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
Arriving back at the villa, Linda left her car by the gate before running into the house. She was still in tears as she ran, hoping to slip into her pillow to cry out her lungs.However, Stephen caught sight of her, he felt like his heart was going to jump out of his chest. Although he was taking a tour around the garden when she walked in, he had no choice but to run towards her to ask what happened. From her expression, he knew it would be bad news.He badly wanted to hear what he was thinking was wrong. Likewise, he would prefer she was molested for wearing such a dress rather than losing the contract.“Linda, what happened?” He asked worriedly and she stopped. Her red eyes looked at him before she cried harder again.“What is it? What happened?” Stephen asked again, and their mom overheard his yelling, so she came running too.Rachel was in a state of panic when she saw her daughter in that state. She looked unsightly dressed.“What happened Linda? Tell me who did this to you?” R
Deep in the city, Harrison alighted a cab just beside the mall he bought. Just as promised, Ramon had done so well with the place. The crappy mall was renovated into a high-class one but then Daniel, who was still a shareholder, was still there. After all, he sold just eighty percent to Harrison after foreseeing the mall was going to soar higher.Anyone who concerns themselves with sterling cooperation always glides higher. If not for Harrison's intervention, he would be on the verge of going bankrupt. Although, despite that his pride was still on, deep down he knew he had to be grateful to Harrison.Harrison got into the mall and was spotted just by the entrance. Daniel, who was running a list in the place, quickly rushed towards him and bowed.“Young master, you are here? The document is signed already, and I have been giving out a weekly percentage to your bank account” he informed, feeling tense to see Harrison there. He had been cheating so he feared that must be the reason Har
“Who do you think you are? Do you think I will spare you? I suggest you go down on your knees and lick my shoe, then maybe I will refrain from breaking your bones.” Damien was pissed. He knew the whole of his net worth wouldn’t be enough to buy such a dress but here was this man getting high on himself.“Honey, don’t waste your time on him. Let’s just call the manager” Theresa insisted.“I would listen to your wife if I were you,” Harrison smirked. “Who the fuck do you think you are? I will…” Damien cried out and lunged at Harrison with a punch towards the latter's nose, but then Harrison easily evaded it by redirecting his punch elsewhere, and he went stumbling towards the floor.Theresa's mouth flew open after what happened. She couldn’t believe Harrison was able to pull that off even when he was locked in a terrible situation.“Honey, just call the manager. This clod should be jailed for this” Damien stood up quickly after sliding on the floor. His clothes were now stained and his
“What are you saying, mother-in-law? Why are the police here and why am I being arrested?” Harrison asked, confused. These men were looking at him like a criminal who had killed someone when he had done nothing.“You fool, you harassed my daughter. Do you think I am going to spare you?” Rachel yelled furiously. If not for the fact that the police were around already, she could have jumped on him and clawed on his face.“Young man, you are arrested, anything you say or do will be used against you,” a policeman said, giving out a look of disgust as he stared at Harrison. He wondered why someone like him would even try such. Doesn’t he have some cleaning to do rather than harassing his sister-in-law? Such a shameful act.“This must be wrong, sir. You guys are making a mistake. I didn’t do anything. I didn’t break the law, so why are you arresting me?” Harrison asked again.“Shut up. Hands above your head” another said and Harrison had no choice but to do what he was told since they weren
“Why haven’t I heard anything from young master?” Ramon was disturbed as he kept pacing around in circles inside the office. He was so worried that eating was never an option for him. He knew by now that he was supposed to receive a call from Harrison for a thing or two.Besides, Harrison told him that his wife was coming to propose a partnership with them, but that day was two days ago. Harrison’s wife never came, nor did he call to tell Ramon the reason.“What is wrong, sir? You don’t seem like yourself” Whitney, the acting manager asked worriedly.“It’s the young master. I fear something must have happened to him” Ramon explained.“What happened to him? Who dares mess with the heir of sterling cooperation? I don’t think anyone alive is capable of trying such a thing, " Whitney said.“I know. But we also have enemies. There are people out there that would want to bring us down” Ramon replied. One of their enemies was Raymond and his son Larry. Maybe it was them who attacked the youn
Harrison stared coldly at everyone, almost as though he could set them up on fire with his eyes“What took you so long?” He said with a deep voice.“Forgive me, young master, I didn’t know you were here or else I would have come sooner. Please punish me the way you see fit” Ramon said with their head still on the floor.Harrison knew it wasn't his fault so he decided to let it off.“Get up Ramon, let’s go,” Harrison said. There was no point in staying here as all it could do was make him angrier than he was.“Okay” Ramon stood up with the others, and they quickly paved the way for Harrison to walk in between them.Harrison walked in between the men, but he stopped just beside the inspector who now looked like he would piss his pants. Harrison's gaze alone had stripped him of his confidence, all he could do now was grovel on his feet, or else death would be his end. He remembered how he had slapped Harrison multiple times when he tried to explain what had happened and now he was going
