The Billionaire can’t forget the poor maid…and his girlfriend went mad! 

You think you can take my man from me?     No, ma. I would never do that.     Vanessa! If anyone is leaving this room today, it won’t be Grace.          You’re choosing a maid over me?     Enough is enough.              I will be pleased.     Good morning, everyone. Good morning, Grace. Did you sleep well?     Very well, thank you.

    Good morning, Mama Margaret. Did you manage to sleep a little better last night?     A little, my dear. Seeing you every morning gives me strength.     Good morning, sir.     Morning.     I hope today won’t keep you too busy.     I’ll try to be home before dinner.     Kenneth, before God calls me home, I only have one wish.

 I want to carry my grandchildren, just once. That would make me the happiest mother.     Mom, please. Not this again.     I’m only asking because I don’t know how much time I have left.     I have a meeting. We’ll talk later.     Good morning, sir.     Morning.     Good morning, sir. Your board meeting starts in 15 minutes.     Move the investors’ meeting to 4:00.

    Yes, sir.     Our profits dropped in the Eastern region. I want solutions, not excuses.     We’re already working on it, sir. You have 48 hours.     Why did it take you so long to open the gate? Do you expect me to wait out here?     I’m sorry, ma’am. I was confirming the vehicle.     The next time you see my car, the gate should already be open.

Come in.     Good morning, ma. I hope I didn’t disturb you.     Not at all, my dear. Come and sit. I brought these for you. I hope you like them. That’s very thoughtful of you. Thank How is your mother? I haven’t spoken to her in a few days.     She’s doing very well, ma. She asked me to greet you specially. She said the two of you must have lunch together soon.

    [laughter]     That sounds just like her.              Tell her I’ll call her this evening. Remember, madam’s meals must always follow the doctor’s instructions. Too much salt is not     ma. I’ll make sure everything is exactly as instructed.     I knew you would. You, bring me a glass of fresh orange juice. And don’t keep me waiting.

    Yes, ma.     This isn’t cold enough.     I’m sorry, ma. I’ll bring another one right away.     You should know these things without being told. Grace, a good character will always shine in the end.     My parents taught me to respect everyone, no matter how they treat me. My mother always says a clean and peaceful home makes people happier.

    And she raised you well. These flowers look beautiful.     Thank you, ma. Fresh ones from the garden this morning.     You’ve brought so much warmth into this home.     I’m happy to be of service, ma. Good morning again, ma.     Oh, Vanessa, come and see what Grace has done with the flowers. Very nice. Grace has such a wonderful eye for little detail.

You’ve become very fond of Grace. She’s respectful, hardworking, and sincere. You’re right. You always sing while you work. It gives me peace, Ma. One day it will brighten someone’s darkest day.              The merger must proceed. Our Q4 projections demand it.     Grace, my dear, could you please bring my medication from my bedroom?     Yes, Ma.

    We need stability.     Mom!     It’s all right, Ma. Please sit down slowly.     Are you sure that’s the right one?     Yes, sir. This is exactly what the doctor prescribed for moments like this.     I’m feeling      much better now.     Please don’t scare me like that again, Mom.     Don’t forget your lunch today.

    I won’t, Mom.     You work too hard.     I’ll see you later.              I will miss you again.     I will be back on time today.     Can I ride with you to the office today?     Of course. Good morning, sir.     Morning.     Good morning, sir. The board members are waiting.     Thank you, Emily.     Looks like another busy day.

    Yes, ma’am.     Our Lagos refinery project is behind schedule.     We’ve had unexpected delays, sir.     I asked for solutions, not explanations.     Sir, your meeting with the international investors begins in 30 minutes.     Has the contract been legal?     Yes, sir. Everything is ready. I thought you could use a break.

    Thank you.     You’ve barely looked at me all morning.     I’ve had a busy day.     I know. I just miss spending time with you.     I’ll make time after work.              Still working? You promised you’d make time for me after work.     I remember. I really      need to finish this tonight.     I don’t like the way you’ve been treating me lately.

If you’re tired of this relationship, just tell me.     It’s not that, Vanessa. This work is important. Please try to understand.          [laughter]     With you, I feel like I can face anything.     And I’ll always be here for you. Olivia, you really broke me.              Why haven’t you washed the clothes I asked you to wash?     I’m sorry, ma.

 Madam asked me to help with something else first.     So, my instructions don’t matter anymore?     I’m sorry, ma.     Dinner is ready. Go and let madam know.     Yes, ma.     Is dinner ready?     Yes, ma.          Good. Please go upstairs and let Kenneth know dinner is ready.     Vanessa would still be with him.     Yes, ma.     Who is it?     It’s Grace, sir.

 Madam asked me to let you know that dinner is ready.     All right. I’ll be there shortly.     Thank you, sir. Kenneth, where’s Vanessa?     I don’t know, Mom. I thought she had already come downstairs.          Did something happen between the two of you?     No, Mom. I’m just tired.     Grace, please go upstairs and ask Vanessa to join us for dinner.

    Yes, ma. It’s Grace, ma. Madam asked me to invite you to dinner.     I’m coming. Thank you, ma. My dear, are you all right?     I’m fine, ma.     You both seem unusually quiet tonight.     We’re all right.     My son, come and sit with me. What is happening between you and Vanessa? I’ve noticed you’re no longer happy around her.

    [sighs]     I introduced Vanessa to you because I believed she could help you heal after Olivia broke your heart. But every day, you seem farther away from her.     I honestly thought I could forget Olivia. But I was wrong. No matter how hard I try, our memories are still here. I can’t pretend they never happened.

    My son, you’re my only child. If you close your heart forever, how will this family continue after us? I keep telling you I want to carry my grandchildren. I don’t know how much time God has given me.     Mom,              please don’t say that. You still have many beautiful years ahead of you.     I pray you’re right.

If Vanessa isn’t the woman you truly want, tell me now. I don’t want to keep giving that young woman false hope. I have a dear friend whose daughter is finishing her studies abroad.     Mom, please don’t rush. I’ll think about everything      you’ve said.     I I to see this house filled with laughter again.              I understand.

I will get going. Olivia. You look beautiful.          You’re saying that because you’re in love.     I’m saying it because it’s true.     Sir, should I pack this one, too?     Pack everything she likes.     You      spoil me too much.     You deserve it.     [laughter]     Happy birthday. Oh my goodness, it’s beautiful.

 Thank you.     [cheering]     Happy birthday, Olivia.     Thank you.     [laughter]     Those were the happiest days of my life.     Who is it?     It’s Grace, ma.     What do you want?     Madam asked me to change sir’s bedsheets, clean the room, and wash the bathroom.     I thought Margaret usually did all that.     Madam said Margaret now has other responsibilities, so this work has been assigned to me.

    Come in.     Good morning, sir.     Good morning.     Madam asked me to clean your room this morning.     All right.     Ready?     Let’s go.     There you are. I’m glad to see you together this morning. Grace.     Yes, ma.     Do it when I’m here. I don’t want people talking unnecessarily.     Yes, ma. I understand.     Grace.

    Yes, ma.     I told you not to enter this room unless I’m here. I’m sorry, Ma. I thought you were here.     Vanessa. She was only doing the work my mother assigned to her.     But I don’t want another woman coming into your room when I’m not here.     She works here.     I was only trying to protect what we have.

    You don’t have to treat people that way.     I’m sorry. I’m sorry for raising my voice.     Let’s just get ready for work.     All right. Ma, I was hoping to visit my family today if you don’t mind.     Of course. Go and see them, but don’t stay too late.     Thank you very much, Ma.     Grace, you’re welcome, my daughter.

    Thank you, Mama.     Come inside.     Dad, how are you feeling today? Dad, these are the medicines the doctor prescribed. Please don’t miss any dose this time.     Thank you, my daughter. You always think of us.     You are my parents. Taking care of you is my responsibility.     to bless you and reward your kindness.

    Amen, Dad. Everything will be all right. Heavenly Father, thank you for keeping my family safe. Lord, I ask you to stretch out your healing hand upon my father and restore his strength. Remove every sickness from his body and give him many more years to live. Please bless my mother for all her sacrifices and continue to provide for our family.

    Amen.     My daughter, continue to be humble, respect everyone, and never stop praying.     I won’t. I’ll come back soon.              I really thought we’d grow old together.     My convocation is next Friday. You’ll come, won’t you?     I wouldn’t miss it for anything.     You always say that.     I promise. Let us review the numbers.

    Sir, the investors have arrived.     My God, Olivia’s convocation.     [applause]     He promised.     Come on, Olivia, pick up. Please answer.     Maybe Kenneth was genuinely busy. I know he’s a good man. He has never      stopped caring for me. But love isn’t only about expensive gifts.     Olivia.     Oh, hello.

    Is everything all right?     I’m fine.     If you ever need someone to talk to, I’m here. Olivia, please don’t be too hard on him. He’s carrying a lot of responsibility.     Some of my friends are engaged to men who run big companies. They still make time for the women they love.     I understand. I’ll talk to Kenneth.

 I’m sure he’ll understand.     I hope so. I really love him. I just wish he could be there when I need him.     What are you doing here?     I came to apologize.     You missed one of the biggest days of my life.     I’m sorry. I wanted to come. The meeting became impossible to leave.     You always have meetings.     Olivia, please give me another chance.

I promise I’ll do better.     One last chance.     You won’t regret it.          [laughter]     This is the Kenneth I missed.              I missed him, too.     Good afternoon, sir.              My fiance needs a beautiful outfit for a wedding.     You’ve come to the right place. What do you think?     You look absolutely beautiful.

    I knew you’d like this one. Thank you.     Seeing you happy makes me happy.              Sir, the Port Harcourt refinery has developed an emergency.     Prepare the jet. I’m leaving now.     Hi.     I have to travel to Port Harcourt immediately. I’m so sorry.     But tomorrow is the wedding.     I know.     You should be here.

    May I join you?     Of course.     I thought Kenneth would be here.     So did I.     You shouldn’t let today ruin your smile.     I’m trying.     Even if Kenneth couldn’t make it, you shouldn’t feel alone.     Thank you.     It’s a little noisy here. Would you like to take a short walk outside?     Okay.              Every woman deserves a man who makes her feel important.

    I’ve never doubted that, but love also needs time.     You’re right. I understand how you feel.     Thank you for keeping me company.     Anytime. You shouldn’t have to go through difficult moments alone.     We need to finalize the budget.     Olivia.     Let us look at page 10. Again.     I’m sorry. The meeting just ended.

Please forgive me.     [sighs]     Good morning, Olivia.     Oh, David. Good morning.     Working on your project?     Yes. It’s taking a lot of my time.     Let me help you.     Thank you.     Kenneth told me how intelligent you are.     He always says nice things about me.     I found these. They might help.     You actually went looking for them?     Of course.

 I couldn’t let you struggle alone.     Thank you.     Come on. Come on. I’ll buy you lunch.     All right.                   Hello, my love.     A friend invited me to her birthday this evening.     That sounds nice.     I was hoping you’d come with me.     I honestly wish I could, but today’s meeting may run late.     I understand.     One more meeting, then everything will be better.

I won’t lose you. Yes. I’ll be there tonight. So will Olivia.     Olivia, I’m so happy you came. I wouldn’t miss your special day. Where’s Kenneth? He had an emergency business meeting.     Looks like we’re both alone tonight.     Looks that way.     Mind if I keep you company?     I don’t mind.     Mhm. So, how is your project coming?     It’s almost finished.

      I’m relieved.     I knew you could do it.     Thank you.     You’re thinking about Kenneth again.     I just wish he were here.     I understand.      This place is getting too noisy. Would you like to get some fresh air outside?     Yes, that sounds better.     You deserve someone who makes you smile every day.     Kenneth does.

He’s just always busy.     I understand.              This isn’t good.     I thought you said the cafe was nearby.     It usually is, but I just remembered it closes early on weekends. There’s a beautiful hotel lounge ahead.     We can have coffee there instead. Okay.              They’re not going toward the city cafes.

What is David doing?     I thought we were only having coffee.     The hotel has one of the best lounges in Lagos. Come on.     All right.     This doesn’t look right. Good evening. I’d like a private suite.     A suite? I thought we were going to the lounge.     The lounge is very crowded tonight. We’ll be more comfortable upstairs.

    I don’t think that’s necessary.     Please trust me. It’s just to talk somewhere quiet.     Excuse me.      The gentleman who just checked in, he’s my friend. I forgot to give him something important.              Do you have a room on the same floor as David?     Yes, that floor will be fine.     Open the door.

             Kenneth.     David. I know you’re inside. Open the door.              We did see you.          Kenneth, please. It’s not what you think. Kenneth, please forgive me.     [laughter]     So, this is how it ends. I gave you everything. Why, Olivia?     Welcome sir.

    Kenneth, you’re just coming home?     Yes, Mom.     What happened? My son, talk to me.              Mom, it’s over. Olivia betrayed me.     [sighs and gasps]          What did you say? My son, my son, you didn’t deserve this.     I trusted      both of them, my best friend and the woman I should spend the rest of my life with.

             They destroyed everything. From today, I don’t want anything      to do with love again. My work is enough for me. Olivia, you really killed something inside me.                   The dinner is ready. Vanessa, dear, please go upstairs and call Kenneth.     All right, Mom. Dinner is ready.              Everyone is waiting.

Dinner is ready.     Leave me alone. I’m not hungry.     Kenneth, you haven’t eaten anything. Please, just come      downstairs for a few minutes.     I said I’M NOT HUNGRY. LEAVE this room now.          [snorts]     Vanessa, what happened?     He he asked me to leave. He shouted at me.     Huh? My son, it’s Mom.     Come in.

    My son,      what happened? Why did you send Vanessa away?     Mom, it’s nothing.     You also refused dinner. You haven’t eaten since afternoon.     I’m not hungry. Please, Mom. I just want to be alone.     All right. Rest then. What has become of you?          Madam?              Madam! Madam! HELP! SOMEBODY HELP!     MOM! MOM! PREPARE THE CAR. NOW.

MOM. Please open your eyes. Please don’t leave me. Please stay with me. Mom, please stay with me.     Kenneth. She’ll be all right.     Lord. Please save Madam Angela.     Doctor, how is my mother?     We have stabilized her condition, but she is still very weak. The next 24 hours are very important.     Thank you, doctor.

    Thank you, Jesus.     Mom, I am sorry. Please stay      with me. Mom.     My son.     Mr. Matthews,      the doctor would like to speak with you.     I’ll be right back, Mom.     Please have a seat, Mr. Matthews.     Doctor, please tell me the truth.              Your mother’s condition is very delicate.

 Tonight’s collapse was triggered by severe emotional stress. If this continues,      another attack could be much worse. She needs peace.              She needs happiness. Anything that causes her prolonged emotional distress must be avoided. Doctor, I’ll do whatever it takes. I don’t want to lose my mother. That is exactly what she needs.

She needs peace. She needs happiness.          [snorts]     My son,     I’m here, Mom.     My son, promise me something.          Anything, Mom.     Just let me see you happy again.     I promise.                   Thank you, Grace.     You’re welcome, Ma. Ma, this one is after breakfast, and this is the one the doctor said you shouldn’t miss.

Lord, thank you for healing Madam Angela. Father, please heal Mr. Kenneth’s heart. Give him peace again.      And bring into his life the woman you have chosen for him. A woman who will truly make him happy.                   Sir, I’m done.     All right. Thank you. Why do I keep noticing her? No. She’s just a maid.

    I’m so happy we’re spending time together as a family. We should do this more often, Mom.     Thank you.     You’re welcome, sir. I was thinking, maybe next weekend we could all go out together.     That sounds fine. So, where would you like us to go?     Anywhere you like.                        My dear, come and sit.

 Mom, I’ve been thinking, very soon Kenneth and I will be husband and wife. I want to begin learning how to take care of Kenneth properly. If you don’t mind, I would like      to start cleaning Kenneth’s bedroom myself.     My dear, that is wonderful. You care about my son. Grace!     Yes, ma.     Grace, from tomorrow, you no longer need to clean Kenneth’s bedroom.

    Yes, ma. I understand.          Come in. Vanessa?     Good morning. I’ll be cleaning your room from today.     Where is Grace?     Mom asked her to stop cleaning your room. I’ll be taking care of it from now on.     Okay. Grace always kept this room spotless.     Your father has collapsed again.     I’m coming right now, Mama.

Please, my father has been rushed to the hospital. May I go and see him?     Go quickly. Take care of your father. Don’t worry about the work here.     Thank you, Ma.     He needs treatment      immediately. Here are the details.                   This bathroom isn’t clean. Mama Margaret, where is Grace?     She traveled home yesterday.

 Her father became critically ill.     Is he all right?              The doctors are still treating him.     I understand.     You’re back.     Why did you stop Grace from cleaning my room?     Vanessa said she wanted to start taking care of your room herself. I thought it would make both of you closer.     She’s not doing it well.

 The room is always untidy.     Then I’ll ask Grace to continue after she returns.     Thank you, Ma.     Come in.     Good morning, Ma.     Welcome back, Grace. How is your father?     The doctor said he has a good chance of recovering once his treatment begins.     Tell me, what is happening?     Ma, thank you so much.

 My family will never forget your kindness.     Come in.     Good morning, sir.     Grace. You’re back?     Yes, sir. Madam asked me to resume cleaning your room.     I’m glad to see you. How is your father now?     He’s much better now. The doctors have started his treatment.     That’s good to hear. How long has your father been battling this illness?     For several years, sir, but we’re trusting God.

    I believe he’ll recover.     Amen.     Grace? What are you doing here? I thought you stopped cleaning this room.     Ma, Madam Angela asked me to resume today.     When did she send you? Leave this room immediately.     I’m sorry, Ma. I was only obeying Madam’s instruction.     Vanessa! Don’t you dare touch her.
