“Joyce should do it." Xavier responded.

“What!? That's ridiculous, she doesn't know the first thing about business." Kisha said immediately.

"And if she gets the contract, you make her a director of this company." Xavier added.

“Sure, if Joyce closes the deal, she can become director." Kisha responded with smiles. Joyce giggled and hugged Xavier.

“Okay, what did I miss!?" Greg said, walking in immediately and trying to hug Mira.

“Greg! Let go of me!" Mira shouted, shaking off his hand.

“Mira, look, I'm getting the Berol cooperation company deal and then we'll get married together." Greg said boastfully.

“Not if Joyce gets it first?" Xavier cuts in and smirks.

“Joyce? Well, that's a laugh. What does she know about this?" Greg yelled furiously.

“It's true Mira, you'll just embarrass the family even more than you already have." Mira mocked Joyce. Xavier stood up immediately from his seat and faced Mira Greg and Mira, hitting the table angrily causing a tense atmosphere.

“Leave her alone!" Xavier shouted, facing  Greg.

“Why!?" Greg shouted back, hitting the table too.

“It's because of you we looked down on her. Because she married you!" Greg shouted again, he landed a hot slap on Xavier's cheek. Xavier turned immediately, his eyes now red and furious.

“Take it outside!" Kisha said immediately.

“You have bitten more than you can chew!" Xavier shouted and took Joyce's hand, he left the office. Greg went after him.

“Xavier! Joyce will never get the contract!" Greg shouted, drawing Xavier's attention back.

“Want to bet on it?" Xavier asked furiously.

“Oh, I'd love to." Greg smirked sarcastically.

“If Joyce gets the contract, you'll publicly apologize for the way you treated me all these years," Xavier said, breathing like an angry lion.

“Deal. And when you lose?" Greg asked.

“I'll leave the family forever!." Xavier responded.

“Easiest deal I ever made! And who knows, without you out of the way, perhaps I'll marry Joyce instead." Grag said. 

“Let's go darling." Mira said, dragging Greg by the hand. She makes a mockery face at Xavier. James walked in immediately with a flower, he is one of the most successful businessmen in the city. So Aunt Kisha wanted him for Joyce ever since.

“I see you're still hanging around this family like a disease." James smirked.

“James, what are you doing here?" Xavier asked.

“Aunt Kisha invited me. It seems Joyce needs help closing a deal." He responded.

“And you can help her?" Xavier asked.

“I'm the most successful business man in the city. I hope to close the deal, And then she'll marry me." James responded boastfully. Xavier stared directly at James furiously. Just then Aunt Kisha and Joyce came outside.

“James, oh you brought flowers! Isn't that so thoughtful, Joyce?" Kisha said.

“So thoughtful." Joyce said, faking a smile. She took the flowers.

“Joyce, please let me know where I can be of assistance." James said.

“Joyce needs help closing the Berol cooperation company deal." Kisha cuts in quickly.

“Her? I'm sorry. It's just that deal is already spoken for." James smiled.

“It is?" Xavier asked.

“Yes. My family's very close to the CEO of the Berol cooperation company. He's already promised it to us!" James smirked.

“Interesting!" Xavier responded by clenching his teeth.

“But I'm happy to cut Joyce into a piece of it." James smiled.

“I don't want to be part of your deal, I want all of my own." Joyce said immediately and Xavier held her closely to himself.

“Joyce!" Kisha called angrily.

“No. I think we're all done here." Joyce said and immediately placed the flowers on James' chest roughly. She left.

“Say hello to the CEO of Berol cooperation company for me. Scum!" Xavier smirked and left with Joyce.

“Ugh, let's get a vase for those, James." Kisha said immediately.

“That brat!" James cursed.

….

Joyce sat down on the bed crying immediately when they got home. Xavier went and sat close to her.

“What is it Joyce?" He asked, patting her back.

“Was just thinking, I can't do this." She cried.

“Of course you can." Xavier responded.

“How do you know!?" Joyce asked gazing at him.

“I just do." Xavier said and smiled mischievously.

Next morning.

Joyce got all dressed for the meeting with the CEO of Berol cooperation company for the deal which she was assigned to do as a task. Xavier escorted her to the company.

“What if the CEO just laughs at me?" Joyce said nervously, immediately they got to the company.

“He won't…just be yourself." Xavier smiled at her. Joyce nodded and walked into the company with anxiety.

Xavier brought his phone and called his secretary immediately.

“Linfa, you know what to do." Xavier said and smiled mischievously.

The elevator door opened, Joyce walked straight to where the meeting is holding and met the CEO's secretary instead.

“Your vision is just what the CEO is looking for, we'd like to offer you the contract." The secretary said after some minutes of silence.

“Wait! Just like that!?" Joyce asked with her mouth thrown open, her eyes widened in shock.

“Yes." The secretary responded.

“But doesn't he want to meet me first? Or something?" Joyce asked again.

“No. He trusts my judgment." The lady responded.

“Who Is he, exactly?" Joyce questioned.

“A very wealthy individual! That's all you need to know." The lady smiled.

“Now, if you'll just sign here." The secretary said. She placed a contract in front of Joyce, pointing at the signing spot.

“But ... .but this is for double the initial amount?" Joyce was surprised.

“What can I say? You've impressed the CEO! Do you want the contract or not?" The secretary exclaimed happily.

“Oh! Of course!" Joyce laughed and signed the contract immediately.

Joyce finished the meeting and rushed out of the company happily. She hugged Xavier who had been waiting for her.

“I got the contract!" She shouted happily.

“I know you would." Xavier responded with a smile.

“And it was for double the initial amount!" Joyce said and Xavier Kissedher forehead.

“I can't wait to see the look on your family's faces." He responded.

“Yes! Yes!" Joyce said and hugged him tightly.

    6“Ugh, Enzo, you know I have a really loose tongue and I shot from the hip. Just consider what I said as hot air.” Desmond laughed like a lunatic to cover up. His mother-in-law walked around the car touching it's body and marveling in shock.“Enzo, you know plucking my eyes out right now won't change anything. Since I'm really blind at the moment, please let me keep my eyes as a decoration.” Williams said calmly. Enzo chuckled softly.“Sweetie, let it go…Just leave them since we're family, give them a break.” Lily said calmly.“Alright, I will let you guys off the hook for my wife's sake. No need to pluck your eyes or lick the tires. I just want you guys to give me a sincere apology.” Enzo said sarcastically. They nodded sharply immediately.****A man in a suit came down from the car and walked to them immediately. “Please may I know who Mr Enzo is here?” He asked.“That’s me.” Enzo said.

    5“Here I have solved it for you!” Kayima danced happily around the room. Everyone stared at her stunned.“Lisa, kayima solved it first. You promised $100…fulfill it.” Enzo said sarcastically. Lisa gulped hard. Williams's face tightened in anger. Lisa rolled her eyes in a pathetic manner.“Dear kayima, we didn't include you in the game. It's just a cheap Rubik's cube. It's not a Big deal!” Lisa responded. She turned to Desmond quickly.“Honey, let's go to the car and get the big toy we bought.” She added and left.“That's right! Boy, drop this trash called a toy! Only poor people play with such toys. They can never afford the toys we have” Desmond laughed sarcastically and his son threw the toy right in front of kayima. They left.“Daddy! What type of toys do rich people play with?” kayima asked.“Kayima, don't listen to their nonsense. Rich people also have Rubik's cube and play with it.” Enzo responded and kissed her forehead. She nodded and smiled.“Enzo! If you don't know anything

    4“Then, this medicine is really effective and not fake!” Dr Kim responded.Everyone's eyes widened in shock. They couldn't talk, they couldn't move. They were devastated to stupor. How is that possible!“Now let me Diego keep taking this medicine. Although it can't cure him, it'll at least greatly relieve his symptoms.” Dr Kim advised.“Okay thanks for letting us know.” They chorused in unison. Their response was scanty.“I will take my leave now.” Dr Kim said. He picked up his bag and left.“I will see you out.” Williams said calmly and left with him. Others bent their heads in shame.“Unexpectedly, Enzo's medicine is effective and not fake!” Rita jumped in excitement.“Effective my foot! It's just a dumb luck!” Desmond responded with jealousy.“How the hell can a common cleaner like him know a miracle doctor? Ridiculous!” Williams said entering from the door.“Hey Enzo! Why are you sitting there? There are lots of dishes to do in the kitchen! Do you want Lily to wash the dishes by

    3Dr Kim checked Mr Diego's pulse, everyone gathered around them in the sitting room. Enzo's gaze frequently met with his mother-in-law’s hateful eyes.“Dr Kim, how is my father-in-law's health?” Desmond asked concerned. The doctor dropped Mr Diego's hand and sighs in tiredness.“Dr please don't sigh like that. Is he not going to be fine?” Williams asked.“I’m sorry y'all but there is nothing I can do for Mr Diego's health and illness. You'd better spend more time with him in the future.” Dr Kim responded with bitterness. Mr Diego held his chest coughing loudly, his wife and others held him sadly.“Dr Kim, can you please check this medicine if it can cure his sickness?” Enzo asked, handing him the packaged medicine. Desmond quickly snatched it from him angrily.“Dr Kim, this loser here got this fake herb from a quack Doctor and insisted that my father-in-law take them!” Desmond said with anger and a mixture of mockery. They all chuckled. The doctor took the medicine and started to unw

Come here!” Enzo smiled as his daughter rushed to hug him, Lily held his hands as they walked to the others. Mike already left with the car before they got there.“Father, I came back to celebrate your birthday. Wishing you all the best.” Enzo said. Mr Diego maintained a straight and disgusting face.“Enzo, that's so impressive of you. You're now driving a luxury and expensive car!” Rita said amidst laughter.“And I bet that car is rented! Stop acting like you're that rich!” Lisa said in a sarcastic way.“Well, after laboring for a whole year, you spent your money on renting that car? Ridiculous!” Desmond whined in laughter. Enzo faced downwards, smiling softly.“By the way Enzo, you came here empty handed? You don't even bother to prepare us a valuable gift! After making some money. Indeed you
