Oliver has a delivery to a customer online. He placed the orders for the pastries on the motorcycle Adam lent him. The customer's location is a bit far but there's no traffic so he can easily go there. While he was driving, a red car sped up on the other side and almost ran him over."What the hell!" His soul was almost torn from his body in sheer shock. He fell off the motorcycle but was not injured because he was wearing safety gear and a helmet. The red Lamborghini stopped when a traffic enforcer stopped him. Oliver slowly stood up even though his left leg hurt. He approached the fancy car and he didn't expect to see a man when he opened the window. "Carter??" He looked at his stepbrother who raised his shades. "Who are you?" Carter couldn't recognize him because of his black helmet so he took it off."Oh! It's you Oliver? Wow. You're a delivery rider now?" "Jerk. Did you see the red light? So why are you speeding?!" Oliver was pissed off. "Sorry I thought it was green," Carter
"Carter was mad knowing that Adamson gave reports on me about what he was doing in the company. He thought that I believed Adamson more than his reasons. I was fair to both sides, there were only issues with the workers in the company and we fixed it little by little," When the CEO returned to the company, Adam and his son Carter had conflicts. "Yeah Adam shared about it, it's a big problem that needs to be resolved. I was just surprised when he informed me he resigned, I was wondering if something bad happened to him," Oliver knew that his friend would not leave for no big reason. "Don't worry, I'll give him some time to think about it." His dad opened the box that he delivered, he saw that the cake inside was damaged. "Sorry if I ruined it," Oliver apologized. "No, it's fine. This still looks delicious," Mr. Thompson licking the cake icing on his finger."You're now leaving?" His dad noticed that he stood up. "Yeah. I still have deliveries to other customers, there are a lot of
Silence engulfed them both. Oliver's heavy feelings for his father will not go away immediately, he still needs a long time to heal. Moving on is a long process he needs to take. "A day will come when I will no longer be a vagabond. Life is indeed unfair. It is difficult to live in the world to be a poor person. Only the rich can get enjoy life while they also step on poor creatures. The poor one also has the right to be respected, heard, and treated right," Even if Oliver wants to fight for his dignity, he can't please everyone because he has no place in the world unless he reveals that he is the son of a rich man. "This is how the world is, son, there's an inequality between the rich and poor. Money, popularity, and your status in life are the basis for people to respect you. If you don't have those things, then they will look down on you," the CEO said taking a deep breath, "You're respectable as you're my son. It's your choice not to tell anybody, but once the world will know we
The CEO has a big plan for his sons to have unity to save his family's legacy. But the big problem is, they can't get along, so he must find a way while it's early before he disappears from the world and he can leave them behind and become a responsible heir to his business. Mr.Thompson cleared his mind full of thoughts, and he focused on the main topic which was about his mission for his son, "I already planned something big with you two from the beginning because you are the last remaining Thompsons alive, I am not immortal to live long, a time will come that I'll pass away cause I'm old and everything that our clans started will be left to the two of you," guys remained silent with their arms crossed, obviously uninterested but both were curious about what challenge was prepared for them. "You have three missions and you will do them whether you want it or not, as I've said you're both a Thompson and you can't escape it unless you surrender and be killed," he walked near a comput
The third mission of their father for them is to give him grandchildren. It was his dream to experience having grandchildren, and Carter and Oliver could give him that. "If I give you a grandson, should I also marry a rich woman?" Oliver asked his father. "You can marry anyone, it's up to you who is the woman you will be with forever to bear children. I have no problem with that. I will not force you to give me a grandchild right away, if only one of you is ready then I'll be glad but if you're not ready to become a father, no pressure," he answered. "T-that's good, having children is fun but in my situation. I'm not ready to settle down especially since I'm starting over. I'll just stick with the second mission and I'll help to find that kidnapper," Having a family was also a dream of Oliver but it disappeared when Merideth, his first love who is now Carter's wife, left him. He looked at his brother who will have a child with his ex-girlfriend in the future. "Since I'm already ma
Carter Thompson is a competitive person, eager to be more successful than others. He grew up thinking he was better, ambitious, and arrogant. Determined not to be beaten in every big or small thing. Will do whatever it takes to fulfill his desires even if he steps on someone else's feet. He looks down on his stepbrother that way because he knows that he is no match for him and that he is more capable of everything. "Carter, there will be no competition here. I created this mission for you to unite, there are important people you need to find and you will not succeed in the search if you go your separate ways. You better stick together and understand each other, and came up with a good plan. You both need to pull the messy threads that were entangled in our life which cause chaos," Mr. Thompson reminded Carter. "What should we do with a messy thread if we cannot find the end of it? Then let's cut it off," Carter responded, "From the beginning dad we know who put danger in our lives.
Oliver was surprised by what he heard but he already moved on and was happy for them. The only sad thing is that the woman he dreamed of being with started a family and made it happen with his stepbrother. "Are you okay?" Oliver was startled when Julie snapped her fingers, "You're thinking deep again?" "Uhmm.I'm fine. Anyways, I thought you were busy at the shop today?" "Merideth invited me here at the mansion and I couldn't refuse her and luckily Adam agreed to let me go out to the shop for a while," she shared, "And you? What are you doing with Carter?" There is curiosity in her eyes."We just met on the road, his car had a flat tire, then he had an emergency, and he had no choice but to ride my motorcycle." "Really? You drove him with this motorcycle?" Julie pointed to where Oliver was sitting, "Are you serious? So you had time together?" Julie thought that the stepbrothers might be starting to get close. "Nah. We didn't talk. We're not on good terms," Oliver lied, he couldn
Carter acts like he was amazed at what Oliver said, "That's heart-melting but I can't trust someone who had a history with the person I love. Who knows? Maybe you will take revenge and steal from me what you lost?" he said sarcastically, he's trying to trigger his emotions, "Some guys will kill because of betrayals but you're just crying like a baby," He laughed remembering the time were he planned the proposal to embarrassed Oliver. "Why would I? Is there any reason to take back the woman who left me for another man? Because if I know she was taken from me. Then I will take her back," Oliver responded which also played along with him, "You won't like my revenge if I found out something to give me a reason to take back what I lost." Before, Oliver felt that Merideth didn't want to marry Carter but he let go of the doubt little did he know that his thoughts were accurate because Carter was the one who framed Merideth to leave Oliver. The woman on the side, Julie, felt nervous as she l
