The shock and confusion that spread out among everyone was palpable, Joe Cole not only revealed he was the true owner of the phone but also revealed a new technology none of them had ever seen before. It left them all in awe as they continued to wonder who he was.To heighten the tension, Tonia fainted and caused everyone to panic. “Tonia!” They all rushed at her and grabbed her, doing all they could to revive her. “This is all your fault, bastard,” Andrea blazed at Joe Cole, blaming him for Tonia's immediate situation.“He had nothing to do with it,” Mercury defended Joe Cole. “If you had not been so obsessed with us, this would never have happened.” “Both of you will pay for this should anything happen to her.” Andrea continued, blasting at them as he checked up on Tonia thoroughly to ensure nothing too critical had befallen her.The others watched in shock, some offered their assistance, Joe Cole looked unfazed due to confirmation from Diji on Tonia's health. “She's fine, boss. Sh
“What?!” Andrea exclaimed, “What the fuck did he just say? Throw us out of your restaurant? Are you scared to prove me wrong that you're a thief and an impersonator?” Andrea queried Joe Cole for his audacious instructions to throw them out of the place he so arrogantly called his restaurant.Joe Cole's audacity left them all in shock, the large majority were more concerned about what would happen now following his order, will Tonia who had already given up on their plan and now seeking forgiveness from Joe Cole play with him or will she side with them? They were less concerned with the audacity he utter but with the anticipated follow up of the order.“Andrea, please leave peacefully. This doesn't have to become a scene,” Mercury pleaded yet again with her one-time boyfriend for him to take the easy route so peace can be restored to the evening.Andrea was chuckled by her pleading, he saw her efforts as childish and intended to push him into cowardice that will eventually make everyon
Tonia pitifully walked towards him, fell on her knees and began to beg again, asking for his forgiveness. Joe Cole insisted she was fired and didn't want her running any branch of the company he had just purchased barely a few hours ago. Tonia continued to beg, shedding tears as she lamented her woes. “I was misled by them, sir. I would never have treated you that way. My entire career will be ruined and I'll go broke for life. Please, boss, have mercy, please.” “Yet you would treat someone else like that, such a behaviour is what I will not tolerate at any of my establishments. Get out of my sight.” Joe Cole fired at her, sternly declaring her termination from the job.Mercury leaned forward towards Joe Cole, held his hand and begged on behalf of the lady. “Come on, Joe Cole. Show mercy to her. She was misled and knows she has learnt her lessons.”Mercury's sympathetic and lovely eyes touched Joe Cole as he gazed into them. He nodded his head to her request and turned his attention
At a club, Andrea and Alex met with Jake and his group. The first two were furious till the younger lads came to them. They sat at the VIP lounge, gulping drinks as they contemplated the embarrassment they got from Joe Cole and Tonia. “Hey, guys.” Jake patted Andrea's back from behind him. He just arrived with his team. Jake, Marquis, Robert, Emily, and Cilla. “Hey, guys. Join us.” Alex greeted them and invited them to sit with them at their VIP lounge.The group sat, wondering why Andrea and Alex had called them over but they knew it had to do with Joe Cole, their mortally-sworn enemy. They first brought the superstars into the game and now the superstars sought to meet with them.They called the waitress and filled the place with more drinks, as expensive and desired as they could get. Andrea and Alex composed themselves so as not to show weakness before their younger versions. This was the group they hoped to mentor in matters like this but Joe Cole was already beating them all.
Joe Cole and Mercury arrived at his student mansion the next day to see John, they found him resting in his bed, his face still bearing the marks of the altercation with Alex. Concerns etched their faces as they approached him, eager to sympathise with him. Since his return back home, he has been healing fast enough but needed more rest. “Hey, bro,” Joe Cole greeted him, his voice laced with determination. “How are you feeling?”John shone a bright smile, his eyes reflecting a mix of excitement for his recovery and frustration for his father's push for justice. “I've been better,” he admitted, his voice strained. “But my dad is not.”They laughed at his joke, Mercury placed a gentle hand on his shoulder, her expression filled with sympathy for him. “We're here for you, John. Whatever you need, just let us know.”Joe Cole nodded in agreement, his mind already churning with plans for retribution. “Listen, John, I know your dad is worried sick about finding justice for you. But trust me
Michael wasted no time in getting to the point, his voice steady and resolute. “Joe Cole, I'll cut to the chase. The Sullivans have rallied the investors and executive board for a hostile takeover of my company. They're determined to oust me from my position and seize control of Wonderstone Enterprise.”President Carter's brow furrowed, his eyes flashing with a steely resolve. “That's unacceptable,” he declared, his voice firm and unwavering. “We can't let that happen nor let them get away with this.”Joe Cole and Philip Seymour nodded in agreement, Joe Cole's mind already churning with plans and strategies. “Agreed,” he affirmed with his voice calm but resolved. “But we need to act fast if we're going to stop them.” Michael leaned forward, his eyes pleading for help. “What can we do, Joe Cole? I'm running out of options here.” “If they now have a combined controlling stake enough to oust you out, your only option now is to buy back the company.” Philip churned in.Joe Cole leaned b

He and his team got together immediately they got the impromptu call from Rachael to set up the meeting, they began planning on how the meeting should go. “We must project our strength as we usually do, sir.” One member announced to him, hinting at their need to maintain one of their most effective strategies in business deals.Megalon was quite known for their projection of a strong and domineering front as a means to frighten their opponents and make them submit to their deal terms.
