Brad made sure Sophia went inside the suite before he went into his.Just as he opened the door, Nick stepped inside, with his head slightly bowed.Brad regarded him for a moment. “Is everything all settled?”Nick nodded once. “Yes, boss. It is. We now have a new manager. And the receptionist has been changed immediately,” he explained.Brad nodded once. “Have you eaten?”Nick shook his head briefly. “I haven't had the time to, boss.”“The hotel has a restaurant. Go and have dinner there. All bills are on me and I will sort it out tomorrow. Since there are no more rooms, you can share this with me. And with that, I will say a goodnight.”Nick bowed slightly, with a smile on his face..The morning came earlier than expected or maybe it was because Brad slept late.His phone rang suddenly. It was Sophia.He smiled briefly and picked it up. “Hello, Sophia.”“Yes, Brad. Good morning. Are you ready for breakfast?”Brad glanced at the wall clock. It was just eight in the morning.“Oh no, S
All the members of P-BOLD were almost gone when Brad stepped outside.He hesitated briefly as he regarded Tony for a moment.Tony moved closer and bowed his head slightly. “Greetings to you, boss.”“I didn't expect to see you here. When did you come around?”Tony smiled slightly. “Yesterday's night. I wouldn't miss this last day of paying respect to a great man.”Brad scoffed. “Or are you up to something?”Tony grinned. “I'm actually here to report to you as well.”Brad looked at him. “What happened?”“I'm done, boss. I've finally recreated the antidote,” he announced.“What?” Brad was shocked.Tony nodded slowly, with a smile. “I have but that's not the only news. I've discovered that some of the big men supporting Fernandez were doing it because of the threat. Fernandez threatened them with the poison. Since no one wants to die, they have to do everything that he want. He now has a lot of business partners that he couldn't help but be the richest and most successful businessman,” he
Sophia regarded his brother for another moment. He still hasn't left comatose but the doctors have assured her that he would be fine.Sophia couldn't wait to see her brother again. The fact that her brother has a photographic memory was something that excited her.But she doesn't know if he still possesses that ability after so much. Her brother has suffered a lot and she just wants to see him alive and talking like he used to.That was enough for her.She released a sigh, as her phone rang. Happiness rushed into her as she thought it was Brad. A sigh escaped her when she realized it wasn't Brad but her mother.She couldn't believe Brad didn't want to see her again before he left for New York, knowing fully well that she might not even show up until maybe a few days before graduation. Even though she knew that was going to cause issues, she wasn't bothered.What if she resumed, only to be kidnapped by Ned? What would she do then? Would she even be able to graduate?“Hello, mom.”“Hell
Tina released a sigh as she continued to look at the business card in her hands.She contemplated what to really do. Was she supposed to believe the men she saw at the party? And go to the company?She released another sigh, maybe for the umpteenth time that day. Well, she didn't know if she would be able to secure another job after what Mia did to her.And well, what she did in return.She took her bag and walked out of the room. She flagged down a taxi and gave out the address to the driver.Soon enough, they arrived at the company and Tina got out of the car.She hesitated briefly in front of the company before she entered.There were a lot of people going forth and out. Tina moved to the receptionist.“Hello, how can I see the manager around here?”The lady looked up at Tina, with a smile. “Do you have an appointment with him?”Tina nodded once. “I do. Please, let me see him.”The lady nodded once, took the telephone, and dialed a number. She looked at Tina. “What should I tell hi
A lady stood and moved closer to Brad just as he walked inside.“You must be Brad. You are wanted inside,” she said disrespectfully.Brad regarded her for a moment. “Alright.”The lady waved with pride and walked back to her seat.Brad released a sigh at her attitude before he moved towards the door. He knocked on the door slightly.“Hey! What's happening?” A feminine voice snapped from behind him.Brad looked at the assistant with a look of indignation. “Good morning, ma’am.”“Oh, morning?” She laughed. “I didn't know you were going to come today.”“Well, I did tell the authorities when I applied for this job. Since I was a student, I was allowed to come at a certain time,” he explained.The lady scoffed. “Really? That's why you come to work at your convenience. If this is too much for you, you can as well quit. Why will you come to work as if your father owns it?” She yelled.“Well, I would have resumed earlier if the president of P-Bold hadn't declared a holiday and_”“Oh, spare me
Meanwhile, in Vincenzo's house, there were a lot of his men in the room, standing and awaiting his decision.Vincenzo pushed all the things on his desk away in anger. “Just how? How did he manage to do that? Just how?”The men stepped back and bowed.Vincenzo looked at his men one after the other. “Do I have someone that wishes to answer me? Before I kill everyone?”The men stepped back a bit.Vincenzo mentally hit his head. He groaned inwardly. “It was so easy with his father. Why is the son so stubborn? Besides, how was he able to see through our plans? The idiot was even able to reveal my identity.”“Well, boss,” one of the men started suddenly, with a shaking voice. “I think Tony is the one who told the new president of P-Bold who you really are.”Vincenzo shook his head briefly. “No, he didn't. I pretended as well. He only knew me as Vincenzo and nothing more.”The man stepped back. Vincenzo paused suddenly and closed his eyes for a brief moment. “I'm going to one of my father's
Brad's phone rang suddenly as he stepped out of the elevator.It was Ava. Brad picked it up immediately.“Hello, boss. The head of the operation has just been changed. You are officially the new head of operation and an assistant has been assigned to you. I've sent someone to the Head of the operations office. He will be there any moment from now,” she explained.“Good. I will get back to you later then,” he finished and hung up.He walked back inside.“Why are you still dilly-dally!” The lady from earlier yelled suddenly.Brad released a sigh and moved closer to the lady.The lady looked up at Brad for a while and scoffed. “Really? What are you doing here? I thought you've been fired and you are supposed to leave the vicinity.”Brad regarded her for a moment, didn't talk, and instead started towards the head of the operation’s office.“What!”All the workers’ heads turned towards Brad in amazement. “Hey! Come right back! Where do you think you are going?” The lady yelled in anger.B
“Good, you can leave. You can take the day off.”Mia hesitated briefly and bowed. “Thank you so much! I really appreciate it!”Brad nodded once. “Send someone in so that they can get me on with the office work.”“Alright sir,” Mia responded, stood up and hurried out of the office.Brad didn't want to resume as the head of operation just yet. Besides, he still had few months before he would graduate, few months when he would have the time for work.But he really couldn't bypass everything that was happening in the office.So, he was ready to start anyhow.He walked to the table, and examined the laptop for a moment. His phone rang suddenly.Brad pulled out the phone from his pocket and looked at the screen. It was Claire. Brad had almost forgotten about her and the little deal he got himself into.“Hello, Claire.”“Hi Brad. Good morning and how are you doing?”Brad moved to his seat and sat. “I'm fine. Why are you calling?”“Well, I wants to remind you of our last discussion. There's a
