"Yes, Master Blake. Janet is briefing the rest of the board members on the plan. Everything is going smoothly","And George?" Jonah suddenly asked"The old man?" "He doesn't have a clue of what he's about to do","What about him? What do you want to do? Should we kick him out?" Jerry asked gesturing towards Vic. Right at this moment, a waiter approached and poured another shot into Jonah's cup"Vic Francis" Jonah said with a trace of disdain in his voice"That bastard is up to something, so don't kick him out yet" Right at this moment, Jonah's phone beeped, he quickly retrieved the phone to see a text from Henry"We're in position Master Blake, let us know if there are any signs of trouble" Right at this moment, Jerry tugged Jonah gently and gestured for him to look at the stage At this moment, Janet was slowly and elegantly making her way up to the stage with the spotlight shining and illuminating her debonair lookShe looked around in astonishment and a dazzling gaze, before stan
"I will," George said with much enthusiasm. Upon hearing his reply, Jonah smiled mischievously, but right at that moment, he noticed a man in a beige suit and slick hair staring in his direction from across the roomHe didn't look like one of the rich snobs at this launch. This man had a sinister aura about him. One Jonah was quite familiar with. This was not just an ordinary bodyguard, this was a marksman Having noticed the man, Jonah composed himself, quickly assuming that this could have been one of the people looking for him. This meant only one thing, the man he was looking for could not be far away from here. Very possibly, he was in this room with themAfter a short while, Jonah got up and excused himself. In his mind, he knew that if this was one of the people after him, the mysterious man would signal his thug to follow behind him quicklyAt this time, Morraine shifted her gaze and saw Jonah, but did not pay much attention to him. She assumed the deep wrinkled frowns on his
Jonah stood up as everyone gaped in disbelief. In an instant, the entire hall focused their gazes on him"Damn you! Stop embarrassing yourself and disrupting the atmosphere of this place! Sit the f*ck down!" Vic blurted angrily and stood upHe had enough of this bastard always trying to steal the limelight. Didn't he look at where he was now?! None of the fearsome bosses dared to stand up at a moment like this, but this loser had the audacity to try and steal the limelight now, knowing fully well he couldn't have been the president of GrindelThe thought was aggravating At this time, most of the people exchanged glances, puzzled "D*mn could he really be the President of Grindel Enterprise?" A man dressed in a grey tuxedo asked his friendImmediately after that, they shook their head earnestly"No, there's no way. If he were really the president, that man wouldn't dare to scold him now, would he?","We all know who he is, and why he's bitter towards the man. Poor Vic, he thought it
"Mr. George, this is the start of something remarkable for you" Jerry reassured"So enjoy the rest of your evening, ladies and gentlemen. Thank you for having us and welcoming us to your city" Jerry said and stepped down in a hurrySome people were stunned and bewildered by the plot twist. At the end of the day, they did not still find out who really was the President of the company. They groaned in frustration, but no one wanted to say anything. Vic was still horrified and hence immediately got up and followed Jerry. At this point, he could not ignore the questions he had anymore. He had to find out for himself what was going on. If Jonah was really the president, then it would mess up everything he planned. "Hey VP!" He called Jerry, going after him in a hurry, "Can I have a moment of your time?", Vic asked Jerry shot him a wry smile and tapped his wristwatch, "I would love to have a conversation with you sir, but I have to catch up to someone right now. Let's do this later", he
"Why are you looking for me?" Jonah shouted back, and at this time Henry Boyd and the youngsters emerged through the stairs, hurrying towards the helicopter with their guns drawn out"No! Don't shoot!" Jonah shouted in panicHenry was confused, but he swiftly ordered his youngsters to stop. Don Petro was not someone he wanted trouble with and if his young master had decided that there was no need to fight the man, he was not going to risk it either"Good call Mr Blake, maybe you're different than what I thought afterall" Don Petro said as the chopper flew away"What just happened?" Henry Boyd asked with a puzzled look on his face, quickly approaching Jonah"I thought you wanted him captured, why did you let him go?", he continued, looking at Jonah in confusionJonah turned towards him and said persuasively "You were right" he uttered flatly"What do you mean?", Henry asked, gesturing to his youngsters to scan and secure the roof"He doesn't want to kill me. He had a clear shot from th
"Ms Smith, can you come up to the stage please?", Vic's voice resonated across the hallAva was equally confused when Vic called her to the stage. She turned to look at Jonah and his face was still inexpressive. On the other hand, the crowd stared at her with curiosity and bewilderment"Don't leave him hanging up there and embarrass us" Morraine chided with a frown on her foreheadAt this point, Ava felt divided. Recalling what Vic had said earlier when she met him outside, she started to feel a little odd about his behavior. He seemed to have suddenly changed since they arrived at this event.There were a lot of things that he said that did not add up, and she guessed it all was because of Jonah.However, she could not disobey her mother and against her better judgment, Ava slowly strode to the stage, ignoring the curious glances from the crowd, and stood in front of Vic, wearing a sheepish smileVic lifted the microphone again and started "Thank you, Ms Smith. I know crowded spaces
Keenan's appeal for a revisit to the Francis collaboration was a mere attempt to get Jonah's attentionThe Ferr family was known for owning the biggest Freight business in the city and as a result of this, they formed a deep partnership with major businesses and enterprises in the country A few years after Jonah's parents had disappeared, their absence sent a shockwave through the company's stocks and in a few minutes Grindel Capital stocks started plummeting due to lack of proper management. In about a week, 20 billion was swept out of the Grindel Account and some shareholders started pulling their shares from the company However, there was one man who saw this as a diamond in the rough, Kienan FerrWhen Kienan learned of Donald Blake's disappearance, he found that this was the perfect time to invest in Grindel Enterprise, Kienan jumped on the opportunity and bought about 20 percent of shares from the shareholders that pulled out and as he had expected, when Grindel Enterprise sh
Sasha Ferr was assigned an important mission to Grindel Enterprise this time. From the obvious perspective, she was here for the new job at the company, but she had a much larger hidden agenda from her family.Her father Keenan had informed her that according to top secret information, the Blake family which was the wealthiest and most powerful family in the entire country had found their heir who had been missing for years after his parent's disappearance. That also, he had returned to Grindel Enterprise and was working as the President of the company to sharpen his entrepreneurial skillsIn Eldredge City which was filled with many prominent and powerful families, although the Ferr were on the upper level of the peak of that social pyramid, they were still ranked as the second family in the city. The Blake family was much more powerful and famous than they wereNow that it had come to Keenan's notice that the young master of the Blake family had returned to the company, and even bett
