"Sir, we had a challenge with the system in the night. So all bookings were manually done," reported the night receptionist.

Peter looked at the time on his laptop screen and it was 6 a.m. His shift had ended and the one to take over was already in.

"Is Thomas in?" Peter asked.

"Yes sir, he is already at his post," the receptionist replied.

"Get him and both of you come to my office," instructed Peter.

"Greetings, is your boss around," came a deep male voice.

"Yes please," replied Thomas.

His working colleague arrived on the scene and patiently waited for Thomas to finish attending to the guest before he engaged him.

"By your boss, I mean Mr Haward," repeated the man in his deep voice.

"Mr Haward has not arrived yet sir but his PA is around," replied the night receptionist on behave of his colleague Thomas.

"Okay, we would like to see him then," requested the man.

"Yes, please," replied Thomas and he quickly led them to Peter's office.

    Jason's eyes widened and he tensed up quickly even though he remained composed staring at the person before him. "I am Vera, a friend of the journalist who hosted your brother James on the TV show," Vera introduced as she dropped her disguise on the empty seat before her."So you are a woman? Why the male disguise?" Jason asked already feeling uncomfortable."I am hiding from your brother James," Vera replied. "Can I sit?" she asked."Sure," replied Jason coldly.If it is James, Jason knows it has everything to do with abuse or harassment."Fiona is the name of the journalist who hosted James on the TV show. She believes you can help us. Can you?" Vera asked with urgency."Depends on what kind of help you are asking of me," Jason replied trying his best to remain calm.Jason picked up his phone and unlocked the screen. He went into his gallery and clicked on Julia's image which immediately covered his phone screen. With the phone almost beneath the table, he just stared at Julia's ima

    "So the end of the month, which is four days from now, you will start your role as Acting CEO of Paradise Hotel," Mr Wellington announced and Mrs Haward grinned inside as she controlled her smiles on the outside. The meeting came to an end and they both left for their respective destinations. Mr Wellington went to Jason's apartment to wait for him. Mrs Haward arrived home with the good news and the celebration began. "CEO of Paradise Hotel," praised Mori."This news will hit Jason like a fist blow when he hears it. He doesn't know Mr Wellington meets with you right?" asked James."No, Mr Wellington is not the type to tell everyone about what he is doing," replied Mrs Haward."I think it makes sense to play my favourite music," Mori said and quickly moved to the stereo.She hit play and the living room was soon filled with the song, Holiday by Madonna. She started swaying her waist to the rhythm of the song. James just watched her stunned by her dance moves. "I didn't know you could

Mrs Haward looks at herself in the mirror and smiles before leaving her room. The guard was waiting for her in the living room. She just gave her bag to him and headed for the door. The guard followed her out. After a few minutes' drive, they arrive at the Hotel. Just in time to see Jason exit the building. "Well, well, well, isn't it the scammer," Mrs Haward said with a sinister smile. "Nice to see you too, mum," greeted Jason. "I didn't come to see you. I am here because I am taking over your company," Mrs Haward said and laughed. "Isn't that exciting?" she said and Jason stared at her quietly. "Is there anything you want to say to me, mum?" Jason asked. Before Mrs Haward could respond Pet

    Julia pulled the chair and sat down waiting to hear what he had to say to her. Mr Wellington looked at her across the table for a while before opening his mouth to say something."You and Jason have gone through a lot because of the woman downstairs. In all, you suffered the most. There is a plan to put an end to all of this. Jason kept you out of it for a reason. At the right time he will explain everything to you," Mr Wellington said and read her reaction.Julia lowered her head as that was not what she was expecting to hear. To her, how is working under Mrs Haward a plan? The woman had done terrible things to both her and Jason. "Will I be okay?" Julia asked when she lifted her head to look at him."Yes, I would not leave you alone with her. I will be here with you," Mr Wellington said and Julia nodded."You will be fine just go back to your work. Do not hesitate to report anything she does that makes you uncomfortable," Mr Wellington added and Julia nodded getting up from her seat

    Jason kissed Julia's forehead and they both walked towards the exit. James pushed himself up from the ground and manage to stand on his feet. He wiped his mouth with the back of his hand and noticed a stain of blood."Jason does have some dangerous punches." James thought as he cleaned himself up."Sir, please you have to leave," came the voice of one of the restaurant staff."Shut up," yelled James and he took long strides walking past the restaurant staff person and pushing him with his shoulders in the process.Not wanting to walk through the customers of the restaurant who had crowded the ground floor, he asked another hotel staff to show him a different route out of the hotel which she did. James was soon out of the restaurant, he sat in his car and drove back to the Haward's apartment angry. Jason, on the other hand, took Julia to a night beach. With some cities on the other side of the sea. With the lights of the cities on, the beach was a sight to behold. "Wow, this is beaut

    The next day Mrs Haward presented the documents to Mr Wellington who smiled with satisfaction. "Well done, you made the right choice," Mr Wellington said accepting the signed document from her hand."I do know a good deal when I see one," Mrs Haward commented."I will be leaving now to handle some other business starting tomorrow. As the CEO, this office is now yours. Congratulations," Mr Wellington said and handed the keys to her exiting the office.Mrs Haward stood in the big office space. The office that once belonged to Jason. She smiled knowing she had taken it away from Jason. She sat down on the seat behind the desk and spun herself around. She fetched her phone from her bag and dialled James's number."Hello, my dearest son," Mrs Haward said as soon as the call connected with an eagerness to share her exciting news. "Hi mum," replied James sounding normal."Guess what son?" Mrs Haward said excitedly on the phone."You won the lottery," James teased."Funny, haha, Nope. I am n

    "Time for me to go receive my glory," she said and got up leaving the house for the Hotel, knowing very well there would be reporters at the hotel waiting to interview her too. The guard was already at the door waiting for Mrs Haward as soon as she exited the living room. The guard pressed the elevator button and they both entered. Mrs Haward was in her best clothing and looking elegant. Within a few minutes, they were on their way to Paradise Hotel. In the car, she opened her phone browser going through the various platforms that were talking about Jason's arrest. She couldn't help but smile ear to ear. The car drove into the hotel compound and as she had anticipated there were reporters everywhere. She got out of the car and was immediately surrounded by reporters who asked one question after the other. She was not paying attention to any of the questions but was very happy she was surrounded by so many reporters. It was Jason who used to get this kind of attention when he was sti

    They both exited the living room and were soon in the car heading towards the police station where Jason was being kept. Upon arrival at the station, they run into Peter at the police station parking lot. They exchanged greetings and together they headed for the police station entrance. Just a couple of walks away from the entrance they saw lined up guards all in uniform. They look very formidable. Dr Andesh, Mirenda, Henry and Peter glanced briefly at each other and returned their gaze to the scene before them. The guards were standing in two files. In the middle, they saw Jason and Mr Wellington walking out of the police station at the same time James was being led into the station in handcuffs accompanied by three officers and the officer who was arrested with him was also following. Jason, now free exiting the station, walked past James, who was in handcuff being led into the station.

    At the station, Mr Wellington, Dr Andesh, Henry, Mirenda and Jason decided to leave. The General walked them to the exit before returning to his office."Wait, does it mean you faked your health condition?" Jason asked still surprised by how Mr Wellington was walking around like nothing happened."Well, Dr Andesh here was able to identify the chemical and prepared an antidote with the help of a friend," Mr Wellington said."Jane did drugged me and seeing this needle mark, I knew she injected me with the chemical. It was not going to kill me, but I will be lying in bed like I am in a coma," he explained."How did she come by such chemicals?" Jason asked as they walked towards their cars flanked by some bodyguards."Jane has a basic knowledge of pharmaceuticals, but her friend Maria has more than basic knowledge in that field," Mr Wellington explained."Does this scene remind you of anything?" Mirenda asked Jason as they stood by their parked cars."Yeah, when we came to get you out of

    At the hospital, James pleaded with the officers to allow him to see how his baby was doing. Seeing the honest look in his eyes, they agreed, but one officer went with him. James went to the unit where Lily was kept under close monitoring but she was not there. He started panicking as he scanned the whole room frantically. "No, she was here last night. Let me ask the doctor. Maybe they moved her to the nursery," James said and the officer stared at him wondering if this was just a trick to get away, but before he could say anything to James who looked very worried a doctor walked to the scene."Doctor, how is Lily?" James asked looking very anxious, and the officer stood there looking on."Mr Haward, I am sorry. It appeared the baby was given an overdose. We did our best, but we lost her," he announced and James dropped to the floor on his knees.The room suddenly felt heavy for him and his heart broke into many pieces. The first day he set his eyes on the child who looked so much li

    "No, that is impossible. I checked all the accounts before I changed the ownership with the letter your husband signed," Maria said. ”It was from one of the accounts I paid the six partners from Haward’s International to council their contract and sign a new one with the Wellington company. I will be sending the prepared partnership contract to them today,” she added."Well, see for yourself," Jane said turning her laptop to face Maria.Maria flipped through the accounts displayed on the laptop and they were all empty. She picked up the phone and after looking through a file she dialled the finance department extension."Come to my office now," Maria yelled on the call."Ma'am, please where is your office?" came the finance manager's voice."Don't ask me stupid questions. Come to the CEO's office," Maria yelled."Forgive me ma'am, but which of the CEO's office, Mr Wellington’s or Mr Jason’s?" he asked and Maria was livid."Are you mocking me?" Maria questioned."No, ma'am. I just want

    "And ma'am, a strange man came here a couple of nights ago. He gave me his name as Mark Smith. He said he was here to help Ma'am Fiona get her TV channel," he added and Mirenda's eyes widened."James," Mirenda whispered. "Fiona is in trouble. James got her. I knew it," she said."No, James doesn't have Fiona. James came for Ms Julia but we got her back. I was there with Mr Haward," Henry said."But you heard what he said," Mirenda said.Henry pulled out his phone and dialled Jason's number. He waited for the call to connect while Mirenda started looking around for anything that would give them a clue about where to find Fiona. She hoped Fiona left clues for them to follow as she searched the environment. She headed for the apartment."Hello, Mr Haward. We have a situation. Ms Fiona is missing and it is possible James may have come for her," Henry said."I am with the police now. I will alert them," Jason said and the call ended.Henry turned around and Mirenda was nowhere to be found.

    Jason and Julia were attended to at the hospital. Jason had his wound leg bandaged. Julia was given a laxative to pass the ring out of her system. Jason jumped on a call the moment the nurse was done with him. Julia was in the lavatory."Yes, you couldn't find him because he changed his face. He looked different now. Same voice, same mannerism but a different face," Jason said on the call."Well, my men lost the car, but we have sent our security agents to all the airports. We are strictly checking all flights booked within the last forty-eight hours," the general informed Jason."That is good," Jason acknowledged."Is it possible to get a perfect description of his current face to share with our men?" the general asked."Yes, have someone come over to the hospital," Jason said and the call ended.Jason sent the location of the hospital to the general and dialled Peter's number next. Henry had left to pick up Mirenda."Hello Peter, what is the current update?" Jason asked."After the

    Jason dropped his gun to the floor and put up his hand in surrender. James smiled and tried to stand still with his gun aimed at Julia. He knew that was his only way of keeping Jason from attacking him. He saw just now how skilful Jason had become since he last saw him. Jason was already skilful in combat and realized he also had a perfect aim. He gunned down four men delivering a bullet into each person's skull."Now listen carefully. Kick that gun to me," James instructed and Jason did just that.James stopped the gun with his feet and quickly picked it up."Now, you are going to take a step back and keep going until I say stop," James instructed. "Keep your hands where I can see them," he added and Jason obeyed walking backwards but he kept his gaze on Julia."Good, you are doing fine," James said, briefly looking at his wounded shoulder.With the gun Jason had pushed to him, he shot the legs of the chair at the joint and broke it wounding Julia in the process. It was easy to kick

    Outside, Jason's car was parked at the shoulder of the road. With him was just two guards. He had all the guards watching the house to ensure no one attacked his son"That road to the location you mentioned looks like a dead end," Henry pointed out."It is a dead end," Jason said."How do you figure?" Henry asked."The road ends in front of a warehouse. When my stepfather was alive, he worked closely with the man who owned this warehouse. I am not entirely sure what happened to that man. We woke up one day and he was nowhere to be found. Dead or alive no one knows. He sold the company overnight. My stepfather visited the place saying he had a home inside this warehouse. He thought he could find him here but the place was empty. We checked all the rooms except for one room that was locked with a huge padlock from the outside. It was the first and last time I visited this place," Jason narrated."Wow, you rich and powerful people have hidden stories," Henry commented."Hmm," Jason said.

    "James cut this shit and let Julia go. I am the one you want. So come and let's talk," Jason said coldly."No dear brother. I think I have what I want right here," James said with a sinister smile as he stared at Julia who still looked unfazed."James," Jason called out to him.Julia kept her eyes locked on James and slowly moved her hand to her back. She removed her ring from her finger behind her back as she remained rooted to her spot with her back facing the elevator."I know what you are doing. Just stalking me so the police will get here. I will not give you that luxury," James said and ended the call.He threw the phone into the wall smashing it into pieces. In that brief moment, Julia put her wedding ring into her mouth and swallowed it. James shifted his gaze back to Julia and frowned seeing her squeeze her face."I will not make the mistakes I made in the past," James said. "Strip," he ordered with a serious expression."What?" Julia said."You heard me," James replied."I w

    "What? What are you talking about? Who is Jason's mother?" Dr Andesh asked and pressed a button under her desk."It's an interesting story, but unfortunately, your people will start coming in and I don't want too many dead people in this room," Jane said and set the gun."If you are going to kill me, at least tell me who Jason's mother is?" Dr Andesh said and Jane smiled."The nanny who took him to the park and he got kidnapped," Jane replied with a smile, and Dr Andesh raised an eyebrow wondering how but before she could ask another question hoping to buy time for someone to come in, Jane pulled the trigger.Dr Andesh fell to the ground. Jane walked over to look at her lying on the floor behind the desk."You are Mr Wellington's right-hand person. You will make trouble with everything you know if I don't clear you," Jane said and pulled the trigger putting a bullet into Dr Andesh's chest.She walked out of the room and closed the door.
