As far as he was concerned, the letter he addressed to the CEO ended up in the trash can.Mr. Carter sighed and threw his head backward. He resolved to bite his lower lip while Ken fixated his gaze on the man, waiting for him to defend himself by explaining how he got hold of the torn letter.Even Adams didn't get to open that letter so Ken knew there was no way the CEO got to read the content of the letter."Fine, I'll tell you how I got hold of the letter."Ken was paying keen attention."Earlier this morning after I just got into the building and was about to go to my office, I saw you charging toward the building. I remained at the door and decided to monitor you." he began.Ken arched a brow. So Mr. Carter saw him while he was walking toward the building a while ago? He couldn't help but wonder.The CEO continued to speak. "I watched you from my chosen spot. You wanted to slide the letter in my pi
His Ascension A manager overnight!
Ken spent the weekend in his apartment. He didn't attend any social function or call up Cassie who had lately complained about his busy schedule. The CEO's near-death incident was an event he couldn't forget in a hurry. He had been trying to wrap his head around it. First, someone tried to murder the CEO on stage, and then the CEO told him he knew about the ploy to poison him. Ken also had the promotion offer to deal with. He'll be glad if he was asked to maintain his job as the assistant cashier. *****Monday morning! Ken opened his eyes before his alarm could signal the dawn of a new day. He took languish steps to the bathroom, took a shower, and slipped into a comfortable pair of blue jeans and a cream tee shirt. He opened the small cupboard where he tucked his groceries but was greeted by the furniture's emptiness. All he could see was toothpaste, cream, a bottle of milk that was halfway gone, and other non-consumable items. He slammed the cupboard and crashed into the edge
His Ascension Fame vs ambition
So the purpose of the emergency meeting was the announcement? Ken wondered with a dropped jaw.The CEO slowly took off his hand around Ken's arm and requested a handshake with a broad smile.Ken stared at the man's stretched-out hand with trembling lips. He couldn't bring himself to shake the man.He was stunned beyond words.Not only was Ken surprised, but he was also confused. Did Mr. Carter just make him a manager? he couldn't help but wonder.Soon, murmurs began to erupt from the crowd."A new department has been created?"A second voice commented. "Isn't this the boy working with Adams?""Does he have any sort of experience? Isn't he too young to be a manager?" "Is it because he saved the CEO?"Ken didn't shake the CEO and the man knew the boy was shocked beyond words. He slowly lowered his hands to his waist and flashed a quick smile."Congratulations manager!" Mr. Carter told Ken.Ken began drifting backward. Manager? The word rang into his ear. Did he just become a manager ov
His Ascension Beginning of a new Ken
The CEO led Ken into his office and offered him the twin couch to sit on. Ken sat and inhaled the sweet jasmine extract whose scent had taken over the room.Mr. Carter must have a taste for sweet fragrances he thought and rested his back against the couch.Mr. Carter strode to the refrigerator which was stationed by the right corner of his room. He pulled out a bottle of cold water. He placed the RAZBERRY water on the glass table before Ken. "I can have a bottle of champagne sent to us if you won't have the water," he said.Ken swung his head from left to right. "It's okay sir."Mr. Carter sat opposite him and crossed his legs. "So, I'll draft a document, spelling out your roles, and send it to you so that you'll know what's expected of you."Ken sighed and turned away, displaying his lack of interest in the quest."I don't need to remind you but this is a job to die for." Mr. Carter hinted.Ken cleared his throat loudly and the CEO knew he wanted to speak so he urged him to carry on

It was a brand new day and he was still adjusting to his new life.It's the first day of school, the Second semester.It's been two days since his job as the assistant cashier ended at RAZBERRY company. He completed his contract at the company and earned his pay cheque.After his appointment by Mr. Cater as the project manager of the nearly completed hospital, Ken was given the keys to his new apartment. It was a well-furnished bungalow, housing a spacious living room, a kitchen, and two bedrooms. It's been a week since he relocated from his rat hole to the house. The other bedrooms were locked and Ken had no plans to open them. He was just making use of the living room and one of the bedrooms.If Mr. Carter wouldn't dispute, he would have requested a single apartment because he felt that the one he was given was too big for him. It was a home made for a family not someone like him.The first time he was dropped in front of the h
His Ascension Take me back
More students kept trouping toward the main gate to catch a glimpse of the person inside the vehicle. News had gone around the school like wildfire that a rich student was on campus and had arrived in a Lamborghini. The students began to murmur. As far as they were concerned, the student in the Lamborghini was taking a long to come out of the vehicle in his bid to pull more attention. Ken had been inside the vehicle for about five minutes."Who the hell those he think he is?""When is he going to come out?""I'm not leaving here till I find out who the person is."The students kept on murmuring.Meanwhile, Ken was struggling with the bottom of his left sleeve which got stuck in his Rolex.

His Ascension Be my Girl friend
Miranda almost fell to the ground but got lucky. She held her ground and didn't land on the hard floor.Ken took off his dark spectacle and began to address her. He pointed the glasses at her, looked her straight in the face, and warned her."I don't ever want to see you around me again. Do you understand?" Miranda gasped and tried to get closer to him but Ken glared at her and she was forced to look down but only for a while. The moment she lifted her head, she began charging toward him."Listen, Ken, we can fix this." she implored with pleading eyes.Ken tightened his jaw and his brows furrowed in anger. Miranda could tell that he was mad at her. She had never seen him that mad so she stopped moving."I miss you." she blurted.Ken raised a brow. "Are you kidding me?" "If you ever come near me, I'm going to have you arrested for harassment" he warned and Miranda was stunned.She stared at him with her eyes widened in surprise. What of the other girls throwing themselves at him? Wa

Even though he didn't hear the words spoken by Ken and the girl, he deduced that Ken tried to talk to a girl who ended up running away.Ray walked up to Ken and stood beside him. He watched in amazement as the boy kept smiling like a fool without taking his eyes off the path that Jane took.Ray cleared his throat loudly but Ken didn't notice his presence. He had to step in front of the boy, creating applause on his face and that was the act that Jared Ken senses to the realization that someone was in front of him.Ken stroked his forehead and turned away with a shy smile. "Hey Ray!" he mumbled.Ray folded his arms across his chest and stared at Ken like an owl. "You like her don't you?"Ken turned around and caught Ray's eyes piercing into his. Of course, he likes Jane and had even asked her to be
