All Chapters of FATED CHASE: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

SARAHI kept looking at Aunt Olivia but she didn’t pay attention to me. She was engrossed in asking Caleb if he feels better.Caleb noticed that I wasn’t comfortable at that point and anytime he glanced at me, I felt angry for postponing my schedule for the day. He had Laura who is capable of taking care of him.Finally, Aunt Olivia told Caleb that she has to leave because she has an urgent meeting to attend. She promised to see him soon but definitely without me because I will avoid him like a plague. “Bye ma, thank you for stopping by to check on us.” Laura uttered respectfully. It was all a show; she was known to be rude and disrespectful.I bid Silas bye and led the way out.A week and some days ran by and I refused to place a call to him or give Aunt Oliva attention whenever she talked about him. I hate to admit but avoiding him makes me unhappy but it's best for the both of us.With a moody face, I headed to my car, hoping that getting to the office will make me forget him. I s

Caleb insisted that he was going to wait in my office till the meeting was over. Quickly, I went to the board room.The board members were all seated. While some frowned, otherwise gave a sober look. It was an impromptu meeting and to be honest I wondered what the urgency was about.We exchanged pleasantries and I took my seat.“Sarah, what is all this?” A middle-aged woman present pointed at me.“I don’t understand.” I said truthfully.“Ma’am, Sarah Atelier have been sued to court for supplying substandard and fake wears to our customers.” My secretary explained.“What?!” I couldn’t help but exclaim. I check all my designs and fabrics myself before sending them out for final usage. I go as far to ensure that everything I produce are unique. “Who could have sued us to court without vetting such false accusation?” I didn’t know when the words slipped off my mouth.“Alene Wretz is behind it. He is the owner of the brand called Wretz Hub. His designs and clothes are recognized internati

Early the next morning, I woke up early to prepare breakfast for Nelly. When I was ready to leave the house, he was still asleep so I dropped a note under his pillow apologizing and also stating that I had to be at the office early. I told his nanny to notify him that I was the one that made his breakfast.As I drove out of the house, I felt like seeing Caleb, to appreciate him for all he has done. To confirm if he was at the office, I placed a call to him.“Hi, Caleb. are you at your office?” I asked the moment he answered.“Not yet. I’ll let you know when I arrive at the office.” He replied briefly.He sounded busy so I decided to send him an SMS. “Thank you so much, Caleb. Josh told me how you sorted everything out.” I read the message aloud before sending it.Almost immediately, I got a reply. “So lovely but it will be more pleasant if you appreciate me in person, dear Sarah.”I heaved; he insisted that my appreciation should be in person but at least I had appreciated him. I d

I stood rooted to the spot but Nelly voice drew my attention. “Mom, who is at the door?” He asked and it made me return inside quickly. He kept asking who was at the door but I told him it was nothing to worry about. I had to divert the discussion. “How was school today?” I asked, touching his cheeks. “It was fine. I always enjoy Elena’s company.” He replied happily. It was a good thing that Elena and Nelly were good friends. I hope as they grow older no strings will be attached. Should I be worried that he is acquainted with his cousin? “That’s good. When the school goes on holiday, I think we would go on a vacation.” I said, smiling. “That’s great.” He screamed for joy. “Can Elena come along?” I widened my eyes before replying. “I can’t answer that. It depends on Elena and her parent.” “Uncle Caleb can come along if that will convince her parent…” He suggested politely. “We’ll discuss further when the time comes.” I chipped in quickly. I could see the joy on his face b

SARAHI just received an email stating that I will be part of those in a closed-door meeting with Alene Wretz in two hours’ time. I replied, stating that I will be present alongside Becky.I quickly finished up the piled task on my table and asked Becky to get ready immediately.I patted my face, picked my bag and headed downstairs. Becky was behind me. There I met a man fuming with anger and throwing cold words at my security guards. I had just thirty minutes to be at Alene’s company but I couldn’t help but speak to the angry man.“Hello sir, please what is the problem? Who are you?” I asked politely.“And you are?” He turned to me.“Sarah Tonks,” I replied.“My name doesn’t matter. You look beautiful so because of that, I will speak to you sweetly.” He said with a slight smile and it irritated me.“It is no longer hidden that Sarah Atelier will fold up soon or even get banned from operating in this town. However, my mom is one of your investors. She still believes that your brand wi
