DEVON
I woke up at my usual time, and after getting showered, I checked my phone to see Smith's message.
='Everything's going well sir! There's no problem at all.'=
I sighed but couldn't find that relief. I should be happy that finally, the factory's construction was picking up the pace. Seemed like my trick worked on TGF and its CEO.
But then why this voice in my head kept saying that there was more yet to come?
I shook my head and get ready for the day.
I reached downstairs for breakfast but lost my appetite, the moment I saw Mason sitting beside mom, laughing at something she said.
But then I caught dad staring my way. I had no escape from this situation. I took my place across from dad at the other end of the table.
I noticed uncle Joseph's chair was empty but didn't mention it because I knew how Joseph Burke was a sore subject in the house.
"Good morning, Devon!" Mom was the first one to greet me with her dazzling smile.
