Chapter 68

Marcos pov.
Marcus is the father of Jeffrey who falls into a desperate situation and eventually leaves his wife for a rich woman... Today he's seen struggling hard to meet his needs.
This rich woman fell in love with him and to me, the love was unbreakable but today, both of them are being classified as strangers!.
I don't even believe that my son is working with that stupid son of that woman... Damn.
What even brings both of them close... I thought he's the one that put my son in prison... or is the news creating a story for us.
I don't believe it... how wish I knew sooner, I shouldn't have helped him.
Damn... That means the whole world already knows that I'm a bad father and a bad husband... damn... just can't believe it.
Should I walk to that woman's house now? Or should I call her on the phone right now? No... I can't do that... I can't go back to the old times... I need to change!
But... wait... a minute... changed? how will I ever have to make up with my lost family... they must have been through a lot and I wasn't there for them... look at my son... he's a grown man now and I can't even look him in the eyes for up to two minutes...
"I'm disappointed in myself" Tears roll down his eyes but he quickly Cleans them away.
Oops... what should I do now? What should I do? I don't even know why I was so involved with this kind of a mess.
Things changed but my son is right... I wasn't there during the time he needed. prison, hospital, even a visit, I wasn't there for them so why do I even have to think that they'll forgive me...I still don't get it...They won't... even if I have to kill myself for them... they still won't... What should I do now? Or I should leave this country for good...Yes... leaving this country for good is a nice idea but what about this money?
Damn... I have to wait for my son to open this safe for me... damn! Fucking screwed...
Anyway, it was not late, immediately I laid my hands on this money... I promise to run far away from this country... Yes...It's the only way to keep myself safe...But...
I feel this is the wrong thing I'm doing... Why do I even have to run away? Anyway... it's not my fault but the public or the masses... What do they think of me? a bad reputation and a disgrace to manhood...
I can't bear it... I must leave this country or... should I say... I begged them for forgiveness but I'll leave this country as soon as possible! Damn... 'Begged' My inner voice yelled at me.
How do I even have to set my knees on the floor just in the name of love? Can I do that? No... I'm not doing that... I'm leaving this country... The moment my son hands this money over to me... But... Why am I having a guilty conscience...
"Am I guilty?" I asked myself... staring at the bottle of wine and glasses on the table...
Anyways... the offense has already been committed, I have to leave it now!.. If only I was there for my family, I couldn't have received insults collected from different people... Anyway, this country is not mine... I need to start a new life, somewhere else and somewhere quiet... I just pray my son doesn't give me any silly attitude... that boy is something else... he talks like his mother and emulates her character also.

"Now that we have the money... what's the next plan" I smiled while I was driving back to Dean's house!.
"Hmm... we still have the whole of today... So let's get you all some nice clothes and shoes... don't worry, bills on me" Dean commented smiling hardly as he tried to maintain to voice not to burst into tears
"It's not yet over... aren't we going to give them the money today? The black wolves leader asked Dean as he was paying attention to our conversation.
"Yeah! I think we should do that... This money is huge and once it's gotten out of track... We are finished" I seconded as I turned my neck and looked at Dean.
"Huge... Dammit guys...We are not giving them today...don't worry... the money is safe..." He yelled at us who were trying to help him.
"Do you have any solid reasons for this?" Wayne asked as he stared at him while I parked the vehicle by the side of the road.
"Don't worry, you'll know the reason when the time is right" He smiled... "Oh! Jeffrey, you are here... let's change our outfits... I'm sorry for not doing that for a long time" He turned his neck and smiled as he saw the city beauty boutique...
"Damn" I honked my eyes because of the water and that is the reason I stopped the vehicle but it turns out that I stopped in the wrong spot.
We all walked slowly into the boutique and some personnel were in charge of our dressing.... we refused to dress up so we took all the close to the hotel where we spent the night!
The following day, Dean asked us to join him at work so we put on our designers' clothes we just bought yesterday...
because of the dressing, we didn't drive to work early... It was around 10.27 am that we reached the office and from a distance, I could see that all my staff were standing outside...
"What's going on here?" Dean yelled as he stepped down from his vehicle.
"Sir...we...do..." The little girl was about to complete her statement when one of the personnel in charge came out.
"You failed to pay the 10 million dollars and this is what it results to... sorry sir... you can take your leave now" The man talks to Dean as if he owns this place already.
"Look at this young man..." Dean looked at us and laughed and we joined him... "Call me...your... manag" Before he completed his statement the manager came out.
Dean walked into his vehicle and brought out a bunch of money... worth more than 12 million Dollars.
"Take... Here is your..." He sprinkles the money on the foot of the manager who intends to take the company... "That money over there is worth more than 12million dollars... Have it... and dont near my office again" Dean smiled as he walked into his office while telling his staff to accompany him.
