"Oh, no! That can't be possible, how could grandfather make that bastard girl the CEO, what the hell is he thinking!" Vivienne shrieked, her voice echoing through the room. Her face was red with rage, and her eyes blazed with fury.Vivienne was the granddaughter of Mr. Augustus' first son, Mr. Jack. She was a strong-willed woman who would do anything for her husband, Mark. Mr. Augustus liked Mark, but he didn't feel comfortable with him, sensing something sinister about him.The room was filled with Mr. Augustus' extended family, including his children and grandchildren. Nick, born to Mr. Augustus' second child, was a cunning individual who always pretended to be cool. Angel, the last grandchild, born to Mr. Augustus' fourth child was childish and only knew how to spend money and shop. They were all in the room, including their parents, waiting for Mr. Augustus to arrive. Mrs. Augustus had already given them a hint about the meeting, which had sparked Vivienne's outburst.Vivienne's
Elena became the CEO of the A.G. Group, the company owned by her grandfather, and she was doing great with the help of Alexander. The company's profit share had skyrocketed within just two months of her arrival, and the board leaders had started to like her. She treated all staff and employees with respect, and currently, she was the wealthiest female in the city. Tracy's jealousy continued.Tracy was able to revive her family's company and stayed out of all charges with the help of Michael. Michael didn't have the idea that Tracy was just using him, and Tracy already had a big sinister plan to ruin him. Tracy decided to propose a business partnership deal with Elena, even though she wasn't happy about the success; she wanted to be a partner as A.G. was the number one best-performing company.She entered the company and was directed to the CEO's office. She headed there and arrived. She pushed the office door open, and there she was, Elena busy with her company. As soon as Tracy ent
Elena and Vivienne arrived at the venue where the birthday party was supposed to be held. Elena was dressed in a very short skirt and cropped top, which was unusually revealing for her, but Vivienne had convinced her strongly to wear it. Entering the bar, Elena was confused to find it empty, with only the bartender present. "Is this not the venue?" she asked, confusion etched on her face.Vivienne smiled. "Yeah, it is! But not just time yet. I just want us to be here early, before the cake and others arrive. I want you to be with me.""Oh," Elena stated, nodding, then looked around the bar. It was very wide and spacious for a birthday party. "Let's have some drinks before the cake and others arrive," Vivienne proposed."Mmm, no, please. I can't drink... I usually get drunk with just two cups of alcohol," Elena said.Vivienne convinced her, "Just a shot, a shot to clear our heads." Elena wanted to refuse, but Vivienne was pleading, so she gave in. They went to the bartender and ordere
Elena knew she had no choice but to do as Vivienne demanded, she stood in front of the room, taking a deep breath to calm her nerves. She had called a family meeting, and they were all waiting for her, including Vivienne, who was watching her with an icy gaze."What my precious daughter, you called for a family meeting, hope there is nothing seriously wrong". Elena's heart raced as she opened the door and began to speak."Nothing wrong," she started, her voice trembling. "I've been thinking a lot about my role as CEO, and I've come to realize that I don't want to do it anymore."Mr. Augustus looked at her with concern. "What's that, daughter? You're giving up the company? Why?, How?, Is there any one threatening you?, In just a few months in the company you have elevated it, and the profit has skyrocketed, why!".Elena took another deep breath before continuing. "Yesh, Grandfather, it's not that. It's just... being CEO is not my passion, I want to do something else".The room fell si
Alexander and Olivia sat in the car, the silence between them thick and heavy. Alexander was the one driving and he didn't have the idea of where he was going.Olivia tried to break the silence, but Alexander wasn't having it."Alexander… I am," Olivia said, her voice soft and sultry."Shut up, Olivia," Alexander growled, his eyes fixed on the road ahead. "Just shut up."Olivia pouted, her lips curling into a sulk.The silence continued, the only sound the hum of the engine and the rush of the wind outside. Alexander's mind raced with thoughts of Elena and the hurt he had caused her. He couldn't bear the thought of losing her, and he knew he had to make things right.But for now, he just drove, his eyes fixed on the road ahead, his heart heavy with regret.Olivia then stopped in the middle of the road."Please, get out", his voice was silent but stern."I am sorry..", she said."Just get out", he roared at him.Olivia then quietly opened the car and left. ALEXANDER was frustrated and
Alexander read what was written in the book, and couldn't help but frown. So, this must be the book his father was killed for. The book consisted of many high-profile people and politicians in a secret group, planning a coup on the present president and selling the country off. The only name he recognized was Mr. Harrington. He was still scanning the pages when his phone rang. It was Elena."Hello, Elena," he answered."Hello… Alexander… I am sorry, I… misunderstood you, I should have listened to you and trusted you", she apologized.Alexander was confused at first then realized that Olivia had gone to clear the confusion."Elena, I will never cheat on you, yeah… I shouldn't have been in that position but I didn't cheat on you", Alexander said."Okay, let's meet at Charles' school"."Okay, I'm on my way," he replied, and Elena immediately hung up.Alexander took the book with him and headed to meet Elena. When he arrived, Elena was already there with Charles. Charles rushed towards Al
Max denied vehemently if being bullied and the principal dismissed the case. And warned Alexander and Elena that doing this could make them sued.They walked out of the office while the principal made Max stay in the office with her."Well, we did our best", Elena stated. And Alexander nodded.Charles was very angry as he swiftly turned to them, "I told you not to make a big deal out of it, I told you to stay out of this, now you will make Max unfriend me, he is the only friend I ever had", he cried.Elena soothed him, "you see that we tried our best, but max deny it""Then what?, What next, he will just unfriend me, and nothing more, I caused this, I shouldn't have told you", he said and walked in fast paced waiting for them beside the car.Elena nodded, "my sweet son finally has to make friends and we messed it up!""He is not worthy to he his friend, he shouldn't deny an assault when we are trying to help", Alexander said."You shouldn't say that, no joke wants to become a coward
"There is nothing you can do, Ed have to endure this painful life, he has to endure it", the man lamented.Alexander Stern at him,"you don't have to let your child suffer this, you don't have to let him suffer for your failure, being poor doesn't justify your actions, put that at your mind".The man sniffled as he nodded, "I know…I know, I just have no choice", he started crying."Okay, I will give you $50 million dollars to start your life", he simply said.The man and his son raised up Thier heads at him and the man suddenly burst into my cries, "You don't have to joke in us, this isn't funny… please"."I am not joking, I will give you $50 million dollars.. in fact, let me make it $100 million dollars, just so you can start your life", he said, dipping his hand in his pocket.The man stopped crying and gazed up at him, "You mean, you will give us $100 million dollars!"."Yea"."That's alot, how… how…", the man stammered not knowing what to say."Chill, my account balance can't even
