It has been good lately with me and dad as always. We go out to have some father and son time and of course, the company is also growing bigger everyday. Also guess what, we are now partners with the Montenegro Group Of Companies, awesome right. So this is the latest news now in the family and I really wish you are here to celebrate it with me"; Drake continued while leaning on his mother's grave.
As a child, he grew up without knowing what a mother's love was. He had rushed home from school a couple of times with tears in his eyes going to his father. "Drake, what is wrong"; his father will ask with a concerned look plastered on his face. "My friends keep mocking me at school that I don't have a mom to wish happy mother's day to"; he said while a river of tears fell down his cheeks. Niel felt sorry for his son and decided to encourage him not to mind what his friends say. "Listen Dracardo, your friends might have mom's who take care of them at home, but remember you have a mom who takes care of you at a much more beautiful place than what they call their home. If they receive many gifts from their mom physically, remember you also have a mom who provides for you spiritually. All you have to do is to just ask her, and she will give it to you";. Niel continued to advice his son as many years flew by, and Dracardo never forgot those words."" From the cemetery,he drove home to his immense mansion instead of his father's. Soldiers stood at the entrance of the house doing their work as securities. The driveway to the main house was beautifully decorated with flowers, different kinds of them. On the left side of the house was a ranch, not only filled with horses but peacocks as well. The garage of his house was full of different cars with different colours. A Rolls Royce, Maserati, Bugatti, Lamborghini and a beautifully ashed sprayed Escalade. He walked to the house, into his room,took a quick cold shower and took a nap for a while but unfortunately went into a deep slumber.==== Drake walked for several hours before he came across an old warehouse which looks like it's over a hundred years old and could collapse anytime. He decided to look for a way to go in to sleep there for the night since he was so tired and his clothes were torn just as his shoes were worn out. He sneaked into the warehouse through a tiny hole when he suddenly heard someone scream. He followed where the scream came from and what he saw shocked him. He saw a young girl tied to a chair and it looks like she is about to be raped by what seems like a gang of robbers with masks on. He tried to look at the girl who was pleading for her life and when he realised who the girl was, he yelled out "NO" and woke up from sleep only to find himself soaked in sweat and the bed as wet as if a tank of water was on it. He was sweating from head to toe and his eyes were as red as blood. Even though it was just a nightmare,he didn't understand why he dreamt about her. He doesn't know and wants to know anything about her even though he found her very attractive. He wondered why she was pleading instead of struggling for her life. "Hmm, She must know the leader of the gang since she was pleading with him that way to spare her"; he mumbled to himself while in deep thoughts. "No, I must do something about this"; he shouted as if he was talking to someone. He reached for his phone and went through his contacts till he found the one he was looking for then dialled it….======Jessica was going through some important documents her father had brought home concerning issues arising in the company when she heard her phone ringing. She stood up from the couch and went on to grab the phone on the table by her bed. She smiled when she recognized the number which was calling her and answered it immediately. "Hello"; she said in the cutest way she could. "Hi, am I speaking to Jessica please"; the caller asked. "yes please, may I know who this is"; she asked, trying to sound like she was lost of who she was speaking to. "This is Dracardo please"; the caller replied not knowing of the game she was playing with him. Jessica found Drake a very attractive and decent young man the first day that they met at the boardroom. She had tried to call him several times even since they exchanged contacts but decided against it since she didn't know what exactly to say to him in case he answered the call. But now that he himself made the move, she is going to play along with it. "Mr. Lincoln, how do you do please"; she asked with a calm sweet voice. "How do you do Jessica"; he replied back to her. After a while, he continued "just wanted to check up on you"; A sudden silence followed after what Drake said.==== After the nightmare Drake had, he dialled Jessica to check up on her without even preparing himself on what to say. 'Oh no, wait , what am I going to say to her? Should I tell her about the dream I just had about her and tell her to be careful or should I invite her out. No, she will see me as those cheap guys. Dammit Drake, think think think"; he was mumbling to himself when he heard her sweet voice "hello". Suddenly, he was lost in his own thoughts through just one word he heard coming out from her sweet lips over the phone. He tried replying back in a sweet way but it seems his voice doesn't sound as sweet as her's no matter what he does. He wanted to hear that voice everyday, everytime, anytime, so he made a quick move even if it would look cheap to her. "I was wondering if you would like to go out on a date with me this Friday if you are free"; he said over the phone with fear in his voice, he just prayed that she won't reject his offer. "I would love to,but am a little busy now this week and don't have free time. How about next week Saturday, I will be free by then"; she said. "Yes, I will be free and next week is okay with me"; he replied with relaxation in his voice after she agreed to his request. "okay then"; she said " where would you like us to meet"; "Anywhere you choose to"; he replied, giving her the chance to make the offer of where they will be having their dinner. "How about Valencia's Homeland outside town"; she said remembering the last time she went there with her dad. "okay with me"; he said, assuring her. They went on to have a few other chats with each other for over two hours before they bid each other goodnight.*WHAT DO YOU MEAN*; Raphael yelled at his Secretary. *Am sorry Sir, but the CEO himself was the one who told me not to inform you about it*; Yielda said, looking down at her shoes, afraid to meet her bosses wicked gaze. *GET OUT OF MY OFFICE*; he growled at her with anger in his voice. Yielda quickly left the office making the cross sign thanking God that she made it out alive. *So that old man decided to take my sister instead of me*; he mumbled to himself *okay, we shall see who will take who next time*; he said with smoke coming out of his ears.""Saturday Night: Drake sat there looking into those beautiful hazel eyes of her's. She was such a piece of beauty that he was even short of words. Now he sat there dumb folded and didn't even know how to start the conversation between them.Earlier: The day had finally come that Drake was going to see that beautiful face once again. He hasn't slept well these past few
* I don't know who the man is but I think you do*. * why do you think I do*; Jessica who had been quietly paying attention to Drake finally asked.*How you were pleading with him that he should think of all the things you did together, he might be a relative of yours or maybe if you had a boyfriend,it might be him*; Drake answered.*This is insane, no one near me would try to hurt me for no reason, and as far as am concerned, I haven't offended anyone for them to make a hoax to attack me*; Jessica sputtered, assuring him that no one had nothing against her. But however, what she didn't know was that they were being watched this whole time, not only by officer Jacob's, but by that someone who she thought won't ever harm her. *But Jessica, do you know that it's not everyone who laughs with you actually likes you, they might be your family or friends, but why might also be the ones eating your life up*; he said with calmness even if he senses that she i
"Careful on him alright, I want him alive before he goes to jail. Hehe"; Officer Jacob's laughed after enjoying the scene between the two for a while. While Drake was shooting daggers at the man in front of him, his reinforcement team arrived, each armed just the way they were trained to be. They arranged themselves ready to attack. As much as Drake wanted to join them, they refused. They wouldn't want their boss to get hurt or have any blood stain on his attire for they knew he would interfere if they allowed him to go in with them. Within a few minutes, they were inside the warehouse exchanging bullets with their opponent...."" "Shhh, it's okay, you're safe alright"; he said as he brushed her hair with his fingers. She still felt unconscious and still saw things being blare before her eyes. "ISN'T THE AMBULANCE HERE ALREADY, HOW DAMN LONG DO THEY HAVE TO TAKE TO GET HERE"; he yelled at his guards and reinforcement team.
Jessica was about to drift off to sleep when the door of her room opened. She looked at the door thinking it was a nurse only to see the handsome looking young man she was worried about a while ago staring at her with a concerned look on his face. She stretched her hand and he walked slowly towards her to grab it. Drake stood there speechless as he stared into those mesmerising emerald eyes of hers. He couldn't help himself but smile at her then kissed her knuckles. "How are you doing, Jessica?". "Feeling a little better"; she was excited but didn't know why. "How are you? Were you attacked too? Are you hurt? Did they touch you?; she bombarded him with questions. "No,no,no, I am alright , okay, the only thing that matters to me now is for you to get well, that's all; '' he said with a wide grin. She sighed out of relief and just smiled back at him. Silence followed after that while he gazed at her and she felt it a little bit awkward. She slowly removed her
Drake had a smile plastered on his handsome face on his way back home. He couldn't have been more happy than how he was today. How she talked to him. How she looked at him and that smile, that weakness of his, tugged at his heart in strange ways. He knew what his feelings were. He wasn't confused by them at all, because he knew he had fallen in love. This was his second time falling in love, but the first time that his heart felt that way. He won't make her give up on him this time. He will keep her and make her his. ======== Olivia felt ashamed of who her son had become. Her cute little boy, her little sunshine, had now become a devil, the darkness amongst the light. What happened to him?. What did she do to him for him to become this type of man?. She was glad at least he was joking around.[ Well, that's what she thought]. She sat there quietly, that she didn't even notice a bottle of water
So, who did this team belong to"*They belong to CEO Lincoln. She was with him that night and he was with her when the ambulance came. He ruined the whole plan*; Ruffy said as he continued to puff his cigarette. He assured Raphael that his men had never failed before and someone had something to do with this for their plan to fail. And this someone, was CEO Lincoln. Raphael was in deep thought of what his sister was doing with CEO Lincoln. As far as he knows, they've only met once, and that was during the board meeting. Unless he has something for her. *Fine. I want you to deal with him first then. Do everything you can to get him out of my way. This Friday we will be having a meeting with him but this time at my company. So be alert, do you understand me*; he said harshly as he gave Ruffy an envelope full of money. *Oh, I perfectly do*; he said, smiling widely at the tip he just got. He stood up *It was ni
She had such a calm heart, no matter what the situation was. She will smile gently at him even if he annoyed her when they went out for dinner. Her heart was filled with so much love all the time, unlike his which was filled with anger these past few days. He laughed at the thought of him becoming filled with anger for not just being able to see her. He knew that his attitude had surely changed just because of a woman. He decided that no matter what happened, he would make her his. Even if he had to run on lava to reach her, he would. Jessica was very disappointed after not hearing from Drake for some weeks now. She also felt angry, sad and troubled after her Dad scolded her for going out with a man she just met. She became annoyed when her dad told her to stay away from him, for he doubted Drake to be a good man. She didn't know why, but she also had a feeling Drake wants nothing to do with her after some weeks of not hearing from him. She misse
Drake was on the verge of expressing his feelings to Veronica. He had liked her for far too long now and he feels he can't keep it any longer. As a fourteen years old boy, he knew just little about love but didn't care about that. It was on Valentine's Day that he expressed his love to her, with the help of his friend Eduardo but got very disappointed and humiliated by her reply."You mindless pig. You stupid narrow minded Savage. Who do you see me as, a cave girl?. At least cave people are even better than you. You and your family are like trash, which needs to be thrown away. I don't fall in love with trash and people who can't even afford to have proper clothes nor people who are motherless, just like you"; what she said pierced his heart so much he couldn't endure the pain.His heart felt like it was being squeezed that night. What had he done wrong to deserve this. He had never wronged her in any way. He respected her and thought that she was not like the others,
