Chapter 90 As White went through it, his face slowly became enraged and darkened. “How was she able to get the contract with them after everything we did?” He ran his hand angrily on the table with his face tightened in rage. “Who could be this new CEO?" He asked rhetorically, wondering. Just then, the answer he got made his angry expression change even worse. “Dad, what if it's Michael,” Cordelia uttered. “I remembered when he said we weren't going to get this contract. What if he decides to give it to his ex-wife then?” White looked at Cordelia in incredulity. “Did you even hear yourself out?” He asked, feeling annoyed at Cordelia's reply. At this moment, he was angry and Cordelia mentioning this useless man's name made him get more furious. “How do you think that worthless man can be the CEO of such a popular and wealthy company?” White shook his head heavily in disgust. “A pig has no place in a clean environment.” Cordelia felt like the most confused person in th
Chapter 91 Getting outside, Michael took a deep breath of relief and muttered. “Now, I have to go and get good and costly clothes from the expensive boutique.” Meanwhile, at the Stephen manor, Joseph went to his father's room, where he was seated with his two legs crossed. His eyes were on a newspaper that he was reading. “Dad, I'm going out to get some nice clothes for the party that will take place tomorrow,” Joseph said, wanting to be found neat on the party day. Removing his head from the newspaper, Stephen asked, feeling concerned. “Do you have the money for it?” Joseph shook his head, replying. “No, Dad. But tomorrow is gonna be a big day so I have to seek all means to get something nice. Perhaps, borrowing some money from my friends since we have gotten this contract, refunding them back won't be an issue.” Stephen nodded his head in agreement. It was a nice idea though. “No problem, son. Just do as it pleases you.” He said, “But I think we have nice clothes in our
Chapter 92 Pointing to a direction, he questioned with a puzzled tone and look. “Look here, Joseph. Is that not Michael you're looking for? What's he doing here?” Joseph turned without delay, his brows furrowed, looking intently to the direction where his friend had pointed. At first, he doubted who he saw, but it later dawned on him that it was Michael. That once useless brother-in-law of his. Immediately, Joseph confirmed that it was Michael; he angrily threw away the packaged bag of clothes he had brought to the ground, which his friend quickly picked up. His eyes also blazed with rage as he clasped his fists in anger, rushing towards Michael's direction. He yelled aloud, “Hey, you worthless man.” He bit his lips tightly and his friend rushed after him. Customers who were present at that moment couldn't help but pause, staring at Joseph. Some of them rushed and followed him instantly to see him in action. Meanwhile, where Michael was, he didn't hear a shout from Jos
Chapter 93 While Joseph turned to the onlookers. “Hello, everyone. Listen here, this man here is a….” He pointed at Michael as he began to talk to everyone. “This man you all are looking at is a leech. He's a wicked person. He has been a parasite to my family ever since he got married to my sister. We have been feeding him and doing other things for him. We never knew he had bad intentions towards my sister. The very day my sister got fed up with him, she filed for a divorce without a clue that this leech here had already taken advantage of her.” Joseph paused and his two friends nodded their heads in agreement. The onlookers believed Joseph immediately because, at that moment, Michael wasn't dressing properly. If not for the fact that Michael had already gotten a nice haircut that shaped his face, making him look handsome, the onlookers would have called him a lunatic. Noticing how everyone in the place was looking at him with disgust in their eyes, Michael couldn't hold h
Chapter 94 Dinged! The sales lady's phone vibrated aloud and lit up for a message instantly. “Joseph? He did it?” Joseph's friends tapped him in disbelief. Everyone's mouths were wide opened at the swift happenings. They looked at each other, shocked. Unable to find rightful words at that moment. Some even bowed their heads in shame and walked away while some stayed. After his friends tapped him, Joseph shook his head in disagreement. “That's a lie. It must be just an SMS not about anything like a transaction from him.” Joseph said, before staring at the sales lady in annoyance. “Is this some sort of joke or what? Are you joking around with your job or what? Do you want to lose it? If you want I can help you do that with my power.” Joseph threatened. The sales lady shook her head, indicating it was the alert notification she had received. To prove this, she was about to show Joseph the message but Michael pulled her back gently. Shaking his head with his frowned face, M
Chapter 95 “Good day, it's Franklin, the manager of Golden Group of Companies speaking.” A mature yet polite voice came from the other end of the call. Joseph's jaws almost dropped as he heard this. He looked at Stephen, his father, whose face was a hint of confusion because he wasn't hearing anything on the phone. “Dad, it's the Golden Group of Companies’ manager.” Joseph leaned to Stephen and whispered in a low tone that was barely audible. Stephen's mouth opened wide in astonishment. His eyes almost pulling out from its socket, he gestured at Joseph to put the phone on loudspeaker. Joseph nodded and did it immediately. “Are you still there, sir?” Franklin asked from the other line. Joseph nodded his head. “Yes, yes, sir. I'm here.” “Okay. Am I speaking with Joseph Stephen?” “Yes, sir. You're talking to the right person. Please, go on.” Joseph stammered in disbelief. “Alright, then. I got your contact from the delivery man who came to your house earlier for the s
Chapter 96Everyone simply nodded their heads coldly with satisfied expressions. “It's a brilliant idea. We are all going with you.” They all echoed at the same time.Meanwhile, at the Stephen manor, a lively party was in full swing. The grand hall was laced with beautiful decorations, and the sound of low-moved music filled the air. People were dancing, holding glassy cups of wine in their hands. The clinking of the glasses filled the air as the guests tossed for celebration.Meanwhile, inside the grand hall where the party is held, Joseph is dressed in a light red suit with his eyeglasses on. This was the suit he had bought from the Boutique store alongside his friends.The suit was glittering, making Joseph look smart and handsome. There was an explosion of smiles that played around the sides of his mouth as he walked around.Stephen, his father, on the other side was also dressed in a shiny suit. It was the one Joseph had bought for him, and it was well-suited for him.He was busy
Chapter 97 Just as Joseph stood up to lead the way, Michael called after him. “Hey, young man. Come here.” Joseph, hearing that, halted. His expression was that of bewilderment. The voice of who he just heard sounded familiar to him. And if vividly remembered, he knew that this voice was the same as that of his useless ex-brother-in-law. But who was he to query the CEO? Turning around, Joseph bowed his head slightly as he asked, politely. “Yes, sir. Do you want anything?” Michael shook his head, tittering. “No, I don't, but what if I want? Will you be kind enough to offer me something?” He asked, looking at Joseph as disbelief etched on his face. This same Joseph had been rude to him always and now, he is responding to him so kindly because he isn't aware that it was Michael. Joseph instantly nodded his head before saying, “Let's go inside, sir, so I can get you something." Franklin nodded in place of Michael, and immediately, six hefty bodyguards with intimidating heig
