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
Melanie raised a brow at Dominic while he puts Vincent's dirty clothes into a basket he just bought with his money.Melanie smile and then laughed. Hearing her laugh, Dominic gave her side eyes and then fully looked at her, "what is so funny?" he asked her, still feeling pissed from what happened earlier between him and Vincent.Why the hell did Melanie have to be here and hear all that Vincent said about him and his parents living off Mr Devine Victor?Why was she still standing here? Was she waiting for his return to Vincent's office so she could insult him before leaving victorious? If that's the case then there was no way he would let her win."Why, you of course. I can't believe that you broke up with me only to end up working for my ex-boyfriend. Something people don't see every day." Melanie said and laughed even more."Says the bitch who only dated him while he was poor and didn't get a cent after he became rich. You must be very sad right now knowing you won't be able to leec
"Vincent how could you be cheating on me right now?! You told me you were on a job hunt but you seem well of right now don't you?!" the woman screamed, getting the attention of other customers in the restaurant.Two men came to take her away but before they could get any closer to the lady, Vincent signalled them to stop."Idiot. You'll only make things worse by leaving her to talk. Thankfully, that's what I'm counting on." Melanie thought to herself as she peeked from above the menus in her hand."Ma'am, won't you place an order?" a waiter with a small notebook and pen asked Melanie."Just give me a little more time. It's my first time here and I want to have the best first impression." Melanie replied."Oh! Pardon my ignorance. Take your time ma'am." the waiter said and left while Melanie smiled back at him. She turned her focus back to Vincent and Tasha's table."Sorry but who are you?" Vincent asked, confused that maybe she mistook him for someone else."Oh?! Oh, so that is how it
After the date, Vincent dropped Tasha off at her place and kissed her goodbye for the day. He stood and watched her until she got inside her home before turning to leave.Vincent takes two steps back as he found Melanie standing behind him and almost bumped into her when he turns to leave."What are you doing here?" Vincent asked, not expecting that Melanie would still follow him to this point.This was the same girl he was crazy in love with in college but now he hated to even look at her. She now looked so unkept to the point that passersby would think that she didn't have a bath before leaving her home.Melanie was in tears again but this time it was real, "Vincent... What did I do wrong? Why did you just leave me and choose to stay with Tasha? Were you cheating on me back in college? Did you have feelings for Tasha while you were dating me?" she asked in-between tears."I don't have time for this," Vincent said, disregarding whatever thoughts Melanie was having. He tried to get i
