"Fifty thousand dollars?!" Christopher exclaimedHis eyes couldn't believe the figure that was right in front of them. Why would he when his impression of Alexander was that of a poor servant boy who didn't and shouldn’t have a penny to his name?However, what was written boldly on the withdrawal slip was going against his beliefs and right now Christopher felt like his world was shattering to pieces but the rude bank teller wasn’t going to stand for that.He grimaced and then quickly looked somewhere else on the slip.The first thing he had seen after taking the withdrawal slip from Alexander was the amount to be withdrawn and it was so surprising that it conflicted with his impression of the young multimillionaire.After regaining his bearings, he started to think that he had made a mistake and now his new mindset was that Frederick or Starr Dove or both had sent Alexander to come get some money for them.That had to be what was happening, but strangely, no matter how much Christoph
"How dare you do that to my withdrawal slip?! I had to borrow a pen from the person that used to stand in front of me to fill it but you had the guts to tear it apart? Have you gone mad--? Alexander asked but Christopher cut him off.Christopher yawned"Get angry all you want, there's nothing a servant boy like you can do about what I did. Like I said, I’m not going to sit here and participate in your stupid little prank so get out while I’m still being patient. I've warned you once and I won't warn you again. Mess with me and I'll call the security right now" Christopher warned then looked at one of the security guards who was stationed by the mechanical doorAlexander followed Christopher’s eyes and looked at the big, tall, and muscular man whom Christopher was using the threaten him.Alexander groaned then took a deep breath and sighed again. He was doing his best to not escalate the situation beyond what it already was because this wasn't just any random place.This was the bank h
Christopher smirked. He was overconfident, thinking that he had gotten a one-up on Alexander with the revelation he had just made, but sadly, he was dead wrong.The young multimillionaire who was standing at the other side of the counter wasn’t the same helpless underclassman he used to know.Alexander had grown tremendously within a very short period and that was all thanks to the secret weapon he had up his sleeve. A secret weapon that would turn any predicament in his favor.To Christopher’s surprise, the young multimillionaire, who he had thought would be shaking in the knees, also smirked.Alexander looked at Lucy and said “Please hurry up while doing what he told you to. I’d actually like to speak to the CEO of the bank”Lucy was confused. She couldn’t believe that Alexander still wanted her to get the CEO and take him there, even though he knew that Christopher and the man shared a close family relationship.However, since Alexander was the customer and it was his request to se
Alexander’s eyes widened. He was taken aback by the sentence he had just heard come from Christopher’s mouth. With how cocky Christopher had been acting so far, Alexander had predicted that the rude bank teller was going to say some useless nonsense to the CEO of the bank. Not once, did he ever imagine that it was going to be something so ridiculous. The CEO grunted and then looked at Alexander, who seemed like he was more surprised than bothered about what was said.He stroked his beard and grunted skeptically, then he returned his focus to Christopher. “Are you saying that keeping this customer's account open is less beneficial to the bank than the other option which is leaving it as is?” The CEO asked. Christopher nodded energetically.“That’s right, uncle. This bastard is a poor servant who isn’t even allowed to have pocket money. I know this because his master’s son and daughter used to brag about it all those years I used to be in school with them, and I’m certain that it re
Because banks use the money their customers put into their accounts to do other businesses, a stagnant account was beneficial to no one. Not the bank and neither to the customer. The other customers might not have understood what the CEO meant by growth when he made his statement but Alexander, who was very smart and quite knowledgeable when it came to business, got the gist easily.The young multimillionaire chuckled and then shrugged. “You don’t have a problem with your account getting terminated?” The CEO asked and from the side, Christopher smirked.He thought that he had been victorious in his shenanigans. “If that’s what you guys want to do then who am I to challenge it? After all, it is your business—“ Alexander said then his eyes widened when he realized something.The CEO furrowed his eyebrows, intrigued by Alexander’s sudden pause.“What’s the matter? Are you having second thoughts about what you were saying?”Alexander crossed his arms and kissed his teeth.“A little,” h
Hearing the figure that Alexander just called irritated and infuriated Christopher beyond imagination. He got enraged to the point that he banged both fists on his keyboard, causing a few keys to dislodge and fly out which shocked everyone and drew their attention to him.“What’s the matter with you—?” The manager asked Christopher but was cut short.“I don’t care if I have to go to prison for this but I’m going to kill that bastard if he doesn’t run out of here within the next ten seconds!” Christopher threatened.“Christopher, watch your mouth! You’re in the presence of customers so don’t give them a bad impression of—“ the manager cautioned but was cut off again.“I can’t believe you people are standing here, listening to the nonsense coming out of that worm’s mouth, and are allowing him to keep talking” Christopher complained, standing and clenching his fists like he was about to go over the counter and beat Alexander to a pulp.Alexander looked at the rude bank teller then focus
Alexander looked at the CEO whose invite seemed to come out of nowhere, and he was hesitant, skeptical about accepting it. What did the man have to tell him that warranted going all the way to his office? The young multimillionaire wondered.All he went to the bank for was to withdraw cash for his lodging and some other miscellaneous expenses, so was this going to be another inconvenience that he didn’t plan for or wanted? Alexander thought as he stared at the CEO and manager.Being smart enough to read the room, the CEO could instantly tell from Alexander’s demeanor that he was apprehensive. “I promise this meeting will be worth your time and all I need is about fifteen minutes of it” the CEO promised, and Alexander groaned. He looked at the wall-clock behind all of them, and he saw that he still had ample time on his hand and could fit the fifteen minutes the CEO was asking for into his schedule.Finally, Alexander conceded.He took a deep breath and sighed.“Alright. Just fiftee
They got to the office door which had the word “Manager” on it, and suddenly, the manager took charge.He swiftly grabbed the door handle, inserted the key into the hole, and unlocked it. He pushed the door open for the two men who wanted to utilize the room for their meeting then went inside first.“Hmm, nice office” Alexander commented, staring at the interior design of the office and being impressed by it.Alexander had only been in one office his entire life and that was the office of the Coker Wake High School’s principal, during the day of his enrollment.He never got into any trouble that required him to be called in for disciplinary action or warning, so his one time going to the principal’s office was his first and only time entering an office.The only thing that would have forced him into an office was issues with his health, but fortunately, he had always been a healthy kid and as such never needed to see the doctor.As for serious injuries that required going to see a med
