Chapter One Hundred And Seventy Eight; Director Of Baron Enterprise.While Grandpa Brandy Baron thought that it was a good idea to let Kevin continue to do what he wanted to do, with the excuse of him being a child who would give them dreams up when the due time comes, his father thought otherwise. Patrick Baron insisted that Kevin should've been forced to remain in school until he graduates and becomes part of the family business, and was willing to do just about anything to make sure this happened.As for his mother, Mr. Melissa Bafon, she was just torn between wanting to see her child grow up the way he wanted and him taking some responsibilities that were due to him.That was why even when he escaped, she tried to follow him and talk some sense into her son, making him understand why it is that he couldn’t live his life just like he was about anybody. Kevin finally listened to the words of his mother, and also because he didn’t have much money to continue about living as a music
Chapter One Hundred And Seventy Nine; Truly, he had shown him.After going back and forth, exchanging words, the two parties finally decide on a place to meet, that place was no other than Luxus restaurant, the very one under Lucas’ name.It was the best place to go since both the two parties do not really like Lucas, so there was no way they could plan with him to make the stay of the other person more memorable in the negative or even positive kind of way. They also agreed to meet in broad daylight, so as to create a positive image in front of the general public. When they are seen together in a restaurant, eating together, one might easily forget that there was even a fluid between the two parties. As soon as those in question stepped foot into the restaurant, all eyes were on them.Santos Melaka was the first one to come, he came together with his rich father, as if he was accompanying him and in the same time showing the whole world that he had won the battle and Santos still r
Chapter One Hundred And Eighty; High end restaurant. Surely, before they would reach the seat, it would be easy for him to disappear by then, and they wouldn’t even know he was there, tahts would be better for him right?But then again, what would that mean? That he was not being professional? That he couldn’t stop and greet his other ViP guests? How would it sound in front of everyone? Lucas carefully thought about it and decided that it was better to meet the Barons, and who knows, he might be able to find out a thing or two about them too just like he did regarding the Melakas.As Patrick and Kevin Baron entered the restaurant, they were greeted by the maitre d' who led them to their reserved table. The restaurant was located in the heart of the city, and it was one of the most exclusive and high-end establishments in town. The interior was a stunning mix of modern and classic design, with elegant chandeliers hanging from the ceiling and plush leather chairs surrounding each tab
Chapter One Hundred And Eighty One; The Best Way To Revenge Glad that he was able to welcome them and treat them like any other VIP guest with out making it any more awkward than it could have been, LUCAS then let them to it and went back to his office.As soon as he entered his office and was settled, James came up to him and updated him with the news about Elio Galileo. “Sir, This case regarding Santos Melaka that you released not long ago had a little disadvantage to it, even though it might have some advantages to you personally. “What do you mean?” Lucas asked. “That’s right, when we had released the news regarding the things that Mr. Elio Galileo did a while back, we were achieving a very good result that we had expected.” James said a little too excited before he stopped smiling. “But unfortunately, it didn’t last too long for us to relish in the moment because you had soon released the matter regarding Santos, and what’s worse? The Barons couldn’t couldn’t stay back and k
Chapter One Hundred And Eighty Two; Words Of Wisdom, From Experience.“The best way to get revenge is to do what I am currently doing.” Lucas said to James who was standing in front of him with mixed feelings. “And what exactly is it that you are doing? It doesn’t seem to be so clear” James asked truthfully seeking advice because of resent, he had been resenting his cousin and just wish for bad things to happen to him, but at the same time, he d doesn’t want his cousin to get hurt, so he truly wanted to get advice from Lucas, who seem to always know what he was doing. “You need to take a look at the other side of life, the winning side of life by deeping your hands into whatever you could get yourself in and making your glorious come back, the best revenge is to become the least thing they would expect from you, that way, they’ll be too shocked to do anything when they realise how far you’ve already gone.” “Is that what you are doing now? The reason why you want to be like them is
Chapter One Hundred And Eighty Three; Don’t Celebrate Too Early Santos sat at the table with the elders, nervously tapping his foot under the table. He had always been anxious around them, feeling like he never quite measured up to their expectations. He fidgeted with his napkin, trying to keep his hands busy to distract from the uncomfortable silence that had settled over the group. They had been discussing business, and Santos had been asked a question he didn't know the answer to. He stammered out a response, but it was clear he didn't have the knowledge they were looking for. The elders looked disappointed, and Santos could feel his face turning red with embarrassment.Suddenly, Santos excused himself from the table, muttering something about needing to use the restroom. But as soon as he was out of sight of the elders, he made a beeline for the door. He needed to get out of there, to escape the judgmental stares and the feeling of inadequacy that weighed heavy on his shoulders.
Chapter One Hundred And Eighty Four; Powerless Due To Lack Of supporting Background. Santos and Lucas had been arch enemies for years, but just when it seemed like their relationship was taking a turn for the food, one thing had to mess it up, and this time, it was not Santos who had started it. All Lucas had to do was just to keep quiet like the good old days and let Santos have his way with him, after all, he was almost over with having the conversation anyway, but Lucas couldn’t take it any more. But Lucas called Santos out on his lies about his parents, and that was the first time that someone actually pointed it out to Santos right in front of him, it was then a big blow that he couldn’t take. Santos lost his temper there and then and he immediately punched Lucas in the face as soon as he finished talking for never in his life did he phantom such kind of scene where Lucas would be making fun of him and it drove him to the extreme end of his anger so much so that he couldn’t
Chapter One Hundred And Eighty Five; Reflecting on many things. Mr. Patrick had just finished dinner and came to an agreement with the Melaka’s about how they could resolve the problem between the two of them. And the worst part was that the Santos family refused to accept the fact that they were in fact, the genesis of the problem they were facing. Bug instead, blamed the Barons for digging out a story that doesn’t concern them and throwing it out to the public, something that has nothing to do with them. Mr. Ptrick Baron insisted that this was not the case, he promised that they were not aware of the situation until when they saw in on the news did they also find out about it. “By the way, is it true that she’s his mother? How did you allow such a thing to happen?” Patrick had asked the question but it only angered Mr. Malaka. “How are you still asking me this? Are you not satisfied with the results of your investigation? Do you need to hear it from my mouth first so that you
