Chapter 46 Ben Mad Again

A nock on the door brought

back the two lovers to reality.

“What? Ken ask the servant.”

“Your dad wants to see you.”

“Gina looked at ken who looked

 back at her, so quick?”

“Go.go..go.. Gina push Ken towards

the door.”

“Yes!, thank goodness he is going

 to work yea!!”

Ken left Gina in the room.

“Don’t go anywhere am coming

 right back ok.”

“Ok my love Gina said and Ken

 widening his eyes love? Wow

that sounds good.

Yea just go your dad is waiting

 for you.

“Ok, ken said and left.

“are you sure you are ready to

work Mr. Jackson asked Ken

 because he never thought a day

 like this will come when his son

 will like to work, and ken of all

 people, even though any of his

sons will like to work, he never

thought that person would be ken,

if it was Benjamin he would

 have believe it but this is a

 miracle.

“Now tell me why you want to

 work in my company.”

“Because I think I should be

 more useful to this family or

don’t you think so? He ask his

father, who was surprise at the

 question.

Yes, why not, then you start

 work tomorrow, you are hired.

Yes!, thank you dad, I promise

never to let you down.

I should be going now father.

Sure, you are free to go, see you

 at the office tomorrow.

Or sir,

Ken left his father’s presence

with joy written all over his face.

Am starting work tomorrow ken

announce to Gina, immediately

he enters the room.

Yeaa.. she shouted and hug ken,

then he hug her back, is as if

they have known each other for

 a long time, ken just keep playing

along and trying so hard not to

 talk about something that will

make Gina react and leave his

house in anger again, he doesn’t

want to offend her any further.

So what are you planning to do

 at work for the first day?

I don’t know I have not work

 before, so I don’t know, I guess

 my dad will tell me what to do

when we get to the office.

Yea, my first day at work was

 not difficult because I have be

trained for the work even before

I started.

Really?, my dad have never ask

 me to go to work with him before,

he does all the work himself.

Wow, he must have loved you

 guys so much.

Yea, I guess so. But that doesn’t

mean he should keep everything

away from us till now.

Anyways be glad he has finally

said yes to you working.

Yea, am glad and thanks to you.

Me? Why.

You were the one who motivated

me to work.

Really?

Yea.

Ohh.. that means you own me

one.

Yea, I think so, and thank you

 for coming.

You are welcome.

Well I think I should go, Gina

said but Ken wasn’t willing to

 let Gina go.

Please stay longer, I can’t stay

in this big house along.

But you are not alone, you have

your mother and father, the maids

 and your brother.

I know but all this people you are

 mentioning can’t keep me

 company, I feel different when

 am with you.

I don’t know how my dad will

feel if I stay over in your house.

   "Let me call him and let him

 know you are with me."

No..no..no.. I will do the

calling. Gina said

Really? Thank you.

Gina took her phone and call

 her father informing him she

 will be spending the night at

Ken place.

Just be careful, I don’t want to

 hear any complain.

Yes sir, I will be very careful.

What did he mean by be careful?

Ken ask himself does this man

 think am about to emmm.. No

way.. far be it am not going to do

 anything that she did want to

do, ken keep telling himself and

smiling.

And why are you smiling? Gina

 ask ken when she drop the call.

Nothing I was just amuse by your conversation.

Ok, so what’s funny about it.

I mean why is your father telling

 you to be careful? Did he think

 am going to eat you all up?

No… he was just concerned.

Hmm. Don’t worry I will go gentle

on you.

What? Will you stop that? Hahaha

 oh.., mine you are sure a bad boy.

Really? Come here let me show

you how bad I can be. He got up

 to catch Gina but she ran and

 they start running round ken’s

room.

What! He can’t do that, ben foam

 with anger, I have been waiting

for so long for him to call me on

 board but no, he always favor’s

ken over me.

Stop it ben his mother said.

Don’t tell me to stop, I will not

allow that to happen.

Will you listen to me ben, he

 mother yell at him.

What are you saying mom? That

I should keep quite while ken

takes over everything?

And who said he is taking over

everything?

Can’t you see the way everything

 is going, dad always favor’s ken

and his mother.

That’s not true, if there is

anything ken will ever take, it

 will be his own share. So you

don’t have to worry about him

taking over everything. Beside I

will take to your father this night.

You better talk to him oo, before

 I do something all of us will regret,

he warns his mother and walk out.

When did I raise a son like ben?

His mother start wondering

 because ben is gradually turning

 into a monster, I must do

something before things get out

of hands, I started this whole

thing and I have to put an end to

 this hatred ben needs to

understand that ken is his brother

 and Mr. Jackson must help me

 to stop this now.

Ben nock at ken’s door interrupting

the lover’s moment.

Yes how may I help you ken ask

 ben when he open the door.

You can’t help me, but am here

to tell you that whatever you and

 your mother are scheming this

 time will not work just bear that

 in your mind.

If you don’t have anything

important to tell me just leave

my present ken told ben and

close the door but ben push the

 door open.

You need to watch your back bro.

Whatever.. ken said and close

the door with force then he

 remember that the door was once

pull off by ben but he can’t

remember why the door was

 pull off.

Ken are you ok?

Gina got up from the bed to

meet ken at the door.

Am fine, let’s go back, he held

 Gina by the hand and lead her

 back to the position they were

before ben interrupted them.

Ben’s mom visit her husband’s

room the next minute.

My husband please help me in

solving this problem that I created

without knowing.

And what problem are you talking

 about? Mr. Jackson ask surprised.

Is about ben, he has started again.

What did he do this time.

He wants to pick a fight with

ken again.

Over what?

You ask ken to start work

tomorrow but what about ben?

Why did you call him on board

too.

What? Is that a problem with me?

If he want to start work today then

so be it, is that something to

fight over, call him for me, he

 ordered.

Yes dad,

Ben you have been the most

responsible son to me, why do

you want to turn into something

 else?

I am not turning into something

 else, I need my fair share.

Which is? Mr. Jackson ask ben.

I should be the one controlling

the affairs of the company by

now because am the first born

 of this family.

I agreed with you, but thing are

not going to be done that way,

who will control the affairs of the

company will be determined my

me, so you have to be more

 patience with me.

Tomorrow you and ken will be

 resuming to work so get ready.

Ok sir, ben said and walk out of

his father’s room with a long

 face.

What has come over this boy?

Mr. Jackson ask his wife?

Please take it easy on him, I know

 he will change.

You better talk to him, I want

 both of my sons to handle my

 company, I don’t like all this division

 in my house, I think is time for

me to take matters into my hands.

I have wanted for them to grow

 up for so long, but thank

goodness ken is gradually

becoming a man I just hope he

 change for good.

Don’t worry my dear husband

everything will be fine.

I want to take you somewhere

 ken told Gina.

Where are you taking me?

Don’t ask just follow.

Ok,
