"Wow! I'm so excited that Stephanie has agreed to get married to Mr Cameron, and the debts owed by the company have also been paid." Mrs Allison told Michael with a smile on her face.It was Friday evening, and Mrs Allison and Michael had just returned from work. Micheal travelled for a business trip on Thursday morning and returned that same evening. "So it means that if we hadn't taken the violent steps we took, she wouldn't have agreed to marry Mr Cameron," Michael said."You're right son. She had made up her mind to leave the rest of her days suffering. I'm happy I handled her the way I did.""And what about that fool, Jakes? Is he still alive?" Michael asked."Yes, he is. But, we'll make sure we get rid of him without giving Stephanie an idea of our plans. Because, as long as he's still alive, she could just change her mind." Mrs Allison said as Michael nodded in response."Now, I'll make sure Stephanie becomes the CEO of 'The Class of Verity,' since she has helped to reinstate t

Stephanie entered the small sitting room and looked around, shaking her head. She had left for some weeks now. She remembered Mr Cameron's wealth and the mansion she had left behind, only to return there. Since she got married to Mr Cameron, he had showered her with so much money, and she had different accounts in her name that contained more than enough money. She did not come back the way she left the house, instead, she was richer this time. Mr Cameron had promised to give her some properties and investments permanently, within the next few months, until he fell sick. She already had two cars during the short time she spent with him, and two drivers. But they were both parked in Mr Cameron's compound.Stephanie was not ready to run after all those wealth now; she was currently concerned about finding Jakes, her husband. She refused to be carried away by Mr Cameron's wealth since she only married him in the first place, to save Jakes. If it meant leaving the wealth to return to Jake

Back at the Allisons' place, Jakes was now very desperate to get out of the dark room. He shook his legs and hands very vigorously with the hope of making the rope used to tie him become slack.He repeatedly tried to loosen the rope on his hands and legs, though it seemed impossible; but he refused to give up. He rested a little bit and then continued. He struggled with the rope for a while, until it became very slack. Then he slowly removed his hands and legs from its grip.Then, he tried to be very alert, if he would hear any sound coming from outside the room. After waiting for what seemed like a long time, he tried shaking the door. He thought of what next to do, then he decided to use his leg in achieving his purpose. He kicked the door very hard; but when he saw that it was yet to be open, he kicked it again, much harder this time. After kicking on the door repeatedly, the door flung open, the eighth time.Jakes was so excited that he was free at last. He tip-toed out of the room

At "The Legends," Jakes looked bothered about what he just heard. He wondered why 'The Class of Verity' was considered for such a contract. He wasn't sure if they had handled a project of that kind before, coupled with the fact that he didn't want his company to have anything to do with them. "They could discover me as the CEO of 'The Legends' in the process." Jakes thought. So he began to think of what to do. He picked up the telephone and dialled a number. "Mr Clemon, please come over to my office very quickly," Jakes said.Clemon was the Contract Manager of "The Legends" and Jakes was sure that he was aware of the contract. Jakes knew that things of such nature passed through Clemon's table before getting to the Chief Operating Officer's desk. "Alright, Sir," Clemon replied.In a few minutes, Jakes heard a knock on his office door."Please, come in," Jakes instructed.The door was pushed open, and Mr Clemon walked in. "Good day Sir.""Good day, Mr Clemon. Please have your seat."

Stephanie resumed at The Jenkin Companies, Inc. the next day. She was happy and excited about the new job. Since she graduated from school, she had not worked in any corporate setting, even though she read Public Administration, and knew the nitty-gritty of company organization and administration.Now, she had been employed as one of the company's administrative staff. It was lunchtime, so she began to tidy up her table to go for lunch when she heard a knock on her door."Please come in," Stephanie said. The door was pushed open and Gregory walked in."Oh, Gregory. Good to see you." Stephanie said."Same here Stephanie. Congratulations on your appointment." "Thank you, Gregory.""So, can we go out for lunch?" Gregory asked."Yes," Stephanie replied. It was lunchtime. She was very new at Jenkin Companies Inc., and she needed someone to intimate her about life in the company. She believed the lunch time was an opportunity to hear from Gregory.The two of them walked out of the company
