"What!" Mick's dad shouted in astonishment, his face filled with bewilderment. The ring made of jade was incredibly intricate to carve. Besides the challenges involved in obtaining the ring, the exorbitant amount of money spent on it was staggering. $90,000 was no small sum, so it was only natural for everyone to be astounded. The elderly man was likewise flabbergasted upon hearing Mick's statement. It seemed utterly implausible that someone could have entered the mansion and stolen the ring. Mick had been entrusted with the ring's safekeeping until the moment it was to be presented to the old man. Hence, the old man was perplexed as to how it could have been stolen. The old man frowned as he turned to Mick. "How did it get stolen?" "Grandfather, I'm as puzzled as you are. I have no idea how the ring got stolen," Mick replied, trying to maintain his composure despite the mounting pressure from his grandfather's stern gaze." Hearing his reply, the old man's face turned even colder.
Just as he was almost about to grab Elmo's attire wanting to take the Jade ring out of his pocket. Elmo who already notice him about striking towards him quickly diverted to one side which made Mick almost stagger behind.The old man who saw the situation getting more intense couldn't help but frowned. How could something like this be happening at his party? His grandson was acting so stupid instead of trying to resolve this issue in a quicker way. He stepped forward and shouted loudly. "Mick, what are you doing?!" He yelled angrily, he had never imagined his grandson to be acting totally out of line.Mick quickly straightened up after hearing his grandfather's furious voice. "Grand… grandfather." He wasn't able to complete his words, as the old man yelled at him even more."Shut up!" The old man rose, all he felt like doing was to slap some sense into his grandson. What an insensible grandson. He didn't bother glancing at Mick for even a second as he turned to Elmo who was still sea
Everyone's eyes widened as they gaze at the item on Mick's hands, it was really a ring!Their shocked expression quickly changed to that of anger towards Elmo. They were utterly angry that Elmo had wasted their time saying he wasn't the one who stole the ring, instead of him just admitting.[ You are such a wrecked idiot! Who do you think you are to waste our time, when you clearly were the one who stole the ring?]The maddened expression on their face was quite visible as they grit their teeth on seeing Elmo still as calm as ever. Frustration and bitterness were thrown at Elmo's calm composure. They felt just a fool when they noticed Elmo wasn't affected by their harsh words."You.." A sinister flush gush on their faces.They had never seen someone as shameless as Elmo before. How could he still act as though he wasn't caught with the ring. His expression was utterly unacceptable!Mick who has been watching the ridicule and insult being thrown at Elmo couldn't help but smile. Healso
Mick felt completely frustrated seeing his grandfather admitted to the fact that he knows about the consequences."Grand.. grandfather what are you saying?" He questioned and when he saw his grandfather wasn't replying, he turned angrily to Elmo. "You.. Do you think because you talk of consequences, I will be punished? Phew..you must be dreaming because I know you can't do any darn thing to me." He spat, as he knew Elmo wasn't rich nor was he an influential person in the society so how could he make him pay by just calling a mere police who will just bail him out immediately.Elmo chuckled with mockery in his eyes. "Really? But I have done something already. The police are here so what do you mean by "I can't do anything to you?"" I'm sure your grandfather isn't someone who supports his family wrong doing so why won't you be punished?" A mischievous grin appeared on his face as he asked." Hey don't you try to mess with me! You are nobody to me and if you think I'll be detained in p
"Thank you, and please feel free to visit me whenever you have the opportunity.""Mick clenched his teeth upon hearing the conversation between his grandfather and Elmo. It infuriated him that a lowly and unknown cleaner had the audacity to potentially ruin his reputation by causing his arrest."Elmo didn't flinch at Mick's angry and hateful gaze, Instead he turned to the police in charge with a gaze that shows he should leave with the criminal, which is Mick.The head of police wasn't oblivious not to understand Elmo's intense gaze, so he quickly spoke, "Let's leave now!"Mick was a little anxious and scared of being locked in prison for six months, but he didn't date to say a word so as not to aggravate Elmo temper.He was led outside with the police behind him.Seeing, Mick has left, Elmo cleared his voice and spoke. "We will also be taking our leave now." They both bowed their head in form of respect to the old man, receiving a nod from him, they left the mansion.After leaving the
Hearing the man's furious voice, he turned his head to the lady who was nestled against his shoulder. Her droopy eyes were shut tight, indicating that she had fallen asleep. He let out a frustrated sigh as he pondered how to handle this bald man while the lady continued to rest her head on his shoulder. Lost in thought, he noticed a hand on his shoulder. He lifted his head and witnessed the bald man poised to throw a punch at him. Acting swiftly, he sidestepped, causing the punch to sail through the air. Elmo swiftly dropped the woman on the bench outside of the store and turned his gaze towards the bald man. The man grew even more enraged and lunged at Elmo with full intensity, aiming to topple him with his own body. But before he could reach him, Elmo executed a kick to the man's chest, causing him to howl in agony. The kick was so excruciating that the man thought he was on the brink of departing from this world. As Elmo advanced towards him, a look of terror washed over the man
She scratched the back of her hair, wanting to just slap herself hard for lying. Her eyes filled with embarrassment as she replied."Yes, I remembered now. Thank you." She finally said."You don't need to thank me, I would do that to any other person who was in your situation at that time." Elmo said." But that doesn't mean I'm not bad at you for changing my clothes while I was asleep!" She yelled after she remembered how she was wearing a man's shirt; his own shirt!"" Then, be my guest." Elmo, said shortly."What!" The lady immediately understood what Elmo meant; it means he didn't care whether or not she was angry. "Ha you are really so arrogant! I need to beat you to a pulp to set your head straight. Just because I thanked you doesn't mean I'm so gentle or an easy going person who doesn't beat someone, I'll beat you to death!" She screamed even more seeing Elmo still seated as though no one was shouting at him."Why aren't you talking?" She finally asked, seeing no reaction from
The gaze Elmo possesses at the moment made them quickly compose themselves. It was bad of them for staring at Elmo for long so their face flushed with embarassment. Elmo could see the composed look that fell on everyone so he also changed his expression to a cool look. "Let begin." His hoarse voice grew in the ears of everyone present at the conference room. They all sat properly on hearing his words. Elmo crooked his finger towards Stuart wanting him to begin the agenda of the meeting. "Start." Seeing the signal from him,Stuart looked at some files before passing them gently to the front of Elmo's table, he only spoke when the files weas placed for Elmo to see. "Everyone are aware that in the economic report of last six month, the Lux company are actually having a little setback in the growth and development of the company and the owner which is Mr Lucas is planning to sell off the company before experience a more greater loss and basically, everyone are aware of us being one o
