"Hmmm, she's so smart. Serious with her job even though she knows she can just sit at home all day and you take care of her bills. And she works hard for her money. Gregory, how on earth did you score this girl? Teach me, I want to learn, before loneliness deals mercilessly with me." "I thought you said you weren't lonely?" "You know my solution to loneliness is only temporary," Max said. Gregory laughed. "Max, stop, please. You're killing me." "Well, hopefully, you'll give me tips one day. But while we're waiting for that, I think I should make my proposition first. I'd like to hear her reply. How soon can we start working on these features?" Max enquired. "I'm ready when you are. You have to let me know when you're all set, financially." Gregory said. "Alright, let me just put some things together. I'll let you know." Max stared at Gregory for a while before he decided to say what was o

Owen was seated comfortably on one of their sitting room sofas. Rosie's mood automatically changed. She looked around and saw her mother seated in the dining section while Annie sat beside the short stairs that led to the kitchen. The air in the room was completely tense, and she didn't need to be told that Owen was not welcome. "Hi, Rose." Owen greeted, standing up immediately when he saw her. "What are you doing in my house?" She asked, ignoring his greeting. "Good evening Mom, Annie." She greeted her family and they responded. Evelyn Bainer pretended she was focused on her phone while Annie had her eyes on her sister and uninvited visitor. "I... I came to see you." He stuttered. "You must be raving mad to think that you can walk into my home whenever you care to and say rubbish after insulting me and my family. Are you that stupid?" She asked in annoyance. Owen stared at Rosie, alarmed at her choice of words and her sophisticated appearance. He'd never seen her look n

"Clean this mess up," Kathrine told one of the armed men in the building. "Trace the name and numbers she gave us. I would love to meet them all." She said.Angie quickly rushed back to the car. She met Rufus already coming to find her. They went back to the car and were fast enough to get comfortably seated before Kathrine joined them."You took a while before coming back, Mommy," Angie told her mother immediately after she got into the car."Drive now." She told Rufus then turned over to Angelina. "I had a little issue that needed my attention. But I'm here now, what do you want? Would you like candy sticks?" She asked, touching Angie gently on the cheeks. Angie shook her head. "No, I just want to go home.""Me too Baby. Look," she posted at one of Angelina's favorite signs. "That's proof, we're almost home."Angie nodded. "When will Daddy return?" She asked, wishing her father was around, as she wanted to share what she saw with him."Soon baby." Her

"Annie, I need to tell you something. It's really important." Rosie said, staring wide-eyed at her sister. As usual, it was the weekend and she was home. After the lunch she had with her Boss, she realized it was best to start the journey of introducing Gregory to her family pretty soon. She then made up her mind that it was best to tell Annie first. Then see how she'll accept the news before proceeding to their mother. But even though she'd made the decision, it took her weeks to finally muster the courage to actually open up. It was one of those lazy weekends and they were watching a movie together in the sitting when she decided to break the news to Annie."What is it? And what's with the look on your face?" Annie asked. "I don't know how to start," Rosie replied, calmly. "It's about my love life..., Gregory." "Oh my Goodness! You guys are going through rough patches? What is it about? Whatever it is, you can always resolve it. There is no perfect couple. Most people go th

The Bainers were busy getting their dining space set for dinner while anticipating the arrival of Gregory, their guest for the night.The dining table was adorned with faux flowers and vases. The china set, carefully and neatly arranged on the table. Evelyn had brought out her best tableware.Having set up the dining space and arranged the whole house, she sat down in the sitting room with her daughters, awaiting their guest."Honestly, I never knew this house could be this sparkly. I can see my reflection in the tiles." Annie said, causing an uproar of laughter."That goes to show how lazy you and your sister are." Evelyn replied."Me?" Rosie asked surprised. "I don't even live here.""Not living with us doesn't exempt you from sweeping and tidying up the house whenever you are around. And don't tell me you tidy the house because if you do, your sister wouldn't have made such a statement." Evelyn replied."Annie," Rosie called. "Look what you cause with
