Marcus did not like how everything was proceeding. A lot of people, it seemed, were now getting too familiar with his face. Some might deem it paranoia, but Marcus felt his reason was still valid. The more people that got to know about him, the more he would be in the public's eye. Of course, the more he was in the public's eye, the easier it would be for Oscorp to find out more about him, and possibly attack him. “Yes,” Marcus replied. “It seems like she does not believe the clothes are mine. She thinks I'm a fraud.” “Ohh. That's weird. Do you know her then?” Dave asked. “Yes actually. She's my wife's sister,” Marcus said to the amazement of the crowd. The crowd that had been following the short discussion that was going on were surprised when they heard what Marcus had just said. It seemed like he was really familiar with this woman. So why was she accusing him if they were that close? Dave for sure already understood what was going on. Even thoug
Marcus got to his office safely. Huncho was given new orders, so he had to ensure Marcus's safety. This time around, he followed him into his building and straight to his office. Immediately he got to his office, he noticed Belle. She was looking expectantly at him. It seemed like she wanted to tell him something really important. Marcus greeted her and told her to follow him into his office. Marcus, Belle and Huncho entered the office together. Marcus went to the window overlooking the factory. He wanted to make sure the renovation of the factory was going well. Ever since the explosion happened, a lot of workers in the factory had not resumed work yet. Some of them had been injured, almost gravely in fact. The explosion was really serious. Marcus had just been lucky that it did not affect his own office. It was either luck, or the people behind it chose to intentionally leave him out of the explosion. Maybe they meant it to be a kind of thre
Marcus told Belle that he had to leave for home. After all, the day he had had was almost unbelievable. Marcus has gone from being angry at his wife this morning, to getting shot at and almost killed. He got saved by a spy in the Banks company. He had to get new clothes because his clothes were destroyed in the shootout. He already had to get new clothes normally. Wearing his work clothes he had been wearing to work for years now as the new manager was really wrong. Got to the store he decided to go, and found out his best friend who he had ‘abandoned’ for years, since he had finished his higher level education was the manager and owner of the store. Trying to explain who he had ghosted his best friend, up to catching themselves up on how they had been too Then the incident that had happened with Cecelia, his wife's sister. Marcus got angry not because she was shouting at him. In fact, he was not bothered at all at Cecelia shouting at him, rather, he got angry a bit when
Immediately Marcus decided he was done talking to Luiz, he stood up and told him he was leaving. Luiz was surprised. His boss never left before the end of the day. Today was different. He wondered what must have happened to him. However, Luiz was considerably different from when he was still in his office. Now, he was calm. He knew what he had to do, and what not to do. Marcus led the way out of his office, Huncho and Luiz also followed him out of the door. “Belle, I'm going home now. We'll see tomorrow morning,” Marcus said. “Enjoy your night boss,” she replied. Marcus started walking out of his building after that. He got out of the building, and it was time for Luiz to go back to his workplace. “Goodnight boss,” he said and bowed slightly to Marcus as he headed back. Marcus watched him go. He had thought about telling Luiz about the new developments for some reasons. Firstly, he did not believe him to be the spy of the Oscorp Corporation.
Marcus was on his way home when he had gotten a call from his sister Juliet. He realized immediately what it must have been about. The information network of the Krafth was really wide. They could gather news really fast, and know Marcus to be related to the Krafth by being the manager of the factory that Juliet had just bought, any information about him was quickly outsourced. So, it would not be surprising if by now, the news about him being in a shootout was already known by Juliet. It was very likely the reason why she called him. The car had been filled with silence as usual today. Marcus and Huncho were left to their own thoughts, when Marcus's phone rang. After realizing what the call must be about. He picked the call and heard his sister's voice. He could tell from how she sounded. She was really worried about him. Marcus told her about the shoot out. Even though she was already briefed about how it happened, he still went ahead to tell her abou
Marcus had stood at the entrance of his room for quite a while. It was almost as if the lighting of the room was playing a cruel joke on him. Almost as if. But he knew deep down it was not. He could hear the sounds being made from both of them. He could see it, and he could also feel it. It felt as if someone had plunged a knife into his heart for a while. Almost as if he was closer to death than he was earlier today. Chantelle and Richard were oblivious of the presence of Marcus as they continued to indulge themselves in their love making. It was until Chantelle’s eyes rolled over to the door that she paused. She quickly tapped Richard. There was silence. Awkward abrupt silence. Marcus could see both of them looking at him quite unsure of what to say. He was also silent. He looked into the eyes of his ‘wife’. She could not meet his eyes, and neither could Richard. After some time, Chantelle realized she had to be the one to break the silence. Afte
“Drive me to The Chandeleer Hotel,” Marcus said. “I'll be staying there from now.” The last part of the sentence was the main part. It was what shocked Hunchi too. His boss had asked him if he had dropped off the clothes they had bought earlier today at the Krafth mansion.he had told him that he had not reached the mansion yet. So, the clothes were still behind the boot of this car. Now, he told him, that he was going to be staying in the hotel from now. “Also,” Marcus said. “Place a call to the manager of the hotel telling him to be expecting us very soon.” “I don't want to be put through any hassle when I get over there,” Marcus said. Judging from how his young master sounded, the fact that he was already tired when he was going to his house, and how he sounded now, it showed that he was extremely stressed right now. However, Huncho was in no position to ask him what exactly had happened. He just kept on driving. Huncho remembered Richard's car th
Belle had driven down to the hotel where she had been staying ever since she became a secretary of Marcus Krafth. Her lodging was arranged by Juliet Krafth. Marcus's younger sister. The Krafth family had played a huge part in her upbringing, so when the chance arose to be the secretary of Marcus, the new upcoming head of the Krafth empire, Belle was so happy. It had been quite fulfilling so far. Marcus was a nice boss, and he never bothered her. He also did not ask for much and their relationship as boss and worker had been progressing smoothly. Belle loved her job. Everything was going fine until the explosion. The explosion had rattled her deep down. But as the secretary of Marcus. She had to maintain a stoic front. She could not tell anyone how scared or angry she was. It showed though, that she was angry. However, she tried her best to hide it. Everything that had happened and everything that her boss had said today however was a lot. She
