“You are back.” Cassie sighed.“I warned you not to come to my office.” He hissed.“But, we need to talk.” Cassie urged him sadly, approaching his desk.“Talk about what?” He questioned seriously. “Letting you off easily should be the best option for you to accept and leave.” He informed her.“But I’m still in love with you!” Cassie cried out.“In love with me or the money that your client paid you to deceive me?” He raised a brow, giving her a dirty look. Cassie was taken aback by his candid statement.“What? What do you mean?” Cassie stammered, unable to control the guilt she was having.“Do you think I’m so stupid that I don’t know what you are doing?” He smirked, standing from his seat.“From the day you took me home in my drunk state, I knew. I became more confident when I went to your house and happened to see transaction slips and files.” He paused and looked at her. “You are playing with a tiger yet you are not being careful.” He clenched his fist in anger.“I - I -” Cassie sta
"Melanie, did you know what you did?" He scoffed in astonishment. "Your father will be very angry if he finds out what you did." He informed her seriously."Right? But, I had to do it since his deal was fair." She paused. "Next time he wouldn't send me to his male clients." She pouted her lips, looking lovely and he laughed."You are ridiculous. You're selling your father's benefit to another man, what if I don't marry you?" He teased her, raising a brow."Then I'm going to marry you, it can be the other way round." She stuck out her tongue and he laughed again, curbing the car at the garage."But I still think you are making me look like a man who relies on his wife's support. You don't have to do this next time, Melanie." He warned her lovingly, looking worried and she nodded, assisting him to adjust his tie."I have heard you, sir. You have nothing to worry about." She smirked, dusting his shoulder."He is inside waiting for you, I will wait behind so I won't disturb your meeting."
“$100,000 million was found missing from the company account which is affecting our stock in the market right now, how will you explain that? Leo curled his lips while questioning, his gaze fixed on Jamal.“Well, I- -” He began but was interrupted.“Did you steal the company funds for personal benefit or invest in the wrong place?” The investor that Martins had once paid asked him seriously with no manner in his tone. He smirked.“I don’t steal, do I? At least I have money to take care of my needs but yes, I invested in the wrong company.” He informed the board of directors.“What?” Leo was surprised.Meanwhile, Dennis lowered his head to the ground as he couldn’t behold the awful sight. It was the first time his boss had made such a mistake.“When did that happen? You didn’t even tell any of us.” One of the shareholders shook his head in disbelief.“So we should all agree that even the ‘perfect ones’ do make mistakes too, we shouldn’t blame his sibling.” That hired investor muttered
“~!!This is my last warning!!~“~ Since chances have been overstepped ~“~ I won’t resist this time from any hit ~“~ Get ready for me to answer to every ~“~ blow. I know you but you don’t know me.~”For some reason, as the entire family read the letter, they developed cold sweat looking scared, confused, and shocked.“Is this his own way to apologize?” Madam Felicia managed to speak with her lips trembling.“He has the guts!” Nathan reacted provoked. “We have to teach this son of a bitch a lesson!” Nathan urged angrily.“Right? He has been overstepping his own boundaries. Do I also have a right to make his life a living hell?” James asked, staring at his mother.“For him to send us this message, means he is ready to fight and will be stepping up in the game. We have to be extremely careful.” Madam Theresa said calmly.“Careful? Do you expect us to stay still until he takes everything away and ruins us?” Madam Felicia fired at her.“I don’t mean that.” Madam Theresa closed her eyes b
“Young master, are you alright?” Dennis rushed into the hospital injury ward, he saw Jamal and Melanie sitting on the bed while the nurses tended to their skin injuries.“I’m fine.” He said, flashing him a smile.“What happened? How did this happen?” Dennis inquired impatiently.Maybe in the entire planet, he was the one person who meant a lot to Jamal and also cared so much for him.“They did it.” He mumbled only to Dennis hearing while Melanie gave them a somewhat look.“Don’t worry, we will be fine.” Her voice found its way to the conversation, trying to assure Dennis.“Do it.” He commanded Dennis seriously.“Do what?” She grabbed his hand resting on his knee.“It’s none of your business.” He smiled, changing his facial expression as soon as he faced Dennis.“Yes, sir.” Dennis nodded, bowed, and left the hospital.Melanie wondered what he was up to while looking at him in silence.“Sir, you both are fine and can be discharged today.” The nurse informed him courteously and he stood
“[Breaking News: Just now, the Grandmaster of Technology had joined the International contest holding in the presidential villa…]” The board of directors silently watched the news while nodding their heads.“Good one!” Leo broke the silence.“This will be very good for our company in terms of promotion and new clients.” Another investor nodded his head approvingly.“Why are we not looking at the other bad side?” The hired investor rubbed his chin acting as if he wasn’t referring to them.“What do you mean?” Leo’s brow furrowed while Jamal raised a disgusted brow.“I mean, what if he doesn’t win? Success isn’t an everyday medicine, you know.” The hired investor curled his lips.“Are you mentally sane? Why should you be talking about that?!” One of the major shareholders fired at him.“But -” The hired investor wanted to speak but was rudely interrupted.“In things like this, we have to be positive. don’t forget we are investors, if anything happens to our company’s finance, we are done
“The contest will begin now.” The host began.Cold chills rushed up his spine when he saw different personalities and their gaze on each of them. Was it the president? Or his vice? Or the honorable guest of an established career. He has never been so nervous and scared before.“As experienced technologists, today’s challenge was picked from deteriorating companies, the participants shall be solving the problem of Cybersecurity Threats Continuity, Data Protection, and Privacy and Lagging using the application on their laptop screen.” The host meticulously explained to them. “This case has been constantly happening in most companies which leads to fold up or crash, but today, we must seek a permanent solution to it.” The host continued, walking down from the stage.Honestly, the task was so critical and confusing that some participants even muttered between themselves. They never expected it to be so difficult, without starting, some of them had imaginary beads of sweat forming on their
“H- How did this happen?” He asked angrily.“Yes.” Leo faced Dennis. “A fire can’t start up in broad daylight without anything happening.” Leo indirectly urged him for an answer.“I was on my way to meet the chairman at the presidential villa when I got a call from the security guarding the branch, they informed me of a sudden fire which made me rush down there. I witnessed it with my eyes as the building exploded, burnt down into ashes, leaving only iron bars.” Dennis told the story to them sadly and they shook their head dolefully.“This is bad!” One of the investors screamed in pain.“That was a lot of money! Over $300 to $400 billion spent in building that magnificent structure.” One of the shareholders held his head, unable to withstand the news.“Not even this contest can make us recover such a loss. We are done for.” Leo informed him bluntly.“I can’t let this go just like that.” He clenched his fist in anger. “I will make sure to get to the button of this.” He gritted his teet
