Brad arrived home in few minutes later. Actually, he lied about the assignment. He had already finished them but had to use that as an excuse to leave the restaurant.He didn't blame the girls anyway. They were only trying to protect themselves. Being branded as a friend of the thief is not something good.His phone rang suddenly. It was Maxwell. He picked it up."Hello, Maxwell.""Yes boss, I've settled everything," he informed him. "In fact, the president of BAS will drop an apology post for you to clear the public. And I've also ordered any contradicting posts to be brought down from StreamRoll," he explained.Brad released a relieved sigh. "Good, thank you.""I promise to be vigilant next time boss," he promised."Alright, Maxwell. I will be counting on that," he hung up.On second thought, Brad decided to leave the house. It was boring anyway without his friends at home and he had nothing he wanted to do.He soon got out of the house and flagged down a taxi. "Any nearest Boutiqu
Nevertheless, she proceeded. It wouldn't kill her anyway to trust him that one time. Besides, she was desperate. She was new and she had a certain amount she had to earn to be qualified to be a permanent salesperson.The machine beeped slightly and the receipt came out.251,000 dollars has been deducted from the debit card and it didn't say insufficient funds.The older Salesperson was shocked. The eyes narrowed with disbelief. The richly dressed man she got, brought $33,000 worth of clothes. This means her commission was just $3,300 but the new salesperson who just resumed work that day got $25,100 as commission.Besides, she was the one who got Brad first but she allowed him to slip off her finger because she judged the way he was dressed.The young salesperson beamed with joy. "Thank you so much, sir. I really appreciate it."Brad reciprocated her smile. "Just continue the good way because you will always be rewarded," he finished, took the bag from the salesperson, with his card,
Rose’s head flew off at the statement. “What insolence!” she snapped. “What do you take us for? How dare you table that kind of thing to us? Who do you think we are?”Sean huffed. “Really? Who are you? I want to know how you want to go against me tonight,” he said with a silly smile on his face.Sophia looked at Rose with fear written all over her. “What do we do, Rose?”“I merely want to have you for a night but I’ve changed my mind,” he chuckled. “So, I’m having you for two nights now. But don’t worry, I will give you the chance to call your knight in shining armour, and let’s see if there’s anyone that can save you from my trap.”At this point, Brad couldn’t take the insult any longer. He stood up. “That’s not acceptable,” he said suddenly. You can’t just go around and force girls to your bed. It's insulting enough that you would even see them as such.”Sean looked at Brad for a moment and burst out laughing, “Seriously? Is this your saviour?” he asked with disgusted features.Rose
James swallowed harder and quickly thought of what to do. He didn't want to lose face in front of Rose. If he could successfully resolve the issue, Rose would be indebted to him.He turned to look at Rose. "I will speak with him and resolve everything," he assured.Rose nodded once, with a smile on her face as James proceeded towards Sean."I didn't know there was someone that could easily go against Mr Louis. James is an influential man," She applauded.James stopped before Sean, with fear written all over him. "Mr Sean," He greeted, with a forced smile. "I was on my way to speak with you."Sean raised skeptical brows. "What's wrong."James swallowed harder, as he looked right behind Sean, at the men that were taller and more built than he was."I want to use this opportunity to plead with you for the sake of the two ladies standing far away. Please, whatever they have done to offend you. Please forgive them," he expressed.Sean huffed. "Get him out of my sight," He ordered.One of t
Sophia turned to Brad quickly. "Step back, Brad. Don't complicate the matter the more," She warned.Brad ignored her plea and moved to her front, preventing the men from proceeding with their plan.They tried to get him to push him out of the way but it was to no avail. It looked like a stone was standing in their way."It's Maxwell!" A voice gasped.Every gaze turned towards the entrance, as Maxwell walked inside with few of his men.At the sight of him, James released a sigh. His father was an underlying of Maxwell. So, he was certain that he would surely help out.He turned to Rose. "Don't worry, Rose. I've got this. I promise to handle this," He promised and moved closer to Maxwell.Sean was shocked at his audacity but when his gaze followed him, his heart nearly stopped. How did the fool know about Maxwell?Even though his father was tough and quite popular for getting whatever he wanted, he couldn't fail to acknowledge how powerful Maxwell was.With Maxwell, his father was nothi
Brad nodded once. "I'm ready," He turned to Ava. "What do I need to know about the party?" Ava smiled, happy at the decision. "I will list out everything you need to know and I will get back to you tomorrow," She assured. Brad nodded once. "Alright. You can call me whenever you are ready so that we can meet. And with that, I would like to leave. I have a class tomorrow morning." Ava nodded once. "I will drop you off." Brad looked at Ava. "Are you guys not here to discuss? Don't let me disturb you. I will find my way home." Ava shook her head briefly, with a smile. "Actually, Maxwell called to discuss you." "Yes, I was thinking of a way to convince you. I saw the news this morning and I was bothered. I feel we need to get you as the new president of P-Bold before things get worse than it already is," he explained. Brad smiled. "Alright then. Let's leave." . Brad got out of the car with the bags of clothes and looked at Ava. "Thank you for the ride." Ava smiled. "You should get
Brad pulled out his phone and dialed Linda's contact again. Even though he didn't want to have anything to do with her, he didn't want anything to happen to her.The phone rang the first time but no one picked it up."Brad!" A familiar voice called out as he was about to dial the number the second time.Brad looked up at Linda and a flash of annoyance flickered across his face. Linda wasn't even in danger. It looked like Linda made that pretense call to lure him to come.She walked closer with this smirk on her face and Brad instantly knew he had been tricked.She had a shirt and a pair of shorts on. She was actually certain that Brad would come running back to her. Brad was soft-hearted and Linda was used to manipulating him."Why did you call me, Linda? If you were not in trouble. Why did you choose to disturb me?"Linda smiled instead. "I knew you would come running, Brad. I knew you still had a soft spot for me," She moved closer and rubbed Brad's chest.Brad carefully detached h
Brad felt pity for her for an instant but he soon shook it off.There was no way he would even accept someone like Linda back into his life."They threatened me. They said if I don't find a way to break up with you, they would come to the school and report you for a crime that would get you expelled. So, I had no choice but to plan the break up in such a way," She explained and looked up at Brad.Tears were streaming down her eyes.Brad found it hard to believe. How could her parents threaten her to break up with him? How could what he saw at the hotel be a lie?"It's true!" Linda blurted out when she saw the disbelief in his eyes. "Ever since we broke up, I haven't been myself. I haven't been able to eat or sleep very well and I'm telling you the truth. Mick also threatened me," she sobbed harder and wiped the tears off her cheek. "Mick threatened you?" Brad was finding her lies incredibly upsetting."Yes, he knew the break up was planned and I still love you. So, he threatened me.
