Nine o'clock at night, the party was in full blast at Mr Devine Victor's mansion. He had invited all his employees and their families along with his business partners.Mr Devine walked up to the built stage and began hitting a spoon on a glass cup after the music was turned down. Everyone present gave Mr Devine their attention.From on top of the stage, Mr Devine could see the Idris family and even the parents of Dominic, a new intern, standing along with other guests "First of all, I want to thank you all for coming here on such short notice..." Mr Devine started. He made a short speech and then invited Vincent to the stage with him.Vincent climbed up onto the stage and stood next to Mr Devine as he got announced to be Mr Devine's heir.People gasped and clapped as they murmured amongst themselves in surprise that Devine had someone to carry on his legacy.However, those murmurs soon turned sour as even the business partners of Mr Devine were most worried."How can a boy from nowh
"I knew I made the right choice by leaving him for you babe. Now look how lucky I am to be the girlfriend of an intern from a rich family and my ex is stuck as a waiter." Melanie said, pulling closer to Dominic and placing a kiss on his cheek."Hold on babe. Let me teach this brat a lesson." Dominic said, thinking he was finally going to get revenge for the hell Vincent put him through earlier that day.Dominic came forward, took a drink from the tray in Vincent's hands and emptied its contents on Vincent's head. Vincent stood there, mouth wide open as the drink was being poured on him.People who saw it happen gasped in shock and soon the music which covered the entire place was turned off as all the guest's attention was on Dominic and the heir of Mr Devine."This is it. He will regret what he did to me earlier today. Why not serve a public disgrace like the old times?" Dominic thought to himself.Dominic leaned into Vincent's ear "Now watch as I repeat the same thing I did to you i
Vincent was standing with his mother and father while listening to them chat away with another guest as the party begins slowly coming to an end.He yawns and then diverts his gaze from them only to make eye contact with a face he would have never expected to see again."Isn't that..." Vincent said and left his parents to where he saw the person."Excuse me..." Vincent said to her. Her back was turned against him and she tried not to catch his attention.At first, she pretended not to know it was her but after Vincent touched her shoulder, she had to turn and let him see her face."Tasha," Vincent said, on seeing her face."Yeah... It's me." Tasha said, dismissive of herself."I... It's nice to meet you, Tasha. It's been a while." Vincent said, giving a nervous smile."Yeah. You're a big shot now." Tasha said, feeling awkward."There's something I need to ask you," Vincent said."Go ahead." Tasha urged."About back then in college. Why did you hate me? I mean, you once confessed to me
After all the guests and Tasha leaves, Vincent meets Mr Devine who was discussing something with Vincent's mother, Veronica."How did you enjoy the party? Oh, my apologies for the side inconvenience. I didn't see them coming. At least not with your new-found status." Mr Devine said to Vincent."To tell you the truth, I wasn't comfortable at all Devine. I felt out of it. Like, I didn't belong here." Veronica said."Don't say that dear. I'm sure you'll get used to it too just like I did." Mr Devine replied to her."Dad, I have a request to make," Vincent said, capturing Mr Devine's intent attention."And what might that be?" Mr Devine asked."I want to work at the same company as Dominic. I want to become his boss." Vincent stated."Why? You have a hidden agenda behind it, don't you?" Mr Devine said."I want to teach him a lesson for putting me through hell while we were in college. He even insulted me and my mother. I can't let him just live freely without facing any consequences." Vin
Ferdinand didn't expect things to move so fast. Vincent was only the found heir last night. How come he became CEO of Mr Devine's top company the next morning?"What?!" Ferdinand exclaimed without thought."Sir, do you think this is right? He... You just found him yesterday and suddenly today he is the CEO?" Ferdinand questioned."Yes. He is my son and he has potential. A boy who graduated with honours." Mr Devine proudly said."Sir, if that's the case then most of us here are supposed to be CEOs because most of us working under you graduated with honours. How can you just give him the position after still knowing that anyone who wants to work here has to become an intern first?!" Ferdinand complained, the tone in his voice suddenly going higher and higher."Ferdinand! I am the boss here. I own everything you see around you. Don't make me take any irrational decision against you. I can make whoever whatever." Mr Devine replied, authority present in his voice."Oh? Do you mean like mak
After his father and Ferdinand left, Vincent decided it was time to have a little chit-chat with Dominic. Vincent came out of his office and easily finds Dominic who was typing away on his laptop.Vincent approached Dominic and Dominic only notices Vincent after Vincent takes a seat next to him.Dominic's mind went blank on seeing Vincent and he had no idea what to do as his fingers fidgeted above the keys of the keyboard."What's wrong? Out of ideas to type? Or is something making you feel uneasy?" Vincent asked Dominic and smirked, "It's fear and guilt, isn't it? The suspense is to die for. It's crazy not knowing what happens next and when or even where." Vincent added."Vincent...""Relax," Vincent said, cutting off Dominic's words before he could even start."I just want us to go down memory lane. That's all. Now keep your eyes forward and don't draw attention to yourself unless you need your dose of public humiliation today." Vincent warned.Dominic stared at his laptop and plac
Ferdinand arrived home by midnight on the same day that he left work to go to the bar.He closed the door and was about to go to his bedroom but his father's voice stopped him from within the darkness of the mansion. All the lights were turned off and Ferdinand didn't notice his father at first."Where have you been all day? I got a call that you left the company as soon as you arrived in it." Mr Khalid said to Ferdinand.Ferdinand turned around and saw his father seated on the couch and watching him."What do you want old man?" Ferdinand asked."I asked you a question." Mr Khalid said."Where I was is none of your business. I'm an adult and such questions are below me." Ferdinand retorted."Come here. We need to talk." Mr Khalid said."I don't have time for this, Father. I'm tired and in a bad mood. Most of all, I need to go to sleep. We will talk in the morning." Ferdinand replied nonchalantly."Ferdinand!" Mr Khalid yelled, Ferdinand paused on the stairs."You lost your control ove
"Hey! Where is my tea?!" Vincent tells into his phone."Almost done sir. I'll be right back with it as soon as possible." Dominic replied quickly from the other end of the call."It better be." Vincent retorted and ended the call.A few minutes later, Dominic rushes in with the tea that Vincent asked for. He places the tea on Vincent's desk and apologizes for returning late."The usual person who makes it wasn't around and I had to go further down for tea sir," Dominic explained all while Vincent drank from the cup.Vincent spat the tea out to the side and grimaced, "what is this?" Vincent asked."It's tea, sir," Dominic answered, clueless of what Vincent was implying."This is not tea. It is trash. So I send you to get me tea and you go ahead to waste my money on the worst thing possible." Vincent retorted."Sir..." Before Dominic could finish his words, Vincent emptied the cup on his pure white shirt."Take that filthy cup away from me and clean the floor up," Vincent ordered."Yes
