Without a word, without a hint of how he felt about losing his job, Kevin turned around and left the office.Felix blinked as he watched Kevin step out of his office and close the door.“What the hell!" He muttered as he reclined in his seat and further stared at the door.He slowly shook his head, further assuring himself that he did the right thing by firing him.How could he just walk out like that? With the calmest demeanour and without a word. “So arrogant,” he spat to himself.Usually, when he fired any of the employees who weren't working towards the organisational goal, they begged him. Some of them even fall to their knees and plead with him to retain their job, promising to change their ways. Besides, that is what any sane person will do.But not Kevin, the arrogant nitwit. He was too full of himself. Felix, annoyed at Kevin's attitude, concluded that if he had to fire him a thousand times, he would do it over and over again.And he'd gladly wait to see how far he'd go with

When they reached inside the house, Irene immediately excused herself and left to set the dining table while Howard and Kevin took their seats in the living room. Lisa sat with them and played with her Teddy.“By the way, boss, Alessia told me that your house is also around here,” Howard said, “somewhere close by.”Kevin nodded. “When I leave here, I'll show you. Because you also have to know my house." “Of course, boss. I can't wait." “Can I know your house too?” Lisa asked with a huge grin.“No," Howard answered before Kevin could give a response.Lisa turned to Kevin with a sad pout.“Come on, Lisa. Don't be sad. There's a benefit to it,” Kevin said encouragingly. "I wouldn't show you my house, but I'd give you my phone number. That way, you can call me whenever you feel like or just want to talk to me or even report someone to me."Lisa gasped, then she clapped her hands. “That will be awesome!""I know, right? We can talk for as long as we want.”“Yes," Lisa affirmed as she ret

By the time Kevin left work, it was already late. He would have preferred nothing more than to go to his apartment at Harbour Residential area and crash in bed, but Mia had said the family wanted to see him. And more than he wished to just shut down for the day, he desperately wanted to get the meeting over with.So he instructed Jake to take him to the Perry's mansion. “Wait here," he said to Jake as he stepped out of the car. “I'll be right back.”"Okay, boss,” Jake answered, his head inclined in a slight bow.Kevin arrived when the whole of the Perry family had gathered for dinner. Since he'd heard their chatter in the dining room, he headed to the dining room.“Hi, good evening,” he greeted as he glanced around the table for an empty seat, but as usual the seats were all filled up and he was left to stand before them. But this time, instead of standing with his hands crossed behind him and his head bowed, he walked back to the wall closest to him and leaned against it, then he tu

Kevin uncurled his arms around the collar of the man's shirt. The man fell to the floor in a loud heap, letting out a guttural sound as he curled around himself in pain. He could barely breathe from the brunt of the fall and the beating he had just received, and his whole body ached like he had been slammed against a wall several times.He wanted to stand up to Kevin; he wanted to make his boss proud, but he couldn't move even though he wanted to. The fight happened for a very few minutes, and he already felt incapacitated. He wished he had just defied all orders and shot the bastard's brains off the first time. Everyone who disregarded his boss deserved to die.Kevin took a step back, put his hands in his pocket, and addressed the men on the floor.“Get your car off the road,” he said deadly.Without question, fear in their eyes, three of them scrambled to their feet and staggered to the car. One of them got in, started the car, and moved it from the road. Once the car was off the ro

As soon as dawn broke, Howard had risen and begun to prepare for his day at work. He said his goodbye to his wife, who had also awoken while he got ready. Then he placed a kiss on Lisa's forehead as she snores away, oblivious to everything happening around her.“Have a nice resumption," Irene said as she pulled him in for a hug one more time..It was still very early in the morning when Howard parked his car on Kevin's driveway. As he stepped out of the car, pocketing his car's keys, he noticed the car that was in front of Kevin's house. He hadn't seen a car there yesterday.When he reached the door, he lightly tapped his knuckles against it. He stepped back and waited for a response. He didn't get any, so he tried again. After the second knock, he heard a feminine voice call from inside, “I'm coming,” then it was followed by soft footsteps.Then the door was pulled open. “Good morning,” he greeted, a polite smile stretching on his lips as he briefly wondered who the lady was.The l
