When those words left her mouth fearing that they might want to kidnap her again, I rushed to the door.I stopped when I saw who was at the door."Mike, what are you doing here this early?" I asked as I furrowed my brows in confusion.I thought he should be at work.Why is he here?"Who is this?" He asked, gesturing to the girl."Forgot about that for now , I will explain later, come inside ,so she can lock the door." Mike hurriedly came into the apartment and she locked the door.I just realized now that I didn't even ask for her name, I will remember to do that later.Mike walked into the apartment and was in between me and the girl, he looked at me then at the girl and came over to where I was standing and hung his hand on my shoulder and pulled me closer as he whispered into my ear."Who is she? I didn't know you were wild, she's young, you shouldn't bring girls back home." He whispered and I removed his hand from my shoulder and gently pushed him away.Seriously, why can't he just
"Where is my money?" The muscular guy with a mustache and bald head asked me.He was holding me on my collar, as he pushed me inside my apartment and the other guy nonchalantly walked in and slammed the door shut.One would think they came to kill me ,as if my neighbors would even care ,if I died today.I grabbed his hands and pried his hands off my collar and straightened out my clothes.I glared at him."I told you never to come to my apartment to confront me." I reminded him of our agreement,he failed to keep it and the bald guy burst out laughing ,as his friend behind him just scoffed."He's even making requests, when he is owing us." He sneered at me."You must be insane, I can kill you now and leave here and no one can do anything about it." He threatened with clenched fists and I sighed.I don't know why I even thought making a loan from loan sharks was safe.I have had quite an eventful week ,so I haven't been answering their calls. That's why they showed up in my apartment.
No matter how badly a woman treated me, I guess I was still too nice.I rushed to her side and I asked if she was all right and she turned to me and blinked her tears away."I am fine." She mumbled.I held her by the hand, as I helped her stand up and then I bent down to pick up the stuff on the floor and out back into her handbag.There was a fashion design book on the floor along with her things and she drew different clothes with the models wearing it.I think she is a tailor and an artist because her drawings are so detailed and beautiful.I helped to pick everything up and put everything in her handbag."Are you alright?" I asked her after helping her put everything in her handbag.She dusted off invincible dust for my dress."Thank you very much for your help." Her soft and gentle voice replied and I raised an eyebrow.She has a baby face, round and squishy.She is so calm and collected, so I wonder what she could have possibly done that made that man treat her this way.She tuc
I watched as she was really excited and thanked me non-stop for my help.I told her that I trusted her work, we exchange phone numbers then I told her I wanted to be co- owner to her business, to which she accepted immediately, I think she was so happy that someone actually wanted to invest in her work, that she wasn't thinking of anything else and just agreeing to everything I say.I decided to invest $300,000. With that money, I was sure she could rent a shop and at least buy some materials she can use to sew some clothes. We should start small first then we can go upwards from there.Since I worked at a law firm for many years ,I still had the contacts of some lawyers that worked outside the law firm I was fired from.I asked if she had a lawyer ,so that she could call him and we drafted a contract."It's your money so I think you should bring a lawyer, I don't mind being a co-owner." That was her reply.I don't know why she was not able to call her lawyer to come down here ,but
Gray is powerful, I wonder how I can befriend him?Since that was settled.I decided to go to Mike's apartment and spend some time with him. I can sleep over at his apartment, because coming home today was not on my agenda.I don't want my landlord or nosy neighbors to annoy me.I got myself ready and headed to Mike's apartment.I was glad that Mike was home when I went there and he welcomed me with open arms."I am so sorry that I didn't come back yesterday. I spent the night at my girlfriend's face and I just came back this morning." He told me and I smiled."It's fine, it's actually a good thing that you didn't come, if not you won't have seen me at home." I told him."Did you go somewhere?" He asked as he gestured for me to sit on his couch.We sat down on the couch and I told him about how I met Samantha, however I didn't tell him the business and money I invested.I trust Mike, but I don't know how to explain where I got the money for.Mike said I did the right thing by helping
When I was resting in Mike's guest room at night.The system screen popped up.(System notification)( Seventh task: Revenge is a dish best served cold)(Reward:$70,000)I stared at the screen.It didn't even give me ideas on how to accomplish it.System: how should I accomplish the task?(System notification)(Hints: Splits the money in half)(Do you wish to proceed?)(Accept/ Reject)I pressed reject and clicked my tongue in annoyance.Such a stingy system,it can't give anything for free.Revenge?Does that mean I should get my revenge on those who offended me?Hm?Is it one person or two?I think it should be one, I sighed.But who?I smacked my lips together, as I tapped a finger on my lips.I should forget this and think about it tomorrow, when I am well rested.The next morning before leaving Mike's apartment, he informed me he was going to propose to his girlfriend soon and told me he would be planning the proposal and won't be available for a while."Is that okay with you?" He
Since my plan failed and I didn't get notified by the system that I completed the task.I decided to head back home since there was nothing else I was doing here.I gave the woman back her phone and took a cab back to my apartment.Samantha called me in the afternoon to tell me how everything was going fine and kept me updated on how she was spending the money I invested.I was thinking about who else I could get revenge on, but the next day ,when I was watching the news , I knew that I didn't even need to get revenge on anyone else ,because what I wanted worked.On the news , my ex Boss, who fired me for no reason, was all over the news and he was arrested for harassing the females in the firm. He was fired by people in a higher position.He was being sued to court and his wife was divorcing him and going after half of his property.Wow, that is the best revenge I could ask for.I thought that woman was with her husband for money ,but I was wrong.Thank goodness that the world has wo
Gray's birthday party that I was invited to was the talk of the whole country and everybody wanted to go to it.I looked it up and I heard that a lot of celebrities were going to go for it and people were wishing that they could get an invitation.I looked at the invitation card lying next to me on the bed.I guess that if I want to become a big shot, I need to mingle with those that are wealthy and influential.Since the birthday party was in two days time, I needed to get ready.I stood up and looked in my closet, the only thing I found there was worn out suits and shirts, my shoe was even looking dirty and worn out. It needs some work done to bring back its shine.I can't go to that party dressed like a homeless person.These clothes are the ones that I normally wear to work and they show evidence that I have not changed them in the last 4 years ,because I spend my money on Linda and her family.If I have all this money in my bank account and I can't even treat myself to nice clot
