The word hit Mr Joe and he immediately felt the impact. Tried to talk but the words ain't connecting. “Sir…. sir it's,.....”“Just answer me! Are you qualified to be a teacher with what you just displayed today?” Jordan Freeman asked again, his voice more frosty and mean.Mr Joe swallow hard trying to look for the right word to defend himself, one thing is for sure, he has to mind his speech in front of someone as powerful as Jordan Freeman. What baffles him is why is he taking the poor dirtbag side.“Sir it isn't what you think, you see, this boy bad reputation made me believe the allegation against him. He's the good for nothing mischievous scholarship boy in our college and …..”“Shut the hell up this instance!!” Jordan Voice struck before he could complete his sentence, completely red and vein popping out of his head.“It is very clear how unworthy of a teacher you are and I'll make sure your job ends here” Mr Jordan declared, authority evident in his voice.As a man with the prin
All eyes on the man identified as Ben Carlos. He is the senior manager at the Antique company and highly respected by all staff. Approaching with a strong aura that speaks authority, he stopped in his track and face Vincenzo expecting an answer.“Yes sir” he replied confidently breaking the silence before anyone could interrupt.Mr Joe wasn't buying any of his blabbing a and he won't let him give the college a bad image by complicating the issue and getting on the Bad side of Ben Carlos.“Just shut your mouth this instant,do you think Mr Ben is someone you can toy with? How dare you talk about paying up $10m or you think it's 10 cents you ungrateful scholarship boy”“He's out of his senses sir, please don't mind him” Mr Joe said, facing the senior manager to make him understand.“I'm afraid not, because I already believed him” Mr Carlos slammed back.”Now I'll appreciate you fulfill your part of his condition, which is the simplest thing to do”Everyone surprised at the turn out of th
The college had arranged a special expedition to surprise the students, it was a visit to the biggest Antiques collection company in the city. The students had always long for this trip because coming through the institution as an entity is their only hope of experiencing this unique site with amazing Antiques as they don't just take any visitors because they are private.Jason was however the happiest of all, not because of the experience he'll be having but for the perfect location to put Vincenzo in a big mess. Framing Vincenzo of breaking one or two antiques will surely ruin his already miserable life, he thought."Leave it to me, I'll do it" Richard cuts in. Earning a glare from the rest of the gang.Richard is one of the spoiled sons of a rich man who also enjoy oppressing the less privileged and is willing to join Jason's squad on campus just for validation.With this he's willing to do anything and now he's taking on the job to frame Vincenzo for breaking an expensive antique.
Anthony's ego seemed to have spiked up as he watched the younger man before him walk away. He's known for his brutality and no church rat was going to dare bring him down. As long as remained Sophia's benefactor, they will continue to do everything he asked."Stupid people. Imagine that boy trying to tell me what to do!" He continued to rant as he walked towards Kevin, shaking his head in disbelief. "Keep working!" He barked at the seemingly tired and worn out young men digging in the sun. He could care less.Kevin scoffed, although worry clouded his face. Soon, his phone rang and he gestured towards Anthony to give him a moment. "Hello?" He started. "Yes, I'm the representative for Anthony Stewart construction company. How may I help you?" There was a pause and Anthony's curiosity was now piqued."What do you mean the contract has been canceled and our property is being revoked?" Anthony's eyes widened as he broke out in sweat, perspiring really hard and pacing back and forth. "W
As soon as he returned from school, all the information he'd requested for in the morning was in his hands.There were a lot of orphanages with the name Safe Haven (which was very much expected), but with the description he'd given, the results had been narrowed down to the barest minimum; down to the orphanage he remembered. With a smile he skimmed through the pictures, the smile widening every second as his joy could not be contained. It soon vanished, however, when he stumbled upon a channel later that day as he switched television programs. On the screen was a headline depicting an orphanage's need for financial support, and he was horrified to find that it was no other institution but Safe Haven."The Proprietor, Sophia Poe, is here with us, and she'd be speaking more on the situation at hand." Vincenzo sucked in a breath when he saw the former headmistress' face appear on the screen. Despite her trying to appear calm, a glance into her eyes revealed a storm brewing. But her v
"Hey, dimwit!" Vincenzo sat up almost immediately, then looked around the room, puzzled for a second and relieved the next. It'd been a dream, thank goodness. Because he was pretty sure he wasn't going to survive the head bash that Dream Scarr was about to give him before he jolted awake. Sighing, he ran a hand through his hair and looked around the room. Due to his time in the prison, he kept looking over his shoulder every four minutes, and getting into a defensive mode whenever he felt people approach him. At that moment, he was surveying the room in case someone had snuck in while he slept. He wouldn't put it past Scarr to not keep a grudge. After a short while, he got out of bed and into the bathroom, pouring water on his face while revisiting the dream he'd just had. Sometimes he wondered if he was truly healing.Hours later he sat at the dining table pouring over the news, when he caught glimpse of a report on television displaying what triggers his rough past. The orphan
"You could not even finish studying even though you were on scholarship. I wouldn't pray to be such an unfortunate poor scumbag like you so, please, forget we ever had anything.""I have no use for someone like you who I'm sure will die poor. You were simply a tool and i enjoyed using you for my father ambition."These words kept replaying in his head as he picked up the fountain pen on the side of the papers. The people who had gathered round him before were now gathered around him again as he sat at a garden dinner table. All the employees of the mansion in which he was, maids, cooks, housekeeper, butler, chauffeur, personal nurses and so on, had an expectant look on their faces."She called me an unfortunate poor scumbag," he repeated to himself as he stared directly ahead. "Let's see what happens when you realize how wrong you are, Lilian."Vincenzo struck his signature over each paper, carefully reading through and grunting in satisfaction. All of these belongs to him now. And as
"Vincenzo, you have a visitor!" A stern voice called from the entrance of the dark solitary cell where Vincenzo was put since the fight he had with Scar. His brows shot up and his eyes lit as he heaved a sigh of relief. Finally, Williams remembered him and decided to get him out. Although, he was furious and he resolved to take it out on the man, he thought of the possible chances that him going to jail and Lilian announcing her wedding with Jason was all a test. It was all for Vincenzo to prove he was man enough to get married to Lilian. "You have just an hour, Sir. I'll be back to take him in." The guard said before turning to leave him with a strange man. The man was tall and slender, wearing a shiny black jacket over an outfit he was pretty sure would cost a fortune. His blonde hair with white streaks indicated he must be close to fifty years of age and if he hadn't smiled at him, he would have suspected he was in a bigger trouble. Surely, Williams must have sent him."Hello,"
It has been exactly a month. Or maybe more than a month as Vincenzo has already lost count. He had been through hell and at this point, all hope is lost. When weeks passed and nobody had even bothered to visit not to talk of bring him out, he figured then that maybe the guard had been right and he was going to spend two years in prison. He felt betrayed, duped and pained. Not even Lilian, the love of his life had come to visit. He never thought they'll be a day like this in his life.The line at the cafeteria was always the same routine everyday which Vincenzo had come to hate. It was impossible for him to miss the daily foods as they were given only once a day. But every day would often come with beatings, bullying and wounds. This particular day was going to be the same, he was sure. So, he had managed to sneak a small picker into his pocket while on the line."Hey, dimwit!" Scarr, the big man who used to be his cell mate yelled. Vincenzo knew he was referring to him so he tried a
