The Billion-Dollar Windfall: Edwin Volvox CHAPTER 42
"I never said I did. I only take an interest in why that bitch would go to any length trying hard to make the boss look like a fool in the presence of others." Linda said, avoiding gazes while she rushed to the table.She pulled a plate of meal herself and hurriedly began to munch."I just hate it when somebody comes up trying to take advantage when they are wrong."She faced Xander. "Tell me what exactly happened between the boss and that lady. How did the separation happen?" she inquired with a half-filled mouth.Xander as well sighed before he voiced. "She left because the boss was still poor and then she followed another man.""Ha…ha…" Surprisingly, Linda burst into laughter, startling everyone around."It's not funny, Linda." Xander voiced amidst the meal."Yeah, it is. Sorry, I laughed. Isn't it just funny? What century are we where women do not have a work of their own?""Just zip up now, Linda, The boss must not hear you speaking this way." Alaric cautioned."I get your point

"I'm leaving. Considering the way you all behave, it shows I'm not fit to stay here. I would rather return to the club than stick with people who would constantly prick me on my skin with whatever they discovered of me." Linda voiced painfully, also heading to the wardrobe, and hurriedly hurling her clothes into her bags."Hey, hey hey, easy Linda." Xander hurriedly proceeded to stop her, trying to catch every cloth she threw."Just let go of me, Xander!" she yelled again, and this time with a firm tone, however, Xander wasn't giving in. He grabbed her wrist and held onto it firmly. Even though she made use of the other, hitting his chest constantly, Xander wasn't letting go. "You aren't going anywhere, Linda. Everything the boss said earlier on, he never meant it. Trust me when I say he is fun to be with, he is never a man to take advantage of his subordinates."With gritted teeth, she replied to him. "So what if he did learn about my parents? What if he did learn about why I did wh

"What do you mean, the search will be more? What else did you find out? You are obviously coming from Linda's room, so what did you find out in a few minutes?" Alaric asked."Well, first of all guys, Linda lost her parents… Yea, they died just like boss said, but speaking to her and getting full details, I did realise that it was way more than death in a motor accident." While the discussion was going on, Edwin had asked Draco to pour him more shots, and at a go, he had taken two shots. And his visions were somewhat blurry, displaying his subordinates in double."Why are you guys having two resemblances?" Edwin voiced pointing at them."Two resemblances?" They each looked at themselves. "Boss is really drunk… I hope he doesn't puke on the nice floored tiles?" Tony softly mumbled.Draco had equivalently taken four more at a go, and just as suggested that shots would even cause a drug lord to go tipsy, he finally was getting tipsy. "You think boss will be able to do this?" Alaric ask

"Honestly, guys, what do you think?" Xander questioned in excitement."it's a no.." Alaric was against it."Of course, it's a yes." Linda stood before Edwin with her arms resting below her breast. "Boss, you won't tell me no right? Remember I wasn't present for the initiation, please take us out," she pouted."Boss, that's true. I didn't even think about this before. She wasn't present for the initiation, Please take her out and take us along as well." Xander stated.However, others laughed him off. "That's not right Xander, this is about Linda not you, so your charm won't work.""Mine would." Draco raised an arm, in the middle of crunching his cookie. "Boss, please take us out. Considering the fact that I have been stuck between these four walls for the past few months. I feel like I'm emaciating."'No, you are actually dying. Dying fits in." Xander jokes. "Yeah, right. Boss, I'm dying." Draco said jokingly."Guys, fine. You can choose wherever you want to go, on just one condition.

Bonnie, the manager, was trying hard to make it seem as though Edwin was the wrong one. Considering the fact that she did want to make sure that Edwin was well humiliated, Freya, was not able to attend to other incoming customers, thereby causing a long queue."Please bear with us while we disgrace this thief and his gang outta here, setting them as a good example to others who find stealing quite pleasurable." Bonnie had addressed the new customers, after which she turned back to Edwin."Now, considering the instructions my receptionist issued at first, I would want all of you to leave, at this moment," Bonnie repeated, but then she suddenly stopped and said. "Or on second thought, I see how you guys seem to be hungry and you definitely want to feed here, so I'll give you the grace of sorting things out yourself."She turned to the receptionist before she said. "Freya, give them the list of customer requirements. Let them know of every level that exists. And then, let's see if they

Bonnie was dumbstruck and her feet froze to the ground. Edwin she knew would never in his whole life be able to secure a fortune not to talk of a bill of six million at a go."Bonnie, you are delaying me. I've got a lot of things to attend to. So were your words to me. If you don't mind, I guess you should hand over the papers to me."Bonnie couldn't withstand selling her business that she had built for several years, raising it from the scratch to its present level. Hence, she lied. "What paperwork? This place belongs to me, did I ever say I was going to sell it? I won't, I never will." she interjected sharply."Huh! Really! She's going to deny in the presence of everyone here? Is this really a joke?" Linda spouts in disgust."She's trying hard to pull her string, but it's never going to work, because I'm so sure the boss won't allow it." Xander answered her."He better not do it, because this lady is an animal, people like them do not have the right to life. Just after a lot of hum

"Wow, such a stressful day it was, but it was worth the stress all along," Xander said, falling into the seat the moment they got home."Yeah, it was worth it. I loved the way it turned out. I loved my boss's sense of judgement." Tony replied."I did too, just that I cringed when he mentioned locking up that bad-mouthed girl for three days with no food or water, I felt for her." Linda chipped in, but not until Edwin, Draco and Alaric strode in before they each went silent."Boss, that was brilliant, giving the lowlife an opportunity.""Yeah, sure. But no one is a low-life either. Opportunity separates us." Edwin responded. "Alaric, here, take this." he handed over the papers."Boss,""It's for you. You own it. I have enough to my name, I don't need more. So you can have it.""And here comes just another benevolent act." Linda voiced with a smile. "He is just tooooo benevolent," she said, stressing the o in the words."Thanks, boss. I appreciate this." Alaric was about to say more but

"Where is he, where can I find him?" Linda yelled at the top of her voice, clenching her teeth, and tightening her fist."Calm down, Linda. Another reason we never wanted to tell you yet." Xander tried to pacify her.."I don't care Xander, I feel like tearing life out of him. He is a beast! Kimberly is a beast!" Linda cried out at the top of her voice falling to the ground.Her voice had alerted the rest, and they came running into the kitchen. "What happened? And Perry, I thought we were heading out, what happened, why aren't you dressed?" Edwin asked shifting his gaze from Linda to Perry, trying hard to understand what was going on."Yeah, boss. I was supposed to go get dressed, but then I came for the water you asked of me, and I met Xander.""Xander! Did you cause Linda's pain?" Edwin was quick to ask even before getting a response."Not at all, boss, I didn't, but something we discovered made her cry," Xander answered, squatting low to pacify Linda."What did you guys discover th
