Seun leaned comfortably in his chaise lounge, taking gentle sips of his tequila as he waited for information from Jeje. He was confident that after the whole plan, Samuel would be out of his life for good. But now he was stuck waiting for that 'fool' to confirm that the doctors couldn't save Samuel, that's what he hoped for at least.

"Ooo what's taking this guy so long?" Seun picked his phone to call Jeje, but almost immediately his
phone started ringing. It was Jeje
Great!

"Sir Samuel survived but the boy died."

"What?!! Those foolish thugs!! The blood of that boy is in their hands not mine!"

"Look sir! I suggest you forget this whole thing and let this Shola girl go."

"Shut up! How dare you?!" Seun snapped at him. "Now listen, that boy's death can still be useful to us. Tell Mrs. Akande that..."

"Okay sir. But after this, I am not doing anything again for you regarding this case." The officer cut the call soon after.

The smile on his face couldn't help but linger there long enough. His plan was ruined but it was only the beginning of the game for him. He was going to do whatever it took to get Shola into his arms. And she was going to sate all his carnal desires, even if it meant ruining her life for it. He didn't care.

If I try to be all good and caring with her she will still pick that dwarf of a man over me, so I will be the bad guy now. The big bad wolf!
He was right about one thing, Shola would pick Samuel a million times over him. Maybe even more.

Even if Samuel were dead, would Shola pick Seun as her new knight in shining armour?
I doubt.

Having set his new plan into motion, Seun strode to the little bureau in his bedroom. He had some pieces of paper and pencils strewn all over it, of which he snatched a piece each to write.
What now?

I received news about your little boy's death. I must say, I was really hurt by it. It was unfortunate he had to die for his brother, but it's only a universal law. An eye for an eye, a life must go to save another.
Take this as a warning from me, if I see her with him again, he won't be so lucky to survive. My condolences.

As if murdering Jimmy was not enough, he was going to do more if it meant he would get Shola. He picked his phone and quick dialed a number.

"Dora!!!!!" Making his tone as beautiful as it could be.

"Oh cut the act! You and I know you don't miss me." She quickly averted his pretence. "If you aren't calling me for sex, then you need something else, what is it?"

"Okay you got me," Unable to deflect this time. "I need you to help me with sending a message."

"My vote was strongly on sex, but okay." She was always so horny.

Dora was Seun's invisible person. She was everywhere, yet nowhere. She always helped him with money drops when he had to pay his thugs, spying on people and at times even assassination.  She was his connection underground. But she never did anything physically demanding, except sex of course. Like every other female Seun came across, he had studied every inch of Dora's body. Every hill and every valley, especially the ones between her thighs.

"One more thing Dora. Make sure you remove all my fingerprints, I don't want any of this pointing back at me." He was always so careful about his name.

"Okay dear. Just send the package."

"Done!" He quickly disconnected the call.

If I couldn't succeed in taking Samuel away from Shola, I might as well just take Shola away from Samuel.
But this time, Mrs. Akande would be the one doing all the work for him. All he had to do was wait.
