The Series Of My Life - Season 1 - Episode 121

21. Jennifer May Go
” Madam Grace, do you still want Jennifer back” I said on the phone as soon as she picked the call.
” Who be this” Madam Grace asked.
” Stop asking silly questions” I fired back on the phone.


Behind me, Jennifer was hauling insults at me.
” Solomon, na God go punish you. You useless man. So you want to send me back after using me. You devil” Jennifer kept abusing me.
” Solomon na you, where you dey” Madam Grace asked excitedly, she must have thought that her Olokun had started work on Me finally.
” We are still in Porto. I will give her back to you but you must promise not to punish her. You know she is a kid” I said.
” I don’t want to go back to her, she will kill me” Jennifer was shouting behind me.
” I will not punish her, just send her back to me” Madam Grace begged.
” She will come back, let me just calm her down” I said and cut the line.
Jennifer and I looked at each other and laughed. Madam Grace had taken the bait. The plan was to lure her and her remaining thugs to Porto. It will give me some time to finish my business in Lisbon.


It remained Jose and Nuno. Their own case was a minor one.

Madam Grace had spread a bigger net to catch us. She had employed the help of many Nigerians who knew Jennifer very well. She knew that if they caught Jennifer, she would lead them to me.

As for Jose and Nuno, they were the only two who had seen my face. It was possible that there were others in their own small group but I doubted if they could identify me. It was only two of them that could identify me.
The plan was to find a way to send both of them to Porto too, Just like I was going to send Madam Grace. I needed all three of them out of Lisbon for Atleast 5 hours.

The only place I knew in Lisbon where I could buy flight tickets with my expected permit was very close to Madam Grace’s Afro shop.
The travel agent was a Ghanaian. I didn’t want to risk using the permit to buy ticket from a Portuguese travel agent.
