2025-06-24 00:49:33Mrs Elena Lawrence and Sarah Lawrence stared at the whole thing as they stood in shock and bewilderment.
“Mom, I can't see, what exactly is going on?” Sarah Lawrence slowly whispered into her mom's ear.
“Sarah, please be quiet, I can't understand what the heck is going on here too.”
“Why is Mr Thomas Wilson helping Abel Scott?”
“Something is not right, why is Mr Jeffrey Jefferson calling him Mr Jackson Alfred instead of Mr Thomas Wilson?”
“Something weird and disturbing is going on here and I really don't like it at all.” Mrs Elena Lawrence said as she stared at Abel Scott and Mr Jackson Alfred.
“Hey Mrs Elena Lawrence and Sarah Lawrence, I'm really sorry for that.”
“What exactly brings you and your daughter out of the mansion today?” Mr Jackson Alfred asked as he approached Mrs Elena Lawrence and Sarah Lawrence.
“We actually came to check up on Mr Zack Lawrence, Sarah's dad, but we ran into issues because of payments with Mr Jerry Jefferson…”
“Okay, how much are we talking about here?”
“How much is Mr Zack's hospital bill?” Mr Jackson Alfred immediately asked, staring at Mrs Elena Lawrence.
“It's actually three million dollars.” Sarah immediately said.
“Okay, consider it paid for in full, since this hospital is now owned by Mr Schmidt the new CEO of the Lotus group, he would be glad to have the bills cleared.”
“How does that sound, Mr Abel Scott? Wouldn't Mr Schmidt be pleased to have Mr Zack's hospital bill clearly?” Mr Jackson Alfred immediately asked Abel Scott.
“Sure it would really be a great idea for Mr…Schmidt to help me, I meant we, clear my father-in-law's hospital bills.”
“I really appreciate that kind gesture from Mr…Schmidt, my regards to him whoever he is.” Abel Scott said sarcastically.
He had actually planned to be the one that would pay off the debt for Mr Zack Lawrence, his father-in-law.
“Oh my God! My Thomas Wilson hasn't Mr Schmidt already done enough?” Mrs Elena Lawrence said as she fell on her knees before Mr Jackson Alfred.
“How on earth can we ever repay Mr Schmidt for his kindness?”
“We are forever grateful to Mr Schmidt for his kindness?”
“Please Mr Thomas Wilson, how do we meet Mr Schmidt we really need to appreciate him in person?” Sarah Lawrence asked, her voice was laced with a mixture of happiness and joy.
“He might as well be standing next to you.” Mr Jackson Alfred slowly muttered to himself.
“What was that?!” Mrs Elena Lawrence asked as she seemed to have heard a bit of what Mr Jackson Alfred had just muttered to himself.
“I said he is…away on a business trip, did you hear otherwise?” Mr Jerry Jefferson immediately asked.
“No, not at all, Mr Thomas Wilson, I just want to deeply say we all appreciate Mr Schmidt's kindness and generosity, even Abel Scott.”
“Please don't mind the fact that he isn't showing you some respect now but he is definitely happy that you and Mr Schmidt had just stepped in to save the day.”
“That reminds me, Mr Thomas Wilson, do you have two names?”
“Why is Mr Jeffrey Jefferson calling you a different name than the one we know you by?” Mrs Elena Lawrence asked, her voice although low was laced with a mix of curiosity and bewilderment.
“It's standard procedure for people like myself, you never get to know us directly.”
“Mr Jerry Jefferson, are the termination letters ready?!” Mr Jackson Alfred asked.
“Yes…yes Mr Jackson Alfred, it's ready!” Mr Jerry Jefferson said as he presented the termination letters to Mr Jackson Alfred.
“Good! Have this sent to those filthy peasants immediately, no one dares to insult Mr Abel Scott, his family members, do you understand me Mr Jerry Jefferson?!”
“Yes sir!” Mr Jerry Jefferson immediately replied.
“The only reason why you are not out with those imbeciles is simply because of your father Lord Jefferson.”
“I want Mr Zack Lawrence immediately discharged from the intensive care unit.”
“I will do exactly as you instructed Mr Jackson Alfred.” With that said, Mr Jerry Jefferson walked out the door, delivering the termination letters to Nurse Sabrina and Nurse Fredrik he raced back inside the hospital complex.
“Hey you two back away from the door!” The security men yelled as they held back Nurse Fredrik and Nurse Sabrina at the door.
“Mrs Sarah Lawrence, we are really sorry!”
“Please help us! We can't afford to lose our job, please!” Nurse Sabrina and Nurse Fredrik immediately pleaded for mercy at the door.
“Excuse me one moment, Mr Abel Scott, could you please come with me?” Mr Jackson Alfred asked.
Walking over to the door, Mr Jackson Alfred immediately opened the door and gazed at Nurse Fredrik and Nurse Sabrina.
“Security, you know what to do, I don't want them anywhere around this building ever again.”
“Their contract with us has just been terminated!
“Mr Abel, please help us!” Nurse Sabrina pleaded with tears in her eyes as she and Nurse Fredrik were thrown outside the gate.
Moments later, Mr Zack Lawrence is being wheeled out of his ward on a wheelchair by some doctors.
“Mr Zack, it's really great to see you again.” Abel Scott said as he approached him.
“The pleasure is all mine, being in the hospital has really fogged up my memory.”
“Elena, where is Sarah?” Mr Zack asked as he scrubbed his eyes.
“She is right over here.” Mrs Elena Lawrence said as she presented Sarah Lawrence to her father.
“It's good to have you back dad!” Sarah Lawrence said as her dad hugged her.
…
Now at the new mansion Abel Scott had gifted his wife under the pretense of Mr Schmidt, the new CEO of the Lotus group, the whole family is seated down and eating.
Mrs Elena Lawrence had made dinner to celebrate Mr Zack Lawrence's return from the hospital.
“Sarah, I'm really sorry for everything that you had to go through in the hands of Lady Natasha.”
“I really wished I was there to help.” Mr Zack Lawrence said as he bowed his head slowly.
“It's really okay dad, I'm still alive that is all that matters.” Sarah Lawrence said.
Just then, Abel Scott's phone rang, interrupting them at the dinner table.
“Abel, you shouldn't be having your phone at the dinner table.” Mrs Elena Lawrence said as she frowned at Abel Scott.
“I'm really sorry, I have to take this call.” Abel Scott said as he stared at his phone.
Walking outside the door, Abel Scott immediately picked up the phone.
“Hello, who is this?!”
“Mr Abel Scott, I think we have finally found a way to make Sarah Lawrence, your wife, see again.”

Abel Scott adjusted his tie, the same tie Sarah had knotted for him. He stepped into the Vibe Corporation lobby clasping his fresh resume tightly.The receptionist's eyes were fixated on her screen, her finger clacking against the keyboard. Abel Scott cleared his throat in an attempt to register his presence. “Abel Scott, I'm here for the janitorial assistant interview,” his voice was soft and low.She looked up, her expression flat as the marble floor. “You again?” she muttered, flipping through a stack of paper.“Fill this paper and wait in that room,” she said, sliding across a form and pointing at the room on the other side of the hall. Abel Scott sat, his pen inscribing words against the paper. His phone buzzed. It was a text from Mr Jackson Alfred. “The acquisition of ABC corporation has been finalized, Vibe corporations and westbridge distributions are now under your control, Lord Abel Scott. Do you have any instructions?” Abel replied quickly. “Ensure I get the janitor jo
CHAPTER TWENTY-THREE
A black sedan rolled up in front of the apartment with two vehicles trailing it.“Good morning Abel” Sarah said, placing her lips on his cheeks.”Good morning mum, Good morning da,” she said, moving quickly to the door. A calm demeanor envelops her like armour. The driver stepped out of the sedan quickly. “Good morning, Madam Sarah.” He said, bowing slightly. She smiled faintly at the bodyguards and staff, masking the commotion inside her head.“Good morning, everyone,” Sarah said, slipping into the back seat. As the car sped past the high-rise buildings of the city to Ashton hills, she stared out the window, squeezing her phone. “I did not just see him, I humiliated him. You should see the shock on his face.” Lisa's words scraped through her mind, causing her to bite her lips. She turned her gaze from the window to the road in front of her. “Divorce him!!” Elena's voice rang through her head. “You are going forward, don't let this deadweight you call husband drag you down wi

Sarah glanced at the phone, her stomach tightened. She hesitated then swiped the phone to answer. “Hello?” Lisa's voice bellowed from the speakers.Sarah put the speaker so she and Abel Scott could hear everything. “Hello,” Sarah responded.A mocking laughter echoed through the speakers. “Well, cousin, I had the most interesting day. Guess who I saw at the interview panel today?” “You saw Abel.” Sarah's throat went dry. Lisa Lawrence scoffed a little harder. “No, I did not just see him, I humiliated him.” she laughed again. “You should have seen the shock on his face when he saw me. He froze like a deer caught in the headlights.” She added.“When I reminded everyone of the loser he is, he practically sank in his seat. Men!, his facial expressions were priceless” Lisa said, giggling really hard. “Lisa why would you do that, have you not caused enough trouble already?” Sarah said, her lips pressed together to stop her voice from shaking. Lisa laughed, “trouble?” she laughed again,
CHAPTER TWENTY-ONE
“Taxi, Taxi” Abel Scott waved. An old blue cab slowed to a stop. The driver rolled the window down“Where are you headed, sir?”“Take me to the Auburn apartments,” He said quietly, sliding into the back of the car. His chest was heavy, the vibe corporation building, the cold receptionist, the mocking laughter in the interview room, the smirk on Lisa’s face as she said “Well, well, look who crawled out”It all clogged his mind like a spider web that cannot be shaken off. He shut the taxi door muffling the noise of the city. For a moment, there was tranquility and a faint smell of gasoline. He leaned his head against the glass, staring blankly at the buildings rushing by. The voice in his head was louder than the horns outside. “Well, well, look who crawled out of the shadows” The words Lisa Lawrence struck deep pain into his heart.“What was Lisa doing on the interview panel?” “The vandels have not even purchased the company yet.”“She has the effrontery to show her face again aft
CHAPTER TWENTY
Abel Scott arrived at the vibe corporation office. The company he is applying to for the janitorial assistant position. As soon as he stepped into the parking lot, a purple Rolls-Royce parked in a spot across from him. He looked at the car without intending to and saw a young couple getting out of the car. The man was wearing a branded suit, looking very handsome and smart. Meanwhile, the lady was dressed in a flamboyant style. Her skin was glowing. As it turned out, the lady was Bianca Lawrence, twin sister to Lisa Lawrence and cousin to Sarah, his wife. And the man Alex vandel, the second son of lord Ammon vandel. Abel Scott's eyes flamed up. “What are they doing here?” He asked himself, confused. He couldn’t figure out why they were here but the best thing he could do was to avoid them because he had a greater plan for them.However, the more he tried to hide from them the more they were likely to see him. Bianca caught sight of him from the corner of her eyes. “Hi, Abel!”
CHAPTER NINETEEN
Elena was shouting in dismay “Abel Scott, that loser! He is such an embarrassment to this family! If you don’t divorce him now, you won’t be able to move forward!”“He is such a deadweight,” she added. “This is the perfect opportunity for us to get back on the good books of your grandma lady Natasha Lawrence” Elena's voice rising a little higher from her irritation at her daughter’s refusal. Sarah said calmly, “I don't need her approval for anything, I never have.” “You…” Elena growled angrily, her teeth digging into her lower lip.“What is so good about that loser? Why can’t you just divorce him? With your eyesight back and your new role as a CEO you can marry Jones.”Sarah Lawrence gave her mother a dead stare. “Jones? As in Jones Williams?"“Yes! Jones Williams! If you marry him, our family can hold our heads high again. Grandma would respect us. We would be welcomed back into the family.” Elena said, gently taking Sarah’s arms. “Think about it dear.” She added, her eyes desper
