"Great. After everything, we will celebrate because they will fall on their knees and beg us to forgive them, but we won't. Don't forget to always have me on the aya, and keep in touch with me. I want to know every move Mr. Jefferson makes," Alaric ordered, and Steve nodded. He turned around and wanted to leave the room when he noticed the sudden silence of Steve again. Steve wasn't doing anything and was just standing, and Alaric turned around to look at him. "What the hell is the problem Steve? Why are you like that? Why are you not following me? Don't tell me you still have something going on in your head," he said, as he walked back up to Steve, with raised eyebrows. Steve looked sideways, to avoid Alaric's eyes and his knowing look. No matter what, Alaric had not convinced him and had not told him the truth. That, he believed. It would have been better if he told him and not kept him in the dark, trying to guess what fueled the rivalry between him and Mr. Jefferson that h
"Yes, Norton. He and his gang. That's why after I am through with Norton, they will follow. My father, Mr. Drones, was very poor, and I was unlucky at that time, not until I found out the truth." "What truth?" "The truth about being the heir of the Wright Empire. Before then, Norton made my life a living hell," he said, as he reminisced on everything that had happened to him. "He bullied you? How dare he? Why would he do something like that?" Steve asked, getting angry. "Hold up a minute, Steve. Well, you're getting angry because I am your Young Master right? Imagine what I faced when I was still a poor college student who couldn't even afford to buy food for himself," he said. "It must have been really painful and sad. I'd this the reason why you want revenge against Norton? What then does Mr. Jefferson have to do with this?" He asked Alaric. Alaric shook his head. "No, Steve. That is not the only reason I want to punish Norton for it, and if you want to know, I have revenge
"I'm impressed. Never say never, though. Anyways, you shouldn't mention this to Evelyn, or anybody else. Not my father, any other worker, anybody at the office, my sister, or even my mother. Nobody else. Keep it sealed," he said, with intensity in his eyes."Yes, young Master. I will," Steve said, nodding, and Alaric shook hands with him, embracing him after. "Let's go outside. Don't worry, we have Mr Jefferson where we want him. There is no way to escape now," Alaric assured Steve, and he nodded. They both left the office, and Alaric almost bumped into Evelyn as he came out. Turns out she was standing in front of the office, waiting at the door for the meeting to be over. He turned and looked at Steve. There was no way she was eavesdropping, right? He thought to himself."Uh… I'm sorry, young Master," she said, moving three steps backward."What? Ummm… you were standing here the whole time? When did you come here?" He asked her. She shook her head. "No, young Master. I only came
" Sir Jefferson, what's the problem?" The driver, whose name was Brad, asked him. "Don't ask stupid questions. They're after me, they will kill me. They want to destroy me. Just drive!" He ordered, and immediately Brad ignited the engine, and stepped foot on the damn gas pedal, zooming off. It was a very quick drive as Mr. Jefferson had instructed him to drive at full speed. Brad was even worried about getting into an accident, but Mr. Jefferson wouldn't give an ear to his pleas. He ordered him to drive straight. On the road, Mr. Jefferson was almost involved in an accident, but he didn't care about that. He only wanted to see his family and explain to them what happened at the office, in the meeting with Alaric. He couldn't wait to tell them that they had enemies now. The car pulled up at the front of the Jeffersons' Grand House, and Mr. Jefferson was not slow to step out of his car. He immediately stepped out, and jammed the car door behind him, leaving Brad, his driver wonder
"What are you trying to tell us, Dad? I don't understand anything. What is the Wright empire, and how do you know about them, Norton?" Arnold asked, squinting, obviously confused with what was going on between his father and his younger brother, Norton. "The Wright empire is one of the greatest conglomerates in the world, Arnold. If you are really fond of reading newspapers and getting updated, you will know about them. They hold so many things in their possessions, ranging from malls, all the way to other popular brands, dealing with so many things, and they are very powerful and influential. I don't understand what Father has against them, though," Norton replied. "Honey, why are you not saying anything? You have heard what Norton said. Say something about this. I am equally as confused as them, and I don't understand anything. What do you have against the powerful Wright Empire? Please tell us what you mean," Mrs. Jefferson begged her husband. She was getting fed up with Mr. Je
"Yes, son. He is the new CEO of the Wright Empire. A young but dangerous guy, ALARIC WRIGHT," he stated, and a resounding bomb kept deafening Norton as he heard the name his father stated. Alaric?! He thought to himself. No way! He was lost in thoughts and was shocked for a moment, and the whole family noticed that he wasn't saying anything. "What happened, Norton? Why are you like that? You're not saying anything? What are you thinking about?" Mr. Jefferson asked him. Norton cleared his throat. "Alaric… Wright?" He asked again, to make sure that he heard correctly. "Yes, son. Alaric Wright. What happened?" His father asked. "Who… who is Alaric Wright? How come I have never heard about him?" Norton asked, and Mr. Jefferson thought deeply. "Well, I didn't know either, and was both confused and surprised when I got to see his face. He is the new CEO of the Wright Empire. According to what I heard, he assumed office when he was proclaimed CEO, and his father was the previous CE
"Yeah, we must make the people who stole from us suffer. But, do you have anyone in mind?" "No one, Arnold. Father already mentioned that the Wright Empire is our new enemy. Wait… what if they were the ones who wiped off the money from…" Norton said, gasping, and his eyes widened. Arnold too was shocked. "No way!" Arnold muttered to himself. It could be, or maybe not! They had started to understand everything. "Yes, Arnold. It could be. I'm not certain about it, but I know that this might be the person who's responsible for all of this. There is a possibility, and we'll have to find out about this to be sure of it," Norton said. "What are you saying, Norton? What do you mean by you will have to find out? What are you planning to do? I'm sure that you don't have the balls to go to the Wright Empire because then I'm a hundred percent sure that you won't be coming back alive. Father already warned us about it," Arnold said, trying to ask Norton to stay back. Nothing was not rea
At the Wright company, Alaric walked sour with Steve. "Young Master, I thought you'd have more meetings, but then, you proved me wrong. Anyway, you'll have to inform our potential business partners that you won't be having many meetings per day. You only had one today, and I'm not sure you'll be able to have any more, because you have to go to the hospital right now. How can we tell them this?" "I told Evelyn to reschedule everything right? It will be fine then. I postponed the meeting. Is there anything wrong with that?" Alaric asked. "That's not my point, young master. You know that these business partners are also busy people. Your father, the boss, had planned to meet with them. However, since you have taken up the position of CEO, you will be the one to meet with them, and I know you are aware of that. What I'm trying to say is that they could be angry because of the way we have postponed so many meetings," Steve said. "Don't worry about that, Steve. I'm sure that we're going
