Even though he has tried to fathom all his thoughts into one, he still couldn't figure out the reason for Elmo's drastic change. From what he had known about Elmo for some time, he knew he wasn't someone who forgave easily just because of a mere apology, so what changed now. He wouldn't simply be deceived to have the thought that Elmo had suddenly changed his ways for no just reason.He shook his head vigorously with his trance mind.Elmo raised his head slightly and watched the continuous changes in the expression of Stuart. He knew he was also having a disbelieving thought and he couldn't help but want to laugh seeing the weird changes of expression on his face.He resisted his laughing urge and spoke. "You don't need to think too much." He paused before adding. "I'm not helping him just like that."Everyone's eyes widened with their body glued to their seat. They had expected Elmo to say something like this, however they wondered what he wanted to ask for in return.Despite the per
As Richard continually seethed his teeth with frustration. He also thought in his mind how in the past he would never address Elmo with respect. He would only call him with Elmo then with authority and dignity in his voice but now it has all turned around. He was ordered to do the same to the one who he had once looked down on. He sighed and murmured. "Karma is a bitch!" He was right after all. He had never imagined what he had done to someone else would end up being done to him. Never in his wildest dreams have he imagined a life where he would be down to earth to someone who was once a worker under him. Humph.He even needed to give a thumbs up to those who said karma is a bitch. He had never believed those words, until it happened to him.He dared to be upset or have grudges against Elmo because he himself knows of his deed, however he sure had some enmity towards Stuart now. He had just been getting on his nerves. How he wishes he knows how to teach him a lesson.Stuart snorted lo
Elmo laughed hilariously. "You wished for me to clear the frame charges laid against you. Just wow!" He laughed. "And why do you think I would do that?" He wasn't expecting an answer from Richard, so he continued."Do you think I would simply do just what you wish only based on you pleading with me? I only accept to help you a lil because of your pregnant wife and nothing else. In fact, even if I decide to help you for just a little, I would not be doing it for free." He said, straightly without beating around the bush. He only needed his words to be understood clearly and not misinterpreted.Richard had just been sighing deep within him as he listened to each and every word of Elmo. He didn't know what else to say, however the last words from Elmo made his brows raise in perplexion.Did he just hear not for free?!He wanted to quickly ask, but Stuart beat him to it. He had quickly spoken before he could ask Elmo the question in his mind.Stuart's eyes brightened. He had been expectin
His whole mind and body felt exhausted from the constant movement of his mouth since the time he had been here and yet the duo doesn't seem to still want to give him peace. He sure knew they must have noticed his exhaustion yet they kept on making things difficult for him.Peter snorted as he glanced at him. "I won't stop anything! You should be the one stopping all your facade. It's not making sense, it's disgusting. We don't freaking want to know what your inner thoughts are." He shouted. " In fact, I felt completely regretful bringing you here, you're just so annoying and pretentious. Besides I really don't know how I couldn't see through you when you came to me for help. I should have known earlier that for you to say you want to plead from the one you had disrespected in the past, sure makes you a nonsense person! You are somehow to blame for the death of his mother, yet just because of your dire situation, you didn't even give a damn about his feelings and instead insist that I
Stuart prodded into the conversation. "Who does he think he's to be disappointed in you. Is he qualified enough to say such a word to you?" Stuart's question was laced with malice, as he glared at Richard.Stuart wouldn't have been saying anything, if not because he noticed Elmo unconcerned gaze, if not he wouldn't have dared to say a word.Peter laughed at the quest of Stuart. "Please, help me ask him. I really need an answer because I don't know when someone like him dared to say such to me." Disgusting gaze was thrown at Richard.Stuart smirks as he glances at Richard. "Mr Richard, can you please answer how someone of your level dared to say such to him. Besides, why would you say that in the first place?" Stuart sees no reason for Richard to say something like that, when it was he himself that was supposed to be disappointed at himself for coming to plead from someone that he had tagged as worthless or useless.Richard rolled his eyes. "What won't I say that I'm disappointed in h
He could notice from Richard constant words, that he was always thinking he's still the way he was in the past. So it was better if he quickly reminded him before he would use those words to destroy their brains.Richard kept shut immediately. He didn't speak as he reasoned what Stuart had just said. Even though he didn't want to accept it, that's the harsh reality. In fact even Peter himself was ten times than he's now.Throughout all his years working as an acting CEO, he had accumulated some money which he had used to buy a house and the rest was being saved up, however ever since the frame case of a thing has started, he had been using those money he had accumulated for the past years to pay for the lawyers and also to feed his small family.Although his family was small, he himself knew how much they had to spend per much. For his wife's monthly medical bills, he pays a lot. For his house maintenance, he knew how much he yorks out every month so everything was really expensive an
Stuart was confused and couldn't. help but ask in perplexion. "You want to plant me in a place?" He couldn't help but ask as he felt totally lost.Elmo nodded his head, slightly."Yes, I'll be putting you somewhere for somethings." Start had a bewildered and astonished look on his face. What's Elmo saying? He didn't understand what Elmo had just said, as he couldn't remember them talking about planting someone somewhere.He was filled with a puzzle expression on his face. "What are you saying, young master"? I can't remember us talking about planting anyone somewhere." Elmo breathed in and out, before responding. "Yes, we never had that discussion because I only thought of it now." He was right, previously before Richard and Peter came, he hadn't made any plans on planting someone somewhere."Oh." Stuart gasps in understanding. He didn't talk on it, before averting to any question. "Where are you planning to plant Richard into? I don't even understand at all." Stuart wasn't able to
With the matter settled, the conversation shifted to lighter topics. The producer couldn't help but voice his surprise. "You know, Elmo, I've only ever interacted with your subordinate before. I had no idea you were the real investor. This project means a lot to me, and I'm honored to have you onboard."From the moment he had seen Stuart bring Elmo along, he had had a bewildered and surprised look on his face; it was really hard for him to understand any of the reasons for Stuart bringing Elmo along at that time. The initial person he had expected to come along with Stuart wasn't Elmo, instead he was expecting someone else. He knew of Elmo from the film party launch so how could he be expecting him since he was only expecting the CEO.It wasn't until Elmo introduced himself properly before he was able to extinguish the bewildered and surprised look he threw at Elmo before. Even Stuart's ways of behaving to Elmo further fueled and proved Elmo confirmation as the CEO and heir of the Bro
