Exiting the lecture hall, Joe Cole and Mercury made their way to their favorite lunch spot, Café de Royale, where they were meeting up with John. Meanwhile, social media was once again abuzz with chatter about Joe Cole, Mercury, and Mr. Hudson.As they drove, the students at Kings & Queens University discussed the latest drama that unfolded between the trio in class. However, what intrigued them even more was Joe Cole's return to school, promising some answers or at least some more dramas which had already begun with Mr Hudson in the features this time.Joe Cole stepped out of his car and patiently waited for Mercury to join him. With deliberate poise, she took her time, adding to her allure as she adjusted her makeup and attire, after the order of her gender. When she was finally done, she stepped out with a magnetic charm that left Joe Cole momentarily spellbound, lost in admiration of her beauty and glamour.Mercury couldn't help but revel in the effect she had on him, pleased that
Mercury's eyes widened in disbelief as she examined the name branded on the elegant box Joe Cole set before her. "A Gustavo? Is this for real? You're giving me a Tony Gustavo jewellery?" Her excitement bubbled over with a barrage of questions.Tony Gustavo jewellery collection was more than just a luxury brand, it was a symbol of class, prestige, and pride coveted by women worldwide. Owning a piece of Tony Gustavo jewellery was like receiving a prestigious award, and Mercury was no exception to its charms.Even before opening the box to reveal its contents, Mercury found herself swept away by the gesture and the gift especially. "My dad is the only person to ever give me a Gustavo, and sometimes, I would sneakily borrow my mom's to wear. She never found it easy to accept then, she would always go on and on about why I mustn't touch her Gustavos and how the others were at my disposal," Mercury continued to divulge information she was never asked about to Joe Cole who just smiled and li
Emily and Jake goes to see Mr Martinez in his office, he had called for them because he had a gift for Emily. The two walked in, still pissed off about the frustrating situation with Joe Cole and Mercury who were stealing their thunder. Never in his life had Jake imagined that an underdog or even anyone in KQU could shut him up like Joe was doing.Their coming to visit Emily's dad could help their situation in some ways to give them leverage, and they hoped for it as they entered.“Hi, Dad.” Emily greeted her father, the School's VC and Chairman of the Board, her frustrations could be seen all over her.“Hey, Mr Martinez.” Jake followed after, also with a frustrated tone.Mr Martinez took his hands off his work to attend to the newly engaged couple, they looked adorable together and were a perfect match for each other but the look on their faces was not giving the excitement that was expected. “Hey, Peanut,” the single father walked out from behind his desk and hugged his beautiful d
Mr Martinez retrieved the box he kept inside his drawer and walked back to where they sat. “You, my dear, you shine brighter than the sun.” He said to Emily as he handed her the fine box. “And you, Jake, you plan the coming KQU Campus King and Queen Event.”“What is this, Dad?” Emily asked with excitement knowing that her father never gets her any gift that is not worth something. She was sure this one would blow her mind.“Yes!” Jake exclaimed his excitement to the task Mr Martinez gave to him. “Woo! I get to plan this year's CKAQE! The perfect opportunity.” He added with excitement all over his being.“Open it, darling.” Mr Martinez responded to Emily. And then to Jake, “It's still going to be the Luxury Car Showcase. And I know what you're thinking already, but might I warn you that Joe Cole is unpredictable.” “Wow!” Emily screamed her excitement as she opened the box. From the making of the box itself to its content, everything was magnificent. Now, she opened the box to be met w
At the heart of the city in Washington DC, in an office that was bathed in the soft glow of morning sunlight, Michael Wonderstone sat behind his desk, reviewing paperwork for his auction event he held over the weekend. The atmosphere was calm, the only sound was the gentle hum of the air conditioning unit.As he went through the books, he smiled so brightly at the figures he saw. Thanks to Joe Cole, Michael's auction event over the weekend was the best auction event he ever had. The auction saw a gross revenue of $1.2 billion, thanks to Joe Cole's $960 million purchases. Compared to the usual $300-500 million that was recorded as the highest auction gross revenue in one night, Michael was on a rollercoaster ride with Joe Cole's unprecedented attendance at his event.“Never in the history of this industry has any auction event generated $1.2 billion in one night. Damn!” Michael exclaimed his excitement, his voice filled the room as he exclaimed even louder.The results were definitely
“Is this about the auction?” Michael asked William Sullivan as they continued the tense moment in the office.William scoffed, curling his lips into a sneer of disdain. “Of course, it's about the auction,” he spat with venom dripping from his tone. “You had the audacity to challenge me and take sides with the lowlife child who knows nothing about our world and how it operates. You dare to embarrass me, Michael.” Michael chuckled and straightened his spine to meet William's glare head-on. “I did what I believed was right,” he declared firmly with conviction knowing that he worked by the books and also stood by a young man who everyone wanted to tear apart for no reason. “I won't compromise the right thing nor break the law for anyone, least of all the Sullivans.”William flashed a dangerous look at Michael with his eyes, he took a menacing step closer to the celebrity auctioneer with his fists clenched at his sides. “I warned you before and I have come to remind you of my promise: you
With his friends gone on their various personal matters, John decided to engage in something fun for himself as well. He drove out of campus to club at one of his favourite spots in the city.At the club, the pulsating beat of music eclipsed the dimly lit clubhouse, the stage was set as usual for a night of revelry and excitement. John sat in the bar area, drinking his favourite Jack Daniels Cocktail and Whiskey mashup, the Jack Daniels Manhattan. He was on his first glass, drinking responsibly.Gazing at the dancefloor amidst the sea of gyrating bodies, his gaze fell upon a vision of beauty, the popular Betty Netty. Betty is also a student of KQU and everyone knew her, she was a big deal but mostly outside school. Also, from a wealthy background like the other students, she was a big star in the social media influencing realm, working with some of the top brands in the country. Her followers on her social media accounts run in their millions. Off-campus, she was more popular than al
The roars from the waitress at the Monumental Restaurant were fast drawing the attention of others who came to enjoy themselves at this exquisite restaurant. For whatever reason made her extremely rude and unapologetic towards Joe Cole, he couldn't tell but he was having it tough with the strange lady.“Excuse me! You can't just ask me to leave when I came here for something.” Joe Cole bashed her with his response, his voice heavy with anger from this rude waitress' disruption of his work and even more, insults on his person.The waitress scoffed at him, walked up closer with a mean and contemptuous attitude. “Boy, I don't care what you are here for, this table is reserved only for those who can afford it and you very much don't seem like one of those.” Joe Cole finally understood why she wanted him to leave for which she communicated so rudely. He laughed gently, “Is that so? Then you don't have a problem with me, I am just not ready to make any orders yet till my meeting partners a
