Aiden's fingers finally stopped moving on the keyboard, and he slowly lifted up his gaze from the screen to Mav. " Boss....." Mav lowered his head and stepped back subtly in a nervous manner. He didn't know why, but Aiden's gaze just freaked the hell out of him! He really felt terrified! " Mav, is that your new duty now?" Aiden asked calmly, as his brows formed a straight line, shifting all his attention now to his assistant. " Boss... " Mav called Aiden again, his gaze still facing the ground, and he tried not to answer Aiden's question. Aiden was impatient, and he twisted his lips, " Answer me." His voice was soft, but deep, full of authority. " No sir!" Mav hurriedly denied, shaking his head in a negative manner. He didn't want to be on Aiden's bad list. Aiden just stared at him but said nothing. His silence was enough for Mav and those who really knew him already understand what his silence means. " I will leave now." Mav said with shaky voice, bowing at the same
Stella tilted her head slightly to one side and straightened her hair properly, with her long delicate looking fingers. She clicked her tongue with her teeth casually. " I think you are more aware of this better, so I won't say much. But I think it is time you let them see how competent you are."Aiden was amused slightly, but he still kept a calm refined expression. " Stella, why do you care so much about my reputation?" He asked in a very cool manner, wanting to see Stella's reaction. " Why do I care about your reputation?" Stella was stunned, but she quickly recomposed herself, as she doesn't want to lose herself anymore in front of Aiden. Immediately, her face turned icy and distant. " Who told you I care about your reputation?" She gave a throaty chuckled and curled her lips upward coldly. " Don't think too much. This is an office, and you are the head of this company, so it's only right for me to think about your reputation. I am only fighting for the reputation of thi
Sam said, with a dead serious face, the moment everyone was seated. They all nodded, and soon the private meeting started. ...At this time, it was already close to the evening, and this was when Stella decided to go back to the Lucius Villa. It didn't take long before Stella got home. On getting to the villa, Stella was startled to meet lady Irish outside the villa, and she raised her brows in surprise. " Is something wrong?" Stella asked worriedly, almost immediately she got down from the car and locked the car at the same time.Lady Irish quickly moved closer to Stella's side, with an ugly and anxious face. " Is everything alright?" She ignored Stella's question, not bothering to hide how worried she was. " What do you mean?" Stella frowned, wondering why lady Irish inquired such a thing. Again, Lady Irish ignored Stella's question, and she rubbed her palms together. " Is everything alright at the company?" She was getting impatient and couldn't wait to get an
" Nothing," he said with a cold shrug and continued his movements. This startled Sam and Mav, and they glanced at each other awkwardly. " Errh......Boss....what do you mean?" Sam rubbed his neck nervously as he asked Aiden, even though he knew Aiden might not tell him anything. This time, Aiden didn't stop walking, but he raised his right index finger up, till he got to the car and finally turned to face Mav and Sam. " Have you gotten the evidences?" He was referring to Sam, who felt really embrassed at this moment. " Yes boss, I already did, and it is ready now," Sam answered with a nod, as he tried to conceal his embarrassed face, but Aiden already noticed it. " Good!" Aiden turned away from them indifferently. Instantly, a bodyguard came to open the car door for him, and he stepped in gracefully. Mav and Sam followed suit, even though Sam was disappointed about Aiden not giving him any information. Though, he was already used to Aiden's indifferent character, but
Cole and Andrew suddenly felt something cold and piercing, like a new dagger on their chest. It was really uncomfortable, and they glanced at each other, wondering on what was going on. They both scrunched up their face but said nothing, as they didn't want anyone to suspect anything. It was better to hide it, than to arose suspicions.Finally, Aiden shifted his gaze away from the two dickheads and faced everyone present in the hall. Aiden clasped his hands together as usual, as he rested them on the big table in front of him. " Since everyone is present in this meeting, let's start now!" He said, his voice was audible enough and circulated the whole hall. This was when everyone immediately sat straight, adjusting themselves and planning to hear what Aiden has to say today. " Yesterday, an hidden record that could possibly bring down this company was discovered, and I called a meeting to announce it and promised to take care of it. So today, I want to tell you all that
" Silence!" A deep bossy voice thundered out, that instantly made everyone to halt in whatever they were doing, and they all turned their heads towards Mav." Is there no respect for the chairman anymore?! How audacious of you to act like he is not present!" Mav's voice was strong and scary, as it reached the ears of everyone present, and they subconsciously cowered slightly. " Audacious you say?" A shareholder stood up and cracked. " This person almost put the company into a bad state, and you are saying this! Can you blame us?! Can you?!" " Yes, and who are you to address us in this manner?! Do you even know your status in this company?!" Another shareholder joined the previous one, as they both attacked and savaged Mav with harsh words. " Mav, or whatever you are called, don't forget your position in this company, and don't think we can't do anything to you!"" You are clearly stepping on our faces by uttering that!"The shareholders stood up one by one, as they poi
Seeing this, Andrew smirked inwardly and thought there was definitely hope for him. " Everyone, let me tell you a secret now! This......." He pointed to Aiden, as he snorted with irritation. " Aiden is not a good boss and a good person! I know the reason why he is doing this and it is because I failed to do what he asked me to do! "" And what did he asked you to do?!" Stella crossed her arms on her chest as she now focused on Andrew, who wore a fake facade, acting like he was innocent. Andrew looked at everyone and sniffed, not too loud. He liked the attention that he was getting and the curious faces he was seeing. Taking a deep breath, he decided to spit it out once and for all. " Some days ago, Aiden called me to his office and told me to do something for him. He asked me about the company's financial record but I told him the record is not with me but with the head of financial department. Then, he instructed me to get it which I eventually did but I didn't expect what
Mav cursed under his breath and too a step forward, wanting to teach Andrew a lesson but Aiden gave him a stop signal. With gritted teeth, he went back to his former position, feeling so disappointed!How could a mere brainless person like Andrew have the cheek or gut to exchange words with Aiden! Does he want to smell his ass?! Aiden weirdly smiled in a slow manner but it was a smile that was full of chill. " It seems you are more stupid than I thought but don't worry. You are a living proof, it is possible to live without a brain, since in your case they are actually nothing!" Maybe this was really time to show them what he is capable of doing! At this moment, no one said anything and they just silently pay attention to the battle of words that was happening between Aiden and Andrew. If Andrew was an animation, one could really see how was boiling with rage at this moment cause possibly smoke might be emitting from his ears and nose! Even his so called useless brain jumped
" Then, it about what?" Lewis stood up calmly and stared deep into Hudson's eyes. Both people actually possessed the same eyes, as they both had hazel eyes. This was when Hudson's eyes flickered with something unknown, and he suddenly noticed something. " Who are you?" He asked again, this time with a solemn expression, finally calming himself down. Lewis also noticed this, but he sighed and lowered his head. " I am your father." He answered curtly. " How? I told you my father is dead!" Hudson still refused to believe Lewis and shook his head negatively. " Please, I hate lies!" " And so do I!!" Lewis snapped with a red rimmed eyes, as he lifted up his head. " Do you think am okay with lying to you and everyone?! I didn't die Hudson, it was all fake. It had a reason, and at the time, I couldn't trust anybody, but am sorry you suffered for it. It was all my fault, I am sorry." " What do you mean?" Hudson got confounded, and he blinked his eyes multiple times. " I didn't d
" What's going on?!" Startled with the sudden silence, Henry yelled as he turned his back and stopped what he was about to do. " Boss, we don't know what happened. He just suddenly went quiet and limp," the body guard carrying Hudson answered unhurriedly in a calm manner. Henry looked down at the immobile Hudson, and he shook his head. " So?" He scoffed and snorted loudly. " Do I look like I care? Fuck! I said throw him out!" The bodyguards weren't expecting this, but they had no right to say anything. They just quickly did what Henry told them, scurrying away, with the immobile and quiet Hudson. *Baam* " That's where you belong!" The bodyguard, who carried Hudson, threw him away like a garbage and stepped on him, before he turned away. The moment the bodyguards left, Hudson stood up and dusted himself slowly, with a gloomy look. He was devasted and couldn't believe what he just went through. He wanted to think, but his mind was already numb. Too much grief had overw
" The boss asked you to bring his suite now to the top floor!" Hudson's brows relaxed immediately, and he nodded gently. " Okay." He was familiar with the person at the other end of the line. Before he could hang up, the phone was snatched from the person at the other end, and a familiar voice rang inside Hudson's ears. " Bring the thick cap when you are coming! I will be needing it within an hour, so be fast! I don't want my babe to leave, or you will be dead for that!" *Beep beep* The call was hung up immediately. Hudson could only stared at his phone screen in a dumfounded manner. He couldn't believe his boss again. This was the habit of Henry, and Hudson was already used to it. He knew his boss was having a new chick again by now, and he was the one task with the responsibility of bringing or carrying the Jimmy hat. " Will my life ever be better?" Hudson wanted to cry so hard, but he couldn't. His life at this moment was really a sore spot for him. There were times h
Just then, something unanticipated and gruesome occurred! " Boss!" Mav frowned, the moment he saw a big shadow over them, and he immediately reversed the wheel without thinking of anything else. Instantly, Aiden who was pressing his phone also noticed something was amiss, and he became alarmed. Looking up, he saw a big truck, that seemed to have lost it break, and it was moving with a very fast pace towards them. " What's going on?" Cole sat up straight and widened his eyes out of shock and fear. " It coming towards us!" He yelled, with a trembling voice, and he turned to Mav. But Mav was also confounded at this moment. He was trying to manoeuver the car away from the path where the truck was coming, but it appears as if they were stuck. " Boss, we are stuck! The road is blocked behind us, and the path is too narrow! What are we going to do?!" Mav was frantic, but he still tried to bottle it up slightly. But of course, no one wanted to die ....... " Someone should do something!

Junior was displeased upon hearing this, and she wrinkled her nose. " What kind of stupid task is that?" She thought and immediately felt like voicing out her thought. " But why us boss?" She couldn't bring herself to ask that, so she just changed it into another question. Aiden looked up at Junior and noticed how displeased she was, but he cared less. " Because you guys are capable and people I can trust. If you know you can't do it, then you are free to leave." Aiden gave an answer to Junior's question and even threw an option to the two people standing in front of him. " No, am okay with that, boss." Chris stepped forward and agreed with the job Aiden gave to him. To him, he was comfortable with any job from Aiden, as long as he would be close to Aiden. Honestly, that was enough for him. Junior even became more annoyed and displeased. Now, she had no choice but to agree also, otherwise she won't be able to bear the consequence. " Junior, you have 10 seconds," said Aiden
Aiden didn't answer the leader of the gun men and just ignored him. " Marvelous boss, please accept me! I am sorry for my misdeeds! Such won't occur again! You don't know how much I admire you! I really admire you so much, please take me under you! You won't regret it!" The leader immediately ran after Aiden, before Aiden could walk out of the whole room totally. " Hey, get back!" Mav stepped forward and pushed the leader away just in time! " The Marvelous doesn't deal with people like you!" The leader halted and tried to balance himself. Upon hearing what Mav said, he became unhappy and sighed, lowering his head. " What! Are you kidding me?! Who the hell are you?! You can never be the Marvelous boss!!" The pretty scarred man, yelled, disagreeing with what Mav said, and his thought. It just not possible. No one even bothered to glance at the scarred man and just ignored him like a piece of thrash. " Give me a reason why I should take you under me?" Aiden stopped walking and
Just then, " Ah!!!!" The scarred man yelled with pain evident in his tone, and he gritted his teeth! " I decided to start with your left wrist........" Aiden said, as he crushed the scarred man's left wrist with his foot and shrugged before moving to crush the right wrist also. " Ahhhh! It hurt so much! Make it stop!" " I should make it stop? Is it painful?" Aiden acted innocent, and he tilted his head sideways. The scarred man nodded but couldn't say anything. By now, his forehead was drenched and covered with sweats. In fact, he was so greatly uncomfortable and just wished for the pain he was feeling to stop. Aiden lifted his foot from the scarred man's wrist, and the latter instantly heaved a sigh of relief. But in the next minute, a shrilling sound echoed loudly again! " My leg!" The scarred man shouted and shook his head! It was indeed unbearable for him. Aiden didn't care and just moved to crush two of his feet! Just like that! Everyone felt the pain the scarr
Just then, " Ah!" Stella held her hair, as she rushed downstairs and almost lost her balance. And she yelped. This caught Aiden's attention, and he looked up towards her. This time, his expression flickered into something unknown. " Aiden!" Stella called out, immediately her eyes meet Aiden's own, and they both stared at each other for some seconds, before the assistant dragged Stella forward. " Ouch! It painful!" Feeling hurt, she cried out and shut her eyes, as tears slipped down from her eyes. Seeing this, Aiden felt something stinging his heart, and he frowned deeply. He hated this! He hated seeing his woman in pain! He hated seeing his tears! He hated how helpless she looks right now! Aiden took a step forward, but he was stopped instantly by the commandos that was called by the scarred man. " Get lost!" Aiden looked away from those commandos and walked forward to meet Stella. " It seems you don't know where you are?! Who do you think you are to act like the
