"Have you gone deaf or something? I said "answer me right this minute." Ms. Precious thundered at once again.
His facial expression was clouded with so much confusion, trying to figure out what was going on in his head.But the more that he thought about it, the more confused."I sent him away?" He replied like someone with a stutter."And which way did he go?" Ms. Precious fired at him once again.For a while, he could not get himself to say any further words and he didn't register the exact route that he had used in his head."I don't remember ma'am." He responded with a sorry look on his face."You will be sorry for this when I eventually return." She stormed off from the place swiftly, stamping her foot on the floor.After a while, she realizes that it would be easier for Richard to recognize Elvis since they meant recently and she was only shown pictures of him from previous years.Turning around towards the guard, she lashed out at him."Get before me bastard and don't make me repeat the words?" She growled.With his heart right on his palms, Richard made his way swiftly to the front. Walking swiftly to adjust to the pace of his boss.Hopefully, for him, Elvis was just standing outside waiting for the crowd to die down before getting into the car.Richard shot glances at him multiple times to ascertain that he was the one. If there was anything that he didn't want, it was to make any further mistakes.Finally, he acknowledged that Elvis was the one standing at the far end of the road and he turned around towards his boss."That's him over there." He announced, sticking his fingers out towards his direction.Without another word, Mrs. Elvis made a sudden dash towards the direction of the road until he got to her.Meanwhile, the sound of footsteps advancing swiftly toward him made Elvis pause and turn around to see who it was.But he noticed that it was someone that he didn't recognize.Rather, a lady with the perfect shape, body, and grace came stamping toward him. And even though her steps were steep, there was still so much elegance in them.Her boobs followed the same pattern as she sped towards him.Finally, she got to where he was, gasping for breath like someone had just finished a race but she didn't pause even for a single moment.He removed his eyes quickly from her knowing that it was most inappropriate to be staring at a stranger in such a manner.His cold demeanor returned to his face."And you are?" Elvis inquired trying as much as he could.Precious brought out the invite swiftly, pasting it on his face and she went ahead to say."You are young master Elvis?" She inquired trying to hide the fear that flooded her entire being and he nodded his head."My father gave me that but that security officer tore it into shreds." Elvis could not hide his dislike, expressing it freely."I'm sorry Master Elvis. I was supposed to give you the best receptionist but I gave you one of the worst.I don't even deserve your punishment. Please punish me." She pleaded with her head bowed.Even without anyone telling him, from the way that she spoke, Elvis could already tell that she was the Ms. Precious that he was supposed to meet up with.The security officer continued to stare at the happenings that lay before him, still trying hard to figure things out in his head."Young master Elvis?" The words Continued to go round and round in his head multiple times.He took a glance at the clothes that Elvis was putting on, his shoes, and his face that seemed like someone had just been beaten up, matching these elements with the name that he just heard.He still could not believe that Elvis could be anyone of social worth."Or is he trying to con Ms. Precious and bring down the company? Just like he had done previously?" The thoughts flashed quickly through his mind.Richard gritted his teeth with so much anger as he made his way towards the both of them.Ms. Precious's hands were molded with a ball immediately she sensed his presence in the place."And what. Are you here?" She thundered with a hateful glare on her face."You can listen to a word that he tells you, ma'am. He is a scammer." Richard announced, making Ms. Richard's jaw drop.She could not express the shock as her feet shivered with fear.Richard flung a swift frown towards Elvis."You fool. Do you think that I was not going to get a hold of what you were trying to do?" He glared."Why don't you just..." Before he could get to complete his statement, a slap landed on his face.His hands were clenched to his already aching face as he turned around towards his boss with bewilderment."You fool. Do you realize who you are talking to? Do you realize that I could not only lose my job, I could also get killed at the snap of his fingers and no one is going to know anything about it?" She was by every means furious but her words plugged him into more confusion."But how come that he is so powerful?" He thought in his head."But how is that even possible?" He could not help but Inquire."Because he is the son of the heir, the man we have always been waiting for."His eyes seemed to bugle out from his eye socket at the sound of the words but he was still finding it difficult to believe.Elvis could already see the hesitation that was written all over his face like a sudden pull away.Without another word, he brought out his phone from his pockets from the past photos that he had with his father, in his classic clothes and showed it to Richard.He paired at the person in the photo and back at the one that was standing right before himThe only difference that they had between the both of them was the style of their dressing."Do you believe it now?" Ms. Precious gritted her teeth with fury.Elvis was taken aback with so much shock unable to express the extent of it.Without anyone telling him to do it, he fell swiftly to his knees, his face already breaking down into cold sweats."I'm sorry Young master. I didn't realize that I was talking to someone really powerful. I would have treated you better." He announced and more sweat shifted down from the corner of his face."So you would have gotten away with the way that you had treated me if it had eventually turned out that I was an absolute nobody?" Elvis could not hide the disappointment that was written all over his face.Richard kept on apologizing to Elvis, not daring to move closer toward him."I'm not the one that employs you. I am not the boss yet so I don't have your fate in my hands." Elvis was already feeling uncomfortable with the apology and Richard could sense thatWithout anyone telling him what to do, slowly, he turned around toward his boss"I am sorry Ms. Precious, I promise that it's never going to happen again if you forgive me just the last time." He pleaded but she frowned instead."You still have the guts to apologize? After everything that you had done?" She clapped back."I'm sorry ma'am. Please find a place in your heart to forgive me." He continued to plead.Then a thought crossed through Ms. Precious's mind as her face relaxed but only a little bit."Maybe you are right after all. It's never going to happen again." She thought aloud.Even though he was successful in not showing it, he let out a sigh of relief at the fact that he was not going to be awarded any harsh punishment."It's not going to happen again because you are fired." The next words seemed to tear him apart right from the inside.His face was flooded with shock and for a short while, he could hardly hear his heart pumping anymore."Ms." He was trying to make out words but his words brought in the form of stutters shattering in the wind.Elvis and Ms. Precious go back to the office where he is taken round the company by Ms. Precious who shows him everywhere."And this is your office," she said as she opened the last office, revealing an extravagant room. Elvis looked around in surprise, this was the biggest office he had seen since he was shown around. "It used to be your father's, Mr. Ford's office. But now that you have become the new President, it now belongs to you," she explained. He walked over to the President's seat and sat on it, he slowly felt the softness of the chair. He sighed weakly, then closed his eyes. "And what may I address you as?" He suddenly asked. Ms. Precious smiled, then replied, "Ms. Precious, your secretary and guardian as instructed by your father," Elvis nodded in satisfaction. He slowly opened his eyes and sat straight."Send the company's documents to me," He said, dismissing her with a wave of his hand. Without a word she left the office.Elvis sat up from the chair, he went over
For the next few minutes, Silas and Elvis were struggling on who was going to retain the documents. Thinking it was the same Elvis from high school he molested each day, Silas didn't giun until Elvis pushed him aside then he fell on the floor with a thud. Smirking, he rose, dusting his butt with his gaze fixed on him. "I didn't mean to push you that hard. You would have just stopped when I asked you to." Elvis scowled. People were loitering about but no one gave them any attention. "Get into the elevator." Silas snapped. "Why? I'm already on my way out." He replied, trying to brush past him but Silas grabbed his arm then pulled him into the elevator. Still wearing his evil smirk, he grabbed Elvis by the cuff of his shirt. Gritting his teeth in anger, he yelled, "What has come over you?" "I already told you. I'm sorry, okay. I didn't mean to hurt you." He mumbled, gasping for breath. Instead of letting him go, Silas tightened his grip on the cuff watching Elvis eyes water as he
When Ms. Precious returned to the office, she was surprised to still see Elvis seated with his legs across the other. "You said you wouldn't be here when I return." She said, flopping on her seat. "I changed my mind. Do you have a problem with that?" He asked, raising his brow at her. "Not at all." She replied, chuckling softly. After a brief silence, she cleared her throat to get his attention and when she did, she pushed her hair behind her ears. "Aren't you going to tell me what happened? Your neck is still reddened. Who tried to kill you?" She asked, her face masked with worry.As if that was not enough, she left her seat then went to his side, "Tell me, it's time we involve the police because the next time the perpetrator will kill you." She said, "I don't think so." He said, chuckling as the discomfort Silas would probably be facing at the moment. "It's not funny. Please tell me what happened so in case your father asks I will have an answer to give him." She said, towerin
Sarah flipped her hair to a side with a broad smile on her face. She knew Elvis had seen her and so she wanted him to be aware she had seen him too. "Mister, your direction." The cab man said,breaking the uncomfortable silence in the car. "Is she your passenger too?" He asked, nodding at Sarah. "Of course I am. Am I posing a threat to you?" She asked with a light chuckle."I'm sorry, I will pass." Elvis said hurriedly and even before the cab man could say a word, he had stuttered out of the car. Clenching his fists, he began to walk down the road with a scowl on his face. The least person he wanted to see was Sarah but there she was — smiling back at him. "I should have looked properly before boarding." He snapped, fist pumping the air. "Hey, be careful. Do you want to hit me?" Sarah asked, jolting Elvis in the process and making him stop on his track. Frowning, he swirled in her direction, "Why?" He asked with a large scowl. "What are you talking about?" "You ought to be in
Elvis sighed in frustration as the shop owner raked him from his head to his feet. He knew exactly what the shop owner was thinking and the more time he spent looking back at him, the more he became angry. "Please leave, I don't haggle prices here." The shop owner finally said. "What are you talking about?" Elvis asked, pretending to be unaware of what he was driving at. "Since you are dumb, I will explain to you just once." He paused then continued. "In this shop, all clothings and accessories are of fixed prices. We don't haggle prices for whatever reasons." The man replied. "I wasn't trying to haggle prices with you.""Then…" "I want you to package everything I have selected and then I will pay for each item." He explained. Throwing his head backwards, the shop owner burst into an annoying laughter causing a lone tear to escape from Elvis eyes. When the customers enquired on why the shop owner was laughing, he was quick to tell them and they began to make jest of him. "Ever
Smirking, Elvis dug his hand into his hair then began to tug on it. Dustin's company was the least of his choices for emerging winner but it turns out he won, beating other competitors by a large margin. "Sir… are you still there?" Ms. precious asked, she had suspended her activity, awaiting response from his end but he wasn't replying. "Yeah." He muttered, biting the corner of his lips as he racked his brain on what to do. "When should I announce the result of the nomination? You are the president and whatever you ask me to do, I will." She added. Ms. Precious added her last sentence, thinking he was finding it hard to come up with a decision because of his father. "Mr. Ford wouldn't know about this." She said, seconds later when he still didn't say anything. Elvis couldn't help but let out a soft chuckle since he found her words amusing. "You know what… just suspend the announcement until a week later. I need to take some things into consideration." He said, still chuckling. "
Elvis repeated his request several times but the cops won't hear him out. They kept pushing him into the interrogation room despite his protest. When they finally succeeded, he lowered himself on a chair and Detective Artemis walked in, flinging a brown envelope in his hand. "Did you tell him his charges?" He asked the cop who had clasped his wrists with a cuff earlier. "I did." He replied. "But I didn't hear. I even asked him to repeat his words but he wouldn't budge. Bet me, when I get out of here, I'm going to make sure you all spend a week behind bars." He threatened. The cops around including Detective Artemis burst into a mocking laughter while Elvis looked at them with an embarrassed look. He knew exactly what they were thinking. "Really? You can't even afford a good meal not to talk about clothings but here you are claiming you are going to put us behind bars… I will call that vivid imagination." Detective Artemis said, erupting in another bout of laughter. "Fine. I wan
When the male guard wouldn't stop glaring at Elvis and Elvis kept smiling, the female guard cleared her throat, only then did the both of them stop. "Have you been to a prison before?" The male guard asked, a few seconds later. "No, why did you ask?" Elvis asked, his gaze fixed on the guard's face. "Because you are acting as if you are going to paradise. Just in case you don't know, you are more or less a domestic animal whenever you are in prison. You don't have freedom of speech, your movement is restricted and a whole lot of things. You think it's funny, huh?" The guard rapped and at the end of his mini speech, he was heaving as if he had just completed a heavy chore. "I know." Elvis replied with a calm tone. "Then why are you smiling? I will advise you to brace yourself for the ills in the prison yard and at the same time, pray the good lord sends you a helper.""Thanks for your advice, I will put that in mind." He replied and the guard waved him off. When the male guard's
