David stood his ground, his feet were fearlessly firm in the ground. The three boys walked towards him and Eric was too terrified to do or say anything. They wiped their noses aggressively as they came closer to him. "Hey garbage boy!" The first one walked towards David. "What the hell did you say to us?"Eric was shaking his head with his eyes open, he didn't want David to get into trouble. David snorted as he went back to work, but that made the rude boys more angry. One of them collected the long stick David used to pick dirt and he snapped it into two. David finally looked up at them, his tongue angrily pushing against his teeth. "Why don't you say something now, tough guy?" They dared him. "Do you know who we are?""Assholes, that's who you lots are." David huffed. "What are you, kids? Why don't you treat people with some damn respect?"One of them grabbed David by his shoulder, but David shrugged him off. David was strong, they could see that. The others turned to one o
David almost laughed at the look of shock on Winston's face. Was this something that his father did intentionally?Winston looked from David to Rosie and back again. "Wait, what's this?" He asked. "Why are you bringing this man in? I was told that the representative would be here." "These are those who came, sir." The servant bowed before walking out. Winston scratched his head, he was trying his hardest to understand what was happening. "Oh, you double as the driver?" Winston laughed. "And you are the representative?"Winston stretched his hand towards Rosie, but she didn't take his handshake. "Mister David is the representative." Rosie directed him. Winston took his hand away sharply, he was so confused that one man was a cleaner, and now he was standing in front of him as a representative of one of the biggest newest companies in the city. "What kind of sick joke is it?" He yelled. "Bring out the cameras, I'm not laughing. How can this garbage boy be a representative? Do Mis
David closed the deal in a grand style, he now owned Winston's company by ninety percent and basically, Winston now worked for him. Winston didn't know that yet, but David was so happy about it. Now he had tasted what having almost all the power in the world was like, and for the first time, he wasn't regretting having such a rich man as a father. Rosie and him went back into their car and she drove off. Her face was relaxed, but she kept her eyes on the road. "You did great today, David." She smiled. That was a relief to him, that she was calling him by his name and not by a title imposed on him. "That kind of felt vile, but that spoiled brat deserved it." David chuckled. "Why didn't you tell me that someone spat at you when you were working in the parking lot?" She calmly asked. "Because I don't want you to kill anyone." He said. "You never listen to me.""That's rich, coming for you who just robbed a young ambitious man of his company." She snorted. "You say it like it's a
Stefanie was obviously drunk, she laughed in his face. She snuggled her face into his chest and blew hot air against it. "A secret?" She asked. "What's that about?" David was holding her in his hands and he thought maybe it was the best time to tell her. Maybe she was still a little bit sober, maybe he could get a useful word out of her mouth. That way, he would be able to see her real reaction. He kissed him, he wasn't expecting that. She enclosed his lips and then pulled away, taking the wine with her. She found the kitchen and undid the cork, she poured herself a drink and went over to the table. David sat his ass down as he watched her drink, he was waiting for the right time to bring it up. "So, you have a secret?" She laughed. " And you want to tell me about it?""Yes, but you have to promise not to tell anyone okay?" He drew closer to her. "I am literally putting you in danger by doing this."She snorted, like to say that she didn't care for the danger he was talking abo
Everyone in the office got to know that David and Stefanie were dating. It was the gossip of the whole building. Everyone thought that they were a match made in heaven, even the jealous ones admitted to them being a cute couple. Stefanie and David weren't ashamed to hold hands and act all cute in front of their colleagues. Rosie wasn't a fan of them, she wasn't even trying that hard to make it known to them. Every corner they turned, they saw her glaring down at them. She never hesitated to break them up as soon as she saw them. "Go back to work," She would say to Stefanie. "But I'm on lunch break." Stefanie frowned. "And then who else are people expected to see when they walk in?" She asked. "Go back to work now, or I will fire you." Stefanie would sulk and then leave, in her heart the hate was growing for Rosie. She felt that Rosie was just being jealous since David and she got together. David spoke to Rosie about it, but she always maintained that everything she did was
"Woah, what are you guys on about?" David asked. His eyes were closely watching them in case they tried to jump him. The men came closer to him, but David took steps back to maintain the distance. The man that he met in the parking lot was the one leading them. David noticed that they were all dressed in the same kind of clothes. Fully black from head to toe. David counted them and saw that it wouldn't be an easy fight for him, but he still couldn't run away because they would definitely catch him. "What do you want?" David asked them again. "Tell us who the heir is, and we will let you go." The man told him. "We also don't want trouble, we aren't asking for much too, are we?""I already told you that I don't know who the heir is," David answered. "Look, I brought you the money, isn't that what I am here for?" "You think that I asked you to come here to give ten thousand dollars?" He looked at his friends and they laughed. "Do you know what your boss has done? How many lives ha
"Wait, why were you there?" Natalie asked as she also stood up. "It was part of the agreement that none of us should be there, why did you go behind our backs?""Because I know that both of you can't be trusted." She answered. "I told you that David shouldn't be hurt, but you instructed your men to kill him!""Relax! " Nick laughed. "David would be fine if he gave the answer to them." "But he didn't." She said, "Because Rosie found him and shot every one of your men dead." Nick's jaw fell to the ground. He grabbed his phone and rushed away. Natalie's eyes were fixed on Stefanie. "I don't believe you." Natalie glared. "You're lying.""You think I care about what you believe?" Stefanie scoffed. Nick returned; he just tried calling his guys' numbers, but they weren't picking up. "Are you sure of what you are saying?" He asked Stefanie with all seriousness. "Why would I joke with something like that?" She asked. "I am drenched by the heavy rain, I was watching from behind a buildin
The look of innocence on Stefanie's face went away very quickly, she didn't think of a real excuse before she came. Rosie laughed because she had caught her. She clicked her teeth and got closer to her. "Are you following me around, bitch?" Rosie asked her. "No," Stefanie mumbled. "Then what were you doing?" Stefanie exhaled before looking Rosie straight in the eyes. "That doesn't matter. Not after I saw you shoot those guys." The smile on Rosie's face only deepened, her eyebrows were pulled together. She grabbed Stefanie's arm and she winched. "Shut up and come with me," Rosie growled. She kept pulling her along, she pulled her till they got into the elevator and then finally to the terrace. This was where she was sure that no one was going to listen to their conversation. She shut the door, wedged it with a metal rod, and pulled Stefanie right into the middle. No one was there, it was just them. "You think you are a smart girl?" Rosie blasted her. "You are going to get
