Although he looked all cheerful with a smile, Grandpa Ellison's expression certainly didn't seem the same. Because his tone was rather serious when he did speak "What were you thinking to let all these happen?"Hearing him ask that, he was more than sure what he meant. And he knew for sure that he was serious at the moment. He let out a soft smile as he leaned back on his seat "Nothing much... Don't worry about me""How am I not supposed to worry about you when something like this is bothering you? I mean I've seen all that's happening online and it's not looking good. People are talking trash about you and your status and company kept flopping. How am I supposed to keep calm about it?" He raised an eyebrow.Leo was calm for awhile as His Grandfather continued "How long do you plan on hiding it? How long do you plan on hiding the fact that you're the real son of the empire and all that belongs to you without questioning. How long are you going to let that bastard sit on a seat that is
The person who wanted to meet Max was already waiting for him when he arrived at the restaurant where they were to meet. There was a man sitting down in a VVIP room, waiting. And as soon Max walked into the room, he got up to his feet and welcomed max. They both exchanged pleasantries and sat back down. And as they did, they ordered some meals to go with their conversation."You wanted to see me personal even after sending me the invitation. Which was something new... so I was curious to know if everything was okay?" Max asked, raising an eyebrow while staring at the man.He smiled as he said "Nothing much. Well I was sent to meet you and invite you personally because we were sort of afraid that the invitation we sent you won't work. You've become a busy man so... it's easy to assume that you might not even have time to honour our invitation. So I came myself hoping to make you come and have you assure me to make it at least " He smiled.Max smiled as he sipped down the wine before hi
Days had gone by, and before one could even imagine it was already the weekend. And The day of the event arrived. Leo was already getting ready in his apartment. Katy helped him get ready as he brought the suits she had prepared for him."Are you sure you're going to go tonight? I mean I heard from Jakes that this event doesn't look too genuine. So I'm worried that it might not produce a lot of good outcomes. So I'm worried"she expressed.Leo smiled as he said "Don't worry about me, I already know what I'm up for, and I know how I'm going to handle it." he assured her with a kiss on her cheeks.She had no choice but to trust his words. He was always known to have his ways and do his thing. So she didn't stress too much about it. But rather kept his trust in him.Leo has gotten ready and left in his car. Jake was driving the car while he sat behind staring outside the window while admiring the night scenery along the way. Who would have thought that the journey wouldn't take too long
Leo stood there with the drink in his hands. Sipping it as though he wasn't the one being talked about. Even though it was already pretty obvious that he was the one. They were already looking at him and even max that was speaking had his eyes on him.Max had spoken to a point that he had looked towards Leo and said "...But nevertheless I'd still like to admire and praise his persistent spirit of always fighting ahead for a better future for himself.. that's admirable at least" He had added "And with regards to that, I'd like to invite him up to the stage for some drink" he raised a toast to Leo.Leo was now thrown into an awkward state. He didn't wish to go and therefore he was still standing where he was and not even bothered about looking in the direction of the man calling him from the stage. He had the drink in his hand, slowly enjoying his peace and drink that wasn't going to last that long.But everyone was already looking at him as silence befell the atmosphere. He wasn't movi
He had given it some cleaning before it became fair. But it didn't clean up. Leo sighed as he stared at himself in the mirror for awhile "Why am I even here? What did I even expect from an invitation like this?" He mumbled to himself while staring at the mirror.And while he stood there, Max walked into the washroom as well. And he came to stand beside him. Causally staring at himself in the mirror while washing his hands and fixing his hair. "I don't think the drink will be coming out at all, it's rather permanent. So you should throw the suit away since it's already useless.." He paused as he looked at Leo through the window."Oh, I almost forgot. You're almost broke so I don't think you can afford doing that" He smiled "But if you can't financially support yourself at the moment, you can always give me a dial. I promise I'll be there to help you out at least" he was smiling broadly while he spoke.Leo didn't even smile. He casually washed his hand while he said "I was wondering why
"Sir... something is wrong.." Jake expressed, an anxious expression on his face. He was staring at his phone while he packed the car. And Leo who was sitting at the back Looked up at him."What's wrong now?" He questioned from the back. He knew something wasn't right and he knew he was about to face something soon."I think my fears have come true" Jake said "They have sued our company and have taken this online. They're accusing our company of treating them terribly and at the moment dragging us online. It's literally throwing more stains on our reputation that has been bad recently..." He expressed.Leo sat there. With a calm expression while staring into thin air. He didn't seem moved or worried as always. It was as if he saw it all coming. He casually sighed while he stretched his neck. "I warned them against getting stupid. Now they have taken the path they feel is right for them I suppose" He sighed."What are we going to do about it now?" Jake questioned, hoping that Leo would
Leo's car pulled over at the Venue where he was to meet with mr Jonathan. And it was at the company. Leo's company.The protesting team was already there at Leo's company.

Come out here and face us! How dare you do this to us!" They yelled and snapped at Leo.But Leo didn't even bother looking at him.
