The meeting
Right after the call, the office turned silent. Caroline was seated on the other side of the table looking nervous. Both of her palms pressed together as she began to doubt if the executives would show up. Does this mean she no longer had authority in the company? Mark hadn’t only messed things up, but he made her lose her worth and power too.If that was the case, then the company was surely doomed. With the stock price going down and if there wasn’t a way to solve it, the company would have no choice but to file for bankruptcy. If that was to happen, what she had spent years to build would have been for nothing.August noticed her worry and this made him fume in anger. These loosers needed to know their place or else they could keep acting the way they wanted.“Caroline, come let’s go to the conference room. We will wait for them. Just like I’ve said, ten munites. If they don’t come, we will fire them all.” He suggested.“Fire them all? They are top executives in the company. If I f

Foul-mouthed husband
Everyone’s expression turned ugly except for August who was now smiling. If these fools didn’t know they could be replaced, then they could keep acting the way they saw fit.“But…you can’t fire us. We are the executives and finding a replacement will be hard. The company is already in a dire situation. Without us, it will only get worse.” Emily broke the silence. It seemed the slap didn’t do well in deforming that face of hers. August thought to himself.“Yes, you can't sack us. Doing this will affect you greatly. The workers will assume the company is going through a breakdown, and they will quit.” Charles joined in after finding so much sense in what Emily said.“Besides, I think Mark is the one making the rules here. You can't sack us unless he does.”“Exactly. Don’t just instill fear in us the way you see fit. You have lost your position in front of our eyes already. You should go home and take care of this foul-mouthed husband of yours.”“True. I won’t be intimidated by the likes

Taking a loan
It took a while yet no one said anything or even made an attempt to say a thing. The reason was that fifty million was such a huge amount and finding a bank that could loan it to them, especially when the company was in such a state would be very difficult.Whoever took the loan might have to be responsible for the consequences later on. Though they had told Caroline they were ready to help, going to take a loan from the bank was something they couldn’t help out with.Sighs!“Okay, I’ll go by myself. I reckon that Pinnacle Bank is the highest bank in this city that can loan us such an amount. Not to worry, I’ll make sure I get the loan.“You all can go back to your respective departments and wait for news from me. I’ll come with something positive.” Caroline said with a determined look on her face that spurred the others.After all, she was the CEO. Taking such responsibility was supposed to be part of her work. Also, given her past achievements, none of them could hold a torch to her

A trap
Searching through his phone, Mark found the number of the manager of Pinnacle Bank. Never did he think it could be beneficial if not today and at this moment. Days ago, he had collected the number intending to collect a loan and putting the charges on the company. His spending habit was something he couldn’t control and by taking the loan, he could keep living the luxurious life he wanted.Sadly, before he was unable to achieve that, August and Caroline came into the picture and ruined everything for him.“Hello, Mr. Ethan, you must be the bank manager of Pinnacle Bank, right?” Mark said right after the call went through.“And who is this?” The voice sounded uninterested over the phone.Rolling his eyes, Mark racked his brain on what to say and after a while, he seemed to have come up with a plan. “It’s like this, I am a worker in Aurora Corporation and my boss wants to take a loan from your bank. I know it might not make sense, but I have to warn you that our company is bad, and we

Sue you for slander
Both August and Caroline looked in the direction of where the voice was coming from and saw a bald head short man, clad in a suit, walking toward them. He had so many security guards behind him as he made his way towards them. Without thinking twice they could tell he was the manager.“You must be Caroline and you must be August the cripple husband who started walking as of recently? So what are you here for today? Take a loan and not pay it back? You guys are the thieves of the society. You ruin everything for us and think you can get away easily?” Ethan sneered in anger. Even though it was all an act, it had to be real since he was paid such a huge amount.Hearing this immediately sparked a discussion among customers.“They are debtor, aren’t they? So they go around taking loans and not paying back?”“Why don’t just sue their company for debt? This is too much.”“And I heard her company was one of the good ones. It seems the good they appear to be, the dirtier they seem to be on the

Pleading for forgiveness
Kneel? Ethan's brows creased in annoyance. Based on status, he was the esteemed manager of Pinnacle Bank, a figure whom so many people looked up to, and here was a punk, demanding he kneel in front of so many eyes. That would be a big insult to his pride and reputation.“Punk, don’t go too far. I’ve realized my mistakes. Don’t think you can threaten me the way you see fit.” He bellowed in anger as he pointed at August.“The one who threatened us here was you. You wanted to call the police, didn’t you? I’ll give you a last chance, you owe my wife an apology, do it peacefully or see you in court, pick one.” August replied with a frown, putting him in a tough position again.Thinking about it, Ethan figured he still had the upper hand here. As long as he got the recording from August, he would have nothing to present to the police as well as sue him. Besides, he had so many men behind him so why get scared of him?“Punk, you have just asked for it, and don’t blame me for being rude.” Eth

A reward
Huh? Wasn’t this daylight robbery? Fifty million dollars as compensation for all this? Ethan found himself in a dilemma once more. He wasn’t sure he would be able to get out of this one for the rest of his life. He only made two hundred and fifty thousand dollars here a year, how would he be able to pay the bank after this?He remained knee on the floor. His consciousness seemed to have left his body for a moment when Caroline spoke.“Bring the legal agreement. We will take it as a loan, not compensation.” Then she turned to look at August with a pleading gaze, that explained he shouldn’t pursue this matter anymore. Fifty million was such a huge amount and making Ethan bare the consequences of that would only make her feel like a bad person.“Okay, I’ll let him off because if you.” August compromised with a smile.“Thank you.” Caroline smiled before looking at Ethan.“I’ll get it right away. Thank you so much.” He replied before storming off quickly to it done. She had just spared him

Divorce him!
Just then, Rachel, Ms Winston, and even Mark walked out of the villa. When last had he ever made an appearance here in this house, but today he was here. All because of what?That wasn’t all, a man clad in a suit looking to be in his early thirties also walked out holding the divorce papers. He was a lawyer from the marriage union. “What’s going on here?” Caroline's brows creased as she looked around. August also frowned. He couldn’t help but shiver on the inside thinking, with their persuasion, she might give in to divorce him. Besides, a few days ago, she said that herself. What if her decision hadn’t changed? What if she still wanted to divorce him? So many thoughts were popping up in his head.“You didn’t hear me correctly? Since that bastard has come to the family, he has caused nothing but chaos. He even made you turn against me and take over the company. He beat your brother too. You don’t think I’ll take this to you?l” ms Winston said as she pulled Mark forward. Surprisingly,

Who sent you?
Watching August leave, the expression on their faces turned even ugly. What was that attitude just now? Who told him to walk out? Had he become even more arrogant because Caroline refused to divorce him? Damn it! Ms Winston cursed. She found him on the street, crippled, hopeless and useless.She brought him here as he was a perfect victim to make her plan work, but now it felt like he was a weapon fashioned against her. He had become Caroline’s backbone, and now he was rigorously acting on his accord as though this was his turf.“We have to find a way to deal with him. I’ll make sure to hook Caroline up with some second generation and only then will she get her mind off this loser. Also, he can help us take care of him.” Ms Winston said her thoughts out loud before looking at the lawyer.“I’m sorry, my granddaughter is just blinded, but that is temporary. I’ll make sure to come find you and sign the papers.” She said to him.“No problem. Since both parties hadn’t signed the document t

I need names
Seeing the look in August's eyes, even if he wanted to throw more jokes, he didn’t have the guts to do so. Besides, he had been warned that August had quite a temper and if he were to infuriate him, then regardless of if he had lost his powers, he could still be killed. After all, David was always by his side. August might not be a threat now but David was. His strength was so formidable that it was also feared in the country even though it didn’t hold a torch to August back when he was still in his prime.Sighing, the man replied. “Here,” he leaned to the side and pulled a briefcase to the front. Then he unlocked it and pulled out a stack of documents. “I was asked to give you the ownership of Apex Corporation. Please sign here and the company will be yours.“Also here is the sum of five billion dollars. It’s all yours. You can take it and start your own business. The apex company is a second-tier company that is worth ten billion dollars. It should be enough for you right?” The ma
