"Wai... Wait, you mean the estate I'm residing in?" Rex stuttered, his voice oscillating."Exactly, you heard me correctly," the old man replied.Rex's jaw dropped upon hearing this; he never knew the apartment he had been paying millions for was linked to his grandfather!"Well, it's still going in the same pocket, so I'm not losing anything," he mumbled after feeling he had been spending money living as a tenant on his estate."But you never told me you have any property somewhere near the campus; how and when did you acquire the estate?""Well, it's weird to say that I don't even know all my properties in my memory; that was why I pressured you to take the lead so it wouldn't be scattered or others would reap it after I may have died," he replied, gently hitting his fingertips on the desk."So how did you get the information, Grandpa?"The old man chuckled for a while before glaring back at him. "You did not notice Jackson's absence since you arrived here, right?" he questioned."Oh

"Grandpa, are you done dressing? We need to go to his house early in order to meet him. You know he is a businessman, too. Regardless of being a manager in the company I just purchased, he may have other renowned companies under his name secretly." Rex said, as his grandpa was taking much longer than expected to dress."Almost done, Son! I'll be out in a jiffy," his grandfather remarked.Rex decided to keep himself busy while waiting for the old man since he had refused to dress faster. He sat on the sitting room chair and brought out his phone. He unlocked it, connected his headset, and started watching his newly purchased comedies from his favorite comedians.As his mind was glued to the short videos, he did not even realize when his grandfather came out and sat opposite him.The old man thought Rex was doing something important, so he decided not to disturb him. Unbeknownst to him, Rex was waiting for him with the videos."Are you not yet true to what you're doing?" Mr. Alphonsus s

"But sir, aren't you supposed to visit first so you can put your policy in place and let us know what you think of Polite? If we just continue, it can cause trouble between us," Mr. Darius from the other end said."Alright, I've heard you, Darius, but a day's function of the company can't bring misunderstanding between us; I have a lot to do, and my visit there could only be possible next week," Rex explained."Alright, sir, no problem," Mr. Darius from the other end of the call agreed.Rex hung up the phone and headed inside the majestic building; however, it was already 9 a.m."Grandpa, aren't you attending the appointment anymore? Rex asked upon seeing his grandfather sitting on his relaxation sofa chair while watching a movie."Well, I expected us to return before 8:00 a.m., but look at the time now; remember I earlier told you that I was supposed to attend the appointment before 9:00 a.m., so I decided to leave it instead of going late," his grandfather enunciated.Rex sighed. He

Rex was still sitting on his sundeck, receiving the fresh morning breeze.It was Saturday morning, so no lecture for the day. However, Rex decided not to partake in any business activity for the day; he wanted to rest to the fullest on this day because he had been choked with work for the last week.As he crossed his legs, gently sipping his wine, suddenly his phone beeped."This early morning?" he snorted.He ignored the call, hoping the caller would end it after ringing for a while without picking up; however, the caller persisted.Rex nonchalantly picked up the call without gazing at the screen to know the identity of the caller.He placed the phone on his ear and waited for the caller to speak first."Good day. What can I do for you? Rex replied to the voice on the other end of the call."Please forgive me; I'm really sorry," the voice replied.At this point, Rex glanced at the name on the screen to see if he had done anything with the caller."Bruce? I can't remember doing any bu

At Polite Shopping Mall, Darius drove in with his car and quickly opened the door. He hastened to his office. The call he just answered worsened his mood.As he reached the second floor where his office was located, his heart began racing as he wondered what resulted in his assistant calling him and requesting his presence urgently and ending the call without letting him know what was happening or the need for his presence."Sir, the new boss came here and asked about you; I told him you had come to work and gone somewhere," the assistant said."Damn it! Why would you do that? Darius yelled."You should have told him I haven't come yet," he added."But sir, I thought that's what you told me to be telling the boss," the assistant retorted."That's for the old boss, man!" he replied."I'm sorry, sir," the assistant apologized.Darius walked over to his office and settled in. Just as he was about to bring out the files and arrange for what was needed in the company, his messenger knocked.
