"You don't dare!" He would never want to imagine that Elmo would have some bodyguards chase him out. Is this a joke?If his staff saw this scene, they would have splatter out some blood at this moment.They would all wonder if it was their mighty arrogant CEO. Hehe.Elmo scoffed loudly. "I don't dare?" He asked himself with a mischievous smile. "Then watch me." After saying that, he turned his gaze to the door, waiting for the bodyguards to arrive. David remained dumbfounded right on the spot as he noticed the seriousness in Elmo. Was this guy really serious about embarrassing me?He scratched his head subconsciously while gritting his teeth with intense hatred and resentment towards Elmo. All his thoughts were just to make Elmo regret all he had done today to him. The embarrassment, the shame he got today from the QX group workers and the insults he got from Stuart.He had a completely loose face today and all that was because of who? It was all Elmo's fault.Elmo, on the other hand
Elmo's face was still furrowed, however his voice wasn't as cold as before. It now held a lesser tone. He needed to know what could be so important that would have made Stuart disturb him despite knowing that he needed some rest."Go on." He urged Stuart to speak.Stuart cleared his throat before saying a word. "Just an hour back, I got a notice that Mr Henry had started the film shoot. I think the shoot started a week after the film launched and by that time we weren't aware because we have been preoccupied with a lot of things." Stuart explained everything that has been happening since the time the shoot started. He didn't dare miss a word, with the intent of not pissing Elmo off.Elmo revealed a smirk, after finally listening to Stuart's explanation. Everything Stuart muttered didn't escape ears, as he carefully took in all the words.His lips were curled up, as he suddenly recalled all that happened at the film launch party.He remembered Henry's words especially. He recalled when
Young master, what do you want me to do?" Stuart asked, after a while, as he felt Elmo asked him that question, because he wanted him to do something. He couldn't have just asked that question for nothing, right?Elmo remained silent for a while before responding. "Uh, I want you to get the producer of the shooting film for me." Stuart was confused. He wondered why Elmo would need the producer after all they were the only one involved in this matter. Although he had a lot of questions, he didn't voice any of them not. He only kept shut as he nodded his head vigorously with the phone in his hand.When he realized that he had just nodded instead of responding, he quickly opened his mouth to speak."Yes sir, I would inform the producer. And besides you also met him at the film launch party the other day." Stuart muttered, as he remembered the producer shooting the film was present at his launch party."Em." Elmo nodded without saying a word. He didn't care much about whether had met th
After that call got disconnected, they both silently remained seated as they were curious to know who the person was. They had even suspended the discussion about the plan they were initiating before the call from Peter came in. The astonishing part of it all wasn't just about them suspending their previous conversation but it was because of enthusiasm and curiosity in the eyes of Elmo. He wouldn't have had this reaction on a normal day, however today was different; Peter had actually left his work all just to introduce someone.Impatient could be seen in Stuart's face, and he could no longer hold it, so he spoke. "What is taking Peter so long to get here. He should have been here already. I really don't know why he had to give us suspense when he clearly knows that you don't like it." Although his words seem as though he was caring for Elmo, he was only talking about himself. He needed to voice out his frustration so he could only voice it out in that way.Elmo on the other hand, al
The visitor who had mistakenly locked eyes with Elmo felt nervous and he immediately averted his eyes from the icy glare from Elmo.He stood at a side and turned to Peter, waiting for him to speak."Uh." Peter muttered, after receiving the eyes from the visitor. He turned to Elmo. "Elmo, I'm sure you know him. That's why I said you will understand better when you meet him." Peter scratched his head, with a guilty face. He didn't even wait to see Elmo's reaction before he bowed his head. Stuart didn't seem to understand what's happening. All he could see was that the temperature in the living room had decreased. The expression on the three of them faces also seems off. It wasn't like the way it was before.If he hasn't been so observant, he won't have figured out the awkward expression of the duo. He silently kept shut and decided to watch how things flow. It would be best if he doesn't puke his nose and speak without knowing anything about this unknown visitor. *Cough* Cough* he cou
He waited for a response but he got none, so he raised his head back up to know whether or not the CEO heard his words. Unexpectedly, when he raised his head, he saw the CEO rolling his eyes at him with contempt. "What were you doing? Why did you take so long?" The CEO's harsh and loud voice echoed everywhere making the staff members and non-officials staff members turn to them.Elmo was stunned at the voice of the CEO, however he wasn't surprised as he had guessed the CEO would one day treat him like this.Even though he wasn't surprised, he was still a little down as he never expected that the CEO would shout at him in such a large gathering. He resisted the urge to retort and instead chose to respond calmly. "I wasn't not doing anything other than what you told me." He paused before continuing. "It took me twenty minutes to get there and it took me ten minutes to explain to the one I was to deliver to, that I was sent by you. It also took me twenty minutes to return back just as I
Peter, sensing the tension in the air, tried to mediate once again. He didn't want Elmo to burst out in rage again. "Elmo, Richard's in a tight spot. He's reached out for help, and I thought you might—"Elmo cut him off, his voice dripping with disdain. "Peter, you've always been a good friend and you've always been with me for so long. But I don't think you should get yourself involved in this, you were there then so I don't think there is any need for me to remind you of what happened. His guy is one of my worst enemies. He's one of the ones who laughed at me when I had nothing." He paused, before continuing."I was about kneeling down for this bastard then, but did he show any sign of reluctance seeing me about embarrassing myself by kneeling down? If he didn't, then why should I hear him out now?" He asked, with bitterness in his voice. "Peter,, I don't know why you're on his side now but I only want you to not involve him with me. I can't bear his sight. He disgusts me to the cor
"I still refuse to help you. How's it my business that your CEO wants to frame you. Can't you just leave the job as an acting CEO?" His eyes were cold as he asked. Even if what Richard told him was true, can't he just leave the job instead of falling into the trap of frame which might lead him to prison.Richard sighed as he contemplated whether to say something, after a moment, he spoke hesitantly. "I can't leave the job no matter what. You know it already." He didn't want to look rude if he should remain Elmo of their previous conversation, so that was why he was hesitant to speak."Know what?" Elmo asked with a puzzle look. " I know that you're already framed, but that doesn't mean anything. You can still leave the job." He muttered, as he spoke out his thoughts."Oh." Richard scratched his head, as he finally understood Elmo's words, however his expression was still dull. "It's not that easy." Elmo raised his brow, with a confused frown on his face. " Why not?" He's not getting R
