"It's here," he said confidently. Lucas couldn't help but wonder what was happening to him, why was he so confident and sharp?
He used to be the person they bullied so effectively when he worked at the hotel. Lucas clenched his fists, wanting to slap him, but Mason's disturbing smile made him hesitate, he didn't know why but it scared him.
Mason enjoyed seeing Lucas shocked by his new attitude. He was no longer scared, and he planned to keep confusing them like this.
He tossed his bank card onto the table, causing Lucas to furrow his brow.
"How dare you, you pauper!" Lucas yelled, expecting Mason to flinch. However, Mason remained unfazed and responded, "Please call the cashier so I can make the transfer, or send me your account number so I can use my phone. I have things to do."
An awkward silence hung between them. Lucas reluctantly stretched his hand and placed his card on the table. Mason swiftly took it and began typing his account number, for the money transfer.
"Let's see just how delusional you are," Lucas mocked.
"Before you say anything, check your damn phone," Mason retorted.
Just as Lucas was about to strike him, his phone buzzed softly. He furrowed his brow and checked the message that had been sent to him. And to his surprise, he saw that Mason had transferred ten thousand dollars into his account.
Lucas stared at Mason, who sat comfortably in his seat, a smile playing on his lips. He couldn't help but wonder how Mason had come into possession of such a huge amount of money.
No way would happen because he once begged for four months to be able to pay the money but it's remaining two months now, of course it wasn't possible.
"I suppose I've settled my debt. You can use the remaining amount for your expenses," Mason remarked, rising from his seat and preparing to leave. However, Lucas interrupted him.
"Just because someone handed you a large sum of money and you took out a loan from the bank doesn't give you the right to speak to me in that manner. And please, refrain from boasting because it's fucking ridiculous to brag about borrowed money," Lucas retorted because of how well he knew him.
Anger welled up within Mason as he tightly clenched his fists while making his way out of the office. He couldn't help but wonder why he was so dumb or a thing dumb. How could he have been blind to the fact that he was a rich man? How could he have borrowed ten thousand dollars when he didn't even have a stable job?
Not even him but including everyone else.
As he walked to the main restaurant area, he heard the receptionist calling him to stop, Mason walked out and didn't respond to her, not that he didn't hear her but he didn't have time for her nonsense, he knew all what she was going to say.
"This foolish boy has completely changed! How dare he ignore me like that?" the receptionist seethed in anger as she watched him leave the restaurant.
She would be happy to throw a leftover meal on him but she was stopped by Lucas, now she has lots of questions for him, he had never walked out on her before, so it was weird and annoying.
As he walked, the gatekeeper laughed mockingly at him, but he paid no attention. Instead, he smirked, unaffected by the taunts, and continued his way out of the restaurant.
Suddenly, his phone began to ring, indicating an incoming call from Andrew. He swiftly answered it.
"Son, there's something I'm deeply concerned about," Andrew said, his voice filled with worry.
"And what is it, Dad?" Mason inquired, curious about his father's concern.
"You bloody well need a car for your safety. I assume you know how to drive, right?" Andrew asked, and Mason nodded.
"Of course, Dad."
"Good. I've gone ahead and bought one for you. It's on its way, so head to the dealership. It's already there, waiting for you," Andrew muttered, shaking his head in disbelief.
"I'm amazed at how quickly you think," Mason remarked.
"Life has shaped me this way, son. We always need to be quick on our feet. By the way, I'll be coming to the dealership with the new owner of the company, the person who is posing as me and purchased it, alright?" Andrew explained. Mason nodded in understanding and ended the call.
As Mason arrived at the company, he strolled through the premises and his eyes widened at the sight of a sleek black Bugatti Veyron. A group of men had gathered around the cars, and he knew that one of them must be his contact. With a smile on his face, he approached the group.
"You were asked to bring it for me, right?" Mason inquired, directing his question to the man wearing glasses. The man quickly glanced down at his feet, avoiding eye contact, and pretended as if Mason wasn't talking to him.
Mason felt puzzled, unsure if this car truly belonged to him.
"Um, excuse me, but wasn't this car sent by someone else?" Mason asked, seeking clarification to be sure it was him or not.
In a cold and unfriendly tone, the man responded, "Mind your own business and leave. This car doesn't concern you, if you knew you owned this car then you wouldn't have shown your face in this area, just get away." Mason couldn't understand what was happening, and his confusion grew.
Just as Mason was about to reach for his phone to resolve the situation, he hesitated first then decided not to make a phone call, putting his phone back in his pocket.
"You were supposed to deliver this car to Andrew's son, correct?" Mason inquired, trying to clarify the situation.
"And how do you know that? Are you his friend? I find it hard to believe he would befriend someone like you," the man replied, Mason let out a sigh, realizing that this was becoming more complicated.
He decided to call Andrew, quickly dialing his number and waiting for him to answer.
"Have you received it?" Andrew asked.
"I'm just as confused. Isn't it a black Bugatti Veyron? Because that's exactly what I'm seeing here," Mason responded.
The man scoffed looking at him as he straightened his face.
"Yes of course, then surrounded by my men, the one who will give you your car keys is the one putting on a glass and a black airpod, and I hope no problem son"
Mason looked at him as he smirked. "Thanks for your response, because I'm wondering why he was adamant not to give me the keys, doesn't he recognize me?"
Andrew frowned his face. "Give him the phone"
Mason returned his gaze at him. "Hey, take this"
He rolled his eyes and faced his front.
Mason was overwhelmed with how serious he, is with his Job. he didn't have any choice than to go closer to him.
"Get...."
"You bastard" the man on the glass heard it as he froze immediately and collected the phone from him.
"Mr. Andrew it's you sir"
"At least you recognize me, but not my son, thank goodness I'm in a good mood today or I would have fired you for the amount of disrespect you gave him! "
This made him both confused and surprised at the same time as he gazed at Mason, that's when he saw the resemblance in him.
"I'm...I'm deeply sorry sir, I never knew it was the young master"
"Oh you expected someone dressed in an expensive suit..."
"No, I mean..."
"Give him the keys, now" he ordered with a strict voice.
The yell made shivers run down his spine as he thrust his hands into his pocket and brought out the keys, then quickly handed them over to him.
Mason smiled as he looked at the Bugatti Veyron and rubbed his hands on the surface.
"Young master, please forgive me for I know not that it was you"
Mason ignored him, admiring the black car parked in front. "Get out of my face!" Mason ordered, bowing his head as he placed the key on top of the car. He and the guards then left. Mason's phone began ringing, and he picked it up. By then, he had already entered the building, looking around in case he saw him. "Hello, Mason. I hope there's no problem," he asked as Mason shook his head. "Where are you, Dad?" "I'm sorry, son, but he is busy for now. You see, he is a nice person, so I understood him and let him be. Maybe some other time, okay?" "Yes, Andrew." He ended the call with a sigh, got into the car, and inserted the key. Suddenly, the sound of the engine made him flinch. "Wow," he exclaimed as he began driving the car out of the car company. When he reached the Hins company to begin his work, he parked his car in the garage and entered the company. He entered his department and saw that everyone was already there. There were five of them—two men and three women. It appeare
“You must be a joker to think that I borrowed a car to please someone like you.”- he chuckled out loud with his keys dangling before her eyes.Anna cleaned off her eyes thinking that it was a dream and pinched her skin so tight to wake up from her dream but it wasn’t a dream at all.“Mason, You and I know that you can’t afford a three square meal not to even talk about buying a car worth millions. Please, I would advise you to wake up from that imaginary life playing right in your head and face reality. Go and return the car to the owner and stop deceiving everyone that you’ve made it loser.”- she scoffed out loud as she disdainfully eyed him.Mason felt so bad about Anna finding it very hard to believe that he had already made it but he didn’t let her words get to him. He adjusted his shirt and braced himself while he went further to lock his car.“I don’t care what you think about me or how you view me. You can believe whatever you want to believe and whoever you want to believe it
“You heard what she said, baby boy. Do you want to also beat her as well? Sometimes, I wonder how you were able to get the opportunity to work as an intern here. It doesn’t fit you in at all and to be very honest you stink.”- her words kept coming out of her mouth like venom. Mason's eyes turned so red to the extent that his veins were so tight and evident on his skin when his fist clenched together in anger. He wanted to raise his hands and give her a resounding slap but he just had to hold himself from beating her up because he wasn’t raised like that.“Have you suddenly gone deaf and dumb all of a sudden? I thought you were bragging about beating her up not quite long so what suddenly happened? You’ve lost your balls, right?’- Precious words strike like a chord at the back of his brain.“Precious, save your saliva for something worthwhile and not on someone that stinks like a pig who can’t even stand the test of time. If Mason is being placed between a pig and they ask me to choos
“Hold on for a second. Are you asking me this question because of what that good-for-nothing boy said about me? Are you?”- Louisa questioned her while turning around to look at her.“Answer the fucking question, Louisa. I want you to be honest with me right now so that I can know where I stand in your life and know if you truly value me as a friend.”- precious voice was heard shaking from the way she threw the question at her not minding that she was in the office.Louisa walked up to her, placing her hands on her chin to comfort her a little, “Please we can talk about this in the restroom where no one would hear what we are about to discuss and not the other way round besides this is our working hour.”Precious aggressively pulled off her hands away from her chin with anger in her eyes, “Do you think I care about the fact that we are in the office? From the way, I’m talking to you do you think I’m happy about the fact that everyone thinks I’m your slave and not your friend just becau
He lowered his voice at her, “Are you crazy? What the hell is wrong with you Anna? Why can’t you allow me to live my life without you being there at all?”-his eyes focused more on her eyes from the way she spoke.She laughed at him not minding the eyes of the staff who focused on them, “I won’t let you rest nor give you a breathing space as long as you continue to deceive these people around you claiming that you are rich.”He glanced at his fellow intern and co-workers who paid rapt attention to him and Anna’s discussion.“Anna, I’ve moved on with my life and I also want you to move on with yours and stop following me as a tse tse fly. Fine, you said that I’m a liar and a deceiver, right?”- he lowered his voice and asked her.“Yes! Not only that you forgot to add that you are a poor Janitor and a stinky ass hole.”- her eyes rolled in corners looking at him with disgust and hatred.“I accept everything you’ve said now can you leave me alone and get back to work or don’t you have any w
Anna stormed into James' office as the door banged closely behind her the moment she stepped into the office. “Oh My Goodness! Anna, What’s wrong with you? Are you being pursued by another person?”- he stood up from his chair and quickly grabbed the doorknob to check if he might see the person pursuing her. “Come off it, James. No one is coming after me. I am the one being pissed off right now because of what I saw today. ”- she dropped her bag on his table in full force. He grabbed his chair and sat down quietly to listen to her pour out her mind, “What is the problem, my dear? Anna baby you know I'm always here for you so why are you looking this way?”- his hands played with her cheeks to lighten up her mood a little bit. “I'm not in the mood for all this kind of play, James. I'm sure that by the time you hear all that I'm about to spill to you then you'll have to take your filthy hands off my cheeks. ”- she pulled his hands off her face and kept on wearing a frown look. He l
“I want all of you and everything you got in between your thighs. ”- his voice went so slow as he picked his words one at a time. She stood up from her seat and placed her hands on his chest, “Are you sure about this? ” His head nodded so quickly in response, “Yes! I'm sure about everything I've said to you here, Anna. ” She moved her breast closer to his face, “Can you handle it that no one is going to hear the sound you make. ”- her lips curled into his ears as she whispered. “I don't think I might be able to control it this time around but if I can have a taste of you in here then I will be able to hold myself. ”- his voice pleaded with mercy from the way he sounded. She slowly unbutton the first button on her shirt her skin being transparent in that shirt. Knock! Knock! “Damn it! Not this time of the day. Who is at the door? ”- he slammed his fist on the take and quickly buttoned up his trousers. “It's… me. Anita, ”- she stuttered a little bit trying to find composure
“Yes! She is one of my competent staff and I can vouch that she will always deliver premium content for me no matter what happens.” “Hmm… I hope that you both just maintain that employer and employee relationship and nothing more apart from that.”- she gave a deep sigh as she poured out her thoughts. He pulled her closer to himself and placed his hands on her hips, “You don’t have to bother about that at all. Come and give me some sugar and lighten up my mood instead of planning to ruin it because of your insecurity.” “I’m not being insecure at all. I’m just trying my best to remind you that you have to set boundaries and know your stand.”- her voice sounded so weak and feeble. “Alright! I’ve heard everything you’ve said and I’ll stick to that just to see that you are happy and make me feel at peace. So, can you now come and give me some sugar instead of you wasting more time.”- his voice pleaded for mercy as he held unto her waist so tight. “James, we can do this some other time.
Jason pulled him back after receiving the warm embrace that was presented to him by Mason, “Are you sure you are fine? Are you sure nothing happened to you?” He touched all the body of Mason to be sure nothing happened to him. “I'm doing okay, man. It feels so good to see you, Jason. I thought you wouldn't show up right here with me.” he hugged him one more time before relaxing the tightness of his body. “No way! Mason, there is no way I won't show up right here after everything I heard on that call. I'm more than excited to see that you are safe.” A warm smile erupted on his face,“Thank you, Jason. But, how were you able to locate my father's house I know that I've never for once brought you here before.”Jason smiled back at Mason and shook his head back and forth in agreement with what he said, “Well, I and Precious traced you one time when you left the office abruptly and that's how I was able to locate your father's mansion.”“What is happening over there? Mason, who are you
“This isn’t real!” Lucas was stunned as he heard the loud sound of the gun the moment the senior officer fired it directly at Alex.“I hope nothing happened to Alex.” James leaned closer to Lucas using him as a means to find his strength as he couldn’t get over the fact that a bullet just went through Alex's back.“Pick him up!” The senior officer yelled at the other officer standing close to where Alex lay on the floor.The young officer nodded his head in affirmation and without wasting much time pulled Alex up with his back being covered with blood as if he was drowning in a pool of blood.“What should I do to him, Sir?” the officer asked, looking bothered while waiting for the commander to give him a command so he could follow his lead.“Take him to the ambulance and have him handcuffed.” He darted his face over to Lucas and James who were shivering from the way they kept on leaning on each other.“I want you both to stretch forth your hands without any fuss.” His eyes were on the
Aunty Margaret groaned in pain as she lay on Andrew’s body trying so hard to protect him from getting hurt and being attacked by his oppressors. “Dad, are you okay? Aunty Margaret, can..can..you hear me?” Mason's eyes were gradually getting heavy with the tears he had been hoarding for far too long.Andrew managed to shove himself off Maragraet’s body while she was still lying on him, “Margaret, can you hear me at all?” He managed to ask with his weak voice.“I need to be taken to the hospital as soon as possible. My leg feels heavy and I…can’t..feel..myself anymore.” She poured out her words in pain with her hands still holding the tip of her leg groaning out in loud pain of discomfort.“Fuck!” Mason gradually stood up from the floor and placed Aunty Margaret’s head over his Dad’s lap.He ran over as fast as his legs could carry him the moment his eyes caught Naomi as she was trying to plot her escape amidst the officers that were being surrounded in the room. Mason jumped over the
“What!!!” The gun that Alex had on his hands dropped to the floor in agitation. “Any words or actions you say or do will be used against you in the court of law. I want you to surrender yourself and walk through the door,” the senior officer said aloud.The security officers stayed in circles as they surrounded every corner of the living room, while some of the armed men stayed outside the mansion, protecting the wall corner so no one would escape. The loud sound of their siren echoed through the estate and some of the neighborhoods were curious to know what was happening behind closed doors. “But, we didn't do anything at all, Officer. You can't just bump into us and ask that we surrender to you.”James attacked the officer without feeling any remorse for his actions. The other officer cocked out his gun still putting on a straight face, “Young man, don't force me to pull this trigger on you. You heard what he said, right? So just do it and stop wasting our precious time.”“I'm so
Everyone in the room was startled the moment they heard the old cracky voice coming from behind. Both James who was about to pull the trigger on Mason and Lucas who was charging James up to pull the trigger slowly turned their head to see where the voices were coming from. “Yes! You heard what I said and the earlier you drop, down the gun and surrender yourself to the police the better for everyone.” Aunty Margaret's hands were shaking as she placed the phone right to their faces still maintaining a long distance away from them. “Who the hell are you? And, what exactly are you doing in here?” Alex faced her a dead stare walking closer to her with every pang of anger. “That shouldn't be the question you are many to ask at this crucial hour, Alex. You have less than five minutes to surrender yourself to the police unless..”“Unless what? You guys can't do anything at all. All that you all are known for is to keep on making empty promises and threats.” James gawked at her without any
“Why are you still raising an alarm? Common! Take my life, Alex.” Mason was bold enough to give him a swift response without feeling an iota of fear in him. He was ready to take the bull by the horns and face him one-on-one without feeling scared of how it would feel once he pulls the trigger. “I can see that you've grown so many balls, Mason.”Alex placed the pistol on his temple and kept on hitting it on his temple repeatedly.“Do your worst, Alex. You can't do anything to me just pull the trigger and let's end it once and for all.” He yelled at him with his heart panting and racing so fast. “I love the way you have so much balls in you.” He smiled at him and jerked him off his shoulder. “I don't give a fuck about you Alex. Do your worst and let's end it once and for all.”“Alex, why the hell are you trying to pity this bastard? Pull the trigger and let's get ourselves out of this place once and for all.” Lucas commanded him instructing him to take the lead. “Okay, boss. I'll do
Alex patiently waited for Andrew to say a word but the young man was still bold and courageous that he didn't even bother to flinch or utter anything at all. “I can see that you've grown so big that you are no longer scared about your life anymore.” Alex out of annoyance tightened his neck so hard. “You..can’t…do.. anything..to me.” He struggled to say a word but kept on persisting as he stuttered with his words. “Is this how stubborn you are? I can see that you are just as stubborn as your son.” Lucas moved over to where Alex stayed beside Andrew still holding onto the pistol. “Poor Mason! Won't you tell your father not to be stubborn and say his final words of prayer? You can see that I've been lenient to you and your dad.” He moved his face closer to him. A roar of laughter came out of Mason's mouth after hearing the words gradually coming out of Lucas's mouth. The loud laughter triggered Lucas to stand up from his squatted position and angrily grabbed Mason's neck so tight t
“What!” Lucas and Alex chorused together with shock all over their faces after hearing the truth coming out of her mouth. Mason waved his head over to his dad with a thousand and one question going through his mind, “Dad, can you hear what this young lady is saying? Is she truly my mother?”“Mason, you don't have to listen to everything that she is saying. Naomi is a blatant liar and I'm certain the major reason why she is in here is to cause destruction.” Andrew shoved his chair trying to come closer to where his son sat. “Really? Is that what you've been feeding my son with, Andrew?” She kicked her leg on his chair with anger gracing her voice. “How dare you lie to his face, Andrew? Why didn't you tell him that I've been there for you through thick and thin? Why are you causing so much harm and pain to this young boy?”“Pain?” Andrew chuckled out in euphoria. “If anyone should be talking about pain it should be me and not your stupid ass, Andrew.” She blurted out at him. “Dad,
The room suddenly went cold as everyone threw their gaze on the young lady whom Andrew had addressed as Naomi. The poor aged man cleaned his eyes by blinking it twice since his hands had been tied to the chair while rying to be sure that he wasn't dreaming at all. “Naomi, is that you? Are you the one?” He gave her this shocking expression while still trying to fight what he had just witnessed. “Dad, do you know her? Where do you know her from?” Mason blinked his eyes trying to understand the reason why his father was shocked to see the fair young lady standing at the entrance of the door without saying anything. "The last time I checked, Dad. I haven't seen you with a lady so who is she to you." he pressed further to know more. “Will you shut up your mouth, Mason?” Alex smacked his lips with his back hands instructing him to keep shut. Mason closed his eyes in regret, waiting and hoping for the time he would be free from this chair so he would be able to show Alex the type of man
