The Billionaire's Trials 060: I Brought Lunch Instead
"How much time do I have left before the next meeting?" "About an hour sir. We should take a break and have lunch!," Jake said in the last part, a little bit too happy. Leo snickered. Isn't this secretary of his a little bit gluttonous? "Alright then. Order something for me. I'll be in my office," Leo turned to leave. Jake looked deflated immediately. Aren't they going to a fancy restaurant today? He sighed and looked down at his notepad. 'Guess it's just me and my poor lunch box today,' he whined inwardly. He didn't expect that Leo would turn back to him and say,"Order whatever you want to. It's on me." Then he left. Jake did a quick, happy dance as he followed his boss. He silently asked for forgiveness to the one that had packed a healthy lunch for him because he was going to discard that today and devour the fancy lunch instead.*********** Leo looked up and put the file in his hand aside when the door opened after a loud knock. He sat back and loosened his tie. He was
The Billionaire's Trials 061: Can You Not Touch Me!?
Even though the question wasn't such a difficult thing to answer, sweat formed on Mr Kian's brows. Isn't it just to negotiate? What's the fuss all about? Before he could respond, someone knocked and walked in. Both Mr Kian and Leo glanced at the door. "Boss... The next meeting is starting in a few minutes. We should head to the conference room now," he informed and Leo nodded. "Give me just five more minutes. I'll be there. I believe Mr Kian has something intriguing to tell me," Leo answered as he turned back to his guest. He even raised his hand up to indicate the number. Jake nodded and exited the room. "Then Ceo, how much of the profit share do you want exactly?," Mr Kian didn't dare to mince words as soon as the door closed. If he loses this chance, he might not be able to get one. Leo drew an invisible circle on the table and answered,"Eighty percent." His voice was so low that the man opposite him almost didn't hear but when he did, he was speechless. Believe me when
The Billionaire's Trials 062: Just Two Days.
The conference room turned silent as everyone looked at the doorway to see the person that walked in. When they saw a furious Scott and his secretary following closely behind him, they looked away and continued their discussion as if his presence didn't matter. "So I assume we all agree to electing him as our next Ceo. He has shown...," A loud bang on the long, rectangle shaped table cut off the man's words. Everyone gave Scott an irritated look but his focus wasn't even on them. He was glaring at the man that had dared to announce the election of a new Ceo. "Mr Joe, I know you have never liked me or agreed to my position but what right do you have to lead the others against me and elect a new Ceo in my absence!," Scott yelled at the man angrily. "Keep your voice down," Mr Joe however didn't react. He maintained a comfortable posture on his seat and asked Scott in a lazy tone,"Who are you?" Scott had no words for this cause he clearly wasn't expecting this question but he so
The Billionaire's Trials 063: Everything Is Wrong With It!
His eyes scanned the table and his mouth twisted in a smirk. Just as he'd expected, the old man didn't drop the file. Seems like he is more stubborn than he had originally thought. Or wasn't his offer good enough? It would be fair if he as the only and highest investor gets the bigger share so why did the old man not agree? Leo shrugged and walked to his seat. Well, that's his loss. "Boss!," Jake ran in and stopped to take in a deep breath. He panted hard as he dropped the jacket on the sofa placed in the office. Leo didn't even look at him. He just sat on the chair and picked up a file. Jake displayed a fake, angry look. "Boss! You are much more cruel than I thought. You didn't even stop for once even though you knew I was chasing after you," He sounded aggrieved. "It's not my fault, you have short legs," Leo mumbled silently. "Huh?," Jake pretended not to have heard what he said. Leo dropped the file and finally looked up at him. "What do you want? Isn't your office the
The Billionaire's Trials 064: No One Would Want You!
Leo stood by and watched Heaven roll her eyes. The brat really has no respect for her mother at all. He looked at her clothes again and looked away. He turned to leave but once again stopped when he heard her reply. "Mom, isn't this habit of yours getting old now?," Heaven sounded annoyed as she asked. "Why do you have to make such a fuss like I am doing something wrong? Most people my age are out there, enjoying lives at clubs without their annoying mothers breathing fire down their necks every second." The silence that followed was unexpected so Leo turned around to observe Victoria's expression. He wasn't expecting the heartbroken look on her face. He glanced at Heaven. Some people her age don't have a mother to fuss about their behaviours yet she's got one and she isn't even grateful. Heck! She even has a loving grandfather but doesn't know how to cherish them. "Heaven... You and I know what people your age do. They don't waste time away at the club with useless friends.
The Billionaire's Trials 065: But Now...?
"That brat huh!? She really knows how to make one furious. Her mother and I are always trying to look out for her. What if they take advantage of her naivety? She can't make use of the fact that no news about her has been uploaded yet. Once her innocence gets tainted, does she think those vultures won't swing to action and make it known to the entire world?," James paused and coughed. Leo hurriedly gave him another cup of water and he gulped it in one go. "When that happens, it will hurt her the most. She'll be the one suffering for her stubbornness and ignorance," James suddenly stopped again and looked at Leo who was sitting down on the chair without saying a word. The young man was just quietly sitting down and listening to his complaints without saying anything. James secretly sighed. If only his granddaughter was as sensible as this godson of his, would he have to worry about them so much? "I'm sorry," Leo looked up when he said this. He looked genuinely confused as he as
The Billionaire's Trials 066: He Is My Cousin-brother.
Leo pushed his seat backwards when he finished ravishing his dinner. He walked out of the dining room just as two maids walked in to clear up the dirty dishes. They greeted him with a bow and a familiar pink colour in their cheeks. He nodded to their greetings and didn't waste any time on climbing the stairs. He was almost halfway up when his phone vibrated. He brought it out and checked the message displayed on the phone screen. He arched his brow when he saw that it was an unsaved number that sent the message. He stopped walking and clicked on the phone to read the message,'Hello cousin, sorry I couldn't say goodbye. When you have time, perhaps you can come over to visit me at the capital.' Leo smiled and hurriedly texted back,'Where exactly is this 'Capital'?' He kept his phone back in his pants pocket and walked up. It didn't take a minute for his phone to vibrate again but he got to his room first before checking the message,'Well, I'm not actually in the capital ri
The Billionaire's Trials 067: How... When... Why?
She was quiet for a long time just watching the rain hit the closed hospital windows mercilessly. It really doesn't rain much in San Francisco but when it does, it rains heavily. She remained so silent for an unbearable period of time that her bodyguard had to call out to her,"Miss...?" That was when she turned back to him and he was a little bit startled to see the hollow look on her face. She tried to sit up and he hurriedly walked forward. He pushed a button by the bedside and the bed automatically rose to a sitting position so Mandy was able to sit up without making a move. He then stood back and waited for her instructions. She finally opened her mouth to say something. Her voice sounded so cold that even him could feel the anger in it. "So they gave him two days to solve the crisis?," He gave her a quick nod. She suddenly laughed. "Two days is too much of a time to waste. They shouldn't have even given him any chance at all. They should have just snatched that posit
