Brad stared at Luke, his eyes burning with anger and embarrassment. How the hell did he make so much money within the space of two years?Luke’s gaze roved over his former colleagues.“Do not waste my time. I have other things to attend to today.”They all lowered their gazes and mumbles of “I’m sorry” swept through the small crowd, giving Luke a sense of satisfaction.“And you, Brad. I’m still waiting.”After a moment’s hesitation, Brad trudged forward and stood before Luke. He flashed him an unrepentant glare before lowering his eyes to the ground in a mini bow.“I sincerely apologize for my behavior. I was way out of line and I promise it will never happen again.”Luke didn’t care if Brad actually meant his apology or not. All he cared about was the fact that his enemy had bowed before him. That alone was a victory.Luke gave them one final look filled with disdain before walking out of the office, his gait confident and his head held high. Next time they will think twice before e

William starred on, hatred rising like a bile in his throat as Nina and the church rat continued to behave chummy with one another.His friends tried to encourage him and make him forget about them, but he just couldn’t take it anymore. He stopped his horse abruptly and climbed down. “I’m going home.” He muttered without preamble.“Hey, William. Wait up.” Damon called. “You can’t just give up and let this wretched hog have your girl. What happened to fighting for what is yours?”William gave him a hard look.“Look at them. They look so in love. Nothing can break that. Even I know when to call it quits.”“Hey. Where are you going?” Luke called.William froze, his blood still boiling.“I’m leaving.” He said through gritted teeth, trying to control his temper.“I know you’re worried about the bill.” Mozart sneered at Luke. “Don’t. We’ll clear it on our way out. You can’t possibly afford it.” Then they all turned to leave.Nina lowered her gaze in embarrassment but Luke’s confidence did

“Where are you taking me?” Mrs. Agnes asked with a smile on her lips.“Be patient, Ma’m, we’re almost there.”Luke had finally convinced the doctor to release Mrs Agnes from the hospital after showing proof that he’d hired an entire medical team to see to her care at the new orphanage mansion.They were currently driving to the mansion. Thanks to Rashford, the children were already settled and were being taken care of by nannies appointed by Luke himself. A few minutes later, they arrived at the mansion’s gates and it opened automatically. Mrs. Agnes looked out her window in awe at the beautiful scenery. The mansion had a long driveway as the main building was tucked far inside the compound.The lawns were lush and filled with healthy green grass, while the gardens overflowed with different colours and types of flowers.“What is this place?” Mrs. Agnes asked when they pulled to a stop.Luke got out and went around to pull open her door. He helped her into her wheelchair and wheeled h

Luke walked slowly to the stage, knowing that he was aware of the truth but did not have any means to prove it. The CCTV footage was in his attorney’s custody, and the man didn’t appear to be here yet. “Mr. Luke, do you know that such a wrongful accusation is a punishable offence? Mr. Humsworth here is willing to sue you in court if you fail to withdraw the case.” The reporters bombarded as soon as he climbed the stage. Luke had enough. He was tired of being trampled on by these people. He shot the reporter a glare.“Mr. Humsworth and his company are jointly responsible for the collapse of the orphanage and I can prove it.”Shouts of, “prove it! Prove it!” rent the air.After waiting for ten more minutes and his attorney still failing to show up, the clipboard guy came over to walk him off the stage.“I’m sorry, sir, but you are wasting all our time. You should leave now.”Luke’s heart raced.“Please, just give me…”“We’ve given you more than enough time, sir.” The guy cut in. “Ple

Wilhelm was almost livid with rage. “If you do not explain yourself right this minute, you will lose your job.”His secretary lifted her chin, her lips twisting with disdain.“I’m sorry, but you no longer have the power to fire anyone in this establishment, Wilhelm Humsworth. Only he does.”She stepped aside and revealed a tall, brown haired young man behind her. “Meet your current boss and the new owner of Elites Construction.” She bowed slightly to the newcomer and stepped back to watch the drama unfold.Wilhelm collapsed into his seat as he took in the person before him. From his luxurious shoes and gleaming wristwatch, he could tell that this was one wealthy young man.“Hello, Mr. Humsworth. We meet again.”“L-Luke?” Wilhelm stuttered, his eyes gleaming with disbelief.Luke spread his arms.“In the flesh.”Wilhelm finally recovered from the shock and shifted to a better sitting position, puffing out his chest.“Who the hell let you in here? My attorney had specifically said tha
