“So, how’s the new chairman?”Floyd stopped staring at the documents when he heard a voice. He looked at the door and saw Aby approaching her.“Aby! Sit down!” he said gracefully. He put the papers down and hugged Aby. “How are you?”“Good. Just a bit stressed out.”“That’s too early?”Aby sighed. She sat down at the chair near Floyd’s table. Floyd then sat back in his chair and stared at Aby.“I know, this is too sudden. And you just got appointed. But I need your help now.”“What kind of help?”Aby looked away. She didn’t want to do this but she had to. Her uncle was already pressuring her family. She didn’t want them to want her family to lose their business.“I need your family to invest in us.”Floyd frowned a bit. Aby didn’t tell him anything about investing in their company. He sighed and interlocked his fingers.“I-I know this is sudden. But—” Aby sighed. “Okay. I’ll be honest with you. Our family is not in a good situation now. We might lose our business if you won’t help me.
Floyd woke up early to go back to his office. But even before he left, he received a call from his secretary.“Young master, your wife needs you.”Floyd looked at Johnson while fixing his necktie. “What happened?”“His Uncle is causing a scene in their company. Also, Leah told me to check your email. It’s done already.”Floyd sighed and stopped what he was doing. “I knew this would happen.” He shook his head. “Do I have any important meetings right now?”“Ahm, you have—”“Cancel it. Let’s go visit my wife.”Floyd finished fixing himself. He hurried out of the mansion and got into a car. Maybe that's why Aby can't tell him directly about his problem. Because it's embarrassing. But Floyd owes Aby a lot. And as they agreed he will help him. Not because she is his wife on paper, but because she is also his best friend.Before entering the building, he saw people holding placards in front of Chua's building.“What is happening here?”“I think they are protesting, sir. I’ve heard that the C
“He was just appointed, and he is already wasting money!” Carlo exclaimed. “He just invested at his wife’s company! We should do something about this, Father!”Arnel grunted. “I know. We’ve been ignoring the Chua’s proposal. And yet he even bought a stock for his wife?”“Tsk! I know that woman is just after our money!” Carla said.“But what can we do? He is now the chairman. He could do everything he wanted.” Crude took a sip from his glass.“You are not helping, Crude.” Carla glared at her brother. Crude just shrugged about it.“No… this should end now!”The siblings smiled as they saw the determination on their father’s face. They will never accept Floyd as their new master. They will take company no matter what.~~~“Is everything here?” Amethyst asked their head maid.“Yes, madam.”“Okay. I want everything to be perfect, okay?”“As you wish, Madam. You can trust us.”Amethyst smiled and let the head maid go. That was the time when Floyd went down from his room. He looked around an
“Where have you been?” Floyd stopped entering his room when he saw Aby inside. “Aby. You didn’t tell me you’re coming home.” Aby smiled. She put down the magazine she was reading to the table. Then she stood up and went to Floyd. She was about to kiss him on the cheeks when she smelled the alcohol he drinks. “Are you drunk?” Floyd shook his head. He closed the door and smiled at Aby. “Yeah… A bit. Danica brought me to a club and Nelson was there too. I can’t say no to him. You know…” “O… kay? I understand. Come on.” Aby helped Floyd to sit on the couch. “Let me prepare tea for you.” “No need, Aby.” Floyd grunted. “Sit with me.” Aby sighed. She sat beside Floyd. “How’s your company? Is it okay now?” Aby nodded. “Yeah. Actually, I wanted to say thanks again, that's why I’m here.” “It’s okay, Aby. I already told you.” “I know. But I think it’s still not enough. You can ask me a favor. Anything! I will do it.” Floyd chuckled. “Be careful what you wished for, Aby.” “Huh?” Aby f
'I'll be finished! Finally!' Johnson Floyd was relieved when he saw that the report he had been working on since morning was about to be finished. It was his fifth time revising it because his editor did not approve it. Saying that every line should still be changed. Floyd was a scriptwriter for the most prestigious television company in the country. “Oh, my gosh!” Floyd almost jumped from his chair when he heard his co-worker shout from the next cubicle. He stood up and went to Claire’s table. “What’s wrong?” Floyd asked worriedly. Claire was a pregnant co-worker of his, that's why he was a bit worried. He frowned when he saw that she was holding a phone and watching a video. “I’m fine!” Floyd touched his chest and shook his head. “I thought something bad happened to you!” he said in disbelief, even though he was relieved that Claire was fine. He was sleep-deprived and coffee was the only thing that made him awake. Maybe this was the reason why he was so jumpy these days.
Floyd rushed to the hotel where Roxane and Dwayne were right now. He was full of rage because of what he had just seen. He can’t let the mother of his son be married to another man! He knew that he was not as rich as Dwayne. But Roxane promised to be with him. They might not be married, but they are basically husband and wife. They have a son and live in the same house. He can’t let this happen. Floyd reached the hotel. He almost gasped when he saw the luxury hotel in front of him. He couldn’t even see the top of the building because it was too tall. He felt small when he realized that he could never bring Roxane here, no matter how hard he worked. Floyd tightened his grip and glared at the hotel entrance. Still, he can’t let Roxane cheat on him. He walked to the side of the hotel. The wall was made of hard glass. That’s why he can see what is inside. He tried to look around until he saw a woman and a man sitting at a round table. There were a few waiters at their side serving them
“Babe! Let’s go!” Roxane held Dwayne’s arms and tried to pull him inside. But later he continued to get out and watch the commotion. “What is going on here?! Release him!” Roxane grunted and was hesitant to go out. But Dwayne looked at her and signed to her to go out too. Roxane sighed and went out. She smiled at Dwayne. On the ground, Floyd stood up and faced the couple. He grinned and clenched his fists when he saw Dwayne’s hands at Roxane’s waist. Dwayne frowned when he noticed that Floyd was glaring at Roxane. He took his phone and opened his app again and started recording. “Do you know this man, babe?” Dwayne asked Roxane. The phone was pointing at Floyd but he was looking at Roxane. Immediately, there were a thousand views on his live video. There were comments too asking what was going on and who was the man in the video. “What is the meaning of this, Roxane?!” Floyd glared at Roxane. “Are you cheating on me?! What? Are you only playing me? Roxane! I did everything
After the commotion, Dwayne brings Roxane to their hotel room. She was still crying because of what happened. Dwayne then was too worried about his fiance. “Don’t worry. I will not let him get near you again,” Dwayne assured Roxanne. Roxanne sniffed and wiped her tears. She was sitting on the bed and Dwayne was kneeling in her front. “W-What if he does? I know him, Dwayne. Floyd will never stop!” Roxane exclaims and cries again. Dwayne sighed and sat down at her side. “I will fire him immediately so he cannot get near you anymore. I will hire some bodyguards for you too. No one can hurt you anymore now that you are my fiance. I will do everything for you to be safe.” A small grin went off Roxane’s lips. She continued crying. “I-I still have something to confess to you.” Dwayne frowns. He looks at Roxane and wipes her tears using his thumb. “What is it?” “Will it be okay? What if you wouldn’t want to marry me because of it?” He smirks. “Roxane. I love you and you only. I can ac
