Diana looked the bill in disbelief, temporarily stunned as she remain seated at the table. The price of the meal was so high, far more than what she could afford. Meeky had just scammed her too, her heart fell as the realization hit her.She looked at the waitress again, her eyes pleading. “Please, there must be something we can do. I do not have this kind of money. I didn’t know he would leave me with the bill.” Diana said, her voice trembling as she spoke.The waitress’s expression didn’t change, she was growing impatient. “I am sorry, but someone has to pay for this meal. If you can not pay, I will have to call security.”Diana found herself feeling desperate. She checked through her purse, hoping to finding some substantial amount of money but all she found were a few crumpled bills and loose change. It would never be enough to cover the expensive dinner. With no options, she brought out her phone, hoping to see who she can call for assistance to pay for the meal.Her mind to her
As Justin returned back to the office, he sat back down at the table, facing the CEO. His heart still ached from what he had seen and heard moments ago, but he was determined to stay focused and take control of the situation.“I have a request.” He began, his voice steady but firm. “I want Robert to work directly under me for the duration of my stay here. Given the problem the company is facing, I believe his knowledge and expertise will be helpful in sorting it out.”The CEO, barely looking at him as he was engrossed with Cynthia, shrugged nonchalantly. “Sure, whatever you need. Just ensure to get the Job done and more importantly, very efficiently.” He said condescending, as if what Justin requested for was of no importance to him. To him, Justin was just another mere executive from the Drogonuv Corporation Head quarters, sent here to oversee operation from another country.Justin eyes furrowed, trying his best to resist the urge to react to the CEO’s blatant disregard, he reminde
Justin and his assistant, Mark, and Robert left the office as it was already late in the evening, their steps heavy from the weights of the day’s events. They decided to get a hotel to stay for the night, hoping to find some good rest and plan their next steps in a much more comfortable setting, feeling refreshed. The city was filled with colorful lights as they taxied to a nearby hotel, each of them lost in thoughts from the day’s event.When they got the hotel and checked in, Justin saw that Robert had a downcast expression. He had been through a lot today, and he knew he needed to talk about the issues that were affecting him. When they got settled in their rooms, Justin told Robert to join him for a light conversation in the lounge area.“Let us sit down and have a small talk.” He said, pointing towards a cool and quiet corner. His assistant gave a nod of understanding and gave them space, understanding they needed some privacy.Robert hesitated a bit but eventually followed Jus
The evening was filled with anticipation as the Lilly looked forward to her date with Joseph Breaker, the billionaire client she had recently met to close a deal with for her company. The restaurant picked out for the date was so luxurious and was a class on its own in terms of wealth. It has dim lighting and soft classical music was being played, which created an intimate atmosphere. Lilly was dressed in an elegant dress as she arrived at the restaurant, feeling excited mixed with nervousness as she came in.Joseph was already in the restaurant, seated at a corner table, he had a charismatic smile on and his well tailored suit stood out amid-st the backdrop of the restaurant. He stood up to greet and welcome her, his eyes filled with admiration as he appreciated her. “Lilly, you look amazing.” He said, pulling out a chair for her in a charismatic manner.“Thank you, Joseph.” she replied, rather nervously as she called him by name, feeling grateful. She took her seat, trying to calm h
The evening turned out in a way Lilly had not expected. After the dinner, Joseph suggested they continue the evening at his luxurious hotel suite. The wealth of the suite was unmatched, with its beautiful decor and city views. The atmosphere was alluring and felt intimate, and Lilly found herself drawn the more to Joseph’s sweet charmsAs they entered the suite, Joseph's demeanor changed from that of the suave businessman to a more personal and lovely one. His touch was gentle yet assertive as he held Lilly, and his words were laced with promises of security and an exciting future. Lilly was caught up in the spell, she felt a growing deep connection with Joseph that she had not felt in a long time.From gentle touches and sweet words of an exciting life, it quickly became a passionate exchanges of lips. The suite became a place to explore their lips and in no time, other parts of their bodies. They lost track of time as they continued exploring their bodies, there was no boundary to t
While seated in the temporary office set up for him, Justin tapped his fingers on the desk as he reviewed the information his assistant, Mark, had gathered for him as regards the situation in the company. He was filled with thoughts on how to best formulate plans and strategies to address the leaks and competitions problems that seems to be affecting the company. He had given Mark the task of setting up a meeting with the CEO of their competition company, hoping to have some talks and broker a truce or something.“Sir, I have confirmed that the CEO of the other company is not in the country at the moment. But he is expected back any time from now.” His assistant, Mark, reported.Justin nodded as he was being told the news. “No problem. Just ensure to keep me informed whenever he is in the country. Before then, there is another matter I want to focus on.”Mark was curious when he heard that. “What could that matter be sir?”“It is about Robert. His situation is truly pathetic, to say t
As they left the office, they had to flag down a taxi to take them to the boutique. Robert did not have a car and Justin, obviously could not have come into the country with a car to make his mobility around town easier. At the airport, Mark had suggested that they call convoy to help convey them, if they had, they would also be here to take them around the city during their stay. But Justin declined all that for obvious reasons, he wanted to keep his real identity a secret and not give himself away as the new owner and CEO of the entire Drogonuv Corporation. Another reason he didn’t want luxurious cars was that he wanted to see for himself the extent the CEO of this branch of the corporation would go in berating him since he could not even give him a proper and well-fitting welcome after he landed especially when he knew of his coming before hand.So their only option was to keep using a taxi to get around town, and that was what they did. They got to the high end clothing store at a
Justin placed his hand on Robert’s shoulder with a firm grip and reassured him once again. “No, Robert. We are here to shop and not leaving. You deserve to be treated with respect. We both do. Same goes for Mark.”The assistant, Mark, spoke into the phone, explaining the situation at the boutique to the automobile company. Justin could see people from inside the boutique, glancing curiously at them through the sleek glass windows, probably wondering what the commotion is all about. But he kept his head high, he would not let the guard’s prejudice stop him from entering the boutique today.At this point, the guard had to sneer as he thought they were being not serious and trying to pass off an air of importance. When he saw that Justin's assistant, Mark, was making the call, he was trying not to show his disbelief as he said. “You are clearly wasting your time.” he scoffed. “People like you can not and do not get access to this place. It does not matter who you call.”Justin was calm
