William shivered, immediately he saw the dark shadow that had been cast on him.This caused him to finally cease his relentlessly assault on his former assistant.Turning around slowly, to get a proper look at the man who was standing behind him.William Herman locked eyes with Dean Bradson.The man's face didn't convey anger, rather it showed the face of a man who was annoyed, and disappointed… as strange as that was.William opened his mouth to dismiss Dean, but a Haymaker to the jaw, interrupted his words in a flash.The blow knocked William down and disoriented him, leaving him confused of his surroundings and situation for a brief moment.Dean, on the other hand, just stood there looking at him, waiting for him to recover his senses.Once William recovered, he spat out a tooth that had been knocked out by Dean, due to his attack.After seeing this, William's rage exploded, and he rushed at Dean, screaming loudly.Unfortunately for William, Dean dodges all of his slow attacks, bef
Carlos drove Dean and Mia to the Hamilton family compound.There he dropped the couple off and drove the vehicle away to prevent anyone from the family from noticing it.As Mia and Dean entered into the compound, Mia wanted to excitedly run inside the house to present the contract to her parents, but Dean held her back.He wanted to ensure that he was able to take control of whatever situation would arise.The couple both enter into the house's living room, there they see grace frantically cleaning up the place.“Grace” called out Mia.“Mia?” replied Grace as she turned to see Dean and Mia standing behind her. “Oh Mia, it's good to see that you are back” she added, with a smile on her face.“What's going on?, why are you rushing to clean up the place” asked Mia.“Oh, your grandfather told me to make sure the house was presentable, apparently, we will be getting a visit from a pretty important man, very soon” replied Grace.Dean and Mia looked at each, with the exact same thought in th
“Did you design this house Andrew, because if this kind of design is what I can expect from your work, perhaps I will have to re-evaluate our deal” said Michael, chucking slightly.Andrew laughed nervously at Michael's words, he knew he wasn't physically allowed to show how much they offended him.This was why he had to reach the top of the Reville elite hierarchy, to ensure that no one would ever be able to speak to him in this way, ever again.“I was my grandfather who designed the building almost a hundred years ago” said Harry, making Andrew breathe a huge sigh of relief that he didn't have to be the one to respond.“That's probably why the compound has a much more, Victorian aesthetic, it wasn't built for the modern day, but we are still proud of it as a family” added Harry, hoping to retain some pride in his family's home.Michael laughed loudly at Harry's words, making sure to open his mouth as widely as possible, to make sure the duo of father and son saw just how disrespectfu
“Your daughter?, why the hell did you tell me about a bloody statue, before you told me about her?”Michael's words made Harry and Andrew even more excited, now there was no doubt in their minds that he was interested in Mia.Now all Mia had to do was not mess it up, and they would have a ticket to expanding their wealth and power through an alliance with the Phillips's.Harry began walking briskly towards Mia, however as he did so, he was so smitten by her that he did not notice the pair of eyes that watched him from beside her.Dean noticed the young man intently walking towards his wife, and he was determined to make sure that he knocked him out of his high horse.“Well hello there” said Michael, trying to be playful as he finally got close enough to Mia.Mia flashed Michael a hostile look and asked, “who are you?”With a smile, Michael responded sarcastically, “Oh… I'm no one important, just Michael Philips”.“Who?” Mia asked again, this time raising an eyebrow.“Come on, baby, yo
“JUST TAKE THE GODDAMN MONEY TIMOTHY” yelled Sophia, her voice cracking with anger.She couldn't believe what she was seeing, the family was so close to wealth and power, and yet here Dean was, blocking them.She also shot her daughter an angry stare, that caused Mia to shudder in fear.Sophia partially blamed her daughter for this, as Dean wouldn't be here embarrassing Michael Phillips, if Mia had decided to listen to the family, and divorce him. “I can't accept only two and a half million dollars Sophia, I truly do love your daughter, and it would be a shame to dissolve our marriage because of such a negligible amount”Sophia stared at Dean intently, she didn't know if he was joking or being serious.While she didn't ever think that Dean would sell her out for money, she still didn't know how he would get out of this situation.The Hamilton family wasn't going to rest until they got him out of their home for good.However, despite how worried Mia was, she was going to put her trust
“I'll ask you again, WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY?!” yelled Michael.“And I will say it again, your companies aren't successful” replied Dean.The Hamilton family was collectively dumbfounded, Andrew wanted to say something but eventually decided to keep his mouth shut, at this point, nothing could defuse the situation.Dean had disrespected Andrew too much.“Come on Michael, you own all these hotels, shops, bars and dealerships, but you're running them all to the ground” Dean continued.“I have gone to some of these stores, and they are so badly managed and have so little customers that I constantly asked myself how they could possibly stay open, until… I eventually got the answer…"“You're using the incredible amount of wealth your father has to prop up your failing companies and inflate your net worth”Dean was now ready to deliver the final blow to Michael's Ego.So, with a smile, he said, “You have failed so much, that your failures are the only thing that's interesting about you, so mu
Everyone in the hall room had their eyes fixated on the television screen.As unbelievable as the bold headlines were, everyone knew they weren't imagining things.“PHILLIPS FAMILY SECURITY BUILDING DESTROYED, REVILLE'S PHILLIPS FAMILY, IS FINISHED”.Dean stood back, folding his hands and watching the scene unfold in front of him.Seeing Michael, who had been so brash and boastful only a few minutes ago, fall to his knees in shock and horror made Dean very pleased.Dean's plans had been wholly successful.He had cooked up this exact scenario the moment he knew that Michael Phillips, a member of the Phillips family, and third son of one of the people who killed his mother, was coming to visit the Hamilton's.Since he did not want the family, and especially Michael, to see him using his state of the art, high-tech Tablet, he had configured his phone much earlier to be able to sync to the tablet once a two-way authentication had been confirmed.He had explained the plan to Carlos and han
“I disown you”The words echoed constantly in Mia's ears, as she fell to her knees in complete defeat.Dean knelt bedside her, and could see the complete look of pain and defeat on her face.This caused him to hug her tightly and whisper to her “it's all right Mia, don't worry… it'll be okay”.“No it will not” interceded Harry, “I am not a massive fan of repeating myself, but I will say it again… leave this house, or I will call the police and get you thrown out”Mia sighed, she wanted to cry, but at this point, she had cried so much that tears could no longer come from her eyes.Mia just knelt on the ground, breathing heavily for a few minutes, in her heart, she wished her grandfather would turn to her and tell her that he had reversed his decision.But she knew this would never happen, she had completely destroyed her relationship with her family.Although she told herself she had never wanted this to happen, she knew that she fully expected this to happen. Dean was never going to g
