After the board meeting, Adrian strides away from the hall feeling so relieved. This was the first time that he was engaged in something this meaningful and yet he never thought that it was going to be this productive.The board after careful deliberation finally approved his proposal and not just the fact that it was approved, and he was also assigned to carefully supervise the production team while it was ongoing, that way he could be certain of its success.“Adrian!” His father called out to him while he was striding through the hallway that leads to his office, he came to a halt as his gaze met that of the older man.“Yes, Father.”“I must commend you for doing a great job today” He patted his shoulder, the older man's eyes were beaming with so much excitement, and yet all Adrian could do was nod his head as he took in the praises.“Thanks, Dad”“You should be careful with this project and I need you to be aware that it could make or break you here. Everyone does understand that t
Mr. Smith was just about to leave when Adrian recalled the conversation that he had earlier today with Kelly about Finn and then he asked.“I heard that Finn just recently acquired a new car, is that true?” Adrian asked as he watched the man freeze there for a while before he cracked his throat and turned to meet his gaze, a fake smile clearly on his face.“A car, come on we both know that is not possible, how in the world would Finn have the money to acquire a car, you were the one that just helped me with my company and the series of problems that I was having, how then can he acquire a car?”Mr. Smith forced out a chuckle as he tried to wave away this discussion.“I was surprised when I heard the news, but also glad that things are going better than they used to be”“Yes, although things are going much better, they have not improved to such. You have nothing to worry about but Finn is not even close to acquiring a car when he has no job yet”“Alright then, send my regards to him an
The Elite club has always been the dream of most people in the city, knowing that they enjoy so much luxury and privileges which was why Mrs. Smith could not miss out on the opportunity, for her, it did not matter if she had to murder several people for this strange man called Jason, all she thought to herself was that it was worth it since she walks finally able to join the Elite club.Mrs. Eleanor Smith is dressed in a floor-length sleeves gown in a rich, jewel-toned emerald green. The gown hung her curves in all the right places and no doubt that anyone who had come across her could tell that this was indeed a sophisticated gown.She walks over to the receptionist whom she spoke with on the phone and after her Elite access card is handed out to her, Mrs. Smith elegantly walks up to a group of women seated at a round table and joins them while they all look at her stunned.“Oh! Pardon my manners, my name is Mrs. Eleanor Smith and I just recently joined the Elite club so I was hoping
Mrs. Smith has not been used to this luxurious life but as soon as eh I was granted membership to the club, she was so excited that she made extra efforts to look elegant and was not aware of the difference a fake and real jewries which was how she ended up going over there with fake jewries.The women seated at the table were so engrossed in other things that they had failed to notice the earrings and necklaces she wore until Harper who was just seven years old spoke of it.“Come on boy, you should not be rude to your elders and besides, my Jewries is not fake, do you know that they cost me a fortune”“Then you must be pretty dumb not to see that you have been cheated!” He explained with all innocence in his eyes that the ladies could not help but giggle.“Come on Harper, do not be rude to the lady” Amelia tries to call him to order although she is fully aware that the damage has been done, a deep frown spread on Eleanor's face. She was filled with humiliation that despite how much s
Walking back to the ladies, their eyes were glued at her with a curious expression staring at her. “Have you gotten it sorted out ma'am?” The waiter asked and even up to this point, he was still trying to be as polite as possible.“Well, the thing is, it did not go too well, how about I pay up ten million dollars first, and then by tomorrow I can come to settle the rest of the bill?”She suggested and Grace could not help but chuckle. “Are you for real, you come here all fake knowing that you are not up to the standard of this club, and yet….”“That is not true, most times I can afford this, but I only came here with one of my credit cards and since you all had drunk the wine, don't you think that you should help out in such a situation?” Eleanor suggested again and Sheryl scoffed sarcastically. “You are so unbelievably! You were the one who suggested buying us each a bottle of wine even while we kicked against it and now you are going to make us pay, it is not like we are not capab
As soon as Avery and her Aunt were both in the car, the driver drove off, and right then, Sasha who was fuming with so much rage finally turned to Avery.“What was that madness you just displayed out there, do you pick the money up from the ground or do you just have so much to waste?”“Come on Aunt, how can you all just stand there and watch her being humiliated like that knowing it was the first day of her joining the club and there was no way that she would know how things work for her? You all spend more than that daily, the least you could do was help her”“Why should we, she came in and was acting all elegant like she was richer than all of us put together, she was carrying a Hilton purse worth eighty million dollars which I can't tell if she borrowed it, she sat there like she was some kind of special and made orders for five bottles of the most expensive wine”“Five bottles?”“Yes Avery! She should have known her place since this was her first time here, but rather she wanted
Adrian and Klein both stood outside the coffee shop that Eva visited every day at noon, they had been there earlier before noon and yet Adrian could not place his hand as to why she came here or what Kelvin was up to.“What are we going to do, are we just going to keep sitting here and staring at the coffee shop when we both know that you have a lot of work to do”Klein complained after sitting in the car for a few minutes. “Klein go in there and order two black coffee, monitor the environment, and tell me if there is anything out of the ordinary, we are going to be comparing it to when Eva comes in”“Alright, I agree that it is better sipping through a cup of coffee rather than just seated here and doing nothing.” He grunted no doubt that he was not buying the idea of spying on Eva, and could not tell why Adrian would even bother to go to such length.It was just Adrian in the car now and while he was patiently staring out and tapping his finger, he noticed a woman dressed in a sophi
Walking back to the car, the lady in the car had cried out her eyes thinking that she had lost her bag and all of its contents, but when she saw Adrian coming back, her eyes popped out in surprise that she had to blink twice to believe that she had not been deceived.She quickly hopped out of the car, a smile slowly spreading through her face. “Oh my God, you were able to retrieve my bag?'' She was indeed overwhelmed by both surprise and excitement.As soon as Adrian handed over the bag to her, she did not say anything else but went ahead to first open the bag so that she could confirm its content. Once she was certain that everything was intact, he let out a long sigh of relief.“What is your name, young man?”“It is Adrian”“Adrian I am Emma Shawn and a renowned designer, most of my sketches are in this bag and they are the reason I came back to town for a show, if this were to get into the wrong hands, then that means that I have lost everything that I worked all my life for. I am
