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

They lapsed into silence after their whisper ushered in an awkward moment between them. Louis and Queen waited long for either of them to break the ice-cold silence till Louis hawked loudly and blinked profusely.“I’ll take my leave now; I better prepare your schedule for when next you show up,” Queen softly said, receding her steps to the door with a quirky grin on her face.“Okay, I probably have some things to go through before I leave,” he awkwardly repliedHe watched her scram out of his office before he looked at his watch and noticed he had not spent less than an hour in his office. So he decided to sit for a while and shuffle through some of the documents on his table for the important ones. Minutes in, he lost interest in his work and allowed himself to swim in his thoughts. He knew his questions would have been answered quickly if Mayor Sam was available, but his deteriorating health made it impossible; His ailment grew worse every day. Louis wished his questions about the

Louis missed all of Greg's calls, and there was no voicemail from him. He checked for how long and realized he had been asleep for nine hours. “Shit! It must have been so important for him to call me this much” Louis exclaimed.He dialed Greg's number back and waited for him to answer it. The first call was unanswered, so he tried for the second time and fortunately for both of them, they all had good news to relay.“Hello, Louis, good morning” Greg greeted through the phone.“Good morning, I saw your calls, sorry I couldn't return them early. I got carried away” Louis explained,“I figured out,” Greg said.“It must have been important, so what is it?” Louis asked, waiting for his reply. He could hear Greg inhale and exhale through the phone. His voice was almost out of breath, and he talked slowly like he was forcing out his words. He immediately stopped Greg from answering and changed his question.“Is everything okay? You don't sound well,” He inquired“Never been better!” Greg ex

The emotions on his face pointed out that he was not bluffing. A sorry look covered his face, turning his mood into a mournful regret. He broke eye contact with Louis, striking the table lightly with his shaky fingers.“What are you guilty of? Just when I was beginning to think you had a clean slate,” said Louis, keeping his voice down to a whisper. Greg's hesitation to talk irked Louis, as his sneer revealed it.“Before I thought of venturing into a production company, I was a friend of Owens and I usually helped him to bribe auditors for his tax payment. Things got sullen when I entered the same line of business and he threatened to expose and transfer all of his crime to me” Greg confessed, he bit his lips till he bled and licked it off “I thought it was a joke from my long time friend but I later realized he was serious and I was being blackmailed” Greg continued.He stopped for a second and scanned the room, turning suspiciously to all the corners, alarmed at the chattering of ot

“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
