“The Williams” A dark sinister smile spread on his lips as he heard the name and he sat up with a dark expression plastered on his face. That name brought up a lot of terrible memories back to his head, “What about them?” “My trusted source of information told me that they might have gone bankrupt but they were slowly crawling up again but are doing it low key, they are trying not to attract attention at all, they even changed their name to Valhalla industries. “Valhalla industries, huh?” Robert muttered and rested his back on the chair again. “I have heard that name before, they said it is a new to this business industry and is trying to slowly rise but their leaders are unknown” “Yes! They are hiding their identity from the public for now and trying to act as if they are laying low but in reality they aren’t. I also heard that they are aiming for the top like you but it is just for one reason, and I am sure you know it too… they want to bring you down. They have never agreed t
Robert proceeded into the building, the receptionist stood still to greet him but was shocked as she saw that it was the CEO of Penfolds Industries along with his managing director. She opened her mouth to speak but no word was coming outside, she wants to be happy that the CEO of Penfolds Industries is here but that is cold murderous gaze was enough to give her the slip that he wasn’t here for anything business related. He kept on looking around till he got to the elevator. The receptionist office was quite okay but none of them was to his taste. He buried his hands in his pocket and walked straight to his face, everyone bowed their head as they saw him walk past. They couldn’t move an inch as they saw him walk by. There was a knock on the door to the CEO office, the secretary stood up in shock, she wanted to usher them in but she was too scared to move an inch in his presence. The aura radiating that he was emitting was intimidating, his cold gaze piercing through her soul as sh
The door opened and Mrs. Alice stood there with her mask in her hand a shocked expression was plastered on his face as she saw Robert with a smirk on his face. His expression darkened as he saw her with a shocked expression on her face. She was the one that made his life a living hell. "You are the one that did it, huh?" She asked. What other reason would he be here if he wasn't the one that was the cause of the phone call that she received at home few minutes ago. She had tried calling her husband, Derrick but he wasn't picking up the call then she knew something must be up, she hurriedly came over and now she met the shock of her life. "What are you up to Robert, what do you want from us?" She asked with her head bent low."What do I want, huh?" Robert let out a soft laugh that held anger in it. He walked back inside the office and sat on the chair opposite Mr. Derrick's own. "It looks like things are about to get interesting, Robert. This is a nice family reunion or rather,
"You've crushed them enough, I think that is enough" Liam said while he was driving the car heading back for the road that separates the office road and the way to Robert's home. "You think so?" Robert asked, this time his pain could be heard in his voice, he wasn't trying to hide it like be did when they were all in the Valhalla office. "Yeah, you've done more than enough" Liam said, taking a turn and pulling up to park by the side so he could take a tab. Robert remained silent for a while, "You should go home to see your wife, I am pretty sure that she might be pissed at you for coming late"Liam stepped down from the car, he knew that was all he needed to lighten up Robert's mood. Robert quickly took a look at his watch which he wore on his left hand, "huh?!" His eyes widened as he saw the time was half past six pm. He quickly crossed to the other side, "bye Liam!" He yelled and drove off. He couldn't wait to meet up with his wife, in a few minutes time he was already at home
Hazel rolled on the bed, she yawned and rubbed her eyes, she woke up to the smell of coffee and freshly baked bread greeting her, it was placed on her bed. She looked up to see Robert’s brown lively eyes looking her with his lips stretched in a smile. “Good morning babe” he brought down his face to kiss her forehead. He had been watching her sleep for the past few minutes, he wanted to wake her up, but she looked so sweet and innocent that he couldn’t bear to wake her up from her sleep when she is clearly enjoying it.“Good morning darling” she draw the “darling” and bit on the bread, chewing on it softly with a smile on her face. “Wow this is so good, where do you ordered it from?”She sipped the coffee and looked at him from the corner of her eyes, she noticed the slight frown on her face. “Oh, is this for me?” she asked while raising the bread and the cup of coffee up.Robert didn’t reply, instead he kept on looking at her with the same look on his face. “What’s with the weird loo
Robert, walking to and fro in the corridor of the waiting room with a panicked, tears had clouded his eyes, he let them drop down his cheeks freely, he combed his hair backwards with his fingers. He had been waiting for the doctor’s report, he saw a man dressed in a doctor’s coat and a stethoscope hung around his neck. Robert hurriedly walked to him, half running, he couldn’t wait for the doctor to approach him, he felt like the doctor was taking too long to reach him. “What the fuck is wrong with my wife?” Robert held the shoulders of the doctor with a tag on his uniform “Mr. Sylvester”. Robert shook his shoulders vigorously. “I’ll advise you calm down Mr. Kade. Please follow me to my office” he said immediately he freed himself from the grasp of Robert’s strong grip.The sounds of running feet filled the corridor, Robert turned his head and saw Liam, he had folded the arms of his shirt and unbuttoned the first two buttons, he wasn’t putting on his tie and his suit again, he had
Robert walked into Hazel’s ward room with rose flowers which he placed by her window side, he remembered how she loved flowers. He was clad in a black hoodie and a black pant, he threw the hoodie over his head, he had been crying all night, he was sure that people would notice right away whenever they looked at him. He looked at Hazel, it pained him to see her in that state, a sigh of relief escaped his lips, there was still hope that she will survive. To him a thirty percent chance is better than none at all, there was still a glimpse of hope.He pulled off his hoodie and sat beside her bed staring at her beautiful face with a slight smile, “Stay strong and keep fighting, I swear I won’t rest till I get you the cure” he said and kissed the back of her hand. He heard the door to the ward room creak open, he turned his head to the side, to see who came in.His lips stretched to a weak smile as he saw that it was none other than Liam, just the perfect person he needs at the moment. L
There was pain visible in Robert’s voice while he was talking, he wiped a tear that was about to fall from his eye with the back of his palm. “We don’t know what really got her poisoned, the doctor said it might not be what she was eating at the moment, because the poison seems to have been eating her inside slowly” Liam stated sadly. The both men’ expression was filled with pain, their eyes no longer held the joy that it once did. Silence followed next, the room was so silent, the both of them looking at her and wishing that she would just move one of her fingers slightly to give them hope that she is going to live, they were both filled with fear.“What do you plan on doing now?” Liam asked, breaking the silence. A slight sad scoff escaped Robert’s lips. “I can’t sleep properly knowing that the love of my life is in the hospital and in a state between life and death. I called the best doctors from far away to come and have a check at her.” “She will live right?” Robert turned hi
