Emily was quite shocked to see the confidence Lucas used in telling her that they would eat there. That was unlike him and even if she was excited to eat there, she wasn’t ready for any form of troubles. “Lucas, we had our own share of troubles back there in my house. The last thing I want at this point is any more trouble because of how confident you are. We know that we don’t have so much money with us and I’m so good with that fact. We can always go to a cheaper place and have dinner”, Emily explained to Lucas who wasn’t making any attempt to listen to her. Lucas had a soft look on his face just as he stared at the receptionist who didn’t have any expression on her face.“So…are you saying that I should leave or are you the one ready to leave your job?” Lucas asked the receptionist whose eyes popped out of her socket. She was blank and shocked by what Lucas had just said. “My job?” She asked and Lucas nodded in affirmation. There was something different about Lucas and even if

“I tell you, Mr. Boulevard, the company is not -” Brown suddenly got interrupted by his secretary's unexpected entry into his office. He turned immediately, and paused on the phone call, watching how rapidly she was breathing, her hands were on her chest like she had just gotten into a hot chase. “Let me call you back, Mr. Boulevard. It seems I've got something crucial to attend to.” He said and put the call to an end immediately. Lesley, the secretary, was still breathing fast, even as she watched him drop the phone. She knew her unwanted, and uncalled-for action was going to get her into deep trouble. But, if she didn't deliver her message on time, it could cost her her job. “Lesley,” Mr. Brown started and let out a sigh. “Do you understand the gravity of the nonsense you just pulled off? How dare you barge into my office without my permission? What has gotten into you?” He questioned her, staring at her in utmost anger and irritation. “I'm sorry, sir, but I couldn't help it. W

It had been three hours since Mr. Brown had been waiting for the heir to the Belcraft. He was beginning to get irritated and extremely provoked at the delay. For someone of his status, he shouldn't be waiting for a young man who was the age of one of his son's to come bail him out. It was an insult to him. But, dear old Mr. Brown had no other option than to wait. If he didn't, he was going to lose billions, which the event would bring for him. Tired of sitting as his butt hurt already, he stood up and began to walk around the office. He tried to free himself from the anger and pain he was beginning to feel. He began scanning the office, and some of the properties he saw in the office, the paintings, how the walls had been creatively painted. It was at that moment his eyes got revealed to certain things his anger had blinded at the first stage. “Oh boy, I must say that the Belcraft are multi-billionaires.” He suddenly said to himself, smiling. “Well, who could have thought.” He said

He walked absentmindedly into his company. Every minute he had spent in Belcraft's office was a nightmare to him. It just felt that day was cursed. “You have to render a public apology to all of them. No one left out. Do it, or lose the sponsorship.” The last words of the heir of the Belcraft rang in his ear as he found his way to his office. Now, he was beginning to think of what he was going to do. How would he treat the whole situation and avoid it getting out of control?One of the personalities of Mr. Brown was his overbearing attitude. Whatever he said, and wanted, must be obeyed, and must be done. However, it seems like the clock had switched. It was now payback time. “Mr. Brown,” he heard the voice of Lesley again. He didn't bother raising his head to look at her. “Felix has been calling your line. But he said you've not been picking. He asked that I deliver a message to you.” She said, and followed him from behind as he walked into the office. The moment he got to his doo

"What!! Herk!!" Lucas yelled with sweat rolling down his face. He hadn't expected to be given such a quick notice to get a partner. He didn't have any, and isn't sure he would be getting any soon. Well, if he had come out as his true self, he probably would have had a lot of girls flocking around him. And as nature would have it, he would definitely be in love with a number. But now the opposite is his case. He still goes around as the poor Lucas who Everyone knew and wouldn't even want to associate themselves with, and the only friend he has, might reject his proposal even as the heir Belcraft. He greatly feared that she wouldn't accept his proposal as the heir, owing that she had never seen his face and barely even knew him."Who on earth would accept a man who wears a mask around ?" He questioned in a frustrated manner. He gulped down hard, and cleaned off the sweat on his head. Now everything made sense to him, the thought of Emeily that filled his head minutes ago was fo
