Nathan's POVNathan arrived at the office twenty minutes later. As he walked out of the elevator, it actually felt as if he was marching into his doom. He didn't know what reason he'd give Amber because he couldn't tell him that someone sent by Elton Ross had been tailing him since he left the office or probably since that day.That was so lame and unbelievable. Why would Elton Ross send someone after him? They would all wonder. The excuse wouldn't fly even though it was genuine. He was seriously dreading Amber's reaction.He knew Amber was soft and gentle but not when the guy was pissed off . He had seen Amber being pissed at some employees during their secretary meeting, so he knew the guy was not to be toiled with.He was on his way to his office when he noticed Amber standing outside, his head bowed to his phone as he typed furiously into it.If Amber was outside his office, does that mean that Dual investments was no longer around. Shit! Had Amber failed to stall and keep them u
Nathan's POVNathan needed to get Scott off his back for the time being, and if promising to meet Hayden would accomplish that, then he would go.He just needed to go to the station and talk to the man. Scott didn't need to know exactly what they had talked about. Nathan wasn't sure about how he felt with letting Hayden know what had truly happened. He still had that feeling not to trust anyone for now. He sighed.Scott arched his brow, as if he didn't believe Nathan would go to the station, but he reluctantly nodded his head. He knew this would not be the last time Scott would raise the issue.Knowing Scott, the guy would make sure Nathan kept his word."Okay," Scott said after a while."Now you can actually go home and rest. I'll handle your schedule for today and reschedule any meetings that can wait. The meeting with Dual investments, I'll brief you on that later." Scott murmured.Nathan was not going to argue with Scott about this. His body felt worn and exhausted, and all he wa
Nathan's POVHe raised an eyebrow at her, wondering what she intended to say.Jane cleared her throat, “ I can take him to the kid’s room to you know play there while I watch him so you both can talk…” she said.Nathan frowned. Did they have a kid's room in the Hayes mansion? He had a thought. Is that what the room before the game room was? He'd always wondered what the colored door besides the game room was for and since it was not being used, Nathan had not bothered to check, thinking that it was empty.However, this was the first time he had heard of having a kid's room, considering the fact that there were no kids in the house. Instead of asking Jane about the room, he nodded and looked at David.Keeping the child engaged while they talked was a smart idea. At the very least, David would pay attention to the discuss rather than try to keep his son from touching anything in the room as he had been doing since they arrived.Nathan also trusted Jane to take good care of the child l
Nathan's POVNathan was in a dark room, which was clearly illuminated by only one source of light: a bulb in the center of the room. he looked around, noticing how dark every other area in the room was, apart from where he was standing.The entire area was filled with shelves as tall as the ceiling, each containing a box of documents or files. It had to be a store room, he thought.He looked around, unsure of what he was actually doing in the room and how he had gotten there in the first place. Last he checked, He had gone to bed after his meeting with David Lakewood, the CEO of Solace Enterprises after waiting for Scott to get home.Nathan groaned, turning around to look for the entrance, but just the area he was standing in was illuminated, so he couldn't see where it was."how the fuck do I get out of here?" He thought.He patted his pocket in search of his phone, and when he found it, he took his phone out. He turned it on, frowning. At least it worked in the room, but Something w
Nathan's POVNathan frowned and squinted his eyes to read the list, but he couldn't see what was written on the paper. It was as if the paper was just a blank sheet and nothing was written on it." It's literally everyone in the company!" Nathaniel Hayes shouted. " Who the fuck isn't on the list Myla. This is almost everyone…" Myla sighed as he handed Nathaniel Hayes a flash disk that Nathan immediately recognized. This was it, he thought. It was the identical flash drive he had discovered that night, tucked beneath Nathaniel Hayes' table. He wondered how Nathaniel Hayes had gotten it and now, he was getting answers. What shocked him though was Myla's statement about everyone in the company being in the list. He was going investigate the list if he ever woke up from this moment, he Thought.Nathan quickly realized what had happened. If it was the same flash drive, he turned his head to look at the paper in Nathaniel Hayes' hand. The paper then had to include a list of those implic
Nathan's POVThe noises from outside Nathan's room, however, interrupted his stream of thinking and prevented him from continuing his search for his phone.He scowled as the yells became louder. Nathan pondered what the hell was going on in the as he climbed out of bed. He could distinguish at least three different voices. One belonged to Scott, while the other two were too noisy to distinguish.Nathan questioned why Scott was shouting at the top of his voice. Was he yelling at a staff or something?Nathan descended down the stairs, jumping two steps at a time to reach the source of the chaos. The more he got closer, the louder the voices were. The first person he saw was Jane, so obviously one of the voices belonged to her.This was the first time he had seen her yelling at the top of her lungs in the months she had lived at the Hayes mansion. She'd always been a calm and reserved woman, and even when he did things that irritated her, she never lost her cool.She was always patient
Nathan's POVNicholas narrowed his eyes at Nathan, saying, "Last I checked. You did this out of jealousy towards Rivers Estates...Samuel had the deal under control. But you simply had to let your ego get involved..." Nicholas accused.Ego? What the hell did ego have to do with breaking the deal? It was a poor transaction from the start, and he blamed Samuel for failing to notice it. "Well, the last time I checked, I was the CEO and President of Hayes Holdings, not Samuel. I make the final decision, not Samuel or Scott! So the next time you intend to confront Scott, perhaps you should do your homework on who runs the show, asshole!" Nathan gritted between his teeth.Nicholas smirked, and Nathan did all in his power not to Punch the man's face in order to take that smirk away. If self control was a person, he was that person." It still does not change the fact that you broke a deal with us! A deal that was already in motion before you came in. I’ll make sure that the whole country kno
Elton Ross' POV "He's on to us, sir," Dane mumbled hurriedly the moment Elton got to where the man was standing.Elton scowled, unable to comprehend what Dane was saying, the man had better speak clearly or he would walk away: "What do you mean, he's into us? Who is on to us?" He asked, arching a brow.Dane pulled his fingers through his hair, looking increasingly irritated and scared. Elton couldn't remember the last time he'd seen Dane like this, especially without his shadow, Jackson, following him.Dane was always well coordinated and could control his emotions well. The man made sure that he didn't wear his emotions on his sleeve and it was difficult to discern what Dane was feeling at any given time.Seeing Dane looking scared, made him frown in worry.Dane sighed, "Nathaniel Hayes. He is fucking on to us...I knew we shouldn't have messed with him," Dane remarked through tight teeth.What? Nathaniel was on to them? He had no means of knowing about their plans. Elton had merely
