His face was void of any welcoming smile, he couldn't believe how trashed he was treated even though it was expected. He regretted the day he made Tristan's life hell, but it was time to move on and wait for his final results."Excuse me, sir?" The clerk disrupted Paul's train of thought, causing him to face her instantly while wondering what she wanted from him."You have to sign before you leave sir." The clerk added with a smile."Just look at her smiling," Paul thought, but he couldn't stop someone from smiling because he didn't get the job he hoped for.He walked up to the desk and signed where she showed him, and before he could leave, she handed him a letter with a smile."I'm looking forward to working with you, congratulations sir."Tristan raised a brow wondering if the clerk had gone insane, or was mocking him to make matters worse. "What do you mean?" He asked, but the clerk did not respond, she only gave him the letter and with a smile she said."Have a nice day sir, and
"What do you mean Mom? I won't get married anytime soon, for Christ's sake Mom I'm twenty-four," Tristan replied to his mother's joke with a laugh."My cousin married at twenty-two, youths these days wait till they are fifty to get married, I mean look at you, you are settled already." His mother argued further."Haha," Harry laughed from the dining table, where he was enjoying dinner."I know right?" Tristan reacted,"I'm still contemplating, so don't expect to see a bride any time soon," He adjusted himself on the chair."Anyways Mom," Tristan diverted the conversation,"I'm going to an orphanage home tomorrow, want to come? " He asked, whilst reducing the volume of the television." Oh, that's good, and I'll be happy to come along, it feels good to help these children. You know sometimes I feel bad that they've got no parents, it's just … not fair." She added." Yeah, I'd be visiting about four of them, but one a day, I'll visit more of them in the future." He added, trying to hide
The environment was unlike Tristan and expected it to be, the hygiene was the worst, and the building needed to be amended and the rooms were too small to contain five kids.He had woken up that morning ready for his new task. Along with his mother, Tristan went to a clothes shop and purchased clothes of different sizes, shoes, and bags, watches and bracelet just to see those kids smile.But the frown on his face when he got there was unbelievable, the situation of the place was the worse and he couldn't believe how poorly this orphanage home was managed, learning that five kids shared a room made made him even angrier. The staff who were here lazed around and only did what they wanted any time they wanted, leaving the kids on their own to be taken care of by the older ones until they were ready to resume their work.The children looked malnourished, and staring at them felt like staring at a bunch of skeletons, with their ribcage visible from their skin, this hurt Tristan so much t
"Shut it down, sir?" Benson exclaimed I'm astonishment."I don't like people like these, he'll learn from today's experience," Tristan said with a sneer, before walking into the cluster of 4-8-year-olds that surrounded his mother."They are so lovely," she said to him with a smile, and Tristan smiled back, he hated that the system asked him not to interfere in his mother's choice of who to adopt, else he would have convinced her to take one of them that she liked. Also, these were kids, the system specified two middle school children, but this orphanage home only houses little kids." Look, I made a bracelet," A little girl tapped him with an innocent smile on her face, she raised the thread that she had tied at both ends and showed it to Tristan.Her naivety was amusing to him, but he only bent down and smiled at her, " It looks great," he said." You can have it," she added and gave it to Tristan who couldn't resist her smile and accepted the bracket. To make her even happier, he
[ The former 128th chapter was deleted because of a Meganovel policy that I had to keep to. I appologize for the inconvenience.]Mr. Quinn froze in his position, the man before his eyes was no ordinary visitor and it did not occur to him, he felt like walking backward slowly until he was out of sight but it was too late because Tristan was already informed about his arrival and was ready to see him."This is my manager, sir," the clerk said to Tristan, and without hesitation, she walked away to avoid being included in whatever was going to happen."Good morning… Mr Quinn was immediately silenced by a deafening slap from Tristan who couldn't hold back his anger.The sound of the slap caused all eyes to turn, the children even Tristan's mother all looked in that direction wondering what was going on.Leaving the children behind, Tristan's mother arrived at the scene immediately and asked what was going on, but there was silence.Mr Quinn held his cheek which Tristan had slapped and gave
Tristan's mother exclaimed with so much anger in her tone, she looked at the lady whom Quinn had slapped and asked,"Are you alright?" Nodding her head in agreement, the lady replied,"Yes I am, he is always like this," she added, giving Quinn a menacing grin."I am not like this," Quinn interjected, his audacity to defend himself even when all evidence was against him came as a shock to everyone."In situations like this Mr," Tristan said while looking straight into Quinn's eyes,"You keep your mouth shut, greedy men like you only deserve to rot in jail, and I swear I'll make that happen. What you have done here is nothing but child abuse, I wonder how the child rights enforcement hasn't found you yet. " Tristan asked and turned to Max." How long till they get here? "he asked." five minutes Sir, they are close by," Max replied." Good, I want this place to be properly inspected, and this idiot arrested," Tristan concluded with a shrug.Quinn could not believe his ears, he never im
"What is it sir?" she asked with a smile, as she took a few steps forward, while the cops took care of Quinn.Tristan stared at her, and then at the old lady, and said,"Don't close it down, I want it renovated, the space should be enlarged, I will pay for everything," Tristan said and a warm smile came upon the old lady's face."And one more thing, I want her to manage this place," he added pointing at the lady, and he couldn't believe his eyes when tears trickled down the old lady's cheek, her hands covered her lips and she fell on her knees immediately.Tristan's mother walked to her and held her up, while she thanked Tristan wholeheartedly."Thank you so much sir, I was thinking about these children and... and ... I don't even know how to thank you.""There is no problem at all, I saw how passionate you are towards these children, and I thought it would be a good idea to leave them in your care, I'll provide anything you need for the job," Tristan added and she left Tristan's moth
"Welcome sir" The clerk greeted Tristan, as usual, she had a smile on her face which was very welcoming.Turning in her direction, Tristan retorted,"Thank you, how is work?" he asked. "It's going great sir, uhm… sir there is a lady who came by earlier today, she said her name was Marie and she showed me your business card that you gave to her. She wanted to see you, but I told her that you are absent."Tristan was surprised, a lot had happened that he did not even remember that he met Marie at the hospital a few weeks back." So she left? " He asked her briskly." No sir," replied the clerk." She left but came back a few hours later and now she's waiting for you at the cafeteria. I suggested that she call you but she refused to, I don't know why she insisted on seeing you in person. But I'll let her know that you are around now sir, if you are ready to see her.""Don't worry," Tristan interjected,"I'll meet her there, by the way, has Paul resumed?" He inquired."Yes sir, he was at
