Taking full charge.

Pa. Andrew introduced James to be his grandson, his Parents had labored in this industry before their demise. Their mouth was agape, they were finding it difficult to believe it.

James was dressed in a well-tailored suit in a neutral grey color with matching pants, an elegant shirt, Italian shoes, and a limited wristwatch.

James' entrance, dressing, and composure were breathtaking, everyone was enthralled by him including Matt. He was not aware that his Cousin is the mantra, he lost it this time because the said name cannot be competed with. Mantras was said to have everything at his command.

He wondered where his goons were, they should have at least stopped him when noticed him or had they been ambushed. He could not think straight, he promised to check on them immediately after the meeting.

His goons were seen in a locked underground room shouting for help, James armed men were seen guiding the entrance. The personnel were able to round them off last night, without any escaping they captured them all and brought them to the underground room.

James introduced himself to the board members and asked for their cooperation. He just had a few words to tell them and that's all. It was followed by an applause, Pa. Andrew Secretary led them to the conference room, where Journalists and some news outlets handlers were waiting.

The industry handover has spread like wildfire in the forest, the journalists and other news outlets were there to cover it. The press conference begins immediately after they have settled on their chairs.

"Chairman we were told you have handed over the affairs of the industry."

"Yes, I did."

"What is his relationship with you?"

"He is my grandson."

"Why did do hand it over to him, is it because he is an expert in the industry

"Who will be the industry Vice Chairman?"

"Well, that's left for the Mantras to decide." Chairman, thank you for your time.

"The present Chairman, can we meet you."

"Am James Andrew popularly known as The Mantras of the entertainment industry and am engaged not searching."That name and face rang a bell, and one of the reporters was shocked. She texted her friend already about the revelation.

"Can we get to know her?"

"No, not yet," Thank you for your time Chairman. The press conference was rounded off, Pa. Andrew and James were ushered into their office.

The young ladies and stars in the city can not but swoon at his personality but are greatly disappointed when they learn he is engaged. One person is not willing to give up though, she going to try her best to get his attention at the dinner party tonight.

Joy sat up from the bed and was just regaining strength and health, she had slept for a long period. She left her room downstairs. Ms. Gloria took hold of her and they returned to her room. She asked James he told her, he left for work, she helped her take care of her needs like bathing, and feeding, and returned to sleep after that as she was just regaining strength.

It was evening and Oriental Suites and Hotel was already busting with melodies and different personalities. The dinner party arrangements are beautiful and modern, the Table setting is with formal tablecloth, fine china and glassware, napkins and placemats, and centerpieces.

She walked towards James and held him unaware, making him flinched a bit. She introduced herself, they chatted for a moment. James excused himself to meet with other people. The master of the Ceremony steps onto the stage and motions for everyone to settle down. James settled down with family, he greeted everyone on the table politely.

The master of the ceremony started by acknowledging the shareholders and investors that have partnered with the industry in the past. He also recognized some of the stars of the industry and invited the face of the industry, a renowned star actress of the industry to come give a short speech.

He asked them to continue guarding the room, he needed to unravel the Identity of Mr. Horward why would People be after him?

Amanda was seen pacing up and down the hotel rooms looking out for James, if only she could win him over with s*x tonight how sweet would that be. Unfortunately for her James was nowhere to be found.

Matt Andrew left for his villa to get the message that gave him the shock of life when he was told that Mr. Howard was in the city in one hospital lying on the bed. He asked them to take care of him, that the secret must not be let out not now that James is in town. When his wife heard she was terrified and asked her husband to move fast on the matter.

"How did that son of a b***h, made it alive."
