The next morning Zaid was coming downstairs dressed up for work, he could hear Zohra's and Nuaimat's laughter, he entered the kitchen to see them all dressed up for office, Zohra wore a peach colour blazer on white and peach sleevless top, then a skinny white trouser, a peach heeled shoe with a brown sole, then a peach and white hand back on the counter , then a white veil round her face on her head,
Nuaimat wore a white peplum blazer on a maroon top, then a white skinny trousers with tiny maroon designs on it, then a maroon heeled shoe and a maroon hand bag on the counter, a maroon veil which made she made a turban with on her head, it wasn't a new thing that two new hot, classy and beautiful ladies have joined the company, and the two are sisters to the CEO.
Tanisha has already left for school, he entered the kitchen as they all kept quiet, he sat by the counter, "breakfast" he asked with a no nonsense voice,
Zohra and Nuaimat exchange a knowing look, "it's here" said Zohra placing a tray of his breakfast in his front, "its getting late, lets go Zohra" said Nuaimat and the two quickly grabbed their bags and headed to the exit, "not so quick" he said, making them stop on the track,
"Wait if it is about yesterday, its my fault, i suggested we go out, and took the car, i was the one who rode it all night" said Nuaimat,
"Then in that case Zohra you are free to go, and Nuaimat stay" he said,
"But i....."go now" he ordered, Zohra looked at Nuaimat who nodded, she then sighed and headed out, "go straight to the office" he called after her, and he turned to Nuaimat with a smirk,
"Now your punishment" he said
"You have....... "i have every right to as your senior brother" he interrupted her, she gave him a scowl
"First you will sit and watch me eat and together we will go to the office" he said, now that for Nuaimat is a huge punishment, she pouted and sat down waiting impatiently for him.
After eating, cleared everything himself, "ready" he said, so she angrily grabbed her bag and went after him.
The two were at the back of his silver GMC acadia, as the chauffeur drives them to the office, on reaching the office they, the two came out, just when Naomi came up to him, she completely ignored Nuaimat and said "Good morning Z man"
"Morning Naomi" he said with a smile,
"Everything is set with for your meeting with the members of the B.O.D, by 10.Am, but you still haven't told me what the meeting will be all about"
"You like over stepping your boundaries secretary, for your information i asked for the meeting" said Nuaimat she then turned to Zaid, "make sure you are set for our nine o clock meeting, which is by the way ten minutes late, oh thanks to you and your ridiculous punishment"
"Which you liked" he added with a smirk,
"Yeah i enjoyed seeing you, gulping and masticating, i will see you in ten, in your office" she said hitting her finger on his chest and then turned to walk away, "um honey your left artificial fixed eyelashes is off the lid, so irritating" she said to Naomi and she walked away leaving stunned Naomi touching the eyelashes. Zaid did well to take back the urge to chuckle out loud.
Ten minutes later, Muayad, Zohra, and Nuaimat, walked into Zaid's office, Naomi was seated on one of the Sofa, checking some files,
"Meeting about to start" said Nuaimat,
"Hey Naomi" called Muayad with a smile, she gave him a wave and a smile,
"You are dismissed" said Nuaimat dryly at Naomi, "excuse me, i am his secretary, his PA, i stay whenever he has meetings" said Naomi,
"I know you are his PA and his secretary, you are to old to be that for my liking, besides as you can see, this is a family affair, and sorry you are not family, so out you go" said Nuaimat with a scowl,
Naomi looked at Zaid who just nodded, she hissed and said "if you need anything call me" with that she packed her documents and walked out,
"You are a trouble maker" said Zaid,
"And you have a weird choice of secretary, gosh she is boring and annoying" said Nuaimat
"Are you jealous" asked Zaid with a glint of mischief in his eyes, "huh, you wish" said Nuaimat
"Then it's owkey if i ask her out, i mean she is beautiful, she is classy and say what she likes me alot" said Zaid,
"Can we get back to Business" said Nuaimat, Zohra and Muayad roared into laughter,
"What" inquired Nuaimat,
"You are jealous of Naomi" said Muayad still laughing,
"No"
"Yes, you are, i don't like her either but you are too hard on her" said Zohra,.
"She thinks so full of herself, but am not jealous" defended Nuaimat, they laughed the more,
"can we start the meeting" she asked,
"So what's this all about, am curious" said Zaid
"Its uncle Hamood" said Zohra,
"What about him" he asked, there Nuaimat told him all about her discovery,
Zaid stood up "we have to tell the king, the authority"
"No, Zaid i have a plan, arresting him won't be a payback, the suitable payback is for him to loose everything, everything of ours, we are going to collect" said Nuaimat
"What" he inquired,
"Lets make him pay for what he did to us" said Zohra
"That man is dangerous, he won't take it lightly if we go to him to hand over what is ours" said Zaid,
"Who said, we will go to him heads on, av got plans" she said,
"This is crazy, what is your plan, as far as i am concern you are new to all this" he said
"Lets hear the plans first" suggested Muayad,
"What plans, just the four of us against him" he said, Nuaimat chuckled and said,
"I have my plans, and it won't be just the four of us, we have El Amin his trusted friend, and his son Harees, besides after my discovery, i made sure all his wannabes are now my Allies, Grandpa Yusuf, uncle Jabeer, Uncle Ahmed, and they are among his board of directors in Qatar and four more of his board out of 10, they are one out of my many ways to infiltrate his Board,
and apart from that, all 16 business partners of Uncle Hamood, i have managed to get to talk to 5 out of them with El Amin making 6, i was carefully to go after those who work with him but at the same time think him too cunny or want him down"
"And you are sure they won't squeal it to him" asked Zaid,
"They have a lot to gain if they support us, and have the same lot to loose if they side with him, because i have already alerted somone powerful to get ready for what i have on Hamood and if that gets out, Hamood goes down and they loose alot, you see Zaid, Al Zayman and co's money don't only come from the two company, i don't know Zaid if you can recall, there was a time the two company's income faced a huge loss of money, and then the company came back on its feet better than ever,
you see Greedy uncle used the companies money for four good years to set up 16 large comapanies at that time, now these companies, he placed those so called 16 bussiness partners of his as the CEO including El Amin"
"This is insane, why did he make them CEOs, it means it's basically theirs" said Zaid
"And with the money of the companies he killed for" said Muayad
Nuaimat chuckled and said "well the thing is that, he made them CEOs as a camouflage, but in the heart of the each company he owns 60% of the companies profit while the rest goes to them, deep down i think he feared this from you"
"But when something comes up no one will believe the companies are Al Zayman's not their's" said Zohra
"Uncle Hamood is cunny, he has documents to prove the companies are Al Zaymans, thats why the six i contacted want him down, besides i was careful to make contact with just six because when Hamood goes down we have ten, companies to our name, while the six i suggest we hand over the full documents of ownership to them as a gift"
She then wave a stack of papers, "this are our prove the companies are Al Zayman's" she said,
"How did you get that" asked Zaid
"His safe, thanks to Harees"
"Harees stole it from his father's safe" asked Muayad, and Zohra and Zaid nodded,
"But why will he do that, i mean to raise companies like that" asked Zaid,
"He wants the money, why do you think Hamood send down Zaid to Nigeria, he doesn't want you to know about the underground incomes"
"How did you get all this" asked Zaid,
"The very moment the need for vengeance consumed me, i know how to get things my way" said Nuaimat,
"So now how do we start" asked Muayad,
"Well its Ramadan in a week, so lets lie low till after the fast, the eid and Zohra's engagement" said Nuaimat, all three agreed to her suggestion,
"My first move was to take down majority of his pawns, which i did, my second move now will be, after the engagement party, we will be done on getting investors for the new era of our company" she said
"Why new, the present investors seem good" said Muayad,
"Uncle Hamoods handpicked, we can't trust them" said Nuaimat
"Then what" inquired Zohra,
"Then after that, i will let it slip to one of his business partners on what we plan, i will make sure his PA, gets to make him summon up his business partner and his members of his B.O.D, that day we make our appearance" she said with a smirk,
Zaid was looking at Nuaimat clearly impressed, "i have a ten minutes meeting with my department before the BOD meeting" said Nuaimat and with that she excused herself and went out.
"Isnt she a genius" asked Zaid,
"Yes, i hope she doesn't get us killed" said Zohra,
"No, we have to trust her if we are on board with this, and besides she said she has a backup plan if everything goes out of our way" said Muayad, the two nodded and then Zohra excused herself and head out.
During the BOD meeting Zaid Introduced Zohra, Nuaimat and Muayad as owners of the company also, so after the meeting, Nuaimat was up in her office already working for almost three hours , she was now going through the list of some foreign business partners, when there was a knock, "come in" she called without looking up, it was one of the young directors, "yes" she asked looking up,
"Am Hussein Shaman director of....... "how may i help you" she interrupted him,
"I wonder if you are busy" he said,
"I am, so thank you" she said dismisvely, just when Zaid came in, "yes" she asked Zaid,
"What are you doing here" he asked Hussein who was almost his age mate, "just.......... "she is a no go area, now get going" added Zaid, "yess boss" added Hussein and hurriedly left the office,
"Yes" she inquired again,
"Lets go down for lunch" he said,
"Am not hungry" she said without looking up at him,
"You have too....... "please Ya Zaid, am not hungry, am busy already" she said coldly and now looking at him, he sighed and went out, she then rolled her eyes and quickly stood up, and followed him out,
"I hear they serve nice Kebabs in this cafeteria" she called after him, he stopped on the spot and then turned with a smile,
"An hour break will do me no harm" she added and walked up to him, he smiled and decided to lead the way,
They reached the cafeteria and decided to have the same thing, as they ate they talked about random things,
"What about us Aima" he asked suddenly
She looked at him and said "what"
"I still love you, i dont know if you still love me, but i just hope you will forgive and understand me, i love you so much Aima, i never meant to hurt you " he said with sadness, Nuaimat sighed and said "lunch was nice, thank you, i have to get going" with that she quickly stood up and left the Cafeteria and headed straight to her office, she was surprise to see the door open and on entering she saw Naomi going through the files on the table, and now she even opened up Nuaimat's bag and brought out her two phones, she was about to start with the i phones when Nuaimat said
"Ummm...i have to use my finger print, both phones need that, this finger in particular" she was calm and was evening waving her index finger,
"Um.....ummm.
"It's owkey, i didn't meant to startle you, i wished you get what you wanted but i just couldn't let you suffer, i just have to tell you the passkey to both phones, so i will say Ouch!!!!!, hardluck next time" said Nuaimat walking calmly inside the office,
"I was....... "you were doing what a planted spy should be doing" concluded Nuaimat,
"What.....what do you mean spy" asked Naomi now stammering,
"Come on Naomi, you will be clocking thirty in two months, why let yourself be a pawn, i thought you were to chicky for that" said Nuaimat with wink,
"I don't know what you are talking about" lied Naomi,
"Yeah, you chose not to, but anyways Av got a message for the person who send you, and to his other pawns like Hussein Shaman, Derek Ralph, Samuel Olutoyin, Hafiz Ahmed and Susan Echa in this company , life is a game of chess, and in this game i gladly welcome him on board but let him know the king and queen of bath sides are taken, so i place him as a black Bishop, and tell him, something is about to go down, and when it does, he wont like the outcome, also tell him of i were him i will forfiet, you may leave now Naomi Av got work" she ended dismisvely, Naomi quickly left the office.
"Who planted her by my brother, is it Hamood" asked Zohra on the ride home after work,
Nuaimat was the one driving, "no, a greedy bussiness partner of Hamood, who wants to have updates on everything going on in this company, he is a Nigerian and the well known former minister of Aviation, Saima's father and guess what he is among the ones going down"
"I have to alert Ya Zaid" said Zohra
"They are of no harm, let them be for a while, after all i love playing games" said Nuaimat with a smirk.
Naomi was now, seated with the former minister in his office that night, with the people Nuaimat called,
"She said i should tell who send me, and your other pawns like Hussein Shaman, Derek Ralph, Samuel Olutoyin, Hafiz Ahmed and Susan Echa, that life is a game of chess, and in this game she gladly welcomes you on board but i should let you know the king and queen of both sides are taken, so she places you as a black Bishop, and that something is about to go down, and when it does, you won't like the outcome, she also said if she were you, she will, she will forfeit"
"How did she know about you and the rest linking to me" he asked
"She is wiser than you think she is, i think she knows how to keep an eye on What is hers, am scared sire, what if she tells Hamood or worse Zaid " said Naomi
"I know you like that boy, but that is not my intrest" he said sighed and added,
"I don't think she won't but for now tell the rest to lay low and so should you, besides she is just a little girl who am sure got her hands on this issue, but she should know this Nigeria, she doesn't know how to run anything, she is just a kid, " he said and was now twisting his moustache, he eyed her bit and said NO FLEX ZONE.
