LILY's POV
I have a secret organization that deals with corrupt business men separately but, I do it legally.
And My Jade also can't stand oppressors but she does hers in a violent way. I think it's time I start involving her in my legal way of dealing with oppressors.
Everyone that surrounds her are a part of my secret organization but she is not aware.
But there are four main agents that we make the agency's decision together. They are all a part of the secret team I formed.
Everyone of them has faced a lot in the hands of the oppressors and I could say we were able to come together because we all have one objective and target.
"What is this?" I showed Jade the picture of the girl she beat who landed in the hospital.
"Mom, she is a bully. I don't deal with the innocent and you know that. Also I can't look away when I see someone cheat another person" she defended
"Your techniques are wrong. I told you" I cautioned.
"What else was I supposed to do and besides the girl has a soft skin so each soft punch i delivered was just cutting a part and bleeding" she said still trying to defend.
"Maybe you will have to stop your martial art training then. I think you are becoming the oppressor yourself with the martial art training you are taking" I said in conclusion and she gasps in surprise.
"No mom, you can't do that" she said.
"Oh, I have done it. You just haven't realised" I said firmly. Maintaining a firm eye contact with her and the stare turned to a contest of who is stronger.
In the end she had to submit. She flagged and dropped her shoulder to admit she lost.
"Ok I'm sorry. It... It was just one last job" she said
"One Last Job? Did you say One Last Job? Do you know how many of your "ONE LAST JOB" I've paid for? Do you know how much I had to give Policia to let go of this? You know how much I had to use to settle the victim's family?" I said angrily.
"But you have the money mom. Regardez autour de vous, Look around, nothing has changed or worsen. Nothing is affected. Business is still booming" she said.
Oh this girl doesn't know anything. I wondered.
She is just talking as an highschooler.
Truly, I have the money. My organization is now top 5 in France and top 20 in the whole world but it's not about the money. It's the reputation that matters most and she needs to understand that.
"Come here Jade" I gestured her to come sit near me.
"Remember I once told you about the one-time no. 1 business in France". I said
"Yeah, Exo. You said it belonged to someone you know" she replied calmly
"Good so, what made them fold up and become a company no one knows about" I asked.
"You said their first son used to tape and abuse girls" she said
"And when the secret became a trending news, hash tag one on all social media?" I said, waiting for her to continue.
"No organization wanted to trade with them anymore" she said.
"Bingo! So, the first key to destroying someone who seem untouchable is getting the person's dark side, turn it to the person's weakness, make them beg for mercy, turn them to your dog, put a leash on them and in the end, still use what you have to destroy them. You see why I said it's not about the money" I said and paused.
"If this information leak to any of the junior rank police officer, they start a social media trend or a tumor which later result to a social media trend" I added looking at her to confirm she is following
"Or there is another. Every powerful business person has a link in the force, all forces infact, the Navy, airforce and even police. If this information of your victims leak to any of our competitors, they use it to bring us down and everything you think we have now, will wreck" I paused.
"You understand this now?" I said.
"Yes mom" she said with an apologetic face.
"And I'm sorry. I promise not to do anything that will jeopardize the perpetuality of our companies" she added.
"Good. You still have a lot to learn before you are ready to be a CEO. But you have little time to do so. So I suggest you learn fast" I said
"I will have to involve you in my secret agency so you can stop thinking like a regular highschooler"
"Your secret agency?" She said and I just took my tablet to check the day's news.
"Nice job you did with the hacking" I praised her with a smile to change the topic and it worked.
"Areeee we not gonna high - five on that as usual? She asked, dragging the first word like she's unsure of how I'll react.
"Why not?" I laughed and we high fived.
"Mr. Lee dropped a book on some new moves. It's in your training room. Go check it out" I said.
"You are not gonna stop me training anymore?" She asked cautiously.
I nodded negatively and she screamed in excitement as she quickly hugged me.
"You are the best mom. I don't care what others say" she said as she was running upstairs to he training room.
"One more thing Jade" I said and she stopped in her track on the stairs.
"Don't call your boyfriend the other kid. It's not nice" I said and smirked.
"Mom! He is not my..." She said surprised.
"No one has ever found out how I know things. I have eyes all over" I said and laughed.
"Alex lied to you. I don't even like Adam" she whined.
"Your tech teacher told me nothing. But I can sense feelings when I see someone" I said, still smirking.
To avoid more teasing, she just whined and quickly marched up to her training room.
Not long after, my trusted Secretary entered.
"Madame" he greeted.
"Oh, Louis. Bonjour" I greeted him and he replied.
"Come have a seat" I abandoned the tablet with me as he came to have his seat.
"How's the stat?" I asked as I crossed my legs, going full CEO mode.
"It's rising" he replied.
"And the shipments? It should have arrived three days ago" I said.
"It is coming in today" he said.
"We should cut their fee as a warning. If we don't do that, they will delay our shipments another time" I said.
"But madam, I am not sure they will accept a fee that is cut" Louis said.
"Threaten to sue them for making me lose millions in the last three days. Louis, you are not new to the business. You should know better" I said.
"Yes ma'am" he said.
"So, If the shipment is arriving today, shouldn't you be making provisions for everything to be set? I want to believe something more important brought you here" I said.
"It's the agency matter" he said an I mouthed an 'Oh'
"I have contacted the rest and they should be here any minute from now" he added.
"Okay, Good. Speaking of agency, I should introduce the newest member of the agency to you" I said.
"Jade!" I called and not long after, she was downstairs with her hair, a bit out of place, probably from practising the moves.
"Louis" she greeted and sat down beside me.
He stood up to show his respect for her as she entered.
"Louis, I told you, you don't have to be formal with this brat" I joked and laughed.
"So, Jade here, is the newest member. She's knows martial art and tech so she can assist the rest of the members. What she needs to learn is how you and I strategize" I concluded.
"Welcome, young Miss" Louis said and I rolled my eyes.
He would not listen to me about not being formal to her.
"So, Jade. I told you about a secret agency not quite long. Louis here is one of the key agents in the secret agency. We have three more and they will enter through that door pretty soon" immediately I said that, our chef entered through the door I pointed at and Jade laughed.
"Spoon head?" She laughs.
"With his big stomach is a secret agent?" She laughs.
"No and YES. God this will be tiring. Louis please do the explanation" I said.
"Young Miss, everybody you see in this house is an agent in the secret agency. But the agency has five key agents that make the decision" he said.
"Oh, like the board of Directors. More like Board of the Agent" she said and laughed at her own joke.
"Ok continue" she said.
"What do you do in this agency?" She asked.
"We deal with corrupt businessmen" he said.
"That's more like what I do mom" she said and looked at me.
"...in a legal way, Miss. We deal with people in a legal way and we don't leave any clue until the person is ruined" he added.
"Oh. That's why it's called a Secret Agency. It's in the name for Pizza sake" she said.
An alarm sounded lightly.
"Someone's at the door" Jade said.
"Your so-called Board of Agency are here now" I said and the remaining three agents we were waiting for entered and I looked at Jade's expression and to say she was surprised will be an understatement.
Her eyes was wide opened as the three entered one after the other.
"Mr Lee ?" She said and laughed but she's yet to see the worse
"Alex? Mom what is going.." then the last person entered before she could complete her sentence.
And "What the Fuck?" She exclaimed
LILY'S POV The door opened, then, Mr. Lee and Alex, Jade's martial art and tech teacher respectively came in. "Mr. Lee and Alex are a part of the secret agency? What is going..." Before she could complete her sentence, the last person entered. "What the fuck?!" She exclaimed. "Adam?" She said as she looked at me and I just smiled. "Madame, Jade" they greeted as they sat down. "I don't need to introduce my daughter much anymore but she will be joining us on this mission. It will be her first mission with us. Anyone has any objection?" I asked but they all seem cool with it. "Nice so, let's hear what you got" I said facing the secretary. "The Platinum company hijacked the contract that was supposed to be awarded to Pluto" he said. "They bribed the company awarding the contract. I traced the sum of five million dollars into the account of one accountant" Adam said. "And at the same time, five million naira left the account of the Director, Fredrick" "Okay so, we will make them
AUTHOR'S POV Back to Present, "Lily, you are an independent woman and I like you for that" he said and Lily checked the time to see she has forty more minutes before she is free to release him. BACK IN THE STRONG ROOM,Lily and Adam already found the storage for the confidential files. They inserted their drive and started copying the files, then immediately, the tech team leader was alerted and as expected, securities started coming towards the strong room but met Mr. Lee on the way. "You'll have to go through me first" he said and they started fighting their way in and the Tech Team rushed to the Director's office but his secretary stopped him. "The Director is not around" she said. "You need to contact him right away" he said hurriedly. "Whatever the emergency is will have to wait because he asked not to be disturbed" she replied casually "The confidential files are being stolen" he said. "What?" She picked the phone and started dialing the Director's number. "Why didn't y
"I will go straight to the point. I guess you know me already. So, you have just two options" the woman in black with a face showing zero emotion, not angry, not sad, not happy said in a Limousine. She is alone with a young beautiful but shit-scared lady. "You take that money..." pointed to a briefcase beside the young lady "... abort that baby" pointed to my tummy "...leave the country silently" pointed outside to indicate leave "...and claim no connection with my son because as of this moment, you never met him, you never saw him and he never exist to you OR you do what you want, force things with my son, keep the pregnancy and risk your life and that of your unborn monster of a baby" The face of the young lady can't be seen but her silent sob was not so silent.

"Lily Maxwell" I told the woman sitting behind the desk. I am currently at the section for collecting dorm key. I can't wait to meet my room mate. I just hope she'll be nice and at least understand little French. If she doesn't, I can't wait to start teaching her. "Welcome to University of Los Angeles". The woman said with a smile. I flashed her a smile back. Not really flashed. I actually showed her my thirty-two set of teeth. Well, except it's still twenty eight cos I haven't grown molars yet. I have been smiling since I entered the gate of the school, scratch that, since my flight arrived in Los Angeles. I carried my bag and turned back to look for my dorm so i can settle in when I bumped into a very pretty and richly dressed girl. If Barbie was a person, she would be Barbie Pro Max. Infact, comparing her to Barbie is an understatement because she is more beautiful than Barbie but Barbie's beauty came to my head because the girl is dressed like Barbie, with her blonde hair
LILY'S POV Present Day... It's been two years since I left Los Angeles. I kept the Pregnancy and I could still remember when I went for a scan. "Lily, it's a double" the doctor said. I was happy but shattered. I can not nurture two at a time. Even one would be hard. Months later, I gave birth to twin as the scan revealed. I tried to manage both of them at the same time as well as try to make money to climb the top but it was not easy at all. So I just had to drop the boy at the orphanage. It was a tough decision and I know he will hate me for it when he grow up but I still made the sacrifice. But I had it in mind to claim or adopt him few years after which I believe I will have climbed the top of the wealth chain. "Non, Jade, stop playing with the appliances" I collected the TV remote from her. "You want toys?" I gave her about five toys but she threw them away and tried to jump at the remote with me and in that cause, she changed the TV station. "This is the day Los Angeles
