After the days work Sky was exhausted, she slept early and woke up around two hungry...She tried to be quiet so she wouldn't wake Anton up. They were alot of food in the fridge but what she wanted now was pancake and juice. She switch on the light and got to work.
Anton shook his head as he heard the noise from the kitchen, he put on his pyjamas and headed for the kitchen. He stood at the kitchen door watching her, she heard flour on her nose. She was frying the first pancake, she already put juice and a class cup. He watched her as she rubbed her palms together waiting for the food. He's gotten so use to her, he sighed as he watched her. When all this is over, he didn't know how he is going to live without her and somehow he wants to see his princess born and watch her grow.
How long are you going to stand there? I'm sorry I woke you up, I was trying to be quiet. Come sit I made enough for two.
Sky is it healthy for me to eat at this hour?
Oh sorry your highness, you can go back to sleep, she said pushing him out of the kitchen..
Hey, I never said I didn't want to eat. I'm just saying I'll get fat at this rate.....I'm suppose to be your knight in shining armour with eight pack and all.
Sky stopped pushing him and started laughing, well we should feed you well if you going to be my knight, sir Anton. Please sit your royal ass, I'm starving.
Allright sorry, eat. It taste so nice....what did you put in it?
Breast milk, Sky said smiling. She saw the look on Anton's face and bust into laughter. Hey don't throw up, I don't have milk in my breast yet. She pulled out her phone and took a picture of Anton. You need to see your face.
Sky I don't trust you anymore, please don't do that again, and please delete that picture.
We found Mr Jide's wing man but he's not someone we can get easily, he has people in the underworld. He's known among all the thugs in the Capital, it's almost impossible to meet him. He's an excon and I'm sure he's working for Mr Jide cause he owes him, if we can meet him...maybe we can get him to talk.
Hmmmm underworld you say. Ok just do what you have to do let me know if you need my help. But please be careful Anton, I don't want you close to that kind of people. Leave it to Stone and Bones to handle.
Don't worry I can do it. Anton said.
I know someone in the underworld but I really don't want to use that card, if I ask him to help me, then I'll owe him. I think he use to have a crush on me and right now I'm not sexy enough to seduce anyone.
You know people from the underworld? Anton asked surprised.
Why are you surprise? I'm the CEO of Jaydite, off course I do. Mr Jayden didn't want me to get involved with them so he took me there once to pay respect and asked them to watch over me...that is they shouldn't take any job that will hurt me. But I don't have personal connection with them...Sky lied as she ate her pancake. She knew how much Anton hates the underworld because of what they did to his family and Kira. But these are different people. Anton can be a hero anywhere but when it comes to the underworld he's a scared little child.
Why didn't you tell me about this? He asked.
Because there's nothing to tell. You try to contact the guy and if he refuse to see you. I'll have to use my card. Goodnight Anton, She said as she hurried away from the kitchen. She noticed his mood change as she said she knew someone from the underworld. Pheeew that was real close, if Anton finds out about what I'm doing before it's finished, he'll kill me. Sky said as she locked her room door.
The next morning, Anton left the house early as he had business to attend to while Dwayne took Sky to work. She was busy with work on her iPad when she noticed Dwayne looking at her from the mirror. She didn't say a word but just continued working.
He hasn't had the chance to talk to Ms Sky about Bisi since yesterday. He didn't know how to start the conversation. She didn't say much to him today, just how are you and hope you slept well and how's the project going?
He sighed as his phone rang...breaking the silence in the car. Hello yes I'm fine...good morning. No I could'nt do it yesterday, but I'll go there today...no, no, not that. not anymore. Ok I'll let you know how it goes, now please attend to her.
Who was that? Sky asked...she was sure she heard Beverly crying.
It's an old friend...I'm helping her out with something.
Hmmm I never knew you had married women as friends.
Yes ummmmmmm just this one.
I thought it was Brianna.
Oh no it wasn't. Dwayne said, laughing nervously. Ms Sky...can we talk?
You can call me Sky outside the office Dwayne.
Yes ma'am I'm just not used to it. I'm sorry about Bisi, and I understand if you want to terminate the contract. I was going to tell you that she visited me in City L but with the accident and all...I just couldn't find the right time.
Why would I terminate the contract cause you met her once?
Well ma'am I kept in touch with her even after the contract.
Oh you mean you were fucking her up until last month? Please Dwayne I beg you...I hate such encounter, to exchange words with girls cause of a man? it's embarrassing. Please don't let it happen again.
I'm sorry ma'am. It won't happen again.
I'm sorry too Dwayne, it's not fair to you too. We asked you to put a stop to your life just like that, even though it's for the best...I know it's not easy but I hate lies Dwayne and I want you to leave that life Dwayne, you've hurt people without knowing, you'll make enemies. And please i don't want to talk about it anymore.
Hi Mr Jide. I have a very important meeting soon, please let's hurry up with this. Neto said as he adjusted his tie, he hates wearing tie.
I'm aware that your company is in charge of all Jaydite architectural works and that you work one on one with the CEO. I also know Jaydite supplies your company almost everything you need and that your younger sister attends Jaydite university here at the
Capital. Mr Jide said
What are you getting at? Neto asked.
I know your father is an investor in Jaydite and that before he started this company here in Nigeria, he was already an investor and Mr Jayden even helped him with the land this property is on. And that your company is among the best in the country. I don't want to waste your time so I'm just going to go straight to the point. I'm sure you are aware of Sky's pregnancy and I know you two are intimate.
And? Neto asked.
I noticed she shoved you aside because of a nobody, she dumped you, decieved you and got pregnant for another man. Are you just going to accept that?
I'm listening. Neto said... adjusting his tie.
How would the public feel if they find out she's pregnant and has a playboy as a fiancee and jump from one lover to the other? Before it's too late...some of us, the shareholders and some investors are taking matters in our own hands. We are going to remove her before she ruins the company. A pregnant woman should be at home resting not running a big company like Jaydite. I know you both are intimate even thought you are not in good terms now...I need you to have her sign this document for me and I need you to sign this for me. Mr Jide said handling Neto some documents.
I thought you are her right hand man, why do you want to dethrone here.
Mr Jide smiled. She's too young to run a company, I've been doing all the work behind the scene, I think it's time someone worthy runs the company.
And that person is you? Neto asked. Look I don't want to have anything to do with that woman anymore, I don't even want to hear her name.
Then perhaps we should get rid of her. Mr Jide said
How? Neto asked.
Strip her off her power.
And why do you think I will help you?
Because I've been watching you Mr Greyson, and you care for no other person other than yourself. I already have signatures from some shareholders and investors, I just need yours and hers to seal the deal, agreeing to leave the company.
Ok just keep them there, I'll get back to you ....I'm leaving the country in a few hours. I'll take these with me so I can go through them.
But I will need the one with your signature.
I don't just sign things like that...Mr Jide, it's either I take it with me or you forget me helping you.
Allright fine, you can take it with you.
As long as no physical harm come to her, I'll do it. I want her to pay for toying with my heart but I don't want to hurt her.
Don't worry about that, she won't get hurt except she proves to be stubborn.
What do you mean proves to be stubborn, Do you plan to hurt her?
One can easily have accident, you know ? especially pregnant women. I don't have to do anything.
You mean like the accident in City L? Neto asked smiling.
You are a smart man Mr Neto. I'm sure you know what I mean.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
