Christopher thought about it for a while, but he knew that human life mattered more than any other task.Drawing his last breath, he shot a quick stare at the resident and back to the direction of the sound.He had already made his decision as he turned away from the building in the direction of the sound.As he walked, the way that he led seemed to go darker and steeper, sending cold chills of fear down his spine.His heart was beating so loudly that the sound of it was rising up to his ears.Finally, he got to a really deserted area and caught a lady in the company of two other men who were already losing the tie around their belts.Streams of sweat flooded from her eyes almost immediately as she continued to plead, but they would not listen to a single word that she had to say."Shut up, your bitch!" They growled at her, giving her a slap on the face.Christopher carefully assessed the situation; they were armed, but it was not too heavy. Just a dagger and a pocket knife.But he kn
Eric's face was hot red with anger, while as for Christopher, he was already fed up for the day and not ready to take any shit from anyone. Eric raised his head and took a glance at him from his head to his toe. He didn't even look like someone who had any prominent social status. Eric thought that there was certainly no way that he would be able to get the company. "You think I am here for children's play? What are you trying to do? To mock me or something." He gloated. "Can you even afford three square meals daily to talk less about acquiring a company?" He continued. "Says someone who could not manage a company and wanted to sell it off?" Christopher responded. There, hate and anger between the two of them brewed even more. Just then, a cracking sound came from the door that seemed to avert their hateful glares for a while. A lady walked through the door, and, pairing further in her direction, Christopher was hit by the sudden sense of recognition. "Sister. Where have you b
Eric rushed down to the phone and snapped it off from the hands of Rachael."What did you just say?" He inquired once again, wanting to hear the words for himself."Sir, I said we just got a transfer of about one hundred thousand dollars. Is there a problem?" Her voice seemed worried from the other end.He opened up his mouth to speak, but his words soon broke out into stutters, and he ended the call on the spot.Now his gaze was fixed on Christopher, as nobody knew what to do or say. Eric opened his mouth to speak again, but words failed him almost immediately."Now that it's been confirmed, can we go ahead with the process so that you will stop wasting my time? I don't have much of it to spare." He said that, and Eric nodded his head swiftly."We would do just that." Eric was finally able to hide the shame and embarrassment that clouded his mind.He pulled away from the point where he was standing while Rachael went ahead to entertain him.She was gradually recovering from the shock
There was no harm in making friends, so he gave her his card, after which he got into the Uber, and they blew off.It was already running late since it took a lot of time before the stuff could be prepared.The next point of call was his dorm. Even though the place seemed awkward, that was the only place that he could rest his head.He was thinking about getting a house on campus soon enough so that he was going to live a more comfortable life from now on.He decided to tear open the school's group chat and see what was going on there. As usual, Kenny was the center of attention there.They discussed the forthcoming convocation, where the prom king and queen were going to be revealed."This year is not going to be that interesting since we already know the winners of the cause."Meanwhile, a few pictures popped right before him, and looking at the person who posted them, he could already tell that they were silver.The pictures were the ones that she had taken with her new boyfriend.
The panel that only he could see appeared right before him once again.There was a sudden flinch in his facial expression as he waited patiently for the task to load.[Accept a business deal and get a new set of clothes.][ Task duration: Twenty-four hours.][ Reward for this task: Host would get a total of one VIP point and the amount used to accomplish the task would be doubled.][ System Notes: Notification would be issued once each step of the task is completed to always keep the host alert.][ System Navigation closed \\ Countdown for task begins //Twenty-three hours, fifty-nine minutes, fifty-five seconds left for the task to be accomplished ]A broad smile hovered on the face of Christopher as he read the task. He was already planning to get a new set of clothes in the first place even before the system made mention of it.As for the business partnership, even though he had mixed feelings about it, he was going to accept it anyway, at least, he was going to get some results fo
But just as he was about to spit out another word from his mouth, he heard footsteps from behind him, making him turn around slowly.A smallish sales attendant with triangle-framed glances and a broad smile walked gradually towards him.Her steps seemed disorganized as she was trying hard to maintain her professionalism. But even with all her efforts, he could see through her.She was nervous.The other sales agents behind the desk paired up, and a long hiss escaped from their mouths.Willow was a new sales agent, even though she had been there for over three months. Unlike most of the other workers who had been there for years now,.In their words, she was inexperienced and was never going to make a sale, even if she continued with her attitude.By this, they meant selling off her body to richer clients. But she has dignity, and even though she needed the money for her family, especially for her sick mother, she was not going to sell her body.Even her mother would never want her dau
Tina flung a deadly frown in her direction almost immediately."Just take a good look at him. Does he look like someone who would be able to afford that dress?" Tina said it with a tint of mockery in her voice.Ever since she had come into the place, she had always been humiliated, so it was her right to have the dress."A failed trial is exactly what is going to prove that," Willow responded.But even though her tone was strong, Christopher could already detect the strange flutter.She would certainly not be able to hold on for a long time."I don't think we should give him that trial."But Willow was still not buying her idea, nor was Tina ready to throw away such a nice bargain.Their hearts raced faster than they had initially as they moved closer to each other slowly.Willow wanted to pull the dress away from her, but she didn't know exactly what she was going to do."Are you trying to fight with your seniors?" Tina's imposing air made her shrink, right to the point that she was
Immediately, the eyes of the manager met with the ripped dress, and everyone else in the room shivered almost immediately. Their hearts raced faster at the same time, knowing how much trouble they would be getting themselves into."Does someone care to explain what is going on here?" He roared, his voice echoing throughout the hall.Their eyes were all pointed toward Tina, and even though they didn't spit out a single word from their mouths, he could already tell what was going on.His eyes flung in her direction almost immediately as he went ahead to say it with a deadly glare on his face."Miss Tina, you are a high staffer, and I have always expected more from you. Do you care to inform me what's going on now?" He inquired swiftly.She shivered, opening her mouth to speak, but words soon failed her.She turned around slowly towards Christopher and pointed at him. "He caused all of this. He ripped it apart. He was trying to take it away." She shot out the words at multiple intervals.
