired at the office and nobody called to tell her anything. With how she kept getting into trouble anytime Susan saw her with Bryce, she decided to find another way to work with Bryce. The scenes of the male lead were shot again with Alexander Green and Ms Caroline. The production team liked the act better with Alexander and Caroline. Aaron was good but he was too rigid with the character. Alexander was very natural. "With funds available and a great committed team, we should have this movie read in sixty days," Don said to Angela."Yes, that is possible. I will get the marketing team onboard once we are halfway through the shooting so we can have some scenes to create teasers that will hype the movie. I am confident this would be a step into greatness. Don Entertainment will be in the news soon for its achievement. We are changing the story," Angela said with so much confi
Bryce continued to tease her and Angela was burning with desire. It was almost like she had been drugged with an aphrodisiac."Are you in the mood now?" Bryce whispered against her lips.Angela tried to kiss him but he pulled back preventing her from kissing him. He stared at her getting frustrated and he smiled and kept his hands between her thighs still teasing her."Yes," Angela replied and opened her mouth with her eyes rolling to the back. "Do you want me?" Bryce whispered."Yes," Angela replied and let out a cry. "Please," she begged.When he felt he had teased her enough he kissed her lips and carried her off to the bed. He laid her on the bed not breaking from the kiss and her hands tagged at his shirt buttons. He helped her by pulling the shirt from the hem ripping the buttons off and exposing his chest to her view. Angela hungry touched his chest rubbing her hands all over his chest like hair on soap. He took the shirt off and tossed it to the side. He unbuckled his belt an
Bryce stared at his father and knew he could not take his treat lightly. I just needed to find a way to protect Angela from Susan's schemes for now."Fine, I will give them their job back but I will punish them for the problem they caused. Two months suspension with no pay," Bryce said staring at his father."Fair enough," Devon said and sat down on the couch. "So who is this secretary of yours that you have decided to suddenly protect?" he asked."She is at Don Entertainment, right now helping with the movie shoot. She is coming up with some great ideas that would help the company expand its operations," Bryce said and joined his father on the couch. "The idea of diving into the entertainment industry using Don Entertainment was her idea and she put together good projects and had executed them perfectly so far," he added."Show me," Devon said and Bryce was happy hearing his father's interest in Angela's work.If he gets his father to like Angela, Susan and Eva will not be able to sc
Days went by and there was no record of anything bad. Angela worked very hard with the production team ensuring the movie turned out as expected. She and Bryce started sharing a room and spent most of their nights lost in passion. Bryce was gradually warming up and bonding with her on a level a husband should. He became very protective of her and didn't mind publicly showing that even though he still hid their relationship from everyone. No one in the company knew Angela was his legal wife. They felt he had just taken a liken to Angela because of her hard work yet, some felt her beauty was doing the trick as Angela was very pleasing to the eyes and lovable by character.It was a Saturday and Angela decided to visit her family. She had made it a point to visit her family at least twice within the month and ensured she called them every day."So how is it going with the upcoming movie?" Mr Anderson asked crossing his leg over the other and relaxing in his chair."It's all good, but it's
Bryce stared at Angela from behind his desk. He could feel her tension from where he was sitting and could also see her fears evident in her. He stood up from behind his desk, went around his table and stood in front of it. Angela was now just an arm stretch away from him. She lowered her head wondering what Bryce would say to her. He reached for her head and pulled her into his arms making Angela collapse onto him. Angela rested her hands on his chest wondering what he was going to do. Bryce slipped his hand to her waist and wrapped his hand around her waist. With his other hand, he held her by the jaw and kissed her lips. "Relax, I am not mad at you," Bryce said once he freed her lips. "I didn't want you to...." Angela began and he kissed her again silencing her. Angela responded to his kiss for a while and remembered they were in the office and anyone could walk in at any time. She panicked and quickly pulled away from him but Bryce was still holding her by the waist."Someone c
Bryce had just arrived home when his phone rang. He pulled his phone out of his pocket stopping right in front of the staircase. He had sent the guard to pick up Angela after the party."Sir, I just got to Don Entertainment Industry, Angela is not here," the guard reported."What do you mean she is not there?" Bryce asked his expression suddenly turning into a frown."Sir, she is not at the party and no one has seen her," the guard reported."Find her immediately," Bryce instructed and returned to the door."Sir, dinner....." Josephine began but Bryce walked out the front door before she could complete her statement. Outside, somewhere, in a private room of a club, Angela was lying on a couch a little unconscious. She slowly opened her eyes but felt a little off. She was feeling hot and uncomfortable. A man entered the room and joined Angela on the couch. Angela clung to the man, her hands all over him like hair on soap. "Slow down baby doll, I will take care of you, but first I nee
Bryce stared at the document and laughed. He didn't even take it from Jay's hand. Jay pulled up his phone and was about to call the police but five officers entered."No need to call, we are already here?" the officer leading the officers said."Good, this man here is trespassing on private property," Jay reported."This is how I know you are fake," Bryce said. "Let me tell you a story," he said."When I noticed something about the Davis family wasn't right, I started doing my private investigation. I realized you were onto me. I tasked some people to watch you and report everything you do to me. I knew you were going to attack my home so, I had this fake document prepared and left there for you to pick up. I spoke with someone at the office and told him that if anyone comes to authenticate this document, they should confirm it's legit. I made you believe I was focusing my energy on your mother and my uncle but I was watching you. When your mother was sent to prison, I knew you would
Within a few minutes, all channels on the TV were announcing the change of ownership for Diamond Corporation, now PEG Industries. Ivan after addressing the employees and informing them of what to expect, had his people go through the employee's contracts. He terminated all employees who were above 6 months old in the company. To him, they have worked with Bryce and will be loyal to him. When he was done, he only had three employees left. Zora who was just a week old and two employees who were just two months old in the company. "You are Zora," Ivan said staring at Zora who had been brought to his office, the office used by Bryce."I am going to let you stay and work, as," Ivan said and picked up Zora's contract. "As HR manager. You will help my boy here recruit new employees starting tomorrow," he said. "I will reduce your salary by 40% because of your relationship with Bryce. This is your punishment. I am only keeping you because you knew your place when my lawyer announced me," he
Ivan left the living room, holding the company document and smiling from ear to ear. He climbed the staircase to his bedroom floor and walked down the hallway toward the huge master bedroom door at the end of the hallway. Two guards stood on either side of the door. As he approached, they opened the door for him."Bryce, Bryce, by sunrise, you will lose everything. I am now the new owner of your company and also have the documents that make you the heir of the Moore family," Ivan said and smiled.When Matilda Davis brought Bryce to the Davis family and presented him as the new Don, Ivan was worried, because he thought he was being trained to become the new Don. When he asked his mother, she told him to focus on his training. He had someone run an investigation on Bryce. After finding out about who Bryce was, he started monitoring him. When he realized Bryce was onto his mother, he also made his men move. He wanted to be the one to bring Bryce to his knees, so he kept his findings to h
She sent her location via text to Elorm and got up from behind the study desk. She put the documents into her drawer and walked towards her closet. She went through her clothes and grabbed a sexy black small dress. She slipped into the dress. She stood in front of the mirror and was about to apply some makeup when she remembered Martin."What if he is back home now?" Zora thought. She quickly thought of an excuse to give and still go out of the house. With a convincing thought in mind, she packed her makeup tools into her bag and grabbed a long jacket. She quickly wore it over her sexy small dress. She put on her shoes and exited her bedroom. She locked the door and started walking towards Martin's bedroom door. She stood behind Martin's bedroom door and knocked. She had already planned on what to tell Martin as soon as he opened the door. She waited a while and there was no response. She knocked again and tried opening the door and realized it was locked. She turned around and wal
"Take the device off Zora's phone once this is over. I will be right back," Martin said to Bernard and exited the office after Bernard had acknowledged. Martin left Bernard's office but didn't go up to Bryce's office. He walked toward Zora's office and opened the door without knocking. As he had suspected, Zora was not in her office. He already knew she was looking for the company's document. He left the place and walked towards the elevator. As soon as the elevator door opened and he stepped inside, Elorm took a peek at the hallway. He heard the footsteps in the hallway and next was Zora's office door opening which was the office next to his. This is why he came out to see who it was once he heard the elevator door open. He caught sight of Martin's back before he entered the elevator."Hmm, if I want I can take Zora away from you and you will not stand a chance. I know her better than you but that is not my motive now. It's a shame, you will all go six feet under soon," Elorm though
Bernard was in his office when his monitoring device picked up Elorm's conversation. He recorded everything.The day went by normally, with everyone in the office going about their duties. Elorm appeared to be showing how committed he was to his new job, which left Zora confused about who he was and his intentions. She knew there was no evidence that Elorm indeed poisoned Angela, but one thing was clear: He lied about his health condition."Was it to get my attention and get back with me?" Zora thought while sitting behind her desk in her office.She recalled things that had happened since the day Elorm showed her his medical report and she thought he was dying. He had kissed her that day. He unexpectedly kissed her again during the company launch and at the hospital, he almost took things beyond a mere kiss, had she not had the will to stop him. He was going to take her right there on the couch with Angela lying on a bed in a coma in the same room with them. "He just wanted to win m
"He used you to harm Angela. I am going to use you to punish him," Bryce said and Zora raised her head to stare at him. "Now listen to me carefully. Tomorrow, you will go to the office and act normal. By normal I mean he must know that you know his correct health status. Onboard him and let him start work," he added and Zora expressed confusion."Is that all that I am supposed to do?" Zora asked staring at Bryce."Yes, give him the job, and don't change your attitude toward him," Bryce echoed, and Zora nodded. "I am done," he said and at that moment Angela woke up."Zora, you are here?" Angela said drawing everyone's attention in her direction. Zora smiled and walked up to her and stood by her bedside. She held Angela's hand in hers and smiled."I am glad you are awake. How are you?" Zora asked and Angela smiled.Bryce and Martin just stared at the two women chatting."Where is mummy and daddy?" Angela asked and Zora turned to look at Bryce and Martin."They travelled," Bryce quickly
"What are you talking about?" Zora tried to play smart."Who is he?" Martin questioned and showed the picture to Zora. Zora stared at the image of Elorm on Martin's screen and gulped. "It's not what you think. He didn't do anything. I was with Angela when he left." Zora tried to shield Elorm and Martin frowned."So why did you lie about it the first time?" Martin asked."He is my friend and he has cancer. He is dying. I didn't want you to add him to your list of suspects. He is a good man," Zora defended."Is he your ex?" Martin asked and Zora lowered her head."Yes," Zora replied in a low tone. "He broke up with me when he found out about his health. He didn't want to drag me into his problems," she added."So you want to go back to him?" Martin asked and Zora raised her head to stare at his face."No," Zora replied with a frown."So why were you kissing him? I saw you twice. Is it part of a healing process?" Martin asked feeling hurt about Zora meeting up with her ex."I didn't ki
Martin stared at her carefully. Zora's heart raced in her chest and Martin picked something staring into her eyes. She appeared to be hiding something."Zora, tell me the truth. I know someone came here. Don't lie to me," Martin said and Zora hardened her heart.She couldn't bring herself to give Elorm away. She was sure Elorm didn't do anything to Angela. If anything, she believed someone may have come in after Elorm left."I was alone with Angela. I left to use the washroom. When I came back, I didn't see anything amiss. I sat down and dosed off. I heard some beeping sound and opened my eyes. I was greeted with the scene of people surrounding Angela's bed," Zora narrated."How long were you in the washroom?" Martin asked."I am not sure but I was there for a while," Zora replied and Martin frowned."What were you doing in the washroom?" Martin asked trying to calculate how long Zora was in the washroom and the possibility of someone entering Angela's ward and exiting without her not
