“You fool, why are you just standing there? Do you want to die?” Raymond yelled at his men, and they were stuck, not knowing if he meant they should fire first or run.However, Larry had already accepted defeat and was lying on the floor crying, seeming to have accepted death. When Raymond saw this, he became angrier.“What kind of useless son do I have? Are you not supposed to figure a way out rather than cowering in fear? How will you surpass me someday” Raymond was disgusted.“What do we do, boss?” The men rushed towards him, forming a circle.“What do we do? We run, damn it!” He replied, frustrated.Bang! Bang!The door was banged twice as a warning sign. Ramon was standing by the balcony while his men were around, about fifteen of them pointing a gun at the door and awaiting his command to open fire.Though Ramon could have mobilized the police and had them arrest Raymond, he wanted to do exactly what Harrison ordered him to do.With all the resources Sterling Corporation has, f
“Tell me where your boss is?” Ramon said with a deadly tone, enough to send shivers, and rather than tucking their heads in, the men stood with their heads up, unfazed.“It will be funny to think we can give out our boss so easily” one of the men replied, smiling.Bang! Bang!Lucas jumped at him with two punches, making sure he had bled his mouth before he stepped off.“You will answer or else you will lose more teeth” Lucas sneered at him right after the man's teeth fell off.The man looked at him in horror, seemingly as though boiled water was spilled on his skin. A lump had grown on his eye socket, and even his lips were bruised.The other man who was captured with him started shivering, knowing he would be next. All he thought was a verbal confrontation, but Lucas didn’t look like he would let this off with mere talking.His fist was still drenched with blood, while his eyes were piercing daggers at the man.Noticing fear had been instilled in them, Ramon came forward to ask again
Harrison wanted to reply, but her sudden appearance left him speechless. Everyone's eyes were glued to them as they hurriedly reached the inside.“We are sorry, mother. We arrived late” Caroline apologized, but it wasn’t like she would be listened to. Rachel, who wanted to yell again, turned mute after trailing her eyes down the dress Caroline was wearing. How the hell did they get that dress? How dare she wear something that expensive to this place? She stood quietly, mulling over her thoughts.When Harrison and his wife reached where she was, Caroline wanted to bow as a sign of greeting, but Harrison quickly dragged her inside and Rachel snapped out of her thoughts.“Do you know how much that dress is worth?”“How about the necklace? That is a jade necklace she is wearing. How on earth could she afford that?”“Just who are these people? Are you sure they are from the Samson family?”Everyone was talking in the great white hall. The place was lit with flashing lights hanging from on
“Can you say that again? I don’t seem to capture the words you said” Harrison asked, trying to understand what the man meant. He wanted to know if the man hit his head before coming to the party and even dared to say such words to him.“You heard me right, what can a punk like you offer to her? As you can see, I am worth millions since Sterling Corporation partnered with my company. You know what that means?” The man asked while Harrison played along. He nodded in response and the man continued.“That means I can still soar higher. I have the money to put your wife in my bed and make her scream my name while I feed her with loads of cash from behind” the man added while portraying some gestures that disgusted Harrison.Was this man here just demonstrating how he was going to have sex with his wife? Harrison was devastated and at the same time stunned by such audacity. It seems the rich always think they can have whatever they want, even people's wives.“You’ve got lucky we are in a cr
“I don’t know who you are talking to or what you are trying to pull off but I can’t have you playing pranks on me” Xander's eyes turned red. He didn't understand why, but the way Harrison spoke was so serious that made him have second thoughts. Maybe he had tempered with the wrong person?But then, after taking another look at Harrison, he was sure the lad was a nobody. Someone worthless who wouldn’t mean anything to the public even if his death would be announced today.“We will see about that. Now, I will see which money you can use to buy off people's wives into having sex with you!” Harrison grinned.Watching him, Xander couldn’t figure out what this man before him was talking about. How the heck would he go broke when he had like seventy million in his account? That would go a long way than just varnish in a blink of an eye.“Your threats are not working. You hired a fake Ramon and pretended to be having a serious conversation with him, thinking I would fall for it? How can a che
Everyone had their mouths sealed for a while, trying to process the shock before the hall turned into a raging house. Everyone was throwing off their tantrums. If all reporters were present here too, Harrison could have been the headline on the news.“What are you kneeling before this man? Don’t you know he is someone worthless who can’t offer you anything” Stephen was angry that the man whom he looked up to was bowing to the likes of Harrison.Was this a dream? Or was it just a cover-up to fool his eyes?“Please, Harrison. I am truly sorry” Lucas begged with tears streaming down his eyes. His life had crumbled into pieces in just a few minutes because of the rash decision he took. If only he hadn't met Harrison or taken a liking to his wife, then none of this would have happened.He kept tucking Harrison by the suit, begging, but Harrison formed an act. Similar to the others, he pretended to be confused as to why the man was begging him and even went on his knees.“Leave me alone. I
“Are you excited, wife? Grandmother is going to announce it soon enough” Harrison said as he approached Caroline.“I am still nervous though,” Caroline replied, a little tense.“Don't be. Everything will go fine” he assured and stood right next to her facing Grandmother who was now ready to give out the speech.The entire hall had turned silent. Everyone gave her their eyes and listening ears, but their mouths were sealed while their chests filled with curiosity.“Okay, first of all, I want to thank my daughter, Rachel, for having such wonderful kids who have made a change to this great family,” Grandmother started and everyone smiled. “ I would like to give my thanks to Linda who did well and successfully gained us a contract with Sterling Corporation. Her effort was exceptional, and she made sure to show how good the Samson family is” Grandmother added and everyone started clapping.Except for Harrison and Caroline, who had a sour look on their faces. They were both hit with shock a
The hall became filled with loud chattering. Everyone was puzzled about what to believe. In just today, so many things have happened which were making everything so challenging to believe.Though they wouldn’t dare to accuse grandmother of lying, why was it that her son-in-law was accusing her and calling her a liar? What is going on?So many questions were running inside everyone's head in the hall. Caroline, who was the subject of the matter, had now spoken up, saying she was the one who secured the contract but not Linda.Even the reporters who were now videoing Linda, live, were stuck on what to do. Their cameras were moving randomly and almost everyone was being captured instead.“Are you calling my mother, a lair?” Rachel spoke up after a while and once again the hall went quiet. “Do you know that without her kindness you would have been nothing? You could have been a non-one and wouldn’t even get a chance to marry my stepdaughter” she added, taking the crowd's attention.“What t
