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
Alexander looked at the wine glass that Steven was offering him, stared at it for a couple of seconds, and then took it. He had read enough of the two men’s auras to have no issues assuming that they didn’t have any malicious intent in their minds toward him.Even if they did and they planned to get him drunk and defenseless against their manipulation, then, for the fifteen-minute time allowance he had given, which at that point only had eleven minutes left, they’d need to feed him something with a lot of alcoholic content.If they did that then he would easily observe the taste and smell and not drink more than a sip which would cause their plan to flop on its stomach.They could try and drug him but the wine bottle looked like it was sealed and his wine glass looked clear of any particles, so there couldn’t be any hidden substance that would affect his mind.Even if they did manage to somehow drug him then all Alexander had to do was outsmart them within the short time of mental cl
Both men talked about starting a bank together and how much it would take to get the business off the ground and running.Fifty million dollars each which makes a total of one hundred million dollars.Chris was tired of being the CEO of someone else’s company. In fact, from the very beginning, he had taken up the position of CEO with the mindset of exiting the company one day and starting his very own banking franchise.Using all the knowledge and relationships he had amassed over the years, his bank was going to flourish way faster than the ones before him.Now, all he needed were two things and those included the money that Alexander had and Alexander’s unknown multimillionaire status. It was hard to find someone with Alexander’s amount of wealth, who also wasn’t known by the public, and for Chris to not know who Alexander was when they first met then it must mean that many high-status individuals didn’t know who the young multimillionaire was either. This made Alexander a hidden
Alexander looked at Steven, whose head nod confirmed what Chris had just said and that he could get Alexander everything he came to the bank for without having to wait, which was good because, after withdrawing the fifty thousand dollars cash, Alexander would have to stand in another line and wait, who knows how long until it gets to his turn to speak with customer support.Chris and Steven had just offered him a way to get what he wanted to be done without having to stand in any line, and he was going to utilize that opportunity.“I had come to withdraw fifty thousand dollars, which was what started this whole mess, but looking back now, I’m happy it happened because, thanks to it, I’ve gotten a new business partner,” Alexander said and Chris smirked proudly. “Like I said, there’s always a blessing in every curse” Chris commented.“So, withdraw fifty thousand dollars. Got it. Anything else, sir?” Steven asked. “Yes. I also came to get a debit card. I’m tired of needing to make tran
