By the time he got home, it was late in the evening. And as expected, Meq Carlos was never around. He took a shower and did the honour of taking care of the baby. Inasmuch as he wanted to ignore the child, Dice didn't have anything to do with his problems. He just had the worst luck, being born to a mother like Meq.Just as he was about to get his good-evening-sleep and recover from the shock he received today, a loud roar stopped him."FELIX!!!" Sigh... Oh, damn. It was none other than Kate, his so-called mother-in-law. He walked into the living, and met Kate painting her nails. Typical Kate Carlos."You called for me, ma," Felix said in a casual tone, his hands tucked into his pockets.Kate looked up and saw his behavior. Their eyes met but Felix kept staring into her eyes. There was something different from Felix today. Before, he couldn't even stand in front of her without looking down but now, he was looking directly into her eyes which he was afraid of doing for a very long
The next day, Felix watched as his so-called mother-in-law prepared to go to the grocery store while Meq was almost done preparing for work , just having her breakfast. He was almost done with getting ready for work as he was preparing breakfast for Dice in the kitchen, Kate began to yell out his name." Felix, you bastard!" Kate yelled his name again and felix rushed to the living room.There, he saw Kate was sitting on the couch with Dice. "Good morning ma" he greeted and turned to the Meq "good morning great wife." She ignored him like she didn't hear a thing then ordered, "go get me my bag from my room." He nodded and went to bring it for her."Gosh, he irritates me like damn" Meq said seeing him going to bring her bag He came back and handed the bag over to her "Hope you didn't steal anything from my bag because what's in there cost more than your miserable life" . Felix sighed and ignored her then turned back to Face Kate."Mummy I will be off to work, dear l
Felix opened the door to the CEO office and met Kimber Kim. Kimber Kim was on the couch with a laptop on his laps and it seemed like he was just surfing the net. As soon as he saw Felix's face, Kimber Kim's face brightened up as he dropped the laptop on the couch and stood up. "Hey Felix, how is my boy doing?" The old man beamed. "Am good dad," Felix smiled. Kimber Kim signalled him to sit beside him on the couch and he did so. After settling down, Kimber Kim thoughtfully asked, "So which department are you going to work in?" " Just want to intern in the finance department of the company." "That will be better, you need to stay undercover to avoid taking unnecessary risks." " Yeah, dad. So, I will officially begin it today?" Felix asked. " Yes son. But... Be careful Felix," Kimber Kim said, caring like a father. Felix smiled seeing the look in his eyes. "I got that dad. So, I will get going." Kimber Kim nodded. Felix left his office and went to the accounting department.H
Kimber Kim brought out the documents inside the bag and flipped through the pages. Lo and behold it was the company's confidential files. It included most of the important details of transactions between them and other companies, and some more... "My oh my! Mr Fred Meyer!" Kimber Kim exclaimed. Fred was about to run when the guards held him and pushed him down to Kimber Kim's feet."Trying to outsmart me?" * Felix already knew that his suspicions were right. "Let's get him thrown out and forbidden from stepping into this company ever again." Felix communicated with Kimber Kim through the airpod in their ears.Kimber Kim turned to Fred and instantly hit him on his face and grabbed him tightly by his hair. "You bloody thief! You have the guts to steal such important documents and dare to fool me? You are leaving this company now!" Kimber Kim's cold words made Fred burst into tears as he held his legs and began pleading.* Felix stood in the corner and smirked. "I never knew my w
"What a pleasant surprise! I never knew you it'll be you again... Fred." Fred, the one in black, was extremely stupefied on seeing Felix. On the other hand, Kimber Kim's lips curved upwards a bit. 'Such a grand entrance! Keep it up boy!' It took Fred a minute to process the whole situation before he began laughing again."How can a houseboy from nowhere claim that he is the heir to a powerful empire? What the heck is wrong with this motherfucker?"Felix scoffed. Walking towards them, he said, "You don't seem to believe me... Mr Fred Meyer?""Are you crazy? Who will believe a dummy like you who can't take proper care of his wife? Or.. oh... Let's say she is the one taking care of you! Of course you are a bastard with no future. Who knows, maybe you drank a lot of cheap alcohol today!" Kimber Kim was no longer calm again. Who did this idiot think he was to degrade his heir?!Immediately, he flared up, roaring, "how dare you talk to my own son that way?! Do you have a death w
Fred scurried off the building with his guards, leaving only Kim and Felix in the uncompleted building."Felix!" Kimber Kim started. "I knew you wouldn't disappoint me! My son!" He smiled happily as he patted Felix's hair. "Though I expected you to be good at fighting, I never knew you'd be that good!" Felix walked up to him."Am a little bit good at it, I just don't show it out and besides, there haven't been any reason for me to fistfight," Felix said.Kimber Kim nodded and put his hands on Felix shoulder."Felix, with the way things are going, I think it's almost time to show the whole world that my son is alive. My true heir is alive." Kimber Kim said in a half-worried tone."The company's anniversary is around the corner. Soon, I will be announcing you as the heir to Kim's empire, but for now, you just have to remain undercover." Felix understood what he said but was still overwhelmed at the thought. How would it be like on that day? "I will dad" Felix said and bowed
After finishing the piles of work dumped at his desk, Felix stood up to see his dad at his office. He noticed he was visiting his dad too often and becoming too close to him. What could he do? He was just too glad he now had someone to call a family member.He strode into the CEO'S office and met his father working tirelessly but as soon as he saw Felix, his mood lightened."Dad? I hope I'm not interrupting anything?" Felix asked, sitting down."No son, there's nothing much to do here. Hey, is everything alright?" Kimber Kim asked, noticing his not-so-cool mood."There is a lady here called Monica Shaw, right?" Felix began. He already did his check on her."Mmm... Monica Shaw..." Kimber Kim said, tapping his jaw while thinking. "Well if I am not mistaken she should be the head of the sales department... Yeah."Felix scoffed. "I don't think she is of use to this company anymore.""You want her sacked? Did she offend you?" Kimber Kim asked in concern. "A lot! I don't even wan
He couldn't believe he actually fell in love with someone like her. She was still supporting her lover in his face! Well he wouldn't begin his revenge on her just yet. It'd be slow and hurtful. For now, he wanted to see how his first target was faring....In the sales department."WHAT!!!"Monica was shocked beyond measures after seeing the sack letter on her desk.Hell no! What was this all about? Out of the blues?!She couldn't remember doing anything to warrant such a sudden dismissal.Sweat all over her face, she read through the letter again. After the whole formal speech, one sentence at the end caught her eyes.'indolent workers aren't needed in the company' That line... Why was it so familiar? Where had she heard it from?Oh! Felix! Suddenly his words rang in her head. "Just remember this, indolent workers aren't needed in the company"A thought flashed into her head but she quickly dumped the idea. What was she even thinking? There was no way in the world Felix could be
