Charlotte walked into the mansion in huge strides. She was putting on black pants and a blue crop top alongside a jacket. Her long brown hair was packed into a ponytail. She looked around only to see that the sitting room was empty. She brought out her milkshake and sipped it. "Where has everyone gone to? It's still morning. " She murmured and proceeded to go upstairs. In a fit of rush, she collided with Drake thereby spilling some of the drink on him. She was shocked to see him. "Oh, I am sorry, Mister. I didn't see you coming." She tried to wipe the already stained shirt. "It's fine. You must be Charlotte, Jane's friend?" Drake stretched his hand forward for a shake. "Yes...yes, you are right." She acknowledged. "I am Drake, nice to meet you." He introduced himself and Charlotte smiled. He wasn't bad looking himself. "Same here, Drake. I believe Jane is in her room?" "I believe so, yes." "Alright, thank you." She paused beside him and went upstairs.The prete
Jane and Charlotte went ahead to pay a visit to Old Madam Ryan after checking up on Bruno's health progress. Charlotte seemed to be in a full mode of gisting as she did not stop saying this or that. She was also excited to meet the grand matriarch of the Ryan Empire that she had always heard about.Immediately after the car drove into the compound, Charlotte stopped talking. "Jane!!! You are poverty free for life." She commented "Yeah, just for two years." Jane replied and Charlotte snickered. Today she would be meeting the legendary businesswoman whose fame shone all around the country. She had seen her on television and the news.she had heard a lot about her and especially her family so she had a good impression of this woman.Charlotte, when she saw Allen the other day did her little research about him. She saw that Allen's name on social media was less in comparison to Stephen but the search topic about him was more than a billion. Yes, he ran one of the largest firms in the co
Late in the evening when the workers had left for home, Allen walked out of his office. Bert was following from behind with his suitcase. He never stopped talking to Allen even though the cold man didn't give him any befitting reply. When they got to the entrance, Allen'sphone rang. This made Bert stop talking and proceeded to the car after the door was opened by the security men. Allen had his Bluetooth device connected to his phone already and it was in his ear so he accepted the call by swiping. "Hello, grandmother." "How are you, Allen?" "I am fine, grandmother. How are you doing?" "I am equally good too. Jane and her friend came to visit me and we had fun. Goodness, your wife, and her friend are really something." She chuckled. "I am glad to know that." Allen's face warmed up. "Where are you?" "I am about to leave for home." "Can you stop by? I need to talk with you aboutsomething very important." "Yes, grandmother." "Good. Don't be late."Allen got into the car and
Drake who had been in all day trying to get somemysterious facts rights decided to leave his room in the dark and headed towards the building with a Torchlight.Not that he needed one anyway but it seemed logical to take that step. His steps hastened towards the building but before he could reach the entrance, he felt someone's presence behind him. He stopped walking and sighed before turning around. "Won't you let me do my work in peace?" He asked. Allen was standing in front of him with his hands inside his pockets. "What are you up to? You could have done whatever you want to in your room, it's one of the most spacious in this mansion." "Aren't you a man of a few words, huh? Look, I need the possible concentration that I can get. I don't want things getting out of hand." Drake replied as he waved his torch dramatically. "I hope you know that your torch is still on, right?" Allen asked. "Oops." Blake turned it off. His eyes went across to the figure that was trying t
The rules seemed pretty easy for Jane to follow and she found no fault in them so she agreed without hesitating. "Very well, then, you will go along with Xander to the theatre school later today. Leave everything for him to handle, just answer and fill in your information clearly."Allen carried his briefcase and was about to leave the toom when Jane stopped him. "Thank you for making this happen but can you spare me a bit of your time? I need to discuss something with you." She spoke and blinked her eyes every second trying to act very cutely. Allen stared at her and sighed.He had no reason he was completely adhering to what she says but he had discussed it with his grandmother yesternight and he made a promise to her under her persuasion to always give her a listening ear. "You have only five minutes." He replied. "Can you please allow me to perform my duty as your wife?" She asked gently and Allen's grip tightened around the suitcase. Even though he had imagined it cou
A few hours later, Xander and Jane went to one of the prestigious theatre schools in the City. Jane looked ecstatic and nervous as well since they left that morning. She was wondering how things would go for the day. She had called Charlotte before leaving to inform her of her move even though she kept asking Jane insignificant questions about Kyle in the process of their discussion. That reminded her about something. "Xander?" "Yes?" He responded. "I want to ask you something." "Yeah, sure, go ahead." He said as he turned the car slightly to the left to continue the journey. "It's about Kyle. What work does he gets involved with to be precise? Like his occupation?" "He is more or less an engineer. He is into building projects and construction of sites, yeah, something related to that. "Xander replied. "All right, thank you." "You are welcome."There was silence between them for a while until Jane decided to ask another question. "Do you have any idea if he
051. FIRST DAY IN SCHOOL.The days soon rolled by into a brand new week for everyone with different agendas in the Ryan family. Starting from Jane who had woken up as quickly as she could with great eagerness and delight for her new school like a child. She rushed to her room the next Monday morning to take a shower before putting on something decent that did not show or scream too much wealth but still one kind of expensive. Her mind lingered on the type of friends she was going to make.she knew not everyone would like her but at least, she would be able to explore the little world before her. She headed downstairs quickly after paying a visit to her brother and met Ben who was lost in thoughts."Good morning, Mr. Ben." She greeted. "Ha. Young Madam, good morning. I can see your mood is brightened up already for today." He smiled at her. He had always seen Jane as his daughter most times but didn't fail to give her accorded respect as his boss. "Yes. I feel so happy today beca
A young lady pulled her travel bag alongside a small one as she walked into the airport arena. She was dressed in leather black pants, a white crop top, and a long black leather jacket. She was wearing black fashionable boots and judging from her appearance, she looked like a mafia female boss.Two men walked to her and bowed. "Welcome back, young miss."Isabella removed her pair of glasses and looked at them. "We were sent here by Young Master Allen." One of the men said when he noticed her look. She nodded. "Let's leave."
