Must Read: Love and Revenge - Season 2 - Episode 37

Tommy Anderson rubbed his palms vigorously as he looked away from the piercing and angry eyes of his partners.
‘as matured as you Anderson, you cannot teach your daughter good manners. God! I cant believe i’ve been partners with a father of a murderer. Look what your daughter’s scandal has caused us, we are almost going bankrupt! And the embezzlement case has not been settled. How can we lose three billion in two weeks!’ One of the partners fires.
‘calm down Ali, we can settle this matter amicably’ Abraham said in a soothing voice.
‘dont tell me nonsense Abraham, dont you dare!’ he said hitting the table. Of all the other shareholders/business partners he was the angriest because the money he put into running the company was the largest.
‘look…..’he said pointing angry and accusing fingers at Tommy and Abraham ‘i give you both, three days to refund me my money else…..else!! I will not say anything yet until i bring security agents with me and have this company shut down!’
‘it has not gotten to that,’ Chief Adams interjected ‘Mallam Ali, we understand that you own a large amount of shares in this company, and we also understand that the money you put into the company is way too large but you should also try to understand the ordeal this people are passing through. When the going was good, we all benefitted from it. We are shareholders of this company so this company is our company, when the condition is good, we are the ones to enjoy it, when business is bad, we dont have to start pointing accusing fingers at one another, we have to put our heads together and sort things out…….’

‘you….dont….understand….me Chief Adams so i’ll suggest you just stick your nose out of this. Your money is not up to half of what i’ve contributed so please….just wait for your turn. This man here, Tommy Anderson is at fault! How could he let his daughter ruin business for us, what nonsense! You’re telling me to be part of something i know nothing about simply because i’m a shareholder of this company? Hell no! Because i wasnt there when his ill-mannered and silly daughter tried to kill her colleague out of maybe jealousy or beefing!’
Tommy closed his eyes and placed his palms on his forehead.
‘we are not saying that you have no right to be angry Mallam Ali….’ Peter interjected ‘we are just saying…..’
‘please keep your young and immature speech to yourself’ Ali said immediately ‘by the way, arent you supposed to be the fiance of this murderer? Or you called off the engagement immediately you heard the news?’
‘i dont see how this is related to business Mallam Ali’ Peter said.
‘yes it is not, so just shut up. I put it to Tommy Anderson that he’s the cause of this momentary chaos this company is facing……’
‘thank God you said momentary chaos!’ Chief Adams said ‘momentary…..is temporary, every company is meant to have setbacks and trying times…..’

‘this….is not a business setback MR. I KNOW ALL!’ Ali fired ‘this is a sheer case of foolishness! Oh yes. Business is not going well due to some scandals….scandals of the daughter of nobody else but Tommy Anderson. What i have a major problem with here is the 3billion thats missing. A whole 3billion? In this company? And in who’s custody was this 3billion? Tommy Anderson. Who’s person’s department has been losing contracts frequently? Tommy Anderson. Who’s been facing critics from the media causing clients to be discouraged from investing in our company? Tommy Anderson. Who’s being pointed as the father of a murderer? Tommy Anderson. So what are we not saying? What….are….we….not….saying then?’

Everywhere became silent and Tommy felt it, the piercing look everyone gave him. He knew he needed to immediately say something. How the 3billion got missing from the company’s account bothered him? How did it happen? And when? Why? Who was responsible? The money was left under his care and then this?

‘uhm….i…..everyone, i….i’m sorry for everything thats been happening in this company for a short while now. Mallam Ali was right, i’m responsible for it all, i…..’
Before he could utter one more word, a loud gunshot was heard from outside the company…..
