Chapter 9

“What in the world are you doing? Who do you think you are?!” Jared was filled with rage, he was not even trying to understand what was going on. 

The only thing on his mind was how he was going to make sure that he made Keith pay for trying to embarrassing him. 

“You think there is something you can do? You don't even know who I am! I will make sure that you will die of hunger when I am done with you.” Jared began walking to Keith, he was going to make sure that he got his message to him. 

Keith looked back at Jared, he didn't know what he was planning to do but he was not about to stand there and watch them do something. 

“You know that there is no way for you to get anything out of whatever it is you are doing but I will tell you one thing. You have overstayed your welcome here and you don't want to make me angry.” Keith was not smiling anymore, he was looking at Jared trying to make sure he made go up to his hotel room and not take it too far. 

“What do you think you are? I am on top of the food chain, I am Jared Williams and I can do whatever I want and there is nothing you can do about it! You don't know this but you just made a mistake to even think of challenging me.” 

Jared was looking at him like he was looking at filth on the streets, he didn't know why Keith was talking back to him like there was something he could do or even think of doing but there was nothing there for him to do. 

“You know, I thought you would be smart enough to leave now and not take this shit too far but I see you like to get yourself into more trouble and I am willing to give you that if it's what you want.” Keith had a sinister smile on his face, there was no telling what was going on in his head and why he was looking at Jared like that. 

Eleanor was standing behind Jared and she couldn't believe what she was seeing this was the first time that she had ever seen Keith talk like he was a villian or like he was going to do something to anyone that would even come close to him. 

‘I don't get why they are treating him like a king? Keith Norman, the man I married, is nothing but a bum or is there something he didn't tell us?’ Eleanor knew that there was something she was missing and it was bothering her. 

Everyone present at the hotel lobby just stood there and witnessed the greatest confusion anyone would get in a while. Some minutes ago everyone was against the way Keith was even talking to Jared, they thought he was nothing but a bum trying to make sure that he got attention. 

But now it was not the same thing, they were filled with fear and there was no telling who Keith was and what he could do if he was able to make the owner of the City's largest hotel talk to him like a pauper. 

“Anyone able to talk to Jacqueline like that is not an ordinary man, Jacqueline is a force to be reckoned with and there is no telling who this man is. I have not seen him anywhere but only here.” 

“You are not lying, I didn't know that someone like this could even exist. I know there has to be something that he told Jacqueline to make him respect him like that.” 

“Can't you see how he is talking to Jacob Williams? There has been no one I repeat no one that would even think of talking to the Williams family heir like he was some kind of common man.” 

Everyone was looking at the commotion happening in front of them and there was confusion on who was on the right and who was meant to stop and leave the argument. 

“You vile insolent man! I am Jared Williams! Heir of the Williams family empire and the only man that would even think of being something in this town.”

Jared was not having any of the things Keith was saying and he was about to make sure that he didn't let him talk trash to him again. 

“You know, I don't really know when it was that someone told you that calling your name like that made it sound cool you're out here making it look like a freaking chore. Take my advice and leave this alone. You should be happy I am not throwing you out of this place.”

Keith was smiling when he turned to head up with Jacqueline, he wasn't going to take it too far so a fight won't break out. 

Jared was not going to let him walk out like that, he was going to make sure that he made Keith bow to him like all the servants would in his father's house. 

“Mr. Keith, please sir would you forgive me,” 

Keith paused to see who was pleading with him like that, he turned to see the manager that had gotten fired. 

“Oh you, you're still here and that is strange I thought you would have left the building by now?” Keith looked at him trying to find out why he was still there and what he was even trying to do. 

The man went on his kneels and began pleading with Keith, “I didn't know who you were and I was quick to judge, please will you forgive me and let me keep a job here. It's the only thing I have and there is no way I would survive.” 

Keith was shocked to see that the man would even beg him like that. “Wait am I in another universe now?” 

Keith had a surprised look on his face, he was not sure what he would say but he was just shocked how the man changed sides when he learnt that he was someone important to the hotel. 

“A few minutes ago you were about to throw me out of this hotel like I was nothing but a piece of shit. Now you are here begging me not to fire you, what a funny turn of events.” 

Keith was not going to let him off for insulting him like he was nothing to anyone but a bum because Jared told him to. 

“I swear, there was no way I would have done that if I didn't get the wrong information about you. I thought you were a good for nothing and that was what he told me and I didn't even think twice before I believed him.” 

The man was not even looking at Jared anymore, he wanted his job back and the only person that would even think helping him to get it back was Keith but there was a chance he was not going to get it back. 

Keith didn't say a word, he stood there looking at the man like he was some kind of irritation to his eyes. 

“You think that you can use that on me? You called me a bum and you said that you would make sure that there is no way you were going to let me stay in this hotel any longer. Are you telling me that you didn't know when you said those words?” 

Keith was looking at the man, he was not about to let him go without making him pay for all he said to him and all the bad words he used on him. 

“I did say all that but please can you forgive me. I am on my knees begging you to forgive me. There is no way I would think of trying to make you feel bad or something like that if I knew who you were.” 

“So now you know who I am, you want to respect me? You want me to forget all you said and let you work here like there was nothing wrong?” Keith was filled with rage and anger, he looked at the man. 

He knew that there was nothing genuine about the way he was begging for forgiveness that seemed any in all genuine and it was clear that there would be problems if he took him back. 

“You want to know what the foolish thing is? You told everyone that you would see to it that I am thrown out and I will be left homeless and poor. You even bet on it and now the tables have turned you want to get a second shot at things? There is no way I am letting you stay here any longer than this.”

Keith was stern, he knew that there was going to be nothing but trouble if he took the man in. 

“What are you saying sir?” The man was eager to hear Keith's answer even when he knew that there would be no chance in hell that he would even let him stay. 

“Get your filthy self out of here!” Keith growled in anger.
