As Milan stepped down from his car that morning and stood in front of his company, he couldn't believe what he saw. A flock of reporters had gathered with their gadgets waiting for Milan. “What the hell is this?”Milan asks to no one but himself, and suddenly, a reporter looks behind and notices him. “Over there! Milan Reyes has arrived!”The flock of reporters suddenly rushed over to where Milan stood while he turned around his car, trying to avoid them as he made his way into the company with his bodyguards surrounding him. “Tell us, Mr.Reyes, is it true, Mr. Brown suggested a merger?”One of the reporters yelled as Milan tried to make his way past the reporters that swarmed over them. “Why did you reject Mr. Brown's meger. Are you really down for war?!”“Is this a battle between two great companies?!”“Do you believe you will win? Tell us what you thought about Mr. Brown's interview?”“Will The Everest Company shut down with the rise of B.M Automobiles?”Milan ignored all thei
Milan steps into Emperor's Suite and is directed by one of the waiters to the private lounge Mr. Brown had reserved for them. Milan opens the two doors and sees Mr. Brown seated on the table drinking tea. Mr. Brown looks up at Milan with a cup in his hand and smiles widely. “Milan Reyes! Welcome”Milan makes his way inside and takes a seat, keeping a blank expression as he stares at Mr. Brown.Milan wasn't there to make friends with someone who was out to sabotage him. “I hope you like the location I choose for us. You know something about this place just reminds me of wealth, and I must say I'm proud to be among the wealthy people of society. Aren't you?”Mr. Brown chuckles and picks Milan a cup of tea. “I simply just came to hear what you have to say Mr.Brown the location would be less of my concern”Mr. Brown takes a sip of his tea and raises a brow at Milan. “Other concerns like the news and reporters going after you because of the rejected merger?”Mr. Brown didn't bother to
“Wow! Just look at those sales going up! It gives me so much joy”Mr. Brown chuckles as his secretary show him the graph of their sales rising. Ariel had once again delivered a plan made by Milan's company to Mr.brown and he had stolen the idea before Milan could make it happen. “This calls for a celebration!”Daniel walks into the office, and Mr. Brown's secretary excuses himself out. “Dad what's all the ruckus about? I could hear your voice from down the hallway”Mr. Brown smiled widely at his son, then got up to give him a hug. Daniel stood wrapped around Mr. Brown's arms, feeling awkward as he wondered what had come over his father. Mr. Brown released Daniel from his embrace and exhaled softly. “You see, Ariel let me in on another secret that Milan had planned to raise his sales, and I was able to launch other products, and they are selling out super fast! Turbo speed!”Daniel cocks an eyebrow at his father wondering when his father had decided to make plans without involving
Daniel couldn't sit still and do nothing about bringing Milan down. He trusted his father, but he felt he had known Milan more than Mr. Brown ever could. Daniel adjusts his face cap, hiding his eyes as he walks down to The Everest Compamy with two pizza boxes. He had posed like a delivery man to infiltrate Milan's company, but he could only hope to make it inside with the security guards who were already very aware of what he looked like. “Halt there!”Daniel adjusted his face mask to cover more of his face as he looked up at the security guard who frowned at him. They looked scary as they scrutinized his features quietly.“Delivery! I have a pizza delivery for…”Daniel pulls out a receipt that he had forged. “Mr.Milan Reyes”The security guards all looked at each other, then raised a brow at Daniel in suspicion. “Who sent for the delivery?”“I got a call from a woman called Miss Sofia. She made the order for Mr. Milan Reyes”Daniel spoke confidently, trying not to seem even a b
“Shit”Before Daniel could run and hide, the door is immediately swung open causing both him and Ariel to freeze in their positions.Daniel knew he was screwed so he hid his face underneath his cap to avoid the intense gaze of Milan. Milan stood at the door staring at both Ariel and Daniel who looked down sheepishly. Milan quirked a brow at Ariel after he had already caught Daniel. Both Milan and Ariel shared a look.“Mr.Reyes! What brings you here?”Milan looks at Ariel keeping a straight face.“What are you doing here?”Milan asked while sending Daniel a suspicious gaze. Ariel chuckled nervously. “It seemed like the delivery guy must have lost his way so I was just escorting him out”Daniel hid his face further hoping Milan wouldn't look at him so much. Milan let's out a heavy sigh putting up with Ariel's act. “Okay. But you both shouldn't be in here. The lunch break is over so you should get to work”Milan tried his best to sound as strict as ever like the boss that he was beca
Ariel steps out of her house unaware of the fact that she was being watched by Daniel. She gets into her car and drives to a mall to pick out her father's gift. Daniel picks at his fingernails as he waits at the front of the mall for Ariel. After a few minutes, Ariel emerges from the mall with a gift box in her hand and Daniel rushes out of his car blocking her way with a crooked smile. “Good morning beautiful”Ariel frowns at Daniel. “What?”She spat out rudely still remembering the move he had the guts to make at Milan's company. Daniel arches an eyebrow at her tone. “You're not happy to see me?”Ariel pushes past Daniel and proceeds to walk to her car. She had more shopping to do for her father's birthday and more guests to get him. Daniel was the least of her problems at that time. Daniel goes ahead to block her path again and she glared at him. “I have things to do. Move away Daniel”Milan who was driving past the mall to go to Ariel's house, stopped the driver and took a
The ride to the mall is quiet as Milan solely focuses on the road keeping a straight face. Ariel sends him a side glance from time to time without uttering a word. “What did Daniel say to you?”Milan finally spoke after minutes of silence. Ariel shrugs. “He was simply thanking me for saving his ass back then. He didn't say anything else” Milan nods. “That jerk so simply because he wanted to thank you he had to take you out for lunch and drop you off in his car? Isn't he getting too close to you?”Ariel didn't want Milan thinking things like that. She didn't want him to know that Daniel had made some advances on her as she could see in his eyes that he was starting to reconsider their plan. “It's nothing to worry about babe”“That man is dangerous. It's something to worry about. I don't like him getting so close to you like that. He does have a bad history with women”Milan places a hand over his eyes as if just realising his last statement. Daniel was a sexual abuser and he just
Milan makes eye contact with Ariel who sends him a knowing look. “Mr.Hilton, why don't we go drop off the gifts? We will be right back”Milan says quickly and grabs Ariel as Mr.Hilton nods and is quickly snatched up in a conversation by one of his guests and Troy disappears to make a call. Milan and Ariel find a corner to talk as panic fills Ariel's eyes. “What the hell are they doing here?!”Ariel whisper shouts while Milan gestures for her to stay calm as he remains calm himself. “This is unexpected but we would have to find a way to compromise. We can't have them knowing you're the daughter to Mr.Hilton”Ariel nods. “Yes! I would ruin everything if they found out. I mean my father was freaking wealthy. Why would I be working for some chump change that Mr.Brown will be throwing my way? Also why would I be working under you if you're not treating me well I could simply work in my father's company ugh!! Everyone here knows me. I'm going to blow this”Milan places a hand on Ariel'
