Mrs Haward's jaw dropped upon hearing James, and she remained frozen in her spot after James entered the apartment. Mirenda sat on the sofa in the living room when James walked past her and headed for his bedroom. He was already exhausted from all the night's activities. Mrs Haward entered the living room a few minutes later and was also heading for her bedroom when Mirenda spoke. "Mum, you know we went too far with this interview thing?" expressed Mirenda. "Honey, when people play dirty, you play dirty too and make sure yours hits them harder," replied Mrs Haward. "Is that what we were doing? I may not like Jason, finding out he stole from us, but we lied to the whole world. What if someone finds out?" Mirenda complained. "Oh Mirenda darling, I did all of that for you and your brother. That is what mothers do; fight for their children. That viper would have put us on the street. I have to make sure he doesn't come to fight you all," Mrs Haward explained. "Do you understand?" sh

"Why did his father choose Julia for him and why was their marriage organized the way it happened?" Jason started thinking. "I need answers," Jason said to himself, and put the certificate back. He returned to his desk to continue with what he was doing but realised he could no longer concentrate. Clearly, there was something about Julia he needed to find out. Growing up with Mr Johan Haward as his father, he knew he didn't just do things. There is always a reason behind every decision he takes and executes. Julia must be very important. "What makes her important?" Jason thought, recalling the basic information shared with him the first time he ran an investigation on Julia. He fetched his phone from the table and dialled a number, bringing the phone to his ears. "Hello, trust you are well. I need you to do some work for me. I need information about someone: my wife, Julia Harrison. Get me everything you can find on her," Jason said and disconnected the call. Unknown to him, J

"Oh dear, what did I just do?" Mr Dickson thought. The news was circulating on social media platforms but Mr Dickson had not paid much attention to it aside from looking at the attached image which was Jason's. Hearing Peter talk about his previous job and resigning to continue working with Jason triggered a memory recollection. He recalled his encounter with a man, Mr Johan Haward. He had spoken highly of a son called Jason. He remembered Mr Johan Haward showing him a picture of a boy whom he said would manage his business in the future. To Mr Haward, Jason was a preferred choice. "Jason must be really special to be in the good books of Mr Johan Haward, because this man was hard to please," Mr Dickson thought. "If that is the case, Jason will be a great addition to my team," he said out loud. "Oh dear, I have to get him back," he said, and immediately exited his office. Mr Dickson stepped out of the building just in time to see an unfamiliar car drive out of his company's compoun

"Hello Mr Haward," Mr Dickson said, once Jason entered. "Welcome back," he added with a smile, and offered Jason a handshake, which Jason accepted. "Thank you for accepting my offer and my sincerest apologies for yesterday. My decision was without thinking. I am very happy to have you," Mr Dickson said with a smile. "Thank you for the offer," replied Jason. "Your office is ready and is directly opposite mine. You will be managing this company with me. I would walk you through what you need to know," Mr Dickson said. "Thank you," replied Jason with no expression at all. Mr Dickson spent the morning onboarding Jason, and he took him on a tour of the company after. Starting with the Human Resources (HR) and Administration departments, Mr Dickson introduced Jason to the employees and the department head, Mr Farel. The department had a balance of both genders and the ladies were excited to see Jason due to his charming personality. "You are most welcome Mr Haward," said Farel, offe

"Great, get ready. We will leave in about half an hour," Mr Dickson announced, and left for the design department. Jason proceeded to his office, sat behind his desk and went through all the documents that were placed on his table. They were reports from the department which gave him clear visibility of the company's overall productivity, which was on the low side. Jason checked his time and realized it was time for the meeting. They left the company as they agreed to meet with the business client at a hotel. Mr Dickson briefs Jason on the client to ensure he understands everything. What he didn't know was Jason had already read the profile of the client and had already drafted a proposal that would help them land the contract. The clients were two well-known investors who were looking to employ the services of an Estate Agency for a community housing project. The operation manager, Harry Lawson, was with them. The meeting started with him opening the floor with a new business prop

Mrs Haward was enjoying her victory in destroying Jason only to find out he was doing well in another company, in London. The only thing on her mind now was how to get him fired from that company. She needed to do something and fast too. "Hello," Mrs Haward said as soon as the call connected. "I need your urgent help with something," she added. "What do you need?" replied the person at the other end of the call."Are you at home?" asked Mrs Haward."Yeah," replied the person."Turn on your TV," requested Mrs Haward."Yeah, the Borison brothers signed a contract with Groupo, what about that?" questioned the person from the other end of the call."The project lead from Groupo. Don't mention the name, but yes, him," replied Mrs Haward."I see," replied the person. "What do you want?" inquired the person. "I want his employment terminated. Do it in such a way that no one will ever want to work with him or for him. I want him to become a nobody," Mrs Haward said. "I will pay you whatever

The lady wrapped her hand around Fiona's waist and tried to drag her out of the washroom. A staff member of the restaurant walked into the washroom and helped the lady carry Fiona out of the washroom. The two carried Fiona through a secret passage of the restaurant into the garage and using another secret passage in the restaurant's garage, they sent Fiona out of the building and put her into a waiting vehicle which took off immediately without anyone noticing. The vehicle stopped in front of what looked like an abandoned house in a secluded area. The driver got out of the car and carried Fiona into the house making sure nobody was watching. The place was equally not well illuminated. In the lavish restaurant at a different location, Mirenda was so excited to see who her blind date was. She walked up to him and hugged him. "Henry, how nice to see you," Mirenda said. "Haaa, likewise," acknowledged Henry. They both sat down and ordered a drink. "So, did you know I was your bl

Fiona had never seen James with other women since she met him. She got closer to him and greeted him. James frowned upon seeing her. "Please can I talk to you for a minute? Please," Fiona requested. Before entering the club, Fiona put on her recorder. She was suspecting James and was hoping to confirm her suspicion. She is a reporter after all. "If only you will give me your body," James said shamelessly. "Please it's very important," Fiona pleaded. James rolled his eyes and led her to one of the private rooms. He tried to kiss Fiona as soon as he closed the door to the private room behind them but Fiona stopped him putting both of her hands up and pushing him away by his chest. He chuckled at her reaction. "You don't care about me anyone, do you?" Fiona asked staring into his eyes. "Why do you think that?" James asked grabbing Fiona by the waist but she freed herself from his grip and walked away from him. "You blocked my number," Fiona replied going straight to the poi

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. She heard footsteps and she exited the place goi
