Crow Lane, Stormwind City.The media company that Ricky Knoss worked for was a somewhat successful venture in the media business industry.They were known for reporting only the truth, after several hours spent in uncovering it. Although their methods might be unconventional and questionable, what they reported was still undoubtedly the truth, and as a result of this, they had a decent amount of followers and fans who always tuned in to their channel at the designated time to watch their news.*Clinton Group HQ, Stormwind City.Charlotte Clinton stood ramrod still in a professional manner, the expression on her face as stoic as it could be, but that wasn’t the case in her heart.Her heart was beating extremely fast that she was sure Nicolas, who was seated right in front of her could hear it.As for why her heart was beating so rapidly, she was definite that it was because of the excitement she felt about taking down one of the five overlords in Stormwind City!Nicolas glanced at he
Nicolas maintained a cold expression on his flawless facial features as he sped across the somewhat populated highway.His destination was naturally the headquarters of the former Argos Organization now turned Lotus Syndicate.They were crucial in the second phase of his plan, and it was time for them to finally prove their worth in his elaborate scheme that would put the Tyris family in their grave.Nicolas put his pedal to the ground and accelerated as he sped on the highway.The sooner he arrived at his destination, the faster the elaborate scheme progressed, and the faster the elaborate scheme progressed, the faster the death of the Tyris family.He was quite impatient, but then again, anyone in his shoes would be as well.*The drive to the Lotus Syndicate Headquarters only took a little more than 40 minutes; and considering the fact that Nicolas was driving there in a Lamborghini Aventador, and at top speed at that, it was a definite fact that the headquarters was quite far from
While Nicolas was setting up the second phase of his elaborate scheme to bury the Tyris family alive, Charlotte was working hard to make sure that the instructions that he gave to her were being carried out as soon as possible.Of course, as she was carrying them out quickly, she was also very meticulous in her actions, as she did not want to make any single mistake, careless or not.She knew how crucial this was to Nicolas, so she had to put in her very best effort to fulfill his instructions.Charlotte did not want to delegate this job to anybody else as well.She could easily get her assistant or secretary to compile a noteworthy and trustworthy list for her, and could present it to Nicolas as her work, but she closed off her mind to doing such.She vowed that she would repay Nicolas’ kindness’ with her hard work, and that was a promise she vowed to keep no matter what.*Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and Charlotte had been hard at work for those three days.During the
The business meeting between Charlotte and Richard Monroe did not take long at all, contrary to what Richard thought at first.When the meeting between the two of them concluded, Richard was all over himself with joy.A million dollars!That was an astronomical amount of money to the media company.Even when they were at the peak of their business, they had never ever made a fraction of the money at all, and yet, such a huge amount of money fell into their hands!Richard, although blinded by the large amount of money did not lose his head, and still maintained a small façade of calmness.“You wouldn’t drive all the way to the suburbs just to offer me a million dollars to report some news.” Richard asked, a calm and wise look in his aged eyes as he spoke.He wasn’t going to be blinded by the illusion of a million dollars that easily.Charlotte laughed out loud, shocking Richard, but internally, her personal opinion of Richard went up by a lot.He didn’t lose his head over the mention o
The matters and tasks on Charlotte ends were completed before the week ran out, and the media companies that she visited personally all agreed to her proposal.She wasn’t surprised at all by their compliance. After all, most of the media companies she picked were on the verge of bankruptcy and needed a substantial amount of money.The one million dollars she offered each of them was too much to refuse, and the condition—that they report what Nicolas wanted, when he wanted—was a small price to pay for a chance at survival.The money was going to change the course of their media companies, and there was no visible downside to it.It was no wonder that they all picked the one million dollars.It was exhilarating.She knew that the Tyris family, a major player in the city's business world, would soon feel the weight of the media against them. Nicolas's strategy was clear: destabilize the Tyris family from every angle, and the media was a crucial part of that plan.Charlotte had completed
Nicolas stirred from his slumber in his lavishly adorned chamber, as the sun bright light filtered through the magnificent curtains.Lavish silk sheets cascaded around him as he stretched, the morning sunlight dancing on the intricate patterns of the Persian rug beneath his feet.With a lazy yawn, he rose from his pricey king sized bed, greeted by the soft embrace of his surroundings—a sanctuary of luxury and comfort.He took a quick glance at the antique clock in the corner of his lavish room, and saw that it was already 2:41 p.m., which was quite late in the afternoon, and a look of surprise appeared on his exquisitely handsome face.Approximately thirteen hours had passed since his phone call with Detective Oliver, and Nicolas was stunned at how long it had been since the last phone call he made.He had not gotten a good night sleep in a long while now, as he had been working hard on different fronts to exact his retribution on the Tyris family, but he did not expect it to be this
The dim rays of the sunlight penetrated the windows of Nicolas’ luxurious bedroom, illuminating the room and Nicolas’ handsome face as well.Nicolas turned slightly and moved his face away from the rays that were pouring directly on his face. He tried to go back to sleep, but being the diligent person that he was, he knew that it was futile.Letting out a small sigh, he stood up from his soft king sized bed in a fluid motion, his piercing blue eyes fixated on the pricey wall clock.It read 7:19 a.m., similar to what Nicolas expected.Nicolas plopped down on one of his plush sofas, and although he was preparing to go on with his daily morning routine, his mind was preoccupied with thoughts of his plans against the Tyris family.With four of his phases in motion already, Nicolas decided to pull back and opted to wait while his plans were being materialized. Being in a rush was not going to bring the best of the results after all, especially one that he desired.Not to mention, he had be
As soon as Fred stepped through the magnificent entrance, which was embellished with delicate gold details, the air of luxury and sophistication in the café hit him like a wave. Tucked away in the fashionable cityscape, the sumptuous cafe radiated sophistication and luxury.The inside of the café was a symphony of luxurious furnishings, such as tables with marble tops and velvet-upholstered seats, all softly lit by crystal chandeliers that dangled from the tall ceiling.The air was filled with the melodious strains of live classical music, providing a backdrop for the whispered conversations of the affluent clientele dining in the café.Wealthy patrons, clothed in designer attire lounged comfortably, savoring the delicious and finger licking good desserts meticulously crafted by world-renowned pastry chefs. Delicate macaroni and decadent chocolate truffles tempt the palate, accompanied by the finest selection of rare teas and exotic coffees.Through the floor-to-ceiling windows, a pan
