2024-10-29 19:42:56While they did so, their eyes darted to and fro in search for the next head of the conglomerate. Unknown to them, the tall and handsome young man beside the Chairwoman was whom they sought.
After exchanging pleasantries with one another, they all took different elevators that led to the general hall. All this time, Sean couldn't help but shudder at the magnificent sight that was before him.
The headquarters was much bigger than rumored. Almost everything was made of glass, except the marble floors. And also judging the manner the workers concentrated on performing their jobs, Sean concluded it wasn't one of those companies whose employees are hypotrical.
Back to the present, in the general hall, everyone had already taken their seats excluding Sean Zachary, whose eyes roamed around the hall, unable to do anything until Steve whispered into his ears for him to sit down. Immediately he did, a few journalsits and pressmen then rushed inside in order to take photographs of the important event.
The ceremony soon commenced, and it was time for the Chairwoman Elizabeth Arnault, to announce to the world whom she had chosen as the new head of the great conglomerate.
“Dear viewers and Globalsphere conglomerate,” She said with all smiles. “I wish to say that this might not have been your expectations, but it was for the very best. I couldn't help but pick someone who was more competent than my first two grandsons. He might seem like a total stranger to you, but I can at the same time say that he is not. He is related to the Arnault family, so do not panic.” The Chairwoman stated to the wonderment of her listeners.
Some of them started whispering and muttering words among themselves. To them, the Chairwoman was speaking in riddles. If she didn't choose any of her grandsons, who else will become the head of the conglomerate?
The Chairwoman breathed out and contined, saying, “Before I say his name and reveal him, I will firmly advise everyone to treat him fairly without discrimination or segregation.” Her owl-like eyes scanned the hall and no one dared to speak a word because they respected the Chairwoman with all their minds.
“Without further ado, join me as I introduce Sean Zachary before you all as the next head of the Globalosphere conglomerate! Sean, please step forward.” The Chairwoman summoned Sean, who jumped out of his seat, and slowly approached the Chairwoman, and faced the bewildered crowd.
It was an unimaginable thing for a strange man to rule the conglomerate. As a matter of fact, he had to be a bloodline of the Arnault family. Therefore, this shocking news didn't go well with everyone who either watched in the hall or through their smartphones and TV screens.
“Sean Zachary is now made the head f this great business empire. Treat him in the same way you treated me, without any discrimination, disrespect of any kind. I believe he will lead the business empire to greater heights. Enjoy the rest of the show. Peace out.” Grabbing Sean's hand, they walked off the stage to greet some other people.
A certain man caught the Chairwoman’s attention while Sean was left alone, stranded. Having nothing to do, he decided to tour and view the the other parts of the building. By the time he took a bend into a lonely passage, a strong hand suddenly swung him around. Sean's mouth widened after realizing whom they were.
He had seen them at the mansion some minutes ago. They were the oldest grandsons of the Chairwoman. Garrett and Brandon Arnault. His lips trembled as he imagined what harm they inflicted on him in that bereft corridor.
“What...what are you doing here? How can I help you?” He tried not to stammer but failed at it. Luckily, the two young men didn't notice him stuttering, for they were blinded by rage that simmered in their hearts. Their eyes blazed with fury like men ready to strike at anytime.
“I should be asking you that same question over and over again. What exactly is your business in our lives? Why did you suddenly appear from nowhere to become the leader of the conglomerate? Who do you think you are? Even if you are from another planet, you aren't permitted to get into our family without being a recognized member. I am yet to look into your background.” Garrett rubbed his mustachec accessing the man before him.
Garrett had the feeling of being deceived by the Chairwoman. If the feeble young man truly belonged to the Arnault family, why weren't they aware of it? More so, his face and height gave him away.
“I am who I am. Can I go now?” Sean, was so eager to disappear from their midst as soon as possible. However, the young men held back the helm of his shirt, sending intimidating glares at him. How dare he try to walk away in the middle of their discussion? No one had ever done that to them, speak less of the impostor.
“We aren't here for discussion. We are here to warn you to steer clear off from our family and the conglomerate. None of them is meant for you. I want you to return to the hall and inform everyone about your pretense, fake identity and deceit. If that is done, we will let this slide peacefully.” Garrett warned with a smug because he hated the man with all passion.
Sean, who just turned his back, swerved to look at them almost immediately. Truly, he wasn't a member of the Arnault family, but then, he wasn't pretending to be one either. He didn't force himself into their lives. Why then would he tell others that he is an impostor?
“I cannot do that. I have never told a lie about who I am. Why are you guys even persistent about this matter? Kindly speak to your grandmother. Perhap, she might have a change of heart.” Sean mocked and walked away.

He was so good at hiding his fear and quickly dashed off before they could realize anything. The two young men watched Sean's retreating back in utter amazement. They wondered where the young man had gotten the boldness from. Was it as a result of the new position in the conglomerate?Brandon scoffed and adjusted his legs. He chose to remain quiet during the comeback of his elder brother with the man because he didn't see any need to interfere in their discussion. And again, exchanging words with the masquerader might be reduce his standards. “We just have to retaliate quietly and deal with the fool in an unexpected way. Yelling at him won't lead to anything. These kinds of people deserve to be taken unaware.” Brandon urged his brother. His words seemed appealing to Garrett's ears. Judging by his encounter with Sean a few minutes ago, it was obvious that he was a very stiff-necked man who would expect things in his direction. Even things that aren't met for him. “I agree with you,

The cameras and photographs didn't do justice to capturing the young man well.The young man was like a heavenly being. She could swear on that. She had never seen someone as handsome as he was, yet he seemed not to have a clue about how hot he looked. Sexy, hot and cute at the same time. Her brain was in a turmoil and bubbled with a strange feeling.What would she do when he kept staring at her down the stairs? After succeeding in diverting her gaze, she took the first staircase, but missed a step, thereby causing her to stumble on her feet.

“Permit me to say it was a slip of the tongue. He is not a waiter. Disregard anything he uttters. He is merely overwhelmed with excitement.” Steve chipped in to save the situation. The Chairwoman turned to him with a grateful smile. If he hadn't stepped in, she wondered what would have happened. However, Patrick squinted one of his eyes in suspicion. He could tell that something was fishy because he was not a gullible person. Since the time he met the Chairwoman she hadn't mentioned anything about making a low-class man the new head of the Globalsphere conglomerate. They all believed the man would be from a reputable family.“It doesn't really matter if he is a waiter or not. Nonetheless, his work as the head of a business empire kick-starts today.

If you aren't going to do what is necessary by choosing one of us instead of picking a church rat over us, we will take laws into our hands. You cannot just pick any man from anywhere to rule one of the major properties of the Arnault family. It is an abomination. Heed to our complaints and save yourself from impending troubles that will arise soon.” Caleb Arnault, the Chairwoman 's fifth grandson cautioned. He was the only person who would talk to the Chairwoman as if to his peers. He had little or no respect for the elderly woman. When he finished speaking, the Chairwoman arose and dusted the edges of her long skirt, which meant that she was done conversing with them because she had seen that the discussion would lead to no end.

Steve picked up the remote control, turned on the projector, and navigated the menus. Soon, a picture of two similar energy drinks popped on the screen. Aside from the colors, it was so hard to differentiate between the two products. Steve had to zoom the picture before Sean could see it clearly. Yet, they all looked alike.“And do you know what the most miserable part is? The NovaCorp manufactured this canned energy drink in four different colors and ours is included. So the possibility of winning this particular case is very slim. When we compared the taste of each drink, they tasted the same! The exact same size of can was used, the label placement had no difference. Frankly speaking, if we lose this case, the conglomerate will be shaken in terms of finance. Billions of dollars will be used as compensation for NovaCorp, which is their expectations,”Steve muttered.Instantly, Sean arose from his chair and said, “Let’s go to the company.

But Davidson Rogers had no blink of hope in his eyes.“We did check the CCTV cameras that were installed in and outside the distribution center, but came up with nothing because the robbers were all dressed in black hoodies, nose masks, and dark shades.” He sighed heavily. As a matter of fact, this was the first action he took when he arrived at the distribution center early that morning. He checked and rechecked the CCTV footage for anything, but his hope was crashed because the four hoodlums were of the same height, heavily clothed, showing no skin, and the color of their clothes was black. On the other hand, Sean and Steve were unsatisfied by his explanations. They believed they could still catch up with something. “Can we see the CCTV footage? I don't think we will miss anything. They must have made a mistake at a certain time,” Sean inquired. Davidson Rogers nodded at one of the men beside him. The man exited the conference room and returned a few minutes later with a laptop.

In as much as we try to blame SavorCorp for the attack, Davidson might turn out to be the masterplanner.”Sean, who was staring ahead, looked at him immediately. He couldn't believe Steve would say such a thing. To him, Davidson Rogers didn't look like someone who would deceive others. He looked like a well behaved man.“What, Steve? How could you say that? Davidson Rogers would never do such a thing. I fully believe that SavorCorp company committed the crime. If Davidson carried out the act, he would be manipulating himself. You know that, right?” Sean tried to defend the man he had only met for less than a hour. Upon hearing Sean's statements, Steve smiled pitifully. He quickly realized that his master was

Sean and Steve later left Snacksation company for the Arnault Estate since the day was far gone. When they stepped into the mansion, they met the Chairwoman discussing with Adams Arnault, her fourth grandson. Their eyes locked when they heard approaching footsteps. The Chairwoman turned away from Adam to Sean and Steve standing just behind the settee. “Welcome home, Sean. Come and have your seat, and you too, Steve.” She directed her right hand to the two empty settees in front of her. The duo sat down obediently, but Adams arose and requested to leave the room immediately. The Chairwoman agreed, and he walked away while the others watched him till he was out of their sight. “Adams came to see you earlier this morning, but I told him of your absence. I thought he had left, but I am shocked to have met him with you. Did he really wait until you returned?” Steve asked. The Chairwoman chuckled. “Of course not. While I was in the car, I saw him strolling round the estate with Brandon,

Who The Robber Is
In a minute, she was able to find lists of transactions that took place in the company for the past two months. “I have seen them. Here they are. These are the names of the customers who bought wristwatches for two months.” Felicia turned the computer to Sean and Steve. One after the other, they looked down the names of the customers who transacted on the screen. All of a sudden, Sean saw a name that looked very familiar.“Isn’t that Davidson Rogers? What is his name doing here?” Sean exclaimed, attracting Steve to look at the screen a little closer. Indeed, it was Davidson Rogers's name! It was shocking news to everybody. “Felicia, did you know anything about this?” Sean asked the woman, who was also amazed by this revelation. She looked at Sean like he had grown two heads for asking such a ridiculous question. How would she know? Would she have sat down to read each transaction slip every single day? She had no time for this.“I didn't know either. Due to my tight schedule, I wasn
