Rex smirked and gave the lady a disdainful glare. "Are you sure of what you're saying?" he asked."Ye.. yes, he did," she replied, her voice trembling.Immediately, there was a brief silence between them, and Rex stared at the lady. As he was reasoning some thoughts in his memory, he wondered what could have resulted in the lady keeping the issue for so long and decided to let him know about it just today when he promoted Mr. Wood. Of course, she looked and acted suspiciously."Alright, I've heard you; I'll know what to do about it," he replied, flung the spectacles back on his eyes, and stormed off."Rivalry is the last thing to be allowed in this organization, and anyone I find out is partaking in it, they'll be fired, because when such starts, the company would not be working well, then there would be no one aim and energy because everyone is not in the good term," he muttered as he was heading to his car.The issue he just sorted out seemed to him to be the highest achievement he
BIRMINGHAM CITYOn a huge island, in the middle of the ocean, was set a majestic palace. This estate belonged to one of the most powerful business tycoons in the world, Mr. Alphonsus.Mr. Alphonsus was seen exploring the estate with his securities; it had not been up to two days since he had just acquired it, making it number thirty-two in his landed properties."I must confess that this is the most profitable investment I've made in my life, both in houses and other things, excluding my businesses," he remarked, gently sipping the liquor on the plastic cup in his hand while Spid and two other security men were escorting him around the estate. Jackson was fired two weeks ago after he kept involving himself in suspicious acts; if not, he would have been the one to take the Spid position."Celebrities and influential men will surely like to rent apartments here," he muttered."Spid?" Yes, master," he answered, and he ran forward to the old man."We made a mistake," Mr. Alphonsus remarke
"Wai... Wait, you mean the estate I'm residing in?" Rex stuttered, his voice oscillating."Exactly, you heard me correctly," the old man replied.Rex's jaw dropped upon hearing this; he never knew the apartment he had been paying millions for was linked to his grandfather!"Well, it's still going in the same pocket, so I'm not losing anything," he mumbled after feeling he had been spending money living as a tenant on his estate."But you never told me you have any property somewhere near the campus; how and when did you acquire the estate?""Well, it's weird to say that I don't even know all my properties in my memory; that was why I pressured you to take the lead so it wouldn't be scattered or others would reap it after I may have died," he replied, gently hitting his fingertips on the desk."So how did you get the information, Grandpa?"The old man chuckled for a while before glaring back at him. "You did not notice Jackson's absence since you arrived here, right?" he questioned."Oh
"This car has been following me since I bumped into this road; is the person even going to the same location as me?" He thought.However, after several kilometers of driving, when he noticed the car was still following him, he came to a halt just so the car could pass so he could be able to drive freely because he was scared of anything happening.Luckily, the car sped by and passed him. With peace of mind, he turned the car's engine on and drove off to his estate. It was not yet a long drive, and he came across the same car. It was parked as if it had a fault."What the hell is the meaning of this?" Rex wondered.This time, he came up with a trick; he made up his mind to know who the person behind the car was and the person's intention.He parked his car right in front of the neatly parked car.(Knock)The person refused to answer at first, but after much knocking from Rex, he finally succumbed and opened the car door. Meanwhile, it was Spid. He parked in order to wait for Rex to pass
"Grandpa, are you done dressing? We need to go to his house early in order to meet him. You know he is a businessman, too. Regardless of being a manager in the company I just purchased, he may have other renowned companies under his name secretly." Rex said, as his grandpa was taking much longer than expected to dress."Almost done, Son! I'll be out in a jiffy," his grandfather remarked.Rex decided to keep himself busy while waiting for the old man since he had refused to dress faster. He sat on the sitting room chair and brought out his phone. He unlocked it, connected his headset, and started watching his newly purchased comedies from his favorite comedians.As his mind was glued to the short videos, he did not even realize when his grandfather came out and sat opposite him.The old man thought Rex was doing something important, so he decided not to disturb him. Unbeknownst to him, Rex was waiting for him with the videos."Are you not yet true to what you're doing?" Mr. Alphonsus s
"Wa – what's going on here?" Rex stuttered.He was surprised to see someone who seemed to be Mr. Darius, twin brother."Mr. Darius, who is this?" he managed to utter."Oh, he is my twin brother; I'm the oldest among us; we look identical, right?" Mr. Darius let out a grin.The young man was dressed in thuggish, rugged jeans with a black singlet and a handkerchief tied on his forehead. He walked past them and gave Rex a disdainful glance as if he had had a problem with him previously; however, he did not even utter a single word to them, talk more of greeting them.Rex's eyes were glued on him, and his jaw dropped as he watched the young man walk over to the gate."Mr. Rex, I'm really sorry for his mischievous acts; that's how he behaves; don't put that in mind, please." Darius gulped and apologized after he saw the shocked expression on Rex's countenance."Oh, that's fine; I was just admiring his features." Rex lied; he didn't want his friend to realize what he was thinking."He looks
"But sir, aren't you supposed to visit first so you can put your policy in place and let us know what you think of Polite? If we just continue, it can cause trouble between us," Mr. Darius from the other end said."Alright, I've heard you, Darius, but a day's function of the company can't bring misunderstanding between us; I have a lot to do, and my visit there could only be possible next week," Rex explained."Alright, sir, no problem," Mr. Darius from the other end of the call agreed.Rex hung up the phone and headed inside the majestic building; however, it was already 9 a.m."Grandpa, aren't you attending the appointment anymore? Rex asked upon seeing his grandfather sitting on his relaxation sofa chair while watching a movie."Well, I expected us to return before 8:00 a.m., but look at the time now; remember I earlier told you that I was supposed to attend the appointment before 9:00 a.m., so I decided to leave it instead of going late," his grandfather enunciated.Rex sighed. He
"Rex, to be honest, I'm really short on words, and your action still baffles me.""It's nothing, sir. It's within my reach, so I have to give it out," Rex replied humbly."Well, you can witness how beautiful our school premises are looking now, making it more beautiful than any other university in this U.K.; I'm really delighted," the Chancellor retorted."I'm more delighted, sir," Rex replied."Hold on," the school Chancellor replied, calling his messenger.He sent the messenger to assemble a few of the upper echelons of the school.Within a few minutes, they convened."I think it's yet time to make what we concluded known to Rex and also make it official to all the students; at least, it would motivate some of them to be hospitable."They made a brief clap in unison before he continued."Rex, you have been awarded the most influential student; here is your bronze award," he stated, stretching his hand to hand Rex the neatly designed medal.As soon as Rex stretched his hand and recei
