JACOBI watched as she makes conversations with everyone in the room. She seems to know what she is doing.Her confidence made everyone amused and she knew it. My hands ran through my hair. I can't believe I never saw any of this when we were together.It's like there was a veil over me and I refused to take it off.“Are you ready?” I heard Katherine's voice beside me. Here is one of the veils.“I am,” I said, not paying attention to her at all, she noticed and stood in front of me.“You are here for a contract and not to suck on ladies that you can't have,” she said, smiling.“Don't tempt me, Katherine. Your blackmail isn't going to hold for long,” I said to her.“Oh, the one where you believed your mistress instead of your wife. I'm not a reporter but I know every news outlet will be ringing that for weeks, especially now that she has raised an army of powerful women. You will love not just this contract or everyone you have but also investors.”I stared at her in anger but she did

AURORAI stormed out of the conference room with Carina hurrying after me, trying to keep up with me. “Aurora what's going on? What are you going to do?” She asked, her voice filled with concerns.“Kent pretends insanity, hitting the news isn't a coincidence, someone leaked the news to the press and I'm going to find out how,” I said, my mind running through every scenario I could think of. “i need to know who is behind all of this,” We reached the elevator and I pressed the button for the top floor, that's where the board of directors offices are located, “Carina get me a background information on all the board members especially a special connection between them and Kent or Jacob, Spencer including Katherine,” I instructed, my eyes fixed on the numbers of each button as they pass by.The doors opened and we stepped out into the furnished hallway. This is where they cash in on my money and they plot against me.Everywhere was lined with polished wood and gleaming glass.“What are th

AURORAMy fingers turned into a fist as I watched the Detective and his officer walk out of my office. He then turned and looked at me.“I will find out what really happened here,” he said mischievously.“That is your Job, Detective. Not mine,’’ the whole room was silent. “And this is where I work, not yours. So please leave,”Adding please to my sentence was just a matter of courtesy and for him not trying to pin what happened here on me.Martin walked them out and I faced Carina, “do you see why I have to do whatever I deem necessary?” I asked her.“I don't understand what just happened,” she said with confusion written all over her face.“Why did it look like he wanted to pin this whole thing on you?” she asked and I looked at her surprised at her naivety.“Please don't tell me that,” I said to her still surprised, “whoever invaded the building gave him a target, which is me,” I said.“But the cops have to do their own due diligence,” she said and I sighed in frustration.“How can

AURORAI watch him go up into the crawlspace. He looks flushed but there was a hint of fear in his eyes. Moreso his question baffles me.“How much do I hate?” I scoff as the elevator doors opens up. How dare him asks me that sort of question.The doors open up and a lot of guns were pulled on me. “Goodness!” I screamed.“Stand down!” I held Martin yelled, himself and Carina walked towards me as I got down from the elevator.“What was that for?” I asked, a bit shaken about guns being pulled on me.“Sorry ma’am, we have been looking for you,” Martin said.“Yes, where have you been?” Carina asked, pulling me for a hug, “I was so scared,” I hugged her back.“I’m fine,” I said laughing, “I don’t know what happened. I guess time went by,” I said, remembering everything that happened in the elevator.“Are you sure?” I heard Carina asked, “seems your neck is your new favorite part of your body?” she said and I realized my hands has been on my neck, caressing it, trying to remember Jacob’s tou

AURORAI walked into the building and everything smelt wealthy, nobody would know this place was invaded last week but who would tell.I walked through the red carpet towards the center of the main affair. My mini party for powerful women is a success.“Hi, good to see you,” I greeted the CEO of another company as I walked by.“Girl!” I heard a familiar voice squeal behind me, I turned around immediately.“Sophia!” We jumped on each other. Despite her being related to Jacob our relationship has grown more than I could ever imagine.“What do you think?” I asked her, pouting.“Brilliant. I love it,” she said taking two glasses of wine from the waiter.“Careful,” I held her maintain balance.“Oh I'm fine. Just a little bit tipsy,” she said and took a sip from her wine.“How much have you had to drink?” I asked her and she looked like I had cut her in a act.“Just a little but I will be fine,” she said and walked away from me.I was about to catch up to her when someone who stood in front
