CHAPTER FIFTY-ONEThat was definitely a test of masculinity and self-control for Stephen as he watched himself struggle with rejecting the temptress’s seductive offer.“Had Evelyn, the right word to say is had,” Stephen said as soon as he got a grip of himself, he gently dragged out Evelyn’s hands from his neck and pushed her aside.“Whew! That was really close.” Stephen sighed heavily as he realized that he had just avoided a huge temptation. He could say that he just passed a test.“What do you mean by had?” Evelyn said looking at Stephen and was filled with the persistent eagerness to finish up what she started.“Like you rightly said Evelyn. I had always wanted you to give me your attention back when we were married. That was a long time ago. That was in the past and not now.” Stephen said still trying to avoid looking at the glaring cleavages that bounced up and down whenever Evelyn made even the slightest movement.“What are you saying Stephen? Don’t want all these?” Evelyn ques

CHAPTER FIFTY-THREE“Welcome Lord Commander. It’s so good to have you back. I am glad that you have finally decided to join us after three years.” The man said, then he bowed profoundly to Stephen. The bodyguards too were not left out as they bowed even deeper than the middle-aged man.“Thank you Gregory. It feels good to be back. You may rise now.” Stephen said to the man with a smile on his face.“Thank you Lord Commander.” The man said as he raised his head and stood erect but the bodyguards kept their heads bent while still holding on to their guns.“How have things been around here? I hope there have not been any lapses?” Stephen asked looking into the building as his smile remained on his lips.“Not at all Lord Commander. Everything has been in order since you left but not as much as when you were around. We indeed were lacking in your prowess and leadership.” Gregory responded bowing slightly as he said the last three words with a smile on his face.“Mm. I see. I am back now an

CHAPTER FIFTY-FIVEStephen ignored her, then he walked towards her and took the bag from her hand as she sighed with relief the moment she handed it over to him willingly.“You still haven’t told me what you have inside that old bag,” Gina said looking at the bag with so much disgust.“You will find out soon, we have to go now,” Stephen said, then he walked out of the room to the first room he had gotten into.“We shall use the chopper to get there faster.”“Sounds better,” Stephen said in response to Gina’s utterance.A few seconds later, Gina pressed a button under the table and the roof of the room gradually slid open and a steel ladder gradually came down till it stopped when the end had touched the floor of the room.Stephen wasted no time, he claimed the ladder and went out of the room through the roof. As he got to the top of the building, he saw a white helicopter waiting in the hangar. The pilot was already inside and the rotor blade was spinning at a very high speed and maki

CHAPTER FIFTY-SEVEN“Can I have your phone please.” He said to Gina who immediately handed over the phone from her pocket to him without any hesitation.“Thank you.” Stephen said quietly, then he pulled out his phone from his pocket and opened the back. He did the same with Gina’s phone before he gradually pulled his Sim chip and put it into Gina’s phone and proceeded to dial a number.As the other line rang, Gina and Grace kept their eyes on him eager to find out what he was really up to as he seemed really anxious about the call.“Hello Lara.” Stephen said hurriedly as soon as Lara spoke to him from the other end of the line.From the countenance on his face, Gina could tell that the call was really important to him, so she decided to wait till he was done before she could say what she had in mind. Her major concern was from the way Stephen’s face brightened up with a smile the moment Lara picked her call.“I didn’t get to thank you for yesterday; you really came through for me. I

CHAPTER FIFTY-NINE“What! You?” Gerald couldn’t believe his eyes as he saw the man in the driver’s seat smiling at him. Taking a step backwards, he looked carefully at the blue Jaguar car, then he scoffed and came forward to Stephen.“When did you start stealing cars? There is no way you can afford this.” Gerald blurted out as his overconfidence exhumed from his body and filled the space in front of him.“Well it doesn’t really matter what you think. I am here to see your girlfriend to give her that which she has always desired. Now could you remove your rickety car from the way so that I can go in?” Stephen said with a smirk on his face. Certainly his words hit Gerald so hard that he fumed in intense rage added to the already existing anger inside of him.“How dare you call my G-classic Mercedes car worth thousands of dollars rickety? You really have some nerves.”“Oh I see. Guess you didn’t take a proper look at my car then or maybe you don’t really know it’s worth.” Stephen retorte
