“So how did it go?” Carson asked Lydia the moment they both got into the office. Lydia looked around the place as she was directed by Carson to sit on the couch. “It was a bit strange… I mean, he didn't even do a proper interview” Carson let out a small chuckle when he heard what Lydia said. “That's good” he smiled. All he has to do now is to keep to the end of his own deal, since his grandfather has done his. “The letter to meet in court has been sent to George, our first hearing would be five days from now. I hope you are ready?” Carson asked Lydia as he placed a glass in front of her before pouring a drink inside. “Well… I'm not doing the talking, Mr. Carson. You are… so are you ready?” Lydia asked back, making Carson chuckle. “I've never been this ready” he replied, making Lydia smile. She picked up her glass and had a sip from it. “But are you ready to face George? You know what I always say, having confidence is winning half the case” “I am. I'm ready to face him and w
After dropping Lydia off at the school, Carson made his way to see a certain someone. He knew if he didn't, Lydia might get fired before she even resumed, and that would make her really sad and look down on herself again. Since he had been spending time with the girl, he became open to her. He didn't like to see her cry or sad. It irritated him, so he planned to do whatever he could to make sure she didn't cry, especially because of a job again.Carson made his way into the gigantic house, it's been a long time since he stepped foot into this house. He lets Gary come here as much as he likes, but not him. He stopped coming to the house when he had a very serious argument with his father, which has not been resolved to date.“Mr. Carson” a lady bowed when she saw who had stepped into the house. The shock was evident in her voice as she said, “Good afternoon sir” “Hm, Good afternoon. Is my grandfather in?” “Huh, yes sir. Yes sir” she repeated twice. “Tell him I am here” he stated,
Carson stared at his grandpa and was so confused. He has never been more confused. 'If I tell him she is just a client, Grandpa that I know will never let it be just that. And I can't just say she is a friend, I mean what kind of friend will make me strike a deal with him? Not just a friend, a female friend at that'"Well, she's just a client" Grandpa Walters burst into laughter. "Carson, wait a minute. Do you think I am a child, I gave birth to your father in case you have forgotten". Grandpa Walters said with a hint of mockery. He knows Carson like he knew the back of his hand. Carson would never do this much for just a client. In fact, aside from winning the clients case, there was nothing more he does with any client."I am not lying to you Grandpa, I know you are never gonna believe me, but you need to believe me on this one. Lydia is just a client that really needs help with a Job, and I am doing this for her because it's surely going to help my case in court Grandpa". Carson
On Carson's way home, what his grandfather said kept troubling him, so he decided to give his best friend a call. Nick was the only one he could speak to right now. The man might have the best idea to give to him.“Damn it” he spat out as he reasoned, if he had known, he wouldn't have made the deal in the first place. At first, he suspected it was about marriage, but his grandfather had taken it to another level by giving him a time frame. He surely would have to think twice before giving his grandfather a call“Hey man, I really need your help. I am losing my mind, we need to see, Nick” Carson rushed his words in a worried tone that caused Nick to pause his steps. “What could make the almighty Barr. Carson Walters worried?” Nick asked with Surprise, making Carson roll his eyes. He was definitely not mighty, alright.“I'm in need of a wife before the end of the year, Nick. I have to be someone's husband and someone has to be my wife. And I don't have a say in it. So, I need you to c
Grandpa Walters was sitting in the living room watching Sports with a glass of wine in his hand. His mind suddenly drifted to the Deal he had with Carson earlier on. He believes there is no way out for Carson on this one.He wondered why Carson didn't want to get married and how long he planning to continue like this. Gary is just a little boy and he definitely needs a mother's love and Care. Aside from that, the man needs someone to love too. But, it seems Carson doesn't care. He has tried talking to Carson Calmly, he even helped get Carson on different blind dates but he seems not to be serious with any of them.If not that he heard the news of how he met with women, he would have thought Carson is gay. This is not difficult to believe but then, he always had his cock in one girl or the other. He wasn't just ready to settle. But he will nowGrandpa Walters wants to believe he was left with no choice but to take this drastic decision. He was looking forward to a day like this when h
Lydia woke up very early, she couldn't even sleep very well because she was so happy to resume her new job. Suddenly, her mind drifted to how she has been struggling to look for a job for a long time and how George has made her name circled around different companies blacklisted. She was so happy with the way her life was going. She now has her peace. Her daughter was with her, not just with her but also in school. Carson has really helped her a lot, and she will be willing to do anything to help him. She thought of the favor Mr. Carson was talking about, what is it Mr. Carson really needed as a favor? Well, whatever it is I am willing to assist him. He has done more than enough for me.Suddenly, the alarm clock rang. It was 6 a.m. already. It was her first day at work. She wouldn't want to be late, she wanted to set a good example. She remembered what Mr. Carson always says, First impressions matter a lot. She stood up quickly and rushed into the bathroom. She picked some of the bea
After a busy day at the office, Carson decided to pay Nick a visit to the hospital. When Carson got to the hospital, he was told that Dr. Nick was in the theatre so he had to wait since it was an emergency. He decided to wait because he really was disturbed by his grandfather's request. He needed to know if his decision was something he could push through and his friend was the only one who could help him out. “Our soon-to-be groom, the groom without a bride. I am so happy you are about to be a real Man.” Nick laughed, teasing Carson as he walked over to shake hands with his friend. Carson, on the other hand, wasn't finding it funny, he was gazing at Nick, not knowing whether to laugh about it or not. Nick didn't relent, he kept saying he was ready to be the best man. “I will stand by you all the way, you can't remain a bachelor all the days of your life. Hot, cute barrister Carson. I think I support Grandpa Tony on this one. So be strong, you are about to become a man” Nick said a
“Thank you very much for coming Mr. Alex, we will be fixing another appointment for surveying the project. I hope we will be awarded the contract because I can't wait to start working with you and your team. I know we will make a good force together," George said while walking out of the boardroom.Hahaha, “I agree with you, Mr. George. I like how your team handled their presentation, giving us the confidence that we are in good hands” Mr. Alex said, shaking hands with George. After George had bid Mr. Alex and his team goodbye, he walked straight to his office with a smiling face and a few dancing steps. He was so happy the presentation was a success because this is one of the biggest contracts he has applied for all his years working. A deal worth billions of Naira. When he got to his office, he thought of what he could use for celebrating this Joy. We walked directly to his shelf where his drinks were kept, after making different choices, he finally picked up a bottle of wine to
