'Finally, Chorro is here to take me!' Gianna thought and she immediately ran and headed for her ward where her so-called visitor was waiting for her.However, on getting there, to Gianna's uttermost surprise, there was no Chorro waiting for her. Instead, a man sat on the couch situated opposite her bed, the same spot Liam had sat on.With a confused frown, she walked towards her bed to see who it was while pondering on why the person was there or who he was."Good day, Ms Gianna," the man stood up and greeted the moment he saw Gianna step into the room."Who are you? Did Chorro send you here for me?" She asked as she still had some expectations and hope. At least, if Chorro wouldn't show up himself, he would send someone, right? That was more logical to think about."Who I am is not really important, but just know I was sent by Liam," The man said and paused as if waiting for his words to sink right into Gianna's head.But rather, Gianna felt her head spin at the mention of Liam's nam
Seated at the edge of her bed with her phone clutched tightly in her hands while they rested on her thighs, Cara sat, patiently waiting for a response from Liam after she sent him the message Matt wrote and made her send it."No response yet?" Matt who stood by the widely opened window that allowed the noon sun to reflect into the bedroom with a cup of tea in his hand asked and he took a slow sip from the cup while waiting to hear Cara's response."Not yet," Cara responded with her voice low but low enough for Matt to hear and in response, Matt nodded his head.More than anything, Cara was uncomfortable with what she was made to do by Matt. She never wanted to do any of this or to have anything to ever do with Liam but Matt had forced her with words and actions and she could not say no to him.She would never have thought she would find herself in a situation where she would be begging the same man she had thrown away. Her ego and pride were hurt by this but Matt didn't care at all, h
He ran as fast as he could in order to reach his house a lot more quickly and while he was running, he felt he had outrun the people following him because he no longer felt like he was being followed and this was a relief for Matt.However, just when he reduced his running pace, out of the blue, a man jumped out of nowhere and landed right before Matt, stopping him from taking any more steps forward."Going somewhere? You seem to be in a hurry," The man asked and Matt was quick to recognize him as one of the debtors and instead of answering his question, Matt slowly reached out for the kitchen knife kept securely in his waistband, ready to attack the man standing before him.As his face darkened with anger, he was prepared to strike and attack. With his hand fully gripping the handle of the kitchen knife, he stood in a defensive stance, ready for an attack and also ready to be attacked.The loaner man who had jumped out of nowhere and stopped Matt from running any further noticed the w
It was now six PM, almost time for the welcome party hosted by Chorro for Liam. This was no ordinary party, it was a party where he would not only be introduced to other business people and their world but also get to see how they do things.It was a party where he would have to prove himself in order not to be seen as a joke or as weak. And also get a face-to-face encounter with Chorro.With a towel wrapped around his waist, Liam stood before his full-length mirror and couldn't stop tugging on his hair as his thoughts ran a thousand miles per second.He could only anticipate and imagine what tonight would be like. And as much as he was confident in himself and his ability, he just couldn't afford to fail whatsoever. That would be a great mistake on his side that would affect him and his name amongst the business elites for a long while.RING! RING!The sound of his phone ringing reached his ears and he walked towards the bedside table where he kept his phone and picked it up to see wh
Chorro's suite was no ordinary one, considering he was a rich, powerful, and influential man, the whole place screamed of wealth.It was already buzzing and filled with guests which were mostly businessmen and women who were powerful and influential just like Chorro himself.The suite is elegantly decorated with dim lighting and plush furniture. Soft jazz music fills the air, providing a sophisticated ambiance. Businessmen and women mingle, sipping on champagne and exchanging pleasantries. The atmosphere is convivial, with laughter and the clinking of glasses echoing throughout the room. Hors d'oeuvres are served on silver platters, offering a taste of gourmet delights. Overall, it's a refined and intimate gathering, perfect for networking and forging connections.As the place began to fill up even before the time of the actual party, those present soon began to exchange greetings and pleasantries with each other.As they made themselves comfortable on the chairs available for them, th
While the booing and mockery laughter was going on inside the place, Liam and the others who were outside were listening to everything being said inside the place.And although surprised by the people's behaviour, Liam was as well amused by them. For people who claimed to be business elites, they weren't quite bright."Is this how they behave?" Liam asked Alexander who was seated quietly next to him."You just need to know how to handle them and get used to their attitude," Alexander responded with a nod while he gently shifted his red bow tie. He was dressed in a simple black tuxedo, nothing really extra and his gray hair was styled neatly to the back.As they all sat inside the car, still listening to the conversation happening about them inside the suite, they soon heard when a man spoke about how Alexander was using Liam, and Liam who heard this scoffed out loudly in the car, gaining a stare from Alexander."I mean, it's technically true," Alexander said with a shrug and this gaine
A few minutes after Liam was settled on his seat, Alexander and Nelson soon stepped into the place, and even though the people made a few comments at Alexander, he chose to ignore them and they both took their seats beside Liam.The table were Liam was seated was a big one, next to him on his right was Alexander, and next to Alexander was Nelson.Right opposite Liam was Chorro who sat relaxed on his chair and beside Liam on his left were two other businessmen whom he barely knew."Everyone is happy to see you here," Chorro said to Liam who said nothing in response, he simply just stared at Chorro briefly before looking around him, examining the place.Apart from the fact that Liam noticed that people's gazes were on him, observing him which he didn't mind, he also noticed how the place was a not so fancy but fancy one. It was small and had a very minimal style to it but the little things used for decors would very much be super expensive.He also observed that there were security guar
With a grim expression on his darkened face, Chorro matched out of the hall where everyone was currently being entertained and walked towards where the ring fight would happen in a few minutes from now.Walking through a door that he shut right behind him, making the music from the hall less loud, he now stood in a hall that was dimly lit and walked towards the only door available in the hall.With his shoe clicking loudly causing a soft echoing sound in the barely lit room, he came to stand before the only door available in the hallway as he grabbed onto the doorknob, he twisted and pushed the door open to be welcomed with the sight of a dark room.And as he stepped in, he reached for the switch and turned the lights on, brightening up the room in no time and the sight before him had him smile in glee. With both his hands clasped together behind him, he walked around the place and as he did so, a soft chuckle escaped his lungs knowing what would be carried out here.This was the room
