James seemed ready in his black suit. He had submitted the paperwork for the application at Eclipse Company. The man had received a reply two hours after he applied for the position.
The man was still on the first floor of the Lawrence residence. Lara walked up to James, who looked dignified in his black suit and AI glasses.
"The CEO of Eclipse Company is your brother-in-law. Why don't you ask him for a job?" Lara asked.
"He certainly wouldn't like it nor approve of it. Applying as usual is the right thing for me to do," James replied.
"Right, they'll never know you work there," said Lara.
"But what about the other staff? They might know that you're the CEO's younger brother-in-law," Lara asked.
James said goodbye to Issac. The man with the half-shaven head smiled like he had been waiting for James' arrival.The man left Dr Issac's office, raised his head, and watched the research and development department staff. They went straight to work as soon as James looked at them.A few people briefly glanced at the man, mostly the women in the place. They didn't expect the man to meet with Issac directly.It was certainly a problem for them because they didn't meet the old man directly when they came to apply.That's what made them all think that James was a special person. They couldn't wait to find out how good he was at his work.James arrived in the lift and headed straight to the 1st floor of the building, "Prime."[Prime Activated][Is there anything you need, Mr Lawrence?]"How fast can you do object recognition?" asked James.[The object recognition system embedded in my algorithm reaches 96%. I have billions o
Caroline entered her room, followed by James, who walked behind her. She was busy tidying up the bed she had just used to make love with Arthur. James took off his long black coat and hung it on the hanger. Not only that but also the white shirt as well. "I-I'll explain everything to you," Caroline said, sitting on the edge of the bed with her head facing James. James, who was now only wearing a white shirt and black trousers, began to turn his body around, returning Caroline's gaze coldly. "It was an accident," Caroline replied. "I was drunk, and he took me home. After that, I don't remember anything else," Caroline explained. "I'm sure he put something in my drink, but I failed to prevent it," Caroline said, looking at James with concern. The man standing before Caroline smiled broadly as he placed his pistol on the dressing table. James walked over to Caroline and crouched down right in front of her. His right hand reached forward, wiping away the tears that wouldn't stop fa
To prevent unwanted events, James chose to leave the place. Margaery and the others could only silently watch James' departure towards the exit gate of Rosewood. There, James' black sedan was still parked. Seeing James' arrival through the rear window made the bodyguard immediately get ready.The car door opened, James immediately got inside, "We're leaving."James' bodyguard nodded. The man immediately drove the car away from the venue, heading down the route to Lawrence's residence, which was far from Rosewood.During the trip, James tried to contact Amelia using his AI system. Prime managed to connect his system with her personal cell phone.Amelia picked up her ringing cell phone, watching the unfamiliar number call her. Amelia picked up the call and heard the familiar voice of James."Oh, I thought you were a cheater. I'll buy you a cell phone so you won't call me using Prime anymore!" Amelia complained."I'm not interested in that. I want to talk to you about something," James
After talking with Amelia, the woman had to return to the office to discuss many things regarding her cooperation with the Benstar Company. Amelia said goodbye, unlike James, who still sat accompanied by a dish of chicken salad that James had yet to finish. "They'll probably come home at night. So, you don't have to worry about them being home this afternoon," Amelia explained. James cleared his throat as he continued eating the ordered food, "I see." "Let me know if you need any other help," Amelia said. The woman walked away from James, carrying a tote bag in her hand. James watched as Amelia returned to her sedan, leaving the café with her driver heading towards the city center. It didn't take James long to finish the chicken salad he had ordered; it was gone in seconds. Now, James would refocus on his mission; his nearest goal was to improve his knowledge of the pharmaceutical field. "Prime," James called, simultaneously activating his AI system. [Prime Activated] [Do you
"You disappoint me, James!" snarled Alexander.Alexander threw James' body violently to the side, hitting the bookshelf and sending thick books falling onto James' body.The burly man left James' study, leaving his son helplessly on the floor.The door to James' study was slammed loudly by Alexander, attracting the attention of everyone in the place without exception.Ruth, who suspected her husband had fought with James, immediately walked away. Selena chose to sit quietly in the living room, reluctant to interfere in Lawrence's family affairs.As the elevator doors opened, Ruth saw Alexander in the elevator with a sharp look on his face. She already knew that Alex had done something terrible to James; the two had no convers
The next day.Today was James' first day as a staff member at Eclipse. He was already dressed in a white shirt and black trousers, without a suit.The guards began carrying James' stuff to Ruth's lakeside home as the move was underway. Alexander didn't know James was moving, as he had left for his office in the morning for an important meeting."Are you leaving?" James asked.Ruth asked because she saw her son walking across the living room dressed up. James stopped his walk, heading towards his mother, who remained in the room, appearing to be waiting for someone."I'm going to work," James replied.The old woman smiled broadly, stood up, and moved closer to James. Her wrinkled hands rubbed James' shoulders and neatened his shirt."Your job is pretty dangerous. So, be careful," Ruth pleaded.James smiled, taking Ruth's hand gently. From that touch, he could sense that Ruth's love for him was much bigger than Alexander's.<
Unwilling to be noticed by Martin, James went in the other direction, separating himself from the line for lunch. Jayden, who saw James leave, became confused. He called out to the man and asked where he was going."I need to use the restroom," James said simply.The man continued to walk towards a room in the corner of the cafeteria. Martin seemed busy with his tablet, paying no attention to James's presence.James stood before the basin, washing his hands with his eyes focused on the mirror before him. There were only two closed toilet doors; the remaining three were open.He would leave the place if it was safe enough for him. Jayden and Hannah were having lunch without James. The man kept turning his head around, looking for the new staff member."You're his friend, aren't you?" Jayden asked Hannah."You could say that," Hannah replied."Is he a weird guy?" asked Jayden, squinting his eyes."I've known him for a while. It w
The party lasted about four hours. Jayden, the man who suggested the party, collapsed first after drinking two medium-sized bottles of beer.Caroline and Tobias had left two hours ago. They left at the same time in Tobias' car, and James watched their departure from the third floor.Iris noticed that James, who was sitting before her, kept watching the two people leave. She spontaneously asked James innocently."Is there something wrong with them?" Iris asked."Nothing. I just admire those who were born lucky into a respected family," James replied."With the wealth they have, they have no reason to be unhappy, right?" asked James, smiling at Iris.Iris sighed, looked to the side
