After the police left with Cara and Matt, Liam apologized to the old lady who didn't seem to mind and afterwards, she left with her wheelbarrow containing the fruits she planned to sell even though some of them got damaged.Liam stood in the same spot with his hands tugged inside the pocket of his shorts, his eyes solely on the old lady as she left with her wheelbarrow."What a long day," said Liam with a sigh that passed through his nose. He peeled his eyes from the old lady and looked around only to see that people were still staring at him even though the drama had already ended.He looked away and began heading out of the place, he wanted to return back to Alexander's mansion and today's event would now serve as a lesson never to leave the mansion without a phone or without dressing appropriately because Liam knew his average dressing was one of the many reasons Cara and Matt dared to walk up to him and cause him trouble.He was sure if he was wearing a high-end expensive suit and
Dusk soon fell as quickly as a speeding car and this was the time when Cara's family usually had their dinner, the dining table had food arranged on every corner.Though they were an average family, they could still afford a three square meal in such a grand manner that a person would think they were a very rich family.And that was because Mr Broda, Cara's father and the head of the family runs a successful bar and is being assisted by his son, Nick.At the dinner table, they all sat quietly as they ate their dinner and seated beside Cara was Matt.Matt appeared to be eating quietly and even made faces that would make a person think he was enjoying the food when it was far from it in reality.Deep down, he prayed and wished Cara wouldn't bring up today's event with Liam at the dinner table, it would be better if everything was forgotten and they should just live like nothing like that ever happened."Are you enjoying the food?" Cara turned to him and asked and he simply nodded with a
However, that same night at Alexander's mansion. They all had their dinner quietly and retired to their rooms. But Liam had no plans of sleeping yet, he picked up the laptop the butler had prepared for him and quickly got to work.He did as much research as he could about Sterling Global Ventures and so far, everything looked all good and fine. The only thing that he noticed was off was the constant gossip about how the company would close down if Alexander passed away as there would be no proper successor.Liam guessed this was also why so many daggers were pointed at Alexander because they all wanted his legacy and everything he owned knowing fully well of the fact that there was no one to take over after Alexander.But that was fine, he was here now. All that was needed was for Alexander to announce him to the world and that would happen in a few days.However, that would mean all evil attention would be turned towards him. Was that a good thing?Well, it wasn't like he would now li
Matt continued to whip his mother, her body shook from every single whip and every single contact the whip made with her body.This was how it had been with her for almost a year now. Her life had been so miserable but still, she had never for a day wished for death because she somehow hoped for a chance...Matt continued whipping his mother aggressively without stopping. It was all her fault, she was the reason why he was having so much anger in him."You stupid f*cking sl"t!" Matt cursed out loudly without even stopping, he whipped her so hard that even his hands were now aching but he wouldn't stop.While he had been out there looking for ways to save his father's life, this stupid woman had been busy fucking around with men.And even during his father's funeral, she wasn't present. He had no idea where she was but his hate and anger towards her only increased."You are a stupid hoe!" He spat but when he saw the way she shook her head as if trying to deny his claims, he gave her a
Almost a week had already passed with so much going on but most importantly, Liam Santiago had now become the new CEO of Sterling Global Ventures and of course, this news shook the world except for the people who were yet to hear of it.The day he had resumed his new office, the media was all over the company's entrance, taking photos and throwing questions at Liam."Over here, sir!" The reporters had shouted, "How do you feel about being the new CEO?""Do you have any vision for the company?!"Liam had thought of ignoring them but on a second thought, he stopped before them and the cameras quickly flashed in his direction, taking multiple pictures as they all surrounded him.With the microphone now close to his mouth, Liam said, "I'm very certain that me being the new CEO was a very surprising turn of events for not just the company but the public. However, I would like to inform you all to brace yourselves because there are even more surprises coming for everyone, even myself." And
No! There was no way in heaven or hell this could be true or even possible. Cara refused to believe it. Liam was a loser and a nobody, he wouldn't even be able to bag the position of a delivery boy not to mention a CEO. The news was definitely fake.She would have to see him with her very own eyes before she would even believe it. Just the thought of it was crazy. If Liam became a CEO then pigs would fly, not to mention Sterling Global Ventures? That was even more crazy.Cara then chose to ignore everyone and sat back down on her chair, she ate as fast as she could with her mind still wandering to places as she imagined Liam being a CEO which was impossible.These news publishers really needed to be sued for putting out such vile and impossible news to the public.Though she had now lost her appetite, Cara still forced herself to eat as she would be going to work right after breakfast. She needed food to give her just the right amount of energy to carry on with her day.However, Matt'
A few minutes ago, when Mr Broda had told Matt to go wait for him on the balcony of Cara's room, he had been pacing from one end of the room and back to the balcony because his mind had solely been on what he saw in that newspaper about Liam.How was that even possible? What suddenly happened? Just one week ago, Liam had been below him and even his own wife had chosen him over Liam. He was a nobody and a loser.And now? He had suddenly become someone this powerful. How did he even get himself to such a level? What games did he play? What was his secret? Perhaps the news was fake, what could be the odds?Matt questioned in his head as his pacing legs stopped at a spot, his hands clenched tightly on his side. He looked evidently angry with his bloodshot eyes staring straight ahead, he stared at nothing in particular, lost in his own angry thoughts.Matt began to think deeply about what to do with the situation if he decided to go find out himself and the news turned out to be true.But
When Mr Broda had excused himself to go check something, Liam was left all alone in the living room. His thoughts drifted to how he had surprisingly met the old man home, it came as a surprise to him even though he had hoped to meet the old man home, that must be luck.However, a few minutes had passed since Mr Broda excused himself when he felt the vibration of his mobile phone coming from his pocket. At first, he never felt like picking the call however, he had to remind himself of who he now was and little calls like this might likely be important.With that thought, he stood up from where he sat and walked out of the house to receive the call. Fishing out his phone from his back pocket, he saw it was Alexander's secretary calling, with a frown that showed his unspoken questions, he answered the call."Hello?" Liam said right after picking up the call."Mr Liam, hurry back the chairman just had an accident!" The secretary said in a voice filled with panic and ended the call almost
