In the large working space of the Dee_McCall’s building are employees pacing around in panic as they move from one table to another to pick up phone calls and end some. Rhett is seen making his entrance with his iPad in hand and face focused entirely in distress; his assistant was no exception.They both walked briskly into the office and immediately two other people followed after.“Good morning Mr.Rhett… have you heard…” the first man tried to report but he was too shocked to find his words.As this was provoking Rhett’s patience, he yelled at him “Do you think I’m here to have fun??”“I’m sorry boss, it’s just that the public now knows about this somehow and we’ve been getting calls from our investors about pulling out and getting a refund” he rushed out in a panic.“What?” Rhett exclaimed, dropping his iPad on the table and followed by his hands. Confusion pooled on his face.“How?” he faced Optimist.“I have no idea who’s behind this boss” Optimist replied with a head nod.“It c
A rare color of a BMW car swerved into the biggest villa in the city and as it came to a perfect halt, the smooth body shone brightly under the scorching sun. In repudiation of the bright aura of the car and its owner, the workers standing were forced to shield their faces for safety. They need no one to tell them about who has come to visit them. The only man with a specially designed BMW of that color in the city is the billionaire businessman Rhett McCall.As its doors raised in style, Rachel’s feature came into view and this immediately earned demeaning looks from everyone around.It wasn't until Rhett came out of the car that they offered their polite greetings.Anxiously, Rachel grabbed her purse tightly as her eyes wavered with guilt and fear. The fact that Rhett hadn’t said a word to her since they left the company was enough to drive her crazy. She wondered if Rhett’s purpose for bringing her over to visit the grandfather was to expose her and break off the engagement.Unexp
“Have a nice day Mommy” Kristian waved to his mom with a polite smile as he joined the rest of the kids walking inside the school building.“Yes sweetheart, have a nice time with your friends and study hard,” Ashley said but in a matter of seconds, the smile on her face faltered when a bigger-looking boy bumped into her son on purpose with a mischievous grin on his face.“Uh uh… what is that?” she queried with raised brows as she started to approach the gate.But before she could speak out to call the attention of the teacher, her son had bumped into the bully to fight back.Collective gasps were heard as the boy fell face flat on the rocky ground and as he raised his bruised head, other kids started laughing at him while his minions sympathized with him.“How did this happen? oh no” The female teacher exclaimed, rushing to his side to help him up.“If you’re someone of that size then you should be careful with your movement. Sorry man” Kristian said with shrugged shoulders; he then t
Ashley banged her hands on both sides of Rhett’s broad shoulders and pushed him away with all of her force which of course was a little effort of hers that Rhett decided to honor. Not like she’s strong enough to fight him off. Her breathing intensifies and she can barely move her body from the spot. Ashley’s eyes brimmed with tears and redness as she suckled her lower lips in anger which impeded her breath for a few seconds.Rhett felt a sting on his lower lip and he licked the bloody cut with a sickly smile on his face, watching Ashley battle with her wave of emotions. “Now get in the car Ash” he ordered with preeminence.As much as she wanted to fight back and challenge him right on the spot, she could not find the strength to do so, and anything that would come out right now would be nothing but tears. And she has promised never to show her vulnerable side to anyone ever again.Ashley glanced over the set of broad shoulders before her and scanned the busy road ahead with a calcula
Rachel’s attempt to get the old man’s full attention was successful judging by the fullness of his weak eyes on her.With a sly movement from her end, Rachel wiped the imaginary tears from her eyes and started; “Grandfather, I know I shouldn’t be telling you this since Rhett hasn’t briefed you about it yet but I can’t take this anymore” “You’re still not talking Rachel, you don’t have to continue crying when I’m here listening to you” “Apologies grandfather. It’s just that my stepsister is back in town and she’s been threatening my position since she got back” She explained.“What? How? I thought she was reported dead 2 years ago after she disappeared without traces” “We all thought she was dead until she showed up alive. That girl didn’t even visit the family that took care of her for once, she’s hell-bent on seducing Rhett and taking revenge on me” Rachel’s brows drew together in anxiety and her hands grabbed onto the old man’s hand desperately.The old man gently removed his ha
“Kristian? Where’s my son?” Ashley made an outcry as she jumped down the numerous stairs. Her steps in twos and threes at this point.Clara, the house's new Chef was getting ready to leave when she heard her Madame's voice from the second floor.“Madame, is everything okay?” she asked in concern.Ashley tan right into her stretched hands and grabbed it desperately “I can’t find Kristian” she stated with a hitched breath, her face pale and composure chaotic.“Mommy? I’m right here” Kristian’s voice sounded right from the corridor as he made his way to the scene.Ashley let out a heavy sigh of relief as she looked at her little boy, her body tilting towards the ground still in Clara’s grasp.“Why are you so scared ma’am? Did you see anything strange?” Mr.Fred asked glancing over at the windows with suspicion.Kristian walked to his mother’s side to give her a warm hug “You look scared Mommy…” he alerted her, his jaded eyes piercing into her deep blue ones that were now downcast with emo
“Ugh…I shouldn’t have taken that milk” Young Kristian groaned in pain with his fistful hand clenching his tummy. It’s been a while since he had homemade food and he seems to have eaten beyond his usual diet at dinner.He could not stop turning and churning in bed and at first, he thought of alerting his mother but that was soon replaced with fear of worrying her in the middle of the night so he decided to visit the restroom first.Kristian struggled to get off the bed, the urgency of his plight overshadowed his sleepy motion.Some minutes later, he was done.He heaved a sigh of comfort the moment he arrived in the cool space of his room. He stretched his body and was about to go to bed when his hand pressed against an almost invisible button while aiming for the light switch.Taken aback by a faint robotic sound and the light bulb still shining bright in the room, Kristian gasped when he saw a space opened up in the wall and a box came into view.“Wowwww” Kristian dragged his amusemen
“Prepare the car, I’ll be done in five” Rhett informed his assistant over the phone with urgency. He removed his overcoat from the hanger, taking it briskly and struggling to slip on the overcoat.Any father would react that way if they got a call from an impossible lovable relative.Rhett never expected to hear from his little boy, the fact that he had reached out to him out of nowhere has somehow fueled new hopes and direction in his life. The coincidental meeting at the party was different, he should have known right from there at the party or the delightful energy he felt from him at the hotel when they first met.Luckily, the elevator was vacant at the moment else it would be a great pity for whosoever was available at that minute to fall prey to his bad side should they be using the elevator when he’s in a rush.Long strides into the elevator, he glanced at his wristwatch excitedly, unable to accept the faster pace of the elevator.Finally, the elevator stopped and as its doors
