Chapter 5 - Chapter 4

THE FIRST BOSS

JEOFFERY'S POV

The day was so tiring after another day of fruitless search for Kelvin. I went upstairs after dinner with Jackie and her boyfriend Alex who has been staying with us after Kelvin's strange disappearance. I entered my room and took a quick shower and settled down to rest. My phone beeped as I got a call, I picked it up and checked who the caller was.

"MLG" was how I had saved it. I smiled as I answered the call

📞Hello MLG, I said happily as I answered the call.

📞Hello bae, you and your abbreviations with my name. haha, she said sweetly on the other line of the call.

"Yeah babe, you know I can't be mentioning your name here and there in this place just like that right?

Anyway, how are you doing MLG? I asked her sweetly.

I'm good and you" she replied

"Hmm I'm OK, just missing you crazily " I replied faking sadness.

"Awwwwn. I miss you too bae .she replied.

"Oh really, you do?

Yes babe a lot" she replied making me melt the more.

" So why did you call babe? I asked feeling curious.

"Oh yeah I called to check on how work is going " she replied.

"Oh work!! Everything is going on perfectly well MLG" I replied.

"OK, I heard a problem bumped up lately," she asked.

"Problem?? Ohh yeah about that, don't worry Everything got solved" I answered

Okay dear, do you think we can meet tomorrow bae? At our usual place to check up on the work? She asked me pleasingly.

"Of course anything for you, I answered feeling happy.

"Okay then see you tomorrow, I'll meet you there, I love you ...she said and ended the call before I could even respond. I placed my phone down and dozed off to sleep.

The morning sun shone directly through my window reflecting on my face and waking me up from my sleep. I yawned and made my way to the bathroom and took a bath. I came out with a towel tied around my waist. I creamed my body and put on a colourful flower top and a tight Jean trousers and finally wore my white sneaker not forgetting to put on her favourite perfume. I went downstairs to have breakfast, luckily I found Alex and Jackie munching on their food. I quickly took a sip and a bite and then got up to leave.

"Hey Jackie, I'm going out and might return late so don't leave me any food okay? I told her as I made my way to leave.

"Okay whatever, she replied absentmindedly looking at her phone.

"Hey, bro please take good care of her for me okay? I said turning to Alex

"No worries bro, I got her" Alex replied smiling.

I got outside, hopped into my car, ignited the engine and sped off.

Alex's POV

As soon as Jeoffery left, Jackie began to murmur.

What are you murmuring about? I asked immediately after I noticed.

"Him of course. She said referring to Jeoffery.

"What has he done this time Jackie? Can't you let that poor guy have some peace in life? I said to her looking serious.

"Ohh spare me that Alex, we don't even know the whereabouts of his friend and he's out there going to have fun probably with girls " she added.

"Ohh baby stop being dramatic, what's wrong with him going out with girls, he deserves some happiness after all. Moreover, he might be doing a secret search for your brother.

"Alright, I just hope you may be right. Jackie replied.

Just then my eyes flashed on a phone probably belonging to Jeoffery. Jackie confirmed it was Jeoffery's phone so I got out to give it to him. His car had driven off immediately I opened the gate. I hopped into my car to chase him. I followed the path he went diligently not to lose him ...Almost getting close to him, I got blocked by a long vehicle which made me lose sight of him..the long vehicle moved within a while and I accelerated ahead to catch up with him... I spotted the car from a distance which was making its way out of town..why is Jeoffery moving out of town. I thought

Finally, I saw Jeoffery's car coming to a halt in front of an old abandoned house.

"Where the hell is this place? Just then I saw Jeoffery step out of his car. I closed my eyes placing my head on the steer to sigh in relief after the long drive. I opened my eyes but Jeoffery had disappeared. All I saw was the main doors to the building shutting. I got out of the car to follow him to return his phone.

Kelvin's POV

I had dozed off to sleep after eating the unbalanced meal they gave me two days ago since I was starving to death until the door creaked open waking me up. I saw Einstein coming in my direction

"Wow you've done pretty well with your food, I knew you were going to eat once hunger strikes you .. he said annoyingly.

"Anyways your wish of seeing my boss would be granted. The boss is here to see you. He said to me.

My eyes fumed in anger as I was eager to see who was behind all this and why.

The door opened and the sound of footsteps could be heard coming in my direction. The darkness made the face of the person anonymous. The only source of light was the sun that shone from the window in my direction.

"Well well well. Mr Kelvin Clyde, long time no see " a familiar female voice said from behind the darkness said finally stepping in the light and exposing the face to me shockingly. My mouth dropped wide open as I saw who it was. I was speechless.

"Gloria!!!? I exclaimed in shock as I saw her face with an evil smile on.
