"Father,I like to speak with Christopher.” Mira replies to her father curtly, almost rudely."Don't you talk to me in a rude tone. How dare you, child?" Mr. Gabriel asks, his anger apparently rising."That's okay, sir." Christopher courteously chips in to mediate between father and daughter. Mira gets upset and walks out on her father while he sighs and shakes his head, adding, "What a bone in the neck."Christopher and Mr. Gabriel will continue their communication as soon as Mira is out of sight. "So your proposal got approved, right? How much are you expecting from the government?" Mira's father asks Christopher, turning towards him and trying to look as serious as possible. Christopher clears his throat and begins, "Well, we are expecting nothing less than five hundred million dollars, owing to the nature of the capital intensivity of the renewable energy industry.”"Hmm,that sounds good. Can I possibly buy shares in this project?" Mira's father asks, hoping to hear positive feed
All the while, Mira's father stayed aside, watching the serious, concise, and yet point-clear conversation unfolding between the two. When they reach an agreement, Christopher pulls out his checkbook, writes the agent a check for two hundred billion, and describes his bank address, which is already on the check for him. He further instructs the agent to take the house documents to the bank for safety."I will give the original documents to the bank manager on your behalf.” Mira's father chips in here, snatching the written check from the agent. "Transfers of such huge property cannot be taken with the hands of levity; don't be silly."."We must see the documents first and then go together to the bank to complete our transaction.""Okay, if that's how you prefer it.” The agent says he is shrugging and picking his phone out of his pocket. He calls the estate office and requests that the sky house's document be delivered to the house location immediately."Okay, sir, I'm on it.” A deep v
In a jiffy, two exotic cars are in full motion towards Princeton Global Bank, with Mister Gabriel's car leading the way. "The restaurant's manager sent a link to their site. We need to pick the services we want." Mr. Gabriel says he clicked on the link to the site, waiting for the site to open while he listened to Christopher. "Let's just have a buffet party with lots of additional food and exotic mocktails.""Okay, that's right," Gabriel says as he opens the five-star restaurant's catalog and begins to click on the products and service options. The bill is accrued at the bottom of the page. "How much will all that cost?" Christopher enquires. "Two hundred thousand dollars." Gabriel replies, trying not to be awed at Christopher's new capacity. "Okay, press send order," Christopher tells Gabriel almost in a command tone, not paying much attention to the screen in Gabriel's hand. He is rather spectating at the sights outside the moving car. "Order successfully placed.” Gabriel c
Chapter 58The agent and his messenger followed Suzy to the reception, and they were well attended to. The agent collects the receipt, saying "you are welcome" and thanking Suzy for coming.Back in the bank manager's office,he continues to make further transactions on Christopher's account."I have also transferred two hundred thousand dollars to the five-star restaurant's bank account. You can ask Suzy for a transaction receipt on your way out, Chris." The manager fondly refers to Christopher as Chris. "Alright, no problem. Thank you for always keeping me happy with your top-notch services."“No need to mention that. We have come a long way together, Chris.” The manager tries to endear Christopher,his seasoned customer, who had quickly risen in status but had also raised the status of the bank with his financial fortune.The two men, Christopher and Mira's father, exchange satisfactory handshakes with the bank manager,who not only exchanges handshakes with gratitude but also rises to
"Ok.kk...ay you.. mean the limo outside?" "Yes, exactly. I mean the limousine outside. How much is it?"."Oh, you mean that? It's just seventy-five billion dollars. Not much, right?" The sales guy adds with a squint and a silly grin on his face."Give me your invoice; my bank manager will pay today. You will send the limo and the receipt to this address tomorrow morning at seven thirty am, unfailingly." Christopher says in a simplistic tone that, pulling out a small piece of paper and his fountain pen from his coat's chest pocket,he writes the address of his new luxury home,his email address, and his phone number on the paper and gives it to the sales guy."Wow, that's a good move, sir. I will send the invoice to your email right away." The sales guy passes the paper to a male receptionist, who together had been looking on and only winking in surprise, as Mr. Gabriel once did again at the mention of the limo and its cost in the course of Christopher's and the sales guy's conversation
The salesman looks straight at the two men and says, "The price for the car is four million dollars, sir."."What!" Mr. Gabriel exclaims. He is confused about why his friend is requesting such an expensive car."But isn't that a bit too much?" Mr. Gabriel asks Christopher.Christopher gives a brief nod to his friend, Mr. Gabriel."We are not here to joke. If you don't have the required funds to pay for the car,please give me a minute to attend to other customers," the car salesman says, his expression and tone signifying that he is not in the mood for any more jokes from the two men."No, don't go anywhere," Christopher tells him, his voice now taking on a more serious and authoritative tone. The salesman recognizes this change of tone and straightens his stance."Alright,are you ready to purchase this car today,sir?" He asks Christopher."Yes,we are here to purchase the car right now.""Do you have the required fund with you right now?" The salesman asks in a tone that betrays a littl
CHAPTER 60 Christopher had organized a mini-party after the success of the proposal. It was amazing the heights he had achieved over the past few months, and he knew there was no stopping. He was engrossed on his phone while the music kept blasting on the speaker until he heard it was time to give a toast. The party was relatively small, and although he had wanted something bigger, the issue of his rivals seemingly discovering this location had kept him at bay. "Let's make a toast!" He mentioned grabbing a bottle of wine. "A toast to the huge success of the proposal." Everyone raised their cups, and while he was about to speak further, he noticed Sam waving in his direction, obviously instructing him about something. He handed the bottle to someone else and walked up to meet Sam, who was at the door. "I just got some information." Sam stated it out loud. "What is it?" He asked. "I think we have got company!" Right before Christopher could comprehend what was happening, the door burst
“The maid told me that you haven’t been touching your food. Do you want to die?” Lawrence asked his gaze in the direction of the food.“Death is more pleasurable at this point than living.” Mira replied with ease.Lawrence realized that she seemed to have given up, and at this point, a mere killing of Mira would simply be in her favor. He didn’t want to kill Mira; he wanted Mira to suffer so much pain.“You really think I am going to persuade you to eat your food? If you starve to death, it is your choice.” Lawrence finished off and left the dungeon afterwards.Once Lawrence was out of sight, Mira realized that he didn’t have human sympathy. It was slowly beginning to appear to her that Lawrence would be the first person to celebrate her death. At first, Mira believed that death would be the ultimate price for all her suffering, but she refused that option when she realized that she had every reason to live. Mira knew that she wasn’t going to die and allowed her abductor to be gratefu
