"You brat, what is a wretched man like you doing here?" Sandro said.

Tobin rolled his eyes. He had to careful around men like him. Men like Sandro were pigs and he had to be careful, else he would drag him into the mud.

"Sandro, what a surprise, what's a man like you doing in this really important place?" Tobin said with an amused tone.

Sandro frowned. "Listen to me, you have no idea who you're messing with."

"I'm not messing with anyone. Mind your business, and I'll mind mine." Tobin said, not so smiley now.

"Ha! Look at you trying to talk to me like a man when you've been stripped off that right a long time ago. You're here for another pathetic interview, aren't you?" Sandro said mocking him.

Tobin couldn't help but remember all the time when he had been searching for a job and was always getting declined. So, this fool knew about it too. They mocked him and were sure he would never find a job.

He remembered what his mother in law had said the night before that she was waiting for him to leave. For a way to send him away.

He held his anger though and kept calm. For a while, he stole glances at the lady they called Lisa. She was pretty as he took a brief look at her. Slender legs probed out under the slit in her gown. She seemed to notice because she gave a slight smile.

He quickly returned his gaze to Sandro. "I'll leave first."

"No, I will leave first, you fool. Let me tell you something, the Blanco family, they're not the ones for you. They never will be. You don't have any money, you are just a nobody in this life. And the Blanco however, they want money. Lots of it."

Tobin could almost laugh. He was bragging of a few millions while he had lots of billions!

"I'm a millionaire and I can take care of that sweet chick of yours." Sandro said. If he had paused, he would have seen the stern look on Tobin's face. "So this is why I am telling you, man to man. Surrender and let me wed your wife. We will be a great match together, don't you think? Ha!" he said then turned to walk away.

He paused again and stopped to stare at Tobin. "Oh, by the way...you won't get hired here. Better not to wait for the interview. Ha!" And with that, he walked away.

He stepped into the building and was lousy with his comments. "Whoa, this place is very big! Look at everyone here, wow."

"Sandro, let us comport ourselves." The lady with him, Lisa said. She had to add a smile so Sandro wouldn't be offended.

"Is that so, my love? You know, you are right. Let us go over to the secretary or is it the receptionist, or no, no, wait...I want to take pictures. Here, this place is looking really nice. Snap me here." He went to pose for a picture, and with a lazy face, Lisa took him a couple of pictures.

After a while, he noticed Tobin heading over to the receptionist and so he rushed over there to embarrass him even more.

"Hello sexy lady, he yelled. Don't answer this weirdo! Ha." Both he and Tobin arrived at the same time.

Immediately, the lady knew Tobin as the CEO, but Tobin quickly shut her off so she doesn't alert anyone. He had made his position known to only a few of them in the company.

"Hello, Rachael." Tobin said to the lady. "I was just chatting with Mr. Colins some minute ago. He's asked that I met with you for the whole summary of what I've asked--"

"What is this nonsense! Here, I have an appointment so you listen to me!" Sandro yelled.

The lady paused to stare at Tobin, then after a nod from him, she faced Sandro.

"Hello sir, if you have any enquiries, wait for an assistant of mine who will be here in a couple of minutes soon. Thank you." She said, then immediately went to stand beside Tobin.

"Mr. Smith, please come with me." she said gently to him. Tobin took one last look at Sandro and went with the receptionist.

This more than infuriated Sandro because now he was causing a scene. "How dare you! How dare all of you fools here! Do you know who I am? I will get you all fired! Son of a bitch!"

"Please, Sandro. They don't make noise here, maybe we can talk about it quietly--" Lisa was saying to him as politely as she could but Pedro raised his hand and slapped her hard.

"This is nonsense! I came here first. I should be given that vip treatment, not him. I'm going to give him a call now and he'll deal with him."

Lisa's face was burning red now but she still managed to ask. "Call who?"

"My boss. Our boss."

Lisa frowned. So he had a boss? And he always acted like a god! She said nothing but was starting to change her mind over him.

Meanwhile, Tobin was heading straight to meet his secretary, Holly. He was furious at the fact that Sandro had been involved in his downfall. He hated him even more now.

Holly went to meet him as soon as she saw him approaching. " Mr. Smith, hi."

"Firstly, do me a favor. There's a pig downstairs, I want you to chase him out for me right now."

Holly frowned. "A pig?"

Sandro was still yelling and causing a fit outside when two hefty men along with a slender lady walked towards him.

"Please sir," Holly started to say but Sandro cut them off.

"Oh nice. Am I finally getting the treatment I deserve? Are these men here to escort me? Thank goodness. But there's one thing I'd like to ask. Throw that wretched man out this instant."

"Correct. Guards, throw this wretched man out right now!" Holly commanded.

"Wait, he's not here now. What-what are you doing..." Before Sandro could say anything again, he was being dragged out with force like a criminal being thrown in jail. He stayed out on the ground wondering what had just happened to him.

"Mr. Sandro, you've prohibited from entering this premises from this moment. If you do, you'll be thrown to jail. You will suffer losses far more than you can expect. Also, this company will never do business with your family ever again. Boy, throw him near the dumpster there." With that, Holly walked away.

Tobin had asked for a recording of that scene when he was dragged outside. "Holly, fetch the reporters. Tell them there's a juicy story to cover."

    Sando searched around for Lisa and saw she wasn't any where near. He was furious a bit, but he instantly jumped up to his feet, acting like nothing had even happened. He had meeting with Cami, and he knew she didn't like lateness."Sandro, lovely to see you here. I am glad you could make it." Cami welcomed him with a smile as soon as she stepped foot in the living room. Rosa was there too. "Thank you so much, sweet Cami." Sandro said."Go on, Rosa. Go fetch your brother in law a drink." Cami said to Rosa, then turned to Sandro. "Tell me, Sandro, how did it go? Do we have a shot?" Sandro had worked his lies on his way there. He gave a heavy sigh, showing concern. He could notice Cami was always frowning. He has to be a lot more dramatic!"Oh dear Cami, it just happened so fast!" He began. "Today was just so very funny actually, I got in.

"Sir, I have...I don't know how to say this--""Be blunt with me, Holly. Why was my early instructions about giving the bidding to my wife not carried through?." Tobin said."Okay, sir. This was simply because the needs of the company are far larger than your wife's bid can handle. So...I postponed it, hoping to discuss this matter with you first about how to proceed.""What?" Tobin fumed angrily. "What are you even saying, Holly?""Truth is, that's just bullshit sir. The main problem is because of your enemies here in the company! They don't like the fac

    Tobin told Holly they would talk again but he needed to head home first. He felt a bit distant with his wife, seeing that he had been too obsessed with making everything work out fine."That's right, I'll get her cake and wine so we can celebrate." He said to himself. He walked into a pastry shop, a fancy one at that, even though their prices were high but he could pay now. He would get Hailey nothing but the best from now.The place was less crowded and people minded their business enjoying their meal. He walked to the counter. "Hello sir," a lady said. She was slender with cute eyes. "Hello. I'll like to order a cake. Something for my wife, a customized one." Tobin said."Okay sir, what would you like to be on the cake? And if it's your wife, may I interest you in a chocolate cake or--"The lady was interrupted by a man walking in. He was medium height, shorter than Tobin, and he had an apron around his waist.

    "Now I'm very sure I won't be licking your feet, Finn, but tell me, what makes you so sure you can call me a thief?" Tobin said, folding his hands beneath his chest.The audience seemed to be listening too, interested in what Finn had to say.Finn walked forward proudly. "Well, seeing that you stole clothes to wear so you'd be allowed inside such a grand place. You don't own these clothes, Tobin. Just give up already!"This only made Tobin roll his eyes. Finn had no idea what he was talking about. "Mr. Manager?" Tobin called."Yes? I'm still here." The man replied coldly."I want you to verify this card and then tell me what you think. Whether I'm a criminal or not." He said to the man."Don't let him get close to you sir, he's a thief!" Finn yelled out.Tobin advanced forward and met with the manager. "Here, verify. But don't waste my time. You should know faces of dignified customers as a businessman, at the mention of just their name.""And what's your name?" "Mr. Tobin Smith, wha

    Tobin couldn't get the words out of his head. What would make her think that? He had to be careful now. Even after his lies that she had been mistaken, that sharing the last name 'Smiths' was just a coincidence.He got home and met his sister and mother in laws. What were they doing now?"Oh you're back honey," Hailey got up and went to meet him."Well well well, speaking of the devil." Rosa said."Listen to what we've said now, honey." Cami said as she got up. "We'll leave now.""Goodnight." Tobin said to them but neither gave him a response. It was just he and his wife now."What did they come here to say?" He asked her as he saw she had worry lines on her face."It's nothing, Tobin. You should go get changed." Hailey said."Look what I brought." Tobin decided to liven up the mood. He showed the cake and wine and that was when Hailey bursted out in tears.At first he thought it was tears of joy, until it turned into real ones. What had he said or done?"Hey hey," he dropped the cake

    The next morning, Tobin had rushed in to work. Frank was in his office with Holly now."There wasn't much I could do last night, but I was able to shut the news off some websites and news companies. But the damage has already been done." Tobin said."I think you should ignore him sir. We all know silence is the best answer for a fool." Said Frank."Ignore? No way, sir. You must deal with him. He's gone way too far now." Holly snapped back."I mean, I'm angry. Why would he call me a criminal? Because my identity is hidden means nothing but me asking people to respect my privacy." Tobin flared."But he stooped so low, I should not be in the dirt with him." he concluded."Sir, he won't stop here. You should give him a response." Holly insisted."This news will die down before you know it. Let's just focus on something else." Frank replied to Holly.Tobin frowned. They were both right, but he needed to win his wife's bid.

She was pretty and young too."Please I am so sorry for this embarrassment." Mary said."No need to apologize, Mary. Just do what I've asked already.""You're right, David."

"Wait, what? His name is Tobin not David! I'm David! Mary, how can you do this to me? How can you do this to me??" before he could say another thing again, the guards pushed him out.Tobin smiled.

    What nobody knew was that Tobin had already made a little research on these men, and Giovanni was the main target. Whatever he said, his men will follow.The room was empty now with only Tobin and the old man."How did you know that name? Who else have you told, huh!" Giovanni demanded.Tobin remained in his relaxed position. "Does it matter? What you have done all these years ago, I can bring it back to light." He said.Giovanni was impatient. Being in the navy for long, he struck an attack by jumping forward to stab Tobin. But he was faster. Tobin easily managed to lean, evading the knife, and he regained balance and struck the knife away from Giovanni."Are you mad, old man! You attack me? Why would you do something so stupid! There's camera everywhere." Tobin yelled out.Giovanni crept to his knees. "I--I'm sorry. I'm Sorry! I...please don't tell anyone about me!" he cried out.This made Tobin even more shocked.

    When they were already out in their car, Hailey stopped him from driving with an angry face."What was that all about? Why did you cut them off our business!"Tobin knew his wife didn't know what the Blancos have done to him. How they ruined his life. He could have been great in life since he was little. Who knows, maybe his parent would still be alive!"Hailey, I didn't do anything. They willingly accepted the terms, knowing that their plan to split us up would work." He said to her."What we should be focused on right now is to win this bet, so you won't have to abort our baby.""And how do you propose we do that, huh? We should have thought--no. You should have thought hard before making that stupid dare!" Hailey roared out. This was the first time Tobin was seeing her angry."Don't worry about that. I will make it up to us. You'll win, Hailey. You just have to trust me." Tobin promised. The drive home was silent. He went inside and called Holly."Hailey, my wife must win the bid

I know I can do a better work than Hailey.""Ha! You can go get yourself a husband first. Then resume work immediately. And come back to tell me all of this again." Cami said. "Let's just call uncle Tommy!" Rosa blurted out. The mention of this name again made Cami to shiver in fear. "Shut up your loose mouth or I'll shut it for you!" Cami threatened. Rosa is wondering why her mother is always so tensed whenever that name pops up. But she said nothing."Fine. Then let's call them and remake this bet. Hailey cannot be the family CEO. Never!" Rosa said finally."Alright then. What is your plan for this? Even if we remake the bet, she might just win." Cami aske

Cami and her daughter saw that they've had their seat, so they hurried to join them."Well all this show offs can stop now." Cami said. "Let's get on with this, shall we?""Yes I couldn't agree more.

It's this seven star rated restaurant and the biggest in town according to ratings." she exclaimed. Cami rolled her eyes. "Of course I know Dinner House." Cami said. "But is that even possible? How did he get a reservation?""Exactly! I'm as surprised as you, mom." Replied Rosa. "Well he said by 8pm. We better hurry up, it's past 6 now."Cami crunched her nose in detest.

Do you know who David is? And you think you can send him just like that!" the woman yelled out.Tobin's voice was still so calm it even surprised him. "Miss, calm down.

    The door barged open and about five hefty men walked in."You're coming with us, now!" in a thunderous voice, one of the men said. The rest bounced forward and held David by the arms before he could think straight.Realizing that his life was about to be ruined, he panicked and kicked one of the men on the foot. Waiting that the man would cry out in pain, it didn't happen. Instead, he looked at him and grunted."Wait, wait! What is this? Do you know who I am!" David began to panic."Take him out right now." The man who was like their leader commanded and before he knew it, David was already dragged outside."No. This isn't happening! Don't touch me!

    David's laughter was a roar. "What nonsense are you saying, Tobin? How can you make such a foolish bet?""That's how he is." Rosa said, "he thinks he's somehow important so he goes around making silly bets."Hailey wanted to talk, but she trusted her husband. However, she was more suspicious now than ever. Tobin seems more confident nowadays, and she knew it was because he had a nice job now. But standing up against someone like David?"Now, Hailey will resume work and make the most of the company. Since this one here has proved to be bad at everything she does," Tobin said, not looking at Rosa even though he was talking about her.Rosa wanted to say something but was cut off by David."What is your plan, huh! Start talking now." David was starting to think Tobin was weird. How can such a low life speak to him like that? Maybe he was on drugs."You claim you know the CEO, but I'll prove you wrong. You'll be kicked out of work tomorrow like a trash. I'd like to see how this invisible

    On getting home, Tobin could already hear the voice of his in-laws. He had stepped out with Holly for a quick shopping and now, back home when he heard the voice of Rosa.Rosa was a lousy lady, just like her mother, Cami. Hailey was the only one different and calm, as well as her brother."This is a great opportunity here, why are you so dumb sister!" Rosa yelled out. She was tall and slender with a pretty face, though she had undergone some facial surgeries.All she was obsessed about was meeting rich people and going to rich people parties. Their family used to be rich before, however business was dying down and they had lost so many business partners.Even making Hailey the family CEO was almost useless, as their family owned nothing but a few properties and a couple of million dollar assets."Calm down, don't make a scene sister." Hailey said. She sighted Tobin and smiled. "You're, back honey."Just as Tobin was about to ask, he saw someone he never imagined to see. "David???" he
