“Young master, there is something you should know,” Steph said over the phone in a binding tone.Micheal said nothing as he didn't want to disturb his sleeping wife.Steph is also not in a hurry as he knows his young master might be with the resting young mistress by now.“What is it?” Micheal asked as soon as he walked to stand close to the window, out of his wife's reach.“The Kincaids had already left the hospital and it seems that Aaron doesn't look happy” Steph reported.Micheal chuckled, “Why am I not surprised? Just leave those two for now and focus on more pressing matters. I need everything about the auction next week”“Sure Sir,” Steph said and hung up.

At the hospital… Emily has already wakened and can now differentiate between reality and dreams. “Had my husband arrived?” she asked the nurse on duty. “No ma’am, your husband left some minutes before you woke up. But he specially instructed this nurse to take care of madam as my life depended on it. Do not worry ma’am, I will make sure you feel comfortable and not in need of anything” Seeing the nurse react in such a manner, Emily might be from a rich and influential family but she is still a bit not used to stuff like this. How many years has it been since one called her “madam”? Thinking of the person who had made this happen, a happy smile appeared on her face as she tried not to let the nurse see. But the nurse could already see through her. “Seeing madam like this, she might be thinking of the master. It’s truly a heavenly blessing to be married to such a fine and considerate man” Hearing the nurse’s words, Emily could hear the jealousy as well as the appreciation in he

“You are always trying to speak up for that Bryce person, but you do not see things from your family’s perspective. You always wanted to have your way since you were a child and at first, I thought it was okay. After all, it will make you a strong person before others . You have always been smart and understand what to do at the right time. But now I am beginning to wonder if that is a blessing in disguise or a curse” Venice said in one breath. “You should know I have the family’s best interest at hand. You can’t simply expect me to do things that I know are way out of line. Mother please …” Emily tried to reason with her mother again, but that only seemed to fuel her anger. “You have the family’s best interest at hand? You think, that getting married without anyone knowing is having the family’s best interest at heart. Running away with him to the court to sign your marriage certificate, is something I know a smart person like you will never do. But hell no, you did exactly that.

“Hu… hu” Venice stammered. Aaron angrily stormed into the hallway and yanked her on her feet. “What is the meaning of this? I thought you would be smart enough to know when to stop. When did you start being so stupid, huh.” Venice looked back in shock and saw Micheal with a smirk on his face. Her heart dropped in fear, “I… I…” she stammered. “I don’t need your explanation. If you want to sink to the button alone, you can do that. Don’t you dare affect the whole family? Darius is now in jail still waiting for his release and here you are creating another trouble. I don’t want any other problem, go apologize to Emily and Micheal, and let’s go home, now” Aaron commanded. Venice looked at him in shock and stood up with an annoyed look, “You want me to apologize to them? Why should I do that? I am their mother and I can do whatever I want. If they still don’t do what I asked of them then they can start thinking of not being a part of the family anymore “ Aaron wished he could just

The rest of the day went by as peacefully as it could. Aaron and Venice sure took Pete's threat seriously this time. Micheal indeed had a lot of things to do at the company. Now that he is in charge, he has to make up for all those years he has missed while not knowing his real identity. He must admit that Steph did a very good job taking everything upon himself till he got back. For he would have had to start from scratch. “Boss, the new recruitment for this month has already been submitted. Do you want me to go through every single one of them “ Pete asked. He held the information of each applicant and could apprehend why his boss would be interested in the recruitment of new members. This is the job of the HR and as the big boss, he didn’t need to stress himself too much on this. “Mm,” Micheal said silently. Without lifting his head stretched out his hand. With no other option, Pete placed the document in his hand and asked, “Boss, I still don’t understand why you want

“Mr. Marcus, you are going to give me an answer to what I just said. I would like to start working now if you don’t mind” Micheal said trying to act in ignorance to his sudden change. “That will not be a problem. But I still don’t understand why you should be here for such a matter. Is it that the big boss has nothing else for you to do upstairs?” Marc asked. Micheal was beginning to be annoyed with this nosy person. What happened to the intimidating and dreadful HR department? Can it be that they have lost their spark and just sit around doing nothing? What is the meaning of this? Marc could see the change on Michael's face and knew that he was getting annoyed. “You don’t have to answer if you don’t want to. I just..…” He tried to explain while still smiling. “Mr.Marc, I am here on behalf of the big boss. You and I should know already that the big boss does things none of us can understand… Ah,” Micheal paused and smiled lightly, “ I just remembered that you have never seen o

The old Emily would have stopped her from making fun of Kendrick. But with the change in her thanks to Micheal, she knew she could never let herself be taunted anymore. She stared hard at Kendrick who was having an unusual smile on his face and smirked. “Emily, I thought people who “own” this company do not need to see the receptionist before they enter. Ah, what is wrong with people today? Can’t they just see those who are more important and those who are not” Rita teases without holding back. “I wish I knew too,” Emily said trying to restrain herself from laughing out loud. Kendrick turned with a sharp loom in his eyes and asked, “Who are you talking about? It can’t be me, right? For I do not miss words with people with short sightseeing” The receptionist had a calm look on his face as he stared at the show before him. It seems the showdown in this company is becoming more interesting. “Do you hear a dog barking?” Rita asked. “I thought I heard one too. Its breath smells ba
