After he left the marriage registrar's office, he went straight to the office since he had a meeting at 11 am to attend.
When he got to the office, all his employees were congratulating him on his marriage.
He just knotted his head and walked to his private elevator.
Pressed his office floor and within a few minutes he was on his office floor.
And the elevator opened.
He stepped out of the elevator, walked straight to his office and sat down on his chair.
He took out the marriage certificate which was given by the marriage registrar and looked at it again.
He later put it inside my drawer.
He arranged himself and opened his laptop to start working.
When his office door was pushed open,
When someone gets married, he and his wife go for a honeymoon, but someone here decides to come back to the office.
This voice can only belong to my stepmother's son.
Are you angry and jealous that I didn't give you space to steal some of the company money or is it the fact that I am married again?
While no girl wants to get married to you?
How dare you talk to me like that?
That means I am not lying, you are jealous of me.
What is there in you that I would be jealous of?
Heh!
Is it the fact that your first wife left you or is it the fact that your second wife walked like a ***** in a club?
At least they agreed to get married to me, but all those girls you sleep with try proposing to one?
Then you will know that no girl will want a man like you who can't boost of having 20M$ in his bank account.
Look at me.
I am a billionaire.
I make the rules and people like you follow the rules.
So if you don't have anything to say, you can get out of my office and yes!
Next time you come to my office to talk to me, make sure we are both at the same length in everything, money, and marriage status before you stand beside me.
Laurel you?
I said get out!
Allen left and closed the door with a lot of force.
He will always be a kid to me.
A few minutes after he left my office, there was a knock on my door.
"Come in!"
Greetings sir, everyone is already in the meeting room waiting for you.
I will be there in a bit.
I walked to the meeting room and everyone was there.
Just as my secretary said.
I walked in and sat down on my chair.
Yesterday, I was able to acquire one more company.
What I want is for the company to start functioning by the beginning of next month.
Let nothing happen to the opening of the company.
Since we have acquired the company, we need to change the company's strategy. If not, the company will remain in one position.
Yes sir.
Sir, this is a work about management.
It is good, but not too good.
It is a newly acquired company, so I need the management team to always do their best.
Yes, sir. We are working on it.
For now, that is what we came up with to create awareness among people about the existence of the company. The manager said.
I want 100% success.
Let your team take it very seriously.
I don't want any foul play.
Yes, sir.
Any mistake you and your team make, you will all be fired.
The whole meeting was in total shock and fear could be seen on their faces.
Next on the agenda.
Sir, we are still in the first position in the market survey with our products.
Good, let it remain that way.
I don't want us to go down from the first position.
Yes sir.
Tell the financial manager to add all workers working in the production domain $5000 each to their salary for this month for their good work and to all the other employees $2000.
Is that clear?
Yes, boss. Smiles could be seen on their faces.
Good if there is nothing else to discuss, I will be leaving the company.
In case of anything, Stephanie, call me. Ok, sir.
When I left the office it was already 1 pm.
I walked to my car and entered, and the chauffeur drove to the mansion.
When we got to the mansion, the gateman opened the gate for us to enter.
The chauffeur packed the car and I went out and walked inside the mansion.
I was greeted by the presence of my dad and his wife at the parlor.
I walked to my dad and greeted him.
Where is your wife?
Dad, told me she would be going to her place to get some of her stuff before coming.
Why didn't you drop her off?
You know she is pregnant, and you are stressing her out?
Dad, I offered to drop her at her place.
She refused, saying she could go alone. Are you sure you are telling the truth?
Yes Dad, when she comes you can ask if you want.
I will make sure I do that.
So, how was the meeting with the board of directors?
Dad, it went well, and I told them about yesterday's success, and they were very happy.
Also, this month we are still at the top of the market survey list.
No company has been able to put us down.
I'm so proud of you, son, and now you are about to give me a grandchild.
Thanks, Dad, let me go freshen up.
I am sure she will be here any moment from now.
Alright, son.
Don't tell me you, let Laurel get married to that *****?
How could you let that ***** come into our lives?
My son is a grown-up man, and he can make decisions for himself.
Did you just say grown-up man, have you forgotten what happened to him 3 years ago when his first wife left him?
That happened 3 years ago and, as you can see, he is perfectly fine, making his decision.
The only thing we can do is to support his decision and that is what I am doing as his father.
It would be advisable for you to do the same.
I don't want you to bring up this matter again or the name of his ex-wife here again.
Mr. Goldman said and left the parlor for his room.
If it was my son who did what your son did, you would have told me my son is spoiling your family name.
Now that it is your son here, you are supporting him.
Continue supporting. Don't blame me when your nemesis catches up with you.
My stepmother said to no one in particular than herself, since there was no one with her in the parlor.
After I took my bath and changed into something different, I fell on the bed since I was very tired and fell asleep.
I got up to the sound of a knock on my door and when I checked the time, it was 7 pm.
I can't believe I slept for that long.
I walked to the door and opened it, and it was one of the maids.
Greetings sir, dinner is ready and your dad and everyone is waiting for you downstairs.
Alright, I will be there.
Have you seen my wife?
No sir, no one has come to the mansion. You can go!
Okay, sir,
After I spend some time in my room arranging myself, I walk out of the room and walk downstairs.
You are now the president who will keep everyone waiting for him, including your father.
Nina would shut up and let the boy come sit down.
Dad, I am sorry I kept you waiting.
I was asleep. It is okay, son, there is no need to explain yourself.
I was the one who sent one of the maids to come wake you up.
Thanks, Dad.
It is 7:30 pm and your wife is still not here. Have you tried calling her?
I don't even have her number.
What will I call her?
I said to myself.
Yes, Dad, I called her before coming downstairs, and she told me she would be here any moment from now.
Alright, then let's eat.
So are you planning on acquiring another company?
No Dad, for now, I just want to work for this new company because it looks like I have a lot of work to do there.
Alright son, I support you.
Allen, how is your business?
Dad, my business is doing well.
Are you sure about it? I asked him.
Laurel, what are you trying to imply?
Dad, I heard from somewhere that his company is going bankrupt.
"What! Yes, Dad, you can ask him.
He is also here.
Is it true, Allen?
Mmmhh.
No, Dad, I invested some of the money in another business and very soon I will get triple the money and I will put it back inside the business.
So is it true?
Tell me which business did you invest in?
Dad, it is an investment company where you invest your money and, in a particular period, you earn triple the money.
Have you ever thought that people might be fake, and just want to scam your money, and you have given them the opportunity?
They are not scammers.
I did a background check on the company before working with them.
You both stop the noise.
Allen, how long will the investment be?
Dad is 3 months old and I will receive all my money.
Alright, then when you get the money put it back inside the company account.
If not, I won't help you out this time around.
Dad, don't worry, I won't disappoint you with that promise.
Is Alright.
Sir, please, there is a woman outside. She said her name is Tiara, and she is Mr. Laurel's wife.
Bring her inside.
Alright, sir,
After a few minutes, the maid came back with my wife Valise and my wife following behind her.
She looks more beautiful today than the day she came here and caused a scene.
I can see my stepbrother's eyes on her.
I felt like removing his eyes, so he wouldn't look at her like that again.
I must say she is very beautiful to the point where every guy gets mesmerized by her beauty.
Greetings sir, I heard her greet my dad. Greetings dear.
How are you doing?
Am I great Sir and you?
Am good, my dear.
Let's stop with the formalities.
Since you are married to one of my sons, you can call me dad, just like my sons.
You are now my daughter.
Thanks, Dad.
Greetings Mam, she greeted my stepmom and she ignored her.
I liked what she did because she didn't feel offended.
She walked close to me.
I am sorry babe, for coming late.
The traffic was very serious.
That is why I am late.
She said and hugged me and I must say she sure has talent.
After she released me from her embarrassment, she put her hand on my face and said,
Bab, I hope you are not angry with me as she looks at me right inside my eyes.
My heart started to beat.
If just her touch can make me feel this way, then what will happen if she is necked in front of me?
I just smiled and said No, I am not angry at you.
Thanks, baby,
I don't know if I am invisible, or if it is that you deliberately didn't want to greet me. My stepbrother said and that was when we both stopped staring.
She turned to him.
I am sorry for not greeting you.
In truth, I never saw you here.
I must say she is not as easy as I thought she was.
How can she say she didn't see Allen when his seat was in mine?
Really, you didn't see me, but you were able to see your husband, right?
Yeah, because I wanted to make sure I apologized to him first before anything. That's why I could only see him.
Anyway, I know there are not enough reasons for my actions, and I am sorry.
By the way, I am Tiara, wife of Laurel, she said and sent her hand for a handshake and, are you? She asked.
I am Allen Laurel's brother.
My stepbrother, I corrected him, and he looked at me angrily while still holding my wife's hand.
Ohhh!
That means you are my stepbrother_ in _law, she said and removed her hand from his.
Yes, my dear! Dad said,
Sit down and join us for dinner.
Thanks, Dad, she said and sat beside me as the maid served her food.
Throughout the whole period, there was total silence at the table, which was really strange.
We all ate all our food quietly and when we were done we left the table for the sitting room.
Dear, how are you and the baby?
Dad, we are both fine. So, when will you start your check-up?
Dad by next week.
You know, when Laurel's mother was pregnant with him, that was my best moment, because I would follow her to the hospital for the check-up, and the first day I felt my son's heart beating in her mother's stomach.
That was an emotional moment for me.
I was very happy.
When my dad said that, I could just imagine, and I could not wait, even though I don't love the mother, I will love my baby.
Don't worry dad, when your grandchild starts kicking I will let you know.
The fact that he is your grandchild doesn't mean you can't feel it too.
You are right, my dear, and I can't wait for that day. I am sure he will be handsome like my son.
No dad, he will be handsome like a grandfather and not a father.
Hahhahah.
I must confess, dear, you are very funny. I am very happy I could make you laugh Dad.
I can't believe this girl told my dad she wanted our baby to look like my dad in front of me and wanted to fear.
How could she? She is indirectly telling me that my father is more handsome than me.
But everyone tells me I am the younger version of my dad and the only difference is that I got my eyes from my mother.
If that is true, that means there will be no difference whether the baby looks like my dad or me.
She and my dad have been discussing it ever since we came to the sitting room.
She had forgotten she was married to me and not my dad.
Whenever she laughs, it feels like all my problems are over, and I am safe with her beside me.
Dad? Yes, dear?
You know your son is a busy person, and he won't be able to go with me to the hospital for my check-up, so I wanted to ask if you could escort me to the hospital, especially next week.
When she asked that question I could see the angry face of my stepmother, it was full proof that my anger was small.
Don't worry if my brother is absent. I can escort you since my dad is always busy too.
Allen said, and it was like I should just take my gun and arrange his brain for him, so he could come back to his senses.
No one is going anywhere with my wife. All her check-ups I will be attending with her and that final.
I said, and everyone turned and looked at me.
Seriously, Laurel, you will follow me for all my checkups.
I don't like repeating myself.
Dad, you are my witness.
Your son has promised to come with me for all my checkups.
Yes dear I am with you on that.
Why do I feel like I have been used by this girl and my dad?
Dad, I feel sleepy.
I will go to my room first!
Laurel, take your wife to your room. Alright, Dad, good night and see you tomorrow.
Good night dear and sleep well.
Why don't you just follow her to your son's room since you forgot you had a wife ever since she set foot in this mansion?
I could hear my father's wife naking again.
Allen, why don't you go to your room and rest?
Tomorrow is another day?
My dad said to my stepbrother.
When we got to my room, I opened the door and we both entered inside.
Wow, your room is very beautiful.
She said, but I didn't reply to her.
Your dad is so welcoming. She said
But still, I didn't say anything.
I will sleep on the long couch and you can have the bed.
The bed's too big for me alone to sleep on. You can come and join me on the bed. Don't worry, I won't touch you.
If you are afraid, we can use the pillows to separate the bed.
She said as she climbed on one side of the bed and used pillows to separate them from the other side.
I looked at her and knotted my head. She is the only person who dares to speak to me the way she does.
I walked to the other side of the bed.
And slept.
