CHEATED : EPISODE 1 – 20
Episode 15.
I began pacing up and down the room in deep sweat.
Apart from finding it hard to believe what I saw, I needed to clear all evidences before my father gets home because if he ever finds out, I’d be dead before I see the light of the next day.
“Okay guy, calm down. Just chill.” I kept telling myself as I checked the time; if anyone would come home, it’d be in the next 30- if you ask me, it’s more than enough time to do what I want to do.
I remember when I was 7, after receiving the beating of my life and being forbidden to go near here, I was confused about how he knew I came here because I wasn’t caught red handed per say.
I immediately rushed upstairs on remembering how I was caught and walked into the study room.
“No wonder dad put a CCTV there.” I said as I worked on the system and got what could land into trouble wiped off.
I then proceeded to sweeping the passage to the room to clear footprints and thought of what next to do.
“But what are the hidden consequences of seeing that? There must be consequences, since it has been under lock and key all these while.” I thought to myself as I paced around in confusion and fear.
“Kingsley! Yes! I need to call Kingsley to pray for me. He might have more understanding to this than I do.” I said as I clicked my fingers and reached for my phone.
“What is the meaning of this???” Mr. Frank said as he threw some documents at the face of his secretary.
“Sir, the report here says that you used one of your mansions as collateral and you’ve not been able to pay for……”
“Oh come on will you shut up?! Who said I didn’t read the content? Didn’t you forward the money to the bank or what?”
“I did Sir, but it’s not complete yet.” His secretary responded as Frank help his head in frustration and motioned on his boss to leave.
Things have been unseemingly difficult for Frank sometime now; losing contracts here and there, targets failed and disappointments becoming the order of the day.
The last straw that broke the camel’s back is this present one; he had given his house as collateral if he won’t be able to pay, actually thinking that he would.
Now since things didn’t work out as planned, his Mansion would be seized and that would be the last property he owns- leaving him with just the present house he’s living in and little cash.
“What on Earth is happening??? How powerful is this Kingsley guy now that dad can’t get rid of him and handle this situation? I mean, it’s not like dad is inexperienced or it’s his first time nw. God!!! What do I do now?” He soliloquized, lamenting within.
“Infact, I need to contact my backup.”
“Good morning ma’am.” Kingsley said with a smile plastered on his face.
“Good morning dear.” The woman at the restaurant responded as she also returned the smile.
“I’m here to resume my duty.” Kingsley said as the overjoyed last smiled broad.
“You’ve agreed to work here? Thank you.” She said as she explained what he’d be doing.
Kingsley later got to know that same day, that get name was Mrs. Gladys.
“You’d learn a lot here.” A voice within said as he started work.
