Immediately, Joseph Schultz moved closer to Flanagan and kicked him on his calf while raising his hands.The pain from that powerful kick sent shockwaves through Flanagan's body and instantly, he fell on his knees."What was that for Joseph? He shot a cold glance at Joseph.Joseph now on his knees said. "You have to be reasonable sir Flanagan or you would get us killed. We need to do what they ask us to do.""I am a Davidson and it is inappropriate for someone of my class to take orders from anyone." Flanagan protested as he seemed to be resolute with his perception about himself."I am sure that you are smart enough to know what these guns are capable of doing." Joseph then turned to the armed men."I am sorry guys, my brother her has a disorder with his ego." He smiled, feeling arkward as he did so, silently praying to the good Lord that his time on earth would not be concluded today and at this point in time.Just as he had said that, a Volkswagen golf diesel automatic drove into t
Flanagan's eyes fluttered open, only to be met with the disorienting sight of a sterile hospital room. Panic seized him as he realized he was bound to the bed, unable to move. His heart raced as he scanned the room, with his eyes widening in terror at the sight before him.Three figures in surgical overalls loomed over him, their faces were obscured by nose masks, their heads covered in hair nets. Their presence sent a chill down Flanagan's spine, and his mind was racing with fear and uncertainty.But it was the sight of Romeo Stormbreaker, Joseph Schultz, and two high-ranking military officers that sent an extreme wave of terror coursing through him. Flanagan's breath caught in his throat as he realized the gravity of his situation, the realization sinking in like a weight on his chest."Where am I?" Flanagan's voice trembled as he addressed the imposing figures before him, his words barely a whisper amidst the silence of the room."Mr Flanagan, you are in a secure location…""Shu
Romeo's eyes burned with a fierce intensity as he leaned in closer to Flanagan, with his voice dripping with venomous rage. "Did you really think that I would let you off the hook that easily now that you know who I am, Flanagan?" He asked.Flanagan could o nothing but stare apologetically and innocently at Romeo."Your mother was responsible for the death of my daughter and not only that, you schemed with her to destroy the beautiful relationship I had with Linda, but trust me, she will pay dearly for her sins."Flanagan's heart sank as he realized the gravity of his situation. "Please, Romeo, have mercy. I'll do anything, I'll make it right, I swear," he pleaded, desperation lacing his words.But Romeo's expression remained cold and unforgiving. "There is no mercy for traitors like your mother. That venomous snake that took the best thing that ever happened to me which was your sister."With a cruel smile, Romeo outlined his plan for revenge, each word dripping with malice. "I will
"Yes mom. I slept well." Anna replied her mother Maria Hickey as she conversed with her on phone."How about your manicures.""Mom, what do you take me for? I do not joke with my manicures mom.""So about your relationship life, how have you been coping? Can I now him? What am I saying? How is your relationship with that super rich guy who disguised himself as a driver, the one you brought on your birthday?""Mom, I am sorry but that is private." Anna replied but respectfully. She knew how inquisitive her mother could be, and hence she respected Romeo's privacy concerning his source of wealth and true identity.""Okay. So where are you now?""I am headed of to the company, I am going to work.""I am happy to hear that Anna, however don't forget to keep striving on because the sky is your limit, keep working hard and don't quit no matter what, can you do that for me?""Mom I have a tough skin, I can take on any challenge.""Okay, I will be off now, have a nice day.""Goodbye mom."Afte
"You can come in." Anna said, however she was still startled, as she looked up to see Mrs. Thelma Smith, the global relations officer of the company, standing in the doorway with a solemn expression."Mrs. Hickey, may I have a moment of your time?" Thelma's voice was soft, but there was an underlying gravity to her tone that sent a shiver down Anna's spine."Of course, Thelma. Please, come in," Anna replied, gesturing for her to enter.Thelma stepped into the room, her demeanor grave as she took a seat opposite Anna's desk. With a heavy sigh, she began, "I'm afraid I bring more troubling news, Mrs. Hickey. Our company has begun to lose investors."Anna's heart sank even further at the revelation. Losing investors would only exacerbate the already dire financial situation the company was facing."How could this happen, Thelma?" Anna asked, her voice barely above a whisper.Thelma took a deep breath before continuing, "It seems that several prominent investment groups have decided to w
Don Fransisco fixed Anna with a stern gaze, his dark eyes betraying none of the warmth that Anna desperately hoped to see. "Mrs. Hicky, let us be frank," he began, his voice carrying a weight that seemed to fill the room with tension. "Your company's performance has been nothing short of abysmal."Anna felt her stomach churn at his words, each one striking her like a blow to the gut. She had known that things were bad, but to hear it spoken aloud by someone as powerful as Don Fransisco only served to drive home the severity of the situation."We have watched as your company has hemorrhaged profits quarter after quarter," Don Fransisco continued, his tone growing more impassioned with each passing moment. "And despite our best efforts to offer guidance and support, it seems that your leadership has been unable to steer the ship away from disaster."Anna felt her cheeks flush with embarrassment as Don Fransisco laid bare the failures of her company for all to see. She knew that she ha
Anna's mind raced as she grappled with Don Fransisco's proposition. She knew she couldn't sacrifice her integrity, nor could she betray her own values for the sake of her company's survival. But the weight of the situation bore down on her like a leaden cloak, threatening to suffocate her resolve."Don Fransisco, I appreciate your offer," Anna began, with her voice trembling slightly. "But I cannot accept it. My principles and values forbid me from entering into such an arrangement, I respect your person and I hold you in the highest regard. I would happily do anything to please you but I just cannot involve myself in such scandalous act."Don Fransisco's expression darkened, as his eyes began to flash with barely contained anger. "You dare refuse me?" he growled, his voice low and dangerous. "Do you realize what is at stake here? Your company is on the brink of collapse, and without my support, it will surely crumble into dust."Anna felt a surge of fear grip her heart at Don Fransi
"I am Sheikh Zayed Al Hamid, director-general of the Green Coast Group," the voice on the other end of the line introduced himself.Anna's heart skipped a beat at the mention of the Green Coast Group. She had heard of them before but was not aware of the detailed information about them – However the green coast group was a powerful conglomerate known for their investments in agriculture. "It's an honor to speak with you, Sheikh Zayed," Anna replied, as her mind began racing with possibilities.Sheikh Zayed went on to express the Green Coast Group's passion for agriculture and their commitment to supporting companies rooted in the industry."Ms. Anna, for sometime now we have made some necessary research concerning My Fav Cereals and I must say, your dedication to pure agriculture is truly commendable," Sheikh Zayed remarked warmly. "Here at the Green Coast Group, we share the same passion for the agricultural sector and firmly believe in supporting companies like yours that are deepl
