Chapter 5
He got a suit from one of the best designers but they weren't so popular since it was made especially for him with just his name inscribed on it.
When he was done dressing, Helena came again.
"Your car is prepared already sir." She noted bit he didn't want to use a car for such an event.
A cab was going to be more than okay for him since he was not that used to all the luxury that he Found gathered all around him already.
"I don't think that I will need one." He replied to her.
Immediately he spat out the words from her mouth, the expression that was hanging on her face went off and he could not he but notice the swift change.
"Is there anything wrong?" His eyebrows were furrowed towards her.
"If Sir. Maxwell finds out about that, I am going to get into big trouble." The expression on her face was worrying.
"Okay, just this time." He replied.
He got into the car and he was driven slowly to the place, his eyes pairing halfway through the window to catch a glimpse of the city.
At the far end of the place, he noticed that a car passed by. His hands clutched hard with so much anger and he gnashed his teeth as memories flushed back into his head.
Even in his dreams, he was certainly going to recognize the car of that man who stole his girlfriend away from him.
But there was one thing that he did not want him to know just yet and that was the fact that he was rich.
He tapped the shoulders of the driver, turning his attention towards him.
"Do you want anything, young master?" His eyes were focused on the road but his attention was keen to whatever it was that Joshua was saying.
"I am getting down here," Joshua noted and as the words were coming out of his mouth, he was already getting off his seat from his seat but there was a worried look on the face of the builter.
"But... We have been giving strict instructions master and I can't go against any of them or I am going to get into a whole lot of trouble." The voice at which he explained was a little bit shaky and cold sweat already broke out from his face.
But if there was anything that Joshua was already tired of listening to, it was that same phrase.
His eyes farrowed at the guards who were trying as much as he could not to shiver to the point that he was sitting on.
"But I am your master right and you should be accountable to me. Isn't that so?" He made a face at the bulter making him to shudder even more
He was about to spit out a word from his mouth but his words broke into stutters and the only thing that he could do was nod his head.
"That would be great." He tapped his shoulders. "And you don't have to worry about this, I am going to tell Sir. Maxwell myself and I am very sure that he is going to understand." His assurance was firm in every single way.
"Okay. Young master." He finally agreed, pulling the car over to the road.
Joshua got out of the car and his feet swayed gradually toward the direction of the large hall that was going to be used for that purpose
The glimpse of the gigantic building that laid before him took the breath out of him and even though he already knew that it was it, he could not help it but survoy every single detail of the magnetic building.
While he continued to stare at it, his nose caught up with a familiar aura making him turn his head around almost immediately.
Before him stood Evelyn and her intended boyfriend, Henry.
Flashes of the past crossed through his mind almost immediately and he gnashed his teeth with so much hatred and anger.
Henry was the first to notice him in the place and his face broke into an evil smile.
"Look who we have here already. Did you miss your way or something?" The words streamed out from his mouth while he continued to stare at them.
At the sound of the word, Evelyn turned around and the walls around her world seemed to crumble immediately she laid her eyes on him.
Immediately Evelyn laid his eyes on him, her face disappeared into a strong frown and she felt like crushing him with her bare hands.
"Why are you following me all around? Are you so obsessed with me?" She forged ahead towards him, ready to slap him on his face.
"Obsessed?" He spat on the floor at the sound of the irritating word.
"I don't think that you would want to do that, the whole place is guarded and you are only going to be getting yourself into the black book of a real powerful group and I am so sure that is something that you don't want." His voice was firm.
She intended to ignore every single word of what she just said but Henry held her backwards.
"If you want that cooperation, I don't think that I would be wise to do what you intend to do." She whispered making her stop right on the spot where she was standing and growled.
"Leave him to me, I am going to handle him perfectly."
"Thank you stars today."
Henry walked over to him until he shouldered him and he shot a stare at him."
"I guess that the streets have done a lot of horror to you these past few hours. But don't worry. I am willing to help you."
"And I have to tell you, with the dignities that are coming in here today, you are not worthy to clean the dust off this place so it would be preferable for you to accept my offer."
"And that would be?" He frowned waiting for what he was going to spit out from his mouth.
"In simple terms, I want you to kneel right now and lick the dust off from my feet. And I will consider giving you a job as a security officer in my company." He proposed.
Evelyn walked towards him and cleaned the dust off his chest with a smirk hanging on her face.
"Aren't you so generous?" She affirmed.
"So, what are you still doing? Get down to his feet right this moment." She sneered at him to but their greatest surprise, he only gasped.
"While, sorry to disappoint you stupidity but I am not here to beg for a job." He grinned.
"I would preferably kneel before a pig rather than kneel before a low life like you."
The words shook them as they never believed that he was ever capable of saying anything related to that, especially for Evelyn.
"Seems he has grown some wings in the past few hours
She had always known him to the decline and always pulled away from anything related to trouble. But here he was different from the Joshua that he had always known.
Maybe it was because of the Divorce, that he was beginning to reveal his true self that he had been hiding all this while.
'So pathetic of him.'
"It going to make sure that you pay for every careless word that just came out from you." Henry growled at him but it only made Joshua rock hard with laughter.
"Seriously? Threatening someone that is way superior to you?" He made a face.
"If you know what is best for you.. you should be apologizing already."
"Superior? Apologize?" Henry scoffed.
"I'm definitely going to make sure that you regret this."
Just then, the hall public address system blew off and it was time for them to go in
"Too bad for you. You can't even go in."
"Well, Sorry to disappoint you but I already have my invitation card."
Chapter 6 Immediately he spat out the words from his mouth, Evelyn and Henry burst out into laughter trying not to believe what they just heard him saying."You have an invitation card?" They laughed harder, thinking that there was no way that he could be able to get that because it costs more than a fortune.He brought out his invitation card from his pocket and pushed it towards his face.At first their face Brightened but even with the evidence right before them, they refused to believe that he could have such a valuable material in his hands."Do you really think that we are going to fall for that?" Evelyn shot."Even without looking at it, I can tell already that it's totally fake." She hissed.Henry brought out his card from his pocket and Joshua's which was the master's card was way different from his."You are such are terrible forger aren't you." He laughed out loud."Do not know how long it took me to get one and do you even realize how expensive it was? All to see the heir
Chapter 7 Their face was flushed with so much confusion as their gaze returned from Joshua to the strange lady."I'm very Sorry manager. I know I should not have allowed him here in the first place." He shivered.Meanwhile, the eyes of Henry brightened Even more as there was a dark smile hanging on his face."Manager?" The words rang in his head again.He had always heard of the strong lady boss who ruled the greatest business empire in the City but never had he thought that he was going to see her anytime soon, especially in that kind of situation.This was his one-way ticket of earning the respect g the company and he was not going to let it slip.Walking toward them, he straightened himself once again and a slight cough escaped from his mouth just to alert everyone about his presence."Don't worry ma'am. There is always this kind of situation nowadays and you know what, you don't have to worry about this type of situation, and." Before he could even get to finish the statement tha
Chapter 8"You know that I am certainly not going to do that right? Licking the dust off your shoes? Do you expect me to catch an infection?" The frown that was hanging on his face was vivid but it only made Joshua smile for a while.But a dark smile only hovered at the side of her s face as he already had his plan perfectly sorted out and he was just going to go on bit by bit."But you made a deal right? Has the CEO of a trustworthy become so deceitful?" He shot a deadly glare at him making Henry's face twitch what a frown Helena's ears itched at the sound of the words and though she was afar, she pulled a swift stop.She walked towards them gradually towards them and pulled a stop right before Henry with a weird expression on her face."What is going on here again?" Her face was clouded with so much curiousity."Did I just hear something or did hear wrong?" There was a strange expression that was hanging on her face.Seeing Helena standing before him, a large lump went down his thr
Evelyn quivered and gritted her teeth at the thought that Joshua was going to be taking glory when he wasn't even worthy licking the dust of the shoes of the heir that everyone had been expecting.Her feet swayed off from the glittering seat that she was sitting on but she was intersected by Henry who shot a strange stare at her before she could get to do anything abnormal."And what are you trying to do?" He shot a demanding stare at her speaking in whispers so as not to bring too much attention to themselves."Do you just want me to watch him take credit for something that he is not...""But it's not in your power to say. Why don't you just allow the management to decide for themselves?" He replied in whispers, trying to seat her back but she was not ready to give up on her quest."No, I can't. And besides, if we stand up for them now, don't you think that is going to be a plus on our side?" She inquired further with her hands running through the outlines of her heir to make sure t
"Could he be that he is the one that we have been expecting all this while?" Whispers went all around the hall as heads rolled side by side."That's certainly not possible. How can this poor punk amount to anything." Henry thought in his head as a slight scoff fizzled out of his mouth.Joshua drew closer to the central mic as a slight cough escaped from his mouth bringing everyone in the hall into a sudden calm."Hey everyone. I'm sorry to say this but I am not the one that you are expecting. I met the heir on my way to this place and I was pre-formed that he would not be able to attend anymore due to an emergency." He revealed. "But how come a poor-looking man had to get such information instead of his secretary?" He heard someone whispering under their breath."The number of the secretary wasn't going through and since I was already making my way here, he just decided to do the needfuls." Joshua explained further hoping that no one was going to question him any further.And ju
With a sudden rush of strength, the dizziness in his eyes steamed off immediately as he rushed towards the bath room to take his clothes.His heart raced fast as he got into some casual clothes, hurrying as much as he could.He thought about the driver taking him to the hospital but that was going to delay him even further so he decided to get a cab insteadJoshua boarded a cab and rode to the place and soon, the glaring height of the specialist hospital was right from him.Coming down from the car, he walked swiftly towards it and tried to get his way into the hospital but he was cut off by a really strange hand.His eyes stormed upwards slowly only for them to meet with someone familiar. "What's going on here?" He Inquired staring right into the eyes of the security officer who flung a stare at him."Excuse you lame brat." The security officer shot a deadly glare at him almost immediately."What are you here to do? Beg for treatments? Do you realize where this place is? It's a spe
A pattern of feet emerged from the other end of the room large hall The stranger who walked into the place stormed out from the office of the head doctor while the doctor followed him closely from behind with his speedometer firmly around his neck.Without hesitation, Joshua turned towards the doctor and shot a stare at him, abandoning the receptionist and the security agent.Without a single trace of hesitation, the doctor pulled his eyes away from him as though he was on a way with him, transferring his stare to the security officer and the receptionist.And his stare said. "How the hell did he get in here?"Joshua could already see the swift connection in their eyes as a strange shiver went down the spine of the security officer when the receptionist pointed towards him."I tried to." He was about to say but the doctor only raised his hands, preventing him from spitting words out from his mouth and making him shiver even more.Joshua returned his gaze to the doctor with a strange
He brought out the phone towards his face and punched some series of numbers on it while everyone continued to watch him with some sense of mockery or pity in their eyes."Let's just go somewhere else." His mother was trying to say knowing what he was capable of doing even with a single call but he only smiled at her tapping her on the shoulders with love in his eyes."Mami, it's already come to the time when you should stop worrying about me and it should be the other way around now." He replied as he stared at her with so much love and affection in his eyes, making her smile a little bit as memories of the past flashed in her head."He is not the young Joshua that I used to know. He is now my young master." He said to himself.He placed a call across the Victoria and she picked up the phone as though she was already waiting for it."Good day, sir." She was the first to greet swiftly."Good day, Victoria. Are you really busy with anything? I need your help urgently." He said. A stut
