“Excuse me, I am here to get a phone” Harrison sneered, feeling irritated.

“A phone? Does this place look like a joke to you? What can you afford here?” the agent replied.

“He can't even buy the trash can, yet he is saying nonsense?” the other agent spoke.

“I am here to buy a phone. Is this how you attend to customers?” Harrison was stunned by their sudden disgust at him.

They didn't try to understand if he could afford one or try to give him a chance. They just branded him as someone who couldn't afford a thing in the shop?

“Where is the customer? Who I see here is a beggar. Isn't that dollar bill okay for you? How about two or three?” the man grinned, flashing off his teeth.

“Send him out of this place. You shouldn't waste your money on someone like him. Don't worry, he will come begging. He looks like he hasn't eaten for days” the other said.

“How much is your salary?” Harrison asked.

“Ten thousand dollars. Isn't it quite big enough to sustain your life and give you a better livin

    “Hello Ramon, I have something I want you to do,” Harrison said after typing the number on the new phone and dialing it. When it got across, Ramon recognized his voice quickly.“Young master, you changed your phone?” Ramon asked in surprise.“Yes, I was humiliated in the hotel. The guards broke it”.“You mean, in sterling hotel? Your hotel? They humiliated you?”“Yes, I want the receptionist and the guards fired immediately”“Yes young master, I will have it done immediately”Harrison smiled. That would serve as a perfect payback for what they had done. He wanted to go home but then he wanted to see the looks on their faces after they would be fired. After all, he was standing on the opposite side of the hotel, so he crossed back to wait for the drama that was going to happen.——-Inside sterling hotelThe receptionist kept a smile on her face as she attended to other high-class customers. She had forgotten about what had happened before. Everything went back to normal until when the

    Ring! Ring!A call came in, disturbing Rachel who was furious. She rushed towards her phone only to see it was her mom who was addressed as the grandmother of the family. Seeing her call made Rachel tense. She instantly knew something must be wrong or something must have happened.Quickly she picked up the call.“Grandmother” she called out with a smile but the tone she heard over the phone made her serious.“Have you seen the news?” The woman asked, almost as though she was yelling.“The news? I haven’t watched TV for a while, Grandmother” Rachel replied. It wasn't clear to her why grandmother was saying such things at times like this. There are other issues to attend to rather than watching TV.“You fool, switch it on now. After you have seen what I am talking about, you call me” she yelled and hung up the phone. Rachel trembled. She feared she must have done something and that would mean she would incur grandmother's wrath. “What’s it? What happened?” Stephen, who was impatiently

  • Hidden Fortune’s Heir   We were called by grandmother?

    ——Harrison got out of the house with his wife wearing the same bargained clothes he always does. For the past few days, he never thought about buying clothes for himself. Rather, his wife was his priority. He had wanted to get her one from the mall he bought, but the call they received came too urgent. He had no choice but to go quickly with his wife, even though he wasn’t pleased with it.Caroline was quiet by the side. She said no words. Her head was full of the thought of why they were being called. Her stepmom never wanted her for any reason. The way Stephen spoke also alerted her that something might be wrong.Harrison hailed a cab and they got in. His wife's mood didn’t please him. He wanted to cheer her up but realizing they were going to that house, he couldn’t even bring himself to say anything.Shortly after, the cab stopped at the villa, and they hopped off. Harrison quickly handed him some dollars before they walked into the house.As soon as they entered, standing by the

    Everyone was silent as Grandmother was on the phone. They knew her too well to create a disturbance when she was this serious. Her wrath always comes deadly and would affect the family's wages too greatly.“Grandmother,” Rachel said.“Switch on your laptop, it’s connected to mine. I can’t come over but will address the matter in a live video call” she said while Rachel quickly rushed towards her laptop and brought it down to the living room. She placed it on the table after opening it for everyone to see.The screen popped up and a woman in her late sixties came into view. Though she was old, her skin was still glistening like a teenager. She had a solemn look on her face, and immediately everyone bowed to greet her.“Good morning Grandmother” Everyone greeted, setting aside the hate they had towards Harrison.“Where is Linda? Why can’t I see her here” Grandmother scouted the place with her eyes but wasn’t able to find one person. She had requested for everyone to be here, yet one per

    “Forgive me, grandmother. We were too ignorant to consider your health before raising our voices. We are sorry” Harrison spoke, startling everyone.However, Rachel, who was above them, ran out of words to say in such a situation, but Harrison was able to come up with words that seemed to have soothe grandmother. Looking at her, Rachel could see grandmother was no longer pissed as she was.Quickly she spoke to regain Grandmother's good side. “Grandmother, I am sorry my kids and son-in-law got too lousy. I will make sure it never happens again” She bowed, but grandmother looked uninterested in her and faced Harrison.Rachel fumed but had to stay quiet in the meantime. Her eyes were on Harrison the whole time, thinking of how to counter him.“Why do you think Caroline can do better?” Grandmother asked, looking at Harrison.“Compared to others, I think Caroline's method would be better. We know she is very respectful and if she can be the one to be the face of the family, then I think ste

    The morning arrived so fast. Linda had prepared for the important meeting she had with sterling cooperation. She made sure to dress in her finest yet in a way to seduce anyone with her looks.She was wearing an empire waist dress which cost a fortune. The side of the dress was slit a bit, exposing her thighs. A jade necklace was sitting on her neck, matching the color of her eyes. She was just too perfect for the eyes. Anyone who saw her wouldn’t help but drool.Stepping out of her room, she came across Stephen first. Though he was angry that he wasn’t the one going but her. Since she was his sister, it was better she was the one rather than Caroline.“You better don’t mess this up,” he said impatiently.“I am not like you, brother. I. DON'T. MESS. UP” She emphasized every word just to inform him she was nothing like him.Stephen couldn't help but ignore her, but then he was sure she could get it. The way she was dressed portrayed her hourglass figure. No man would say no to her charm

  • Hidden Fortune’s Heir   Expensive things

    Linda walked into the elevator with the receptionist. The top floor button was smashed and they were on the move. The elevator was quite transparent, so Linda could see beyond.Her eyes were stuck on Harrison, but this time the hate in her eyes was replaced with the thought of how she was going to get him fired soon after she got the contract.Just then, she took out some powder from her bag and retouched her makeup. Her little encounter with him had made her sweat to the point that most of the markup was wearing off.The receptionist who was with her could only sigh. Though she thought if she was in Linda's shoes, she would do the same.However, the door came open, and they walked into a vast office that had so many paintings on the wall. Each cost not less than a million, leaving Linda’s mouth almost dropping to the floor.That was the first time she had been there, but she had taken a liking to the place already. All the expensive things were just her kind of thing. If only she co

    Linda was covered in shame as she quickly stumbled out of the office. She had never been humiliated the way she was today. All her tricks failed to work on this man when it had been working on almost everyone.She was almost in tears. The file in her hand was having no use, so she squeezed it and dropped it in the trash can before walking into the elevator. Damn it! This was her total loss. What would she tell grandmother? What would she tell her mother and brother? After all the pride she had shown to signify she wouldn't lose the job, she ended up failing even before she presented what she wanted.She had spent the whole night learning those moves and conducting a strategy that would earn them a favor from this company, yet all of it was wasted.“The pretty face is now swollen. I wonder what happened in there” Harrison came from nowhere after the elevator came open. It seemed as though he was waiting for her.Linda quickly wiped her face, so she could hide the disappointment, but h

    The end

    “You must have thought you were way too smart to be dealt with. You got me so bad that I thought I was done for. I have never faced an opponent like you and for that, I’ll give you a ten. You are damn good!” Harrison said with a hint of mockery in his tone and Edward became pissed.However, he tried to think about what went wrong to make his plan fail and how it was so hard for him to figure out what was going on. In a thousand years, he would never expect someone as low as Ramon to be able to exceed him in intellectual strategy.“What? Don’t tell me you are spacing out at such times. And why weren’t you able to figure out what was going on? I mean, you have cameras watching, don't you?” Harrison said sarcastically.Edward felt pressured and it felt like the right time for Harrison to make it harder on him. After all, Harrison suffered the same fate earlier.“How did I not figure this out?” Edward finally said, scolding himself.“Because you are so dumb to notice.” Harrison fired at h

    A miscalculated plan

    Being indoors for a long while had made their senses a bit shaken off and when they had to adjust to a sudden brightness, they couldn’t help but blink their eyes multiple times.Everyone was shocked to see someone had walked into a room. An unknown someone they didn’t know but were so desperate to see his face, yet their sight was failing to adjust to the light.However, after the figure spoke, every single effect of the sudden brightness was washed off and replaced with curiosity.Starting from the leg, everyone scanned the figure from the toe, slowly heading to his face. When they arrived at the finish point, they all nearly fell on their backs.“Ramon?” Everyone yelled seemingly as though they had seen a ghost. It had to be a ghost right, or maybe their senses were playing tricks on them? They just couldn’t figure it out as their jaws were wide open, almost dropping to the floor.“Jesus Christ! What the hell is this?” Edward yelled, shaking his head from side to side to see if ever

    Boom!

    Back inside the small cabin in the rural area.Edward and the others were seated on the couch watching the Television. They weren’t watching the news but something else. There were some wireless connected cameras fixed in some certain place while the television displayed each of those scenes that happened in each place Furthermore, there was a remote control in Edward’s hand, and he was able to make each scene that was showing in a mini spot on the screen occupy the whole screen, so everyone could have their view of what was happening.Right there, on the screen, it was showing that Harrison just walked into the hospital ward. Not only could Edward and the others watch what was going on, but they were able to hear the conversation that was going on.Meanwhile, Larry who was seated at the far end of the room was enjoying the show the most since he was the one who delivered the flower directly to her. He played his part so well that she was unable to recognize him. Of course, he was pu

    Strange flowers

    “Linda right?” Caroline asked, and the delivery man nodded at her before handing the flowers to her. She extended her hand and grabbed the vase. It was such a perfect piece as it had an ancient drawing sculptured on it. The material looked like glass, yet it was made of wood. The way it was polished alone was unique and must be a very costly piece.At once glance, Caroline took notice of it but what she was more invested about was how nice the flowers were. She couldn't resist the urge to dip her nose into it and allow the fragrance to waft into her nostrils.Bang!Just then the door was pushed open and Lucas pushed his head in. The moment he saw her with flowers he was shocked as he knew it wasn't there before and it wasn't like he saw anyone bring it in.That was when Caroline pulled out of the enjoyable feeling she was in. Her mind ran back to the lad who brought the flowers, and she wanted to thank him but after looking she noticed he was nowhere to be found. Rather, there was Lu

    An apology

    “Hello sis, how are you doing?” Linda's voice rang through the phone as soon as the call was picked up, and the receiver was left in shock. It took a while and there was no response. Nervously, Linda peeked glances at the phone to see if it was disconnected, but it wasn't.“Caroline? Are you there?” She called out again before a reply came through.“What do you want?” Caroline replied seemingly disgusted. “Are you calling to make more trouble? Remember I don't have that time at the moment, please.” She concluded and wanted to end the call when Linda spoke.“I am sorry.” She said and shockingly, Caroline couldn't bring herself to hang up. The words she just heard were too good to be true, yet it didn't feel like she was dreaming.Linda just apologized? Caroline started doubting her senses. She was unable to let herself fall for such a trap like before. She had witnessed too much and it was energy draining. Her stepmother pointed a gun at her and would have killed her if not for a mira

    The callers intention

    “Shit! The police department?” Whitman murmured the words out, as he would rather not be noticed by the caller. Moreover, everyone had their guard up thinking the place was surrounded by the police.There wasn’t any siren sound or any movement, so it must be an unnoticeable operation, right? Those were the thoughts that were running inside their heads as quickly Larry and Raymond took a peep at the window but there was no one outside.They felt a sigh of relief, but that didn’t quench their suspicion. They knew not to let their guard down. Never.“Yes, who am I speaking with?” Edward replied trying hard to keep his composure. He suddenly looked calm and collected like he wasn’t the same person who was nervous not long ago.Already he had speculated that whoever it was, it had to be someone who knew him. The number was private and after picking up, the caller said he was from the police department.After realizing all this, Edward wanted to laugh out loud, but he chose to play along fi

    Stand down

    “What’s the meaning of this? Why are you pointing a gun at my head?” Whitman was shocked by the turn of events. He didn’t expect them to come to his house and threaten him.“You are his ally ain’t you? I’ve seen you a couple of times with that brat called Harrison. Who knows, maybe you are here working for him undercover.” Larry spits his suspicion while Raymond nods his head in support.“Stand down!” Edward snapped but was being ignored. “I said bring the gun down!” He said again and yet no one paid a listening ear to him.“It’s the opposite. I am working with Edward here to bring Harrison down.” Whitman explained.“What? Don’t be shitting me. You are the same person who gave out our hideout to Harrison, and you want us to believe you? You should talk fast before I put four bullets into your thick skull!” Larry threatened.The look on his face was so cold, signifying his threats wasn’t a bluff. Already, he had adjusted the gun and had his finger wrapped around the trigger button. Any

    Loyal to the young master

    The tension became hot and it felt like air was sucked out of their lungs leaving them dry and vulnerable. That should be the time when they should bow their heads and beg for forgiveness, but the men didn’t look like they would.Though they were shocked by his words, there was no trace of fear radiating off them. It felt like they had gradually made up their minds to accept death.Noticing this, Whitman was quite stunned. He knew their loyalty was as tough as a rock, but in the face of death, anyone was supposed to shiver.Smiling, he pulled out a gun and cracked it, then pointed it at one of them.“Swear loyalty to me and I will spare your life.” He said instead as the thought of using them against Harrison would seem befitting to him.“Tch!” All the men spat at his face at once as though they were all in sync with each other. Their eyes were stern as they held nothing but disgust. If not for the fact that they were being tied, they would have lunged at him by now.“Wrap things up
