The couple were running after the man and they looked like they were pleading but the man kept refusing their pleas.

Prince waited for them to leave the premises before he got down and went into the hotel with George.

Meanwhile, Kyle and Lara drove out of the hotel and were unaware of their destination.

Kyle had no idea where to go and after thinking about it, he decided to take Lara to the beach.

Perhaps they needed some serenity to calm themselves down.

All they've been getting since after their engagement party was rejections. Lara, on the other hand, was getting weak.

Being a pregnant woman, she was losing appetite for food which was affecting her outlook, including the baby in her womb.

Whenever they're seen in public, people keep pointing in their direction like they are carrying some kind of virus.

A while later, they got to the place and Kyle pulled over.

He alighted from the car and without saying anything, he began to walk away while Lara followed behind.

“Kyle?" She called

    After a moment of silence, Prince gave a response to George's question.“I've thought about it but what do you want me to do? It's going to be hard for me to find real love especially after I reveal my identity.”"I had to work as a waiter in my own restaurant just to find love. And when Lara came by, I thought that my search was over but I was wrong.”"Lara is just like every other girl and who knows what the next person I meet would be like.”"You have to give it a trial. Maybe you should search for love again before revealing your identity." George suggested and got a questioning look from Prince.“I think it's a good suggestion. You see, I haven't really thought of that." “Yeah, I'll advise you to get a job at a different restaurant. You must go to a place where people frequent. I'm sure you'll find someone who would love you as a waiter.”"But you must never be a live-in son-in-law again. You can just rent a simple apartment to show her if she's really interested.”"Moreover, yo

    George had to leave the brothers alone the previous night.He knew that anytime Austin comes to Prince's house, it was always about money. At the end, Prince would end up giving in to his excessive demands.He was being paid a monthly allowance for doing nothing. And as if that's not enough, he'd spend the money lavishly and come demanding for more.“I told him off. He won't be getting anything from me apart from the monthly allowance he gets.”"We both know that he won't be able to do anything because he'd end up cutting off his means of livelihood.”“It's not like I did something wrong which he's threatening to reveal. I'm just not ready to show myself to the world and he's taking advantage of it.”George nodded in satisfaction. Just what he wanted to hear."It's good to hear that you're taking charge of the situation. Austin won't be able to blackmail you again. He just has to make do with whatever is given to him.”"Yeah, that's right.”Prince was soon done with his breakfast and

    She wanted to run back to her car but it was too late. And at that time, she could not cover her face with the little cloth on her hands.“Look, It's Lara Norman. The movie star everyone is talking about. Come on, bring out your phone, let's make a video of her.”"Yes, make sure you capture her face.” As the onlookers continued to converse amongst themselves, Lara saw a few bring out their phones to make videos of her. However, she didn't want that and quickly covered her face but that didn't stop the people.She could not also tell them to stop because they wouldn't listen to her.When she saw that they would not stop making videos of her, she hurried away and met with Kyle who was still waiting for his phone.Fortunately for Lara, the people did not follow her and the mobile phone department had just a few people who were trying to buy a new phone.At first, Kyle could not recognize Lara because her face was covered. But he quickly recognized her when he saw Derrick behind her.“Wh

    Kyle would not go completely broke even though his career has been put to a stop. However, he won't be able to afford the lifestyle that he was already used to.His standard of living went very high as he was one of the best actors. But since he won't be earning from movie projects any longer, he has to lower his standard.While he was earning big as an actor, he acquired a few commercial spaces where he rented out to small business owners.The occupants of the commercial space pays him only a few thousand dollars monthly and he'd have no choice but to survive on the rents which would be barely enough for the standard he had set for himself.In the past, he spent hundreds of thousands dollars a month but now, he has to make do with a few thousand dollars which would be difficult to adjust to.Kyle got dressed up and got into the car. “Drive me to the mall." He said to his driver who obeyed immediately.The man drove off immediately and on the way, he stared at Kyle from the mirror and

    Kyle got to the dining table and drank his hangover soup before having his breakfast.After breakfast, a thought came to his mind and he decided to call his manager. Maybe the man must have spoken with some of the production houses.It had really been a while since they spoke to each other. The man, on the other hand, had not even called to find out how things were going with Kyle and Lara.Swiftly, he took his phone and put a call across to Mr Chamberlain.The phone rang a few times before the man finally answered the call.“Hello Mr. Chamberlain. It's been a while since we spoke to each other. Tell me, have you been able to speak with any producer on our behalf." “Kyle, uh… No producer has called me for your sake and when I tried to bring your name up before them, they seemed not to be interested in hearing anything about you." “I'm sorry about that." The man replied and there was silence between before Kyle thought about something and inquired.“Wait, does it mean that you've bee

    “I want more money and I need it to always come directly from you.” Austin quickly stated without mincing words.He could see that Prince had refused to listen to him. It meant that he had to keep doing things his way.Austin just has to keep blackmailing him.“You are dumber than I thought. Look, Austin. You better go and work hard if you want to earn some money. I'm not giving you any more money.” Prince gave him one last cold glare before walking away."When you're done watching the TV, you can find your way out of my house.” Prince added as he began to ascend the stairs without looking back.He knew that Austin was crazy but not crazy enough to bite the hands that fed him.If Austin decides to go to the media and ask for some money in exchange for information, he won't be getting so much from them. Unlike what he gains from Prince.Prince was just indulging his excesses because of the blood relationship they have.He was earlier afraid that Austin might reveal his identity to ever

    “Go and prepare what I asked of you." Austin yelled at him, ignoring his brother's words. However, Philip refused to budge.Prince was his Boss and it's only his boss's order that he must obey.It's not Austin that pays his salaries, it was Prince.George, who had been silently watching the drama, only smiled to himself but continued eating.Prince also continued his meals, ignoring his brother who was fuming.When Austin could not get things done his way, he turned around and started towards the sitting room.“I'm waiting for you, dear brother. When you're done with your dinner, you come over here. We need to discuss." Austin said to his brother who ignored him.Prince only tried his best to be calm and continued his meals. Austin was getting on his nerves but what could he do.His brother was taking advantage of him and exploiting him.When Prince and George were done eating, they both left the dinning and made it to the sitting room, still ignoring Austin.George said to Prince. “I

    “Consider it done." Zane replied to Prince and stood up immediately. He took out his wallet and paid for their coffee before shaking hands with Prince and George. "I'll be in touch.”With that, he began to walk away, leaving them behind.From where they sat, they quietly watched as Zane got into his car and drove away.Turning to George, Prince said to him. “I think I've had enough for today. I'm so famished and want to go home.”"If you're so hungry, then let's look for a good restaurant and have dinner." George suggested but Prince refused. He stood up from the chair before saying to his friend.“I want a home cooked meal. Come on, let's go home. And you're welcome to join me." Without another word, Prince began to walk away while George hurriedly followed him.They got to the car and Prince put a call across to Philip, his chef. He wanted Philip to prepare something nice for dinner.After almost an hour's drive, they finally got to his estate.When they got to the gate of his est

    “Boss, when is it going to be over?" George glared at him for a while before inquiring.“Soon." Prince muttered, still smiling at his friend. They went to the place to have some drinks but bumped into Kyle and someone else.Prince did not know who the other person was but guessed that he was a friend to Kyle.The latter was probably frustrated and had gone there to drink himself to stupor.“It's surely going to be over, George. We just need you to exercise a little patience." Prince added.He curled his lips into a sneer while his thoughts were on Kyle.He looked really frustrated and that was giving him a sense of fulfillment. Kyle was getting what he deserved.By the time he learns who was behind his downfall, he'd trade with caution if he ever gets to the top again.He won't ever go close to someone else's wife or dared convert her into his.Prince believed that Kyle and Lara would not end up together after everything. In fact, that was the original reason he was dealing with their
