Back to Be Mr. Green 29. Life That Shouldn't Be His
The feeling when you walked through the doorway and forgot what you’re there, that’s how Xavier felt to walk through the hospital door and enter the psychiatric ward for the first time. A little bit surreal.It wasn’t walking in the park or like the stereotypes everyone just saw from television. Because movies don’t tell the whole story that someone should expect in the mental ward.As Kija escorted Xavier through the industrial-looking doors, he was so nervous. The aura inside the hospital alternates between quiet and noise.There were times when it was deafeningly quiet. Then suddenly, someone would shout.“I heard the demons chanting the name of my savior! Jesus Christ! Jesus Christ!”Xavier looked around the people’s reaction upon hearing the shout. Nurses were nonchalant. Patients, who went here to get admitted whether it was voluntarily or involuntarily, have a lifeless look in their eyes. They barely blink.He couldn’t explain if it was a good or bad experience, because he fel

[“The police found out that the ID which the witness gave them was fake. Right now, they are looking for the witness who gave the false report. With this, Mr. Xavier Green isn’t the prime suspect anymore and the police will investigate more ab…”]Cesar picked up his cigarette ash tray and threw it on the television where he heard the news about the Green family.The pictures on the LED screen have sandwiched between two thin broken layers of the screen, making the glass panels cracked. Nonetheless, Cesar does not care about it. He took the risk getting the police into this plan and yet, it didn’t work.“Are you telling me that his wife and son went to the police station to report that they are still alive and yet you did not catch them?” Cesar asked his secretary.The secretary only bowed his head as he spoke, “Unfortunately, we we got there, Mrs. Green was already gon…”Cesar threw the remote control to his secretary’s face. It was pretty hard, the secretary felt the pain in his te
Back to Be Mr. Green 31. His Worth
“I know you are there. So, come out.”Since Gabriel found him out, Xavier stepped out and walked towards him. He stood next to Haiden’s foster father and looked at the plants and flowers. The fragrance created an array of heady, floral scents that changed often as the wind did.The mood does not suit the atmosphere between Gabriel and Xavier.Gabriel was an abuser. Haiden was a victim. Even if Xavier succeeded in talking to him before and even calling him ‘father’, that does not mean that he created a good relationship with Gabriel.Notwithstanding, Xavier gathered his courage and spoke.“How did you know that I am here?”Keeping his eyes forward, Gabriel answered, “You always do that.”‘Do what?’“Every year when I celebrate my wedding anniversary with my second wife, you always come to this place.”‘Haiden did?’Why would Haiden come into the garden? Xavier was also curious.“Do you hate your stepmother so much for replacing Madell?”Xavier only frowned. He is not the real Haiden so
Back to Be Mr. Green 32.1 The New CEO
“Brother Gian. Just like what you said, Spade asked his men to investigate if our boss visited a psychiatrist doctor.”Standing by the window, Gian remained quiet while looking outside.Kija stared at his back and asked, “How did you guess it right?”Gian lowered his eyes and tilted his head. “Because it means one thing,” he said.“What is it?”‘If Spade killed the real boss and an impostor suddenly appeared, the first thing that Spade will do is to investigate Haiden’s family background to see if he has a twin. Or, he thought he failed to kill Haiden and Haiden lost his memories.’ It was Gian’s way to know what Spade did to Haiden. He was saddened to think that his old friend was already dead.“After I showed Xavier to everyone and introduced him as the boss, did you confirm the first place Spade visited that time?” Gian asked Kija after ignoring Kija’s former question.Kija smiled and then said, “He visited a warehouse in Montecillo.”Gian wore his suit and placed his gun beside hi
Back to Be Mr. Green 32.2 The New CEO
That morning with the Chairman’s cue to transfer the company from Brethart to Haiden, Xavier was brought in the Black E-Commerce company.When Xavier visited the company for the first time, he was wearing a turtleneck and a blazer in a core color.Employees heard that the management changed and that the former boss’ brother will handle the company.They did not expect much because they saw Brethart’s performance for the past years, and now, employees were scared that they might lose their jobs forever. However, when they saw Xavier, they were so surprised.“That is Sir Brethart’s brother? They don’t look alike!” “Didn’t you hear it? The Black family has an adopted son.” “Really?” Even if everyone knows that the new boss is the foster son of the family, they cannot deny how he looks like a true gentleman with a pleasant and respectable persona. His body is firmly-built like a knight waiting to rescue someone in his strong arms.Can he also rescue the company from falling down?Ever
Back to Be Mr. Green 33. Humiliation
Humiliation.While looking at the floor with wine dripping from the top of his head, to his face and to the tip of her chin, a cold wave of dread washed over Xavier. He was humiliated by Brethart in front of the employees.Brethart wanted him to become the laughing stock of everyone. He thought this was the best way to show Haiden where he should stand. Although Haiden replaced his position as the CEO, Brethart wouldn’t like him to forget that he was his dog, and he will always be. Murmurs buzzed like bees around flowers. Employees gasped as they observed their new boss froze like a statue while watching the wine dripping from his chin onto the ground. They felt their hearts dropped to the pit of their stomach, as they realized how mortifying it might be to stand in his place.They felt the second-hand embarrassment for the new boss. Yet pity cannot do anything. This is not the first time Brethart humiliated someone. His employees experienced it from time to time! They know the feeli
Back to Be Mr. Green 34. Three People
When Xavier thought that Gian was busy doing his job as the Mafioso, he wasn’t sure if that includes being his secretary.Speechless, Xavier looked at Gian, who was roaming around the office.“After you announced that you have 4% shares, you suddenly became the CEO,” Gian said before he turned his head to Xavier.He fixed his round eyeglasses and smiled at him.“And you were showered with wine during your first day,” Gian added as he walked closer.“How did you…?” Xavier asked an incomplete question.Sitting above the desk while looking at the nameplate on the table, Gian guessed, “How did I know that? Everyone was talking about the wine pouring incident as soon as I got here.”“Not that. I mean, how did you become my secretary?”“Forging things, faking identities, these are essential in my occupation. So, as soon as I heard that you will manage this company, I moved right away.”“I would say that it was too fast.”“Coming from a person who said he wants to make impossible things poss
Back to Be Mr. Green 35. Manipulation

Cesar had to win over the city’s residents, launch his own campaign and stay within regulations to qualify as a candidate. Fortunately, there are people who started to support the third in rank candidate.Some were paid. Others were forced by their employers.

Cesar! Cesar!”Cesar raised his hand to signal everyone to stop. When the noises subsided, Cesar began his speech.“Good day, everyone! Thank you for coming here!
