" Ma please, enough of the ranting and raving, you wanted her out in the first place and now she's gone what changed?" he asked.

“ It's different now, she's a multi-millionaire and CEO to one of the companies belonging to one of the business tycoons in town, and also the mother of your child, the heir to your company," she stressed.

“ Haha, what makes you think she would accept me? She's different now mom, she's made a name for herself and you want her to come back to the man who never treated her right? Think twice mom, think twice." he added on frustrated.

“ It doesn't hurt to try, son. What if she still loves you? Drop that ego and apologise to her." she pats him on the shoulder and walked out.

“Babe, babe!" his arm candy of the week shook him awake.

“What is it?" he asked rubbing his eyes.

So it was a dream after all?

    “Just a minute!" Xara said as she hurried down the staircase with Elon in her arms to check who was at the door. Her maids hadn't yet arrived for duty. “Surprise!" Penny, Alianna, Neo, Lorenzo and Lyle yelled holding a cake and some gifts. “You guys didn't have to," she added on surprised, trying to calm a screaming Elon down. “Come on in." she ushered them in locking the door. The girls set the cake and other gifts in the kitchen as they joined the guys in the living room. “I forgot today was my birthday, thanks, guys." she appreciated. “It's no big deal, we got you." Penny smiled. “ Hey, baby," Alianna cooed as she took Elon from Xara. She rushed upstairs to have a quick shower and dress up. The maids resumed their duties shortly after Xara went up. Elon's nanny took him to bathe him and dress him up as well. They prepared breakfast for Xara and her friends. “ Ma'am, he's ready for his meal now." the nanny broug

    “ Is that not--- “ Kai, are you watching the news?" Gerald said as soon as he answered the call. “ You just woke me up, Gerald," he rubbed sleep off his eyes. “ Good check the news, like now," he ordered him to. “ Okay," he turned on the television. He saw his wife holding Elon in an interview. The headlines read " Xara Maximillian, the CEO to Hopkins and Co, Miami, FL branch." “ No, that, that can't be her." Kai found himself saying. “ That is your wife Kai, it's Xara," Gerald said. “ So Mrs Maximillian did your husband get you this job? If yes why did he offer you a spot in his company?" the host asked. " For years, I've always been known as 'the peasant wife' and not recognized as his wife, buy others and him as well. This opportunity was offered to me by one of my best friends, Alianna Hopkins. She spoke to her dad on my behalf. At first, when I stepped in here, I was Ms Chloe's assistant and six months later, I'm C

    “ Hey, beautiful." A man walked towards Aisha and gave her a peck on the lips. She had been able to lose weight, through exercise and the words of encouragement from Lorenzo. Lorenzo sat rooted to his chair watching on. His expression was that of pain, anger, jealousy and hurt. He had asked her out and she blatantly refused, with the excuse that she wasn't ready to date again due to past experiences and hate comments from her exes, and now she was dating another man. “Lorenzo, meet my---- “Save it, Aisha!" he fumed walking out of the restaurant in pain. “Is he okay?" the man asked a confused Aisha. “ I'm as shocked as you are babe," she said as he sat on the seat Lorenzo occupied. Lorenzo slightly hit his head on the steering wheel repeatedly. Why were some women this way? that's why good guys don't want to help them anymore You be there for them through thick and thin

    " Mom?" Kai was shocked to see Aurora in his office. " I'm good son, what about you?" she asked sarcastically. " Enough of the sarcasm, what do you want?" he demanded. “ To see my grandbaby." she dropped. How did she know of his son? “ Shocked?" she smirked. “ He ain't here Ma, you can't see him," he told her. " I know," she said crossing her legs. " Then what do you want?" he sighed exasperatedly. " You gotta make peace with her Kai, reunite your family." she voiced out. “ If I am getting you right, you want me to go apologise to the peasant and bring her home because she started making peanuts?" he proudly asked. “ FYI, she's not making peanuts, she's one of the fast-rising CEO's making millions and she's not a peasant, son." Aurora put. “ This seems like a Deja-vu." he tried to recollect. “ It ain't no Deja whatever it's real life, wake up and smell the coffee," she st

    Penny stood beside Lyle as the procession for his father's burial took place. It had been the two of them since he could remember. His mom eloped with a younger man, and unfortunately for her, they had an accident and died on the spot. His father was devastated but for him, he could care less. She had gotten what she deserved. He dropped flowers into the grave where his father's casket was being lowered into the ground. "By the sweat of your brow you will eat your food until you return to the ground since from it you were taken; for dust, you are and to dust, you will return.” the priest said as the casket reached the ground. He picked up a handful of sand and threw it in the grave, after which sand was being thrown to cover up the casket. Penny squeezed Lyle's shoulder for support as he wiped the tears off his face. What a cruel world we are in! " Wanna grab something to eat?" Penny asked as they headed to the car. “ Yeah, some

    You did a great job for your friend, you know," Neo said stroking her hair as she lay her head on his lap. "Xara has been a great friend over the years. She was the only one who genuinely had my back way since middle school." Alianna recalled. " Didn't you have any friends back then?" he inquired. " You see..." she began her story. " Mom and Dad were rarely at home. They were so busy with work, they barely had time for me. It was always me and my nanny, my friends at that time only came to visit or sleepover because of what they would get. They never wanted me to come to their houses. I had a feeling that they used to host sleepovers at their houses without inviting me, but I didn't mind. So far as they were close to me, I was fine. But, their attitude began to change after some time, they began seizing my purse to take my money for whatever they liked. Bullying me into giving them money. I always dreaded going to school because o

    Xara walked into the building with her head held up high. She heard murmurs here and there but she didn't mind what people were saying about her no more. She was her own person now and it was time they braced that fact. She nodded to greetings from some of them and kept a smile on her face. I'll bet they don't know I'm their boss now. " There you are, iI thought you were gonna be late." Alianna hugged her best friend. "Come on Ali, you know I don't do late." she winked at her. "Alright mama, come on let's introduce you to your people." she winked as they entered the conference hall. The employees gathered around and watched her speak from their common hall. Some of them were shocked to know she was their vice president, others were just plain jealous and those who loved her were happy for her. " Now, let me take you to your executive office, Miss Vice P." Alianna teased. "Gladly," they laughed as they headed to X

    " ...just as I was saying," Kai added as Xara walked into his office with her Hr manager. " We'd continue this later," he dropped the call offering them seats. "Is there anything you would like to drink before into business?" he asked. " A cup of coffee would be fine," the Hr manager requested. "Xara?" he asked. " No thanks, I'm fine." she smiled crossing her legs together. " Okay then," he ordered for two cups of coffee one for him and the other for Xara's Hr manager. " The coffee would soon be here, let's cut to the chase," he suggested as the meeting began. He couldn't help but steal glances at his wife. She looked gorgeous and more confident. " My secretary would forward the rest of the documents to you, it was nice doing business with you," Kai added shaking the Hr and Xara's hands. The Hr manager walked out first as Xara followed behind. She felt a hand drag her back into the office. " Let go of me, Kai."

    Epilogue. " So you mean you're part of the Mafia?" Lorenzo asked as they walked along the streets. The street lights laminated their paths as they took a stroll. " Of course, I am their lawyer...a Mafia lawyer," she explained. " Okay, that explains the men you came along with to help us out." " Yeah," she answered. " For how long have you been a Mafia lawyer?" he couldn't help but ask. " After law school, when my dad died. I had no choice but to take over because I was my father's successor that's why he sent me to law school in the first place. At first, I didn't want to be a part of it but I had no choice when he threatened to disown me. I had nowhere to go or to start from so I obeyed him and after he died I became their lawyer. I was sceptical at first but when time went on, I got used to it and decided to stay." she explained. " I see," he answered. Lorenzo and Kenzie headed over to her plac

    " We meet again Kai Maximilian," Valerie curled her lip pointing a gun at Elon's head. " What do you want?" he interrogated as another masked man held Xara down. " Chill, Kai. A little payback won't hurt," she laughed like a maniac. " Why did I involve myself with you in the first place?" he blurted out. " Because I could give it to you real good. Something none of your bitches could do," she let out a dry laugh. " Yeah right," " I loved you, Kai, since high school. But you ignored me. You reported to management that I was stalking you and hurt some of the girls you went out with. Of course, I did all that. But I still loved you, so after college, I tracked you. But you didn't recognise me. I had changed. We were fine until Mabel came in, but she was a scaredy-cat so she ran off. Then you went for her, I thought she would leave as her sister did. She didn't.

    Weeks had passed and Lorenzo had been discharged from the hospital. Kai spent more time with his family, he came to check on his wife and son regularly. He even spent some nights in Xara's house, he hadn't yet summoned the courage to ask them to move back in with him. He needed all this mess to be over before he asked them to move in. Now more than ever, Lorenzo was determined to find Valerie. He needed to find her and end this madness once and for all. He knew she was hiding in a town not far away from Brooklyn, NY and how she had made a living for herself. What he needed right now was an insider to monitor her footsteps and plans. He had been able to track down the assassin she hired. Time to pay him a nice visit. " Boss, I need a favour." " Kenzie, what kind of favour do you want?" he asked her. " I need men to track down a certain someone who almost killed people I've come care about," she told him. She was a mafia lawyer, a

    " Xara, Elon...move!" Lorenzo got there just in time to take the bullet for them. " Aaah!" Xara gripped Elon's hand as a crowd gathered around them. The bullet hit Lorenzo's right arm, getting to his chest. He lay in a pool of blood as Xara stood frozen, she felt blood trickle down her legs. " Call an ambulance please," Lorenzo called out in pain. Elon held onto his mother's legs crying and terrified at the scene that just unfolded in front of them. The paramedics gently put Lorenzo onto the stretcher and helped Xara into the ambulance as well as Elon as they were rushed to the hospital. " Next time, don't miss the target., Valerie said into the assassin's AirPods " Got it, boss," the masked man responded blending into the crowd after he fled from the scene.

    AJ lay in Valerie's bed fast asleep. She sat up smoking a cigarette lost in thought. He's not a bad company. I could hang around him for a while before discarding him, besides he's got the dough. Isn't that what everyone wants? She chuckled. She stole another glance at him. He slept peacefully as if he had no care in this world. No troubles, no nothing. He slept like a newborn babe. Valerie wore her robe and descended the stairs to the kitchen. Her tummy was rumbling and she decided to fix breakfast for both of them since he was already here. She finished with their breakfast an

    "I'm so sorry, I didn't see you there." Valerie apologized bumping into a handsome young man. He looked sophisticated. " It's fine, don't worry about it..." he trailed off. Her hand bent over to pick up the clutch she intentionally dropped when she bumped into him. " That's fine, I would see you around then." she turned around to go. She began to count in her head 1..2...and 3. "Excuse me," the man called her back. Works like magic, she said to herself walking towards him. " Umm, you called." she bit down her lips seductively. " Yeah, here's my card. Call me when you get to your destination. I'd love for us to have dinner, to get to know ourselves better." he stared at her cleavage. " I'd love to Sir," she responded. " Call me Ajax...AJ for short," he told her. " Alright AJ, I'm Valerie...and it was nice meeting you.

    “ Valerie, what else do you want from him? You made it out of jail, made money, and you're living an obedient life. What at all do you need again?” Well, the caller asked. “ Oh, I don't need anything from him but a small payback,” she smirked. “ Payback for what? Haven't you done enough already? Haven't you caused adequate harm to him and his family… What do you want?” the caller said in frustration. “ Payback they say is a…bitch. The scumbag made me rot in that vile following cell. He humiliated me in front of everyone. For now, I'm just focusing on making else money, waiting for my jailbreak saga to die down, and then I strike when he least expects it.” she laughed hysterically. “ You're one nut job…” ******** “ Mr. Ken Wilson, 55 years of age, father of two.

    Lina and Lana rang the doorbell again waiting for an answer. It had been long they last saw their brother and his wife. The last time they saw him was at his wedding. " Surprise, surprise," Lina said as Penny got the door. "Oh my...come on in. It's been a while we saw you girls." Penny said as they walked in. " Thanks, you have a beautiful home by the way." Lana complimented. " Thanks, please have a seat and what do I get you?" she inquired. " Anything you have at home." they both answered at the same time.
