CHAPTER 17: UNFAVORABLE TURNS OF EVENTS.Justin gently slowed down the Bugatti, and parked by the side of the road. He sighed frustratedly, as he never foresaw such an outcome.The police man alighted from his patrol car and approached Justin's car. He knocked on his side window, and Justin responded by winding down his window."Hello officer," Justin greeted, smiling."Hello sir. "I'm pretty sure you know why you've been pulled over, right?" the police asked calmly, looking at Justin. "Not really. Did I do something wrong?" Justin asked, feigning ignorance. "Yeah. You violated one of the driving rules in the state of New York, going beyond the speed limit," the police man answered. "Oh, did I? I didn't notice," Justin replied, laughing nervously. "I must have got caught up in the moment. I truly am sorry about that officer. It won't happen again.""You bet," the police man retorted. He took a closer look at the car Justin was driving, nodding his head, as he pursed his lips. Somew
CHAPTER 18: FAMILY PRIVILEGES.Gomez was driven to the station by one of his men immediately he got the call from the patrol officer. Arriving the station, the driver parked the SUV and Gomez quickly alighted from the vehicle, walking straight into the station gallantly.Some of the officers at the station gave Gomez derogatory and disdainful stares. But he couldn't care less. Rather, he walked on unintimidated.Gomez made his way to the office of the chief of police. Walking there, he sighted Justin in a cell on the right hand side. They both exchanged looks, saying nothing to the other. He also saw the officer that had called him. They nonverbally greeted each other with a nodded, as he walked to the office. The officer quickly followed after Gomez into the office. Justin carefully observed all that transpired, taking note of them. He sighed in relief, waiting to soon be released from that holding cell.A few minutes later, Justin saw the officer walking out of the office looking
CHAPTER 19:DILEMMA OF FAMILY. "Home cooked meals are the best," Joey said looking at the mother. "You are the best cook in the whole wide world.""Ain't that right dad?" Joey said smiling and they all laughed."Yeah, she sure knows how to work her magic in there all the time," Mr Adams said looking straight into his wife's eyes, as he grabbed her hand with a smile on their both their faces."Thanks, honey," she appreciated her husband."Am sure Samantha will do equally as good as your mom," Mr Adams said looking at Joey. "Ain't that right, Samantha?""Yeah, of course sir," Samantha replied, forcing a smile, but it looked awkward. Joey noticed how cold Samantha had been while they had dinner, but he shrugged it off, looking away from her. Mrs Adams also noticed it. The subtle exchange between the two of them."What's with that look? Are you two not planning to get married?" Mrs Adams asked, gazing at Samantha."Mom!" Joey grumbled."Can you give them some breathing space?" Mr Adams r
CHAPTER 20: PROPOSITION.Samantha knocked on the door, but there was no response from within. She felt it strongly in her gut that Joey was in there, with someone. She knocked once again, saying nothing, and this time also, there was no answer. She got furious and knocked on the door harder this time. "Who the hell's trying to take down the door?"Samantha heard Joey's voice from within the room, further infuriating her, and causing her to bang on the door even harder, saying nothing. She wanted to implement the element of surprise."Fucking chill will you?" Joey said angrily as he approached the door. He opened the door slightly leaving the hook on the door, just to be safe, as he peeked to see who it was. "Samantha!" His eyes widened in utter shock at her sight. Her eyes peered at him hatefully."So, you're meeting with a client huh? In a motel room?" "Yeah. It- I- It was more comfortable to uh, to meet here," Joey gulped, stuttering."Is that so?" Samantha said."Baby, who's a
CHAPTER 21: IT CAN'T BE!Justin was up, bright and early the next morning. He took his bath and wore something casual but nice, which was made available by Mr Bishop. Surprisingly, it was the right fit for him. He wore a simple a pair black jean pants, and an ash turtle-neck shirt. He looked at himself in the mirror, admiring what he saw. Then, he headed downstairs. As he walked through the house, the attendants and guards bowed, greeting him. He smiled at them, nodding his head in reciprocation of their salutation. As he got to the dining area, he found Mr Bishop already there, having breakfast, casually dressed a bathrobe."Good morning," Justin greeted with a friendly smile. "Justin, you're up early. Hope you slept well?" Mr Bishop asked."Sure, I did," he replied, sitting down beside Mr Bishop.The kitchen attendants hurriedly brought his breakfast for him, greeting him as they served it. He smiled, appreciating them.Mr Bishop observed Justin's courtesy, taking note of it. "
CHAPTER 22: DAY AT THE OFFICE."Justin?"Joey was awestruck when he realized that the individual standing so freely with his over all boss was none other than Justin."But how?" he wondered. "How in the world is- I mean, what is he doing here, and with Mr Newton Bishop?" Joey cracked his head trying to fathom what the hell it was that Justin was doing in the company of such a man of affluence.Suddenly, he got jealous and angry, even having not figured out why Justin was with Mr Bishop. He still felt Justin didn't deserve to be in the company of Mr Bishop. He felt that he deserved to be the one there. "Please sir, let me relieve you of this obligation and take your guest around the department," Mr Cornell requested."As you wish," Mr Bishop gestured with his hands, that he carries on. "Thank you sir," he appreciated, then turned to Justin. "So, this is the accounts department. There is no dime spent in Cap Industries that we aren't aware of. And we pride ourselves as a department
CHAPTER 23: NEW BOUNDARIES."Seeing how invested you are in the welfare and smooth running of Cap Industries, well, not just Cap Industries alone, ever considered taking up the leadership of the company?" Mr Bishop asked."I'm sorry, you mean leadership, and not just working for you?" Justin raised his eyebrows as he tilted his head, wondering."Yeah. I mean, you'll still be working for me, but at an executive level," Mr Bishop clarified."Phew! I- I don't know what to say," Justin responded, not expecting that at all."You were perceptive and observant enough to spot the flaws within the two businesses, things I had missed," Mr Bishop continued."Your judgement will be impeccable, since you're not sentimental about the assessment of the credibility of my workers. And that's why I am very certain you'd make a great CEO."Justin's eyes widened in surprise. "You want me to be the CEO?" "Of course, who else would I rather entrust my affairs to, if not my competent son?"Mr Bishop notice
CHAPTER 24: SUBTLE THERAPY.Justin looked intently at Agnes. There was no doubt about the fact that she was beautiful. All who gazed upon her could tell at an instance of her beauty. She carried herself on her averagely busty curvaceous body frame. Justin could tell she was a regular at a gym. "Excuse me, I asked if I could get you anything," she reminded Justin. "No, I'm okay. I don't need anything."As a matter of fact, he did need something. He was a bit hungry, but he sure wasn't going to be asking this stranger to meet his needs, even though he could. He didn't like the way she seemed to be groveling around him. Or was he mistaking her actions for something it wasn't? Justin gave her the benefit of the doubt. Either way, he was done trying to get familiar with any girls anytime soon, after his experience with Samantha. "Okay, but if you do, you know where to find me," Agnes said, running her eyes all over Justin seductively as she walked away, making extra effort to wiggle
