"Should we head home now,boss?"Oscar questioned Laquan in the car after they came out of Racheal's place. Laquan hummed. The driver started the engine and started driving away,gently. "So,boss. Firstly,am I allowed to be inquisitive?" "You've never took permission before so why now?"Laquan scoffed. "Okay,then.What was your plan before we came here?. I remember asking you that question back in your office but you said it depends on that woman. Was making her your date your plan or what did you saw in her that prompted you to make such decision?" Laquan folds his arms. "We have three kind of couples. There is a one sided love. There is mutual love. And, there is business love which can be classified into two; Business love on the part of the woman, business love on the part of the man."Laquan explained. Oscar's eyes lits up. "Says someone who has never dated before?. I thought you used to be this shy guy before,boss. How come you know so much about love?"Oscar inquired.
^Snap Back To Present Time^^ .. Mateo's eyes grows out at Rachael standing beside Laquan. He downed the whole wine in his glass and gurgled it down his burning throat. He took his eyes to her again but she immediately looked away from him. He remembered calling her the other night and telling her to be his date to the party but.. He scoffed. He turned to Laquan who raised his brows at him. "We have your permission to go on with our relationship, don't we?"Quan triggered. Rachael looks up at him. That wasn't the agreement they had! "Why not?. Miss Racheal and I were just flirting with each other. There is no real relationship between us. Feel free to make her yours. I am happy she has found a trustworthy man like you."Mateo smiled, insincerely. His stomach was boiling up in rage. Rachel blinked rapidly before bowing her head in dolente. "Okay then. Fix a date for our marriage, Oscar. You are welcome at our wedding,Mr Mateo."Laquan pressed an hot iron on Mateo's wound.
Laquan chuckled before wiping his lips with his thumb. "You've changed, Britney."he murmured. "Miss Britney."she corrected with a little huff. "You've changed too. I didn't know you've turned to a woman - snatcher."she took the tip of the cup to her lips and drew a sip in. Laquan chortled and insert his hands in his pockets. "So, what are you into now?. You have a boyfriend?"he asks. Britney's eyes flips up at him in surprise. "Seriously?"she suppressed a chuckle. She was giving all her best to make it seem like his appearance wasn't swaying her mind. When she'd saw him,she wanted to run to him and say a big "Hi!" However, they've both decided to forget about the love they had for each other. In reference to his words,those are nothing but something that holds them down on the way to attain poverty - free life. It amuses her now that he is asking if she has a boyfriend,all of a sudden?. "Well, Mr Laquan,I now run an aesthetics company where all sorts of things that makes p
The cops walked to where Mateo was. The guests attention was drawn to that. Laquan heaved out a sigh. "You're under arrest,mr Mateo,for the falsification of taxes reports and for bribery and corruption. You have the right to get a legal practitioner and to remain silent. Anything you say or do will be use against you in the court of law."an handcuff was placed on his hands. Mateo looked over at Laquan with tomato eyes. "Wha.what is happening here?"Racheal stuttered, confused as ever. Mateo was taken out with Rachael scurrying behind them, whilst asking questions the cops weren't giving a reply to. She came back into the room and searched for Laquan. When she saw him,she shot him daggers before going to meet him. "You said everything was going to be fine as long as I pretend to be your girlfriend. Are you going against your words now, Mr Laquan?"she uttered, grumpily. "It seems a week in the cell would help reset your boyfriend's brain. I am not pushing him into prison but
"I'm afraid I don't get you,miss."Laquan batted his lashes. "Hm,I like men like you that plays hard to get. Besides,you were the one that expressed your love to me first. I will give you a chance."she beams. "What is she saying, Oscar?"Laquan glanced back at him. "Boss,I.. ... ^^ Flashback. .. Oscar staggered to where Georgina was and squirmed his lips, queasily. "Hii"he waved his hand, stagnantly. Georgina looked at him and her face contorted into a deep frown. "How may I help you?" Her words sent shivers down his spine. "I..am Oscar. And.." "Excuse me?"she declined her head to the side with a frown. Oscar glanced at Laquan ahead and breathed out. "See that man?"he pointed to his back. Georgina traced his finger and when it lands on Laquan,her brows quirks up at his awesome back. "He sent me here. He said he really admires you and would like it if you would agree to go on a date with him."Oscar's stomach burned as he lied. Georgina strained her eyes at Quan's back
"I see.."Laquan drawls out, lowly. "Don't be so sad, Quan. Your parents might be shielding you from.." "Don't try to make me see what they did as good,mother."he interrupted, gently. "They came here and rejected me. I eventually found them, but that man was so expressionless too." "Like I just said, Laquan,there might be something beyond what we can see. Why did you think they came here only to reject you back then?. Did they really have to go that far?"she rubbed his shoulder gently. "I don't want to see the reason. Let's not talk about this anymore but you instead. Have you ever thought of getting an assistant?. The workload might be the one weighing you down. I don't like seeing you this way."his eyes were clouded with worries. "It's fine."she went to sit down. "I would be fine,with time." Laquan nodded,hesitantly. "What about that girl?"she suddenly ask and he stared at her. "Who?"he asked,befuddled. "That girl,the one you told me about."she beams. Laquan fl
"How is it going with the sales?"Laquan asked as he walked towards his office with Oscar behind him. "So far, it's been good. However,the board of directors are giving their opinions on mass supply." "Tell me more about that."Quan breathed out and trotted inside his office. "We actually have several fashion companies here. There are some who produces their outfits themselves then sell to the customers. What the boards of directors are proposing is a chain trade which is supplier - finished products seller - final customers. That would lead to a reasonable increase in our sales."Oscar explained. "Hm,that sounds great. Have you found someone worthy of the manager's position?" "Not yet. I still have my keen eyes on the employees. And,oh,boss,i heard a man has been coming here repeatedly claiming to be your friend. Our securities has been driving him away but his visits has become so constant now."he apprised. Laquan looks up at him. "What did he said his name was?"he
"My boss can buy this place,so watch what you blurt out,miss."Oscar frowned. The last line in her words got Laquan. ..She would like him?. That means she is still on with her brute behavior?. Who is the scapegoat this time around?. The workers will definitely know something so why are they not saying anything?. Is that how deteriorated the theory of justice has become?. He remembered Naveena telling him how she helped Kain's sister up on her feet and how she is sponsoring her education. She might have stopped that since Kain who she always forced s$x on for him to show gratitude to her is dead. "Kain..his sister,how is she?"Laquan asked the lady. "Oh,she always come here to bang on the door. She even made a tent infront of the building where she harbors packs of newspapers asking people to help her seek justice."she snorts. "And why is the justice not here yet?"Laquan narrowed his gaze at her. "Because Naveena has a boyfriend called Justin and he is the one running the in
