The walls were made of glass. However, it was special glass that was completely see-through from the inside but as for those outside trying to look into the office, all they would see were blurred images and figures.Miss Charlie knocked on the glass wall and then said "We're here Sir! I'm bringing the young Master in now"Miss Charlie pulled the door towards herself, exposing what the inside of the office looked like without the blurring effect of the glass. The first thing Anthony saw on the other side was Mr. Rose Dana, standing with his arms spread wide open and a huge welcome smile."Come on in Master Anthony, I've been waiting so long for your arrival," Mr. Rose Dana said as he took over from Miss Charlie and guided Anthony to his office desk.There was the office chair on one side of the desk which faced the door and as for the other side of the desk, there were two visitor chairs also made out of premium leather but they were nothing compared to the other."Which one should I
"Are you sure about this Mr. Dana?!" With his head still lowered and facing the document, Anthony flicked his eyes to Mr. Rose Dana and asked."Very much so Master. Take this as my show of loyalty to your goals and if I'm being completely honest, everything I've made over the years belongs to you" Mr. Rose Dana grinned, carrying a pen from a rack on the desk and dropping it in front of Anthony."Huh?" Anthony questioned with a tilted head, placing the document on the desk and leaning back into his chair."You're twenty-two years old are you not Master Anthony?" Mr. Rose Dana asked."Yes I am, but what does that have to do with anything?" Anthony Asked with a confused stare and creased forehead"Do you know what else is also around that age? It's important that you do Master Anthony" Mr. Rose Dana asked and Anthony went on to think hard about what the old man could be referring to and in time he realized."That's almost as long as when you first appeared and started decimating the busi
Unbothered by the fact that it was someone else's office that he was about to go into, Benjamin pulled the door open without knocking or even being permitted to come in."You should rest easy Mr. Rose Dana, all that nonsense they aired on the news last night is completely false. My people are already on it and everything will be smoothed over within the week" He said as he walked in, turning around to close the door which meant he hadn't seen who and who were in the office yet.Once closed and still facing the door, he said "Thankfully, you bought a majority of the shares the minute they entered the market, and even though the other buyer is a complete mystery, hopefully with your shares and mine we can continue doing business together" Suddenly, Benjamin took in a deep breath and then huffed, tightening his grip on the aluminum door handle. He was trying to give himself a boost in confidence for what he was going to say to Mr. Rose Dana next.It's one thing for him to have confidenc
Anthony who had been keeping quiet all this time and allowed Benjamin to do what he wanted, waiting for the right moment finally made his move.He grabbed Benjamin's wrists and started to squeeze them with all his strength.He might have been lenient earlier when they were both outside, but this time Anthony was being serious. It was time Benjamin knows what was going on and so he squeezed Benjamin's wrists until they started to make some snapping sounds."Ouch! What the fuck! Stop that you asshole—" Benjamin exclaimed, groaning and wincing in pain but Anthony kept on, interrupting Benjamin when he finally had something to say."Sorry to say this to you Oswald but this company no longer belongs to Mr. Dana, it's mine now," Anthony said with a malicious tone of voice.He had been waiting for this moment after the promise he made outside."What?!" Benjamin exclaimed from what he heard, grimacing and going down on his knees from the pain of Anthony's grip "You're the owner of what?!"Ant
Anthony grunted, not knowing how he should react to this news but then looking at Mr. Rose Dana and how enthusiastic about this he was being, he could only shrug and sigh in concession.He leaned back into the chair "I trust you so do as you wish Mr. Dana. Making my presence known to my cousins now is as good a time as any" Anthony said, giving Mr. Rose Adana the go-ahead and Mr. Rose Dana became even happier.Mr. Rose Dana walked out from his side of the desk, walked across Benjamin's distraught body then stopped in front of Miss Charlie.Mr. Rose Dana said "You'll be coming with me too. This isn't just for the Midnight family but also for the people of Polaris and the world at large. They should know that my daughter is now the chairwoman of their favorite company"Miss Charlie's heart raced, smiling from ear to ear as she bowed her head to Mr. Rose Dana. Suddenly, letting loose of her emotional control, she dashed and hugged him.For the split second that she hugged her father she
Inside the elevator, the two secured men who were grimacing, annoyed at hearing Benjamin's crazy ramblings did what they could to hear it less and so they both looked away from him.His rambling had been consistent since they left the last floor but started to reduce and sound more coherent when they got halfway down the building.Going through the second floor, he finally stopped."Huh? Why am I in an elevator?" Benjamin asked himself as his senses came back and then the security who realized that what he said made sense both looked at him."Hey, am I also going crazy, or what he just said kind of made sense to you?" the security holding on to Benjamin's left side asked."Yeah, it did! Do you think he's snapped out of it?" The one holding on to Benjamin's right side asked and Benjamin who felt numb all over his body looked at them one after the other."What are you two talking about?" he asked looking confused as to who they were before lowering his field of vision and seeing that th
Immediately after Mr. Rose Dana’s announcement was over, all the reporters packed up their gear and rushed out of the scene, returning to all the news companies they work for.They were done with the live broadcast but their editors-in-chief still needed them to provide additional information about the event that wasn’t caught on camera and they wouldn’t be able to do that if they aren’t present in the meeting.This was a required step because, in this business of theirs, the first to bring out the most efficient news story always had the eyes of the public which in turn brings more money for the media they represent.“That was a great speech Sir, you never disappoint with whatever you decide to do” Miss Charlie said to Mr. Rose Dana while they both stood outside by the entrance of the building.They were watching the vans that the reporters came in drive away as fast as they could under the speed limit.“Thank you, Charlie,” Mr. Rose Dana said then suddenly, Miss Charlie’s smiling fa
"Don't mind this buddy, just a security measure after some idiot brought a gun and shot in here a month ago. Now we're required to do this by the city even after it's been a week since this place opened up again" said one of the security guys who used to be one of the ticket takers back when the incident happened.Anthony grunted, realizing that it made sense for this to be happening then he gave his phone to the guy there so he could pass through the metal detectors without setting off the alarm and he walked right through successfully."Welcome to the Nostalgia cinema, tickets and up ahead so just keep walking and you'll get there," the security guy said very apathetically as he extended and gave Anthony back his phone."Thanks," Anthony said.Once he got back his phone, it started to ring and on checking the screen, it was a call from Mr. Rose Dana.Anthony was surprised at first so he answered because it had to be something important for him to be calling just minutes after they se
