"Your schedule is full today, after the Board Meeting, ocular visit to Kalahari resort then you have to meet with Jeremy's Psychologist in the afternoon at the ranch, he would be there to see Jeremy first." It was Jacob, standing in front of me while I was sitting in my office.

"What time is the meeting with the Psychologist?" I continued reading a document in my hand without looking at him.

"At four, I already asked Aunt Beatrice to prepare."

"I was trying to set up the meeting here, but Jeremy refused to come here, he wanted to stay at the ranch, it is also convenient for you because you only have a free time today to have this meeting, your schedule is full until next week."

"Will my schedule make it at four?"

"Yes, you're using the chopper going to Kalahari, then from there to the Ranch, from the arrangement, you should make it on time."

"Errrrrr, and there's one thing..." Jacob hesitated.

"What?" I looked up and directly at him.

"She will be there."

Jacob was trying to read my face, but did not say anything. He turned his back and left my office with a faint smile.

.................................


She would be there...

The last time I saw her was at the hospital, and since then, her face occupied my senses day and night.

It came a bit of a shock to find out that she was the woman Jeremy mentioned non stop as "Kel" even before he fell ill. His constant womanizing never gave me the impression that one day he would really fall for someone. I knew that he was crazy about her,  but i thought it was nothing serious, or was it? He even have her followed with his bodyguards just to make sure that others would not come near her.

When I saw her the first time in my bathroom, I did not realize that she was "Kel", there were a lot of women Jeremy had before but it was the first time he personally arranged some friends to be at the ranch, from the report I got, he invited his friends that day to see him and arranged a car to pick them up, I thought that she was just one of those friends and not the "Kel" he was referring to at that time.

Even the incident after her gig at the party, I did not have a single clue, I'd even ask Henry, my driver to follow her and made sure that she reached home safely, thinking that that bastard Andrew would follow her all the way to her home. That night, I knew that there was something wrong with me, normally, I would never bother, nor would I ever give a damn,  in my 32 years of existence, I have set enough rules for myself, especially when it comes to women, and that night, I  was also the one who  broke my own rule.  She had drawn me into her for a reason that I could not understand.  And I did not even know that she was actually  Jeremy's 'Kel'.

I never interfered in Jeremy's personal life, the same way that he never interfered with mine. So, whoever women he messed around with, I would never make it my business, unless, he had put himself in trouble or needed my help for something. However, Jeremy's every move must be reported back to me, with his carefree and impulsive personality, he had  involved himself in a lot of mischiefs in the past, and I had to act as his older brother to clean up his mess all the time.
