“God knows who he wants out of his sight, but I would have been out of life on the verge of getting answers,” the man continued, keeping to the shadows where the light failed to reflect, and his body camouflaged with the environment.“Are those the only things you could find before the… you know” Louis stuttered and pointed to his right arm.“Yeah, that's all, before my scar,”It took a minute for Louis to say anything but it was clear as day that his mind had processed a thousand words already.“Thanks for sharing it. I know it took courage for you to come out and see me despite all that happened to you” Louis said after a calculated pauseThe man laughed creakily and replied, “Actually, when I got your call, I thought it was Zick trying to complete his mission. I was perplexed at how he found out I was still alive” “But your story on finding more dirt on the Harts convinced me otherwise” he added.“I guess I'll have to look for another investigator. This time I hope it's not as com

“Damnit! How did I lose my guard so easily”Louis exclaimed, turning his pockets inside out in a hurried move as he went back to his chair to check under the table, hoping that it may have fallen out, but the empty state of the chair foiled his expectations. He hissed loudly and grabbed his phone with an affirming grip. The watch was his favorite, a limited edition costing millions of dollars. Losing it made him feel frustrated because it was the last one of the twenty-five sets made in the world.“It must have been that darn old man”He couldn't believe how the bearded man was able to take it without his attention. “I thought he just offering genuine help but somehow the wanker stole my frickin' watch” The regret of trusting a stranger to get close to him was obvious on his face, causing him to walk out and mumble complaints. When he got outside, he quietly looked around, wishing he would catch the man in any of the alleyways, but they looked too dark and dangerous for him. A thou

“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

“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

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

“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

“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

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

“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
