Raul silently stood by the entrance of the room, as he surveyed and observed the assembled staff, most of them sat fidgety in their seats, with their confused looks on their faces. He could hear their silent murmurings, wondering what the impromptu meeting was all aboutClearing his throat to announce his presence as he walked in, he proceeded into the room, feeling everyone’s eyes on him. He made his way to the front of the room, making sure to look at them all, and maintained facial contact, as he did, some of them quickly lowered their gazes causing Raul to smirk. With no iota of remorse in him, he apologised to them all, “Sorry to keep you all waiting. I apologise for my tardiness, it's not in my character.” He watched as they reacted to his apology, some nodded their heads, while the others had themselves on the edge, anticipating to know what the gathering was for. Well, he wasn't going to keep them waiting any longer, it was his utmost pleasure to inform them of the reason f

A different mix of emotions ran through Logan and Douglas as they stepped forward, Logan found himself sweating profusely and didn't like it. Behind the not-so-elegant man, a large projector had been set and Logan wondered why it was there as it hadn't been there before the meeting. Beads of sweat covered Douglas’ forehead and body, his whole shirt was damp. He silently berated himself for listening to the fool, he ought to have gone with his gut instincts, but now he was to be thoroughly and utterly humiliated before his subordinates. “Can you all please stand right in front of me and face the audience? Thank you”Raul instructed them when they all got to the front, smiling Raul looked at the audience and went on“Standing before you are the men and woman who have been pillars of Reels Limited, people who have in one way or the other contributed to the company’s growth or otherwise, and who today would be rewarded accordingly”As Raul spoke, Logan with his limp hand was unable to s

“How dare that savage lay his hands on you. What gives the lowlife the guts to treat you this way!” Dame Cecilia silently shrilled as she fussed over Logan who was currently lying in a hospital bed, writhing in pain, trying to recuperate after he had fainted at the office. Logan grimaced in pain, Cecilia noticed his discomfort, and hovering over him she asked him, concern laced in her voice, “Are you alright my son?” Failing to see Logan’s shake of the head, she continued her rants“Who does that son of a bitch think he is, I will make sure he's unable to lift a finger anymore by the time I'm done with him. I'll get Williams, my darling son-in-law to deal with that scavenger for what he has done to my son!” She had clenched her fists as she spoke, with her eyes a bloodshot red. Standing a few feet away, Logan could hear her breathe heavily as he watched her rage on. Logan wanted Adam’s disgrace and more, he still couldn't understand nor figure out what had happened earlier, how Ad

Cecilia stared incredulously at the nurse, her eyes throwing daggers at her. What right did this flimsy thing have to talk to her in the manner she did, did she not realise who she was talking to? “You're going to pay for this, I'll make sure of that. If after today you have another job, it will be by a stroke of luck!” narrowing her eyes at the nurse, she glared at her, shaking her fist continuously The nurse scoffed and waved her hand in a flimsy manner. She was following orders and nothing more. Cecilia stomped to the bedside table by Logan’s hospital bed, and rummaged through her Keon Louis handbag, searching for her phone. Phone in hand, she wagged a finger in the nurse’s direction “You and your supposed superiors are in trouble, by the time we're done with you, you'd pity yourself. Just you wait! My son-in-law will handle you once and for all!” she muttered loudly. Face reddening, she dialled Williams' number, while hoping he would be available to pick up her call, she coul

At his pronouncement, their brows drew together as they looked at him, Logan’s mouth was opened, as he leaned on Cecilia who had gone completely still, with only her eyes moving around. Williams was at a loss for words, as he held the doctor's gaze, opening and shutting his mouth, unable to string any word, finally finding his voice, he spoke and questioned the doctor, his voice going a notch higher, “What utter rubbish are you saying!? Can I know why and what made you make such a ludicrous decision!?”Shrugging half-heartedly, Doctor Lewis placed his hand into his pocket, and gave a long pause before he responded, “I decided on good authority, on the orders of the owner and shareholders of this hospital Sir. Mr Logan Martins, and anyone associated with him, isn't allowed entry into this hospital. The nurse was working on that order” Cecilia who had been standing still gasped loudly, her head snapping back. Williams stared in shock at the doctor, causing his eyes to bulge out of

“Nope, not yet. Stuck in a little traffic” his friend Adrien replied over the phoneNodding his head in understanding, Adam replied his friend“Alright then. Hate to be you right now” Adrien chuckled over the phone, his voice lighter, “Fuck off Adam” and ended the call. Taking the phone off his ears, Adam smiled at their playful banter. Adrien Maverick was the person who had helped him with the evidence of Logan and his direct boss’ plan. As an appreciation, he had decided to take his friends out for lunch in the lush restaurant. Adrien Maverick was one of the people he had met in prison, who had fast turned into a friend and ally, a top-shot billionaire and entrepreneur with affiliation to the underworld, his younger brother Omar had been convicted in Adrian’s place, taking the fall for Adrian’s crime, and leaving him filled a guilty conscience. With Omar being an underdog in prison, Adam had protected and covered for him all through their stay in prison, he even got Marcus’ hel

Her shouts had already attracted the attention of the seated patrons as well as the servers, as they all watched on with keen interestAdam stood still, staring at her. Unmoved and not flinching by her shrills. His silence infuriated Louisa, who had been shocked to see Adam, but had instantly morphed it. Louisa's outburst and shock flowed into anger, and in an instant she landed a slap on Adam's face in retaliation, causing him to stagger back in shock, clenching his fist tightly. "That's for what you did to my brother you fool. The audacity you got to raise your filthy hands to my brother. I see that prison must have given you some wings, you better believe that I'll be the one to clip those wings of yours. I'll be your living nightmare. Williams has me now, get over yourself!! I moved up, I levelled up twice, even thrice and you can't even match up!" out of breath, she exclaimed, fuming and billowing seriously. She further got infuriated at Adam's nonchalant attitude and expressi

He heard Louisa’s sharp intake of breath, alongside some of the ladies present and smirked once more, crossing his feet as he stood. “He's even arrogant and not remorseful” one lady yelled in the crowd, as she narrowed her eyes at him. Adam just quirked his eyebrow at her and smiled smugly “Very unrepentant. He deserves to go back to jail, it's obvious he hasn't learnt any lesson there at all” Williams drew his head back quickly in shock at Adam’s response and indifferent stance, glared intensely at Adam, not blinking in his stare, he exhaled deeply and held his breath before he huffed, "How dare you talk to me like that you fool! I could have you destroyed, I did it once, and I will do it again"Adam who was frustrated with Williams' ominous threats, and the accusations thrown at him by those present, rolled his eyes and crossed his arms, glaring at Williams. “There's nothing you can do Williams, you have done your worse”“Hey, young man! You can't talk to this distinguished fel

Chapter 1. (A glimpse into The Unrefined Jason Lee)
September 29th 2009, “W-here's where's m-my Angel?” As Jason opened his eyes, he looked around, dazed. The eyes felt too heavy to be opened, but he refused to close them. As his eyes rested on the strange man, he blinked rapidly, "W-who are y-you?” he questioned while staring intently at the man, "For now, that's not important. You'll get to know me in time, but right now, we need to leave this shack! Your life is in danger!” The strange man muttered, his eyes darting between the shack and the door. Hearing the urgency in the man's voice, chills crept down Jason's frail body, and he gulped, returning his gaze to the man, he blinked once more, "W-what do you m-mean? I'm safe here, nobody will ever think to f-find me in a shack” The strange man scoffed, and shook his head, “Boy, if only you knew”, was his curt response, and as Jason watched him, he struggled to sit up against the bare and flat mattress that lay on the floor. The more Jason stared around his surroundings

CHAPTER FOUR HUNDRED & ONE
Adam was back in the basement, and he walked straight to the den of the old man, with Raul trailing behind him. He walked into the den and met the Old Man and Sage Robinson already sitting and waiting for him. They had heard the news and were waiting to congratulate him. “The man of the moment,” Dreymond called out from the corner where he was seated and Adam turned to see him and Amber seated together. Adam had not seen Amber since the other day at the coast brother’s basement and he was glad that she was recuperating. Old man Thompson stood up and walked towards Adam as they both approached each other. The old man saw the passion in his eyes and stopped. He tapped him on the shoulder and nodded his head, and everyone in the room had to do the same. That was the brotherhood way of celebration, “Weldon Adam,” The old man said and patted him on both sides of his shoulder. He was in prison with Adam, and he knew how he had fought for this moment, and he was very proud to be part of

After Adam had dropped her off, Leila walked into their home with sweaty palms, occasionally biting at her lips,She tried to keep her cool and not let her nerves get the best of her. She had already told Joan that she would be back just in time for their dad's arrival, and now, she had probably missed that. She walked into the living room gently, trying to be as silent as possible, hoping not to bump into either Joan or her father she tried to sneak in but she faltered in her steps with popping eyes to discover both of them in the sitting room discussing,“Leila.” Her dad called out gently as she walked in, with her gaze lowered and her fingers crossed at her back,“Come here, princess.” Her father said, spreading out his arms to receive her in for a hug. “I am sorry I was not here to welcome you, papa.” She whispered tearfully as she hugged her father tightly,“I know I have disappointed you; please forgive me, papa.” She said as she continued to let it rain with her tears.“I am

Seeing the expression on Mira's face, her mother quickly ran towards her and immediately grabbed the phone out of her hand, glancing at Adam before glancing at the phone, and as she did, her hands began shaking and her eyes popped out, also gasping like her daughter, “W-what. Un-unbelievable, Im-po-ssible” she kept stuttering and looking dazedly at Adam, Mira gaped at her empty hand, and back at Adam, her mouth agape. She swallowed and looked at him, “Fifty million euros, Adam?" As soon as she revealed the amount, everyone around gasped and turned their gaze at Adam, whose cheeks were turning slightly red; he nodded subtly at Mira while Leila stood staring at him unabashedly, grinning from ear to ear. Still smiling a little, Adam informed a still-stunned Mira, “One of my men will reach out to you, I'd like for you to head one of my companies. You were instrumental in my daughter's well-being as well as meeting a great woman" he cast a glance at Leila and she blushed. Madam Ruth
CHAPTER THREE HUNDRED & NINETY-EIGHT
Once again Madam Ruth burst into a loud laughter, clutching her stomach as she did. Every other person watched as she laughed, Mira on the other hand gaped at Adam, unable to string any words together,A part of her was certain the reveal was true as there was something about Adam that was quite different and he didn't seem like a pauper the way her mother had made him out to be.Leila's eyes darted at Adam, and she tried holding their gaze to confirm it, but Adam wasn't looking at her; his face was almost blank, sans the little smirk she caught on his face. She found herself wondering if whatever he had to reveal was in line with what had just been revealed.Madam Ruth once again cut short her laughter and spluttered, glancing at the manager as she spoke in a disbelieving voice,“Are you blind or what? Or perhaps you hit your head on the way here," she deduced mockingly, and the man sneered at her, refraining from deeming her with a reply.The man, alongside others, ignored her, as A

“What do you mean by that?!" Leila asked, nearly shrieking as she stared at him, and in return, Adam nodded,Leila continued to gape at him, she was a mix of confusion and shock at what Adam had said, even if he hadn't elaborated on it,“W-what do you mean, Adam?" She questioned, focusing her gaze on him, Adam sighed and expelled a breath simultaneously, sitting upright on his seat, he opened his mouth to respond,“I'm the lost heir of Mar…”Before he could continue, a loud voice broke through his response, and the voice was oddly familiar,"What do you mean my payment didn't go through?! Who the bloody hell are you?! Do you even know who I am?!” The voice thundered, flying out of her seat to land a hot unexpected slap on the stunned waiter’s face,“Mother!!!" her daughter chided beside her and she turned to glare at her,“If you can't defend your mother, then stay out of my way!" Adam turned towards the direction and wasn't surprised to see a snarling Ruth with a downcast Mira stand

CHAPTER THREE HUNDRED & NINETY-FIVE
“Are you shocked?” Adam asked Cecil as he slowly and gently began to walk closer to her. Cecil, who was now filled with fear, could only stare at Adam, at that moment, Stefan’s words began to ring in her head. ‘That man is dangerous, very very dangerous.’ She reminisced and her eyes of their own accord began to water, as she subtly shook her head from side to side, retracting her steps as Adam advanced further,He paused in his steps and turned to face the uniformed men,“These are the culprits" he informed the waiting women who glared at Cecil with death in their eyes, causing her to shiver,“They are the ones who framed me for rape.” Adam continued, pointing to William, Louisa and her mother. Cecil was speechless as she gaped with an open mouth; she couldn't believe Adam had found out about that; they had contacted a very highly profiled criminal to carry out the foul play, and she had been certain there was no way Adam would be able to get his hands on that lady.“What sort of ac
