The whole place was quiet, if a pin fell to the ground, it would have been heard. Dre and Ethan were shocked to their bones and it pained David to see them like that. They took steps to get closer to him and they ended up in the middle of the circle too. " What do you mean?" Dre squinted. " You told us, just minutes ago, that you got a new car. We were happy for you, MINUTES AGO!!"David looked at Nick and he gave him a nod. " I lied." David went even deeper. " I'm sorry that I had to embarrass you guys like that."" Lie?!" Ethan looked around in disbelief. " You never lie! David, you have never had any reason to lie to us!"" Maybe I wanted to belong," David said. " Maybe I never had experienced anything good in my life and I wickedly decided to claim the car to be mine."There were talks in the crowd, Dre and Ethan were utterly disgraced. Nick liked it, he didn't even hesitate to laugh at them. " Well, then, I have forgiven you, boys. " Nick said. " But I might not be mercif
Rosie was sipping her cup of coffee and working on her laptop when David barged into her office. She looked up and returned her eyes to her work, she didn't say anything else to him. " What do you want, young master?" She asked casually. " One, don't call me that again." He warned her. " Two, I didn't know that you could be so wicked."" Wicked?" She laughed as she shut her laptop. " What are you even talking about?"" I know that you had the entire power to stop Nick Evergreen from using me like a puppet, but you wouldn't." He said. " I really thought we were friends."She gave him a pitiful smile. " Devan CEO called me. He was gushing about you so much, he thinks you are so intelligent." She said, " Imagine what your father would say if he heard that."David stopped for a second, he felt good about the feedback she got about him. " Maybe I should get some sort of reward, huh?" He sat down. " How about you get Nick off my back?"" You came late today, you thought I wasn't going
Stefanie was waiting, at a pizza stand, for David. He was supposed to be with her about ten minutes ago, but he was nowhere to be found. She sighed and sighed again. She had just gone through a cup of Sprite, but she didn't want to eat anything without him. She caught the eyes of some tattooed bikers sitting a few tables away from her. They gave her friendly smiles, some even winked. She blew air from her nose and picked up her phone. She didn't really have anything to do with it, but she wanted to appear to be busy so that she wasn't approached by those guys. After scrolling through Facebook for a few minutes, she decided to text David. " Hey, are you coming to our date or what?" It sounded just right, not too angry and not too mild. She hit send and waited for a reply, or even better for him to walk in. She had to wait for another five min, before he came to the table, almost breathless. "Hi." He kissed the side of her cheek. " How are you doing?"" Did you forget about our
David was watching Nick walk away, but then he thought to himself, he wasn't going to let him have the win. He went after Nick and knocked him to the ground. He didn't let Nick recover before he grabbed him from the ground and slammed him against a nearby truck. The truck bounced on its tires and started to let out a loud honk. Nick has a bump on his head, but he was laughing like a crazy maniac. " So you want to die?" He asked David. " If there is anyone who is going to die today, it's you," David growled. " I want my car back, the same way that I gave it to you." " Get your hands off me, you fool," Nick said. " Except you want to spend this night, and the next months in jail."David's hands were shaking, his face was angrily twitching. He wasn't thinking about the consequences right now, he wanted to snap Nick into two. " Hey." A calm voice said behind him. He felt a warm hand on his shoulder, he didn't need to turn back to know that it was Stefanie. " Just let him go, David
David was still waiting cluelessly in the office. He didn't know what was coming for him, at all. The door opened, and the salesman returned with his boss. The man made a quick assessment of David. David wasn't dressed in a rich manner, which added fuel to their speculation. " Hello, Mister Tony." The man smiled at David and gave him his hand. " Mister Khan is my name, I own the place." David took the handshake with a hesitation. " How did you know my name?" He asked him. " My salesman told me that you are a big customer, so I decided to attend to you myself." He sank into the car and they faced each other. "Would you like a drink? Maybe some whiskey? " He offered." I'm good, I just want to purchase the car and leave," David said. " I have to be somewhere soon."He is referring to going back home. His friends, Rosie, Gary, and Stefanie, they would all be worried about him. " Yes, we will get to that soon." Mister Khan said. " As soon as you tell us..."He gently placed the ca
After what seemed like forever, David woke up in a very strange place. His memories were hazy, but he felt the pain in his body the moment he woke up. When he was able to recall the events that led to all of his pain, he gist relaxed and breathed. The pain was still so much, he didn't even try to get up from the bed. It wasn't his bed though, but it wasn't as hard as those at the general hospitals. He slightly raised his neck and scanned his environment. It was very strange to him, it looked like he was in the palace. The door of the humongous room he was in was white and gold, royal colors. Even the futures he saw around, there were like nothing that he had ever seen before. It was like he was in heaven, was this heaven?He groaned when he felt a sharp pain in his side, he stopped moving and the pain disappeared. He didn't attempt to make one movement after that, he just lay there. The door suddenly opened and Rosie walked in. She saw that he was awake, and she gasped. " Oh
Rosie placed a couple of pictures in front of David. He was having a smoke on the balcony of his father's mansion. He picked it up, separating each picture from the other. They were pictures of cars, very expensive ones. " What are these for?" He glanced at her. " Pick another car." She said, " You are kind of forbidden from ever going to buy your own car, but I will get someone to pick it up." He handed the pictures back to her and took another drag. " I don't want a car." He said. She was confused, maybe she didn't come here with the mind that he was going to reject the offer. " You can't just not have a car." She raised and dropped her hands. " That's what boys of your age care about, cars." " I don't want a car." He said to her, " I have been living fine without one. Besides, the Lamborghini almost ruined my life." " Look, if this is about Nick, I will make sure that he never comes near you again." She assured him. " Besides, our partnership is partially over, you just do
David's jaw immediately slacked and he was unable to move his face. Did he hear her say what she did?" Excuse me?" He asked her. " If I hadn't known better, I would have thought you were the secret heir or something." She propped her head against her hand. David was distorted on the inside of him, he was trying his best not to expose himself. " Why– why would you say that?" He asked. He was praying, crying, in his heart that she hadn't figured his secret out. For her own sake, he was hoping. " The girls around the office, they have this idea." She pulled closer like she was telling him a secret. " They do?" He rubbed his jaw. " They think that the secret heir is among us." She smiled. " They think he is disguised as a fellow worker, and he is waiting for the right time to reveal himself. We are also trying to guess who." " Don't you think that's a terrible kind of game?" He tried to sound cool, but it wasn't. " You could get into danger." " The winner is going to get a thous
