Anita had already walked into the room that she shares with Glory, not stopping in their living room either, because she was so upset by her mother's statements. Her mother may be both amusing and aggravating at times, and she doesn't want to get offended. Anita removes her mother's large white-colored gown, which she wore to work, and is left in her underwear and bra when her mother opens her room door and walks in. "Anita, what has come over you?" Mrs. Tonia questions. "Mom." Anita turns to face her mother. "Why did you walk out on us?" Mrs. Tonia Baker asks again, folding her arms across her chest. She shakes her head and goes to sit on her daughter's bed. "Mom, I did not leave you. I need to freshen up," Anita admits. "You are still lying, even in my presence. What do you mean by "CEO's father"? You mentioned something linked to him." "I know, mother; I was only saying that his father actually collected my phone number." "To do what?!?" Mrs. Tonia interrupted Anita. "To
"Big sister, I'm leaving for my room. "Nice, you and Glory are now sharing this room," Flora says to Anita, as she stands up from the bed, remembering the room she formerly shared with Anita. "Yeah, you can say that again." Anita smiles and enters the bathroom to take a bath, while Flora exits. As Anita stands in her bathroom to turn on her shower, she recalls standing inside the elevator with the chilly CEO, as her mother used to refer to him, and she smiles, recalling the unpleasant moment with him inside the elevator. Anita, however, frowns as she recalls the girl who slapped her shoulder and accused her of enjoying sharing an elevator space with the handsome CEO. Anita isn't going to lie to herself; the CEO is attractive, but he's Temisa's soon-to-be husband, and she'll never be involved with him. "Oh, oo, Anita, what are you thinking about smiling foolishly at yourself?" She asks herself as she exits the shower and walks to her bathroom mirror to gaze at her stunning reflecti
"Big sis, your phone was ringing, so I was coming out now to give it to you," Glory explains to Anita, handing the phone back to Anita. Anita takes her phone and instantly looks at the caller. "Temisa," she says, and the phone rings again while she instantly picks it up. "Hello, Temisa, good evening," Anita says first. "Good evening, girlfriend. I just completed my meal, and my father can't stop telling my mother and brother about you today," Temisa says, chuckling. "Really?" Anita asks nervously as a smile spreads across her gorgeous face while she enters her bedroom. "Yes, my father cannot simply cease portraying you to them. However." Temisa's voice trails off, and Anita can sense her despair. "About what?" Anita inquired in a very concerned tone. "Hmph, not to worry; just family matters." Anita can hear Temisa's sighs and knows Temisa isn't ready to tell her about her father's criticisms of her. "Is he complaining about our friendship?" Anita ultimately asks. "No oo! No
Meanwhile, Liam is upstairs in their family mansion, starring at his gorgeous white cousin, who refuses to let him rest as she keeps following him up and down the staircase and even into his chamber. Liam sighs and returns her downstairs to her mother, where she's sitting in the living room with his mother. "Big brother, do you go to school?" Cynthia asks him as he delivers her back to her mother's arms, who is sitting on the couch too. "No, Cynthia, I am a businessman, not a student," he says, his mother and aunt smiling at him. "Really? "But mom told me that my older brother is in school," Little Cynthia explains. "No. "Maybe not me, but one of your big brothers, like your father's brother's children," Liam says. "Okay, do you have a wife?" Cynthia inquires again, shocking Liam, and he stiffens. "Cynthia!, "What do you know about your wife?" Her mother interjects while cuddling her up. "But mom, you told me that my uncle would be marrying soon!" Little Cynthia accuses her mot
Anita swiftly enters the massive five-story factory complex and heads for the elevator on the first grand floor. She notices all of the penetrating eyes on the first floor gazing at her as the elevator door closes and she ascends to the third story. She comes out nervously, seeing everyone on the third floor watching her as she walks back to her office, where they've all taken their seats. She swallowed, not daring to meet or look at them. Furthermore, she checked her wristwatch and saw it was 7:48 a.m. "Not yet late," she says as she steps into the open office that she shares with Margret, not seeing Margret at all. Anita exhales and puts down her handbag to sit. Brown knocks on her glass door and enters her office to meet with her. "Good morning, Miss Anita Baker." Brown continues, "The boss has requested that you see him as soon as you arrive." She stands up instantly. "Okay." Anita places her bag in the desk drawer and walks out of her open office once Brown has left, heading
Anita begins to eat and eagerly moves her dish of meals closer to herself. The corporation serves three major foods: jollof rice, fried rice, and porridge yam, and all of its employees have access to these items, with the exception of rare occasional meals. Anita rapidly finishes her Jollof rice and chicken. Temisa understands Anita isn't lying about the ex-secretary's dismissal. Anita finally rises up from her chair to leave the cafeteria after finishing her lunch, and she hasn't seen the CEO depart because she was eating and peering at the cafeteria entrance door. "I have to go now, Temisa; see you later at closing hour." Anita smiles at Temisa before turning to leave. "That's alright, so I will be waiting for you after closing, right?" Temisa asks. "Hmm, if you can, but I don't want you to be stressed," Anita said. "Why? Did I complain to you that I am stressed?" Temisa asks as she stands up too, and she takes her water bottle to drink. "No, you didn't. Okay, you may wait; I
Oyinda Matthew walks out of Liam's office and marvels at the open-glass offices in view. She clicks her shoe lightly on the tiled floor, looking around, and she stands in one location. Oyinda sighs and returns to Anita's office to meet her, since she still doesn't understand why the CEO fired his prior secretary. She was horrified to get the news. She walks into Anita's office and says, "Where's the CEO's assistant office?" Still standing. "Oh, the next two offices over there," Anita indicates, indicating the location of Brown's office, and Oyinda Matthew perceives the young lady as ignorant of whether she is furious with her or not. "Okay," Oyinda said, getting out of the office and heading to the assistant's office. She maintains her gaze fixed on the boss, who was standing in his office door when she last left him. Oyinda gazed at Brown, who motioned for her to sit. "How may I help you, ma'am?" Brown asks her, and she sighs and glances at him. "I am here related to the partn
Detective Noah helps Anita exit the police station building, and they both stand out in the police yard. "I am sorry about your father's case," he says,.and Anita slips away from his grip and says, "Thank you." She turns to leave, and he says, "You'll have to find a lawyer for him, because that's the only option he has now." "Okay," Anita nods and walks out of the station, looking dejected. Similarly, Alfred Martin drives by the station, slowing down as he reverses his automobile backwards. He notices Anita and drives backward, wondering if he isn't seeing double. "Is that not Liam's secretary?" He asks himself, since he has forgotten her name. He's traveling home to his father's estate when he decides to take a shortcut, passing by the police headquarters. Alfred slows down and stops in front of Anita; however, Anita walks past his car on her way to the next bus station to wait for a public transit bus to arrive. "Hello!" Alfred calls after Anita, having forgotten her name. "
