Night time. After working for the entire day and rushing through papers, documents and online issues with his computer, Vincent finally finished his work for the day and is glad he didn't have to postpone anything as Ferdinand had said to him."Ready to go?" Ferdinand asked, barging into Vincent's office."Yes. Just hold on let me save this. It's loading. You can go home and get yourself ready then meet me at my place." Vincent replied."No problem as long as you show up. Better not chicken out. Okay?" Ferdinand said to Vincent."I won't be doing that any time soon," Vincent replied. Ferdinand left Vincent's office and Vincent started arranging some files on his desk while waiting for the docx on his computer to finish loading.Once Vincent was through with everything, the docx loading was completed and saved.Vincent did a proper shutdown of his computer and then left the company. He got in his car and his driver took him home.At home, Vincent had a bath and a change of clothes for
Vincent waited for Kate to shake his hand but she just stared it down. "You're the son of Mr Devine Victor. Right?" Kate asked Vincent."I am," Vincent answered.Kate scanned Vincent from head to toe with her eyes and then back up, "I don't shake the hands of men that are not daring." Kate said to Vincent.Vincent raised an eyebrow at her."Kate!" Ferdinand scolded her for what she said."What? You can't tell me who to respect or not. I am still my person. I can make that choice for myself." Kate retorted at Ferdinand."So sorry about that." Ferdinand apologized to Vincent."Really?" Vincent questioned Kate, ignoring Ferdinand's apology."Yes," Kate answered."What makes a man daring? I am curious to know that." Vincent said to Kate."Let's just say, those are details left for me to know and for you to find out yourself," Kate replied and sat down to order a drink for herself.Ferdinand tried to stop Kate from drinking. He hated it whenever she drinks because she always takes it over
Vincent held on to his head as if having a headache, "ughhh! One question at a time will ya?" Vincent said to Ferdinand. He relaxed his head backward and closed his eyes then opened them again."This damned headache doesn't want to leave me alone." Vincent complained and raised his head again."Vincent!" Ferdinand yelled. Vincent tried to look at him but was seeing double."Ferdinand. You never told me you had a twin brother." Vincent said."Twin?" Ferdinand questioned. He reasoned that Vincent was seeing things because he was drunk and so he brushed off Vincent's statement and tried to get answers from him."Just tell me how close you and Mr Devine are." Ferdinand insisted."I'm not that close to my dad. We are hardly having time to bond. These days he seems lost in his world of business and I also have my job as CEO to focus on. I'm not just in it for revenge." Vincent said to Ferdinand."Revenge?" Ferdinand questioned. He was taken aback by Vincent's response to his question."Yes
"It was Mr Idris Ferdinand who brought Vincent in." the security man repeated himself to Mr Devine."I know! I heard you the first time!" Mr Devine shouted. He groaned and ordered the security men to leave the mansion and they did."Devine, you have to help me get him to his bedroom," Veronica said as she made Vincent sit up on the floor."Veronica, the maids can take care of that! Maids! Damn it! Where are the maids in this house when you need them?!" Mr Devine yelled.Veronica was surprised to see this violent side of Devine. This wasn't the man she know all those years ago. Back then he cared but now he's different. It's like something is eating him up from the inside... A pang of guilt... And she doesn't know what it is. Neither does he want to talk about it."We're here sir." the maids answered Mr Devine's call."What took you this long?! Get him to his room now!" Mr Devine ordered.As soon as the maids start helping Veronica with Vincent, Mr Devine walked off upset.Veronica wat
The next morning.Vincent woke up with a big headache and holds his head with one of his arms. He wondered how he was in bed and tried to remember how he got home but couldn't. All he knew was that he went out for a party with Ferdinand and everything after was a blur."Did I get drunk? But how?" he wondered.The more he thought about it then the bigger his headache became so he chose to just forget about it and assume that Ferdinand brought him home after he got drunk. He hoped that nothing bad happened to Ferdinand.Vincent wanted to take a bath but saw little vomit in the open toilet. He couldn't recall vomiting either. What was up with him?Vincent flushed the toilet and had his bath, he went downstairs only after resting a bit more.He found his parents at the table having breakfast and he joined them, "Good morning." he said."Good morning," Veronica replied but Mr Devine said silent. It was only after Vincent sat down that Mr Devine responded to him."Vincent... About last nig
Later in the day after work was over, Ferdinand arrived in front of Dominic's house as he earlier intended to and told the gardener to inform Dominic that he was there to see him.The gardener did exactly as he was told to by Ferdinand. After all, who in the city doesn't know him? It was best to just carry out his order without complaint even if you work for a different family.After getting inside the house, the gardener spotted Dominic and went straight to him to pass the information, "Sir, Mr Idris Ferdinand is here to see you." he said to Dominic."What for?" Dominic asked the gardener, feeling surprised. He had never had anything to do with Ferdinand in particular even if they worked in the same company so why was Ferdinand looking for him? Why was he being asked for in his house?"I don't know sir. He just said I should inform you that he is here." the gardener replied."Alright. You can go. I will meet him." Dominic said to the gardener. "Alright, sir."After the gardener left
Dominic goes to Vincent's office early in the morning after Vincent arrived and Ferdinand was seen by him leaving the office."Come in." Dominic heard Vincent's voice come from the other side of the door he just knocked on.Dominic opened the office door and entered, closing it behind himself."Good morning." Dominic greeted."I didn't send for you. Why are you here?" Vincent asked."I just have something to get off my chest," Dominic said."I'd like to apologize. For lying, for bullying, for insulting you and your mom and calling you weak. Everything I said and did, I sincerely apologize for it. I know you won't take it seriously or believe that I mean it but at least I've apologized and I don't expect much from you. I don't mind continuing with the extra work but please forgive me." Dominic begged.Vincent sighed, "I believe you are truly sorry but it's going to take me a while before I will be able to fully forgive you. I hope you'll understand that." Vincent replied Dominic.Domin
"About what?" Dominic asked."First park your car and then we can talk," Vincent said and ended the call just before Dominic could try to oppose.Vincent saw Dominic turn his car to a side and his driver followed. Dominic's car was parked at the side of a fence and Dominic waited for Vincent at the side of his car with his arms folded.Vincent instructed his driver to park beside Dominic's car and as soon as that was done, Vincent got out of his car and dragged Dominic to a more hidden corner."What is this all about?" Dominic asked Vincent."It's about the truth. What were you going to tell me back at the office? I noticed you went silent because of Ferdinand so now that he isn't here, I want you to tell me." Vincent said to Dominic.Dominic kept quiet and stared blankly at Vincent, "If I said anything then it would cost me a whole lot. Vincent hates me and there is no way he would help my situation even if I say things to his benefit." Dominic thought to himself."It wasn't anything
