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

    Louis believed he heard every word right, they echoed in his brain, making a resonating budge to shift back a few steps, at least to fully access who stood at his front with an innocent look. Greg stood, staring intently at him, patiently waiting for an answer. All of a sudden, his shadow looked threatening to Louis; his upright pose seemed ingenuine, and if he had moved his mouth, Louis would have sworn he laughed like a demon with scathing teeth.“You need my help for what? I didn't quite get the last statement,” Louis inquired, anticipating to hear him change the word out of guilt but Greg stood ten toes down at what he formerly said.“I need your help to eliminate a rival company for me,”An urge to ruffle the hair on his head gripped Louis, and he began to itch his head slowly, thinking of the best response to give him.“That's straight to the point, but I'm sorry I can't help you. I try my best to mind my business and stay out of others,” Louis stated, unsure of what was the bes

    Taking down a company with solid evidence was too big of a deal to settle for only a black card VIP status, he had to aim higher. He wasn't sure how far it was going to take him but he had to try.“I did have my interest in acquiring the black card, but I don't think it will be easy the way you claim it to be” “I heard that I'd have to stay for at least five years, and I just got in, what? Few hours ago” Louis added. He did his best to not appear moved by the offer.“Leave that to me; I can make it work,” Greg beat his chest, promising easy access to it, “ my impact in this Union has made me respectable here; I'm sure they would pull some strings for me. Besides my relation with the government, brings them all closer to me” “I'm sorry, did you say government?” Louis asked, pondering what he meant by relation. Could he be killing two birds with just a stone, or his head was being filled with delusions? “I got close ties with the president, so some of them leech on me, just for the t

    She had no business uttering that name from her mouth; it could have been a coincidence, but that didn't stop Louis from walking up to her. The terror on her face spoke words of fright for her. It was her sane mentality that stopped her running out of her chair, she quickly got on her knees to beg him to keep her job.She made sure her head touched the floor, as she let out the tears from her eyes, crying out for him to forgive her. She kept weeping uncontrollably, giving Louis no chance to speak at all. Every attempt by Louis to speak was met with a greater intensity of tears flowing down her cheeks. He was forced to yell at her before she kept her mouth shut with occasional sniffing of her nose.“You mentioned a name familiar to me, who called you a few seconds ago?” Louis asked with a commanding tone.The receptionist lifted her face and dried the tears from her eyes, paying attention to Louis to repeat his question one more time.“Who phoned you just now?” Louis inquired “A man,”

    To his surprise, The night was calm for Louis, despite predicting himself to have an upsetting night because of Greg and his knowledge of Hank's sabotaging movement, but everything flew to the back of his mind. For the first time, the push to worry deeply about his next move was void, he could only feel a transient rush of confidence and boldness countering the urge. Instead, he called his pilot to let him know he would be flying back to his company on a mission.He did not call Queen or leave any message of his brief appearance because he felt that a surprise show-up would not raise alarm if they diligently kept to their work, not that he thought of her as lazy anyway. The night quickly gave way to a beautiful morning and Louis was up and ready for his flight before the clock struck seven. He couldn't foretell how long finding evidence in his safe was going to take, but he planned on returning that same day.In the plane, the thought of breaking a record in his family's history exh

    She smiled and pointed to the file, her gaze telling him to open it.“I’m sure some of the answers are in there,”Louis quickly read through the file and the amount of government taxes Greg's rival owed was insane. They have been evading taxes and nobody knew about this. Louis knew Greg's rival could be imprisoned by the IRS if they found out. It explained why Greg relied on the evidence to save him.But that didn't give him any answers about what they used to blackmail Greg to keep his mouth shut. He flipped the four pages of the document, but it only contained a tabulated amount of their debt and an old blurry picture of a young man.“There's something you're not telling me,” Louis said, slowly becoming anxious about the little gaps he began to perceive.“I still don't have the full story, so you're gonna have to force Greg to complete the story for you” Queen interjected.She crossed her arms and inhaled deeply while Her eyes gazed timidly at the documents in Louis' hands.“Mayor S

    “What do you mean by my plans? I'm just a man looking for where to make good business,” The man looked around, itching his hair and avoiding contact with Louis' eyes. He stuttered without control and moved his chair backward.“Businessman? You still think I'm a fool?” Louis yelled even louder at him and leaned closer to grab the man's collar.The man tried to quickly pull back but he couldn't outrun Louis’ swift move. The grip on his collar was faster than he could blink his eyes.“Who sent you?” Louis fired, seizing his shirt as the man struggled to set himself free.“What are you doing? Let go of me. Do you know who I am?” The man stammered, trying to loosen Louis’ grip.His attempt at removing his grip failed. Instead, it became very constricting, almost snuffing the breath out of him.“Pinhead, I asked you a question. Don't test my patience,” Louis accused, his eyes red with fury.“Who're you calling a pinhead? I wasn't sent by anyone in the college competition, now let go of me,

    “Are you done with them?” The man asked.The low, menacing rumble of the man made him intimidated, making Louis feel a swallow of spit move down his throat.“Yeah, For now at least but I still have to get back the contract from them with their signatures,” Louis said, feeling the need to explain.“But you got time for me now, right?” Louis nodded at his question, though it sounded a tiny bit like a command to him.“Um, sure. I got all day,”“If I invest with you, how many shareholders will I be joining?”Louis grimaced at his question, wondering what he truthfully meant by the question. Maybe he was being too careful and over-conscious about where his money was going, but that question was too early to ask when they barely knew each other.“None for now. When I bought the company, I paid off all of the shareholders their money because they didn't want any part of it any longer. But now aside from the three men that just left, it's none,” Louis forced himself to give him a straight an

    Louis felt the need to lay his objective of the company flat to them without any lies or buttering them up.“Big. My goal for the company is to make it big and very famous so that people have to wonder who is running it behind the scenes, just like the owner of the Twin Tower company,” he replied.A laugh forced itself out from one of the men“I'm sorry; I know that wasn't right, but I had to. Do you think you could easily make it big like Twin Towers? Let's not be delusional, okay?” The man who had previously asked Louis a question said.“What's delusional about it? The only thing I need is time, resources, and a good team. Of which I'm lucky to have both of them,” Louis replied“With the small size of your company, I doubt you'd be as big as Twin Tower. It is one of the largest, well-known companies in the world. Let us be real for once; I know you are trying to impress us but stop,” the first man chimed in.They had already begun to belittle Low Props which made Louis ponder if the

    He thought of how he would improve Low Props' efficiency, but there was no way the company was going to skyrocket without any help. If he used any external help from his Twin Tower company, it would reveal his secret to the public, and now he caught Chris snooping around him, it put his identity in jeopardy.The investors Queen had shown him quickly flashed through his mind. He decided to use the opportunity to save him some points in the game, but first, he had to know if Queen was done scheduling the meeting.He quickly gave Queen a phone call.“Queen, how's the schedule with the investors going?” Louis immediately asked the moment she picked up. His rushed question did not even give her a chance to think.“The schedule?” She asked back in shock “Oh yes, the schedule, it's already done sir, I scheduled them for tomorrow morning but some were eager to have a meeting with you today,”The next day was going to be a long wait for him as long as the pressure from the game was on his back

    “Really?” She exclaimed in excitement. “I don't even know what to say” A wide smile gleamed on her face.Louis shook his head with a weak smile, pointing his fingers to the ceiling.“How about you don't say anything at all, we still gotta wait for the results,” “I know but I'm so moved by your generosity,” Mrs Kimberly bowed her head in appreciation as she could not contain the gratitude she felt in her heart.“I told you, no need to start thanking me. Wait till we are done with this round,” Louis said. He moved an inch away from her and turned his back to check if Chris was still pacing around. His inquiry was confirmed. Chris still stood there facing them with a crooked grin on his face.“Goodness! Is he still here?” Louis mumbled, huffing in disappointment about his presence. Feeling forced to talk to Chris, he turned to Mrs Kimberly to tell her goodbye.“I'll be on my way. I got a lot to do,”He waved his hands at her and she returned it with a curtsey. “Sir,”Her little whispe

    “I must be extremely lucky to run into you guys today,” Chris said, feigning a wide smile on his lips at Louis. It forced the woman to roll her eyes and take wicked glances at him while Louis stared intently, positive that there was a backstory between them.“Am I interrupting something?” Chris asked. He looked inquisitive to be a part of the conversation “Isn’t it a little too obvious to ask that kind of question? But In case you have turned blind, Yes, you are interrupting us, so go back to the hole you crept out from,” Mrs. Kimberly fired with a harsh tone at Chris. The hate in her eyes glowed red with suppressed rage.“Who the hell made you the queen to tell me what to do?” Chris fired back, making an angry growl back at her.“Since the day I decided to stand up for my…,”“Hey! Let's take it down a notch, will we?” Louis interrupted, shouting at both of them at the top of his voice. The furious look on Louis's face was enough to tell Chris he wasn't excited about the unwelcome b

    The woman twisted her lips, telling him she wasn't done revealing everything.“We've got three days before we see the results of who comes out on top in this round, but for now, I am certain that you will rank in last place. It's like I can already smell your eviction,” she addedShe seemed to enjoy telling Louis about his impending elimination from the college competition. Well, that was what Louis felt from her satisfied wicked grin.“Don't get too cocky. I haven't given up yet,”. Louis snarled at her “I'm not being the brute here, I'm just predicting through facts. Don't blame me, blame the system,”“What's the game about?” Louis asked“What is the point of asking about it when…”“When what? Don't be too certain about my downfall, I have a habit of surprising people” Louis cut her short“Surprise people? You are very far from a surprise, you should be praying for luck to be by your side again in this dump you placed yourself” “I don't need luck, I can do this myself. Tell me what

    “Say what you have to tell me; if you can't, then go away. I don't need your insincere compliments” Louis lashed out. He assumed she needed a favor from him, hence her sudden interest in him.The woman widened her eyes and placed her hands on her breast, astonished by his harsh tone towards her. She made a sad expression on her face and stared at Louis, acting like Louis attacked her for no reason.“You don't need to be rude to me, I didn't do anything bad to you, so why are you being mean to me?”Her question puzzled Louis, and he couldn't deny her talent for acting like she was the victim in this situation.“Don't start with me young lady, we both know you were acting all high and mighty a while ago, so don't act surprised that I returned the same energy,”“Oh, that!” she exclaimed, forcing out a smile on her lips. She realized it was pointless for her to keep faking like she was hurt, so she resorted to explaining, “We compete with ourselves; of course, I wasn't going to let anybod

    “I thought as much, Sir” Queen bowed her head as she spoke.She was pleased to see the satisfied look on Louis' face and her respectful gesture added more delight to the news.“It is up to you to select who you want to invest in your company,” she added.Her statement made him suddenly remember Chris' request to buy his company. “Did you check if any of the investors have a suspicious background?” Louis queried. He wanted to make sure this wasn't one of Chris' ploy to play a smart move on him.“I did a background check on all of them and there was nothing to get yourself alarmed over. They are all clean,” she replied.“Thank goodness. Even with the little company I entered with, I still can't shake them plotting against me so I got to be careful. I don't want my cover blown,”“I understand”Louis handed the work pad back to her with a grin on his face and ordered her to schedule a meeting with some of the best investors from the list. The company competition had brought some relevanc
