Meanwhile, Alec's phone would not stop ringing which made him more frustrated because he was starting to feel so much guilt for the pain he must have caused Debby instead. “So, would you like to receive the sum of a thousand dollars?” Alec asked. His employees looked at each other and gasped. Even their salary was not up to that and someone that only caused a scene was about to get that amount. However, in other for what happened to not be made known from the outside world especially those that were willing to buy the hotel before him, he thought of compensating everyone with a thousand dollars each but first, he needed to know what his customer had to say. “You really think that you can bribe me with a thousand dollars. What do you think I am? A glutton? I am in fact calling my lawyers. You have an improper approach towards customers and you need to be taught a lesson!” She said, hoping that she would see more. “Alright. Go ahead” Alec said while the employee gasped. She was
As soon as he had dropped her off, the thought of getting a new phone to befit his status filled him. Then, he thought of all the nicest things he had always wanted to get since he was young but could not including those times where he wanted to spoil Sophia. Then, Alec thought of the cellphone store he wanted to visit in the past where they had chased him away then alongside Sophia. Back then, he just received his salary and thought of spoiling himself just once even this Sophia already called him since she knew the time he always got his salary. He had muted the call that same day and decided that he would call her later in the day to let her know that something came up with the money. He knew that she would flare up but Alec wanted to fulfill his wishes even if it was just once. He heard his colleagues talking about the latest phone then which was an Iphone 15 and how they had used their salary as a collateral while they got the phone. He wanted to try that a
It was when she had talked that Alec knew that everyone would probably misunderstand the situation that he was in. Then, he became so embarrassed that he looked at everyone. No one had the looks of pity on thier face as they all looked at him with contempt. “This was what my security guard had done in the past whereas he owed a debt of about a thousand dollars and he wanted to use the best phone in the world. How outrageous” Someone had said. He had the sudden urge to call his ex-girlfriend in the presence of everyone to let her know her place and know that he was nothing but the breadwinner but Alec knew that none of that was actually necessary. No one would listen to him especially hearing the conversation between he and Sophia. “Get out of this place and try other places if you are not willing to be honest” The sales attendant had said harshly but how could he also go back to work, not feeling good but empty because he couldn't afford what others could? It then made him wond
Alec walked into the store but unlike then, everyone seemed too busy with a lot of orders and just like a flash, only few people remained. Alec looked around the stores for a while and saw that not much had changed since the last time he was driven out like a chicken waiting to be slaughtered. He then walked up to the sales attendants who seemed like they were processing a lot of payments. “Excuse me, would you like to show me where the first generation section is? I would like to get a good gadget to befit me" He said and stared at his phone. If he could remember correctly, that phone was nine years old. That was how poor he really was! First generation stores was not an easy place to shop and most customers preferred to come in the middle of the night and that was because most of these men loved to get women what they wanted because they wanted to have their way with them in the middle of the night and so, Alec was weird when he asked for the first generation store. At th
“Very good” Alec said. Everyone looked at Alec in anger. That was because only few people recognized him as the owner of the hotel and so, most people condemned Alec because who would dare to compete with the prince in terms of wealth and status? As petty as the game may seem, it was rumoured that the prince could also order that he should be beheaded since he wants to go against him. That was really crazy but Alec cared less. Once upon a time, he had no money and was easily intimidated but now, he had a whole lot of money that was too surplus and he was not sure that he could spend it all. After all, the more he completed a task, the more wealthy he was but these people were really too dumb to understand!“He is just so dumb” Someone whispered while the latter nodded her head. “I am sure that the money he claims to have definitely belongs to his boss or something because how would someone in their right senses want to compete with the prince?” He was really a super idiot!“He mu
“What? You just sent your money?” The prince muttered and looked at everyone who had taken a look to check what was going on. He realized that it would not make so much sense if he lost his face in the presence of the people he would later become their king but he was left with nothing left than five million dollars! He could also see people hailing the man already! This was really crazy! He suddenly began to have fears. What if this man actually won against him? He would definitely be doomed for because this would cause a scandal. He was sure that it had definitely gone more viral than he thought because he was quite an influencer""Let's put down five million dollars!” The prince said. Instantly, the comments section became so much filled up. “The prince should really put this man in his place. How can he call such a small amount? What if he has something like this?”“I think this man seems to have more money than the prince” Attackers started to criticize the person that just
“Are you guys really not going to help me? This is a friendship of over ten years! And I have always been there for you all! Is this how you want to repay me?” Prince Grey asked, feeling so furious. Whenever they needed his help, he would remember leaving his company like a man that had been hypnotized and help them. What about those times that he saved them from sleeping in a cell for over two days? He was there for them but what did he get in return? Insult? No help? This was really crazy and the fact that they did not even feel remorseful about it further pissed him off. How could they do this to him? “Sorry, prince. You are on this alone. How can a whole prince beg people like us for money?” One of his friends asked. “Exactly! Was that not what he said two days ago?”“And besides, what happened to your girlfriend you had placed over us? Why can't she help you this time around?” Someone asked again. How on earth was he supposed to place his friends above his girlfriend? Why d
"What? He borrowed a loan from the loan sharks in my name? A sum of twenty million dollars?” The king roared. “I am sorry to tell you that your son is not fit to be the king!” The king said again and looked at his bank account. Now, what remained was ways to punish him and the best way was to go look for him. “Just calm down. Besides, you know that people do not know your condition. It will not make so much sense if they find out about it just now. Please just stop it. Grey has done much more than harm to us than we did to him! It won't make sense if we add more to our family scandal” She said again. “Send guards to that location. I am freezing that money and sending it back to the owner because I did not borrow the money!”"But I also believe that this is the time that he needs our help the most and ..." With just a glare, the woman kept her mouth shut. "You have always been the one spoiling him since he was young. I'm not surprised with the kind of man he has already become"_
