“Ava,” he muttered with a surprise look on his face. The lady looked up and stared at him with the same expression on her face. Ava was one of the Rodriquez family members. She was among those who looked down at him and belittled him. She didn't have the chance to spite him because she got a multi-million dollar deal in Italy. After many many months, Smith was surprised to see her again. His expression changed after he remembered what she had done to him back then. She would spill a drink on the floor and make him clean the stain despite having numerous maids in the mansion. No one cared about his feelings and emotions except his wife who ended up leaving him for another man because of money. Now, he has had more than enough in his account. Even Rodriquez's generational wealth couldn't come close to his wealth. “Who said you can call my name, huh? You blind man,” she said in a cold tone and he smiled. He maintained a calm demeanor which surprised her. “I'm not blind. You're
During his research, he found out that his father had the biggest share of the company which means he could make commands as he wanted. “I'll make sure you and your family regret looking down on me,” he said in a cold tone and clenched his fist tightly.“Hello.” He spoke into the phone after calling Micheal, who picked up the call without hesitation. “Hello, Sir. How may I help you, Young Master?”“Are you aware of any partnership that my father has with any company in Italy?” He asked in a cold tone. “Yeah. Although I'm not aware of the companies he has partnerships with because they're many, I can tell he has bigger shares in each of the companies,” Micheal said and he arched his eyebrows. “What's wrong, young master,” Micheal asked in a concerned tone after the awkward silence. He snapped out of his thoughts and looked up with a confused look on his face. How could his father be involved in so many businesses? No wonder he was able to gather such assets. “Nothing, I'm fine.
“Hello, Sir?” The manager spoke into the phone after the third ring. “Good morning, Mr. Einstein,” he greeted in a calm tone. “Who are you? How may I help you, Mr. Man?” He asked. “I'm Smith Edward and I want you to take out someone for me,” he said. “Edward? Like the powerful Emperor Edward?” The man demanded and he smirked. “It seems you're smart and well-informed,” he said and smiled. “Why wouldn't I be, Sir? The Emperor has the biggest share in my company. He's my benefactor,” the man said and he nodded his head. “I'm glad you know,” he said and stroked his chin gently. He was glad to hear from the manager that his father had the largest share in his company. It would make things easier for him to ruin Ava's reputation and career. “I'm sure you know who I am,” he said. “Yes. You're probably his son or his relatives,” the man said respectfully and he smirked. “You're indeed a smart person so I'll be straightforward,” he said. “But how may I help you, sir?” the man asked
“No. This is not possible!” She yelled out with disbelief and staggered backward. She missed her step and crashed hard on the floor. She whined in pain and crawled toward her phone. “I’m the star of the company. Aren't I? He can't fire me like that, right?” She asked herself but she couldn't get an answer to it.She swallowed hard as another letter entered her mail. It was from her boss who sent a receipt of a compensation fund that he sent to her. “Compensation?” She asked and scoffed.She grabbed her phone from the floor and walked out of her hotel room with an angry look on her face.She ruffled her hair with a frustrated look on her face as she tried hard to remember the person that she offended who could be so powerful to make her boss fire her without prior notice. Who is he? She barely had issues with anyone in Italy because she was trying to protect her reputation. She wouldn't want anyone to taint the career she had been building badly. The only person she offended recen
“What!” she gasped out in shock and flinched back in fear after hearing the manager's statement. “Who is that person if I may ask? What can I do to appeal to that person?” She asked and he scoffed.“That's not enough. You should stay away from me,” he said in a cold tone and she swallowed hard. “Please don't do this to me. I knew I shouldn't have offended that person but please forgive me, Sir,” she said and he shook his head with a sigh. “It seems you don't get what I'm trying to say. What I'm trying to tell you is that the person won't let me employ you into this company unless you kneel and apologize to him,” he said and she swallowed. She ruffled her hair with a frustrated look on her face, unable to remember that she had offended. “But I can't remember the person that I offended,” she complained and he scoffed. “That's your problem to sort. I had told you times without numbers that you shouldn't look down on anyone even if you're a celebrity,” he said and she shook her head
“What did you just say?” She asked and for whatever reason, the drunkenness flew out of her system the moment she heard his last statement. “I didn't say anything. Maybe you misheard me, right” he asked and chuckled mockingly. Her face turned red as she turned to him with an angry look on her face. “No, I didn't misheard you. You claimed that I haven't learned my lesson. What did you do to me?” She asked in a cold tone and he scoffed. “It seems you heard me. It's a good thing that you aren't deaf after all.”“It doesn't matter anymore whether you learned your lesson or not, but I'm certain you'll live to regret your action,” he said in a cold tone and crossed his arms under his broad chest. “How dare you threaten me…” she trembled in anger as she pointed at him. She hiccupped and staggered almost losing her balance but he came on time and helped her before she could fall. “I thought I told you never to touch me,” she cursed at him and pushed his hand away from her chest. “Is th
“What!” She gasped out in shock after hearing the shocking revelation. She couldn't believe her ears when she heard from her grandma that Smith wasn't the same person he used to be. She even claimed that he had become more powerful and mysterious. As much as she didn't want to believe her grandmother, she knew that it was true. She couldn't deny the change she noticed in him. He had grown taller and broader. He looks neat and healthy compared to the time he was living in their house more like a slave. He had even become bolder and colder so that weak-minded people could get intimidated by him.She knew her grandma wasn't a fan of exaggerating things. She meant it when she said Smith wasn't the person he used to be. She had better be careful of him then. “How could he become so powerful in such a short time?” She asked with a confused look on her face and Madam Kate scoffed. “Can't you get it? It seems he's related to Edward's family in one way or the other.”“I heard one of the
“I bet that's the reason why you're begging me, right?” he asked and she shook her head vehemently. “What did I expect from you? I made a mistake thinking you'll be truthful for once,” he said and she smiled nervously. “I'm not lying. Why should I?” She asked and he smiled. “A good question you should ask yourself and not me. You should know the reason why you're lying, right? Shouldn't you?” He asked and she looked away. He knew she was hiding something but he couldn't tell what it was. So to find out, he had to play alone and pretend he was on her side. “I thought I'd told you earlier. I'm begging you because I feel guilty for what I did to you in the past. Please give me a chance to make up for it,” she demanded and he scoffed. “Do you think you can make up for it?” He asked and she nodded her head quickly. “Yes, I believe. Although I know it might take time for you to forgive me, I'll be patient,” she said and he smirked discreetly. “So what do you want me to do for you?”
