Chapter 1 PROLOUGE

"You bastard, get out of my house. You are no longer needed" Kelvin my husband fumes with arrogant words at me. "You don't have to do this to me, Kelvin. We have gone a long way and now, what we just need, is understanding" I said, as I tried to convince him to let me stay. "This is what you have been saying for a long time and yet, nothing changes. At least, I have had enough of you. I can't keep risking spending my life with you. I have tried my best and moreover, you are nothing but a stupid pest to my life. Since I met you, you have brought nothing but pain and shame to me.

Because of you, I haven't been getting promotions at work. In fact, I cursed the day I met you" Kelvin said. I was weak when I heard the words that proceeded out of his mouth. My heart ached, and my emotions were in trouble. Ever since I met Kelvin, nothing has changed in my life. My life has been stagnant, and it was not even better than a dead corpse. I have been the one trying to make our relationship work and when it comes to making a family, he doesn't seem to have interest either. It pained me to see the man I have ever loved, chasing me out of his life as if I was a mere stranger or a sort of clueless fellow. I looked at him again, and couldn't believe that he was really the one doing this to me. "I must never see you in my house again, or anywhere around my life," He said, as he kept throwing and flinging my bags out of his mansion. "Where have I gone wrong? I have tried my best to make sure our marriage worked, but you have been the one frustrating the processes" "Really?" He asked as he opened his eyes in surprise. I relaxed my back close to the wall, and started to shed tears, thinking that he would be touched and finally get me consoled. While I was alone shedding tears, he came close to me. He bent and started to rub my face as if he was trying to wipe the tears coming out of my eyes. At once, I started to feel the usual feelings of romance I do felt, whenever he touches me. I was beginning to feel the man I married, and not the beast chasing me away. He posed a familiar face that suggests him being compassionate towards me. He raised my head towards himself, and when my emotions were calming down, he launched a heavy slap on my face. I fell to my feet and could see blood flowing out from my nose and mouth. "You idiot, you think you can keep tying me down with your reckless attitude? I don't even know how you got into my life in the first place. Just know that the more you stay here, the more you will likely get injured so, it's best you leave my environment now, or you take the painful risk of entering the lonely grave" Kelvin informed. He spoke to me, without showing any sign of compassion at all. He showed me for the first time, the beastly side of himself. Ever since I knew him and fell in love with him, I knew that our relationship wouldn't work. In fact, I don't really know who he was rejecting me for, but what I know is that he has been going out with a special lady for the past five months. However, I may not been authentic about the lucky witch he has been moving out with because I officially observed his cheating attitude for over a year now. "Come and take her away from here" He ordered two of his bodyguards who furtherely came and kicked me out of his presence. "Since you have refused to sign this divorce document, I therefore, sign it on your behalf'' He said, as he flanged it to me. "Damn, he really meant business'' I said in my mind, as I watch my bags and myself being chased out. What pained me the most was that the day was already dark, and the night was ruling? It was already clocking 10 pm, when this bastard was engaging with me. He couldn't even wait till the next morning. In fact, I was only about to eat my meal, when he suddenly returned from the goddamn place he went. This bastard has really disrespected and hurt my feelings and for this reason, I shall deal with him soon, once I get the opportunity. While I was already walking outside the gate in humiliation, a dark and tinted car that was passing over me, suddenly stopped. Finally, my heart melted down, thinking that a compassionate savior had come for me. "Come dear'' A female voice from the car spoke. I went close to hear who she was and what she would have to tell me. As I went close to the car screen, a hand-launched a wicked slap on my face. I was wondering who it was, until she pulled out her head outside the screen, so I could see her. While she pulled out her head, I saw different men in suits coming out from other cars, and walking close to my side. As I was beginning to feel scared and suspicious of these people in suits, it finally came to my knowledge that Stephanie was the one who just slapped me. ''You Stephanie? How dare you?'' I fumed. ''Ha ha ha'' She smiled and laughed. ''You fool. You really thought that your husband loved you? Under your nose, I have collected your husband, and guess what, am about to ride on him this night, while you will remain homeless throughout'' She said intimidatingly. I was about to slap her when a suited man held my hand tight and squeezed it. ''Beat her up, and throw her into the bush'' Stephanie ordered. Immediately after she spoke this, a tall man landed a heavy blow on me, and I fainted.

Chapter 2 Introduction

Six months later, ''Greetings ma, we are very happy to see you'' Mr. Lugard said. ''Welcome madam, we are glad that you finally made it here'' Mrs. Esther spoke. I acknowledged them, by nodding my head, while the security man opened the car for me. I came out and found hundreds of workers patiently waiting and standing. It was the first time I saw and stood in my husband's magnificent company. I couldn't have come over, if not for John's illness, which has kept him in a helpless state.

Thus, he has no other option, than to delegate power for me to handle the administration of his company until he comes. While I was thinking of John, I decided to greet one-on-one, those workers who assembled to welcome most especially the company's executives. I shook hands with each of them, until I reached a certain level, and held my hand back. Damn, I was surprised to see Kelvin also standing. The moment he saw me, he was full of shock and surprise. I was also shocked because he never expected me there. Yes, he was probably expecting another woman but was hit by my presence. Oh my god, my heart boiled the more after I saw him, and anger filled all over me. When I was still married to Kelvin, he didn't tell me he was working for ''Cherubim Limited'', He always told me that he was a general manager in a hotel in New York. Now I know that he hates me. He hated me to the core to the extent that he never wanted me to even know where he was working. ''You are welcome ma'' He bowed his head and greeted in shame. '' Thank you'' I responded. ''Thank you, everyone. I shall visit you all in due time'' I informed, and was taken to my expected office by Kelvin and other executives of the company. I was wondering why in the first place, Kelvin was among those following me to my office, until I asked about the whereabouts of the general manager. ''I am'' ''You?'' I asked Kelvin after he said he was in charge of all workers. Finally, I accepted the fact that he is, but something has to be done about it. I expelled everyone from my office, except my bodyguards, whom I needed to stay right behind me. My husband John, has instructed me to always work with the bodyguards he mandated for me until he comes. I sat in my office and was full of happiness. I never knew that John had such kind of big company in the country. Now, I see reasons why some group of secret dudes wanted him dead. He is a popular and influential billionaire, whose wealth and influence have gotten to the eyes of many. However, I need to make changes before he comes. The doctor has previously informed me that he only has a few weeks to recover from the food poisoning and before he comes, I must make some changes. I called on my secretary Mrs. Newman, to immediately check Kelvin's past record. I intended to check whether he was actually qualified for such a high position that was given to him. She quickly suspended whatever she was doing, and attended to my demands. Three hours later, she came with a clean file, where she documented her findings and reports. She handed it over to me, and I became engaged on the spot. To my greatest surprise, I saw that Kelvin wasn't worth the position given to him. How then, did he climb to such an extent? I asked myself. From what I was seeing, he has no good record with the company. So, how come? Something must be wrong and fishy somewhere. However, he has been a dubious fellow since I knew him. My intuition was now suspecting him. Although, this is business, and I must be very careful not to let emotions rule over me. My husband John, has been affected by negative forces around him, who has tried to eliminate him. I met him as a frustrated and hopeless man, despite how wealthy he was. His ex-wife betrayed him, by divorcing him on the ground that she was no longer enjoying her marriage and now, she is engaging in a legal case with him, over the splitting of his wealth. She is demanding that his wealth be divided equally. John told me that a mysterious man is standing behind his ex-wife's back and till today, he has no knowledge of whom this dude is. This was one of the things that contributed to his health challenges but since we met and had a one-night stand on the night I was divorced and chased by Kelvin, he has been depending and hoping on me to assist him in winning all his cases against his enemies. I am not a lawyer, neither am I a security officer but the best and least I could do for him, I will. After scanning through the document about Kelvin, I folded it and kept it in my handbag then, I went around all the departments of the company, to check and see what workers were busy doing. I was surprised to see that many workers and staffs were just jesting and gossiping. They seem to be playing with their jobs. ''But I thought managers and H.O.Ds are watching over them?'' I asked one of my bodyguards. ''I think they are not serious, and they are not been watched after'' Samuel one of my bodyguard spoke. No wonder my husband was complaining to me that his company was about to fall, that the Morales of his workers were deflated and declined. To me, it looks like they were doing eye services because they all rushed to their various work, the moment they saw me. I just laughed because they don't know whom they are dealing with. After the inspection, I called for the presence of Kelvin my ex-husband and manager of the company into my office. The moment he came in, I gave him a letter in an envelope and when he opened it, he saw that it was a letter of demotion. His services as the manager of the company were no longer needed.

Chapter 3 Might

Despite the fact that I was made and given the power to run the company for the main time until the return of my husband, I always remember that am in a contract marriage with him. A contract marriage of just six months which I accepted because I had no direction in life. In the contract, he was to give me $3 million after six months. At least, I would have to use it to arrange my life and live the kind of life I dreamed of. But as things are currently going, I don't think am ready to back out of the contract marriage. Was it because of his wealth? No, I doubt it.

I just think I need to spend a little time in his life for at least, three years because, at the moment, his world has been crushed apart. My world also has been crushed, ever since Kelvin rejected me, over a stranger. However, I won't try to force or convince him, into extending our marriage agreement but if he will, I would agree. Meanwhile, I was on my way being driven in my car to work, when suddenly, I saw a high flow of traffic jams that caused unrest on the road. I saw many motorists and some road traffic wardens murmuring but I don't know what was going on. Finally, we escaped the traffic, but we discovered that the more we moved towards my husband's company, the more the road became tight. I was surprised to see over Three thousand workers protesting, all holding boards and carbon sheets with different inscriptions on them. I was wondering what was happening when one of the police officers who was guiding the company came to inform me that Kelvin was leading a mass protest and revolt against me. I was not moved by his actions. I just ordered my driver and security men, to clear the way for me to pass, and they did. In fact, if not for the security men, those protesting workers would have possibly attacked my convoy, and done away with it. ''He is protesting because you demoted him yesterday'' Mr. Lugard informed me. ''I see. How many management officials are spearheading this with him?'' I asked. ''Just three, madam'' He responded. Thirty minutes later, some team of policemen, came in and arrested Kelvin and his cohorts. I should have let them be free with their activities of protesting, but I don't just want to give my perceived villains any space if not, they would do more harm to the already collapsing company. However, when the multitudes of workers saw that their agitating leader had been apprehended, they were left with no option of retrieving back to their day jobs. Most of them have no clues of what happened, or why I demoted him from his executive position. They must joined in the protest because he influenced their will. I was very much ready for that day, to the point of drawing out a list of those to be promoted to some executive positions. I demoted all managing officers of the company, and finally selected different dudes entirely, to head various departments in the company. However, I have different reasons for demoting all managers and leaders of the company but it was mostly, for strategic reasons, and some few reasons best known to me. ''Cling_ Cling'', the company's bell rang. I have given a three-day emergency break to all workers, to go home and relax until the resumption date. It was time for me to re-shape the company back to its glorious days, and that was exactly what I was doing. I immediately called my new company executives to a round table meeting, and the company's interest superseded our discussion. I wanted everyone to be up and doing since I discovered how 'I don't care' everyone was operating. We started to formulate laws and would make sure they were implemented. ''Madam, I discovered that the company is currently owing much debt, but from what I am seeing, I can't explain how and when we accrued so much of this debt'' Gideon, my new financial manager informed me. ''Oh! That's good of you Mr. Gideon. How quickly were you able to detect this? I asked in surprise. ''It's currently in our financial records, and it was the first notification that popped up just now'' He clarified. ''We shall look into such, and soon, we shall be free from those debts'' I said. While the meeting was still ongoing, I used such an opportunity, to call for a review of the company's constitution. Different cases and parameters were raised against the present one we were using, and it was here that I discovered that the company's constitution was changed just two years ago. ''What's really happening in this company?'' I asked in a frustrating and angry-looking voice. All the new executives turned and started looking at themselves one after the other. Their looks gave me a clue that something fishy was going on but from the look out of things, no one was ready to speak out. Not even the new manager ''Mr. Lugard'', was willing to talk. Thus, it was here that I knew that a stronghold was waging war, and controlling the minds of my workers. The feelings of insecurity filled all over me, and the spirit of desperation to conquer every secret enemy around the company, began to grow in me. This simply means that I can't trust anyone, not even my secretary because, I don't know who is who. ''Anyway, I will start the mission of probing all workers of this company, as from next month'' I informed. ''We are right and solidly behind you in this, madam'' Mr. Lugard, the new manager, said to me. The rest executives nodded their heads in anticipation of my words. However, I saw fear and something that looked like unbelief in their eyes. They seemed not to believe that I would execute the aforementioned and before we closed the meeting, the manager Mr. Lugard said, ''I would like to see you in secret madam''. I wondered why.
