Chapter 30

“So what are you going to do? Follow her?” Carl asked in sarcasm.
“Well it isn’t a bad idea.” Tyler said and brought out his phone.
“Wait, what are you doing?” Carl asked in surprise.
“What else? I’m following her to J city.”
“I was just joking. Are you really taking my words seriously?” Carl couldn’t believe that Tyler would go back to the place he ran away from just because of a woman.
“Yes.” Tyler answered nonchalantly.
“You do realise what made you leave J city in the first place and you still want to go back?” Carl was really confused.
“Yes. I can’t let her go there alone.” Tyler said.
“Why not?” Carl asked in confusion.
“Because she’s with my heir.” Tyler said without thinking.
“Wait what???” Carl asked in shock.
Tyler ignored him and picked up his to call someone. The person picked up at the first ring.
“Hello boss.” The person at the other end answered.
“Clayton. I need you to prepare the private Jet for me. I’ll be heading to J city in a few minutes.” He said while checking his wrist watch.
“Okay sir.” Clayton answered and emded the call.
Carl stared at Tyler with a deep frown on his face as he rummaged through his closet.
“When did my brother have time to have sex with a girl. The last time it happened was five years ago and ever since then, he’s been treating them like plagues unless…..” Carl trailed as realization dawned on him.
“Wait… don’t tell me she’s that woman from five years ago.” Carl said in doubt as he walked towards Tyler.
“She’s the one.” Tyler and continued arranging his clothes in the suitcase.
“Really?? Why haven’t you done anything to her? She almost ruined your life remember. You should have threatened and asked her who she was working for.” Carl said.
“I can’t do that.” Tyler breathed out.
“Why not?” Carl asked.
“I don’t think she’s working for the enemy.” He answeted turning to face Carl.
“What makes you think so?” Carl asked.
Tyler sighed and walked towards his drawer, brought out a brown envelope and gave it to Carl.
“What is this?” Carl asked in confusion.
“Just open it and read it.” Tyler said and Carl complied.
“You see, before I found out, I did a background check on her. After she got pregnant, she was thrown out of her father’s house with nothing to feed her and her unborn baby. That’s why she came to M city.” Tyler explained.
“Then what about that night? How did she end up in you bed?” Carl asked closing the envelope after he had read it’s contents.
“I don’t know about that for now, but all I know is that she saved my life that night. She saved me from bedding the wrong girl.” Tyler answered.
“I hope what you just said is the actual truth.” Carl said.
“It is. She is innocent. She doesn’t even know I’m the father of her child.” Tyler defended.
“Woah. Seriously?” Carl asked in surprise.
“Yes. I don’t think she was in her right senses that night because she kept moaning another guy’s name.” Tyler said his words laced with jealousy.
“Wait. Don’t tell me you’re jealous.” Carl said trying to hold his laughter.
“I’m not. Now if you’ll excuse me, I have a plane to catch.” Tyler said and walked past Carl with his suitcase in his hands.
“Wait I almost forgot. I need you to do something for me.” Tyler turned to Carl.
“What is it?” Carl asked.
“My company is hosting a launching event this friday and sadly, I can’t be there so I want you to represent me.” Tyler said.
“What about Matthew?” Carl asked.
“He had to travel out for business.” Tyler said.
“I can’t do it. This isn’t what I came to J city to do. I came here for fun and relaxation and mostly to get away from father. I didn’t come here so you can give me more work to do. Plus I’m not the CEO, are your clients not going to be angry?” Carl asked arms akimbo.
“The client is whom I’m chasing after. Plus you’re the main shareholder, I don’t think they’ll have any problem.” Tyler answered.
“What??? You’ve started having romances with your business partners? Weren’t the one that said we should keep business and personal feelings seperate?” Carl asked.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
“That was way before I met her. Are you doing it or not?” Tyler asked tiredly.
“What do I get in return?” Carl asked.
“What do you want?” Tyler asked back.
“One of your many yachts.” Carl answered.
“You can have it.” Tyler answered.
“Thank you.” Carl said in excitement.
“You’re welcome.” Tyler answered and left his room with his suitcase in his hands.
He went to his garage with his assistant trailing behind him and got into the back of one of his car. His assistant sat in the driver’s seat and drove off to the airport.
He put on a pair of sunglasses and a face mask so as not to get recognized and walked towards the airport with his assistant dragging both of their luggages.
They settled in the jet and it took off in no time. While they were in mid air, Tyler looked oy through the window. He sighed and hope he wasn’t making a mistake by going back there.

Rosalie came out of the airport with Alex holding her right had and their luggages in the left hand. She sighed amd looked around.
This place has changed from how it looked five years ago. She couldn’t forget how she left in shame, hurt, anger and betrayal.
But now, she’s coming back stronger and a mind filled with revenge and they’ll all pay for how they treated her starting with her step sister.
