Jonas looked between the three of them. He rubbed his sweaty palms on his thighs, realising that the customers in the bar were already focused on the scene. He didn’t realise they had piqued so much interest. People mumbled behind his back, though he couldn’t make out what they were saying. He knew that his reputation as a mogul was about to be destroyed right here. Why hadn’t he just gone on his way after they jammed at the door? He could have waited to plot with the gangster again and take Ron down for certain. “There’s no need to be like that, Ron,” Jonas let out a nervous laugh. Ron smiled coldly. “You know, I wonder who looks like the beggar right now. If you claim to have so much money, then doing that shouldn’t be a problem for you.” He could have overlooked it for anyone else, but Jonas knew that would never be the case now. His fists clenched at his side as he glowered at Ron. This was payback. He could feel it. “It was just a harmless joke—“ “Mr. Jonas, you are was
The thought consumed Ron and it was only broken by Adina’s orders to Victoria.“Stay back, one fuck-up going to the meet is enough for me. I don't need two.”“There's nowhere to stay and you are with the key to the car,” Victoria protested.“Do I look like I care, because I really don't.” Her stomach crumpled in its own protest. Adina winced harder than before.Ron came closer to her, placing his hand on her shoulder. Adina shrugged it off. “Remove your filthy self from my person.”The automatic doors opened up to her and she walked in leaving Ron behind. Ron turned to an ashen Victoria and gave her a wink. “You'll be fine and I'll kill it, I promise.”Ron met up with Adina before the elavator shut him off. He and her spent seconds in silence.“Who are we meeting today, all you've done is keep me in the dark about the person.” Ron spoke up.“I do not owe you anything, just be on your best behaviour, if at all you have any of that in you,” She snapped back at him.Realising it was a lo

“I'm not sure I'll be able to sustain the company much longer. If I take any longer to find an investor, I will lose everything! Everything that I've worked so hard to build will go down the drains, washed away forever.” Ron watched as his wife sank down on the ottoman, oblivious to the fact that he was standing right behind her, listening to every word she was saying. He wondered who it was on the other end of the phone though. He could hear the intense worry in her voice, could see her face in profile, the look on her face like she was being dragged down. He disliked that she had to go through all of that with something he could fix in a minute and he was going to fix it for her. Even if he couldn't reveal himself at this moment. He started to walk towards her to comfort her. “I know, I know about the suggestion that I could…get together with a potential partner who would help me with this.” Bella said into the phone, her hand coming up to massage her forehead as she sighed. Ro
Ron scrunched up his eyebrows as he read the message again before he discarded it. He started walking home, humming silently to himself. Today was the birthday party of Bella's grandmother and as such all family members were required to be there. Even if it was just for the amusement of the family. He quickened his footsteps and rushed home. Bella and her sister were already dressed and ready to leave. Bella was dressed in a deep v belted sleeveless dress while Sena was dressed in a shirt dress that looked more like underwear than a dress. “You guys are ready?” He asked in suprise. “Yes. We didn't think you'd be going, it's not as if you bring anything to the table.” Bella replied. Sena stood behind her putting on her Jewellery. “Will you guys wait for me? I just have to take a shower and change.” Ron asked taking off his shoes as he went to the bedroom. “Of course not. The party is supposed to start in an hour. We don't want to be late you know.” Bella replied and started t
Kate rushed over to us with a box of tissues and starts dabbing on Victoria's clothes “You are going to pay for this you half witted fool.” Adina screamed. Other patrons in the restaurant had started casting curious looks at us, as they probably wanted to know what was going on. Ron stood by the side with a satisfied smirk on his face as he watched the spectacle unfold. Kate dabbed gently at skirt before Adina snapped at her. “You're smearing it all over me, you idiot. Ugh, give me that.” She snapped and snatched up the tissues from Kate. “I'm so sorry ma. Let me help with your skirt.” Kate apologized and grabbed some tissues from the box. “I told you to stop touching me , you're making it so much worse. Where did you even come from?” Adina screeched and shoved Kate away. Kate stumbled back. Adina grabbed another tissue and made a show about wiping her large breasts. “How much does it cost?” Ron asked Victoria, folding his arms together. “You might have to take out loans jus
Ron crossed his arms over his chest as his narrowed gaze fixed on the men pledging allegiance to him. They were just a bunch of fools, who didn’t have anything better to do. He turned to the manager. “Does it hurt a lot? I will help you get that cleaned in a bit.” She shook her head and nodded, all responses to his two different questions. He focused on the thugs again, who were still kneeling with their heads lowered. Once men like this pledged their loyalty, they would do whatever their boss wanted, even if it meant ordering them to jump into fire. “Stand up and leave,” Ron finally said. “Master, is there anything you’d like us to do?” He thought long and hard about it. The Freckles would no longer have customers because of the scene they had just displayed earlier. It would scare people off. “Market this place, then.” Ron made a thinking face, holding up the leader’s chin. “I want you to be in charge of doing that. What’s your name?” “Tiger,” the man said and Ron made a fac
