"Call them, I'll get ready," Mr Cooper said as he left.*****ON HIS WAY TO THE CAR COMPANY."Father please, I hope this guy isn't trying to outbid us?" Mr Oliver grumbled."That's been on my mind since I got the text, I mean he can't be rich enough to buy three million dollar cars just to give them to us," Mr Cooper muttered."And what if he ends up getting us this car and then plants a bomb for us, we could explode on our way home, fuck! I can't trust Wayne, I know what he's capable of.""So what do you suggest, we turn back?" Mr Cooper asked. Mr Oliver took a long pause before saying."I think it's better if we don't turn back, we could have our men get in and out of the cars and make sure it's safe to drive," Mr Oliver said.In less than twenty minutes, they stopped at a large glass gate, their mouths agape in awe. It was the first time they had been there."Holy shit! A glass gate, I have never seen anything like it," Mr Oliver muttered. Within a second, huge men were walking tow
"Mother, no! Don't do this to me!" Amber screamed, but Mrs Laurette ignored her."Damn it!" Amber cursed, looking around for something."Where's my phone?" She grumbled.WAYNE.The lady who had taken care of Mr Cooper and his Mr Oliver was asked to go into Wayne's office.Wayne was working on his laptop when he heard a knock at the door."Come in," he said, his eyes still on his laptop.The door opened slowly and Theresa walked into Wayne's office."Good morning boss," she greeted."Good morning Theresa, how are you?" Wayne asked."I'm fine sir, how are you?" Theresa mumbled."I'm good too," Wayne smiled at Theresa, then the thought of his birthday party crossed his mind.The fact that she had disappeared just as the shooting began and the fact that every one of his emloyees who had witnessed and escaped the shooting had either sent Wayne a message or come to his office to check on him, or maybe that was why she was here."Mr Wayne please, I'm here to make a complaint," she said, mean
"With those fingers, I'm not sure you wouldn't be able to drive a car for a few months, so hang on, let the others try until it's your turn," Mr Oliver teased as Mr Cooper and Mrs Emilia laughed mockingly."That's not funny, you know I'm the reason he got us three cars, he wouldn't have got us any if he hadn't broken my finger, one of those babies is mine, while the other two were supposed to be for all of you," said Mr Nathan."And who the hell gives you the right to say that?" Mr Cooper asked."Look at my fingers, I'm literally in pain here," Mr Nathan grumbled."And what have your broken fingers got to do with the car Wayne gave us?" Mr Cooper asked."Um... Father," Mr Nathan grumbled."Will you shut up, have you forgotten you are not part of this family and you are no different to Wayne, remember you were nothing once and this family made you what you are, don't you forget that," Mr Cooper said angrily."I'm sorry sir, I'll go and get a bottle of water," Mr Nathan said as he got u
"Is there a problem?" My boss asked me."Sir, there is no problem, I think I left my bracelet here," I lied. He picked up some papers and searched his desk."I don't think your bracelet is here, why don't you check somewhere else, it must have fallen off while you were on your way here," my boss said, still searching around his desk."OK sir, I'll look for it on my way back, thank you sir," I said as I opened the door and walked out, I looked in the direction Theresa had been standing, I didn't see her again, I guess she must have gone back to her office."Bitch," I cursed under my breath.I walked back down to the reception and continued with my duties, dealing with rich and wealthy customers buying million dollar cars.I ended up working late because a customer was having difficulty making a transfer to the company's account."Sir, you can come back tomorrow morning and maybe you can make a simple transfer by then," I said to the old man."No, I have to get my wife this car, I want
"No, no, fucking stay away from me!" I screamed.*******THE NEXT MORNING: TALIA.Talia's Uber dropped her off at the front of the company. She paid the driver and got out of the cab. After the usual security checks, she entered the building, walked over to the counter, went to sign her name and the date of her return for the day, but Crystal wasn't there.She turned to Crystal's assistant, Elena, when Talia noticed she was crying."Is everything okay?" Talia asked, shaking her head and blowing her nose with a handkerchief."Can you share, you know, maybe I could help," Talia grinned, but it didn't seem to have any effect on Elena, and the moment Elena opened her mouth to speak, tears began to roll down her cheeks uncontrollably."H-haven't you heard? I thought you two were close," Elena muttered, using the handkerchief to wipe the tears from her eyes. Talia was confused, who was she talking about?"Who are you talking about," Talia said in a soft tone, not wanting to upset Elena."C
"What's wrong, why are you sitting on the floor? And why are you crying?" Talia looked up to see her boss, Wayne, standing in front of her."It's Crystal, the cashier who works here, I found out this morning that she was murdered," Crystal's assistant explained to Wayne."What?" Wayne was taken aback."She was in my office yesterday, I even saw her before I left, how come she's dead?" Wayne asked."Get up Talia, follow me to my office," Wayne started walking towards the lift."Now!" He said and Talia sluggishly stood up and was about to leave when the Crystal employee called her."Talia," Talia turned to her."You forgot your bag," she said, pointing to Talia's bag on the floor. Talia bent down to pick up her bag and then followed Wayne into his office.How could she not know what had happened to her cousin's sister? why was she the last to know? Who the hell did this to her? Why Crystal? Or was it those men who tried to kill Wayne at his party, had they been looking for her and then
"But..." Wayne hung up without letting her finish."I don't know why he's always such an asshole," Amber sighed.Within a few minutes, Amber's phone started ringing and she excitedly answered it, not even knowing who the caller was. Apparently she thought it was Wayne who had decided to call her back."Hello," she said with a broad smile on her lips, but her smile was suddenly replaced by a frown when she heard a woman's voice."Hello my little girl, how are you?" Amber glanced at her phone, it was her supposed mother, Aunt Matilda."I'm fine, hello," Amber mumbled."Are you sure you're all right? you don't sound all right,"" I'm fine, thank you," Amber said."OK, that's good to hear, how are you feeling now? I heard you got shot, that bastard had the guts to hurt my little girl," Aunt Matilda growled and Amber rolled her eyes."I'm fine, everything's fine, so let bygones be bygones," Amber said."Even after being shot, you want to forgive him so easily, don't tell me you're still th
"Darling, sorry I'm late, I got stuck in traffic," Mrs Laurette rushed into the room as she distracted Amber from finishing her explanation to Mr Cooper."You weren't gone too long, plus Grandfather was here to keep me company," Amber said."And I think my company is over, I'm going to the other room, it's almost like this hospital is my new home now," Mr Cooper said as he stood up and threw his empty tin into the bin before leaving the room."Father, please help me say hello to Mother," Mrs Laurette murmured."I can see you're out of your mind, if you refuse to come yourself, you don't tell me to help you." "I'm sorry, I'll come later in the day then," Mrs Laurette said."As you wish," Mr Cooper said as he walked away."What did he tell you?" Mrs Laurette asked."We were just talking about some important things.""Since when do you and your grandfather talk about important things, or stuff as you call it," Mrs Laurette said."Film me in the important stuff," Mrs Laurette said as the
