Aiden's alarm clock beeped incessantly, dragging him out of a deep sleep.He groaned, rubbing his bleary eyes as he fumbled for his phone to silence the noise.Dragging himself out of bed, he shuffled into the bathroom, splashing water on his face to try and wake up.He ran a hand through his hair, grimacing at the unruly tangle that greeted him. After a quick shower and shave, he dressed in a navy suit and crisp white shirt, fastening his tie with deft fingers. Today was another long day. One that was especially special. Today was the D-Day.Downstairs, the smell of freshly brewed coffee beckoned, and he made his way to the kitchen, grabbing a mug and pouring himself a generous helping of the steaming liquid. He sipped it slowly, savoring the rich, earthy flavor.As he drank, he checked his emails and made a few calls, making sure everything was for his trip home."Boss!!" Hector shouted as he stormed into the kitchen, "I'm sorry boss!! Forgive me, boss!!" He yelled, kowtowing and sl
The day has not been enjoyable for anyone. But somehow, everyone was looking forward to it. Mostly, the high executives in the company, and to be specific families.Harris Revenmar wasn't a fan of families no doubt but that didn't mean he didn't have one, and no matter how much he tried to keep them off his business he had to let them in at a point. Today they've brought gains and they've also brought loss, however, not even they know about the truth about his son.They did know that something happened and his son was away for a long time, they also did know that his wife died and naturally came to the conclusion that his son died. But when the feats of the president of the Revenmar tech company in the U.K started soaring everywhere, a face they do not know and the chairman always support. It could only mean one thing. His son is back.No plan needed to be put in place for people to believe that Aiden was the chairman's son. Everything just fell into place and today the entire company
Aiden's eyes widened, "Isn't that a core part of the company that controls all the money movement.""Yes, it is. That is all the more reason to hand it over to you. I saw what you did with Revenmar Tech. You are indeed a talented person and I am glad I made that decision four years ago." The chairman complimented him.Aiden bowed his head humbly, he didn't know the right words to choose, what exactly to say that will show his gratitude. Over the years, he had made sure to always remind himself of the chairman's gratefulness to him. It was also one of the reasons why he made sure his mafia activities do not clash with that of the company and he kept his face hidden."For now, rest up... go home. Catch up with friends. Go to parties, use up all the free time you have, starting from next week things are going to get very busy for you.""Yes sir," Aiden said with a very good smile on his face.*********"Father, you called me in..." Athena, said as she entered her father's office in a t
With the way Athena's brow lowered in an instant, her father began to wonder if he had made a mistake greater than he could handle."Daughter...""I'll go on the blind date.""Right, he isn't bad. I know right?" He said, but he couldn't wash off the feeling that something is not wrong and he knew better than to ask.Athena was just like her mother, both of them had a temper problem. It was hard to forget the memories of how he had to spend hours trying to cool off her mother's temper. Even though those were not times he wanted to go back to, the memories of those times had kept him even in times when he should be broken after his wife's passing.And his daughter, the lady seated right in front of him. Had all of her characters."Athena... you know you can always talk to me right?""Yes, dad. Of course, I know." She replied with a chuckle. That chuckle scared him even more."I'd leave you to do whatever you want to do to get the date arranged and I will get to my business." She said an
"The return of Christian Aiden Revenmar... everywhere, it is about Christian! Christian!! Christian!!!" The man spoke frustratingly flinging the newspaper in his hands away. He was seated in his luxurious office with a young guy adjacent to him."You! What the hell have you been doing all this while? Someone of your age should be able to act on his own, shouldn't he? How could you not know that the rumors were true.""Father, I remember wanting to investigate this and you told me not to bother myself because it is just a baseless rumor, you said 'There's no way that guy would be alive' and told me to just focus on acquiring the company's shares, as much as I can and impressing the chairman that I can do better.""Ahem, I did say that..." The man cleared his throat and looked away for a moment. "Even though! You could have decided to work on your suspicions, when will you grow up if you always have to take orders from me to do something? And even getting Harris to acknowledge you, how
Athena squeezed her face together as much as she could. It was evident that she was trying her best to hold out the tears in her eyes.Anyone could tell how hard she was trying – that effrontery itself took her from looking like that mean bitch to looking like a very cute and angry kid."Hey, babe... everything will be alright. Instead of crying. Now, we know that he is back and we can ask him all the questions we need to."She sucked in a great deal of air and exhaled slowly. Wiping those lingering tears off her face."Yes. He is back and now I will ask him those questions." Athena stated lowering her brows."Please Athy, don't kill him. His the top most handsome, and richest young heir. If you kill I'm sure all the single women association of the nation and maybe the world will see to it that you serve eternity in jail."Even though she is blatantly warning her, Athena paid no attention and just focused on taking her coffee."Damn, I wish he at least left you with a baby boy... that
As Aaron casually stepped outside, he could see the city bustling and alive with the energy of the holiday season. The streets were adorned with twinkling lights, and the shops' windows displayed festive decorations and merchandise. Crowds of people bustled along the sidewalks, many with shopping bags and packages in hand as they went about their holiday errands.As the end of the year approached, the atmosphere in the city was one of anticipation and excitement.Aaron inhaled deeply."Hmm... I've missed this..." He had defined forgotten how Christmas used to feel at home. But it wasn't like celebrating Christmas in Birmingham wasn't fun either.There's just a special feel that being at home adds to it. Especially when he has been away for so long. The Revenmar company was no exception from this atmosphere, as the highly anticipated end-of-year award ceremony drew near. This year's event was expected to be even grander than usual, as the heir to the conglomerate company had recently
"Oh right, I see..." Aaron nodded as she rant."Crazy right... he should be happy that the guy got to live at the very least. But thanks to the boy coming back alive, that senile man is getting at me with every chance he gets.""Getting at you?""In case you don't know boy. I am very very incompetent.""I see..." Aaron nodded."You see? You think so too?""Not that I think so, you said so... I'm just a little poor boy remember, does it matter what I think?""You seem to know your place quite well..." She noted, patting his head."Aha..." Aaron let out a short laugh and looked at her keenly."You seem to be suffering..." He said as he beheld her sad countenance just after he laughed."Well, I am very incompetent you see..." she paused and looked away before she continued, "...I have only gotten this far with my father and brother's support. My uncle doesn't really like me...""By your uncle... you mean?""Yes, The great Harris Revenmar...""I see... but you have not still talked about
