As Mr Jones was consoling his daughter, Richard Jones who was the elder brother of Rachel drove in the compound with his black ride.
He came down from the car, revealing a stunning man in a suit. He was almost identical to Rachel, with his curly hair which bounces as he walks his way into the house. When Richard entered the mansion, he noticed that everywhere was calm and quiet, he was about to walk upstairs when he saw a maid coming out from the kitchen. Richard paused in his step as he stared at the maid and asked with a straight face, “where is my father? “Good day young master”. The maid bowed her head as she greeted him before continuing , “Senior Master is at young mistress room”. She said respectfully. “Ok, get me a glass of water upstairs”. He said as he made his way upstairs. He wasn’t surprised where his father was, because ever since his little sister married, his father has been spending most of his time in her bedroom. That was why it was so neat even after months of no one staying there. Thinking of his baby sister who always calls his name with a childish voice made him feel nostalgic. He really misses her, but he will always respect her choice. He shook his head as he made his way to his bedroom. He was about to open his room when he heard a distant sobbing and a soothing voice coming from his sister’s room. He immediately recognized the voice to be his father, but he was curious of what was going on. So he abandoned his initial plan to rest and walked straight to his sister's room. When he got close, he heard the sobbing voice which made him open the room lightly to peek, but he was shocked with what he saw. His sister whom he was missing and thinking of a while ago was now present in her bedroom. He had totally forgotten about the sobbing sound and opened the door with excitement. As he entered the room, that was when he noticed that something was wrong. He stared at his sister who was whimpering uncontrollably in their father's arms and became scared and angry at the same. The last thing he never wanted to see in this life was his sister crying. He hates to see tears in her eyes, no matter what happens. Mr Jones who noticed his son, signaled him with his hand not to make any noise as he was still consoling his daughter. Rachel, who was still unaware that her brother was present in the room, was still sobbing softly. Although she pretended to be alright during her confrontation with Matthew, she was still heartbroken. She tried to wave it off but it just came back to her senses. She held her father's clothes tight as she felt safe to be in his arms. Seven minutes later, she stopped crying and regained herself. “He’s not worth crying for”. She murmured softly with a hoarse voice, but it was heard by her father as he was close to her. Seeing that she had stopped crying, Mr Jones took a deep breath and sighs in relief. Just like his son Richard, he also hates to see tears in her eyes, after all she was his only princess his late wife left behind, and he swore to protect her. “Are you ok princess? He asked with a smile on his face. “Yes dad”. Rachel said as she clutched his cloth while hiding her face in it. She wasn’t thinking straight earlier, but as she came back to her senses, she became embarrassed. Mr Jones chuckled when he saw her action, so he smiled and said with a teasing smile, “you don’t need to be shy princess, I’m your dad”. “Urgh… I know dad, but crying like that is just not cute”. She said with a whining voice as she continued to hide her face in his cloth. “But it’s ok to cry princess, it’s good for the eyes”. Mr Jones said as he tried to encourage her. Richard was speechless with his father’s words, but he chose to ignore it. He walked forward softly and was about to make his presence known, but his father’s deadly gaze made him stop in his tracks as he wondered what he did wrong. “Trying to interrupt us”. Mr Jones thoughts as he gaze at him with a disgusting stare Meanwhile Rachel was unaware of her father and brother silent confrontation as she said, “I know dad, it’s good to cry, but I’m now a grown up lady”. As she said this she sighed. “No one is above crying, so don’t think like that”. Mr Jones said. Richard was already seething with jealousy as he stared at his father and sister who were conversing with one another. Without wasting much time, he ignored his father's stares, as he walked to the bed and was about to sit on it, when Rachel finally lifted her head from her father’s embrace. “Brother”. She said happily as she stood up and threw herself into his body. “Hey slow down little sis”. Richard said as he caught her steadily with his hands while giving his father a smug look. Not minding his words at all, she circled her hands around his neck as she hugged him tight. “I miss you big bro”. She said as she smiled sweetly at him. “I miss you too, my little chipmunk”. He said as he winked playfully. Feeling vexed, she came down from his body and put her hands on her waist before saying with pouty lips, “I dare you to call me that again”. She doesn’t like the name at all but her brother always uses it to tease her. “Little chipmunk”. Richard said with a hefty laugh. Feeling challenged, Rachel clenched her fist as she punched him lightly, making him groan. She rolled her eyes when she saw him acting like that. So she stuck out her tongue and said, “maybe you should go for acting, I bet you will win an Oscar”. Rachel said with a teasing voice. “Ok Miss fatty”. Richard said with a smirk. “What do you mean? Rachel asked as she narrowed her eyes at him. “You know baby sis, you should lose some weight, I could feel my bones aching already”. Richard said as he shrugged his shoulders. “Dad”. Rachel stumped her feet as she complained to her father. Seeing the opportunity, Mr Jones said with a smirk “Dare to bully my princess “. As he reacted by kicking Richard so hard that he had to groan in pain. “That serves you right”. Rachel said with a giggle. Hearing her giggle, the two men smiled happily because they always want to see their princess happy at all times.Just as they were catching up, Rachel’s stomach made a funny sound, which made her embarrassed.She held her stomach as she gave her father and brother a sheepish look.“That sounds like a thunderstorm “. Richard said as he chuckled softly.Rachel frowned her face at her senior brother, but she didn’t say a word. She just stared at her father with pouty lips and sighed.She has forgotten that she has not yet eaten, and now she is famished.Mr. Jones wanted to use this opportunity to ask her what the problem was, but when he saw her hungry look, he decided to leave it for later.“Sure, princess, thank God I instructed the maids to prepare dinner.”. Mr. Jones said with a doting smile.“I’m so famished too.”. Richard said as he licked his lips, but he was met with a disgusting look from his father and little sister.“Are you a baby? Don’t you know your way to the kitchen? Mr. Jones asked as he hissed angrily.Richard was stunned and speechless as he saw the difference in his father’s act
In the Jones family house, seated on the office chair was Mr Jones who was looking so cold and serious.Richard and Rachel were both seated at the couch as they faced their brother.“Can we talk now? Richard asked with all seriousness evident on his face.He had been trying to hold his anger earlier by pretending to eat calmly, but now they were done with their meal, he was itching to hear what’s going on between his sister and Matthew.Seeing that she can no longer prolong the matter, Rachel sighed as she started telling them what was happening in her life.Ten minutes into telling them, Richard stood up angrily as he kicked the nearest stool which was close to him, making Rachel flinch in fear.Mr Jones was angry hearing his daughter's words, but he suppressed as he said angrily, “the audacity to treat my daughter like a slave”. “I will make sure his company goes bankrupt first thing tomorrow morning”. He said as he reached out for his phone.Rachel who was listening to both her fa
“Are you serious old man? Mr Davis asked shockingly.After being ignored by his wife, he took out a newspaper to read when he got a call from his best friend telling him what was going on in his daughter’s life.“Yes I am, I couldn’t believe it at all, so I immediately proposed my condition, after all she rejected it months ago but right now she definitely has no choice “. Mr Jones said smugly.Meanwhile Mr Davis was angry, so he kept the newspaper on the stool which was close to him and said “how dare that bastard treat our princess like a slave, doesn’t he know that he’s not in her class”. Not minding the “our”. He put in his word, he said coldly, “Don’t worry about that bastard , I’m going to make sure he regrets his action”. Although his daughter said that she was going to handle it herself, he would not just lay back and watch that bastard go away, so he decided to do it secretly without letting his daughter know.“I trust you man”. Mr Davis said.“So why don’t we set a date fo
The next day, Rachel was in a deep sleep when she was woken by a knock on her door.Opening her eyes groggily, she yawned and asked, “Who’s there?“It’s Violet.”. The maid replied.Although she didn’t know the person, she nodded her head, “Enter.”. Violet, who was the maid's name, entered the room quietly and walked towards the bed.Staring at her with curiosity, the maid smiled and responded, “Master sent me here.”. Knowing it was her father, she stared at the maid and asked, “So what’s going on?“He’s giving you 20 minutes to freshen up and meet him in the living room.”. The maid smiled and repeated his exact words.“Gosh, Dad…”. Rachel growled as she closed her eyes.She was still feeling weak, and she was not ready to start her day, so she looked at the table clock, which was on her bedside, and sighed.“Is Dad kidding me? It’s only 6 am in the morning. It’s too early “. Rachel laments as she yawns.Violet, who was watching Rachel's actions, almost giggled.“Ma’am? Violet called
Rachel, who didn’t have any idea that Linda was plotting against her, walked out of her room.Just as she was closing the door, she saw her brother, who was heading to his room with a flushed face.She could see the sweat that was on his body and concluded that he was coming from the gym, but his flushed face made her worried.“Are you ok, bro? She asked, making him stop in his steps.Laughing nervously, he stared at Rachel and said, “You are up, little sis”. “As you can see, bro”. She smiled and responded.“That’s good”. He chuckled nervously and said.“That reminds me, why is your face flushed? Are you unwell? Her questions made him almost choke.He casually touched his face and replied, “Don’t mind me, little sis, I’m just tired. You know, I have been in the gym for about an hour. You should join me sometimes, you know, to keep your body fit”. He said with a smile to hide his nervousness from her.When Rachel heard his words, she immediately frowned her face and said quickly, “No,
“I’m getting married, that’s why”. She blurted out.“What the fuck! I thought you just left Matthew, and now you are getting married? She asked with a confused look.“Yes, babes.”. Rachel sighed as she replied.“Did Uncle put you up for this? She asked when she saw her friend's downcast mood.“Yes, babe”. Rachel nodded her head and said pitifully.“I think I need to have a word with Uncle”. Olivia said and was about to stand up, but she was held back by Rachel.“You don’t need to tell Dad anything; I need to marry to take over the company. So it’s a win-win situation for me”. Rachel finally said.“Company? Olivia's eyes lit up, so she asked.“Yes, babe, I need it, after all, I’m not planning to let that scumbag go scot-free.”. She said with a smirk.“This is going to be interesting “. Olivia clasped her hands together and said with an evil smile.“But what has marriage got to do with this? She asked because she was confused.“Dad gave me a condition that I can’t refuse. If I want to t
At the Davis mansion, the family of four were having breakfast quietly when Genevieve decided to break the silence.She stared at her son who was wearing a black suit and blurted out, “hope you are not wearing this suit to meet your blind date? She asked.Eating calmly, Harris replied, “is anything wrong with my dressing? Meanwhile Hilary, who was eating his food, choked so hard that he started coughing.He stared at his brother in disbelief and asked, “big bro, you are going for blind date?But his question was met with silence which made him pout his lips.He looked at his mother and whispered to her, “Mum, is he really going for blind date?Giggling happily, Genevieve nodded her head, making him gasp.But then, she stared at him and said, “you are not getting any younger too, so make sure to find your wife too”.Her words make Hilary to be speechless, but he only forced a weak smile as he smiled lightly.“Of course mum, don’t worry, I will find a charming daughter for you”. He sai
Looking at the bustling mall which was filled with people, Rachel already felt a headache coming in, but before she could react, she was pulled over by Olivia who was already hyperactive.“Let’s go over there and check it out”. Olivia said as she pointed at a clothing section where varieties of gown were displayed.“Sure”. Rachel said, so they both walked into the store.Rachel breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that there was no one there except she and Olivia.“Let’s get this done”. She said happily.The sales girl who was there smiled sweetly and approached them.“Welcome to our store, what outfit would you like to have? She asked politely.“Office wears”. Rachel said. She wants to get the one she needs the most before buying anything else.The sales girl smiled and said, “follow me please”. They both followed her and came to the section where female suits were displaced.Rachel nodded her head as she saw the clothes, knowing her size well, she just pointed out the ones she ne
“Get me one coffee and cappuccino, with some pastries”. He said and stared at Freda, “do you need anything else?Shaking her head, Freda replied, “that will do”. “Alright, please hold on, I will be with your order shortly”. The waiter said and left them.“When did you arrive? Freda asked softly.“A while ago”. Hilary lied, he had actually been here since.Immediately after he left the house after eating breakfast, he drove to the cafe.“I’m sorry for being late”. Freda apologized .Chuckling, Hilary spoke, “you don’t need to, besides I didn’t wait for long”. “Even though”. Freda pouted her lips and told him, making him gulp his saliva hard as he stared at her pouty lips.“I should have stuck to the time by coming early”. Freda said , but she noticed that his attention was not there, so she had to knock the table twice, which brought him to reality.“Hey, are you ok? She asked with concern in her voice, which Hilary didn’t fail to catch.“Is she worried about me? He asked himself in
“Welcome Mrs Freda”. Rose, who was now the director of the school, greeted, as she touched Rapheal’s hair.Smiling, Freda didn’t correct her words and said, “I heard what happened”. “We are so sorry ma, please be rest assured that it’s not going to repeat itself again”. Rose bowed her head and apologized with a sincere look.She really felt sorry for Rapheal, but now she was happy to know that he has someone powerful backing him up, that means no more bullying from any student or teacher.“I hope so”. Freda said to Rose before squatting to Rapheal’s height.“Mummy is going right now, continue being a good boy, alright”. She said to him with her hands on his shoulder.Richard gave her a sweet smile as he nodded his head, “ok mum”. “That is my baby”. Rose said and ruffled his hair, making him pout his lips.“Mum, stop scattering my hair”. He complained to her as he tried to arrange it.“Alright baby, I will stop”. She said as she removed his hand and arranged his hair back to normal a
Actually, she was not that dumb. With his body language and the way he behaves around her, she has a feeling that he also likes her, but she’s afraid to ask.Sighing in frustration, Olivia stared at his face again, before closing her eyes.Shortly after, you could hear her breath from the phone.Richard who was resting for a while finally opened his eyes, he groggily sat up and stared around for a while, that was when he saw his sister, who was also sleeping on the bed.Laughing at his sister, he was about to leave the bed, when he noticed the phone in his sister’s hand.Gently removing the phone from her hand, he stared at the pretty angel who was in a deep sleep.Using his hand, he traced her face as he sighed.Rachel, who had already woken up, pretended to be asleep.When Richard was taking the phone, she was already awake, because she hadn't gone deep in her sleep.She waited to see Richard’s action before opening her eyes.“When will you notice my love for you? Richard asked soft
“Turn the camera around, I want to see”. Olivia demanded.“Alright my queen”. Rachel said, making Olivia giggle.Turning the back camera, Rachel started showing her around the office.“Oh My God, it’s so pretty and huge”. She said with a gasp.“I know right”. Rachel said as she continued showing her around the office.“Big bro, what is this door for? Rachel asked as she came across the door.She had not opened it yet to check what was inside it.Richard, who was pressing his phone raised his head up as he stared at the door Rachel was talking about.“Oh that? He asked.“Yes bro, what is in there? Rachel nodded her head and asked.Giving her a mischievous look, Richard replied, “why don’t you open it and take a look”.“I’m scared there might be something inside, so I’m definitely not opening it”. Laughing hard at his sister’s words, Richard answered, “Why?, there’s nothing to be afraid of though”. “You look suspicious. Why don’t you open it yourself? Rachel asked with a sweet smile.
Smiling, Rachel responded, “thank you”. Mr Jones nodded in approval as he began his speech.“As you all know, I started this company with my wife, and since she passed on , I have been running it for decades alone. It's finally time for me to step down and have a good rest”. He said with a nostalgic smile on his face and continued.“As a father, I must say, I’m proud to have my lovely children by my side. My son has proven himself capable of building and running his company himself without the help of anyone, and I must say I’m really proud of him”. Mr Jones said as he stared at Richard with a calm smile on his face, making Richard chuckle.“Thank you dad”. He mouthed to his father, who nodded his head repeatedly.“And as for my daughter, as you all know, with just a single proposal she sent to the company, it has been approved by international companies, which can help but make me more proud. With that alone, she has proven that she is more than capable of running this company, bet
Earlier, when Mr Jones and Mr Davis entered, the heard distance murmuring coming from the shareholders who were complaining about the delay.With anger, Mr Jones pushed the door open as he entered with Mr Davis following behind him.When the shareholders saw them, they immediately shut their mouth.Staring at them all with a cold look, Mr Jones spoke up, “what were you all saying earlier? Come on tell me I would love to be part of the conversation “. He said, making them smile stiffly.Giving Mr Jones a fawning look, they didn't dare say a word as they all sat there mute.Although they were shareholders in the company, they don’t have the rights to question Mr Jones since he was the biggest shareholder.The Jones family has a share of seventy percent alone,while Mr Davis and Harris who were both the second largest shareholders hold a ten percent each, making it twenty percent which is owed by the Davis family.Then the remaining ten were shared among the rest and branches of the Jones
“Are you ready? Mr Jones asked.“Very ready dad”. Rachel replied as they came down from the car.They got to the company three minutes ago.There was no need to use the private elevator, so they decided to use the lobby, which was packed with the staff.When they entered the company, it was bustling with activities .Everyone was focused on their work.They were highly trained by an expert before starting their work, so they know the do’s and don’t of the company.The receptionist who was busy with her work was the first person to notice them.So she clapped her hands to get the attention of others, which worked.They all raised their heads in curiosity as they frowned their faces at her behavior.Just then, they heard her loud voice, “let us welcome the new CEO of Helix Enterprise “. She said as she pointed toward Rachel who was in the middle of Richard and Mr Jones.They were surprised because most of them did not see them when they entered since they were too focused on their work.
“Dad”. Richard called to Mr Jones who was sitting on the chair with pouty lips.“What is it? He asked with a nonchalant voice.Ignoring his father's bored look, he asked, “Are we really going to turn a blind eye to Matthew's behavior over Rachel”. Smirking devilishly, Mr Jones replied to him, “says who? He deserves some lesson”. Mr Jones muttered angrily.“You must have something in mind right? Richard asked, making Mr Jones chuckled.“Definitely son”. He said with raised brows as he gazed at his son.Richard smiled as he stared at his father with curiosity on his face.“Come on dad, you can tell me. I may be of help”. Richard said quickly as he was eager to hear his father’s plan.Chuckling, Mr Jones leaned his head and waved for Richard to also do the same.Richard nodded his head, and leaned his head in the direction of his father, as he waited for him to speak.But after some time, he still didn’t hear anything, so he looked at his father and complained, “Dad, are you playing me
Rachel went to her closet as she came out from her bathroom.She smiled happily when she remembered she had selected her outfit last night.Without any delay, she walked to where she hung the cloth and brought it out.It was already washed and perfectly ironed by the maid who arranged the clothes for her.She walked to wear her undies and selected a two piece from it.Removing the bathrobe from her body, she wore her panties and bra, before wearing the office trousers which suited her perfectly.It felt like it was made just for her.After that, she sat down on her vanity table to start styling her hair.She thought about styles to make, but could not think of any, so she facepalmed herself and went to the bedroom to take her phone before entering the closet again.She turned on her phone and tapped on the Pinterest app where you can see different styles.Pressing the search bar, she typed, “different ways of styling hair”. After typing it, she waited for a few minutes, when the resu
