The phone barely rang for a few seconds before the person at the other end answered. “Hello, future mother-in-law,” the voice at the other end of the call greeted with reverence. Who else could it be but Boris, the Harrington heir. Tina frowned at the sound of his voice; everything about him made her blood boil. If she could be this annoyed hearing his voice, she might even kill herself if they were to live together as husband and wife.“Boris, I need your help,” Mrs Doe requested quickly. “Help? Mention it mother-in-law and consider it done. Even if you want a star in the universe, I’ll take a rocket right now and pluck it for you,” he said firmly, his voice full of pride.“I have a problem at Aurora Diamonds, could you come over?” she requested slowly, lowering her voice to sympathy.“At Aurora Diamonds? If you want all the Jewelries in the store, shop all of it and wait for me with the bills,” he said boastfully.“No Boris, it’s something else. I’m with Tina right now and we real
Boris led the way and the group followed from behind across the street to the store, confidence surging in all of them. Boris walked straight up to the two security guards standing at the store’s entrance.“Hey you!” He called gesturing at the guards. “I want to see who is in charge, right now!” he instructed with a frown.The security men gestured at him and the group behind him puzzled. “Who are you? And why do you bring this mob with you looking for who is in charge?” One of the security men asked.Without hesitation, Boris walked up to him and slapped him across the face. “How dare you talk back at me? Go in and bring whoever is in charge, right now! If you demand on knowing who I’m it may be the last thing your ears will have to hear,” he spat coldly, his eyes a mixture of intimidation and threats.Of course the security guard was scared to the core; any one bold enough to slap and threaten him in front of the store must be extremely powerful, even more than the store owner. In f
“What the… You broke my phone…” The manager exclaimed stunned. But he was met with another thundersome slap. His chin had never been put to so much pain like it was on that day. Four powerful slaps across the face within the space of few minutes!“You should be thankful I broke just your phone. Another word from you and I might even break that jaw of yours,” Boris spat remorselessly.The manager was stunned by Boris arrogance, his eyes were a mixture of confusion and fear. He barely knew anyone in the city who would raise their voice at his boss, Boris did not only cursed him, he threatened to wreck down his store as well.“Wow ma’am!” one of the ladies exclaimed. “I must admit, your son-in-law is indeed a powerful mogul. I’ve never seen the store manager look so terrified. He is the one always making the threats, now look at his he looks like he could pissed in himself anytime soon.” The woman disclosed.A smug smile flooded Mrs Doe’s face, a sudden surge of pride overwhelmed her. Sh
“What nonsense! Why would he mention you to me. You’re just insignificant,” Boris said quickly, his confidence fading.Don Maxino frowned the more, his eyes glowing with rage. “Why would he not mention me to you, after all he had done to me. That bastard for a father of yours,” he spat in fury.“Will you let go of my collar already, you’re not significant enough for my father to mention you. What makes you think he’ll remember a lowlife like you?” Boris said rudely, but his voice trembling.Don Maxino slapped Boris so hard across the face that he might need a dentist sooner or later. "Why would your father forget me when I'm the reason he's so rich now? Or is he too ashamed to mention me to you?"All of a sudden, Boris face was covered with cold sweat. He thought Don Maxino would be cowering in fear after discovering he was Harrington’s son but it turned out he was even getting into much trouble after all.“I can see that coward for a father of yours did not teach you any manners nor
Boris was almost living his skin; he was overwhelmed with fear and he panicked terribly. He could see the man’s murderous determination through his enraged eyes.“You should let me go, my dad will not spare you if he learns about this,” Boris managed to force the words out of his mouth, his tone trembling.“Your dad?” Don Maxino sneered. “I bet your dad will be dead scare to come save you from me. Because he knows I’ll kill him on sight, he wouldn’t dare come before me,” Don Maxino disclosed with a frown. "Lies! My dad will come as soon as he hears I'm in trouble, and you'll face his wrath when he gets here," Boris said confidently, though his body still trembled."Alright then, why don't we test that? Call him and tell him I'm about to kill you. Let's see if he dares to save you from me, though I doubt he will. But if he does, I'll have my full revenge by killing both of you," Don Maxino said coldly.He then shoved Boris backward with such force that he landed on his buttocks. "You
“Oh look Mrs Doe, your son-in-law has already peed in his pants— he promise to help us get back our money but it seems he is the one that needs the help now. Poor fellow, he shouldn’t have messed with Don Maxino if he knew he wasn’t so Influential. Oh my, we shouldn’t have put our faith in him, I thought he was someone from a very influential family. It turned out he is just another average kid with some dirty guts,” one of the protestants said in a low tone, her voice tinged with disdain.“Oh my gosh, I can’t believe he was bluffing all this while, what kind of a man piss on himself after speaking with so much authority. Don Maxino will show him no mercy, he even had the balls to slap him on his face,” another chimed in.Mrs Doe was ashamed, she thought Boris would have the store owner return all the protestants money and they will sing her praises for having such a powerful family. But right at the moment her reputation was a stepping mat in front of the protestants.“You people mis
Tina panicked as Don Maxino’s eyes remained fixed on her, demanding an answer. She considered revealing that they had met at a cafeteria while she was with August. However, she feared that Don Maxino might become enraged remembering the incident from that day—when he had been forced to break his own son's hand. Tina was still bewildered by why Don Maxino was so fearful of August and complied with all his demands.The best option to think of was to deny they had not met before. “No—no We’ve not met before, I think you are mistaken,” she stammered.“She? There is no way you could’ve possibly met her before. You are surely mistaking her for someone else,” Boris snorted with disdain. “Her father is not as significant as mine, more reason why her mother should take my punishment. I have an idea, why don’t you spare me and I’ll go talk to my dad, He will definitely listen to me and return all the money he backstabbed you and refuse to share with you thirty years ago,” Boris said slyly.Don
****At the Gibson’s grand mansion, August and Mr Kane were seated in the living room. Mr Kane was enlightening him about the things he was yet to know about the Gibson family; their businesses, the people acquainted with the family, his grandfather, parents...As they discussed on, Mr Kane’s phone shrilled. He frowned and ignored the phone completely when he realized who was calling. But in as much as he ignored the call, the person at the other did not stop calling.“Your phone is ringing, Mr Kane why won’t you answer it?” August asked intriguingly.“Young master, the call is not worth a response in your presence, it is no one of significance. It is Mr Harrington, he only calls when he is in help and needs help. I wonder what trouble he is in now. But I’ve given him enough help, he’ll have to deal with this one by himself,” Mr Kane snorted dismissively.Harrington? Was that not Boris’ last name? Boris used his family’s last name to brag in every twenty minutes, why would August not
