It was already a week since the annual conference was held. The tiny feminine voice of the newscaster reading out the daily news for the day from the television filled the sitting room. The picture of Davies Williams and Matt Walker in handcuff was shown at the left side of the screen, the pictures were being placed side by side. “…the properties of Mr. Matt Walker were being taken into possession by the government yesterday after he had been found guilty of the crimes he was charged with yesterday in the court.” Robert walked into the sitting room clad in a singlet that clung onto his body to the sweat that he was covered in, the lower part of his body was covered in a pair of long jogging pants and he had a short towel hung around his neck. He took off the towel that was hanging around his neck and wiped the sweat off his face with it. He ignored what the newscaster was saying and walked towards the refrigerator in the kitchen, he pulled it open and take out a chilled bottle of w

Robert stood with the doctor, standing outside Hazel’s ward with his hand buried in his pocket, staring at her through the huge window. “…her heart rate and her vitals are normal” the doctor in charge of her said, pushing his glass up the bridge of his nose, he seem a bit intimidated while talking to Robert. “We will continue to keep an eye on her sir” he said with his head bent low. “Is there no chance for her to get consciousness yet?” Robert asked, his hands still staring at Hazel that was laying on the bed with her eyes closed like she was deep in sleep, clad in a hospital gown, she had something passed to her body and connected to the life support machine. “I am sorry sir but there is still no hope, the possibility remains the same. It’s still a 60-40 percent chance that she is going to come out of that state that she is, if the cure is not found. The chances might not even change at all, it’s going to remain the same as far as we continue with our treatment here” The doctor

Just agree to the deal, bastard. Lucy stared at the both of them, getting impatient already for waiting for Antonio’s reply, she gritted her teeth in anger. The anger slowly wiped off her face and was replaced by a smile as she heard him finally say the word that she had been dying to hear. “Fine, I lost. Don’t upload it, I’ll sign over seventy percent of the business over to you” Antonio said through gritted teeth, it was hard to accept but he had to anyway, it was a prize he had to pay. The better choice here is to have thirty percent of the industry than losing everything. He sighed in defeat, his lips slowly stretched to a smile, “This is the feeling right?” he asked raising his hand up to prevent the sunrays from entering his eyes, he moved it to touch Robert’s face for a bit.He dropped his hand down slowly, his smile disappearing as his hands dropped further down. “It’s a miserable feeling, this feeling of defeat, I can’t stomach it. I thought I will never lose to any human

The Gilgamesh family were gathered in their usual hall for a meeting, they were wondering why they were all summoned her at the same time for this emergency meeting. The room was in a tensed mood immediately Antonio walked in to the room, he had a brooding look on his face as he walked towards his position to seat down gave off an awful vibe, no one dared to mutter a thing. The hall was so silent despite how many people occupied it, every Gilgamesh family have been called, even those who were on business trips were called back. This gave them all just one thought that something was definitely wrong but they couldn’t quite figure out what it is. They had been chattering before about what could be the issue for the meeting but seeing the look on Antonio’s face now just confirmed their fears that something was wrong. “Phew” Antonio sighed, he raised his head to look at them. They were all looking at him expectedly waiting for him to give the reason why this emergency meeting was c

Jo parked his car in the parking spot in front of the Penfolds industries headquarters, he got off his car, there wasn’t any sign of nervousness or fear on his face.This wasn’t his first time going to top organizations, though, so he expects it to be the same as the others but a part of he could feel a part of him telling him that there is a chance that there will be a difference, but he couldn’t tell what it was going to be, he couldn’t tell if the difference might be a slight one, a calm one or a very wide one in fact. This thought slowly builds up the nervousness that he was trying hard not to feel at all, he still tried to act composed as much as he could with an atom of doubt dwelling at the bottom of his heart that once he pushes the door open, he will come crashing down on his knees. His body moved of their own accord and went straight to the door, his hands pushing it open little by little till it was fully opened and he stepped into the building hoping to fall or exactly l
