-NX warehouse. [2 hours earlier] Inside a barely lit warehouse, a dashing young man dressed in an all black leather suit held an expensive phone in his left hand. Beside him was another dashing young man who was dressed in the same outfit, but a black nose mask hiding his facial features. Thirty burly men were also present in the barely lit warehouse, maintaining a bit of distance from the two young men but were still positioned protectively around the two young men. The young men were none other than Patrick Schick and his very good friend, Victor Russ. There was also a chair in the warehouse, and a very beautiful lady was tied roughly to the chair, her head covered with a black bag. The lady was of course Charlotte. Her radiant aura was no longer present, her beautiful eyes screamed of weakness and tiredness and her expensive clothes were torn in different places. Patrick took a puff from a cigarette in his hand and smoked deeply before passing it over to his friend Victor to
"You must be tired of living a wealthy life." Nicolas said frostily he moment he stepped into the dark warehouse. A quick glance at the warehouse and Nicolas saw the beautiful lady tied down to a chair, with bruises on her face and wrists. It was obvious that Patrick had hit her. Patrick was a bit surprised at Nicolas' early arrival, but a feeling of arrogance soon overcame his surprise and he laughed heartily. "This is great!" Patrick said amidst his laughter. "You must be Nicolas, the only one in Stormwind City who dares to go against my orders!" Patrick continued to say, but Nicolas cut him off abruptly. "Yes I am." Nicolas affirmed coldly. "Very good! Very good!" Patrick said angrily. "I will make sure you regret your actions!" Patrick yelled angrily, and then made a hand signal. As soon as he made the hand signal, the thirty burly men who had secretly positioned themselves to attack the intruder at a moment's notice immediately moved towards Nicolas, their burly bodies radia
Charlotte watched as the policemen arrested Patrick, Victor and the thirty burly men who were defeated by Nicolas. She couldn't believe her eyes at what she saw. Patrick Schick, the vile heir to the Schick Group who had been troubling her and the Clinton Group for more than a year was defeated instantly by the handsome stranger. It was too shocking. While she was still thinking about how surreal the whole sequence of events ended, a sharp pain on her wrist jolted her out of her thoughts. Nicolas who was standing close to her instantly noticed her subtle movement, and a sharp crease appeared on his eyebrows. He stretched his hands and studied her injured wrist for a few seconds before letting out a sharp sigh. "You have been injured by those horrible men. Let's get you to the hospital immediately." Nicolas said in a calm tone while inspecting the red wounds on Charlotte wrists. As a result, he did not notice the red tint on Charlotte's cheeks. "Mr. Nicolas!" A steady voice sounded
[One week later] After taking care of the Schick Group, Charlotte's Clinton Group did not face any more challenges, and without suspense, she succesfully acquired the Schick Group. After changing the name of the business group from Schick Group to Ormond Group under Nicolas' order, it became one of the subsidiary company of the Clinton Group. The rest of the week was spent with Charlotte hiring new and trustworthy talents to fill the gap that the former personnel of the Schick Group left, and also restructuring the business group according to Nicolas' orders. Charlotte was a very talented person, and without any suspense the newly acquired Ormond Group was under control. Nicolas woke up in his luxurious king sized bedroom energetic and refreshed. Out of habit, Nicolas glanced at the antique clock on the wall of his luxurious bedroom and saw that it was 9:06 am in the morning. He got up from his bedroom and did a series of light stretches, his bones popping and his muscles strainin
"How dare you?!" a voice that belonged to a young man echoed in the classy sales centre. The tone of the voice was incredibly arrogant and superior, making Nicolas frown subconsciously. Nicolas' attention, alongside Liam's was instantly drawn to the source of the voice, and what the both of them saw made Nicolas frown even deeper. A handsome young man with bright red hair was furiously yelling at a female salesperson, his eyes staring down at her with a disdainful look. He seemed disgusted by the sight of the female salesperson. "Look at that, young master Jason is acting up again." a customer who also wanted to purchase a vehicle at the Maxi Automobiles sales centre said, and although it was hidden carefully, one could sense the displeasure in his voice. "Yeah he is. This is the third time this month he is behaving like this. Almost everytime he comes here to service his car he is always involved in one altercation or the other." another customer added, displeasure also layered in
The phone in Nicolas' hands only rang for a few seconds before the person on the other end of the phone answered the call. "Hello?" an elegant voice tinged with respect responded from the other end of the phone. The voice of course belonged to Charlotte. "Who is the Chief Financial Officer of the Clinton Group?" Nicolas Nicolas inquired while maintaining an extremely icy demeanor. "Mr. Jin Horton is the Chief Financial Officer of Clinton Group." Charlotte replied respectfully, but the traces of confusion could be heard in her tone. Jason's face paled even more, and the terrifying thought in his head grew even more terrifying. Nicolas had put the phone on speaker, so Jason could hear everything clearly, along with the rest of the customers in the classy automobile sales centre. "From now on, Jin Horton is no longer the Chief Financial Officer of Clinton Group. He is fired, and should leave the company with immediate effect." Nicolas ordered imperiously in a cold tone, his piercing
The rest of the days passed uneventfully after the series of events at the Maxi Automobiles sales centre. After making the neccessary modifications to his vehicle, the Lamborghini Aventador was delivered to his Blue Diamond Villa. He had also purchased new outfits, ranging from the most expensive Stuart Hughes Diamond Edition suits to Alexander Amosu Vanquish Bespoke suits. These suits were all fitted with high end exquisite accessories. However, all these were merely preludes to the event that was happening today. The Emerald Business Conference. The Emerald Business Conference Charlotte was invited to was happening this night, and Nicolas had to attend no matter what. They were a plethora of reasons Nicolas had to attend, such as being the Clinton Group benefactor, seeing the upper echelons of Stormwind City, and gaining probable connections. However these were secondary reasons for his attendance. The main reason he was attending the Emerald Business Conference was because his a

A huge number of people were outside the steel barricades cheering loudly at the arrivals of the influential figures which included their favorite musicians, actors, internet celebrities, and the top business personnel in Stormwind City.
