Chapter 7:
Meanwhile, Michael's younger sister, Emily, decided to pay him a surprise visit at his workplace. She walked into the office, looking around for her brother. Finally, she spotted a familiar face behind the reception desk.
"Excuse me," Emily approached the receptionist. "Is Michael here? I'd like to see him."
The receptionist, Megan, hesitated for a moment before forcing a sympathetic smile. "I'm sorry, but I have some unfortunate news. Michael is no longer with the company. He was actually let go a few hours ago for theft."
Emily's heart sunk, shock and concern evident on her face. "What? I had no idea. Are you sure? Is there any way I can reach him?"
Megan nodded compassionately. "I'm afraid so , he stole confidential documents and the gold bond of the son of the CEO of the company. I'm really sorry to be the one to tell you. I'm not sure about his exact whereabouts, but you could try reaching him on his cell phone."
Feeling a mix of disappointment and worry, Emily thanked the receptionist and quickly left the office. As she walked away, she couldn't help but wonder what had happened and how her brother was coping.
Emily pulled out her phone, her fingers trembling slightly, and swiftly dialed her brother's number. With each ring, her anxiety skyrocketed. Finally, after what felt like an eternity, a familiar voice answered.
"Hey, Em," Michael's voice greeted her, though it sounded subdued. "What's up?"
Emily took a deep breath, her voice shaky as she replied, "Michael, I just found out what happened at work. Why didn't you tell me? Are you okay?"
There was a brief pause on the other end of the line before Michael let out a heavy sigh. Emily could almost imagine him running a hand through his hair in frustration. "I didn't want to worry you, Em. I thought I could handle it on my own. But yeah, losing the job... it's been tough."
Emily's heart ached for her brother. "Michael, you know we're always here for you, right? Whatever you're going through, we're in this together."
" Em, don't worry, I'll figure things out. Don't worry!" He reassured her confident .
"No, Michael," Emily said firmly. "We're going to figure things out together. We'll find a way through this, I promise."
Emily's eyes welled up with tears as she imagined the struggles her brother, Michael, must be facing. They had always been close, and knowing that he was going through a difficult time weighed heavily on her heart.
Suddenly, the phone connection started to falter. Static filled the air, making it difficult for them to hear each other's words clearly. Emily instinctively brought the phone closer to her ear, hoping to catch every sound, every syllable.
Frustration crept into Michael's voice as he tried to make himself heard. "Em, can you hear me? Where are you right now?" he asked, his voice strained.
"I'm in front of the company," Emily replied, her voice barely audible amidst the crackling of the network. "But the call is starting to get disturbed. We can't hear each other properly."
Realizing the urgency of the situation, Michael's voice became more urgent. "Please wait for me, Em. I'll come to you as quickly as I can. Just hold on."
Before Emily could respond, the call was abruptly interrupted, leaving her with only a dial tone. Panic surged through Michael as he frantically called out, "Hello? Hello?" But there was no response, only silence.
With a surge of determination, Michael rushed to his workplace.
Deep down, Emily wanted to help Michael, her brother, to get his job back. So, she gathered her courage and decided to go back to the company. Once outside, she walked determinedly through the entrance, passing by the receptionist who looked up and asked, "Can I help you with anything?"
Emily didn't answer. Instead, she quickened her pace, her mind set on finding the boss's son to plead Michael's case. The receptionist called after her, "Sorry, miss, I can't let you go any further without knowing your purpose."
Ignoring the warning, Emily continued running through the corridors, desperately searching for the office where the boss's son worked. Suddenly, she felt a strong hand gripping her arm, causing her to stumble and fall into the path of two sturdy and plump men.
Startled and fearful, Emily quickly scrambled back, afraid of what these men might do. They approached her with mischievous and perverse looks on their faces, their voices full of ill intent.
"Well, well, what do we have here?" one of them sneered. The other smirked and added, "Seems like a lost little girl. What are you looking for?"
Emily took a deep breath, trying to gather her courage. "I'm here to speak with the boss's son. It's about my brother's job..."
The two men exchanged a sly glance, their expressions growing even more wicked. "Oh, really? And why should we believe you?" the second man challenged.
With determination in her voice, Emily replied, "Because it's the truth. My brother got unfairly dismissed, and I'm here to make things right."
The two men glanced at each other, intrigue evident in their arched eyebrows. With a slight smile, one of them replied, "do you have an appointment?"
Emily took a deep breath, ready to face their skepticism. " N-No, I don't have an appointment, but it's important that I meet with the CEO's son as soon as possible."
The men exchanged another glance, their curiosity piqued by Emily's assertiveness. One of them leaned in, lowering his voice. "You do realize that most of the time, the boss brings women into his office, right? Are you sure you're not here to become his mistress?"
Emily's eyes narrowed, determination turning into indignation. "Absolutely not! This has nothing to do with that. I simply want to see Ryan to convince him to bring my brother, Michael, back into the company."
The men nodded, their facial expressions softening. "Perhaps we should give boss a call and inform him about your situation. It could increase your chances of meeting with him."
Emily released a grateful sigh, her faith in her mission renewed. "That would be greatly appreciated. Thank you."
One of the men swiftly picked up the phone and dialed Ryan's extension. When he picked up he pulled away from Emily a bit.
Emily stood by anxiously, unsure of what was happening. Ryan was in his office when the call came through . He was annoyed, but picked up anyway.
"What the hell do you want from me? I already asked you not to disturb me when I'm in my office, didn't I?" Ryan shouted angrily .
"Boss, it's urgent, it's something you might be interested in!" The guard said trying to calm an angry Ryan.
" Alright! Speak I'm listening, and I hope it's really worth it if not you will be fired." He warned him
The guard explained the whole situation to the boss, detailing how a young woman wanted to meet him because her brother, Michael, had been unfairly fired. The guard held the phone away from his ear as Ryan's voice boomed through the receiver.
"What? Michael's sister wants to meet me?" Ryan asked, a sly grin forming on his face.
"Yes, boss," the guard replied. "She's standing right here, she's quite attractive."
Ryan's eyes lit up mischievously, and he leaned back in his chair. "Is she pretty?" he inquired, a devious tone lacing his words.
The guard shot a longing glance at Emily before licking his lips and responding, "She's just the way you like them, boss. Maybe even better."
" Excellent !" Ryan's laughter echoed through the corridor, a sound that made Emily's skin crawl. His amusement seemed twisted, almost sadistic. He concocted an evil idea, a plan to get back at his worst enemy, Michael. A sinister smile crept across his face.
"Well, well , well, tremendous ! John make sure she is ushered into my office quickly," Ryan instructed, still grinning. He hung up the phone, enjoying the satisfaction of his plan. Rubbing his fingers together, he muttered to himself, "What a nice twist! I can finally avenge myself on this imbecile of Michael and in the most beautiful way."
Chapter 8:After Ryan hung up , John turned back to Emily. "The boss will see you in his office. It seems he was intrigued by your determination." He said with a playful smile . Emily asked nervously," what is he like? Will he help my brother?"" You'll find out soon enough. Just follow me." John said leading her .The men escorted Emily to Ryan's office, their lecherous laughter echoing down the hallway, their hands already reaching out to touch her. But she quickly stepped back, giving them a defiant stare. "Don't even think about it," she warned.The guards chuckled amongst themselves, teasingly calling her a tigress before walking away. She let out a sigh of relief and composed herself before approaching Ryan's office.Taking a moment to steady herself, she raised her hand and knocked on the heavy wooden door.Ryan, who had been expecting her, calmly adjusted himself in his chair, preparing for her entrance. "Come in," he commanded coolly, his voice filled with authority.Turning
Chapter 9:Michael rushed to his former company, Goldrex Corporation. He hailed a taxi, but unfortunately, there was a terrible traffic jam that delayed his arrival. After a long 30-minute journey, he finally reached the gates of "Goldrex Corporation."Anxious and worried, Michael hastily entered the building in search of his sister, Emily. She had mentioned earlier that she would be leaving the company. As he looked around, he couldn't find her anywhere. Frustrated, he took out his phone from his pocket and dialed her number, hoping for some reassurance.But to his dismay, Emily did not answer the call. Michael's fear intensified, and he began to panic. Unsure of what to do next, he walked towards the reception desk where Megan, the receptionist, was stationed. Megan was known to be at least nice and polite to Michael, even during his time of employment.At the reception desk, Michael asked Megan, the receptionist, "Have you seen my sister? She said she was here."Megan looked up fro
Chapter 10:Michael could feel the anger boiling inside him as he watched Ryan step closer to his sister. He needed a plan, and fast. "Ryan, what the hell are you doing? Leave my sister alone!" Michael yelled, his voice sounding shaky as he tried to control his anger.Ryan turned his head towards Michael, his sickly smile becoming even wider. "Oh, the big brother is going to try and stop me now, huh? Not even your courage will be able to save your sister from me," Ryan taunted. Emily was now in full panic as Ryan began to undo her blouse."No! Leave her alone! You sick bastard!" Michael roared, clearly unable to hold back his anger any longer. He took one step closer to Ryan, his fists clenched at his sides.Ryan's expression turned to one of amusement, his hand now resting on Emily's exposed shoulder. "I'll tell you what, Michael, we'll make this a little more interesting. If you can stop me from undressing her before the guards aim you, I'll let you both go free."Michael hesitated
Chapter 11:Shocked by the swift action taken by the CEO, Michael felt a mix of curiosity and anxiety. To his surprise, the CEO broke the silence by gesturing for Michael to follow him. "Come with me, sir," he invited, his voice laced with a sense of urgency.Feeling a knot in his stomach, Michael hesitantly followed the CEO through the bustling office. They left behind the sea of cubicles and entered into a secluded corridor where the CEO led him to a lavish room tucked away from the chaos.The room exuded an air of luxury, with ornate decorations and elegant furnishings that spoke of the CEO's opulence. Michael's confusion deepened as he struggled to connect the dots between the manager's behavior, the CEO's apology, and now, this lavish room.With a soft sigh, the CEO turned towards Michael, still maintaining a serious demeanor. "Please have a seat. I understand that this situation has left you bewildered." He motioned towards a plush leather chair, inviting Michael to settle in.A

Chapter 13:As the laughter continued to fill the store, Michael's determination grew stronger. He knew his card had money on it, and he was not about to let their insults go unanswered. "Excuse me, but I think there might be a mistake," Michael said, his voice steady and determined. "I have more than enough funds on this card to pay for the necklace."The salespeople scoffed. "Oh, really? And where exactly did you get all this money from, sir?" the counter retorted sarcastically.Michael remained calm, knowing that he had the power to prove them wrong. "That's none of your concern," he said firmly. "I assure you, the money is there. Please check again."The counter reluctantly took the card and swiped it once more. To everyone's astonishment, the machine made a different sound this time – a sound that signified a successful transaction.The laughter died down as the counter's face turned white with shock. "I...I don't understand. It went through," he stammered, glancing at the scree
Chapter 14:Michael immediately backed up his sister, and they dodged the car in time, causing it to come to a screeching halt. As the car parked, Michael's heart sank when he recognized the driver. It was Ryan, his worst enemy. Ryan emerged from the vehicle, his gaze filled with disdain as he looked at Michael and Emily. "Well, well, well, who do I see here? The imbecile and his prostitute sister," Ryan sneered.Michael felt a surge of anger boiling up inside him, but Emily grabbed his arm, trying to calm him down. "Easy, Michael. He's not worth it," she whispered urgently.Struggling to control his fury, Michael took a deep breath and demanded, "Repeat that, Ryan. I dare you."Ryan smirked and repeated his insult, relishing in Michael's reaction. Fuelled by rage, Michael lunged towards Ryan, ready to defend his honor. But before he could reach him, Emily hastily intervened, grabbing his arm even tighter. "Michael, don't! It's not worth it," she urged, her voice filled with concern.
Chapter 15:Ryan and Samantha stood frozen in stunned silence as the sleek and luxurious Mercedes S-Class carrying Michael and Emily disappeared from their sight. The sight of him, who had always struggled financially, now basking in unimaginable wealth left them speechless.A whirlwind of thoughts raced through Ryan's mind, each one more incredulous than the last. "How is this possible?" he questioned himself, his voice laced with disbelief. "How can Michael, someone who can barely make ends meet, afford such luxury?"Samantha mirrored his astonishment, her mind grappling for answers. She voiced her bewilderment, her words tinged with a mix of disbelief and curiosity, "It just doesn't make sense. Where did Michael suddenly acquire this wealth?"Ryan's skepticism deepened as he pondered the source of Michael's newfound affluence. "Surely, he can't afford such luxury on his own," he mused aloud. "It must be the old man's money."Samantha nodded in agreement, her thoughts aligning with
