Nathan's POVSusan was troubled as she turned to Piper, imploring with her eyes. Piper screamed in surprise and whirled around, her heels clanging as she left the room.It must have been embarrassing for her to take the walk of shame, but at the end, Susan had a business to carry out and she was standing in the way.Nathan turned to Susan and said, “Next time you come here, please keep that lady far away from me. Shall we begin…?” He muttered.Susan’s lawyer was alarmed, but the man recovered sufficiently to open his suitcase and hand the documentation over to Nathan’s lawyer. “The stipulations you requested have been added to the contract, as well as the changes,” the attorney said with a smile, trying to please him obviously.Nathan returned the smile with a forced smile of his and waited for his lawyer to confirm it. His lawyer nodded, and he smiled. “ It’s well written. We can put the percentage share since it wasn’t stated there…” he saidNathan frowned. It wouldn’t hurt to go ov
Scott’s POVScott opted to take Nate to school that morning because he hadn’t done so in a long time. Nathan had rushed off to work very early that morning, which worked to his advantage. He had observed that Nathan was overburdened with work and had even offered to shoulder some of the weight, but Nathan was not exhibiting weakness and it worried him. It was as if his brother had been reborn again, sprinting with a renewed vision and desire. If Nathan was working as one man before, now he was working as a one man army. Project 100 was going remarkably well, and Scott was impressed that Stephen was working day and night to ensure that the project was completed in the shortest amount of time possible.What had looked impossible now looked possible with the rate the work was going.It also surprised him because they were poaching clients who were exclusive dealers for Ross Construction and it was baffling how Elton Ross was being thrown one surprise every single say. It was as if Ste
Scott’s POV It took Scott less than an hour to beat the early morning traffic, drop Nate off at school, and get to work. It was soon after eight a.m. when he entered his office, already exhausted when the day had not even started.He had checked his schedule that morning and had mainly internally meetings with some departments. He was grateful that Helen had been considerate, considering the fact that she had filled his week with international calls from international clients. He was about to sit down on his chair when his door was busted open and Samuel stuttered inside his office with an angry look and a paper on his hand. Scott moaned. What the hell was wrong now? He pondered as Samuel slapped the paper on his desk. Scott grumbled, muttering profane words as he picked up the paper, reading its contents in seconds. He identified two keywords: Rivers Estates and court. He looked up, shocked, and stared at Samuel. Samuel huffed arrogantly, “I warned Nathaniel that they would come
Nathan’s POV He stormed into Myla’s office after exiting Scott’s office. Nathan was relieved he had left the office because he couldn’t trust himself not to do anything weird to Samuel.The guy was intentionally forcing his hand and making him angry by saying careless words. How could Samuel do such a thing? He thought. What was pissing him off the most was that Samuel was still acting like he did nothing wrong whereas he had stupidly sat down there, making a promise that had been recorded.He had to give it to Rivers Estates, those guys were smarter than they looked. Whoever had suggested recording the verbal agreement had seen into the future because what the fuck! Nathan walked by the receptionists and they both nodded at him. Before anybody could stop him, he pushed Myla’s door open to enter the room. “Did you watch the news? Fucking Rivers Estates is suing Hayes Holdings,” he shouted as he entered Myla’s office, staring at him sitting in front of the table; perched on it actu
Nathan’s POVIt surprised Nathan, so he looked to Myla for an explanation. But before he said anything else, Myla shook his head, laughing. “My father is Nathaniel’s godfather.”Nathan’s mouth widened in shock. This made a lot of sense. With the way the man touched and spoke to him like Nathaniel was his son. He was confident that the man had spoiled Nathaniel when he was younger. It showed in their brief interaction, even though this was the first time he was meeting the man.Myla cleared his throat, interrupting Nathan’s thoughts. He sighed and turned to Myla. He was in the guy’s office for a reason.“ You’re here…why?” Myla asked, a frown etched on his face.Nathan sighed, “ Rivers Estates is suing Hayes Holdings. Apparently, Samuel gave them a verbal agreement that was recorded and they are suing for breech if contract..” he explained.Myla blinked before he huffed angrily. He knew that Myla didn’t involve himself in anything that involved the running of the company, but now, the
Nathan’s POV“I don’t like the pants you’re putting on, Nate; go change them,” he said, looking up briefly to see the little kid who had entered the living room.They have been at it for almost twenty minutes and at this rate, he was getting annoyed. Nate had said that he didn’t need any maid helping him to dress, but Nathan was starting to doubt that decision. Maybe the boy actually needed help.Nathan’s gaze however remained locked on what he was reading on his iPad, and he didn’t bother checking to see if Nate had gone upstairs to change because he knew the youngster was still standing there.“You said that about the pants I wore two minutes ago.” Nate murmured.He rolled his eyes and glanced up at the child. “Exactly my point, Nate. I got you a new pants last week, so I would appreciate it if you put those on instead, rather than this one that looks like it was handed down to you by some charity cause…” he suggested, arching his brow when Nate moaned loudly, showing his displeasu
Nathan’s POV “You’ve got to be fucking kidding me!” He cursed, glancing at Jane, who had come up behind him in horror.She groaned and shook her head, grumbling under her breath as she bent down to pick up the garments off the floor. She acted like she was used to seeing this sights.Nathan watched in amazement, wondering what the hell had happened in the room. There was no possibility the room hadn’t been cleaned that morning, given that he had entered it only a few hours before.He gazed at Nate, who was holding a pair of black sneakers and looking at his feet. “ Why does it look like a volcano erupted in your room?!” He asked in bewilderment.Nate gazed up at him and boy his lower lip before lowering his head and staring at his feet.Nathan felt like shaking the kid until he opened his mouth to speak. He wanted to scold the boy, but Jane gave him a look that indicated she understood what was going on. He huffed angrily and closed his eyes, attempting to contain himself.The only
Nathan's POVNathan parked his car in front of the restaurant around an hour later after they had left home. He had driven Nate around town; which gave him time to think, so it had taken him a long time to get to the restaurant. The actual journey was supposed to have been less than thirty minutes.He sighed, unbuckling his seatbelt as he stared at the rear mirror. "We're here," he whispered to the boy, hopping out of the car. Nathan stepped over to Nate’s side and opened the door for the boy to step out.He made sure to show his displeasure over what had happened and that Nate saw his facial expression.Nate followed silently behind him as he entered the five-star restaurant. The area had cool background music playing to entertain the customers. they had a theme every week. looking around, he took note of the vibrant green and yellow color. Nathan smiled, loving the theme for that week.Nathan would have gone to any other restaurant, but this specific one didn’t have a policy agains
