Davide couldn't stop staring at the office even though the blinds were restricting his ability to see into the office.As the coffee touched his lips, he got a wave of anxiety. He had no idea what they were talking about in there but he could bet his lofe on it that nothing good was going to come out of it.Earlier he had called Patrick a hypocrite and he was only stating facts but he knew that Patrick would turn the story around on him anf make him look like he was thw bastard that was talking ill of his boss.Davide was fed up of the games they played, even if Patrick wasn't the prick he was, Mr Lee wouldn't even allow Davide go just like that. He would do anything possible to humiliate him, to make him hate everything. They preached about loyalty but they were the complete opposites. Davide wondered how many other people had gone through the same thing that he was goinh through. He looked around yhe office as if he coukd see the person that had been wrongly accused by their boss
Davide was extremely surprised, he knew Mr Lee wouldn't be able to fire him but he hadn't been expecting that Mr Lee would say something like this.This hatred had sprung up from.his ego being wounded by Davide after he had told his idea to Miss Donalds, it was very annoying to Davide that still, Mr Lee had kept such a thing in his heart like he was a petty bastard.Meanwhile, Patrick was just a nobody who wanted to be somebody and those aspects of himself, he was busy projecting them on Davide. He was jealous of Davide, the latter was loved and had a very excellent physical feature, meanwhile the former was a bit ordinary.But Davide knew Patrick's bitterness towards him ran deeper than that, it was something else that Davide could not understand but he was sure enough that it tilted towards envy.However, he kept asking himself what he could possibly have that would make Patrick envious of him. Patrick was intelligent, he had no tenets but he was intelligent and wasn't that enough
Davide looked at Zeta's face, her expression was unreadable like a blank paper but to him it was quite funny, he let out a soft chuckle before shaking his head and turning back to his drink.He felt that Zeta was only trying to mock him, probably reminding him that there was only a way out but if he took it then he would forever live his life thinking that he was a coward.Davide read such a deep meaning into Zeta's words. It didn't help that he was so insightful, he wanted to do something else for his life, he didn't want the things Mr Lee and Patrick were doing to him.to affect him as much as it did.He had always wanted to experience the life of someone who works a stable job and would receive a stable income. However, he woke up one day and he was suddenly tossed into this world.He became a billionaire overnight but still had to live as someone who worked a stable job. Davide was not complaining, he was just disappointed over Mr Lee and Patrick. He couldn't even guess that there
Davide was speechless, he didn't know how to react to what Zeta said neither could he even think.of what to say. The look in her eyes was intense and caught him by surprise.Zeta kept eye contact with him for a while, it was like she hated looking anywhere else that wasn't him and suddenly Davide found himself on a spot.He cleared his throat and broke the staring contest he had going on with Zeta."Thank you for being worried, Zeta. It was stupid of me to make a joke out of it".Zeta cleared her throat too and moved a few steps away from him. Seconds ago she couldn't look anywhere else except his eyes but now, she was busy looking everywhere else except at him."It's okay," she said. "I was pretty intense". Davide smiled at her but she couldn't see, her eyes were darting across the room searching for what wasnt searching for her."I'm gonna go check on the nurse, she should be here already". Zeta walked out of the room, she didn't spare a glance at him, but instead just dashed out o
Few minutes later, Davide decided that it was time that he went back home. He had had enough of hospitals and he also didn't want to be constantly reminded that there may be people who were set on killing him.Though some people might find it thrilling, but he did not. Davide didn't like to be on the headlines of news, he didn't like the thrill of running for his life. Having been targeted just that evening was enough thrill to last Davide a lifetime. He had been shot at, what other thrill could he want for himself.And with the assassination attempt, he was forced to remember his parents. He had not even given it much thought before, it never really bothered him that he was an orphan but now everything seemed to remind him that his parents were dead and not just that, they had been murdered.It could mean that, if their life hadn't been targeted, Davide could've grown up with them. Davide could've remembered his mother for her warmth and his father for his support, he might've even h
Davide watches how Cassie's countenance changed, she didn't look like she was interested in having that conversation with Davide.But the look in Davide's eye was too great, she couldn't hold herself back.Davide saw how reluctant she was about answering the question. He thought that probably there was a huge reason, a very serious one that promoted her to hate Zeta the way she did. However, Davide couldn't think of any at the moment, minutes ago he had introduced the two women to each other and from the way they acted, it was like they had known of each other before. Though cassie had said she usually see Zeta around but it felt as if it ran deeper than that. That somehow, the woman had had a sort of confrontation in the past that resulted in this animosity they felt.Davide was starting to feel very weird, if in fact they had a kind of issue that has influenced the way they acted around each other, Davide was sure that they would tell him to choose.He knew they weren't stupid enou
Davide was so shocked he couldn't move from the spot he had found himself, he was wondering how come that Avery found out his house.He panicked, he had no idea what to do or how to react to everything that was happening at the moment, he couldn't process it.He turned to Cassie who was looking at him weirdly, she must've thought that it was weird that there was a woman who was calling him, yelling his name kike he owed her a debt or something.Davide himself started to wonder if he had actually stolen Avery's money or some property she owned."What's going on?" Cassie asked him.Davide looked through the door then looked at Cassie, he had no idea what he should say to her and was just watching her dumbfoundedly."Davide! Davide!" The screams got louder and angrier and Davide was about to lose it, he didn't know how Avery found the house or what she wanted from him. He was utterly confused about what to do.The screams did not stop and actually got quite annoying. Avery was a very st
Avery stood with her hands in her waist, her eyes fixed on Cassie as they were both walking towards her. Avery was obviously angry at seeing Cassie and the questions bubbling in her heart before were now intensified.She began to wonder what sort of relationship Davide had with Cassie that prompted them to spend so long hours together. Avery had seen them at the hospital and now they were together in this mansion.She was wondering if there was something that was going on between them, that maybe they had been doing some unholy things in the house before that was why the guards had refused her from going inside.With this suspicion in her heart, Avery scrutinized Davide's appearance as he was walking towards her. His clothes didn't look like they had been hurriedly worn but there was a noticeable tear on one of the sleeves and from there she could see the outlines of a bandage wrapped around his hand.Avery was shocked as she stared at him, worry surged in her heart but she would rath
