“ What the hell do you mean we need to share the workers?” Mateo ran his hands through his hair. “I came here first and as the rules state, first come first serve. And the service to me isn't over yet, so why share them?” Mateo spat.

“ I have every right to share them” Jayden took a step forward, not minding Mateo's furious red eyes. “ For the past weeks they have been of service to you, isn't that enough? Afterall i'm not asking for all of them, just some that would work with me!”

“ You have boys,” Mateo pointed at the boys behind Jayden. “ Aren't they enough?”

“ They aren't workers, they are just material movers. How can I work with them for production.” Jayden hissed.

“ Well that's not my concern, find a way to sort yourself out and leave my workers alone!” Mateo barked.

“ Mr Noah, you know very well how these things work right, why not tell him what he lacks?” Jayden demanded.

Everyone’s gaze turned to Mr Noah, and he sighed heavily. “Mr Huxley is right Mateo, we need to share th

    “ I told you right? I guess you have seen what I told you about Jayden, like I said before when I tried to convince you Jayden would do anything to win this competition and get what he wants!” Sebastian had told Mateo on the phone days back. “ I know you won't believe me and you would think I'm trying to ruin things for Jayden but….”“ I understand,” Mateo had interrupted, “ it showed when I was given the New Active CEO I was told to go meet Jayden and have a chat with him and I tried to but guess what? He shunned me off like….”“ That shows he doesn't want to make peace and simply wants everything!” Sebastian paused, “ just pray he doesn't win your workers over to himself and make Mr Noah work for him. that would bring disaster and you would end up like me!” “ End up like you?” Mateo exclaimed, “How? I don't understand?”“ Listen up. years back, I and Jayden went through a competition just like this in Germany and guess what happened!” Sebastian asked.“ What happened, I'm not good

    Lena chuckled catched by Mr Noah before she could make a move,she smiled sheepishly and slowly strolled towards the direction. Slowly she took tiny steps till she finally got to Jayden’s office.For minutes Lena stood at the door of Jayden's office wondering what to do next? Should I get in or send someone else? She asked herself. She thought for a while who to send but none came on mind. Well no one would agree to go into Jayden’s office, she would have to do it herself, she sighed severally, breath in and out as her heart kept pounding before she finally knocked.“ Yes! Come in!” She heard Jayden’s voice from inside.She cleared he throat, held the door knob and opened it,slowly she walked in.Jayden put down his pen and slowly raised his head up to see who just entered his office only to see Lena standing in front of him with a file in her hand. He smirked, blinked and slowly leaned back on his chair.Lena walked slow steps to his table and stood a tiny distance away after a few s

  • AFTER THE FALL   Why Me?

    Lena frowned, held her bag close and matched into the company, it's obvious everything I do is being noticed. She turned back to see Vicky and Tosi staring at her from behind. I need to be careful before everything goes out of hand. She bit on her lower lip.“ Hi Lena!” The junior workers greeted and she waved them off and head to the workshop area.“ Did she just waved without answering them?” Vicky said outloud for Lena to hear.“ It's obvious that's how she is, always acting all high and mighty because she works for the new Active CEO!” another replied.“You can say that again!” Tosi said out loud.Lena acted like she didn't hear them and walked on, she arrived at the workshop to see Mateo and the workers heavily on work already.“No, choose this, not this!” Mateo yelled at Mr Noah. “ Whatever!” Mr Noah pushed the wheel away and walked out on him. Kicking off any materials he could lay his legs on.“ What's wrong?” Lena rushed to Mateo, when she noticed this.Mateo shaked his hea

  • AFTER THE FALL   Same Mistake twice!

    Jayden followed the room service provider's finger and looked down the hallway only to see a wall ending the hallway. “That's a wall ending in the hallway, where did she pass through?”“ I didn't mean she passed through there, when I pointed down the hallway, I simply meant she went into that room!” She points at the room next to the last room.“ You mean she went into that room?”Jayden asked, raising an eyebrow, unable to believe what he just heard. He glanced back at the room service provider to be sure. “ You mean she checked into this hotel too?”“ Yes, she did. She checked in yesterday.” she replied.A curly smile appeared at the side of Jayden’s lips but he cleared his throat to contain his joy, he glanced back at the room down the hallway and smirked.“Sir.. sir…” the room service provider snapped Jayden out of his reverie and he turned to face her.“ Yes!” he replied, swallowed hard and stood tall.“ I came to ask if you need anything sir. we couldn't reach you to ask you what

  • AFTER THE FALL   A Night to Forget

    Lena felt a cold splash all over her as Jayden’s mouth met hers, she tried to struggle but he held her close, wrapped his hand around her back and drew her closer. Sliding his lips in and out of her mouth as he nod his head. He spun her to the wall and placed her there, raised her chin and placed a kiss on her neck then back to her lips. Lena tried to catch her breath but it was too much to handle, she held onto the phone in her hand as the kiss deepend, she felt so many emotions all together as he took control of everything, she closed her eyes letting all emotions pass through her. After a while of deep French kiss. Jayden pulled her from the wall and slowly lay her on the bed. He made sure she lay gently before he moved his lips again.Lena closed her eyes and he continued with the kiss, deep slow kiss that made Lena felt moisture in between her legs. She tightened the grips on her legs but Jayden touch made her loosen it up. He slowly moved from her lips to her neck, with his fi

    Jayden’s eyes met Lena’s and he grabbed onto the door knob tighter. “ Why are you here?” he asked, bite on his lower lip and stood tall.Lena looked into Jayden’s eyes and blinked slightly, she looked both ways on the hall way and glanced back at Jayden, “ Can't I come in?” she asked.“ Why should I let you in when you don't work for me anymore, you work for Mateo now right? So you should go met him.” Jayden spat, crossed his arms and stood in the door way.“ I came here today to asks you some few questions, and it's shocking how you just shut me off all because I work for Mateo now. Tell me was it my choice? Your Dad asked me to, as the Founder and head of the company you know very well I had no choice but to compile.” Lena retorted.“ I know, and so?”“ And so?” Lena exclaimed.“ Then why after that, you never came back to the office.”“ I couldn't because I was busy!
