Hello, hello… hellooo!" Before Celine replied, the call was hung up. "Ergghhh." "What's going on?" Drake was confused to find her mood changed to be angry. "What can I do for you at this moment?" "I won't do anything for this guy!" Celine grumbled as placed her phone down. "Damn you!" "Your boy? Does he do something to hurt you?" Drake cleaned his mouth using a napkin as he got done with his meal. "Drake, can I put my trust in you?" Celine eventually made her mind to speak up. "I… actually… I'm pregnant and need many things for me and my baby. So…" "You need money." Celine nodded. "Yes, I do but above all… his responsibility. He said that he would marry me if I'm pregnant with his baby. But he disclaimed it's his baby. He even gives me hush money and gets me to keep it under wraps."Celine had no choice but to tell him as she should address her needs during pregnancy. When she knew that the new CEO was Drake, she had been thinking to ask Drake for help after Aaron disclaimed her

A knock came on the door, while Drake and Aaron were going on about the unfinished money case. Sammy rushed to come in and stopped before Drake. "We found out the cause of your accident, sir. It wasn't a common case but someone has designed it to harm you."Again, a shocking news hit Drake that an unknown man targeted him to be shot. It caused his chest to tighten since his breath hitched. Aaron was also stunned and hard to swallow in that he couldn't believe that someone had the same will with him, too. He smiled slightly since someone made his plan easier. Unfortunately, Sammy incidentally caught his expression. "Do you know who the perpetrator was?" Aaron asked, looking wondering as if he was concerned. "Yes, sir. That person was Miss Diana.'' Aaron and Drake were startled that Diana–for Drake–was beyond imagination to get her own back on him, except her parents wanted him to pay just because of the intrusion he made on their anniversary party. Then, Aaron bursted out laughing

"I got a call from Amanda that you asked her to transfer to your bank account for gambling debt. How dare you spend money on the casino!" Jessie spoke loudly, and her cane was pointed at him that shocked Drake and Aaron. "You can't use Brannet's property for your prive!""That's not the company's own, but my royalty from the auction I won. Our client has transferred the money to the company's bank account, so Amanda just needs to forward it to mine," Aaron replied in an angry face. Drake restrained tightly his lips to smile watching a mother and her son arguing that he had never seen before. Afterwards, Aaron took his phone to dial Amanda. "Have you transferred my money?" "I-I'm sorry, sir, I didn't get approval from Mrs. Jessie." "Transfer it now or you get fired!" Aaron rang off the call after snapping on the phone, staring at Jessie sharply before getting out of the room with his anger. Jessie sighed deeply, then talked to Drake. "Don't let him get the money. He doesn't deserv

"Everything is in fix, sir. Rooney has also been nursed. As per Lord's orders, we did not take him to the hospital. I've also gagged him from talking about your power." Drake nodded happily. He himself did not suffer any injuries from the incident other than his body having to adapt to the fire funeral slowly. All the guards who were witnesses were not allowed to tell anyone about Drake's power. The warehouse burned down because Drake could not control the output of his fire power. The burning flames kept growing after they all exited the old building. "The engagement party was rather disrupted, the guests were whispering about Miss Diana the whole time. The Johnsons were very upset," another bodyguard said. Drake's smile widened even more, satisfied to make the guests curious with the hints he said. "So?" "They're having trouble explaining it to the guests," the bodyguard continued. "And they denied it, sir," added the other guard. Drake's smug smile faded away just as the newl

Amidst the sound of the music, Rooney came to join them in congratulating the spouse, passionately hugged Nicole and Abraham. He turned around, was stunned to see Drake looking completely different. He could not believe his eyes when he saw Drake looking like a rich man. “Drake? Is that you?” Rooney's voice sounded very surprised. "How are you, Rooney?" Drake smiled happily at Rooney like a dog in heat looking at an unretrievable bone, but he also felt his breath catch at the mention of auntie to Nicole. Rooney neglected his question. “What are you doing here? How can you wear that costly dress and come here? You know, you can’t come in if you don’t have the invitation card and show it to the security. This party is only for rich people, not for moneyless people like you.” Drake hated to hear the repeated question and asperse because they should have known who he was now. “I know.” However, Rooney grabbed Drake's suit quickly. "You must have stolen those clothes and sneaked in her

“I have two sons whom I expect to continue managing our company. They two are my heirs, but they're bad in organizing business to keep it going fine. They often spend much money to have fun, but spend little time at work. I should’ve had my pension today and put my company in their trust. But I’m not lucky cos they almost let me go bankrupt.” Quiet. “That’s why I ask you to be the CEO. It will surely attract their attention to change the bad habits and be more serious in work cos they’re gonna think their position would soon be replaced by someone else. A business only needs a capable person to sit down on the chair,” Jessie knocked on the desk three times. “Remember, Child, life is hard but business is crueler. You’ll get a lot of things from this plan. You can say I take some benefits from you.” Still silence “You don’t have much time to think about it, Son. If you think it’s temporary, just take this chance to repay them to their deen. Cos after that, you won’t hold that positio
