His eyes closed painfully as he recounted his childhood.'Adam, aunt is really poor and doesn't have enough for you two. See your cousin is hungry. Let him have the food okay?''Adam, see your uncle has run off with his bitch. You have to fend for me and your cousin in future. You hear?''Adam, aunt can't really afford for you to keep schooling. Come back home and work to take care of me.'Even though he had gotten a scholarship to college.'Adam, aunt is terribly ill. The local pharmacist has given me a list of medicines to buy but it costs a lot of money.'Adam this... Adam that...Adam curled like a ball and held his head tightly like he wanted the voices in his head to stop.Because of her endless demands for medication money, he had gone against his conscience and almost abducted someone today.What if he had been sent to jail or those that sent him finds him and kills him for a failed job... Will her conscience prick her?So it was all a lie.Sob... Sob... Sob...As Jed watched

Silence filled the spacious dining room. But this seemed to aggravate Alan's anger. He stood and pointed at Jack,"I want you to find out who the other party is and give me an explanation."Then he walked out of the room. Anna quickly followed him. There was no change in Jack's expression and he even continued eating his food but no one saw his veins protruding through his skin in anger.He has been working at the company for almost a decade now and never for once has his father raised his voice and rebuked him like this.But it just happened and the one who caused all these is still unknown. How could this be?Finn gave a secretly satisfied smile. All these years, he has been labeled as the black sheep of the family. Although he has no grievance with these brothers of his, it was still fun to see them shaken of their comfortable positions for once.At that moment, a 'ding!' resounded in the room. Finn pulled out his mobile phone only to see [Boss, after thorough investigation, we stil

Cullen trembled with anger on his seat as the principal gave Jed a golden plaque which none of the students that won awards previously received.He didn't even hear what the principal was saying as he focused on the smile on Jed's face that seemed to be provocative.He quickly glanced over to the section where the parents were sitting. His mother had a similar bitter look while she tried to keep up the smile on her face.He didn't dare imagine what would have happened if it had been his father that came instead. With all these praises, that old man will obviously want to drag this boy that has brought him so much honor home!"Thank you," Jed's eloquent voice brought him back to reality and that was when he noticed that Jane was staring at the stage without blinking. His fists clenched tightly by his side. How can she stare at another boy blatantly while she's with her boyfriend's side?The graduation ceremony quickly came to a close and the sophomore students instructed to take some

There was uncomfortable silence before Adam shrugged and said,"Boss, it isn't certain to us if the software was plagiarized or not."The word 'plagiarize' made Jed's expression even colder. He looked at the data he had just gone through on the desktop screen.The public knows there was a lawsuit that had occured between the two companies Jetti's and Meta that has left the latter struggling for a foothold in the tech industry.But they weren't aware of what exactly caused the lawsuit. Jed's eyes darkened at the words on the screen."No wonder Jordan had been so tight-lipped about saying anything regarding the lawsuit," He spat out."In this case, it isn't certain who copied who," Adam tried to salvage the situation.He'd dug up confidential info about the lawsuit that wasn't known to the public. It's no news that Jetti's and Meta have been in a fierce competition for ages. Recently, the Jetti's finally managed to surpass Meta with their newly launched software product that began break

The meal ended faster than Eric expected but he was left at the table to clear up the dishes much to his annoyance. Jed didn't know this because he already stepped away to check out the mail he received from Irwin. From the mail, he discovered the computer programmer that was responsible for the mishap that had befallen Meta is called Mason Briggs. He is thirty nine years and had worked with Meta for only two years before rising to a significant position of head computer programmer. Jed's brows rose when he saw this. You need to work first as an intern in that sort of dignified company and it would take at least a couple of years for you to get to a significant position like head of a department. But Mason achieved that within two years. Was he really capable or was there someone behind the scenes? Jed checked more vital info. Mason had only spent a week in prison before he was released. There was also information like his address. "Adam," He looked up only to see Adam resting
