Alex chuckled. "Actually, young man, I think you should be the one to lick my shoes." The entire place went mute and then suddenly, they all bursted out in laughter. The gangster was sitted with his friends and they could not hold the laugh that erupted from them. "Did this delivery boy just say that you should lick his shoes?" One of his friends asked. "How can such a disgusting man utter such words?" "I bet you have no idea who you are talking to like that, do you?" The gangster replied. After he saw that Alex was not apologetic, he immediately stopped laughing. He no longer found it funny that a delivery boy could talk to him like that. He thought it was very degrading and the more he thought about it, the angrier he became. "Are you trying to humiliate me?" He said. "Do you know that I can send my boys to pound on you right now?!" He shouted and immediately, he boys rounded up Alex, placing him in a circle. Alex did not even flinch. He stood still, with a calm smile on his

The door flew open, and it was almost knocked off its hinges as Caroline and Jasmine bounced into Susan's apartment in anger. "Susan!" They called out when they didn't see her in her living room. "She has to be in the bedroom," Jasmine suggested. "let's go!" The woman said with anger and huffed into her bedroom. "There you are!" Caroline said when she saw her sitting on her bed, fiddling with her phone and smiling. "Let me understand you. You actually left us there and you have the nerve to still be here, smiling?!" Caroline asked enraged. She was more angry than Jasmine. After all, she was the one who was embarrassed by Alex as well. "Don't you people know that breaking and entering is a crime punishable by the law?" She said casually, as if she had not inflicted pain on her friends. "Are you actually talking to us in that manner?!" Jasmine asked. "Susan, you left us to die! Why couldn't you tell the man that came to save you to do the same for us?" "Because at the end of the
"I am telling you the honest truth. The is no way that this man will be able to last long in this company." It was the voice of a man. "I know right. I mean, where exactly did they even pick him from for him to actually think that he can survive in a universe like this. He is just a lowlife with nothing to show for himself. " The second voice was also the voice of a man. "I know right. I am telling you the honest truth. That man is going to fall like a pack of cards. I am giving him three months and he will bring this company to ruins. He will use his own hands and destroy what his uncle has spent years trying to build.""I mean, just look at the way he was dressed today. So casually! That does not show any sign of someone who wants to do great things for this company.""I know right. I just wished everyone could see what we see and not be blinded by him." "Look, don't bother yourself, okay. Soon he will start doing nonsense and when that start, we will inform our boss to get rid o
Alex moves out with one intention at the back of his mind. To ensure that the professor is made to suffer for what he had done. As he moved towards the one person that will help him achieve his goals, he bumps into Nathan and his gang on the road. "Oh hey Albert, where are you off to in such a haste?" Nathan asks. "Not wanting to be distracted by a bunch of boys, Alex tried to move away from their midst but two of the boys moved in front of him, blocking his steps. In the twinkle of an eye, Nathan tripped and poured his orange juice all over Alex. Angrily, Alex lifted his eyes and gave him a death glare. He knew like he knew the back of his hand that Nathan did not do that by mistake and the smirk in his eyes confirmed that it was not an accident. "Oops!" He exclaimed. "Oh I am so sorry. I should have been more careful of my drink. But at least now we can confirm the saying, that trash do always love to be together," Nathan said, smirking. "You idiot, what the hell do you think
Alex jolts back to reality and continues to hear Susan raining insults on Nathan. He had completely black out of their conversation because he knew very well that everything she was saying were lies to try and get back into his life. "Susan, you bitch!" Nathan bellowed. "After everything I have done for you, you had the audacity to actually embarrass me in this manner. I am telling you the honest truth. I will make sure that I make your life a living hell. You are going to regret embarrassing me in the way that you just did. Trust me, even if it's the last thing I do, I will ensure that I ridicule you." Nathan said angrily, knowing fully well that his reputation had been ruined. Now everyone knew him for exactly who and what he was. The was no umbrella for him to hide under anymore. He could not tell the lies he always told anymore. No one would believe him. "Oh please daddy's boy, I know you can't do anything to me so please, just stop trying to do anything." Susan said arrogantly.
Susan gasped as the cold drink ran down her back into his maroon coloured shirt and down her spine. She turned slowly to see who had the audacity to do such a despicable thing to her. Her brain tried to comprehend what her eyes were seeing. It could not be true. "Jasmine?!" She asked in shocked when the figure of the person before her still did not change. "Yes," she answered with a creepy smile on her face. "What the actual hell is this? Why would you do this?" "Well, Susan in case you don't know you are on the ground, begging a man who has absolutely nothing and you are asking me why I did what I did? If you must know, I did it to reset your brain. It is very obvious that you are confused and all so you need this to be able to think correctly and that's exactly what I did." "And that's why you poured cold juice all over my body?" She asked again. "Yes. It is to help you think properly. This is Alex. He is a nobody and you have the audacity to be on the floor begging him in fro
The man kept mute for five minutes and when Alex noticed that the man was either out to waste his time or he wasn't interested in his offer at all, he said"Well sir, it seems this offer is not interesting to you and at this point, my hand is hurting. So I will just have to take this money and give it to charity. Do have a nice day." Alex said and got up to leave.."Wait!" The man called back. "How do I know that that check isn't stolen?" "Well if it's a stolen check, when you go to check in this cash, it is going to be declined because of the signature. But for me to actually write this out for you, it means I know too well that this is mine is I am more than ready to bet on it. But since you don't want it, I will take it away," Alex concluded and opened the door. "Wait!" The man called back again when he saw that Alex was actually serious. If he wasn't, he would not threaten to leave with such amount of money. But it didn't make sense to him. After all, the man was dressed like a
