"Mr Carter," Jeremy said looking at Ethan from head to toe."Mr Gustav," Ethan said looking at Jeremy with a frown."I understand I was not fair to you but that is no reason to treat my woman badly and take over my company," Ethan said sounding a bit angry."Really?" Jeremy said with a frown"Is that what you think this is?" Jeremy added"A revenge? You think I am getting back at you?" Jeremy questioned standing just a distance away from Ethan who had now placed both hands in his pocket not bothered about his casual appearance in a public space. "So tell me. What is it then? I know I judged you wrongly and put you behind bars for a long time. When I found out the truth, I came over to get you the same day but someone came ahead of me the same day," Ethan explained "I see. I am glad you found the truth that quick but sorry someone was faster than you," Jeremy said sarcastically."Ethan, you know what? Let's not do this here. This place used to be yours and you don't want your employe
"I think, the chip I put inside Ethan's phone has been destroyed," Andrews said slowly at the realization."Good evening?" came the voice of three guards from behind Davis and Andrews."Our boss would like to speak with you," said one of the guards pointing a gun at Davis and Andrews.Andrews and Davis walked towards the apartment with their hands in the air as the three guards followed them with a gun.Inside Ethan and Jeremy were sitting opposite each other with a gun pointing at Ethan and Ethan's phone dismantled."If you have balls why don't you just kill me," Ethan said to Jeremy with a frown"Not yet Ethan. I have two more guests I invited to this meeting," Jeremy said and the front down was pushed open. Andrews and Davis entered the room. Ethan was surprised but he remained composed at Andrews and Davis sat down next to him."Are they the guest you were waiting for?" Ethan asked"They will be here soon," Jeremy said and the front door opened again. A lady entered wearing dark
Ethan sat behind the wheel and drove out of the compound wondering if he should go to Olivia's apartment or the penthouse. He occasionally checked to see if he was being followed but he saw nothing. Ethan decided to call his father to inform him about his mother leaving the hospital where she was receiving treatment. He connected his phone Bluetooth to the car and dialled his father's number. "Hello Dad," Ethan said "Hello Ethan, how did it go?" Mr Carter said "Dad, did Olivia come to the penthouse?" Ethan asked ignoring his question. "No, why?" Mr Carter asked "I am coming over," Ethan said and ended the call. Ethan checked the cars behind him from the rearview mirror. He made a turn towards the road leading to the penthouse after ensuring he had not been followed. He drove into the garage and stepped out of the car after parking. He walked towards the elevator wondering what was happening to Olivia. "I am not going to lose Olivia over some properties," Ethan thought as he st
"We have a swarm of reporters at your gate trying to get in," the guard reported and Jeremy frown"Ethan, what is your game?" Jeremy thought almost crushing the guard's phone in his hands. There was a knock on the door drawing Jeremy's attention to the front door. One of the servants quickly went to answer the door. "Jeremy, what is going on here?" Mr Green asked entering the living room looking angry with Mrs Carter trailing behind him together with Jacqueline. "I don't know yet but I am sure Ethan pull a fast one on me," Jeremy replied dismissing the guard after giving him back his phone and turning off the TV. "I told you that Ethan guy can't be trusted but you wouldn't believe me. We need an aggressive move. Where is that Olivia girl," Mr Green asked. "She is still inside the room," Jeremy replied "You have Olivia here? Perfect, time to slap the shit out of her for touching my husband," Jacqueline said taking her hand gloves off. "No one is touching that girl," Jeremy objec
"Andrews go get him. If he goes to Jeremy, I am not sure how things will turn out," Mr Carter said and quickly fetched his phone and made a call to someone"Be on standby, the worse may happen. If it does please, move in," Mr Carter said and hoped Jeremy would do the right thing.Outside the penthouse, the garage, Ethan got behind the wheel and drove out of the garage heading out of the compound. Andrews got there just in time to see Ethan drive out. He also got behind the wheel of another car and drove after Ethan. Back at Jeremy's apartment, Jeremy was on the phone with someone."Get those reporters out of my front door," Jeremy said "I don't want my apartment all over social media," Jeremy added"Good," Jeremy said and ended the call."Jeremy, did you ask them to send the reporters away?" Mr Green asked"Yes," replied Jeremy"Why? You could have used them to your advantage?" Mr Green said "How?" Jeremy questioned pacing up and down the living room."Simple, you go to them. Answe
He turned on his laptop. He sent a message to someone on his phone and then decided to get some work done waiting for nightfall. At a bar nearby, Ethan was sitting behind a table with a bottle of whisky in front of him. Andrews sat down on the chair opposite and tried to reason with him. "Ethan, I understand your concern for Olivia's safety but the way you are going about it is all wrong. Trust your dad. He knows what he is doing," Andrews. "Yes, he does. I have a question for you," Ethan said. "How did you and Davis escape leaving Olivia behind?" Ethan questioned and gulped down a glass of whisky "We were in the basement, Olivia was in the main house and the place was heavily guarded. We had no weapons," Andrews explained. "Convenient. Very convenient. So what you are trying to say here is that you guys were kept at an easy-to-escape place and Olivia was kept at a heavily guarded place. Very convenient, don't you think?" Ethan said sarcastically and Andrews sighed. "Ethan,..."
"You are right. I will be there early hours of the morning so we can discuss how we will get him out of police custody," Mr Green said and Jeremy acknowledged after which he ended the call. Jeremy sat on the bed staring at his phone screen after the call had ended. He shifted his gaze to Olivia who was lying on the sofa with her leg chained to the sofa. She appeared to be asleep but Jeremy knew she was lying down crying within or lost in thought. Jeremy shifted his gaze back to the phone and dialled a number. He brought the phone to his ears and waited for the call to connect."Hello, Mr Martin is in police custody," Jeremy said once the call was answeredTrue to Jeremy's thought, Olivia was lying on the sofa facing the back of the sofa awake. She was listening to what Jeremy was saying on the phone and trying to make meaning out of it. Olivia did not know what Mr Martin did but she was sure that if Mr Martin was in police custody, it was because he did something bad and Ethan got h
The servant hurried to the door and opened it. Jeremy was sitting calmly on the sofa while Mr Green watched the entrance wondering who would walk through the front door. Mr Green frowned seeing the person who had entered Jeremy's apartment. Davis and three other officers in uniform were standing in the living room of Jeremy. Mr Green turns to look at Jeremy hoping for an explanation but rather sees Oliva descending the staircase into the living room walking free. "Son, what is going on?" Mr Green asked looking at Jeremy "Dad, that is not how you welcome a good friend from the past," Jeremy said and sat down on the sofa crossing his legs. "Karma came to visit," Jeremy added. Olivia walked into the living room and found herself a seat. Mr Green looked at the Jeremy and Olivia. He turned his gaze to the officers who were just standing. One of them was holding a handcuff in his hand. "I don't suppose they are here for me," Mr Green said already concluding the officers were there for
