Things has been really good for Lola for the past few weeks. She smile more, a d always seems happy, yes she is happy, very happy. Leon had been the best man to him, still acting as her daughter 's nanny and their cook for the night, life was beautiful this day. It wasn't only her feeling this way Gad (Leon) also seems very happy this days always smiling, Jimi had noticed his cousin strange and sudden happiness, he was very surprised their stone cold and emotionless Gad was starting to look more calm and less frighten and the one that surprised Jimi the most was the strange smile Gad always has on his face while he Stare at nothing in particular as if deep in thought. Jimi had tried to find out what really happened to his cousin brother to make him be in such good mood for days , but Gad won't spit it out, though Jimi is convinced it must be became of his secret Miss Lola, but there was no way for him to be sure of it.
About a week ago, all the families that had refused to work with the Toby's are now actively working with them including those that has never work with them before. The most intreasting part is that Gad was able to get the Toby's family permission from the government to move their gas and oil to other neighbouring countries to sell, even Ford was surprised at how easily Gad could do that "The top families power can not be underestimate" Ford had said. Ford took credit for all this and it was easy for him to become the new patriarch of the Toby's family.

TADE TOBY VILLA
Tade Toby walk around his courtyard with his hand behind his back, it is obvious he is deeply in thought. Railey Toby, his wife stood few feet from him watching her husband pace around the courtyard.
"What are you thinking?" Came Railey's voice to her husband.
Tade turn around surprised to hear and see his wife. "When did you get here?" He asked
"Few minutes ago" Railey replied as she close the distance between them. "Tell me, what are you thinking about?" Railey asked again.
"Nothing" Tade replied dismissively.
"Are you thinking about Ford?" She asked "about how he took your position from you, are you thinking about what to do?" She held his arm "cause you must do something husband, you must"
Tade slide her hands off him. "Yes I'm thinking about Ford, but not on how to take revenge on him, afterall he is my brother and was able to solve the family problem "
Railey face broke into anger but she held it in. "What then are you thinking about?" She asked.
"I'm thinking about how easily it was for Ford to make all our problems go away, as if he was the one who caused it." Tade replied.
"Are you saying he might create the problem for the family and solved it to be the hero and gain the position of patriarch?" Hos wife asked.
"Yes, that's what I'm saying." Tade confirmed.
"I disagree, even if he wants to he don't have the power to create such problem for the family" Railey pointed out.
"Not if he as the backing of someone very powerful " Tade differed.
"You mean like the Gadon's family?" Railey asked suspiciously.
"Exactly " Tade confirmed
"What about what happened at the party?" Railey asked still finding it hard to accept her husband believe.
"That might have just been coincidence, I personally don't think grandma Gadon is that petty" Tade replied, and now Railey is more convinced Ford was the problem all along.
