Chapter 102“Promotions are done with time, Williams. You can't just wake up one morning and become a head of any department. Besides, we have Sam as the head of the technical department.” Eric said.“You're right. But, if we keep considering this we may lose everything we all worked for over the years. So as the Director of the board, I want to make Williams the Head of the technical department.” Mr. Sterling took the bull by the horn.There was silence in the room. Nobody spoke for almost a minute and then Eric broke the silence.“It's a good idea but how about Sam?”“What about him?” Mr. Sterling asked rudely.“I think Sam is not fit to be the Head of the Technical department because if he was, he should have been here, instead of me.” Williams said.“So is everyone agreeing to this?” Mr. Sterling said and looked around the room.The board members looked at each other, and then began nodding one after the other.None of them dared to object Mr. Sterling's proposal and they thought
Chapter 103Lana had finally convinced Williams to go on a double date with her, Ellen, and James.According to what she told Williams, James wanted to make things right after messing up their last dinner date.That evening, She was a bit nervous but excited.Not just about the date but also because Williams told her that he has been promoted.She and Ellen wore their best dresses, while James and Williams chose smart casual outfits.James picked a nice Italian restaurant downtown, known for its cozy atmosphere and great food.When they met outside the restaurant, Lana and Ellen greeted each other with warm smiles while James and Williams shook hands and tried to leave any awkwardness behind.“You know, last time, you refused to shake my hands, James. I wonder what happened now.” Williams said and everyone burst out laughing.“I guess I have repented.” James said sarcastically and they all laughed again. But William was faking his.As they sat down at their reserved table, the waiter
Chapter 104"Oh yes, Lana is my boss, as you know I'm her chauffeur and I happened to also become friends with her friend Ellen so I must say I'm a lucky man.”“Oh really?”“Yes”"You said you're a chauffeur, is that the only work you do?"The question hit James like a thunderbolt. But before he could answer. Lana covered up for him."Yes" But the answer only betrayed James further because William knows about him from Elson."Oh really?" Williams said sarcastically. "You must have a twin without your knowledge at EMC, because I saw someone looking like you who works there as a janitor. Williams mocked and laughed.James was at a loss for words. "Oh that. I work part-time. “You do part time? But EMC doesn't accept part-time employees. Your story is not quite adding up here lol.”"I um,...” James said and trailed off."Well, James is not a full time employee because he doesn't have the certificate to become a staff at EMC. He was only employed there because he once helped Mr. Wood, and
Chapter 105In Richard Carl's home on a Saturday morning, he lay sick in bed while his wife Kate rained insults and frustration upon him."Kate, please help me, I need to use the bathroom," Richard pleaded."You always bother me, you stupid man!" Kate snapped back."Please, Kate, don't treat me like this. I'm your husband," Richard said weakly.“Ha! What did you say?”Alisha, their daughter, entered the room and scolded her mother for her harsh words. "Mom, he's still your husband," she reminded her. “Stop treating dad like this because he is sick.”"Husband my foot. Who asked him to invest his money into a scam now see the outcome. I can't take this anymore. I'm leaving this house today." Kate said and began packing her bags to go over to her father, Pa Aaron's home.She saw no future with Richard again and can't continue with the marriage."Mom, please don't go, he's your husband.""I'm broke because of him and now, I'm filing for divorce. I can't stay with him anymore. He's ruined
Chapter 106Williams drove directly to Mr. Sterling's mansion to discuss the next line of action in their plans.When he got there, he was ushered into Mr. Sterling's parlor."Hello, Williams," Mr. Sterling greeted as he descended from the stairs."Hello, Mr. Sterling," Williams replied, extending his hand for a handshake.They shook hands firmly."Now, let's get down to business. What's the plan moving forward?" Mr. Sterling inquired."I have a plan," Williams replied confidently. "Once I have gained access to the control unit and can navigate through every sector of EMC. We'll frame Mrs. Lee as the person who sent the virus to EMC, citing her Chinese heritage as a reason for suspicion. Once she's implicated and evicted, you can assume control of the financial department, while I'll pretend to be removing the virus to make the wire transfer process smoother. It'll take weeks to avoid suspicion. Additionally, I'll bill Eric an astronomical amount for tools and software supposedly need

Chapter 107“Jaxon, look who's here to see you.” Mr Sterling said and knocked on Jaxon's door.There was loud music coming from inside his room.After a few seconds, Jaxon opened the door and saw his father and a young man who looked a bit older than himself standing in the door.“Hello, Jaxon.” Williams said and stretched forth his hands for a handshake.“Hello,” Jaxon said and took his hand sluggishly after barely responding.His father explained how Williams had helped him in the past. “This is Williams, the guy who got you released from ESU custody the last time.”“Oh well. Williams.” He reluctantly greeted Williams as his father introduced them. The room was filled with loud music, and Jaxon seemed uninterested.He looked at Williams from head to toe not believing that a young man like Williams is capable of doing such.“In that case, I'll leave you both to catch on along with each other," Mr Sterling said and walked out.“Nice to see you, Jaxon,” Williams said.“Me too. Nice to
Chapter 108"You see, Jaxon, I like you so much, and that's why I want to tell you about this. Or has your dad already told you about it?"Jaxon shook his head and was curious. "Told me about what?" he asked impatiently.Williams sighed and looked at Jaxon with a mix of disappointment and pity. With a solemn expression, he replied, "Your dad doesn't regard you one bit. Take it from me; he sees you as a prodigal son who does nothing but spend all his money."Jaxon's face turned red with anger. "Screw you! Is that what you came here to tell me?" he yelled.“That's the tip of the iceberg of the things I want to reveal to you here in this room. Only if you would calm down and listen.”“You must be mad! I thought you have something important here to say, or your broke a** needs some cash. And I even believed you're dating Lana.”Williams was not going to have that insult. He shook his head again and asked. "Were you expecting me to tell you that your dad truly loves you?" he scoffed. "If s
