Lucas sighed deeply and wondered why he couldn’t just live a quiet life without anyone thinking that he just committed a crime. “I didn’t steal any of these. I bought them”, he tried to explain, but his roommates were not making any attempt to believe him.They only scoffed and folded their hands to their chests, glaring at him as though he were a prey whom they wanted to pounce on. One of them even had to lock the door to the room because he thought that Lucas would be making plans to escape being caught. Lucas only laughed at them and focused on the snacks he had in his hands. He relished in them that he was almost at the verge of moaning in delight. Never in his life did he have the privilege to enjoy snacks worth this amount. “Sir, Lucas just committed a crime. He shoplifted some items”, one of his roommates said, and for a minute, Lucas thought that he had heard wrongly. He almost choked on the snacks he had in his mouth, but he gulped it down and told himself that he had to

Ella’s parents paced around their living room, obviously in a state of disarray. They had just received a distressing call from the Belcraft group, telling them that they may not be attended to currently. “But then, we’ve been coming consistently for the past three months! We should be the first person to be considered in a case like this”, Ella’s father, Mr. Williams had said on the call, wearing a deep frown and scrunched brows. “This is an order from the heir of Belcraft”, the person on the other side of the call said and immediately, the call dropped.“What the hell!” Ella’s mother screamed in frustration as she dug her hands into her head and paced around the room.Their company was at the verge of collapsing and Belcraft group was the only option they had. The other companies were nothing compared to the Belcraft group, and it wasn’t surprising that they turned down their request on first approach. “We should call Mr. Blake and hear from him directly”, Ella’s mother suggested

Lucas was heading to the school library when he heard some students chattering about his ex-girlfriend. He made to look away from it and pay attention to finding the book that brought him all the way to the library. However, he figured out that it won’t be bad to catch a glimpse of what they were talking about. “I heard that her family is on the verge of going bankrupt. They’ve tried everything they could to gain the favor of the Belcraft group”, he heard someone say. A small scoff escaped his lips as he listened on…waiting to catch wind of the main part of the story. “I heard that there is a secret heir…he would rather not make his appearance public. That secret heir definitely hates Ella’s family”, another person said, and they all broke into an uproar of laughter.Lucas took in a deep breath and clenched his fists in fury. He could still recall Ella’s words vividly. The way she insulted him and told him that she was only using him to get her parents off her neck…He didn’t mind

Ella smiled the minute she saw Thompson walking out of the company in his majestic strides. She was certain that he was successful with what he went over there to do.“How did it go? I waited here all day!” She smiled, even if she wasn’t so pleased that he took all of the day.Thompson let out a small smile as he tried to think of the best answer to give her. The last thing he wanted was making her know that he was greatly humiliated in the company. “What happened back there?” She asked Thompson who drifted off in thoughts and wiped the sweats that had formed on his forehead. He wore a fake smile and turned to her.“I had a very great time with the grandfather to the heir. The heir was very sad that he couldn’t make it to the meeting. However, I’ve made my request known to him. I’m sorry that I didn’t come out on time. We were so lost in conversation that we didn’t keep track of time”, he lied and laughed aloud to conceal how uneasy he was currently feeling. Ella believed every sin

Blake quickly placed a call over to Thompson. Thompson had been anticipating feedback from him ever since he replied and informed him that he was available to do whatever it would take to gain his favor.At this, he took the call the minute his phone rang. “Share the good news with me, Blake”, Thompson said. A massive smile was spread across his face. The line was silent for a while, after which Blake took in a very deep breath. “You would have to clean the entire restroom of the college for three days”, Blake dropped and for a minute, Thompson thought that he had just heard wrongly.He even took a peek into the screen of his phone to be certain that he heard correctly.“What do you mean by that?” He asked, with a big frown and questioning gaze.“Once you are done with that, you will have an audience with the CEO”, Blake dropped and quickly ended the call. The next minutes following the call he had with Blake was quite epic. He remained rooted to the spot, pinched himself at interv
