JESSICA’S POINT OF VIEW
“Because it seems like the case wasn’t entirely an accident ”
“You mean…. They have been murdered ”
“So it seems but this should be between us two, if I hear it anywhere else I hold you responsible ”
“Okay Ma, I understand, let me get to it now”
Once he left, I called my hacker Blac,
“Hello miss Jessica, sorry, Mrs Jessica ”
“No need, so?”
“You are right, it’s someone that you and your husband knows really well”
“Who could that be? Because I can’t remember knowing anyone my stupid husband knows ”
“It’s possible because you are still newly married but I thought you two dated”
“Don’t worry yourself about the details so who is it?”
“You are not going to like it though ”
“Okay, I said no problem, who is it?”
“It’s the CEO of Universe”
“You mean Mr Marcus”
“You mean him?”
“Yes him, he is the one contacting you, am surprised when I found out, this type of thing is usually left for the underlings to take care of, he must not have trusted his men to do it himself ”
“Haa, this is getting interesting”
“That’s not all, seems like there is some sort of story surrounding their family and your husband’s parents death”
“You mean, they might be responsible for it?”
“Yes, they might”
“Can you find out more for me??”
“Yea of course Ma, will get back to you about it”
“Sure thank you ”
MARCUS POINT OF VIEW
“Fools, how could you let her catch you and beat you up like a kid?”
I laughed loudly, just received a call telling me that the fool in the prison has been eliminated, now I just have to sleep soundly, am yet to hear from the other fool,
“Duu, duu, duu”
“….”
“Duu duu duu”
“Hello Mr Marcus”
“Yes, so?”
“So what?”
“What the fuck are you asking me, it’s about our deal”
“Oh, you really need to be more specific in your words Mr Marcus, am not one of your dogs ”
“….. hmph ” (not your fault fool, wait till you exhaust your usefulness )
“Yes, they are all staying at Mr Xavier’s house, and seems there is trouble in paradise because both were seen quarrelling this morning by neighbour which happens to be me”
“Hahahaha, I know I did well by telling the woman what her dear husband is planning to do to her, women, I love them”
“Well, I hope you keep your end of the bargain once everything is done”
“Sure, sure you did well, continue keeping an eye on them”
I hanged up and took a sip of the yellow brandy I was drinking, I tasted so sweet because of the wonderful news I got, I must confess she got me when she threatened me like that, I thought my plans failed, but trust humans, they tend to make mistakes when their lives are in danger or being threatened, once they divorced, I will continue but in case they don’t, there is always a plan B.
“Hello, come up to the office ”
I called up on my female secretary as usual, today is good and should be enjoyed,
“Hahaha hahahaha”
XAVIER’S POINT OF VIEW
I looked at all the people staring at me in the meeting room, their shrewd eyes looking for a weakness in my stance or words, I stared back at them with a probing eyes, some that doesn’t have a back bone avoided my eyes while the ones that had sold their conscience to the devil looked right back at me and those are the ones that needs to be looked into.
“So you are saying that three stock and shareholders sold their shares to you Mr Xavier ”
“You heard me right Mr Waters”
“That’s outrageous, how can they do that, it should be in open market and anyone interested can bid”
“Hahhahhaha, bid on it, does this company look like an auction house to you people, how dare you take it as a joke, how dare you tell me what I should do or not do in my own company ”
“We are sorry to sound like that but this company is not owned exclusively”
“Let me ask you, how much shares do you have to claim an owner, the business idea was from my grandfather, most money was put in by my grandfather too, we own up to 50 percent shares in this company and you gave the right to question me, let me remind you again that this is my and my family’s company, respect me and I will do the same, before I dismiss this meeting, I have one more thing I need to say, do what ever you want but never bite the hand that feeds you or chew more than you can swallow ”
I left them all coughing and clearing their throats like a frog that is croaking, it was hilarious to see them squirming around as I said my piece,
“Vuuuu, Vuuuuu, Vuuuu”
I felt my phone vibrate in my pocket, I took it out and seeing the caller my countenance changed,
“Hello Mike, throw me what you got”
“Okay, so we are right, three of the board members are as guilty as fuck, they are really responsible for what happened to your parents, they didn’t actually hire people, they find people willing and once they were done, they were eliminated….”
“I guess to keep the secret between them ”
“Yes, you are right and the funniest part about it is…”
“What is it?”
“One of them survived and has been looking for a way to get to them”
“Karma is a bitch right”
“Yes and it’s gonna hit them, you wouldn’t believe the things they have done with the company’s name”
“Haa, of course I would believe, I know them well enough to”
“And one more thing?”
“What could it be?”
“You wouldn’t believe who told Jessica about the stuff”
“Who ?”
“It’s is Marcus “
