Today was the day of the performance and all the people gathered in this place were bustling with life. Mark walked out from the bus along with his team and a group of reporters gathered over them.

"Welcome, can you please tell us how you feel about this day? Do you think that your team can come out victorious?"

"The team leader, who is it? Are your team so prepared to crush the other teams?"

Lots of questions were thrown at them and they didn't even know the one to answer inside. Seeing that things would soon get out of control the security came and drove off the reporters.

Mark and his teammates were placed in a small room for them to go through their plans and rest a bit before the stage is set.

"Mark, You better do a good job and don't mess up in front of the crowds. It's our company we are talking about and this is going worldwide," A colleague said to him with annoyance on his face as the others glared at Mark.

    Mark walked out from the clutches of the people who wouldn't stop trying to get him into their companies or businesses. He wasn't interested in any of their offers when it was the one that would change his life for the better.He would rather work with what his heart desires and the thing that would give him happiness."Sir," He greeted the manager when he saw the man smiling at him from afar."You are the rare one. You didn't get discouraged when your teammates ridiculed you and you didn't choose to condemn them," the manager said immediately after he saw Mark.Mark shook his head at his assumptions."You got me wrong there. I would have joined one of the companies that offered their interest in me to know how they have been running their businesses to add ideas to mine. I didn't decide to join them because I still have other plans. I can't join another place when I am still trying to fit into my own company. So please don't take me for the kind person," He said to the man.The manag

I'll find a way to come up with some money for us to get a better and more comfortable apartment," Mark said to her. Michelle glanced at him for a while then smiled. Mark held her hand and suddenly the atmosphere became serene," Remember what I promised you before?" He asked quietly that one could barely hear him unless you were nearer to him."What was that? There are lots of promises you made to me," She chuckled softly at him."Oh, I didn't know that, " He muttered but still he shook his head at her." You remembered I promised you that I will make sure that you get your inheritance back, Right? "He asked her softly and cupped her cheek. Michelle was stunned as she stared at him dazed."I still do. But, you don't have to stress yourself

Half an hour later the Uber dropped him at his house, he alighted and went to his house."Hey, Sweetheart. You are back? How was work today? How was the resignation letter? Did he accept it?" She bombarded him with questions immediately."Hey Tigress, calm down. Ask the questions one at a time, do you want my brain to explode?" Mark laughed as he headed towards the sitting room tiredly."Well everything went well but…you know I am one of the core employees in the company so it isn't that easy for me to leave without a good reason. I'll have to meet the CEO when he comes back and he alone can permit me to leave," Mark lied to his wife and she gave him a worried look."Sweetheart, I hope that wouldn't cause some trouble. I mean what if the man gets angry at you for leaving on such short notice?"
