CHAPTER THIRTY THREE
PHILIP'S POV
My trip to Kwara state was postponed due to the elections that Chief was contesting for.
I had alot of work to do here in the E.R Estates headquarters that I had to cancel my flight.
"Will you be coming out for lunch? A worker inquired
"No, I've got my food here. Thank you" I replied
"You brought a Lunch pack?? He asked quite surprised.
"Lol. Well my Woman made them so who am I to say no? I asked
"God when" he teased
"Guy fly" I laughed back and faced my Computer.
I texted Felicia to know about how her schedule was. She was supposed to come to the Office today, on the invitation of Chief.
I was expecting her reply but I hadn't gotten any since the last text about her friend came in. She texted that the reason Jacinta had given her five bloody missed calls that night was because Her boyfriend Proposed to her. And so, out of happiness she buzzed her friend's phone.
My phone beeped, an incoming call.
"Hello gee" I answered
"Philip, I need you to warn your girl. If she crosses my line, you know what I can do" Caleb threatened
"Wait relax, I don't understand. You haven't even met my girl to start with"
"My mother has laid complaints of your girl threatening to kill her. It won't be funny if I have to call you concerning this issue again"
"I'll talk to her, meanwhile you gats chill"
He hung up and I couldn't help but wonder.
Felicia? Threats?
Was that the reason for the delay in the kitchen?
Bruh I need to speak to Felicia.
CALEB'S POV
I hung up after telling him what I needed to. I felt it was better to warn him first instead of taking actions just already. Philip was a friend no doubts and Informing him was a better option. Truth is, my money was the only thing I cared about at the moment.
The money dropped this morning but instead of my account it entered Roger's. I already called Roger and Emeka to meet me in one of the Bars. Kendrick went on a trip and so, until he returns I'll just share the money with the other guys.
FELICIA'S POV
Philip barged into my house and started shouting at the top of his voice that I should tell him what was going on. Dude really needs a chill pill.
I was applying my liner when he came so I was having an incomplete makeup on my face.
"FELICIA I'M TALKING TO YOU"
"Can't be me you're shouting at" I snapped
"WELL IF THERE'S SOMEONE ELSE HERE, YOU SHOULD TELL ME!
"Philip, if you can't maintain decorum then get out of my house. You're screaming"
"LISTEN, I need you to tell me what is going on" he stated "Why on earth did you go to threaten Chief's wife?
"What nonsense are you saying? I asked him
"Don't pretend. That day in chief's party, you followed her to the kitchen and delayed because you wanted to threaten her! Now tell me what that was about! He replied with a tone anger could be seen through.
Oh, now I understood where everything was heading to.
"I followed her to the kitchen to help her wash the fruits Philip!
"Lies, Tell me the truth. Felicia you don't know who you're dealing with, Caleb is dangerous" he blurted in anger.
"Right" I replied eyes locked with his. "Come to think of it, who is feeding you with these nonsense?
"Caleb called me"
"Same Caleb who wasn't present in that party, or is there someone else called Caleb in that house?? I asked "What is his source?
"Felicia come over this. Tell me the truth!
"ANSWER ME" I replied.
"His mother called him and told him you threatened to kill her and all that"
"What the hell! So She doesn't want to get a life Huh? I asked in anger and went to my drawer to bring out an envelope.
"I'm waiting for an explanation" Philip chirped
"Now you shut up. If someone can tell you something about your girlfriend and you believe and come to shout at me then you shouldn't even be here"
"Felicia"
"No, don't call me" I replied. "Take this" I said handing over the envelope to him.
"What's in here?
"Check for yourself" I replied and sat leg crossed on my chair.
I watched him tear the envelope and look in confusion.
"Felicia what on earth am I doing with a picture of a woman and her child?
"Look at that picture closely" I said. "That picture there is a picture of Mrs Emeshile and your missing brother"
"HUH" he said looking so confused already.
"You heard me. The lady who had an affair with your father is Mrs Emeshili. She married Chief by blaming the pregnancy on him. She is Nneka Odili and that boy is your father's son. Your brother and Caleb" I manged to say without pausing.
"Whatttttttt?
"Yes. Caleb has been your missing brother all along" I repeated. Caleb is your brother. Your flesh and blood"
"This can't be. Does Caleb know about this?
"Obviously not. His mother is only using him to try to silence me. To hell with all of you"
"Felicia I'm so sorry, I need to get to Caleb right now!! He said and dashed out
I watched him leave and continued applying my makeup. I had an appointment with Chief Emeshile.
