"Manager Zhang" a coquettish voice rang out as Alissa threw herself at the bald greasy man.
Manager Zhang and the other staff greeted each other in unison. Deep down, the staff hated and looked down on Alissa, she sold herself to such an old man and worked as she pleased with no manners but no one could do anything to her.
Meanwhile, manager Zhang was enjoying every bit of that soft skin rubbing against him as she whined: “Baby, you have to get justice for me, I was trying to advise her to stop giving some clients excess refreshments as there are more clients, but Bella scolded me and threatened to report me to management.”
Alissa complained as she squeezed tiny tears from her eyes to make her seem pitiful.
Bella:(….)
Customers (….)
Sales consultant (…)
Everyone was simply speechless, this was the life definition of calling black white, the peak of shamelessness.
As expected, Manager Zhang fell for her act “Who did it, who is Bella?” Manager Zhang roared.
“Sir, it's me, but I did no such thing. Bella was the one who insulted a customer without valid cause. I merely sought to defend the rights of our client,” Bella explained, but manager Zhang proved impossible.
“This puny poor brat is a customer, why didn't you call him the CEO of this company then, from his dress, you can deduce that his a poor boy with nothing to offer, you are a disappointment, pack your stuff and leave immediately, blue sea manor doesn't need such hopeless individual.” manager Zhang said viciously.
Bella's face paled like a paper, just as she was about to retort, a calm lazy voice drifted over “Who said you could sack my staff, you fat pig” Eren said as he came closer to Zhang.
He had simply had enough of this, he couldn't believe such a behavior would be found in Manager Zhang.
“Boy, how dare you call me a pig, today I will set an example with you to deter all those pesky poor boys from stepping foot in my territory, security!!! Come teach this brat a lesson, break all his limbs, and......”
“Stop!” A loud voice interrupted manager Zhang as a group of men dressed in suits walked briskly towards them.
Aigo, CEO David, and Manager Zhang quickly called out as they saw the approaching man.
Seeing the CEO smiling and looking towards him, manager Zhang thought that the CEO was in approval with him, not knowing that the smile was meant for the person behind him EREN
"Mr. David, don't worry, I will make sure you are satisfied with…" Zhang whispered, but David interrupted him.
“Get out of my way, " CEO David coldly shoved Manager Zhang aside as he called out “CEO Eren" and gave a deep bow.
Manager Zhang…
Bella and others…
Alissa: ….
The two simple words were like a thunderclap to everyone there. Manager Zhang felt fear rising from the pit of his stomach as he stubbornly asked, “Are you sure that's the New CEO of the company, you might be mistaken, this man here is just a poor ghost who came to…"
Pah, a loud slap stopped Zhang before a voice filled with anger “You ungrateful pig, how dare you address CEO Eren as poor, what gave you the nerve to do that, pack your property and get the hell out of this place now, you have no more business here”
“Please, sir, show mercy, give me another chance, I will never do it again”, Zhang begged, but when he saw that begging David was of no use, he diverted his attention to Eren.
Please, CEO Eren, forgive me, you wouldn't hold this grudge against me right, please have mercy. l have a sick mother and my family, please if I lose this job, how will I feed them "
Eren glanced coldly at this sorry excuse of a human being also having a family,
“I thought you didn't when you brazenly dismissed workers who also have family depending on them, you distorted the reputation and tainted the soil of this establishment with your filth of corruption, you should be thanking me for not calling the cops on you, security! Toss this imbecile out of here.” Eren commanded coldly.
Alissa felt so much regret that her intestines turned green, she felt like slapping herself for her stupidity. As she wanted to run away before Eren sighted her, the sharp-eyed sales consultant who had long hated Alissa's guts held her and alerted others.
“Guys, the main culprit is running away”
“Oh that's true, I forgot about her Alissa or whatever you are called, you should just leave to avoid embarrassment and next job you get, don't look down on people,” Eren Advised
“Please sir, Alissa begged”, she wasn't ready to leave the job, the salary was high, and she got numerous bonuses, her extravagant lifestyle made it hard for her to pick a lesser company to work in, even if she decided to work elsewhere, who would hire a person sacked from one of the leading real estate cooperation in New York City.
Thinking up to her, she ran and hugged Eren's hands and tried to use the same honey trick she used on manager Zhang,
“Please, sir Eren, can you bear to see me out in the streets, I will not look down on anyone else again, please don't sack me, I will do anything you ask of me,”
Alissa said as she winked at Eren, the wink suggesting even sleeping with Eren"
"Get your disgusting self out of my way", Eren said as he pushed her aside roughly, he was simply disgusted by Alissa's shameless character.
“Bella, from now on, you will manage this company, continue the good work,” Eren shifted his attention to Bella.
"Thank you, sir, I will do my best for the company”
Alissa left the lobby in shame amidst the cheers of Bella and others.
“You bitch, you ruined my life, you caused my disaster,” Manager Zhang, who was lurking around, saw Alissa and beat her up mercilessly. Alissa screamed for help but no one pitied her because she deserved every bit of what she got.
“Sir, this is a welcome gift prepared by other shareholders. It's the number one villa located at the heart of blue sea manor.”“Let's go see this place,” Eren said at once. He needed a house and one fell right in his lap. Mr. David affirmed as he drove Eren to Bayside district, a district for the wealthiest of the wealthy where an inch of land is gold, villa number one is the best villa out of the 40 villas that graced the area.“Mr Eren, this is villa number one,” David said as he pointed towards the distance.What came into view was an enchanting villa that perfectly combined ancient European architecture and the beauty of Chinese tradition. Eren entered through the European-inspired doorway with intricate stone carvings of Greek mythology. The foyer had a mosaic floor and eloquently framed Chinese calligraphy.The villa is divided into 4 gates which are north, south, East, and west with each gate having a total of 6 rooms. The living room and European antiques such as the Loui
“Yuri!” “Eren!” The two people said in unison as they stared at each other. “What are you doing here” Eren asked Yuri “Well, my father sent me here to greet the tycoon who bought villa number one” Yuri replied as she threw back her question “How about you, what are you doing here, he… Don't tell me you are the tycoon's son, wow, l need to not judge by appearance, who could have thought that you had such a rich dad with the way you dressed” Yuri replied to her question looking convinced of her logic as she kept nodding her head.Eren: (…) What the hell is going on in this girl's mind? Uhm, l am not a son, l am the tycoon, Eren scratches the back of his head.“Eh, how, you big bad bully, why didn't you tell me, you were happy seeing me make a fool of myself right?” Yuri hit Eren with her petite fist as anger and shame ran through her.Seeing her cheeks puff like that of a puffer fish, Eren couldn't resist laughing “You, you dare to laugh!!! I hate you, l am never talking to you aga
“Young man, have some tea,” Grandpa Huo said as he poured a rich Chinese herbal tea into Eren's teacup.As Eren made himself comfortable, Grandpa Huo began “Young man, I would like to extend my appreciation to you for saving my life, doctor smith made sure to mention your help to me, l had previously prepared a check to thank you but you're acquiring villa number one shows you do not need money.So i will owe you a favor, for one time, anything you ask of me will be done for you.“Tell me about yourself, l am curious as to what a Chinese military man is doing in New York City or rather America" Eren musedThe smile on Grandpa Huo's face fell as he sized Eren up, “Kid, don't meddle in things above you, you might end up dying without a corpse”“I can't help it, I want to know whether or not l die in the process is for me to worry about” Eren replied, seeing the secretive nature of Grandpa Huo, he was more convinced that his identity was really important and possibly dangerous“I don't
“Let it out, Eren, let's see how it goes.” Grandpa Huo replied in anticipation.Eren picked the next seat close to Grandpa and whispered into his ears as if he didn't want any other person to hear about it. Even though no one was present except the two.“I have resources, connections, and means to help you in your quest for justice. In return, you lend me the strength of the Dragon Head Legion when needed. Let's forge a partnership, Grandpa.” Eren whispered. “How do you think this will work? The Dragon Head Legion has long been in hiding, coming out now will mean great harm to all its members. More so, it has been a forgotten past in my life that I don't wish to reopen. I know I owe my life to you for saving my life, ask for anything else, I will grant it. But this is an impossible task, Eren.” Grandpa Huo replied to Eren as he strolled to his luxurious balcony in disagreement with Eren's proposal.Eren didn't relent, he knew he could convince Grandpa Huo if he pressed harder. He nee
Chapter 12Alliance “Eren wants to sign a partnership deal with me, he wishes to help me fight my long-lost battle in return for the Dragon head Legion whenever he needs it. Do you think it's a good idea? We barely know him, though he saved my life.” Grandpa Huo sought the opinion of his daughter.Yuri, who had already fallen in love with everything about Eren, couldn't wait to give Grandpa Huo to go-ahead to ally with Eren, “This will bring us even closer to each other and more, Eren is a very kind and rich man. He's everything I want in a man.” She muttered to herself.“Grandpa, I think you should consider Eren's proposal and give in to his request, I believe he has the connections and power to help us like he said, considering the way he bravely saved your life back then on our way to the hospital.He gave you the kind of treatment the doctors couldn't give you in years, Grandpa. I believe in him and I strongly agree with his proposal.” Grandpa Huo nodded in agreement with what h
“OK team, brace up! We are heading into the Smoky Hollows to rescue Sean and Nina. Let's all check out weapons, and be sure everything is in good condition.” Eren said to the selected soldiers who were to accompany him on the mission to the Hollows.“I've got my sniper ready. No one can escape my sights. Eren, relax, just lead the way, be rest assured that we'll have your back.” Ram, the sharpshooter, responded.I have set up the computer systems for surveillance. We must know the enemy's movements. Any Intel on Malcolm's men's hideouts?” Marie, the computer operator, asked.I have the coordinates. Malcolm's lair is well guarded. Kira, recheck the map. Rass, prepare some extra weapons, let's have them in excess, just in case.” Eren commanded.“Location Confirmed, Eren. The map shows a direct route, but there's a potential desert along the way. We need to be prepared for harsh conditions.” Kira advised.“I've gotten a couple of extra grenades and some high-powered rifles. We will be we
“Honey, we need to be strong, we can't give up, we just have to find a way to get out of here, look for Uncle Eren so that we can have our revenge, “Sean said.“Uncle Eren, Mom, don't kid me, Uncle Eren is dead, Malcolm that bastard said so himself, and even if he isn't, you think he'll fare better than us here, he can't even protect himself, let alone us,” Nina said sarcastically.Far off in the distance, a swarm of tiny insects that seemed to cover the sun was rapidly approaching. Their teeth were razored sharp with a desire to kill. They were the eye warts.“These damn little insects can't cut us some slack” Nina cussed as she got up and continued running.“Nina, over there, there appears to be a tunnel, let's hide there,” Sean said pointing at a narrow tunnel that opened its mouth wide like a hunting jaguar.“No, Mom, the tunnel is too small, hiding there will narrow our chances of escaping, we need a wider space” Nina refused.As Nina was still suggesting an alternative, a fast-p
“Boom” The team took a step into the lush orchard.“Guys, where are all of you?” Eren called as he looked around the quiet environment.“Where is this place, "Eren said as he found himself in front of a narrow street.“Rass, Kira,” where did the heck are you guys, maybe we got displaced”“Wait, the street feels so familiar, when did I come here?” Eren thought as he continued going down the narrow path.“Brother, what are you doing outside? The guests are waiting for you, it is your big day today." A voice he would never forget even if he died sounded.“Malcolm, now I remember, this street is the road to Audrey's family house. This scene! My engagement with Audrey. But why? Why am I here? "Eren muttered.“Brother, hello brother, are you there?”The smiling Malcolm waved at Eren. He looked puzzled at his elder brother spacing out.Seeing the young, innocent-looking Malcolm, Eren sneered in disgust. What is an actor? His engagement happened 3 years ago, but he was poisoned five years ago,
