The Secret 9
“Oh! No. This is unfair. I will not allow such matter to go like that if I were in your shoes.”
“She is merely venting her frustration on you. You have to put her where she belonged.”
“Dealing with her and the committee is effortless. Just use the social media and expose her and the committee.”
“This is injustice. How can the committee ask you to apologize to the person who wronged you?”
Now, Lorene had gotten enough motivation to fight Nichole to a stop. So, she appreciated her friends before they left. Now, she was not in the right mood to work, she merely sat in her office and waited until the close of work before she gathered her stuff and closed for the day or most likely closed forever. As far as she was concerned, Nichole would not go scot-free without getting a piece of her mind. Then, she walked to her office, barged in and began to curse.
“Nichole, it is not my fault that Mr. Bailey abandoned you and out of frustration you married an ugly poor duckling who cannot afford a decent car but a bucket of bolts. If you don’t’ give me his number, I will fish him out and marry him because I am the kind of woman he liked and not a nanny like you.”
Before Nichole, who was sitting calmly on her seat could respond, she walked out and banged the door and the sound attracted the other members of staff, especially Rachael. Then, she walked to Nichole’s office in a rush. Meanwhile, she was relieved when she saw her on her seat smiling. Then she inquired.
“I hope you are okay, Mrs. Bailey?”
“As you can see, I am all right.”
Now, Nichole, who had begun to tidy up for the day, gathered her stuff and the janitor accompanied her to the car park. Now, Lorene got to the car park too and saw Nichole, Rachael and Zoey walking towards Nichole’s car. She stopped and glared at Nichole before she blurted out.
“You simpleton, I am not done with you?”
Now, Mrs. Nichole Bailey talked back with one sentence that Lorene would not forget in a haste.
“I am done with you by giving you the contact of an empty-headed man like you.”
Now, Lorene, who had been mad at her for being careless with the contact she gave to her, could not believe that she deliberately gave her another person’s contact instead of the person she wanted his contact. Before she could say more, Nichole drove off with Zoey while the Janitor walked back to the office. Then, the bewildered Lorene stood beside her car for a few seconds before she gathered herself and got into her car. She drove out of the hospital with a determination to vilify Nichole in the social media.
At the Bailey Native Home
The troubled Mr. Phil Anderson took his wife and son home and set out to see his father-in-law who must know about the latest information he got concerning the problem they had at hand. It was a burden he must drop to enable him to sleep that night. So, he waited for Jude to be through with his Piano classes with Daniel before he left for the Native Home, while the driver took Jude back to the Tourist Center.
Now, Denise had instructed the security guards to deny Mr. Stephen Bailey access to the estate, but that day, he was in the company of a respected member of the Bailey’s family. So, deciding on what step to take became a difficult task for the Security guards
When Mr. Brown parked at the gate for a check, the security officer greeted him warmly but ignored Mr. Stephen Bailey, who was sitting on the passenger’s seat.
“Good day, Mr. Bailey. We are glad to see you.”
“Good day, officer. How is the work going?”
“The work is going smoothly, Mr. Bailey? May I know who you want to see at the Estate?”
The head of the family who knew that such interrogation was because of Mr. Stephen’s presence smiled and declared.
“I wish to see Arthur. He is expecting us.”
His explanation allayed the security officer’s fear, and he began to open the gate. Then, another car with the immigration emblem parked behind Mr. Brown Bailey’s car and the security officer halted. Then, he called the officer’s attention and cleared his doubt.
“We are together, officer. I like the way you do your job. Keep it up.”
“Thank you, Mr. Bailey.”
The security officer appreciated before he opened the gate, and they drove in. Now, Mr. Arthur Bailey who got back to the house a few minutes ago walked down from his room to receive them. He greeted them warmly before he took his seat. Meanwhile, Mr. Stephen was pleased with the warm greeting and the smile on Arthur’s face, then he concluded.
‘I will certainly get my money back and that will suffice.’
Then, Mr. Brown began to plead on the behalf of Stephen.
”Arthur, you are aware of our reason for coming to see you today. Foremost, I wish to appreciate you for been lenient with Stephen. As his family head, you know I would not sit back and allow this feud to linger. I would like you, in the spirit of family tie, please, tamper justice with mercy.”
Now, Mr. Arthur Bailey maintained an expressionless face and Mr. Justin Douglas, who the family head invited to help pacify Arthur, spoke.
“Arthur, you have heard from your kinsman. I am convinced that Stephen had regretted his actions by now. Please tamper justice with mercy.”
The mystery about that meeting was that Mr. Brown Bailey and Mr. Justin Douglas were not of the same with Mr. Arthur’s. They were his late brother’s mate and were relating with him out of the respect that they have for him. But Arthur was not interested in their speech because he must serve Stephen the surprise that he had prepared for him. Now, it was time for Stephen to comment on the speeches of the two speakers.
“Arthur, I apologize for accusing you wrongly. Please find a place in your heart and forgive me.”
