John sighed as he turned slowly.“Grandma, Anna is trying to keep me company. She's not doing anything wrong.” John tried to defend me but his maternal grandmother just scoffed as she brushed it aside.“I don't want you to be stressed. You need your strength right now. Come on John, is she going to keep listening to our conversation? Don't she has some manners?” She barked at Anna.Anna already knew that she wasn't liked and welcomed in John's life by his maternal grandmother let alone, into the family.Anna went afar a little giving them some privacy. In her eyes were tears, clouding her gaze.She tried so hard to suppress them. She as a steong woman and a fighter but she never expected to receive such treatment.“John, that girl is wasting your time. Stop being around her!” His grandmother yelled at him.“Grandma she's not. I invited and brought her here. You don't expect me to just leave her all alone.” John pleaded but his maternal grandmother was not going to have any of it.“Don

John kept dialing Anna’s contact but there was no response.He tried his driver's phone but just before it could connect, he bumped into a lady in waiting.“Ouch.” John exclaimed as drinks were spilled on him.“I'm so sorry sir.” The lady in waiting apologized as she kept bowing, showing her remorse.“It’s fine.” John accepted her apology while he took the napkins she gave to him to clean himself up.Before he could finish, he heard a slap with a hand flying before his eyes.He was shocked as he saw the lady in waiting, holding her cheek in pain with the tray of drinks in her hand thrown to the ground.He turned to see who it was that just slapped her and to his surprise, it was Lady Hampton.“What was that for?” John asked her, totally taken back with his mouth wide open.“How dare you spill juice on him?! Are you blind?? Are you looking for decorations??” She barked at the lady in waiting.John's eyes were dark, shocked and amused at what had just happened before him.Lady Hampton

John stepped out of the car and walked to the bank. The person that was watching him wore a black balaclava to mask his identity and a pair of black gloves as well. He also stepped out when he was close to entering the bank.He brought out a pistol while walking towards John. He lifted his arm slowly while keeping his eyes on John. Just as he was about to pull the trigger, a commotion rose as another man was running out of the bank, almost looking like a thief.He bumped into John and seizing the right opportunity to strike, he pulled the trigger as a loud shot was heard.Everyone scurried to the ground in fear as they began to run. The hitman ran into his car and zoomed off.The driver started the engine as he drove closer to the bank entrance to find John.John survived the shot but another person didn't. He only obtained a scratch from the bullet on his right wrist while the man running out earlier has his brains blown away as his blood splattered on John, who was closer to him.Jo

John was accompanied back home. While in the car before they stepped out, he pleaded with Mr. David not to mention a word to his maternal grandparents especially his grandmother as they would panic.Understanding the task, he nodded. John pulled his suit inner shirt to cover up the dressing. He knew it won't hide it but it was better than none.He walked into the house together with Mr. David.The table was already being set as his maternal grandmother walked towards them.“Where has my precious grandson been? It's late and you haven't had dinner yet.” She said,John smiled as he hugged her.“Good evening Mrs. Raymond.” Mr. Davis greeted her.“Mr. David. Ah, I see you were with my sweet grandson. Where have you people been?” John's maternal grandmother asked as she was worried.“I was showing him around and handling some paperwork with him. Being the new boss comes with a lot of responsibilities so he needs every support and direction he can get from us.” Mr. David replied, not telli

It was Collins.“Hey man,” John started as his voice was down.“John, sorry I couldn't make it to the school.” Collins said, ignoring the greeting.“Sure no problem. I've already handled the issue. What's happening?” John asked.“Yeah, about Anna—” Collins started when John interrupted him, his eyes popping out and his fingers grasping his phone.“What about her?” John asked impatiently.“One of my friend called me and told me that he saw Anna few hours ago at the hospital—” “Hospital? John didn't allow Collins to finish what he was saying before he cut him in again.“Yes. I'm not very close right now and I won't be able to get there so I called if you could check on her. I mean, it's also the best thing to do since she's your girlfriend.” Collins replied.“We'll get there soon. We're about heading to her home now.” John added.“I suggest you go to the hospital. I think she's really there.” Collins said.“Are you sure it was her? I mean, she's supposed to be at home and not some hosp
