Chapter 011Esther's POV “Good morning, ma'am, a man is here to see you, he looks like a CEO from another company, ” she said.What! a man? I wasn't expecting a visitor. Well, I'm the CEO now. I'll expect new people in my life regardless of my position. “Well, let him in, please. Oh, you haven't told me your name,” I asked as I leaned back comfortably. “I'm Jennifer, ma'am, your secretary,” she replied. I nodded as she made her way out. After a few minutes, a young man entered he dressed in a gray suit, holding a file in his hand. His blue eyes locked up with mine as I felt my soul trembling. He turned and slammed the door behind him gently as he walked towards me and stood. My mouth went dry as I swallowed hard, trying to quench the thirst in me. “Good afternoon, Ms…..?” he said as he stretched his hand, demanding a handshake, his blue eyes still piercing through my soul. I sat properly before throwing my hand for a handshake. “Esther, and are you?” I asked curiously, trying

Chapter 013 Esther's POV “Mom, we are in trouble, big trouble,” I said in my hoarse voice as tears streamed down my face. “Come baby, tell me what is wrong,” she said as moisture began to gather in her eyes. She came and gathered me in her arms. “Let's sit down first,” Mom said as we went and sat on the couch in the living room. I wiped off my tears and placed my briefcase on my lap, then brought out the loan file without a word. I handed them over to mom, who was seated beside me. She quietly collected the file and read through it. “Oh my God, fifty million!” she shouted as her hand went to cover her mouth in shock. Her tears dripped on the papers. One of us must be strong enough to console another. I placed a hand on her shoulder, trying to console her as we all sobbed. “Your father's name and signature are on the papers,” she whispered as she leaned her head on my chest. “It's OK mom, we need to figure something out,” I said softly. “I don't think our co

Chapter 015John's POV I branched to a bar and drank some coffee before making my way to the office. “shit,” I murmured as I gritted my teeth. I never expected Esther would choose to return the money in 3 weeks. I took the elevator as I stormed into my office angry and depressed. Does that mean I have lost Esther? Noo, I can't imagine life without her. This can't happen. So stupid of me! I could have needed my money in 5 or 7 days instead of 3 weeks. I need to do something, but I have to wait and see if she can really return the money within the due time. I reclined effortlessly in my sleek leather chair, fingertips lightly steepled, exuding calm authority as I surveyed the bustling cityscape through the floor-to-ceiling windows. I turned my chair towards my table. My eyes suddenly pinned a copy of the offer I made to Esther as a wave of frustration ran through my veins. I picked it out by reading through it again. I immediately hid the paper under my table when I heard som

Chapter 017Esther's POV I woke up as early as 4 in the morning and did a little bit of research on the CEO who wanted to help us with forty million dollars. I found out that aside from being a CEO, he owns luxurious hotels and villas in America, the UK and England. I wonder why such a man with so much money would want something in return when he could just give us the complete fifty million dollars without even feeling anything. Well, maybe he needed what money couldn't buy from us. I just hoped it was something that wouldn't be beyond our power. My stomach flipped just thinking I would have to meet him in person. After a few minutes of research, I went back to bed, to take a nap before the sun rose, but the sleep wouldn't come. I kept rolling back and forth in bed. The curiosity of meeting such a successful person kept playing in my mind. I quickly opened my eyes when I heard my alarm ring. It was already 7:30 in the morning. It felt like I was lying there for 30 hours. I qui

Chapter 019Michael's POV Fifty million dollars? Is she seriously asking me for fifty million dollars? What has gotten into her? Does she think she could get something from me after what her daughter did to me? “Are you alright, Mr Michael?” Mr Ethan, my manager, interrupted my train of thought, bringing me back to life. “ahh, yeah, yeah it's just….. Yeah, I'm fine,” I replied. “I noticed that for the past few minutes you weren't concentrating. Well the meeting is over sir, did you have anything to say?” he asked. “ohh…. No, you should all stick to what we have discussed earlier and make corrections where necessary,” I stood up before walking to my office. I stormed into my office and went and sank in my chair. I raked my hands through my dark hair, something weird had been going on with my gut since I divorced Esther. It was gnarling. I caught her cheating on me and I forced a divorce, and that was all I wanted. So why does it bother me so much? It was not that I didn't love
