Tony arrived at the entrance of his company and was met by a series of reporters who wandered around the company area. They were littered around and waited like one who was on a mission.The very instant they sighted his car, they immediately stood at all corners restricting him from any form of movement. Tony's guards forcibly opened the door and created a slim passage for him. Tony felt swamped by the reporters and frustrated as they bombarded him with questions. "Mr . Tony Ed.uardo, what do you have to say concerning Mr Martin's accusations concerning you?" the reporters questioned, their voices ringing like a bell as Tony grappled forcefully to exit their mist."Is Mr Martin Fernando telling the truth concerning the fact that you're uneducated and fit to oversee the affairs of the company?" They continued thundering questions at him and their microphones brought forward as they waited for any form of explanation from him. Tony sighed, he knew he couldn't be able to escape their que
The buzzing sound of Tony's phone halted his footsteps as he strode to his car. "Hey man, what's up?" Tony asked the very instant he picked up the call, his voice soft but firm."Where are you, Tony?" Collins questioned immediately, his tone coated with urgency and tenacity as he spoke."I just finished the interview, What's going on man?" Tony questioned in alert, he noticed the persistence that was laced with Collins' tone and was curious about what was going on, his whole body was edgy as he waited for an answer."You need to come home Tony, there's something you need to see," Collins uttered in assurance and determination. He was able to find a trace and link between the affected families and he needed Tony to see for himself."I need to go to the company, just tell me over the phone," Tony stated tiredness, he needed to sign some company papers and business contracts."This is urgent. It's related to your mum," Collins muttered in firmness and resolution, his tone curved in surene
Tony and Collins were both quiet as they drove home. They were thinking about why Henry was trying so hard to take over the company. Tony was also worried about who the spy might be and how they were connected to him.Tony's phone made a sound, letting him know his mother was calling. "Hello Mother, how are you?" Tony asked as he waited for her response. Tony's mother was frail and her voice was barely audible as she uttered. "Tony you need to come now, I can't breathe," she said, her voice low and coarse.Tony's body instantly stiffened and his heart pounded profusely, his eyes flared up in worry as he tried to comprehend the situation.

"Call the doctor immediately and notify him I'm bringing my mother now and it's very urgent," Tony threw a
Mariam observed Hannah leaving the restroom, a sense of unease filling her. Over time, she had noticed Hannah's suspicious behavior—the secretive phone calls, the cautious demeanor around others. Mariam was convinced that Hannah was involved in something dangerous, and it was clear that whatever it was could have serious consequences.Mariam, lost in thought about how to approach her suspicions, walked back to her office. She noticed Tony returning to the company, his face contorted with anger and his hands clenched into fists. Seeing his distress, Mariam felt a brief moment of comfort, assuming his demeanor was related to his mother's health. Driven by curiosity and concern, she followed Tony and entered his office right after him."Hi, Tony," Mariam said softly, her voice gentle and empathetic. "I couldn't help but notice that you seem troubled and bothered. Is something wrong?" She stepped closer and took a seat across from him, her eyes filled with sympathy and her tone laced with
Seated in the living room,all Mrs Lugard and her daughter Cecilia could think of was the next possible action to save their company. "I think I should pay Henry Storm a visit and see if we could negotiate a possible deal," Mrs Lugard muttered in firmness as she concluded that was her possible solution,her eyes were calculative as she resolved to critical thinking. "Mother that will be the best thing to do,I'm sure Henry Storm will be happy to negotiate with us given the fact that he's not on good terms with Tony and they're rivals," Cecilia responded in determination and tenacity as she was unwilling to yield to defeat. Ever since the news of Tony being the CEO and heir to the Storms inheritance things haven't been looking good for Mrs Lugard and her company was on the edge of bankruptcy. Investors have already pulled out and what was left of the company was crumbs and few staff who were still working on unpaid salaries. Mrs Lugard had thoughts hard about her predicament and her
Mariam's heart pounded profusely because of the new information she had just unveiled,her mood swings from the nerve of Hannah and the consequences of her actions. Her hands tightened on the wheel steering as the anger within her threatened to escalate. As she sped down the road,she concluded to drive down to Tony's place to reveal the true personality of Hannah. She got to the house and raced her legs up the front porch to the living room where she met Collins who was seated on the sofa and engrossed in his system. "Where is Tony?" She asked sharply,her tone filled with persistence as she raced her eyes from Collins to down the hallway hoping to see Tony. "I guess he's still at the company," Collins stated in firmness,his eyes lingered to that of Mariam in confusion as he tried to assess what the problem was and the reason for her urgency. "You looked hastened and upset over something, what's it?" Collins questioned,his eyes brimming with concern,he sat upright and gazed intensely
The Hearty laughter and boisterous cheer from the Lugard's living room woke Tony Eduardo out of a restless slumber. As he dragged himself from his bed, the events of the previous day swirled through his mind. He had labored tirelessly in his menial job, only to earn barely enough to keep himself and his ailing grandmother afloat. He had always depended on his wife Helen's support which made her family regard him as weak and inadequate. Helen often belittled him, and he felt trapped in the marriage. While Helen had never sought a divorce, Tony wondered if she was merely keeping him around out of pity or convenience. He felt like a burden, a failure, and a disappointment, trapped in the Lugard mansion with no clear path to independence.As the realization hit him, Tony jolted up from his bed, "Oh my gosh, how could I forget? It's our second anniversary," He exclaimed to himself. Suddenly, it all made sense, the noise from the living room must have been a surprise anniversary party that
The Lugards were dumbfounded by Tony's refusal to go along with their plan. They had assumed that he would jump at the opportunity to get a payout since Lady Lugard was more than willing to give him enough money for both his grandmother's medical bill and to start over with a new life, leaving Helen behind. But his unexpected response had thrown them off. They suspected that he was merely putting on an act and that he would eventually agree to the divorce. Helen, on the other hand, was indifferent to what Tony would decide. If he chose to. leave, she could finally be free of his lower social status and find someone more fitting of her position. She was confident that there were plenty of eligible suitors who would be more than happy to court her. The moment Tony left the mansion, he made his way to the hospital. His grandmother's doctor was his only hope, and he needed a doctor to give him more time to raise the funds needed for her treatment. When he got to the doctor's office, he w
