"Though, I would like to implore you all to be a little patient as I'd need to amend the contract rules for the benefit of you all. It will only take an hour, tops."The crowd agreed by cheering Brad even further.Brad turned back to the staff that huddled behind him and nodded. Ned's former assistant then walked Brad to Ned's former office, Nick in tow.Brad quickly got to work once he was in there. However, he made a mental note to revamp the whole company, especially the office that would become his, after all important details had been catered to.Ned's assistant fluidly showed him the soft copy of the file that contained the contract rules. Brad took his time to amend it, changed a lot of things, and made the rules more flexible so that it would be easy for loanees to repay the loans taken.Several minutes later, he cracked his knuckles and then wriggled them. He went through the changed rules one more time before he called on the assistant."Yes sir?""I just sent the new contr
"Hey man," Dylan shook hands with him. "What's up?"Gary just murmured a response, removed his jacket, and plopped on the padded seat across from his friend. Then he grabbed the bottle of beer that his friend had ordered, poured himself a cup, and chugged it down his throat.He sighed as he slammed the cup on the table. Then he reclined in the seat, tipped his head back, and closed his eyes. Now that was more like it, he thought. This was better than going nuts in his apartment.The young man, around Gary's age, watched his friend in amusement. First, it was the impromptu call that they should meet at the bar. When he lazily asked why, all Gary had muttered was that he just wanted to 'chill'.Now, 'chill' to Gary meant having himself surrounded by girls - it was his natural charm, hot girls just swarmed around him. 'Chill' also meant drinking, dancing, and boasting about his achievements but so far, all Gary had been doing was chugging down the cheap beer he usually turned down his no
The manager continued over the phone in a grave voice, "I'm sorry but I can't help you. You'd have to look for Mr Harrier yourself. If I get myself involved in this matter, it will also affect me and I do not want the wrath of Mr Harrier hovering over my head."Gary gulped, "Does that mean you've seen him?""Of course I have!" The man answered quickly as if Gary had just asked the most ridiculous question ever. He added, "In fact, I know him very well and I know that you have truly offended him and that is why he has chosen to deal with you by pulling out his assets from Trust Financial.""Oh God," Gary breathed and clutched his hair."Mt Harrier is one of the most humble and kind wealthy men I have ever met," the manager continued in a solemn voice, "I wondered what you did to him. Well, it's left to you to find him and plead with him. Trust me, you don't want to have his wrath over your head for long.""Can you describe him? Please.""I've told you. I cannot involve myself. You have
Brad placed a call to Ava. She picked up immediately. "Report Ned Morgan to the police for molestation and sexual harassment. That's why most of the fuckers loanees are girls and women. Nick and I have gotten solid evidence. They'll be sent to you soon.""Alright, Brad, is that all?"Brad paused and thought her question over, "For now? That will be all." "I will get to it immediately.".After Ned was thrown out of his company and refused entry, he was raving mad as he stormed away from there and left for his apartment. All his men could do was follow him with their heads bowed. They knew that they had once again let their boss down. It had never been like this until the man came into the picture. They always won every fight until they faced the man.Ned was scared to the bones, his hands shook even as he gripped his knees with them. He felt pathetic. He couldn't stop reliving the embarrassment that fucker had put him before his men and his customers. But instead of bawling, or sulk
"Again?" Rose exclaimed and her brows creased as the call went into voicemail. "What's happening?" She asked herself as she munched on the chips on the plate beside her bed where she was sprawled.A lot happened during Claire's birthday party that Rose was starting to think maybe she had overacted but it was what the situation had called for. She couldn't just sit back and watch her cousin push herself into a ditch.She attempted again and dialed the number. After a few seconds, it went straight to voicemail. Rose sighed, her hands fell by her side and she looked up at the ceiling. She didn't know anymore. Rose was convinced that she had done the right thing. She had thought that Claire would come around and thank her but she still hasn't seen or heard from her cousin. She really did not understand what was going on in that girl's head anymore.He frowned, deepened and she scoffed. "It's not possible that she has really fallen for that poor man right? She scoffed again as she brought
"What about your brother?"As Sophia heard Rose ask and she realized that she had trailed off in the process of trying to force the zip of the bag. She sighed and plopped her butt in the bag. Instead of multitasking and being unable to achieve anything she can as well attend to one at a time so she focused on her phone call with Rose. "Yeah, my brother. He's actually having his last operation this morning." Sophia had received a call from the hospital the previous morning that she was needed at the hospital as the operation would be carried out on her brother that morning. She was slightly vexed that they hadn't deemed it fit to inform her when she was there yesterday so that she'd have enough time to prepare as she usually slept over at the hospital after his surgeries but she hadn't said anything. She had just pressed her lips tight and asked, "My brother is alright, right?""Of Course! You saw him yesterday, didn't you?" "And you saw me too, you dumbo!" Instead, she smiled, forc
Gary didn't have the luxury of time so the moment he arrived at Trust Financial company, he barely had time to reply to all the 'Good morning sir' that was politely thrown his way, he just strode straight to his office and immediately called Claire with the company's landline.Claire, who was still mad at Gary, rolled her eyes as she heard the company's landline shriek. She heard when he arrived - she heard as the employees at the reception area of the company greeted him like he was some god who was walking the face of the earth - and she knew he must be the one calling her now. Apart from Gary, being the manager, it was rare to receive calls from anyone else. She listened to the ringing till it stopped. She rolled her eyes again. Gary had been trying her line since the day after her birthday. Claire had wondered what he was calling her for and she had come to the conclusion that she didn't care to know why he was calling so she made sure to dance to her ringing tone whenever his ca
Claire scoffed loudly, making sure to pass across to Gary that he couldn't buy her forgiveness. What would he even get her that Brad wouldn't be able to buy the company for her? What restaurant would he take her that would beat the one Brad will take her to?"Claire, I am begging you," Gary leaned forward, almost as if he would leech on Claire until she agreed to help him. It doesn't matter if he was the boss or not, he didn't even think he would mind if she said that she would slap him if she was going to help him. Yes, he was that desperate."A very important client just pulled out and I am in dear need of your help in locating who this man is." Gary decided to add so that Claire would see how important this was to him, instead she just rolled her eyes and his heart fell but he didn't give up, he kept pleading and explaining. "Right now, I'm on the verge of losing my job if the client doesn't return to Trust Financial Bank. I've tried to locate the client but you know I just got tr
