Not A Coincidence

Chapter Two Hundred And Seventy-OneThe regional head swallowed hard as Lana said those words. The intensity of hatred that had glittered in her eyes when she said this works were enough to make him shit his pants.What on earth had happened when she told him to leave the room?What had she discovered? What had she seen?What had she heard and what was making her act like this?Lana's face was grim and her fingers clenched into fists above her keyboard, almost crushing them.The hotel staff and the regional head noticed this and realized it was time tot them to bow out of the room."Alright then, you can have your leave," Regional head Martin's quickly said, as he hurriedly ushered the staff from the room, "I'm so sorry for the false alarm. If you could take care of the ambulance as well, it would be a big help."The hotel staff needed no other persuasion to leave the room. They quickly bowed their heads on response and exited the room quickly, as if their tails were in fire."Please,

He Had Help

Chapter Two Hundred And Seventy-TwoThe regional head scrambled to his feet and took his seat beside Lana."Since we already know that Director Evans is the one behind Damien's accident, then all we have to do is prove it, " She said determinedly as she continued working on her laptop, "In the meantime, I have to finish up some of the investigations that I've been making concerning some of the company's funds."She smirked, "Its high time he knows who he's dealing with," she muttered, more to herself, "If he thinks I'm just going to let him waltz over and take over the company, then he has to think again."The regional head did not know what to reply to that. He did not known if Lana was talking to him or not.At the moment, her disposition scared and awed him at the same time.She still looked pale and sickly, like someone who had been through a lot and all in the space of a few minutes. But there was a fire burning in her eyes and in her heart. The regional head thought she looke

Chapter Two Hundred And Seventy-Three Throughout that day, she worked with the regional head. The man sat beside her making calls to the numbers on the list she'd given him, and crossing out the names of those he'd called and delivered her message to.The message was simple and straight to the point.Regional Head Martins sent a cropped up picture of a falsified document, with the shareholders names and signatures on them, along with the text."Is this what you'd be interested in? I have more of these, something that could destroy you...or save your life. We meet tonight at 9:00pm, at the old Queen's club in Crestview. Privately. No aides. No delays. This message never existed.”Lana worked all that day until it was almost nine pm and she had to prepare for her meeting with the shareholders.She had no doubt they would come.There was one particular thing about Romero's board members. They were all self righteous pricks who believed they had the Romero Empire's interest at heart.

You Got The Message Too?!

Chapter Two Hundred And Seventy-Four THE OLD QUEEN'S CLUB, 9:00PMDirector Laurie stepped out of his sleek range rover just as it stopped outside the Old Queen's Club.He adjusted his cufflinks and his very expensive suit, as he looked about him, his expression tight and unreadable.Looking up at the building before him, he could not help but feel a sense of foreboding envelope him.The building was a three-story stone mansion, tucked away in a discreet part of the city, where streetlights are sparse and limousines often roll by unnoticed.The building was of Gothic architecture. The walls facing the road had Ivy crawling up them like green veins.The Old Queen’s Club, as it was called was the kind of place where powerful men met behind velvet curtains and secrets are currency.Lives were traded, and expensive exchanges were made.This was a place he'd comfortably visited previously. He normally walked into the Old Queen’s building with the knowledge that the chips were on his side ,

The Four Men

Chapter Two Hundred And Seventy-Five"What the hell?"The swear words flew out of his mouth as Director Laurie marched up to the round table, his eyes getting adjusted to the dimmed lighting."What are you all doing here? Don't tell me...you all got a message as well?" His voice and neck lowered a bit in fear as he uttered those words.A few Directors sighed and threw their faces away with expressions of frustration. They were clearly uncomfortable gathered around like bunch of chickens, while waiting for what seemed like an executuoner."Its 9:15 already," Director Phillips muttered grimly as he glanced at his expensive rolex, "The text said 9:00. What the hell are we doing waiting for someone who is obviously pulling a joke on us?""If you think its a joke, why don't you get up and leave?" Another muttered under her breath giving Director Phillips a disdainful look.It was Director Mina. She was nervous as hell, and she knew the men were as well.She did not understand why they we

Not Falsified At All

Chapter Two Hundred And Seventy-SixThe door creaked open and the Regional Head stepped in, holding the door open.The members of the board in the hall had their jaws drop open in shock, as Lana appeared, walking regally with her head held high."CEO...Fernandez?!""What's this? What is she doing here?""Something is not right. You think she sent those texts to us?"Lana could hear their mutterings and could see the look of despair that crossed their faces.She smirked as she walked towards the seat at the head of the table, all eyes watching her in stupefied amazement."Gentlemen, there's no need to stand up," Lana said as she took her seat, looking round at them.Some of the men were already on their feet, shock propelling them to stand aloof, looking like deer caught in the headlights."Yo...you...did you..." Director Phillips sputtered, unable to say the words."Did you send the text?" Director Mina asked sharply, giving Lana a confronting look.Lana gave her a chilling smile, ens

The Notifications

Chapter Two Hundred And Seventy-seven The men sat up, eagerly as those words left Lana's mouth.They were eager to hear from her and how she proposed to stop whatever it is that was going going on."Listen to me, you all indeed have your names and signatures on documents authorizing a criminal act," She continued, her voice loud and clear, "At the moment, you all are accomplices even though you're unaware of this.""That's what we've been saying," Director Phillips muttered under his breath.Director Mina gave him a sharp look, and the man quelled his bitter mutterings. Lana heard him however, and smiled at him."Well, let me tell you about the one who is aware of everything," she said outloud, "The one who orchestrated all that is none other than your precious Director Evans,""Impossible," Director Laurie replied at once, "That cannot be."But the statement was weak and he glanced at the the others uncertainly.Director Mina scoffed, "Hmph, are you not just saying this because he

At Her Mercy

Chapter Two Hundred And Seventy-EightThe Hall erupted with shocked yells and exclamations of dismay."How is this possible?!""What the hell?! What have you done?!""Is this for real?! This is unacceptable!"They banged their fists on the table and shook them in the air.The sounds of chairs scraping back filled the air as some of the men stood up in fury."This..."Director Mina's hands trembled rapidly as she held out her phone, "This is nonsense!" She bit out, glaring at Lana, "How dare you set us up, trying to ruin our reputations?""I didn't set you up," Lana shrugged, enjoying the look of terror in the faces of the people before her, "Director Evans did.""That's impossible!" Director Laurie replied, his face red with anger, "I know Director Evans! He would never do something like this. You were the one who forged the documents.""Okay, let's say that was the case," Lana said, her tone calm and patient now that she knew the ball was in her court, "How would I be able to get you

Check Two Hundred And Seventy-Nine"Is that what you want?"Director Mina's voice cut across the hall, silencing all. The men in the room had stopped their grumbling and tell and furious grunts and now stood staring warily at Lana.Their eyes held an hint of expectation though.Previously, they had been the ones to vote her out of her position. They had unanimously done that, even went ahead to a court and got an order that stifled her power and froze her authority until the chairman was found.The chairman was still not found though, but the members of the board felt like they needed to do something to save themselves from this crisis that had befell them."Now you're talking," Director Nathan grinned, glancing over at Dorevtor Tates.The two men smiled happily, nodding their heads in satisfaction as they turned to Lana expectantly, waiting for her response."No."The single word which Lana uttered caused a ripple of shock to go round the hall.The men were stunned and the four dire

Gullible Shareholders

Chapter Two Hundred And Eighty The next day, the shareholders attended the meeting.The entire hall was filled with the seats of the men as well as members of the press.Theses members of the press were standing in every part of the hall, their cameras ready and poised to take and document any important moment.It could be Lana Fernandez being thrown out on her face, or it could be Director Evans assuming position of CEO.He smiled and beamed at them, waving righteously and shaking his head at their persistence.As though he was not severely elated that they were there. As though he was not the one who placed a call to them so they could cover the meeting.He grinned as he leaned further into his seat. The reporters were a smoothly added plan to make Lana's humiliation and defeat more memorable.At the end of the meeting, perhaps he would get a copy and laugh to his heart content anytime he replayed it."What a stupid bitch," he mused as he wiped tears of imaginary life.He quickly
