Louis looked forward, unmoved by the reaction of people around him. Some of them looked fearful as jitters ran down their spine, causing them to shiver awkwardly, while others, the original competitors who started from the first test of the game, looked relaxed, their composure showing off their fearless nature.“Ladies and gentlemen, please can I have your attention,” the voice echoed through the speakers, causing Louis to mutter the word “finally”He leaned forward but remained conscious of where his foot tread. His eyes stayed fixed on the speaker, his ears stretched impatiently, waiting to hear what the next statement would be.The gap in silence from the speaker made him angry and question why they waited. They already have our attention, what are they still waiting for, Louis muttered. He knuckled his left palm and gazed in the direction where he spoke to Jessica and Raul, but they were not there. His main fear was Greg, who though he had not seen him, Louis could sense the tw

He was short of solutions. As people pranced around with their fake expressions glued to their faces, no one met his eyes or walked up to him. The few who met his eyes quickly looked away with disdain and muttered words that were quite audible to Louis.He tried speaking with a woman next to his right but she took a speedy reverse and dove out of his corner. Louis turned to the left.“Nah, I'm good. I already have someone I plan to work with,” That was the first word the person on the left uttered before he even thought to speak. The mission requested for a creative collaboration which Louis knew needed a time apart to deliberate, meet with the other end of the company and discuss plans for creation, but Louis was desperate to find someone who would look past his achievement and agree to talk to him.The isolation worsened as the clock ticked past minutes. He leaned his back against a wall and watched people talk about what they were going to do about their team up.Although some of

Chapter 124BLOOD!” Louis exclaimed. Speechlessly taking glances at the writing and Queen.“Can someone explain to me what happened here?” Louis yelled at the guardsThey rushed to his side, at a loss for answers to tell him. Their mouths quivered in fear as they pretended they were just seeing it.“What is this? How come this appeared here?” Louis thundered to the guards.They opened their mouths with no sounds coming out from them. Louis gaped at the blood in silence, shaken to his bones; he had never seen anything like this, not since the last docu-series of true crime he watched months ago. This was a dream, he prayed to feel a light tap that would wake him up from this gory scene but the rancid stench of the blood slapped him back from his wishes.He came closer to the scene, the blood was fresh on the floor, and it was a message written for him. He glanced at Queen who stared at him with worried eyes.“Is this what you tried to stop me from seeing?” Louis askedShe nodded and po

“Money, sir” they confessed “A man came here sharing money. He drove a few distance away and we followed him,”Louis gaped at them, wondering what a man and money had to do with any of this.“He came here seeking directions and we told him. All of a sudden, the man gave us some money to lead him forward,” they liedLouis looked forward, the road was straight as a ruler could ever be, causing him to wonder what could be confusing about pointing out a direction with their hands and why they would lose their minds for a couple dollars.“So you abandoned your job for an obvious trick to lead you away from your stand,” Louis thundered at them “We are sorry, we didn't think he had a plan,”“That's your freaking problem,” Louis snarled at them, his right hand formed the shape of a gun which he pointed to his head ”You are always trying to think but I'm paying you only to keep watch and never to think,” Louis stopped and gritted his teeth, he faced Queen taking deep breaths and glanced at h

The guards scanned the area, noticing the gate behind them were locked. They stared back at Queen who was making real on her threats.“How do you know of this and why didn't we see you enter,” they asked “The patriarchy must have messed up your head!” Queen blurted out “If I recall, you are in no position to be asking questions”“I know but I think we are on the same page,” The spokesperson of the ex-guards said “You knew we were plotting with an outsider to threaten Louis and you remained silent. If you ask me, we can work together…” Queen, without waiting for the guard to complete his statement, rushed forward, giving him a hot slap on his face. Her eyes burned like an angry goddess, sending hailstones to her offenders“How dare you insinuate that. I am nothing like you and will never be,” she claimed.“And for your information, I came early to file a document that was important but luckily, there I was, watching the five of you talking mysteriously to a stranger,”Queen was on a

Her voice struggled to speak up but with a forced breath, she forced it out“Master. Pardon if I ask, but how was the test?” Her voice stuttered Louis glanced at her, holding back his honest review of the terrible morning. He bit his upper lips and tapped rhythmically at his table, while Queen read his mood. She could see he was fighting his conscience from revealing anything to her.He rather not say anything to her but she was the first person asking him how the world decided to treat him. His fingers stopped tapping and started scraping the table, making an eerie sound.“It was nothing like my thoughts,” Louis said. He gave in to the urge to speak to her. She was smart anyway and he could share anything with her. Queen drew closer to his table with a step, her head leaning over for further explanations“If I may ask, what exactly were your thoughts?” She said after a brief hesitation.Louis chortled at her posture “ Look who's been a therapist right now,” he said, pointing at her

She begged for Louis to take her words seriously, to trust her when she said she had handled it to a certain extent.“I can feel the temptation to add this to your cart but you must consider yourself,”Louis stared at Queen, giving her words a thought. Everything sounded like facts to him but he couldn't hold himself from handling his problem. His fingers itched to get busy and his conscience wanted a dismissal of her pleas. However, deep down in his heart, he wanted to see if Queen had what it took to hold true to her words. With a grudge filled heart and a reply that felt like the weight of the world, crumpled upon it, muffling the volume of his voice.“Okay, thank you very much,” Louis uttered.Queen gaped at him, thinking Louis gave her a response to another question. She asked again if Louis would fuss over the situation but Louis gave her the same half-hearted response.“Gosh!” She exclaimed, brushing her hair to the side. “I didn't know you'd agree so easily,”Louis kept silen

“I told you I need to see our record sale,” Louis stated before she walked out.That was the documents she came to compile early in the morning before she got distracted by the works of their guards. She gnashed her teeth in fear and cooked up an excuse in her head.“Yes, master. I'm on it, I just need to extract the file before sending them to you,”She rushed out before he could reply. She did not want to give him a chance to fish out the threads from her lie.“Extraction!” Louis muttered, wondering if he heard her right. He left her to whatever excuse she gave him and busied himself with a portfolio of designs that was on his table. His company, Twin Tower, recently won an innovation award and was one step ahead of crossing another milestone. Due to this, they planned to do a new branding of their products and they needed his final decision. Those designs had slept on his table for more than three weeks, but he still didn't feel like picking a choice at all.He stared at the diff

“I thought so,” Louis said “I don't really know anything about your company, care to enlighten me?” “With all pleasure sir,” he said and proceeded to explain to him the needed information. The man had not been involved in any public controversy since his come up and he wasn't a fresh recruit in the game. He was among the survivors of the heavy tests who made it out with a lot of hits on the face and a low score. He explained that he was in need of a successful collaboration or a deal, one that would boost him to a good spot in the rank.“I might sound desperate but that is what I actually want right now,” he revealed “If I score very low again or submit a lacklustre result then I fear I may be eliminated,”“Hmm,” Louis sighed as he listened to his plea “But you have never failed any test, so why are you afraid of being eliminated,” he asked“I was unaware of a rule in the competition until yesterday,” the man replied.Louis' ear stood awake, his eyes bulging as his brows raised upw

“I don't understand, what's wrong?” the man asked “Are you angry at me because my company exploded?”Louis snarled at him and receded his steps again, causing the man to confuse Louis’ gesture as fright. He knuckled his fist like he was about to take advantage of the misread fear.“You don't have the right to judge me because we have different principles,”“Principles,” Louis fired back “this has nothing to do with principles, and I shouldn't give my reasons to anybody If I feel like not working with them,”The man hissed and scanned Louis from head to toe “Maybe, the scores you have in the competition must have been gassing your head up. Do you think you can survive this round without collaborating?” the man asked, growling like he was about to pounce on Louis.Since the man confused Louis who was trying to be the bigger person in the situation, for a frightened kid, Louis did not take any step away from him, he saw the energy he was given and wanted to perfectly match it. He smiled

He marched in to start his new found goal.The chattering of the hall was unexplainable. He could hear the noises of the contestants but the hall stayed silent. It was like the people talked with no sounds from their mouth.He looked around, scanning for where he would perch to access his target. They had to be potential bosses with a familiar look on their faces. A middle class company or even a bigger one would be the perfect fit to ask.As he was watching, he got distracted by two random men who engaged in a heated argument of who brought an idea first. To Louis, they wanted to heat up the argument to catch others' attention but sincerely, if you weren't Chris or a big company owner, then nobody would give a shit about what was going on with you.It went on and on until one of them decided to back down. Their scuffle was not enough to buy the attention of their fellow competitors. Louis laughed lightly at their childish display, knowing they were wrong at announcing their plans to

It left Louis thinking he had struck a nerve in him or snapped him back to his old self. Either way, Louis was not comfortable with the expression Greg had on his face. He coughed lightly and looked at the floor.“What is there to play safe?” Greg replied, his tone deep and authoritative “I already won the case and his company is already in the lurch.”“No, what I meant to say is, are you ready to put yourself in another scandal?” He glanced at the door and tilted his neck back to him “A cheating scandal with another CEO is pretty controversial,”“The public is not going to tell me what to do. I will do whatever makes me happy and I'll answer to no one,” Greg declared.Louis' face twitched, a testament that he was not in support with his statement. He swallowed his saliva and ruffled his hair.“I have no business with whatever you want, but I don't like the idea of using our alliance as a means to get closer to her,”“It goes against everything I planned for this to be. You will defin

Louis' eyes almost bulged out of his eye sockets, his hands tweaked In disgust as his feet vibrated to move away from his position. “Nobody told me Greg was this insensible,” Louis muttered to himself. He couldn't believe the words that just slipped out of his mouth; they were shards of glasses that were waiting to be stepped upon.“Greg,” Louis called out confidently “Please, I want you to understand that I am not forcing anybody to work with me,” he stared intently at him.“What I simply said is, as a new team I thought we would do the collaboration between ourselves. You know, to avoid indecision and make it easier for us as a team,”His words were like darts that launched straight into the scoreboard. It corrected Greg's notion but it wasn't sharp enough to make him utter an apology.“Okay, I've noted it,” Greg uttered, prompting more response from Louis.“This isn't what you should be knowing now, we are supposed to grasp this already,” Silence filled their atmosphere as shame

“I'm guessing you are the third person of this group,” Mrs Kimberly continued “I am whatever you want me to be in this group. The second man, the third member,” Greg leaned close to her ears, but fixing his eyes on Louis “I can even be the master of this team,”She chuckled lightly, flashing her eyes at Louis “Can you call me when it's time for the ultimate showdown,”They kept laughing; Mrs Kimberly appeared to be having a good time with Greg while Greg enjoyed being close to her. Louis got tired of seeing them whisper words to each other. He furrowed his eyebrows and pretended to cough while pointing at the empty seats.“Kimberly, welcome.” Louis voiced “It's good to see you. I don't want to keep you both standing, so can we take a seat,”She exchanged glances at Greg and Louis before walking towards one of the chairs. Greg appeared to be displeased by Louis who sat between them. He signalled to Louis to scoot over to the left chair but the purpose of Louis forming the alliance was

“So when can I get to meet my fellow ally,” she winked at him.“We will be having a meeting tomorrow. I don't know if you'd be available, but it is our first meeting, and it is scheduled for tomorrow morning at 10 am."Mrs Kimberly's eyes lit up with excitement as she nodded slowly. "I'll be there," she said. "Where are we going to have it?"Louis smiled confidently at her. "I have booked a room at the Drickons Hotel just a few blocks away.”Mrs Kimberly nodded. Her mind raced with the thoughts of who the last person was, but she stopped herself from asking Louis. Instead, she resolved to wait for an official introduction.Moreover, she already decided to look her best when the day comes."I will make sure I arrive before any of you,” she quipped, but her voice lingered with a hint of determination.Louis finished his conversation with her and waited for Mrs Kimberly to ask him any questions that bothered her but she had none for the moment.It was time Louis took his leave after comp

“No, trust me. It is not because of that,” he revealed “Then what? I told you I would like to join, so why are you rejecting me?”“I'm not rejecting you. I just don't want to force you into anything,”“How is that forcing me? Did you plan to hold a gun against my head?” She asked, her voice dripping with sarcasm.Kimberly, with a blur of desperation in her eyes, leaned forward to Louis “I know you must have heard everything that came out of my mouth, but I am willing to make my first try with you,”He raised a brow at her, skeptical of her forced statement “Why would you do that? I told you already, you don't have to because I'm not forcing you,”Mrs Kimberly inhaled deeply and raised her shoulders “I have seen the huge things you can do as a CEO of a little company like yours. How you raised it to compete at this level, and I can boldly ask you how many of your peers can claim to reach the success you have in such a short time,”“You helped me get my treasured buildings back from th

“She came begging me to collaborate with her,” Mrs Kimberly revealed “Just imagine the imp’s audacity,”Louis couldn't bring himself to tell her that he was here for the same reason. He could not believe that the person whom he had spent hours finding reasons not to add to his alliance hated them. And now it seems Louis needed her to control Greg's mouth.“What human being in their right mind would beg someone they tried to attack in the past? I could have smacked her teeth out but was busy pretending to be cool with her,”Mrs Kimberly rolled her eyes and pointed to the middle of the hall“There's more?” Louis asked, surprised at her decline. She hated alliances with all her bones in her body and she made sure to show Louis.“That man in a white suit,” she said.”Forget about his angelic act. That man is a demon and a lapdog to Chris,” She walked closer to Louis like she was about to whisper, “He came to me and pleaded I work with him, but I declined. I hope he fails this round of the
