“I will be successful with this.” A man named Edgar Himber promised that he will be successful with the new vehicle that he will release in public. However, before he released the new invention, he was scammed by his own wife, lost money, was in debt and soon went to prison after he was framed for tax evasion. Edgar will spend five years in prison just for being a loyal husband and a diligent worker. While in prison, Gaston heard a lot about this amazing but unfortunate Edgar. “Did you hear that the Xtreme company released a new vehicle that can fly through air?” “Fly through the air? That does not make sense.” “It’s true!” Eating bread in the cafeteria, Gaston looked at the prisoners who were talking about a vehicle that can fly through air. “It is! I read it in the newspaper this morning. Only rich people can buy that though. But whoever came up with that invention must be a genius.” Suddenly, a man slammed the table. Everyone, including Gaston, looked at the man sitting
While looking through the documents, John suddenly burst out laughing. His secretary, David, looked at him with curiosity. What made the Chairman laugh all of a sudden? “Did you know what Gaston asked me as soon as the dinner was over?” John asked David. So, David inquired, “What is it, Sir?” “He asked me to lend him money because he is going to invest. He really is my son, right?” David nodded his head. He was also awed at Gaston’s ability. ‘He even caught me stealing from the Chairman. That shows how capable he is,’ David thought. “Do you have any idea which company my son would invest with?” John flung a question. “I am not sure, Chairman. But I heard that he went to West Street early this morning.” “I see.” John closed the folder and then said, “Can you call Jurgen to come inside my office?” “Alright, Chairman.” David went out of the office. As soon as he stepped out, he saw Jurgen waiting outside the room. Jurgen stiffened when he saw Secretary David. It is because D
Sonny couldn’t believe the news that Gaston rejected his daughter in front of everyone. “So, it’s true. I cannot use my daughter anymore,” Sonny said while sitting in front of his desk. If Divine will be useless to gain the heir of the Hopkins’, then Sonny only thought of one thing. ‘I should go directly to Gaston and persuade him to team up with me, rather than being in the same team with Griffti,’ he thought. But can Sonny really put down his pride just to gain Gaston’s trust? If it is to inherit the Hamington group, he will do anything. “Vice President, here is the list of the companies who will launch their new motorbike next week. They are waiting to see which one Hamington will choose to sponsor.” Sonny looked at the lists of the companies. There are 20 companies listed, and that made Sonny frown. “Why are these twenty?” he asked. “ We put the large and small companies together, Sir.” Sonny threw the list on the table. “I think you forgot something. We are Hamington g
Sonny entered the car while breathing heavily. He was fuming in anger. “What did he say? He doesn’t have any remaining business with me?” Sonny uttered while gritting his teeth. He then, looked at his secretary. “Look for Hamington Architecture Firm’s next project this month,” Sonny said. He looked at the blank space and grinned. “Gaston will regret supporting my nephew instead of me.” Gaining the support of the Hopkins’ heir is like eating a spoonful of diamond. And that’s why Sonny wanted to have Gaston by his side. Unfortunately, Gaston will never choose the family who once degraded him and even framed him for murder. Inside Griffti’s office, Gaston placed the plant vase on the table, next to the CEO’s nameplate. Behind his, Griffti drank his calming medicine while sitting on the couch. Touching the leaves of the plants that Gaston brought with him, he said, “You’re welcome.” Griffti looked at his visitor with a frown. “I haven’t thanked you yet.” “But your face says so,”
John invited his son to eat lunch with him in a restaurant. Before they started to eat, John gave an envelope to Gaston. Gaston opened the envelope and was surprised to see the content. It is a proof signed by the Chairman that he is transferring 30% shares of Hopkins corporation to Gaston and making him the new CEO of Hopkins Mall. “F-Father,” Gaston stuttered after seeing this. Wordless, he looked at John. John smiled at his son. “When you first came to ask me a favor, I was disappointed that you only asked me to lend you money. Do I look cheap to you?” “Of c-course not, but this is…” “Too much?” No. Gaston knew that someday, his father would give him the Hopkins’ shares and let him manage a company. But he didn’t expect this to come soon. “Levi,” John called him by his real name. “You are my only son. The precious child your mom gave to me before she died. Giving you these is nothing compared to the time that I didn’t give to you before.” Gaston put the document back in
Gaston stood in front of the main entrance of the Hopkins Mall.Wearing blue matched suits, black necktie and shiny black leather shoes, he looked at the giant building he now owns.His eyes focused at the building and the entrance of it, and then he felt the burning sensation in his throat.‘This building is mine,’ reminding himself with these thoughts, he traversed forward the entrance of the company.Beside him, there are 10 guards walking side by side. The employees of the mall lined up to meet the new CEO of the company.When the saleslady saw the new CEO walking at the center with a confident look in his face, they were awed.He’s a total catch. Their mouths opened widely, followed by unstoppable blushing of their cheeks.Gaston has a face that will make every woman in the world show their affection for him.“Is that the Chairman’s son? He’s a total p*nty stripper,” a saleslady whispered to her friend.“Hey. Watch your mouth. Do you want to get fired?”“But still, he’s really my
Gaston studied in a prestigious school not because he was sponsored by Chairman Harold, but also because he’s intelligent. He always excelled in his academic grades. That’s why Chairman Harold wanted his youngest grandson, Jules, to follow Gaston’s steps. Because of this, Gaston became the thorn in Jules’ eyes. He became the center of the bully, thanks to Jules. The bullies hid his shoes. Put garbage in his locker or threw erasers on his head. As time passed by, things got worse. It is because Gaston didn’t fight back and he kept this a secret to the Chairman. One day, they brought Gaston to the back of the Senior building of the school. “Ugh!” Gaston winced as they pushed him on the ground. A tingling pain spread on Gaston’s palms. When he checked his hands, he saw scratches and blood from the wounds. He looked back at the three rich boys, who resembled their friend, Jules. They are the kind of people who enjoy stomping over the weak. “What are you looking at? Stand up!” Ma
The female employees of the department store in Hopkins mall were gathered in one room. “Why did we gather here?” “I don’t know. The Manager just told us to come.” “What if the CEO has complaints after visiting yesterday?” “That might be right! Is he going to fire us?” “This many? And we haven’t done anything against Hopkins mall.” “Let’s not jump into conclusion. Maybe this is just some, you know, announcement for things that the CEO wanted to do in the future. Or he’ll give us words of encouragement.” Jillian only listened to her co-workers while standing in the corner of the room. Everyone was anxious about this sudden meeting. But Jillian was excited. ‘I didn’t have the chance to check if the CEO was really the Gaston I knew. If I see him again, I think I can figure it out,’ she thought. “The CEO is here!” the manager told everyone. The employees put their hands behind their backs and stood straight. Then, a handsome man in a blue suit entered the room. All eyes follow
