"It didn't take your forever to figure it out, did it?" Achiel muttered to himself, his gaze lifted in the direction of the billboard. He was not stunned. It was as though he had been waiting for one of the princes to figure it out. "But did he find out by himself, or did he use some help?" Achiel wondered, his gaze still lingering on the billboard. "Did any of the elders say any word to the people?" Achiel thought about it for a while. He wasn't sure if that was something worthy of his attention."What does it matter?" He dismissed the thoughts almost immediately it sprung at him. He looked away from the billboard for the first time. He could see the people all around the city going crazy over the news. He stood there by the roadside, and someone almost knocked him out of the way. Everyone was hurrying to go check the veracity of this news. "Fuck off, man! What are you doing standing there like a log of wood!" The man who had almost hit Achiel yelled. His eyes were red as he g

The hall was thrown into a frenzy. Everyone was shaken to the core of their existence. It was very obvious and conspicuous who had just walked into the hall!The three princes from Saudi Arabia!!!"Are those the princes?" Someone asked the person next to him. "Are you blind? Can't you see for yourself? What sort of question is that?" No one wanted to be distracted by their neighbors. The events happening in the hall were about to take a drastic turn. All eyes were fixated in the same direction, minds tiptoeing, hoping perhaps one would get the benefits before the rest would be able to reach it. "Where is he? Where is Mr Jones?" Anwar asked, looking around as he stopped in the spot. His brorhers were standing next to him. There was someone else standing in the spot with them. It was Jones, but they didn't pay any attention to him. "Old woman, we pay our respect to you." Anwar called at the old woman. He made a gesture that was identical to what you do in an attempt to respect so

There were a couple of people pointing in the direction of the lanky man who had just interrupted the scene. "It's you." Someone amongst the family members called. "I thought I was seeing things. Isn't he the guy who works for Miss Zoe?" Another person added. "Right. Miss Zoe's driver."Klaus, the lanky man, walked forward to stand in the middle of the aisle. He was standing in a position that was halfway from the door to the center of the hall where the princes and Jones were. "Who are you? Introduce yourself." Anwar demanded, taking a couple of steps away from his brothers. "I don't have the time for that." Klaus brushed the odds off at once. "Huh?" Someone gasped."Does he know who he's talking to?" Another person asked, scared for Klaus' sake. Klaus didn't seem like he cared. His face was solemn. There was no iota of respect in his eyes as he gazed at the princes. It was quite evident in his composure that he really didn't hold them in high regard. "He will be mad at me if

He picked his pace and walked off the side of the company building to a secluded corner. Up ahead of him, he could see someone curled up with their head buried between their thighs, welling their eyes out. He stopped in distance and sighed as he gazed at her. His heart was moved by the scene. Then he picked up his pace again and walked to stand before her. As soon as he got to her,"Go away." He heard her say. Achiel didn't say a word. He wasn't surprised that she knew that he was the one without lifting her head. "Is that what you want?" Achiel asked. She lifted her gaze at the question. Her eyes were dead red. The bottom of her eyes were swollen, and her face bloating.Achiel didn't know how long she had been crying for, but he could deduce that her skin was fragile and sensitive. She wasn't the type of lady to be exposed to hurt. "Fuck off!!!" Shs screamed at him."Isn't all this about you?! How dare you do this to me! You don't even know me! How can you be so cruel!!!" She t

Achiel was still standing where he was, staring at his phone. But the noise coming from distance was getting louder, and he couldn't ignore it any longer. He looked away from the phone, from the chat scene, in the direction of the noise. The group of high school students were still there. He wasn't ready to be concerned with who they were. Instead, what they were doing was something that he couldn't ignore. There was a lad who had been forced to be on his knees, while a group of bigger boys hit him repeatedly. Achiel had seen this at first but brushed it off because he was trying to gift Lauretta. Although, earlier, things were not alarming amongst the group compared to now. He started to walk towards the scene. In a matter of time, he was already close to the group. "Are you still going to keep talking?" One of the three big boys said to the victim, hitting him on the back of his head. "You will report to the principal again, won't you?" Another guy slapped the victim across t
