Levi almost gasped when he heard the amount being placed on the land. He turned to look at the moderator and he saw a smile on his face. He knew that the land was less expensive than they were bidding but his excessive need to win did not allow him to stop bidding with Roberto. He kept the battle up, desperate to be declared the winner after everything. "Five hundred million dollars!" Levi said. "Finally, we are getting started!" Roberto said, sounding very cocky. His statement brought a wave of fear to Levi. The man was just getting started. Maybe he was more deceptive than Levi has thought him out to be. "Six hundred million dollars!" Levi said and his face twisted. Roberto was more than pleased to see the look of worry plastered all over his face. It could only mean that he was getting ready to exhaust all his money. He was confident that Levi would not stop till he won. After all, his ego would never allow him to lose twice in a row. "What exactly am I doing?" Levi said to
Levi could not clearly see the man because his eyes were fixated at the pictures of the land as they were being showed. But Steven who scanned the room, could see the man clearly. He had on a white suit and his eyes widen when he saw the huge interest Levi had on the land. "I think you might have some competition over there," Steven said and drew Levi's attention to the man. "What are you talking...?" Levi said as he turned and his words got stuck in his throat when he saw the man that Steven was pointing at. "That's an odd looking man right there," he said. "Uh huh. And the smile on his face is more creepy," Steven added. "Well, I'm sure we don't have anything to worry about. After all, he may just be interested because of the size of the land." "Don't be delusional. Everyone knows the truth about this land, no one will be interested in it. He is only interested because you are. You have made a name for yourself here." "I don't want to believe that. Look, just allow me to do
"What?" Nothing made Levi happier than seeing the look of shock on Roberto's face. He did not believe what he had just heard."That's a big fat lie. There is no way that land has been issued to the public by the government," he resorted. "Oh is that so?" Levi said and brought out the document. After scanning through the document, Roberto got more angry. The angrier he got, the more excited Levi became. "This is fake. This document is fake. You did this by yourself." No one listened to him anymore. Everyone was shocked shocked and amazed at Levi's intelligence. He did more research than they did."Wow, this is amazing. You are really smart and good at what you do," they said.But Levi wasn't completely fooled. He knew that not everyone in the room liked him. After all, not everyone liked a smarty pants but he couldn't care less what they thought. He watched them as they discussed amongst themselves, shocked at the young boys behavior. The amount of attention and accolades that Le
Gilead came out from the bathroom, a white towel tied around his waist and a small white one hanging from his neck. He was busy whistling his favorite tune, Canon De Major. He kept whistling as he rubbed his body with lotion and got dressed for his evening stroll. His doctor had told him that he had to do everything he could to keep his heart beating properly. Gilead knew he was getting old but he didn't blame his heart condition on that. He blamed it on the fact that he had spent his entire life building a multi million dollars company. But whenever he sits down and thinks about what he earned from it, he couldn't help but be grateful. His eyes lit up as he heard the door ringing. He smiled because he could tell that report was coming his way. "Hello sir," Stephanie walked in."Yes, Stephanie. How are you?" "I'm very well sir, how are you?" "About to go for my evening stroll. Is everything alright?" "Actually yes. But you have a guest downstairs and he says it's urgent." "Al
"Levi!" They exclaimed, shocked to see him coming out of the car. Their eyes widen and they couldn't close their agape mouths.Levi paid no attention to any of them. His eyes flew to Brittany and the boy who stood before her holding flowers. "Levi!" Brittany finally got over the shock of seeing him in the car and his name slipped out of her lips. "What the...? How did you...?" She stammered. "What the hell is going on here?" Her voice finally cleared out allowing her to ask. Levi grabbed her waist and pulled her closer to him. "Is this boy bothering you, my love?" He asked. Brittany did not fully get over the shock of him driving a luxurious car. 'Did he steal it from someone? How did he get to be in possession of it?' This and many more questions filled her head as she looked at Levi and it made her unable to answer his question. "Brittany?!" Levi called out, bringing her out of her day dreaming and back to reality. "Sorry. What did you say?" As she smacked her lips. "I aske
They say in an uncomfortable silence for what felt like hours, just listening to each other breath. It didn't take long before Brittany got tired of everything and soon began to talk."I'm still waiting, Levi," she said with a tone of anger laced in her voice. "Uh, I know," Levi responded. "So then why are you not saying anything? Do we want me to hit you over the head with my purse?" Brittany had always suspected that something fishy was going on with her friend and she tried to figure out what it was. Everytime she got a bit close, she always managed to hit a dead end. It wasn't going to be like that anymore. This time she was going to get the answers she deserved. "Look, I just want to park somewhere so that when I start talking, you won't jump out the window because of fright and run away." Brittany chuckled. "Now, why would I do that? Are you a mafia boss or something?" She asked sarcastically. Levi turned his face towards her and narrowed his eyes without talking. The look
Brittany was dumbfounded. "Um, sorry but I am here with someone." She did not care much for other people intruding on her outings with Levi. He maybe lying to her but she still did not appreciate another person hanging around her. "Who is the idiot that left you all alone at a shopping complex like this?" "His name is Levi and I don't think he will approve of you hitting on me like this," she tried to defend him. "Please leave.""That Levi guy sounds so stupid and poor. Allow me to pay for your clothes. Allow me to take care of you." Brittany looked at him with anger burning in her eyes. She knew his type very well. They wanted nothing but to keep feeding their enlarged ego by getting everything they wanted. He felt pity for him. Most people that behaved that way mostly had a rough childhood while growing up. She took another look at him and saw the typical dressing style. His clothing spoke volume as to the kind of person he was. A rich brat who probably lived off his parents m
The saleswoman blinked twice. Her brain tried to understand what was going on. She couldn't fathom how a man as Levi could be talking to her in such a rude way. She took a moment to look at his dressing again. From head to toe, he was dressed in what she could only consider as rags and he had the guts to stand in front of her and tell her how to do her job. She had never been more insulted in her life!"What did you just say to me?" She asked angrily. "You heard exactly what I asked you. Is this how you guys treat your costumers?" "Well no but then again judging from your cheap and no fashion sense dressing, I can easily tell that you are not one of our costumers. So before I call security, please just get out." Something about standing up for the mall she worked in, defending it's integrity made the woman happy. She couldn't stop the smile that crept up her face when she realized that she was actually doing a real task. Levi hated it with everything he had. It reminded him of t
