One serene afternoon, David was relaxing in his home when his phone began to ring. He reached for it to see who it was."Oh, Sandra." His face widened with a beautiful smile. He answered the call, pressing the phone to his ear."Good afternoon, sir." Sandra's voice came with utmost respect from the other side of the phone."How are you, Sandra? I guess you are fine?" David asked."I'm okay, sir. I want to appreciate every single thing you've done in my life. I'm so grateful." Her voice was filled with gratitude."Oh, no, Sandra. I don't think this is necessary." David had a slight smile.'Huh? What? Did he just say my appreciation is not necessary? How? Who is this man? Does it mean $150 million means nothing to him?' While she was having the thought, she scolded herself.'What the heck am I even saying? If $150 million means so much to him, he wouldn't be able to give it out freely. I would like to know more about this man.'"I don't think it's right for me not to appreciate your gen
The store was specially designed in a modern way that looks so lovely and simple. David's eyes looked straight down till the end of the store and he couldn't believe his eyes.The way the shoes were showcased added more beauty to them. At this point, David couldn't hold it any longer as he commented, "This is the best I've ever seen!"Sandra, who had been watching the befuddlement in David's eyes, began to blush as he made the comment. She had butterflies in her belly at this time."Oh! I'm glad!" she cheers in excitement and wore a wide smile. "I'm glad I was able to put out my best.""You did, Sandra. This is wonderful! So brilliant!" The more David dropped those comments, the more Sandra was getting choked with excitement.She feels like screaming so loud till her voice will be heard on the next planet. Yes, that was how her mind was filled with excitement.She should have actually done the screaming right away! But that would be insane. Why does she have to scream in front of the
"It's nice that you're here, your attendants have been keeping us waiting since we arrived. We have come to ask for your fee. I will advise you to comply with us as usual!" A voice explained with so much audacity.The voice was coming from one of the gangsters who have been visiting Sandra's store for two days.Sandra's mood was ruined immediately upon having an encounter with them again; the joy and excitement in her body had vanished instantly.She swallowed a lump in her throat, searching for the right thing to say but couldn't find it. She was indeed annoyed with the irritating thugs before her now. She shifted her gaze away from the five gangsters at the entrance of the store to the few customers around, then to her worried-looking attendants.She understood the worries on her attendants' faces. The thugs must have been frustrating their lives since they arrived. That has always been their way.Sandra then returned her gaze to the thugs. The audacious guy who spoke had a tattoo d
"Pardon me for wasting your time, I don't mean to be rude. You can have the $10,000 and let me continue my business." Sandra pleaded. She was so frightened and scared."You don't need to plead anymore as we've already given you enough chances but you've misused them. This time, nothing can change what we have said," one of the thugs blurted from behind.'$30,000? Daily? Isn't that daytime robbery?' Sandra was panicking. 'How on earth would I make a profit on my business if I have to pay such an amount?' She was getting more worried."Yes! You heard him right! It's either you pay us the money or we shut down your store," the tattooed guy threatened again.'What sort of thing is this? Why is this getting more serious?' She complained in her heart.When the guys came around two days ago, they barged into the store looking horrifying just like they did today. Sandra was at the reception when they arrived."Who's the owner of this store?" That was the first question they asked.Sandra had
The customers, the attendants, and Sandra all had their gaze at the direction where the voice came from.Setting eyes on David, they all had different facial expressions. Sandra had her mouth wide open in shock and felt dissatisfied.She was shocked by the threat David threw at the gangsters. She understood he was trying to protect her, but what if things went south? The thugs numbered five, with one of them holding a very sharp knife.It was only David, he was trying to protect her. What if the other thugs also had more hidden weapons with them?She also felt dissatisfied to have David witness the ongoing mess in her store. She never invited him for that. She had invited him over to have a nice time around her beautiful store until the thugs came around to disturb their peace.She was so overwhelmed with shock that she couldn't think of anything as she remained frozen in the shocking moment.The attendants were staring at David with an inexplicable look. They all wished David wouldn'
A sudden shock swept over the store. Every single person in that store was totally drowned in shock. The only person excluded was David.From Sandra to her attendants. All the customers were in total shock too. The most surprising were the gangsters; they were all looking startled, especially the tattooed guy.Does it not worth it? For real, it's worth it! To them all, it seems David doesn't care about his life. It seems he already had a death wish but he needed someone to make the wish come to life.David had a gaze at them all, reading the utmost shock written all over their faces. He doesn't even care as he shifted his gaze back to the thugs who had all turned into statues at their positions.Despite David ordered them to allow the tattooed guy to do his worst, they were all still holding him tightly.'What happened? Are they afraid of him?' The customers and the attendants were just enjoying the movie before them.They couldn't just wait to watch this ticket-free movie until the e
David was wondering what had made him take the turn. Wasn't he man enough? It's obvious there is a reason behind his turn back.The speed he took towards him was crazier than he should just take a pause suddenly and make a turn.Rage was still so evident in Snake's eyes right now. His heart was pounding heavily.'It's a pity! How I wish I could show him a piece of what I'm made of!' This was echoing in Snake's head.He was gritting his teeth so roughly like he would grind them into particles. If there is a tool that measures anger, it will break down instantly if used to measure Snake's anger at that moment.His team already understands how he was feeling as one of them moved to him and pats his shoulder."I never knew you would be able to control your anger at such an extreme point. Don't take this matter into your head; it's obvious he only wanted to impress the lady."Snake turned slightly to look at the guy who was trying to calm his nerves and gave him a wicked grin before he mut
Sandra raised her head, looking at David with a very confused facial expression. 'Why do you sound so different from the man I used to know?' she questioned in her mind."Let me give it to them, at least for peace to reign," she said, but David wasn't ready for peace. Not that he wasn't peaceful, but the gangsters had proven themselves to be cheats.Why do they have to charge $10,000 every day, let alone $30,000? That's a daytime robbery, nothing else."You will not pay them a cent!" David's voice didn't sound like a joke; he was dead serious.Sandra was still puzzled that he actually meant his words. His expression showed nothing but total seriousness."I believe you know what you are asking for at this point?" Snake asked with a scornful look."Do you want to resume your threatening? Don't forget that your previous threats did nothing to me. It would be sad to inform you that any further threats from you will remain useless and ineffective."David was resolute with his words. He was
