2023-06-14 14:29:33"As a leader, you've been unfair, Vin," Edward criticised.
"No! Don't do it, Vin!" defends Emma. Vincent only gave her a quick glance.
"Is there no other punishment than dismissal?" Edward was rather frightened to hear Vincent sacking him.
"Should I kneel down and prostrate myself before you to get forgiveness?"
Edward's tone and demeanour instantly turned formal in front of the Vice President. Too late! Vincent was not easily provoked by his sycophantic ways.
"Go away! Scum like you don't belong in my company. The stench is too strong for me to let you hang around here," Vincent quipped as he lashed out at Edward. Emma screamed hysterically as she saw Vincent hit Edward.
"You saw that! Is this the loser you defended yesterday and keep comparing me to?" Vincent quipped.
Emma was also shocked to hear their conversation. Alvin led Edward out of the vice president's office.
"Shit!" Edward grunted in annoyance after Vincent kicked him out.
Now, the tall man felt hurt by Vincent's behaviour in sacking him from the company. In fact, it was not easy for Edward to get into the big company.
If Edward was fired, then what about Emma? Vincent turned his head towards Emma. He saw his ex-girlfriend trembling and her eyes looking expectantly at him.
"Starting next week you will be transferred to a branch office in a remote town. Get ready and pack all your things," Vincent told Emma's sentence.
"But Vin, I can't ...." Emma protested.
"My mind is made up. You can't argue with my orders," Vincent insisted.
Emma was stunned at her punishment. It felt like a bolt of lightning had struck her in broad daylight. Transferred to a branch office in a remote town? How could she go there?
After the punishment, Vincent ordered Emma out of his office and immediately carried out his orders.
Vincent had gotten rid of the bullies in the office. From now on, he would make new breakthroughs in his company. He started to implement new policies, tighten office rules, and make his employees even more productive.
Of course, this was not easy for Vincent to do alone. Many of his employees protested and disagreed with Vincent's leadership style in the office.
Vincent didn't care. His stance remains firm and he strongly holds his principles. He firmly believes that the discipline of success will be easy to achieve.
Mr Eduardo agreed with all the new policies Vincent had started to implement in the office. Mr Eduardo had guessed that Vincent would always be reliable. It was a no-brainer that Mr Eduardo would give the important position to Vincent, not his spoilt daughter Milea.
***
A young woman came into the office in a hurry. She looked very angry after finding out that her position in the office had been replaced by Vincent.
Milea opened the door to the office of the Chairman, her father, and immediately protested in front of Mr Eduardo and Vincent.
"DAD!" Milea shouted as she entered her father's office.
"I don't agree with your decision!" Milea was furious. Her temper exploded in front of her father.
Vincent turned his head towards her. This was the first time he had seen the Chairman's daughter that Mr Eduardo had told him about. Her name was Milea. She was beautiful, educated, sweet, but looked like a spoilt homebody.
No wonder Mr Eduardo didn't allow his daughter to lead the company. From just a glance, Vincent could already judge Milea's personality.
"Milea, I want to introduce you to Vincent. Dad has arranged a match for the two of you," Mr Eduardo said distractedly. He also told Milea about the big secret he had been keeping all this time.
"What?" Milea was surprised to hear that. So was Vincent.
Since when had Mr Eduardo been planning the arranged marriage? What is Mr Eduardo planning this time? Vincent thought. To him, Mr Eduardo remained a mysterious figure who was not easy to guess.
"I ... don't want to be set up with him, Dad," Milea refused, pointing at Vincent's face. She rejected Vincent outright in front of her father.
Milea looked at Vincent with a hateful look in her eyes. It was like there was a grudge in her because Vincent dared to shift her position in the company as Vice President.
"What do you mean, sir? Why do you want to set me up with your daughter?" asked Vincent.
"Because those are the conditions, Vin," said Mr Eduardo.
"Conditions?" repeated Milea, not understanding.
One of the conditions Vincent had to accept after receiving all the wealth and valuable assets of the company owned by Mr Eduardo, Vincent had to marry Milea, his only daughter.
"No!" Milea refused firmly. "Once again, I will never marry him. If you still insist, I will leave your life forever," she threatened.
Milea left the President's office with a grunt of annoyance. She did not agree with her father's decision this time. After her position in the company was taken away by Vincent, she now had to be matched with the young foreigner.
'Married? Seriously,' Milea grumbled to herself.
"Vin, I need you to watch and look after Milea. My spoilt daughter is always on the go and she might do something unexpected. Now, you are fully responsible for Milea. Understood?" ordered Mr Eduardo.
"Yes. I understand Sir," Vincent obeyed Mr Eduardo's orders. He walked out of the Chairman's room to his office.
Vincent began to watch Milea's movements. All of Milea's activities outside of the house, her friends, and even her boyfriend were always monitored with the help of a tracking device he created that was connected to the GPS on his mobile phone.
Vincent secretly inserted a GPS application into Milea's mobile phone without her knowledge. She had no idea that he was a hacker who could easily infiltrate her smartphone system.
Milea was at a certain point in time. Her radar showed that she was somewhere. Vincent was still watching her from a distance. Suddenly, her mobile phone was no longer connected. What happened? Vincent began to worry about her whereabouts.
"If left unchecked, Milea could be in danger!" Then Vincent immediately went to pick up Milea to that point, the last position she was in.
"Damn!" grumbled Vincent as he walked away.

"Don't come any closer, you bastard!" Milea half-shouted at a man who was trying to do something to her. It looked like he was going to be mean and insolent to her."What's wrong with you, sweetheart? Why are you avoiding me now?" The man continued to advance his steps, cornering Milea until she was leaning against the wall of a room."If you dare touch me, you're finished! You will die," Milea threatened.The man wasn't afraid of Milea's threat at all. Moreover, the woman seemed to be trembling as she said it."I just need your money, Milea. Give it to me quickly, otherwise I will spread your vulgar video all over the internet," the man threatened."What a loser! How dare you threaten me," Milea taunted while looking away."After your video goes viral, what will your father do to you? Maybe he'll throw you out and kick you off the family inheritance list."

Vincent managed to find Milea in the city park. She was walking slowly and sitting on a swing near the playground where children usually play in the park. Her gaze was blank and she looked very sad. She was still thinking about the incident with her ex-boyfriend."Milea!" Vincent exclaimed as he approached her. Milea turned to him."Why can you always find me Vin?" Milea was surprised. She hurriedly wiped her tears that fell on her cheeks."Is my dad telling you to keep an eye on me now?" Milea guessed."Let's go home!" invited Vincent. He ignored Milea's question."I don't want to," Milea refused, looking away."We should go home first," Vincent persuaded. Milea did not say yes to Vincent's invitation."Your father is very worried about you, Milea," Vincent informed her. However, Milea did not take Vincent's word for it."I don't want to go home. My father has taken my place with you. Now, you are his son," Milea reasoned. However, the reasoning put forward by the spoilt child did no

Vincent was still thinking about everything Mr Eduardo had said. Suddenly a good idea came to him. He was going to redevelop his app. The one he had been working on.Vincent took another look at the microchip model he had just bought this afternoon via an online shop. He would put a microchip of his creation in Milea's mobile phone system. The microchip would function as a radar to track Milea's whereabouts.For hours, Vincent was still in front of his laptop. In fact, night had already turned into morning. Vincent hadn't slept all night. Today, he would test his microchip on Milea's mobile phone."Milea!" called Vincent. When they passed each other, Milea happened to have just come out of her room. She was about to head to the dining room to have breakfast with her father."Can I see your phone?

In fact, she seemed to have barged into Vincent's room without permission. Suddenly, she was stopped by several security guards, right in front of Vincent's office.What's going on? Why isn't Milea allowed in? She asked in surprise. Because Alvin ordered the security guards to tighten the security around the Vice President's room."Move aside!" ordered Milea rather fiercely at the two security guards standing in front of Vincent's office door."Sorry, Miss! Young Master Vincent does not allow you to enter his office," the security guards respectfully forbade in front of Milea."What did you say?" Milea was furious.

The Billionaire Revenge Cooperation Offer
"I didn't mean it like that, Mr Eduardo," Vincent tried to explain."So you deliberately destroyed your work? Didn't you prepare a backup?" Mr Eduardo was astonished."I couldn't, sir. I had to recreate the application rather than have it end up in a mess. Besides, the programme had already been read by someone else. I don't want anyone else to know the raw programme," Vincent explained again.Mr Eduardo understood. He understood completely and was very supportive of the decision Vincent had made. According to Mr Eduardo, Vincent was too brave to take that risk. Salute to him."Vin, from now on just use my company. It will also be yours one day.

The Enemy Behind the Mask
In a dark harbour area filled with tall containers. It was raining heavily, making the ground slippery and the air filled with the smell of sea salt.Milea's quick steps echoed as she ran between the containers. Her breathing was now ragged, the black shadows of armed men looming over her every move. Her heart was racing, fear haunting every breath. However, she could handle it because she was used to being chased by criminals.Milea had a bad feeling since Vincent left home in a hurry without telling her. She knew why he left secretly. It was because Vincent didn't want Milea to get involved again.“Don't let her get away!” shouted one of his pursuers.Milea jumped over a wooden box and rolled into the back of a container. Her body was already soaking wet. She pressed her back against the metal wall, hearing the heavy steps getting closer. Quickly, she slipped further into the dark, narrow passage. She tried not to make a sound as she hid the
A Trusted Informant
Without hesitation, Ryuga burst through the burning door, even though his hands and face were beginning to burn from the overwhelming heat. His eyes were focused on only one thing-Milea.“Ryuga... hurry...!” Milea was terrified.Ryuga saw Milea falling in the corner of the room, blocked by a partially burnt table. Wasting no time, he ran towards Milea and picked her up. However, the flames were getting closer, and several burning wooden beams fell between them, blocking the way out.“Hold on a little longer, Milea! I'll get you out!”Milea, who had already lost a lot of energy, could barely hold on. Her body was shivering, her face was pale, and her eyes were starting to blur as the smoke obscured her vision. Plus, her leg was injured.Ryuga held Milea's hand, clasped it tightly, and tried to calm himself down. The smoke was getting thicker, and the sound of the raging fire was choking the air. In that very critical conditio
Key in the Dark
Milea struggled alone with all her strength. The narrow walls of the room where she was kept felt like a cold iron cage. She pushed her body towards the small window, trying to pry open the tightly fitted steel trellis, but her efforts were in vain. Her legs were still hurting, and she couldn't walk if she tried.“There must be a way out of here,” she hissed, biting her lip as frustration crept into her mind.Milea twisted her body, her eyes scanning every corner for an opening. However, the security designed by her uncle, Nakamura, was too tight. Hidden cameras watched every move, and the electronic locks on the doors were impossible to penetrate without proper access.Nakamura, a man with a cold and calculating aura, stood in the control room on the other side of the building. Beside him, Ryuga-his son and leading member of the Ryuujin-kai-was watching the monitor screen with a gaze full of turbulent emotions.“You're being too hard on
A War that Starts in the Family
Vincent's eyes widened in surprise as his tablet lit up with running codes, emitting a cold blue light in the dark room. The basement where he was hiding suddenly felt more cramped. The sound of footsteps echoed above his head-they were getting closer, he thought.“Milea, hang on!” Vincent was still trying to crack the secret code that seemed to be getting harder and harder to crack.There was a sound from the earphones in his ears. Lorenzo's heavy, hateful voice infiltrated his mind like poison.“How does it feel, Vin? Being the son of a traitor?” asked a chuckling Lorenzo on the other side of the encrypted communication.“Shut up! You know nothing about my father,” Vincent hissed, his fingers dancing over the keyboard at lightning speed. He was trying to crack the final access code that would open a way out of the digital trap Lorenzo had set.Vincent had thought that it was Ryuga who had set the trap. He was wrong, it was Lorenzo's decoy. There was a possibility that Ryuga had take
The Game of Revenge
Vincent was furious. He couldn't wait any longer to see Milea suffer being kept there.“I have to save her!” Vincent insisted.Darkness enveloped the narrow hallway as Vincent ducked into the shadows, his breath held, ears attuned to the sound of each approaching step. The sound of boots treading the concrete floor echoed in the distance. His skilful hand pressed a small button on his wrist, and a blue holographic display lit up, mapping out the security path he was travelling.Every second felt like a needle, reminding him that time was ticking and Milea was still under threat.Vincent punched the large metal door with his fingertips, hacking the lock panel with a code he had spent weeks learning. The door opened slowly, revealing a dimly lit room. The sound of humming electricity greeted him, followed by the glow of white light emanating from a row of giant monitors on the wall.On each screen, Milea's face is clearly displayed. Her eyes are open, full of fear, while her body is tie
Invisible Networks
The silent night was broken by the soft sound of fingers tapping on a keyboard. In a darkened room with only the blue light of the monitor shining on his face, Vincent focussed all his attention on the scrolling lines of code on the screen.Vincent was shocked. As it turned out, Ryuujin-kai's cyber defence system was far more sophisticated than he had ever penetrated before, full of digital traps and firewalls that seemed to be alive, trying to catch intruders.“C'mon... it's almost done,” Vincent muttered as he quickened his hand.Red dots appeared in the corner of the monitor screen of the computer Vincent was using, signalling that the system had begun to sense his presence. He didn't care. This wasn't about stealing information-it was about finding the core of the enemy's power.With bated breath, Vincent bypassed the last layer of encryption. A secret directory began to open. Inside, a folder labelled ‘Operation Ryujin-Lorenzo’ caught his eye. He typed in the command to access th
Dangerous Choice
Vincent stared intently at the old photo that Milea had just given him. He scanned the photo until it appeared on the monitor screen. His hand trembled as he touched the screen, enlarging the blurry image.Next to a faintly smiling Lorenzo, stood a man with sharp eyes and a solid jaw who was presumed to be Uncle Peter, the man who was thought to have disappeared without a trace. The small dragon tattoo on the man's wrist was an undeniable sign. Vincent's eyes blinked, as if trying to reject the reality that was laid out before him.“This is impossible,” Vincent murmured, his voice a little hoarse between the shock and fear that began to cloud his mind.Milea sat beside her husband, clasping his hand tightly, her eyes full of determination and old wounds reopened.“He's involved, Vin. Lorenzo knows something about Uncle Peter's disappearance in the past. I'm sure of it,” Milea said, her voice trembling.Vincent took a deep breath, his mind racing for a solution. With forced calm, he lo
Shadow Tracks
The last bullet hit the concrete wall next to Vincent, splattering dust that blocked his view for a moment. Quickly, he pulled Milea behind the metal container that was beginning to fill with bullet holes.“They've surrounded us,” Vincent whispered in a tense tone, his hand clutching the gun with only a few bullets left.Luckily, Vincent had anticipated this before they escaped. “Then where should we go?” asked Milea.Milea, breathing heavily, pressed on her wound that was beginning to bleed. She accidentally stepped on a piece of broken glass and hurt her left leg. All around them, the enemy's footsteps approached, a sharp Japanese voice could be heard giving execution orders.Then, in the distance, the roar of a large vehicle rumbled, followed by the sound of heavy gunfire that broke the night. An armoured truck slammed into the iron fence blocking the entrance, widening the eyes of the pursuers. The back door swung open, and out stepped several heavily armed men who opened precisio
The Faceless War
After receiving this warning, Vincent tried to protect his wife Milea with all his might. He knew she was in danger and could be their next target. For him, it was too risky.The night in Santorini, which was usually calm, now began to feel tense. There was no longer the peace of their honeymoon. The dark sky stretched above them as Vincent and Milea stood at the edge of the pier, the sea breeze carrying a salty scent that stung their noses.The flashing lights of the small town in the distance were only a faint backdrop to the shadow of menace that was beginning to creep into their lives. Milea looked at the island that was to be their honeymoon spot with a wistful gaze.“We can stay here while looking for another way....” Milea's voice was almost a whisper, as if trying to maintain the calm that was beginning to crumble.Vincent grasped his wife's hand tightly, his face full of unwavering determination. “It's too late. They know where we are now.”Milea turned to Vincent with tears
