Lust & Love (The enemy within) - Season 1 - Episode 10

I raised my head up in amazement and confusion. What is he saying? I thought to myself. I looked at him in the eyes and he nodded back at me, then he turned to Tunde and gestured him to continue from there.

Tunde: Shortly after Abigail started dating Jide, their intimacy grew strong and they started spending more time with each other to the point that she started staying over at his house. On one morning while Abigail was at Jide’s house. Jide had gone to the firm leaving Abigail alone by herself………

Me: hm hm?(I cut in as if encouraging him to go on)

Tunde: she was doing a general cleaning of Jide’s house when she stumbled on some documents belonging to the firm. They all contained your signature for some post dated transactions which were to be carried out later. She also found a stamp, the replica of the one you use at the office.

Me: Jesus!!!

Tunde: Jide was not only carrying out these transactions, he intended to frame you for it when the time comes. You were too lenient with him. Most of those documents pass through your table but you wouldn’t know because you do not check his work. He knew this and he took advantage of your naivety.

By now I have my hands on my head. My focus was no longer on the matter of my wife serving me a divorce. I just want to know if I am now safe and how I got to be saved. Tunde continued ‘this is why your father in-law asked you to stop appending your signature on all files for the time being. Despite this, the transactions still kept coming with your signature on it. That was how we got to know that you knew nothing about it. You were being framed’

I could already feel the dryness in my throat, I reached for my cart and took out a bottle of energy drink and emptied it in one gulp. I was feeling pains in my chest again, d--n this suddenly frequent pain! I sat on the course close to my cart thinking about the latest revelation. Then I heard my father in-law’s voice ‘you should be grateful to Abigail for revealing this to me shortly after that incidence at your house if not it would have been you in the cell in place of Patrick and Jide’ I was tempted to now ask ‘but sir, what role did Mr. Patrick play in all of this?’ my father in-law gave me that his smile again and beckoned Tunde to explain that part to me.

Tunde: we made attempts to contact the companies that were involved in those transactions to find out if they were involved in all this. What we found out was that they actually paid in full for the purchase they made just not into the firm’s account. They paid into Mr. Patrick’s account who told them the company was having some issues with its account at the time. Upon checking the account history of Mr. Patrick, it was discovered that they actually paid the money to him and he in turn transfers some parts to Jide’s account while he keeps the rest for himself.

My father in-law cuts in again ‘Ben! you were a dead meat already if not for the God your mother serve and Abigail’ in my mind I’m like so I should be thankful to the same woman who has successfully ruined my marriage! I sat there for some minutes reminiscing on everything I have just heard and then my mind took me back to what brought me here. Just as I was about to ask my father in-law about my marriage, he gave me another shocker ‘and Ben for your information, Abigail was never pregnant………………………………………….’
