Dealing with his forces.Jacob Morgan walked into the Murphy branch of Stark company at Luz. He had booked a flight earlier in the day to make it a quick visit. Jacob did his research on the Stark family and found out that Brandley's Uncles were on a bad term with him. Jacob wishes to pay Murphy a visit since he was the bigger catch in the picture.He brought all the needed documents along, ready to pitch his business idea on the marketing strategy to him.Jacob knocked on the door once before letting himself into the spacious and conducive working environment. He noticed that every building of the Stark speaks of power and wealth. Each building has its own unique style but no company can be compared to it.Jacob studied the man before him, his gray hair which has taken a larger portion on his head speaks of years of experience and competence.No wonder both Uncles were devising a way to be in charge of the company. Jacob would have done something more brutal if that would make him t
RevengeBrandley met with his lawyer to file a case against Jacob for assault. That's just the beginning of his revenge. Even though the family lawyer, Aaron, told him that it would be difficult to file a case without concrete evidence.Brandley told him that he was the evidence and his mom as witness. It's true that no lawyer would dare go against the wish of the Stark heir, except if he/she wants his firm to be closed down.It's just the close of dawn when he finished discussing with Aaron. He wouldn't appear in court but would want Jacob to pay his fine. He would fine him for every scar Jacob inflicted on his body, before moving on to that of his mom.He could remember that they had a CCTV camera in the house then, all he needed to do was to plant someone in the house so he could have it. All the money Jacob had refused to help him with, he would pay them as fine and have it donated to the orphanage homes within Westend.Brandley tailored suits were out of shape due to working sch
son more than her The rumor Jacob's face turned red with rage as he slammed his fist on the desk. "He has no right!" he bellowed. "No right to drag up the past like this!"His lawyer, a calm and collected woman, placed a hand on his shoulder trying to calm him down.Jacob's eyes narrowed as he leaned in, his voice taking on a menacing tone. "I want you to dig up everything you can on Brandley. I want to know his secrets, his weaknesses. I want to know everything that can be used against him."His lawyer hesitated, a look of concern crossing her face. "Jacob, I understand your desire to win, but we need to be careful. We can't engage in any illegal or unethical activities."Jacob's smile was cold and calculating. "Don't worry about that. Just get me the information. I'll take care of the rest."The lawyer nodded, her eyes dropping to her notes. "I'll get started right away."Jacob's eyes never left hers, his gaze piercing and intense. "I want daily updates. I want to know everything
Her wishMona sat across Brandley in his office, beaming with her puffy eyes. She finds what she did very funny even to herself. She was too surprised for a reaction when she saw the headline this morning. Afraid of Brandley who would think she did it. She had made her way to the office without thinking twice. Called the family stylist to model her up so she wouldn't appear too ordinary before the board.She thought hard on what to do, on her way to the office. She thought of what to do so much that she almost passed out in the car.When she got to the office and was told that Brandley was about to have a conference meeting. She quickly made her way to the conference room, she ignored the stupid look the workers were throwing her way.Mona then did the first thing that comes to mind, crying before the board to help her save her marriage. She would even go as far as kneeling down before them if she has to but luckily enough it didn't get to that.She believes there to be a camera that
Stop actingBrandley was alone in his office, Mona had left a while ago after he had his PA, Chris, to get him colored glasses.He still found her action childish after the kiss, she refused to look at him, hitting his chest each time he teased her for it.He enjoys the kiss more than anything else, that would be the second time he has his lips on her and wishes it never leaves hers. So soft and succulent.Just maybe he would continue if he returned home, he wished to go home to her but knew that would be like an impossible mission. She wouldn't let him touch her, that he knows. His thoughts were cut short with the ringing of the telephone, he picked it and his secretary's voice came through."Sir, one Miss Via sought to see you and she said it's urgent," the secretary said.A frown appears on his face, Via? What's she doing here?"Let her come through," Brandley said instead.The door opened widely, Via stood by the doorway, waiting for Brandley to invite her in, when she saw that t
Chapter 31Start living your life.Mona sat down on the stand before the counter, her head supported by her hand. She couldn't stop smiling after what had happened in Brandley's office. She was too shy to look him in the eye after the kiss, Brandley teased endlessly for being a shy fish.She wondered why he nicknamed her "fish" when she doesn't act like one. Everything that comes out of his mouth is always cute except for the time he was angry."Would you stop smiling like a fool and give me a helping hand?" Ariel said, looking at her friend as if she had lost it."Join you, with this kind of dress I'm wearing, besides I'm a customer today and not a worker. It's not like you are paying me for all the work I'm doing" Mona said with a straight face.Ariel acted like she wanted to hit her with the tray in her hand."Well you were the one who doesn't want to be paid, guess your man has so much money that the one you earn is just like a drop of water in the ocean" Ariel said winking at her
Beware of her!Brandley got home exhausted and drained, it was as if his enemies had chosen today to attack him when he's fully unprepared. Today was a crazy day to be remembered in his history. He chuckled at the thought.Just when he thought he was done with the bullshit, Murphy entered his office. It seems the man has been waiting for a perfect opportunity to bring that damn business idea to him.He never knew Jacob would be so cunning in his dealing with him, using his Uncle against him. Murphy brought the same project he rejected two weeks back to him, for signature saying it would boost the business. It was Jacob's doing. He doesn't understand the reason the man was hellbent on getting a contract with his company. He was surprised though, the man was too greedy for his own good. The bonus attached to the contract his company offers to their partners wasn't small enough to make a greedy man jump over the fence.He knew what to do in this case though, he would rewrite the contra
Damnit!Monday 9:00 AMJacob was seated behind his desk, working on his computer when an email popped up. He clicked on it to see what it was. His face scrunched up in disgust and anger."Damnit!" He bangs the table real hard. What game does Brandley think he is playing with him huh? He removed all the bigger bonuses and left the smaller ones, is he trying his patience or what.He took his tab and dialed his number, it rang twice before Brandley answered the call."Good day sir, how may I help you" Brandley said even though he knew all this was about the contract."How may you help me? What's the meaning of that contract you sent to me? I understand that you probably might have made a mistake" Jacob tried to hide the anger in his voice but failed miserably."I'm sure this wasn't the first time you received a contract, whatever is written there is what it means. Do have a great day ahead, thanks for contacting our company" Brandley ended the call with a smirk on his face."Ugh this gu
