A couple of hours after the perfect selection was unapologetically done by Raphael Gauthier. He found himself in his office and had his eyes glued to the different files submitted by his secretary.

Importantly, some winery companies have already sent in proposals for The Lion Winery Industries to join their committee in branding and expanding the champagne root of Paris.

Raphael Gauthier had on his desk over three winery committees that requested The Lion Winery Industries membership.

Which has him thinking about the in-depth intention of those proposals. Was it truly to make a staunch name for Paris champagne heritage or because of the court case that The Lion Winery Industries won which would help promote the winery committee and trigger profound publicity?

With the desirable News headline: The victorious embezzlement court case champagne manufacturer; The Lion Winery Industries has voluntarily sworn her allegiance to the Edmond Paris Winery Committee!

    Raphael Gauthier paused in motion and stared at Mrs. Manon after her last statement.Mrs. Manon had a slightly widened inward question of what she could have said wrongly.“Do you mean the interviewees have been physically available before 2: p.m.?” Ralphael Gauthier distinctly asked. “For real?” he added to his question.Mrs. Manon unleashed a beam before responding. “Yes Sir. Before 1:45 pm they had already arrived,” she politely responded.Raphael Gauthier nodded his head in delight. He presumed some interviewees would be late so he could have some grounds to question their seriousness in obtaining the applied job. However, hearing the facts triggered more interest in the incoming interview.“Where are they?” he promptly asked while paying meticulous attention to how the receptionists attended to the waiting guests.“Sir. They're in the inner lobby hall. Should I send them in right away?” she responded and gently questioned.Raphael Gauthier glanced at his wristwatch. It was alread

    Raphael Gauthier maintained a steady glance at the five interviewees to deduce what their responses would be.He was a bit curious to know why such fine well-kept personnel would be unemployed regardless of their esteemed experiences in their work endeavors.Consciously, the interviewees didn't want to be disarrayed in rendering responses and subtly wanted to know who should go first.Raphael Gauthier understood why they didn't promptly respond and nodded his head.He stood from his seat and stepped aside from them to make an indistinct call for a few minutes. When he was done. He got back to his seat.“Miss. Albertine? May I hear your thoughts on my question regarding your former workplace,” he calmly questioned.Miss. Albertine gently cleared her throat before responding. “Five months ago. My ex-fiance needed me to quit my job. He insisted such jobs ain't befitting for his standard in a woman. He maintained he'd cater for all my basic needs that I'd need not to ever work again,” she

They didn't know why Raphael Gauthier instructed them to join him on a walk.But would they not obey?Raphael Gauthier unleashed a beam in his heart as he took a few steps away from the two interviewees and enjoyed how they seemed somewhat confused. He understood the uncontrollable urge for their reactions and didn't blame them either.In less than ten seconds the three were already in the hallway heading to the fifth floor. Raphael Gauthier purposely didn't indulge the elevator being the fact it's just the next floor ahead.Time for a little exercise.As usual, he encountered some guests who didn't hesitate to offer their greetings, and being a responsive person he didn't think twice in responding accordingly.From the first breakout of Stamford Luxury and Suites new owner till the point that the owner was once a part-time room service agent triggered the interest of new guests to patronize and see if it would be w

Colette and Miss. Albertine stood. He winked at them to join him as well.Miss. Capucine without being told led the path. She took the three interviewees to different Royal Suites rooms and knew the next room Rachael Gathuier should be inspecting.“Sir. This is Room 513. It was taken care of by Miss. Alizee,” Miss Capucine spilled without being asked. She knew it was only a matter of time before such information was required by the hotel owner.Ralphael Gauthier gently ambled into Room 513. The three ladies joined him behind in the inspection. His eyes were meticulously at different corners of the room even at the slightest places where one would easily overlook.He found himself in the master's bedroom to take a proper glance at what Miss. Alizee has done. He remained spe

    Raphael Gauthier winked at Miss Capucine who hastened to his standpoint. He duly informed her of the impromptu meeting which would be in less than fifteen minutes.He needed her to assist Miss. Manon to coordinate with other staff and management on the meeting given the fact no one was notified earlier.“Also have the other three interviewees at the lobby head towards the second floor,” he instructed her further. Miss. Capucine intermittently nodded before sprinting off to do as instructed.Miss. Albertine and Miss. Colette could feel a different energy as some of the staff were hastening back and forth which wasn't the situation a couple of minutes ago.Raphael Gauthier walked up to where they stood and uttered. “Follow me,” the two interviewees didn't act surprised anymore.

    Questions! Questions! Questions building in the hearts of all the management staff except his allies who already deduced a strange aura before the meeting commenced that morning.The management staff were baffled by the managing director who had congratulated and encouraged their efforts thus far and also made remarks on their sales growth. He's still not happy. Huh?Who wouldn't be confused?Pierre smiled in his heart as the time for the real news to be unleashed was already in place. Raphael Gauthier stared at him and Pierre nodded his head.Raphael Gauthier already perceived that his allies had already grasped he wasn't in his usual aura but decided to keep mute about it. But as he stared into Pierre's eye he knew that he had painstakingly studied his demeanor.‘There is more about Pierre I need to uncover. He's much smarter than my allies. There's something unique about him,’ Raphael Gauthier acknowledged that for the third time right from that very first day, his path crossed wit

Celine and many others feel The Lion Winery Industries shouldn't consider the possibility of participating.The bigger question is when would The Lion Winery be fit for such a world-class winery contest?Raphael Gauthier remained calm as well as he rolled his eyes at the faces of the management staff and enjoyed how concerned they were with his last question.Pierre on the other hand applauds Raphael Gauthier's question in his heart.

    CHAPTER 195: THE CONFESSION

    “I don't care if I die the next minute or get arrested and pay for my crimes. As long as I divulge what has been hidden for decades, then my part has been done,” Hugo mouthed with a short gasp breath, his face gripped with sweat as he held onto his step-older brother.All along, Raphael had presumed his younger stepbrother was bluffing about having information to spill. It seemed like he had finally gotten his attention.“Really? You got any information?” his brows raised in keenness.Agathe waved at the medical personnel who sheepishly departed from the room. They had already overstayed. It's family time!“Yes, I do, dear brother…”“I know none of my words would change the past and the evil I've done to you, which led to the death of your mother, banishment, and many others, including sleeping with your ex-wife,” he spilled those hard words out. And once again, the ugly past flashed before Raphael’s face.Agathe strode towards him and patted his shoulder; she understood how painful i

    CHAPTER 194: A DRY COUGH: A NEW BREATH

    For the greater good of his power and what it believes in, Hugo Lambert should be saved by his older stepbrother despite the pains he has inflicted. GrandLord Raphael Gauthier, in a state of pain and anger, understood that and had to do the needful.‘Hugo you've fought so hard against death. Time to come back to us,’ GrandLord Raphael Gauthier communioned with the deteriorated state of Hugo Lambert.He believed he could hear his words. One of the containers had a well-prepared honey with herbal ointment in it as his inner power whispered what he should do.Agathe Lambert muttered a thousand prayers in her heart as her hands shook in fear. She might not be a great fan of Hugo from inception but she wouldn't want him dead either. The medical personnel stood in disorientation as they beheld the unprecedented movie being played before their eyes.GrandLord Raphael Gauthier signaled Agathe Lambert, who assisted in slightly opening Hugo's mouth to enable him to pour the herbal medicine insi

    CHAPTER 193: A FLASH OF THE PAST

    Agathe Lambert was struck in a state of slight confusion and vibrantness. She quickly strode towards where Hugo Lambert had laid for over a week as his health deteriorated. The medical renowned doctors followed behind to witness what would unfold sooner.It wasn't a pretense that the medical experts had little or no hope of what the GrandLord could do differently. They engaged in indistinct communication amongst themselves while their faces were etched with doubts, disbelief, and slight confusion.Grand Lord Raphael Gauthier stood face to face before his stepbrother. He exhaled deeply with his eyes intentionally closed while he trailed his oil-soaked right finger on his chest towards his abdomen back to his chest and throat.Agathe Lambert instantly wondered what Raphael's right finger was doing on Hugo's chest. She somewhat feared that he might want to avenge what happened to his late mother. The medical personnel maintained their indistinct conversations with their heads and eye gou

    CHAPTER 192: HE’S HERE!

    She knew GrandLord Raphael Gauthier was quite an intentional human and wouldn't mouth those unexpected words if he didn't mean them. Nonetheless, she couldn't control how astonished she seemed.For a moment she gave up on GrandLord Raphael Gauthier ever believing her about Hugo Lambert or what he had to tell him. She believed the past ugly incident would cloud his judgment on believing her.“The more time we waste the less chance he has to survive the poison,” GrandLord Raphael Gauthier quickly spoke out.He promptly offered Agathe Lambert his right hand as an aid to lift herself off the ground. He went ahead and offered her a white handkerchief to wipe off her tears while she made efforts to stand.The driver had his mouth slightly opened at how he thought he'd soon head back to the mansion or the office. However, his boss had other plans for the day.“Why the sudden change of heart? I could swear you would have zoomed off without looking back,” Agathe Lambert hinted as her eyes popp

    CHAPTER 191: RECONSIDERATION

    He tutted his lips even more in disagreement and displeasure with his lips curved in disbelief and contempt. He shook his head more often while anticipating what Agathe Lambert would say next.She wasn't making any single sense with her words about Hugo Lambert's poisoned state and his request to speak with him. Agathe Lambert temporarily went speechless while glancing at him and other gatekeepers who could grasp the building conversations.“Drop this trick to get me to heal him 'cause that's not happening. He caused the death of my mother. You wasted your time in making me come over,” GrandLord Raphael Gauthier blurted out while taking a step backward.He felt there were no more words left unsaid with his younger step-sister and got to head back to the mansion or, better still, see how Pierre was handling business in his absence.It was better than being at the wrong time at the wrongest time. Driving from the mansion on Agathe Lambert's request seemed like a waste of time.“Good day

    CHAPTER 190: HE GOT SOMETHING TO SAY?

    “Several medical professionals have conducted several diagnoses, but he's none responsive to their treatments,” Agathe Lambert, after a few moments, uttered more words to establish clarity.She had anticipated to bark at her immediately when she uttered the last words or even an immediate response which he didn't. Hence, she had to delve back to words that would build stamina to whatever his thought organs were entertaining.GrandLord Raphael Gauthier intentionally kept mute and steadily set his sight on her believing she got more words unspilled. His eyebrows were raised more with his two hands placed across his waist while trying to make sense of where Agathe Lambert was driving.“Hugo?” he somewhat mouthed with his eyes blinking. “Poisoned?” His last words followed with a question. “By who?” GrandLord Raphael Gauthier promptly inquired with a somewhat calmer tone. “When?” he went further in striding towards the path of questions.Questions engrossed in inquiries which was all Grand

    CHAPTER 189: AGATHE'S SKEPTICISM

    GrandLord Raphael Gauthier hastily mouthed with his eyebrows raised in building annoyance. He kept his sight steadily on Agathe Lambert striving to make meaning to her last statement. He knew she wasn't joking but needed a form of clarity in her speech.Agathe Lambert vividly remembered all that transpired between Grandlord Raphael Gauthier and Hugo and should be the last person to make such statements when the GrandLord is concerned.Agathe Lambert was somewhat confused about what to respond with as her gaze quickly dropped off. She reactively took two steps backward in perplexed thoughts. GrandLord Raphael Gauthier was swift enough to understand his younger step-sister's last action. He positioned his hand in an akimbo posture while still glaring at her.“I left my mansion for Hugo? That betrayer? You're kidding huh?” GrandLord Raphael Gauthier mouthed once more but his voice heightened this time.Still maintaining his body posture, he took one step forward in search of a response f
