"I don't need a shit from what you say." Gary told Mr Taylor immediately.However, Mr. Taylor cleared his throat and adjusted his progressive glasses into place before he continued. "Young master, I understand that this clause in your grandfather's will may come as a surprise, but it's essential that you consider it seriously. You see, in order to inherit the family estate, you must be married within the next six months or you lose the will.""He made arrangements to get it transferred to the orphanage if you don't comply.""Six months! Losing or gaining, is none of my business." Gary yelled at the top of his voice, and of course hitting the table in addition.Mr Taylor had his heart shop a bit. He could tell Gary was already at his peak. "I think your grandfather only set that principle just to ensure you remain responsible.""Responsible! Did you just mention the words as though it meant nothing? I guess you should step into my shoes and have a feel of how that plays."He said soft
The name in the headline was all too familiar, Steve Anderson. He was sure about whom it was, but then to calm his curiosity, Gary clicked on the article, his eyes scanning the words that revealed more details about the said Steve Anderson's acquisition of ZR Biotech. The moment he discovered that the person who had taken over ZR Biotech was none other than Steve, his former butler, his mind flashed back to the events that had unfolded when he caught Steve red-handed. Every word, every look, every betrayal replayed in his mind like a movie.The article delved into his accomplishments, highlighting his successful track record in turning around struggling companies. Gary's grip on the steering wheel tightened even more as he read about his ruthless business strategies. This made Gary wonder when and how long Steve had been in the business world without making it known to the Carter's family.A range of emotions surged within Gary, a cocktail of anger, betrayal, and disbelief. The p
The moment Gary opened the letter his breath caught in his throat, and he struggled to comprehend the shocking message, his eyes darting from side to side while he read over and over again.In disbelief he mumbled to himself and said. "No... this can't be true. I must be mistaken."To confirm his doubts, he read the letter again, each word sinking deeper into his consciousness. The letter stated that he should evacuate the estate before the next three days.Immediately, a mix of anger, confusion, and betrayal crossed his face. His eyes narrowed, seething with rage as he recognized the anonymous identity beneath the letter."Steve. It has to be him." He mumbled to himself."I won't let him get away with this. I'll make him pay for what he's done." He vowed to himself.Suddenly, a chilling thought crept into his mind. He immediately reached for his phone and dialled Alice's number."Boss, is everything alright?"Without deviating, he said to her immediately with a tone of urgency. "A
The card drew his attention, he felt inquisitive to know what it was.Cursing under his breath, he immediately bent down to pick up the fallen card. The brief look at the card, the elegant font on the card revealed it to be the business card his lawyer had given him.The memories of that time flooded back into his mind, the bitter arguments, the endless negotiations, and the overwhelming frustration.He remembered his lawyer's words as he handed him the card, "Young master, if you ever change your mind, if you ever want to discuss anything further, there's a lot we still have to unravel, a lot of secrets left to be revealed." At the time, he had brushed off those words, too consumed by his anger and determination to prove himself. But now, as he stared at the card, contempt filled his gaze.Without a second thought, Gary tore the business card in half, then ripped it into smaller pieces. Anger surged through his veins, fueled by the bitter memories."I don't need any of you," he mut
A knock on the door interrupted his thoughts, and he hurriedly made his way to answer it. As he swung the door open, Mr. Taylor entered, his briefcase in hand. "Mr Carter! I knew you will…" Gary's eyes were filled with a mixture of hope and apprehension as he gestured for the lawyer to take a seat."Just have a seat, Mr Taylor." Gary said, turning around arrogantly. After which he also had a seat.Sensing the tension in the room, Gary straightened his posture and mustered up the courage to ask the question burning within him."So what other condition do you have attached to the will?" Gary's voice quivered slightly, betraying his anxiety.Mr. Taylor paused for a moment, meeting Gary's gaze before responding, "Mr Carter, there's nothing more in the will aside from the requirement to get married.""It's the marriage or nothing else."A look of disbelief washed over Gary's face as his shoulders slumped. He ran his fingers through his hair, his mind racing with thoughts of where he woul
Gary stood on the uppermost part of his new apartment, relishing the panoramic view of the city. The cool evening breeze gently caressed his skin, offering a respite from the weight of his thoughts. His hands remained tucked in his pockets, his mind a mix of contemplation and anticipation for the days to come.Lost in his own world, Gary was suddenly jolted back to reality by the sound of his phone chiming. With a quick reflex, he retrieved the device from his pocket, his eyes immediately drawn to the caller ID—Mr. Taylor. Without hesitation, he swiped to answer the call."Hello, Mr. Taylor. Any new developments?" Gary inquired, a tinge of curiosity in his voice.Mr. Taylor's voice emanated from the other end of the line. "Yes, young master, I have an update for you. The wedding has been scheduled to take place in three days."Gary's eyes widened in surprise, his heart skipping a beat. "Three days? Is this some kind of joke?" he blurted out, unable to conceal his astonishment.Mr
After the exhilarating wedding party, Gary and his new bride, Laura, found themselves in the quiet intimacy of their car on the way home. Gary couldn't help but feel a mixture of surprise and curiosity as he looked at Laura, now his wife. She had been his college crush, and he never expected to see her standing beside him as his bride. Unable to contain his astonishment, he decided to inquire further."Did you know I was going to be the groom before you agreed to this wedding?" Gary asked, his voice filled with a mix of surprise and intrigue.Laura's eyes sparkled with a hint of mischief as she turned towards Gary. "Yes, I knew," she admitted, a playful smile gracing her lips.Gary's eyebrows shot up in surprise. "How? I mean, we haven't seen each other since college, and I never mentioned anything about getting married."Laura's smile softened, and she reached out to gently hold Gary's hand. "I saw a picture of you before the wedding," she explained. "You know after college, my fat
The morning sun cast a soft glow through the curtains as Laura, dressed in her professional attire, stood by the side of the bed where Gary was still lying. She gently shook him awake, a bittersweet smile playing on her lips."Good morning, Gary. I wanted to let you know that I'll be leaving for work now." She said softly in her tiny feminine voice.Immediately, Gary rubbing his eyes and yawning, looking up at Laura, his expression still heavy with sleep."Do you want me to drive you to work? I can rearrange my schedule if you need me to." He responded with a hitch of concern.But Laura was quick to place a hand on his shoulder. "Thank you, babe, but it's not necessary. I know you have other things to take care of today. I'll be fine going by myself. I just needed to inform you so you don't look worried when you don't find me."Gary nodded reluctantly. "Alright, that seems fine, but wouldn't you be castigated at work?""You know! Resuming after your wedding, no honeymoon?" "Umm… that
