"Everything I have ever wanted?" scoffed Marko, "how on earth could you possibly know what I want?"
"Oh believe me Mr Marko, we know exactly what you want... it's the exact same thing your father wanted, and the reason he sought out Comet's help in the first place" replied Dean.Marko stared at Dean sternly, he wasn't very fond of the overtly confident, and smug tone that Dean had."And what exactly did my father want, why exactly did he come to you?" asked Marko."Vengance Mr Marko, your father wanted vengeance, and he came to us seeking vengeance"Dean's words sparked Marko's attention, causing the man to lean forward slightly, so he could pay proper attention to what Dean was saying."He wanted nothing more than to punish the Warringtons for what they did to your family, his conviction was so strong that he was willing to put it before anything else, including the requisition of his wealth" explained Dean."Yeah, he m"I refuse" replied Marko.These were the words that had echoed through the room over a minute ago, and all the while since then, the three men had basically maintained the positions, staring at each other.Dean had an especially annoyed look on his face, not beacuse he had any fear in him, but beacuse he felt that Marko was being unnecessarily stubborn."I wish... I wish to renegotiate some of the terms" stated Marko."Don't get me wrong, some terms of the deal are certainly very good for me, but there are certain aspects of it I cannot accept... so I would like to renegotiate"Dean sighed moderately, before he explained "That's truly unfortunate Mr Marko, but like I previously said, I am merely a Comet representative, I do not have the power to renegotiate the terms of this contract""Then take it back to your superiors... let me modify the terms of the contract, then you can send my modified contract to them for approval" offer
Marko did not sleep soundly the night before, in fact, he had barely gotten any sleep at all, since he stayed up late for most of the night, contemplating his next move.Even when he did fall asleep, he was so anxious that he would make up soon after, resulting in him getting only a whopping 3 hours of sleep.Marko couldn't help but pace around his house for hours after he signed the new contract.His eyes hurt, and his head was pounding due to a lack of properties sleep, but he couldn't care less.He wasn't sure what his next move should be, although one thing was certain... he had to contact his family whether he liked it or not.He needed to organise a meeting, one that every senior member of the family could join.But who exactly could he call?Aside from himself, the only senior ranking member of the family he could think of was his aunt Mirabel, but she was currently shut out from the rest of the world.But she did
"Hello Everyone, we're going to make this meeting short and simple, I don't want to waste anyone's time here, I know you all can't wait to run away from your responsibilities" began Marko.His opening remarks caused the entire sitting room to collectively scoff, as while they were all offended by his words, they understood just how their recent actions, or lack thereof, could be seen as cowardly."The Phillips security company has been sold to Comet, and with it, the Phillips security building" stated Marko."How on earth could you do something like that?... The Phillips security company, and ESPECIALLY the secrets to the Phillips security building was all we had, how could you give it away?" asked Roderick, angrily."I did not give it away, Roderick, I sold it... and you, me, and everyone else in this family will benefit from it""Could you not negotiate for a better deal Marko?, at least one that did not involve us loosing the Phillips
Dean awoke from his slumber, and lazily stepped out of the office chair.Rubbing his eyes slightly, Dean slowly made his way to a water dispenser, where he poured himself a cool glass of water.Dean absolutely hated the late nights he had to spend in the office every few months lately.Ever since Mia became the CEO of Hamilton constructions over a year ago, Dean had basically been running the company the entire time.For the most part, Mia was simply there to sign the documents, documents she usually didn't even bother to read before signing, as she had so much faith in Dean's judgment.And she had a very good reason to trust Dean's judgment, as since taking control of Hamilton constructions, the company had grown more than 10 fold, and had become a five hundred million dollar company.This caused the company to expand massively every couple of months, causing Dean to have to spend the night in the office, signing documents, deals and
Eventually, Dean finally arrived at the Hamilton family house, and once he had parked his car in the garage, he took a few seconds to look at the new and improved Hamilton family mansion.Although the sun hadn't risen yet, and night was still very much in full swing, the lights around the compound made it very easy for him to properly observe the house.The house was more than twice the size it used to be just a year ago, and had expanded by basically buying out the two other compounds located on each side of the family's compound.The renovation of the Hamilton family house into a brand new mansion, took around three months to complete, and cost the family around 50 million dollars to achieve, 50 million dollars that they could only acquire through Dean's management of their company.You would think that after all of this, after Dean had given the Hamiltons so much money, that they would actually show he and Mia some more respect, respect that th
Richard Dawkins's Account :Aaaah Parlsbury, never would have thought in all my life that I would be here, investigating perhaps the biggest act of sabotage the nation of Orzan has ever seen.As I sat in a local Parlsbury coffee shop, all I could think about was how I was not wearing my signature yellow raincoat, cap, sunglasses and gloves.Instead, I had my face exposed for the whole world to see... well sort of.I had on a white polo neck sweater, with a pair of blue jeans and brown Timberland boots.I wore a beanie over my head, although my head no longer had any hair for said beanie to cover up, as I had shaved the entire off to hide my hair colour.However, I decided that it would make more sense if I had some kind of hair on my head, so for the first time ever, I decided to grow some facial hair... although I did dye it red so I could countinue to hide my hair colour.Finally, I had on my signature dark glasses and gloves, a
Richard Dawkins Pov :I took a final sip of my coffee, before setting down the cup on the table.I have been investigating Comet at Parlsbury for several months now, and so far, I can't really say that I have learnt anything significant about Comet, or have even come any closer to finding Comet's relationship with the Phillips family.However, despite not coming any closer to solving the case with the Phillips family, I have made quite a lot of interesting discoveries since I came here.First of all, Comet completely owns this city, from the police department, to the office of the mayor, to the public schools... everything, everything in this city is under the control of Comet.The city is filled to the brim with multiple Comet buildings and facilities everywhere.Since Comet is based in this city, and since it's such an absolutely gargantuan company, the conglomerate is by far the largest source of revenue for the city, as Comet alon
"RICHARD DAWKINS!" yelled Dean from the front of the door."shhhhhh..." was Mia's response from behind the door, as she was still afraid that he would wake the baby.Dean heard this and decided it was best he move away from the door even more, towards the downstairs."What do you mean by Richard Dawkins, Carlos?, I thought he had ended his investigation" said Dean, almost shouting through the phone."Well, he lied Boss... turns out he was playing us this entire time" responded Carlos."Goddamn it!" yelled Dean again, although he silently promised himself that he'd stop yelling, as he didn't want to wake the entire family."Carlos, I just got back home, and I know it's been a while... but I need you to meet me at the Shadow Acre as soon as possible, it's an emergency" demanded Dean."Of course Boss, I am already on my way" said Carlos.With that, Dean cut the call and then proceeded to rush back upstairs into he and M
