“Make sure I get the report stats, first thing tomorrow. I may not be around for a while but don't let anyone know of my absence, do you understand?” Louis commanded, rushing his words out in a very confident manner.He gave Queen several assignments to do while he was going away. His eyes were watchful of the road to be cautious if he was being tailed again, the number of bodyguards that followed him still didn't let him lose his guard for one bit.His head thought about the company college competition and how long he had stayed absent from going there. However, one of the reasons was that they remained inactive, and we're waiting for the next set of elimination trials. He remembered Chris and the weird energy that he exuded; he already perceived that his next presence at the game, he had to be very agile and cunning because they planned a forced attack against him.Louis swam deep in his thoughts when he noticed something familiar about the roads. It brought back a strange feeling o

“I don't get what you're saying. If you are not here for that purpose then why are you here? Because let's be real, you're nothing without us, no matter how hard you try to prove me wrong,” Zick fired without hesitation, snarling at Louis, tired of pretending like he genuinely welcomed his presence.“Thank Goodness, you decided to quit the friendly act. Of the truth, I was getting sick of it” Louis voiced out almost immediately, pressing his teeth together. His guts fumed with anger at the nerve of Zick thinking he came back to kneel at their feet and beg for his place back. That was the last thing he was going to do even if he had a bucket list of activities at his dying breath.“You arrogant prick,” the words seeped out of Zick’s mouth in a silent whisper that was, fortunately for him, inaudible to Louis. This raw confidence Louis showed was new and threatening to him, he had never known him to be so upfront since they lived together. What could have changed him? He knew he dared n

“Dad, great timing. It's Louis; he decided to show up today,” Gavin reported. He was the eldest of the cousins that stood there in the room, and with his father's presence, the head of the family, all the boldness they seemingly lacked at facing Louis crept back to them.“Louis, so you've decided to show yourself today, after fighting hard to work your way to the top without reaching out. Now you have come back after all this while, I can't say I'm surprised” Louis' uncle spoke with utter scorn in his face. His two sons, Gavin and Kent giggled as they walked to their father's side.His uncle noticed a change in Louis, but he never imagined he had made it big as a successful CEO; he just assumed Louis' hands stumbled on some quick cash, and he decided to show it off.“Mr Hank,” Louis began, making it clear that he wasn't here to feed their ego. The annoyance of his uncle for calling him by his name did not trouble him at all “let's not forget the part where I was thrown out in the mid

“Hurry up and disclose it, if that's going to send the right message to your thick skulls, then I'm down for it. Don't tell me you're scared?” Louis said, his expression demanding Hank to quickly let the cat out of the bag, because his delay in speaking up only made him furious to pull out his voice box.Regardless, Hank looked unbothered by his nephew's ongoing impatience, he took every Little opportunity to use the blank spaces as an advantage against Louis. Already, he had placed Louis in a sticky situation, where if he walked out on them, they would consider him a liar and afraid of owning up to his words and if he decided to undergo the test, they would make it miserable for him to overcome.“Scared!” Hank laughed after he glowered at him “Louis, there's no need for me to be afraid. If at all, You should be the one. And I suggest you should just come clean about yourself before you suffer the shame of first hand embarrassment. Trust me, it's going to be ugly,” he replied after a

Gavin looked very displeased at the door that was slammed on their faces; he stormed furiously to the door with his blood steaming with fury, his mouth already filled with complaints, but his father beckoned for him to return. Though the last statement of Louis troubled Hank, he remained rooted in his belief that Louis was going to fumble at the impossibility of the tests.He swore to make sure his nephew had a hard time figuring out the first test. He looked at both of his sons and he could easily see the slight worried look on their face. Their eyes wandered endlessly from side to side while their mouths tweaked in a futile attempt to hide their doubts about the task. He had to remind them about the history of the tests to calm their minds.“How many days do you think it's going to take him to wail back in shame?” Hank asked to boost their confidence but their stifled voices disappointed him.“I don't know, he seems pretty confident, and I think he has a trick up his sleeves,” Zick

Before he could finish his statement, the lady rolled her eyes at him and continued clicking on her computer. She made a face that seemed to suggest that she did not want any sort of disturbance, but Louis tapped her table with his finger, trying to keep on his faint smile.“I said I have an appointment” “I heard you. Can't you wait a few seconds?” the receptionist rudely answered, a few pitches away from shouting at him. As she returned her attention to her computer, she quietly muttered some words that Louis could partially understand, or he thought he did. “Yet another leech trying to crawl its way into a fountain. They never succeed anyway, but I wonder why they keep trying?”He didn't know if those were her exact words but he was sure she complained and viewed other people who wished to join as leeches. If only she knew who was standing across from her. Louis took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, watching her as she got busy with an austere look on her face. It made Louis wonde

Their eyes shot arrows at him and none of them missed a target. It made Louis wish he reconsidered cutting them short, but they were being too loud and would have gone on for hours if he had done nothing.“And who the hell are you?” The woman asked, frowning at him. “Speak up, since you don't know when important matters are being discussed.“Important?” Louis questioned in his head; that didn't sound important in any way; more like she was upset that he cut their fun for them. He started loathing the fact that he began on the wrong track.“My name is Louis, I'm supposed to have an interview here” They kept looking at him, expecting more information, but Louis kept silent, thinking he had said too much.“So we are supposed to know every Louis that steps in here for an interview,” the woman thundered “If you are one of those loser companies wasting my time, I'll make sure you pay dearly,” the man who made them laugh, threatened with a death stare on his face.One of the men came to Lo

“I think that's a wrap. Now, can we go back to our previous conversation?” the old man hurriedly said, taking a whiff of his cigar. Everyone except Greg and Louis nodded in unison, smiling gleefully as they couldn't wait to get back to whatever made them so engrossed.Their excitement quickly died down when Louis raised his hand upright with his lips pressed together, showing he did not like being the wet blanket in their midst but it was important to him. They all sighed, making tired faces at him while thinking about what could be so hard for him to understand.“I’ll answer all your questions privately,” Greg jumped in; his reason for it was unknown, but Louis swallowed his words from coming out and looked around awkwardly, tired of the shady actions that took place. He watched them fade into their chattering before a worker ushered him to another room to get his handprints and other vital information. The room was a little smaller than the other one, but with a white background and

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

“So what do you say, Greg?” Louis interrupted his fantasy. “Are you ready to join my alliance?”Greg's eyes burned with desire, he shone his eyes at Louis, nodding his head in quick motion.“Yeah, I will,” he smiled “You gotta introduce me to Mrs Kimberly,” Louis shrugged at his statement. “I hope you know she's married and living happily,” Louis interjected. “Why are you interested in meeting her?” “It's nothing, I just liked her since the day she caught my eye,” Greg said “Those eyes of yours shouldn't be catching anything that has already been claimed,” Louis warned for his good.“These eyes can catch whatever they want, as long as I can afford it,” Greg replied Louis cracked up at his statement, his laughter echoed through the restaurant. He found it amusing that Greg thought he could charm Mrs Kimberly, yet more thinking she couldn't take care of herself. If she demanded a price, Louis could confidently bet a million that Greg would not be able to meet up.“Whatever you say,

Was Mrs Kimberly a good person to associate with? He wondered. Was she worth any trouble? And if he turned out she was actually devious, would he be able to protect her?It also puzzled Louis why he never thought of this; maybe it was his instincts.“Desperate times call for desperate measures,” Louis stated. He decided to add Mrs Kimberly as part of his future alliance. He hoped they would work in his favor and never backstab him.The day went by without Louis making up his mind about his pick for the designs, but he was resolved to decide who would form his alliance.The next day, Louis went to a location to meet up with Greg. It marked the second time he waited for him. Louis subtly prayed for Greg to put any thought of wearing disguises aside. He wasn't in a mood to attract attention, especially when people knew who Greg was.However, to Louis' dismay, there was Greg dressed in casual wear at a five-star restaurant. The address was sent to him an hour after their last call, making
