Vincent stole glances at John through the mirror as he drives. John had a small smile etched on his face, and he knew the only person that can make him smile that way is Sharon.She's the only person that can make him this happy. But what bothers Vincent is why he is smiling after they left Rose.They just dropped Sharon a while ago, so for that reason, he was skeptical if the smile on his face is because of Sharon or the Rose of a girl.Vincent took everything in him to avoid himself from asking, but he couldn't because the next thing he was asking questions."Boss, is there something funny about the girl? You have been smiling since we left there?"John diverts his attention to him, rubbing his thumb, the smile still on his face."Have I? If you must know, I'm not smiling because of her, I just recalled something wifey did, and can't stop myself from smiling." He responded sincerely."I'm sorry, I thought…" Vincent was cut off before he could finish."Stop assuming things, I know wh
"Rose Mary, ain't you going to pick up that phone of yours? It has been ringing like forever." Janet called out to her."Better come downstairs, you have a guest, I'm sure you would rather not keep her waiting." She added."Give me some minutes, I'm almost done, I will be down soon." Rose responded from the room.Janet shook her head, and turn to the guest."Make yourself comfortable, she will join you soon." Janet said, and turn on her heels.A few minutes later, Rose walked out to find her friend Alex."Hey, Alex, thanks for being patient.""It's okay, why are you up late? Ain't you supposed to be at work?" She asked.Rose start playing with her nails, she can't tell Alex she slept late because she couldn't stop thinking about her encounter with John."It's nothing, let's get going, I'm ready.""Rose Mary, you haven't answered my questions, why are you late for work?"Rose ignored her, and walk outside. Alex quickly stood up and followed behind.Immediately they were both seated in
John strides out of the room, Shadow got admitted with a long face. He was busy at the office, when Xavier called him to come to the hospital due to how Shadow's condition got worse. John strode to the doctor's office, knocked before leading his way inside.The doctor was busy going through a medical record, when he lifted his head up to look at the figure."Mr John, Please have a seat, I was waiting for you." He said, with a gesture.John nods with a tight-lipped smile, and sat down, his palms entangled together."Doctor, what about the test results? I hope the results will turn out positive?"The doctor dropped the record, and stare at him."That I can't say, but with the treatment he is receiving, there's a possibility he will be fine, but it's a gradual process. The Poison in his legs has penetrated his body.""Whatever it is that got injected in his legs can be cured?""Don't worry about that, he will be fine, just trust the process, it will take time, but he will be okay. Let's
Janet and her husband sat in the living room waiting for their daughter to come home.Mr Robert came home earlier to report her to his wife because she went to JC Group, which he had warned her to stay away from there.Janet defended her, saying there was nothing wrong just because she was seen there, and Mr Robert took it as an offense.Janet had asked him to let go, she's going to talk to Rose, but he insisted on doing it himself because he doesn't trust her to handle it.Knowing the type of man her husband is, Janet decided to wait up for Rose, so he won't make her cry.They heard the sound of a car, and knew it was Rose who just came back home. Janet turned to her husband, gesturing him to calm down.As they wait, they hear the sound of footsteps, and Robert lift his head up."What were you doing at JC Group today?" Mr Robert asked, immediately Rose stride into the house.Rose shuddered, her bag drop to the ground. Sweat engulfed her, her throat croaked, and her legs felt weak, sh
John helped Sharon into the car, then followed behind, and sat down close to her.Sharon had called him demanding to see, which be wasted no time immediately he got off work, and hurried to see her.Sharon lean on his chest, while he strokes her hair gently, with thoughts running through Sharon's mind.She had something to tell him, but she doesn't know how to do it. John's instinct told him something wasn't right, which he didn't take likely and decided to ask."Wifey, you look dull, you didn't sound lively on the phone, hope I haven't done something wrong?" He asked with a bit of worry in his tone."Father came to check up on me last night, he said I wasn't safe, and the same night a girl was kidnap." She breathe out.John quickly lifted her off his chest, staring at her with wide eyes. Sharon cast her gaze on her hands, playing with her nails."Why would he say that? What do you mean?""I don't know, I'm also perplexed. The same man who saved from the reporter was with him." She re
Lydia strode into an uncompleted building, where the kidnappers had the girl in place of Sharon.She slowly strides towards a direction she thought she could find them. Luckily, she met one of the men, by the door waiting for her."Please this way." He said, with a gesture. She followed behind, until they got to a room, where a girl was tired to a chair, with clothes on her face."Welcome, we got the girl." Their leader said, and walk to her. He removed the clothes off her face.Immediately the clothes were off her face, she came into view with a different figure staring at her with a scorn look on her face.Lydia rested her hands on her waist, with parted lips, looking for the right word to use."What is wrong with all of you? Is this the picture of the girl i sent to you?" She yelled, and nudge their leader.The three men got perplexed, they clearly saw the girl striding out of the room number Lydia gave them, and when she got to the gate, they got her from there, not checking if sh
A week later, Mr GU arrived at the airport as early as 10am. The guard he went along with helped with his bag and carried it to the waiting space."Who did you say is coming to pick me up?" Mr GU asked, scanning the airport."It's the second Master, the third master is busy.""Then why is he not here? Isn't he aware of my coming?" Before the guard could respond, he heard his son voice."Father." They heard, and turn towards the direction.Their gaze landed on a smiling Alan, who was leisurely striding up to them."Welcome back father." Alan said, immediately he stood in front of him, and pulled him in for a hug."Thank you son. Why are you just coming? I thought you were supposed to be here earlier?"Alan fixed his father neck tie, and slightly tap his both shoulders."I'm sorry, father, I had to take care of something.""Something Lydia put you up to? I'm sure it's nothing related to the company." Mr GU said, disappointed."It's too early to scold me, let's get going." Alan wrap his
Rose stride to her father's office with a long face. She knocked on his door, and waited patiently for his response.A few seconds later, Mr Robert responded, and she pushed further into his office."Rose Mary, was with your facial expression? Is everything okay?" He asked, as soon as his gaze landed on her face."Father it's been almost an hour, and the head manager is still not here, for how long are we going to sit back and do nothing about the scandal?"Mr Robert sigh, "We just spoke on the phone, he is on his way…" Before he finishes his statement, they heard a knock on the door.The both of them turn to the door, and Rose hurried and to sit down, thinking it could be the manager."The door is open." Mr Robert permitted.The door pushed open, and the manager they have been waiting for stride inside. He is a man in his mid-forties, with short dark hair, and a pale skin."Good morning, Robert, thank you for your patience, I had other imperative stuff to attend." He said, and they s
