The Billionaire's Trials 011: It Won't Hurt To Have Fun Sometimes.
Jake gave him a piece of paper that contained all the information he had been able to gather about the owner of Winslow's suites. Leo collected the paper and almost asked him, does he get a paper for every single thing?'' As they walked out of the conference room, James completely forgot, they were suddenly called back,"Leo! That old man is a tricky fellow. So you have to be cautious if you want to progress with the contract." Leo turned to give the man an apologetic look as if to apologize for momentarily forgetting about his presence and also forgetting to bid goodbye before leaving. James gave him a smile that showed that he understands. He glanced at his wristwatch,"You should go now. He hates tardiness." Leo nodded and walked out of the room briskly. James however remained in the room for unknown reasons. ********** The car pulled up in front of a magnificent, high building that could almost be described as a skyscraper. There was a bold sign that displayed the name of
The Billionaire's Trials 012: Mr Winslow.
"I mean how should I address you? Should I call you Leonardo Greene or... Leonardo Paige?," Mr Winslow made sure to emphasize the word 'Paige.' Leo clenched his fists tightly, thankfully the table was able to hide this from Mr Winslow. He gave Mr Winslow a small smile,"Sir... Five minutes is over. Shall we get back to business?" Jake honestly wanted to commend his boss then. His words didn't show his reluctance to answer neither did it offend Mr Winslow in any way. 'The boy is indeed a sly fellow like I had predicted,' Mr Winslow thought, giving Leo a cautious look. He raised his hand and signaled to the lady standing behind him, holding a file. That is probably his secretary or personal assistant. She walked forward and presented the file to Leo. Her eyes linger on him more than it should. Leo ignored her as usual and turned to the file. He'd already read the information Jake wrote down for him on their way here so he understood the vital parts of the contract. He read the f
The Billionaire's Trials 013: But Boss, We Are Both Responsible For This!
"Boss... You know what he will do right?," Jake asked quietly as soon as Winslow's suite building slowly disappeared from behind. Leo looked up and stared out of the car window. He didn't react or say anything for a while that Jake was beginning to wonder if he ever heard him. But then he nodded,"Yes. The next thing a man like him would do is to call my grandfather and complain to him. I wonder why grandfather would ever want to cooperate with him in the first place." Jake thought about it. He also wondered why the chairman would choose Winslow's suites of all suites to cooperate with. Leo suddenly looked up with a strange look on his face. "Jake... Aside from this contract, do we have any other pending or ongoing contracts with them?" Jake brought out a pad like an electronic pad this time not his usual notepad. He browsed through the contents of the pad for a while before turning to Leo. "Yes sir. We have two other ongoing contracts with them that will be completed soon. We
The Billionaire's Trials 014: A Meeting With Mr Hilton.
Leo heard what Jake said but he decided not to say anything because he figured out what Jake said is true. Both of them got into the company. Leo did not hesitate to look around. “You are welcome sir.” A lady walked towards him with a bright smile on her face. Leo turned to look at her and from the way she was dressed, she must be a staff of the company. “Please follow me sir.” The lady added. Jake looked at Leo and both of them walked with the lady. While they were walking, Leo looked around the company and admired how everything was in order. Each time Leo visits a company, he never hesitates to look around. They stopped in front of a door which seemed to be the CEO office. The lady knocked on the door, but there was no response. Jake looked at Leo. Both of them were wondering why no one responded. The lady knocked on the door again but the moment she knocked, a woman walked out of the office. And she looked really angry. Leo looked at Jake and smiled. He understood why the l
The Billionaire's Trials 015: A Meeting With Mr Hilton (II)
Leo had no other choice but to just sit. He pulled Jake to have a seat also. They were still serving the food on the table. Leo raised his head to look at Mr Hilton then he forced a smile. “I just knew you would love this," He told Leo with a cunning smile. Leo returned the smile without a word. While smiling, he turned to look at Jake. “If you had not ordered so many dishes in that restaurant, we would not be thinking of how to eat all these.” He whispered to Jake. The latter wasn't expecting such from Leo. He looked at Leo, still trying to understand why he is pinning the blame on him. “You never complained.” Jake replied, almost in a whisper because he couldn't confront his boss. Leo heard him and thinking about it, he realized no one is to blame for how much they ate in the restaurant. So he didn’t say anything else, he just lowered his head and looked at the food on the table. They were so much that Leo couldn't even figure out where to start from. “We hope you love it s
The Billionaire's Trials 016: Mr Gold-Digger
Leo turned to look at Jake and returned the phone to his pocket. Jake tried glancing at his boss sideways to observe his expression because whatever Victoria or Heaven told him made his mood change. “Uhm.. Sir, are you…?” “I’m fine.” Leo interrupted Jake immediately. He's started to accept the fact that Victoria and Heaven may never accept him so he made a mental note at that moment to learn how to endure their insults. Jake smiled when he heard his boss response. “Looks like my boss has learnt how to endure her insult without getting mad.” Jake noted inwardly while looking at Leo’s face. Leo adjusted his tie and sighed. He felt a little bit suffocated just thinking about Heaven's harsh words. If things were how they used to be and he was still the popular, wealthy Leo Paige, Heaven will not refer to him as a gold-digger. The word hurts him so much because he doesn’t consider himself as one. But the thought of having his revenge to get back everything he'd lost made him feel
The Billionaire's Trials 017: Pretend To Be My Boyfriend.
“Oh my, did I just say that?” Heaven asked herself shamefully. She never wanted to sound so needy while asking for his help. He'll! If she had her way, she wouldn't even think about talking to the bastard. “I just fucked up. He must be feeling like a boss right now," start feeling like my boss now.” she mused unhappily, imagining how happy Leo must be feeling now because she asked him for help. The thought of it made her feel really stupid. She fell on her bed with the phone still on her ear and finally decided to tell him what it was without wasting time. “What is it?” Leo asked her just when she concluded to tell him. She started feeling upset again because the fact hit her hard that she's just requested help from someone she hates so much. Heaven suddenly sat up, thinking of how her mother would feel if she learns that she'd asked for help from someone termed a 'gold-digger'! 'It’s not like I care.' Heaven sounded like she was trying to convince herself that she does not c
The Billionaire's Trials 018: I'm Sorry But I Can't Help You.
“Are you serious?” Leo asked Heaven in a surprised look. He couldn't believe his ears. What Leo couldn’t figure out is that, is she perhaps joking or being serious? “Yes I am.” she answered him in a rather calm tone. She suddenly became calm and careful with her words. He would never have believed that something like this would have ever happened. He was about to say yes to the request when he suddenly remembered that this is his chance to make her suffer for insulting him and ruining his mood. He, Leo Paige… I mean Greene doesn't turn down an opportunity for revenge! “I can’t say yes just like that.” Leo mused inwardly. The thought of her begging him soothed him. She sounded desperate so he felt this is the right time to strike and make her pay for almost… completely ruining his mood. Heaven on the other hand relaxed because she knows that Leo wouldn't reject her request after all he is where he is today because of her grandfather! “Who wouldn’t want to be my boyfriend? He s
