Jasper doesn't know what to think of this. Andrew is the last person that he would expect to see at his dad's house. He looks around, waiting to see if the grand guest is here, but no, it's just Andrew. “What the fuck is going on?” Jasper snorts as he looks around. “Do you have a new gig as a driver? Did you drive my parents’ visitors here?” Andrew cocks his head with amusement on his face. This makes Jasper appear even more irritated. “Ahh, Mister Carter!” His father appears at the door and shakes Andrew's hand with so much respect. Andrew just stands by the side, wondering what's happening. “We have been waiting for hours! You came alone?! That's very unusual for a big man like you!” His father and Andrew are laughing as if they have known each other for a long time. Jasper is about to correct his father and tells him that he is wrong. Andrew is not a ‘big man'. His father leads Andrew into the house and he turns around to caution Jasper with anger. “How did you stand ther
Jasper’s eyebrows shoot up in surprise. He throws his head back and laughs so hard and he hits his hand on the table. This is the craziest thing that he has heard in a long time. His parents have got to be joking if they believed that. The Great Overlord is the most talked about soldier in the entire world. He has single handedly started and ended wars. He is the only one that can make heartless tyrants piss in their pants. How can Andrew Carter be that man?! Never! Not even in a thousand years! He has never seen someone as useless and poor as Andrew! He remembers that Andrew tried to pull some stunts when he first met the man, but he never bought it. Those soldiers that he hired to try to scare them when he came back! They didn't buy it at all! He wasn't deceived then, he won't be deceived now. “Mum, Dad, telling me that Andrew Carter is the overlord is going to be harder than trying to convince me that big foot exists!” He huffs. “I have known Andrew for months now and I can
James Jackson was at the scene of the shooting and even though the police were able to rush the scene and detain everyone to get to the root of the matter, they didn't dare to touch James. He got into his car and drove straight to his father's house, fuming with so much bottled up anger. When he gets to the house, he parks the car in a rough manner and almost destroys the plants that are kept by the driveway side for beautification. He gets into the house and the first thing that he does is to kick down one of the small tables that hold figurines from the country of china. It crashes so loudly and even though it's so late at night, it wakes everyone up. As he goes about destroying anything his hands get laid on, the servants appear and hide behind the doorway. They are scared of him, they know that if they get any closer, he is going to hurt them too. “James, what do you think you are doing?” His father descends from the stairs, he is wearing a robe. “I'm so sick of all these
Andrew receives a text from Saint that says that they have to meet immediately, he has to discuss something with him. Andrew suggests they meet at the house because he has become very busy nowadays. He locks himself in the study of his house and handles some army work that needs dire attention. Saint won't come to the house, he asks for Andrew to meet him at a restaurant in a few hours time and Andrew agrees. His junior brother sounds very serious. When he gets to the restaurant, it's filled up because of just how popular and nice it is. People are literally hanging out outside, waiting for someone to cancel so that they can take their table. Saint has booked a table at one of the most comfortable sections of the restaurant, but he doesn't even have a glass of water on the table. Whatever it is that has brought Saint here today, it has to be very serious. Andrew sighs as he lets himself sit down on the available seat. That's when Saint raises his head, his brows are pulled down
Mister William Sanchez asks to see Ruby in his office immediately. He warned her to be there in the next five minutes or he is going to take away the projects that have been appointed to her. So, Ruby has no other option than to show up very early in the morning. It's just eight and some of the workers haven't clocked in yet. Ruby reaches the door of her grandfather's office and she immediately feels her heart grow with anxiety. Each time that he has asked to see her, he always either insults her parents, or he threatens to take her job. She inhales deeply and runs her hand through the smooth strands of her hair. She knocks on the door and walks into her grandfather's office. He is sitting at the table, he is bent over the work and his pen is quivering as he writes. He shouldn't be here, he should be in the home for assisted living. He looks up at her, the normal snarl that she has gotten used to is on his face. “Good morning, grandfather,” she bows to him. “Oh, enough with th
Everyone is so shocked that they immediately freeze. Even Ruby has her jaw on the ground!The anonymous partner has never been present in the attendance of all their meetings, but each time that he has to make a decision, it somehow ends up favoring Ruby! Ruby holds her hands over her mouth. She doesn't know if she should be happy or she should burst into tears. This is so overwhelming for her. Adriana stands up with a yell of anguish. Her face is full of veins and she is so red with anger. “Ruby?! Out of all the people in the room, I am supposed to believe that he took one look at Ruby and decided that she is the one?!” She screams with vexation. Frederick boredly bats his eyes as he looks at her. He is so used to her kiddish tantrums that he is not fazed by them. “Miss Adriana, the anonymous partner, owns the larger percentage of the empire and he has done what he chose with it.” He says. “Do you have a problem with it?!” “Do I have a problem with him picking the least compet
Doreen holds her head as she tries to get her sense together, but Rosie has gone on to even step on her repeatedly. “Carlos!! Carlos!! The thief came back!” Doreen is moved to tears. She wants to beg this cruel woman to have mercy on her, because she is not a thief, but she can't make the words out. Rosie feels like she has hit the jackpot. Since Doreen started working for the family, all that Rosie has done is complain about her back, but now she has no problem going down and punching Doreen like a tiger! The family downstairs, the wife, husband, and their twin daughters that are aged about thirteen. They are screaming so loudly that even their dogs join. Rosie has put her hands around Doreen's neck and she is trying so hard to squeeze the life out of her.Doreen's eyes are blinded with tears, she doesn't deserve this treatment because she is not a thief, she is just here to respectfully resign from her job as a housekeeper. Even though the rest of the Santos family can see h
Doreen doesn't know what else to do, she immediately bursts into tears. The police have come and they are going to take them away. How is she supposed to go to jail? They are going to take Andrew too! How is Thomas and Ruby supposed to react?! “Please, I beg you, leave Andrew out of this! He didn't do anything!” She rubs her hands together in tears. “What the hell is going on?” Andrew looks at them. The police come to them and the father jumps up, he is the first to start screaming accusations. “Thank God that you have come, officers. This woman is a thief. She was our housekeeper, but she stole some of our stuff and ran away weeks ago! Arrest her and her accomplice, this man!” “Thief?” Andrew scoffs. “That's the most stupid thing I have heard in a very long time!” “He is lying. She is our housekeeper, but she ran away when she stole our money and gadgets!” “Housekeeper? Why do you people keep calling her that?” Andrew frowns. “Doreen is not a housekeeper. She is an interior d
