James finally drove and stopped at Jake's neighbourhood to drop Jake off. It was obvious that no one was happy about what had happened and none of us spoke at all till we got to the destination. "So, Jake, just take care of yourself, no matter what happens don't let Lincoln get to you," I said then Jake nodded his head. "Sure, Veronica, that's what I would do, no need to worry about that," I said and then he finally alighted from the car. "See you, Veronica," He said and I replied. "See you, Jake," I said. "Bye, James," He said facing James who smiled to return the greeting to him. "Ooh goodbye mister Jake," He said as he smiled. "Whatever happens boss, you mustn't feel down," James advised as he drove off from the venue towards my house. "Of course, I am not going to feel down at all, I have a belief that at the end of the day, we would win against him and he wouldn't win against us, that no matter what happens, we would be able to find a way to nail him
"Ooh so you mean that case that Lincoln had to do something about it, I knew something was wrong somewhere, he must have threatened the Judge," my mom said facing my Dad who looked completely dumbfounded upon hearing what she said. "You never cease to amaze me, how could you say such a thing about him, like that, what is this about your hatred for your son-in-law," My Dad said fed up. "Don't call him that to me, he isn't worthy to be called that, I know what I am saying that Judge wasn't biased at all, so definitely Lincoln had something to do about it, it's just very obvious, so very obvious," my mom said and my Dad didn't know what to say anymore but to watch who looked away indifferently. She knew that she was right and she didn't care what my Dad thought about her at the moment but only what she thought was right. "Well, I leave you to your thought, but still am so glad that Lincoln won the case in the end, so innocent my son-in-law, you see, good always prevails
"Moving somewhere, Dad?" Lincoln said facing Thomas. Thomas got more agitated after what he was told. "Why all these questions, isn't this what you have always wanted? So why the questions?" Thomas said. "Well, if you were going to move out, I would have told you not to, the fact that I won the case, and claimed the house to be mine, doesn't mean you can't stay in it, anymore," Lincoln said. "What do you mean by that? Listen to me, I am going to my other houses, after all, I still have other houses that you weren't able to steal away from me using your trickery, just as you did this," Thomas blurted out in anger. Lincoln laughed and smiled after and sat in one of the lounges and stretched and rested his legs on one of the stools in the lounge room. "Hmm, so whatever you are trying to tell me right now, us that you are wishing to leave this huge mansion, did I say I would kick you out? I never did, besides, I want you to stay," Lincoln said. "No, so that you will no
"Yes, Dad, of course, that's what we all believe, we only need solid evidence to prove that happened and with time, we sha able to do so," Jake said facing Henry. "Well, I am just wondering how long, until he destroys you all, he is a formed force and very dangerous to handle so far," Jake said. "Yes, regarding Lincoln, Dad, I know that and that was why we had to give him what he had wanted for me to stay neutral on the case and for Veronica to go against the care all for his advantage to plan to fight another day," Jake said. "Yes, I get you, but the fact that you aren't willing to tell me. this new plan you and Veronica are planning is what is making it more worried," Henry said. "Trust me Dad, I don't mean to keep secrets from you, but for now, it's best if you don't know about it, but just know that in the end, we shall be Victorious," Jake said. "This ain't, fair, am sure her family members know about this but not me," Henry complained facing Jake. "You
"Dear, I am just saying that I didn't know it understand the crimes they committed and that the fact that what they did was wrong, all am saying now is that we need to be careful, we only just got out from this mess," Samson said. "Yes, you told us that we should stay quiet for some time since we just got out from abduction and we did, but it's been a day now we can proceed to prosecute them for what they did," Ruth said. Samson was already feeling inconvenient about what she was saying. "Besides you still didn't tell us how you got us safely without making them harm us in the first place, I don't care to understand how it's because of money they would do such a thing," Ruth said. "Come on Ruth, that's it, it's only because of money and I paid it, why don't you just leave the case as it is," Samson advised. "Honey, how do you expect me to just leave the case like that, after everything they had done to us, they are criminals, whoever they are, and whoever must
"Good morning boss," Viola said as she came in Jake who smiled. "Was just coming to see you, but when I saw Jake coming towards your side, I knew that definitely, he was coming to see you then," Viola said. "Ooh yes, thanks, just give us some time, we would discuss later," I said and Viola smiled before she exited the office finally. "Hi," Jake said smiling and I smiled. "Hi, didn't any of Lincoln's men tried to stop you before you came to my office?" I said curiously, because I knew that they couldn't just let Jake passed freely to enter my office. I knew how they always behaved whenever they see any connection between me and Jake at all and I knew that thats how they normally behave at most times... "Yes, of course they did see me and did as if they were going try stop me but I didn't care, besides I don't think they were given the direct order yet to stop me whenever such a case like that happened which did," Jake said. "Well, I also don't care about what he
"I mean this could be risky, Thomas could end up getting hurt if Lincoln funds out, most especially you his wife," Jake said. "Well, if we play our cards well, he wouldn't and Lincoln wouldn't want to hurt me,he wouldn't want to breach our agreement so far," I said. "Well, if you say so it's meant so that we can have a victory over that parasite then let's get going with it then let's get going with it," Jake said and I rose. "I am ready now to go if you are,"I said facing Jake. "Okay then," Jake said and we moved out of my office together and I looked the door. Viola then came afterwards. "Ooh boss, you two are going out together?" Viola enquired curiously. "Yes, of course, it's something serious," I said. "Okay boss, then, no problem," She said smiling and also smiled at Jake who smiled back at her. I and Jake moved together. I had already put a phone call to James who had been waiting in the car that I and Jake would be going out. "Good morning J
"So why have you both come to my house now?" Thomas said curiously. I knew that the way he had demanded that directly that it was obvious that he couldn't hide how he was feeling currently and he was happy about it. "Uncle, please don't get crossed with us, we haven't come here to quarrel in any sort," I said trying to calm him down. "Really? Yet you wouldn't disclose what caused your actions in the court when I asked you to, I mean I know my son so far, I know what he is capable of, so I understand how you would feel," Thomas said facing them. He knew that despite his anger towards them, he had to control himself because of the kind of person they are. "No Uncle, we wanted to, but because of what was at stake, we couldn't but now we are ready to do so," Jake said Thomas was startled about this as he took a glance at me for confirmation of what Jake had said. "Yes, Uncle, we couldn't hold it any longer and after we have told you all want we need to tell you, you
