Due to the fact that Justin and Hawke were on a deal that would soon be closed, he do invite Justin out for drinks at bars where, according to him, they could talk leisurely about business. Justin as usual accepted the invites remaining lowkey at all times.During those meetings, Justin always make sure he takes the back seat giving Hawke the room to showcase himself as he boasts. He was always on about how his influence would help them make the business boom once they are able to close the deal.At one of the outings at a bar, they were seated around a table when another man approached their table. He looked nervous and small in stature compared to him and the taller Hawke. The man started speaking to Hawke in a low voice, almost trembling. “Mr.Hawke, please there should be something we can do about the deal. It is not in any way favourable to me at all.” Justin realized immediately that he was one of those affected by Hawke’s predatory style of business.Hawke looked up to see th
Justin stood up slowly from his chair as Hawke still grapples with the revelation of him being the big shot he had always wanted to meet and be in his good books. He had intentionally given out his number as part of his plan to set a trap for Hawke but he did not expect he would try to use it this way. He was hoping to make that happen with the deal.But now that it was here, he decided to use it quite well. Looking at him with a hard gaze, he spoke.“You have been quite audacious Hawke.” He said quietly with a steady voice. “Your arrogance is very loud and the way you manipulate people and their business for personal gain is just out of this world. You exploit smaller companies, crushing their source of income and thought no one would touch you because you have the backing of some big shot in the city.”Hawke was very nervous as he listened. With a shaky voice, he said, “No…..No, I didn’t…..you do not understand. I……” He was trying to explain incoherently before the sharp gaze from J
Since Justin decided to stay back for awhile to handle the state of things in Torovia before going back to the states, Jolce also decided to stay put and help him out. She took up a position at the company in the HR Department since that is where her strength lies. She was in her office one afternoon, looking at the documents on her desk. She has been trying to secure a major contract with Mayson Enterprises and it is proving to be a challenge. It is a very competitive contract.She was still thinking and staring at the documents when her phone buzzed. It was a message from her assistant. “Meeting with Mayson Representatives in 40 minutes.”She sighed as she saw the message. Her competitions have been pulling dirty tricks in order to get the contract but she believes in honesty and competence when trying to pitch for a contract. Some of her competitors have gone ahead to bribe the officials at the company from her sources.She was determined not to let it get to her. She reviewed h
Some few days later, Jolce was seated in her office as she thought about the contract bidding she had done days ago. She was yet to receive any news from them and she was restless. She would not like to lose the contract. She does not like to lose. She believes she is the best candidate for the project in order for it to be successful.She had spent time preparing her proposal in a way that it highlights how it would help their project if given a chance. She truly believed it is worth their time. But the fact that one of them had spoken up about her competitors at the meeting with focus on their company’s inability to deliver speaks volume about the length people go to discredit others in order to get something for themselves. She wonder why anyone would use the recent scandal news on them to tarnish their ability to deliver top notch projects.But unknown to her, Justin already knew it may not work out as expected even though she deserved the contract. He also understand how importa
Jolce was so elated by the news as she sat in her office excitedly. Everyone in her department was caught up in the joy. Lots of thoughts were going through her mind as she thought about how the contract came to be. She knew she prepared well and had a chance but due to many factors, she did not expect it to come easy like that.When the representative told her she has been approved for the project, it felt like a dream come true. She had done her best to get the project and getting it was a testament to the fact that her efforts paid off. She had thought that their earlier doubts might cloud their reasoning and make them reject her but she got it. It felt too good to be true. It was as if someone must have solicited on her behalf.Well, so far she got it, that is fine. She decided to tell Justin about it, it was still work hours but she could still see him in his office freely because she has certain privileges. He had been supportive throughout the process. When she got to his of
Justin was in his office going through some documents and reports. They were real estate listings and business reports. He had been looking for new opportunities to solidify the base of the company since they started recovering from the scandal. So he was actively searching for ventures that are financially promising and also sustainable in the long run.While going through the listings, he came across one that caught his attention. It was a luxurious hotel that is located in a strategic location but for many years,it has been ravaged by poor management which leads to under-performance. The owners have been struggling with it for some time now and decided to sell it. To many people who had seen it put up for sale, it looked like some risky investment but it felt like a great opportunity to Justin.He reached for his phone and called the number listed for the Hotel’s real estate agent. When the agent picked up and they spoke, he decided to check out the property. When he got to the pr
When the paper works we're ready and Justin was about to finalize the purchase of the hotel, he didn't waste time on putting his plans to work as soon as he acquired the property. The property would be a very important asset to Drogonuv Corporation business in Torovia when fully renovated and developed. And it would have a new management team which would oversee it's business.The first step after the acquisition of the hotel was putting together a team of professionals with wealth of experience in the hospitality industry, who could help rebuild the hotel. He hired a new general manager, Samantha Carter, a well seasoned hotelier. She also has sharp business acumen which had made her Excel in the business for many years. Justin believed she's the right person to head over th activities of the hotel.He also hired a renowned interior decorator, Johnson Greg, whose expertise for blending classic elegance with modern luxury is well known. He would be the brain behind the hotel's interior
When Justin opened the newly revamped luxurious hotel to the public once again, it attracted a lot of people and also unwanted attention from rogue folks. The intention of Justin are mainly positive but he had not thought that his latest acquisition would also attract people of the criminal world.There was a particular syndicate who are quite powerful and are known for their tactics, which are often ruthless and have very extensive reach. The hotel which had been abandoned for years now and was suddenly being renovated and opened for the public with very modern and state of the art facilities caught their interest and made them wonder who was behind it. They intend to find out the person and try to coerce him to work with them as they believed whoever that must bought the building was probably to clean his dirty money.On the day of the launch, they went to the hotel to check it out, disguising as regular visitors but Justin’s sharp eyes was able to decipher them from the regular cu
