Steph was going to face the worst tragedy ever. Mr. Jackson was facing life and death all in the next few days. All of this is hidden from them. On Saturday, George was taking a bath when he heard the bell ring in the living room. He was not expecting someone on the weekend. In fact, he wanted to take Steph out later in the evening. He was sure one of the helpers in the room would take care of whoever was ringing the bell. He relaxed in the bathtub and closed his eye. He had a very rough day with so many things piling up at the company. He has not been to the office in the last few days. He had been working from home in the evening. The next thing he heard was someone entering the bathroom without knocking, which was unusual. He quickly opened his eyes to check. He was surprised to see Sharon. She was totally naked. “What are you doing here," Asked George coldly Sharon had a very sexy body. Any average man could have fallen to her seduction but not George. With all his love, mind
George received a call from one of the secret bodyguards he had assigned to Steph. He was shocked by the news he received. The accident has caused a great sensation on the internet. It was reported that the street light had malfunctioned, leading to a major accident that acclaimed the life of two people. George did not finish listening on the phone or the TV. He ran like crazy. He was scared. His mind was all on Steph. That woman would be the end of him. He arrived at the hospital and found she was still in the operating room. He waited outside and was joined by the rest of the family. Mercy was sobbing at the corner. She was praying for her sister to survive. She woke up this morning and saw the news that an accident had happened on the highway at the junction. She almost ignored the news until she saw the car and the number plate. She was shocked and screamed. Her Stem on Nicole comes down to see what’s happening. Mercy pointed at the breaking news on the TV While mumbling,
In the next few days, George stayed with Steph in the room. All the work from the office was done from the hospital room. He had another bed added in the room to accompany her. He then mobilized all his men in the city and to do investigations on the accident. The police report said it was a normal accident at the junction, but he did not believe it. He had his men look into the lorry driver profile and all his connections. It turns out the family received one million shillings to get rid of the people in the car. It was planned assassination from the beginning. The driver of the lorry was in police custody for allegedly driving under the influence of alcohol. They made everyone believe in the news that it was an accident caused by an alcoholic driver. With his connections, George made sure the guy was brought to him from the police station. In his warehouse in the suburb, people were tied in different cells with no food and water. They have not been tortured yet. One of the p
If there was someone who was hurt seeing her like that was George. No matter what he did, she did not cheer up. He stayed with her in the room, fed her, called the nurses to help her clean. One of the nurses came to clean her the next day before they left for home, but unfortunately, Steph collapsed. Her mental state was not good, which led to her not able to hold on. She fainted again. George called the doctors in urgency. As soon as he heard the attending nurse shout Steph’s name, he could not hold on and rushed into the bathroom. He carried her naked to the bed and called the doctor. He then covered her with the clean sheets before helping put on her dress in quick succession. These few days have allowed him to understand what she was going through and who she is. He swore to love her forever. The doctor rushed to access her. “There is nothing to worry about. She is just exhausted. She will wake up in a few hours.” The doctor said giving instructions to the attending nurse b
The burial took place in their rural home with friends and family only. The security was tight. The governor and his wife attended and offered their condolences. They have been close to Steph for the last few months and have taken her as their daughter. Though they don’t spend much time, she is practically family. She was pushed in a wheelchair by her boyfriend throughout. During the burial service, she sat with her sister and George. John has also been very attentive to her, which was not surprising to her. John has always been good to her, and they have no issues. After the ceremony was done and their father laid to rest, they went home. According to their culture, they have to mourn for more than a month before revenging or having bloodshed from any family member. For a whole month, Steph was excessively quiet. From George’s observation, whatever was brewing in her mind was an awaiting bomb and could sweep everyone with it. He didn’t like it. Her smile and jovial character have
Looking at the still-new grave, Steph could not help but cry. George was holding her on the side, and Mercy was crouching down to place flowers they brought. Looking at the well-painted name JACKSON ROBERT born in 1970, died in 2021. HUSBAND TO LATE SARAH JACKSON. FATHER TO STEPHANIE AND MERCY JACKSON. STEPFATHER TO JOHN AND SHEILA JACKSONOne could know if the gravestone was intentionally written or not, but Nicole Jackson was not featured.“Dad, I am here to see you again. I miss you. I will not let this lying down. Everybody involved in your demise must pay dearly. Wait for my news.” She then moved to the next grave that seemed a bit old. I have been more than 10 years since her mother died. She didn’t know what had happened at that time, but her dad said she was sick.He said she had cancer or something. Her mom was the most beautiful woman she had ever seen. The smile was enough to brighten one’s day. She also had Mercy place the flower on her grave.“Mom. It has been a month s
In the next few days, the will was read. As expected, he was working with Nicole. Everything was left in her name.Not even a cent was left to us, the real kids, the house, the company, and the hotel chain. Even her own kids were not included in the will.The degree of selfishness the woman had was beyond kinship.Steph did not say anything. She looked at how everything was going and stood on her feet, holding one of the clutches.She then asked patiently“Are you sure that is the will my father left?”“Yes.” replied the lawyer. Taking a closer look at the man, Steph repeated the same question again.“Are you really sure it’s his will?”“It’s his will, young lady. If there is nothing else, I’ll take my leave.”Steph did not look at them anymore and left to her room, taking a step at a time going upstairs.George was not around on that day. He had other plans on his endIf the people in the living room were keen, they would have noticed the smirk on her faceShe went to the bathroom, s
Two weeks after the will was read, things started to crumble in the company. The shares dropped. There was not enough money to keep the company afloat. The shareholders were selling their shares at a very low price. This is not something Nicole expected. The number of calls she received asking for their money back was absurd.“What is happening? The company was okay, according to the report I got.”Some of the shareholders under the influence of Steph reported Nicole and the company for fraud and embezzlement. Nicole did not see that coming.After a few days of investigating the company, it was determined that Sheila was involved in transferring money to her personal account and another foreign account.Sheila was then arrested for embezzlement and helped in the investigation of the foreign account. They did not see that coming. Most of the lending companies come for their money. Nicole was corneredIf there was someone who was watching the show from the sides, it was Steph. Every sin
