Stephen Carrick was seated in his office which was plush space with elegant designs that showcased the political power and ambience he possessed. It looked so bright and it was also adorned with medals and portraits of past political successes. But on this very day, the atmosphere was not so bright.He was not himself as he tries to map out strategies on how to get back at Justin's and Jolce's foundation for discrediting him earlier.In the same office with him was Ryan, one of Justin's all who had been working with Carrick as a political consultant. He had been planted there by Justin and Carrick had no idea when he employed him. He was seated there with a calm composure as he leaned back in his chair, agreeing with whatever Stephen Carrick said.“Well, I think you are right sir.” Ryan said as he nodded in agreement earnestly. “You can not let this slide. You really do have to hit back hard against the foundation for what they did to you. I understand they have been getting support

As the foundation was going well and Carrick's influence was being clamped down on, Jolce's attention was fixated on something else. She had a new business venture she was trying to focus on asides the foundation. The foundation was a lifelong dream but that is not every thing she wanted to do with her life. Since she met Justin and developed a romantic relationship, her life has been revolving around him and she wanted to be able to stand by herself business so it does not look like she relies on his money to survive, especially now that she is truly aware of his financial might and strength.But like every other sector of the business world, there is always a higher competition who would do anything to wipe out the smaller businesses or those just growing.And for Jolce, who uses Justin's company as a shield to get contract for her own business, th Story is not so different. She had been trying to secure a contract but her rival, an astute businessman named Victor Leland, had been

Few days after the presentation, Jolce was restless as the company that put up the contract for the bid was yet to reach out back to her. It felt like an indefinite stretch of time for her as she waited.As she waited, she also thought about the expression on Leland's face as they exchanged ideas in the form of a face off. It made her feel more determined to win that contract. Hopefully, she will be contacted soon.She was still brooding when Justin's message came in. His message came in at the right time, offering her relief from the burden of her thoughts and restless mind.“Hey babe. I trust you are good? I am at our usual spot. Meet me there.” That was the content of the message and Jolce was excited as she read it. She was always eager to see him as he has become busy with work of late. He has always been her confident, who gives her encouragement and support at the right time,, especially during times like this.She got up from where she was and made her way towards the coffee s

Back at the office space Jolce uses for her company, there was joy in the air as her team gathered together for what they think would be the last phase of the negotiations that would Land them the lucrative contract. They were hopeful that the deal would come through and it would be sealed. But as it seems like hopeful feelings we're in the air, there was also whispers of trouble. In a room that Jolce uses as a board room and conference room, some of her team members were busy talking in hush tones and the look on their faces we're that of concern. Jolce noticed it as she walked in. Her heart raced as she approached them carefully, they had no idea she was in the room with them.“Is anything the problem?” She asked. They turned as they heard her voice. They were trying to compose themselves before replying. “Well, there is word going around that Leland is spreading false information about our information.” One of the team members whose name is Ethan said with his brow furrowed. “H

After the negotiations, every one moved away from the room where it held and waited for the final announcement. Jolce was with Justin and her team members, seated comfortably in the lounge area, enjoying some drinks.Jolce was so comfortable because the hotel now belong to Justin. An hotel he bought solely because of her. He did not buy it in her name, so it does not belong to her. But the fact that he acquired it because of her alone made it so special. It was a move that made her belief and trust in Justin more solidified. He has always been there for her and he had shown her times and times over that there is nothing he can not do to support her and her dreams. She was glad she met him. Not just meeting him but she was glad she did not judge him by his looks when she met him unlike how others do to him. Now she is the girlfriend of the wealthiest person on Earth. Although sometimes, she finds that very hard to believe and accept. He does not look like it. He was just a young man wh
