Michael didn’t understand what was happening. After he had stumbled upon Richardson here, he had gleefully thought that this would finally be his moment for him to flaunt his wealth, which he had done a good job at keeping a secret for years, right in Richardson’s face. He had been doing a great job at that at first, and by how Rildhardson had remained silent throughout, he had thought his plan was already working out.But, that had been before everything had turned around right before him, when Richardson who had been thrown out, returned with a man who looked like he compared power. Telling by the shocked sound Alice made as she plastered herself against Michael, along with the confused murmur that went through the crowd right now, it was proof enough that they were just as confused as Michael was.Michael watched in disdain and displeasure as the two higher up bosses of this company knelt before Richardson while apologizing to him.Michael had no idea who the man that had accom
The wind whipped Richardson’s hair around as he drove. It still felt unreal that not only does he now own a car, the car was the latest version and very costly.A lot of people stared as he drove past them, but Richardson paid them no heed. He was used to attracting attention right since he was poor, so he wasn’t unfazed.Tom had arranged for some drivers to go pick up the rest of Richardson’s cars, after Richardson had informed him he’d like to go shop for some clothes on his own.The sun was still shining brightly and Richardson was already starting to feel a little bit hungry, seeing as it was already late noon.He decided to stop by a restaurant which was one of the biggest restaurants in the county. He wasn’t sure if this particular company was partly owned by his newly acquired empire, because he couldn’t remember most of the names he had saw in the book last night. He parked his car and made his way into the restaurant, patting his pockets to ensure that his black card was st
After Richardson was done with his lunch, he existed the restaurant and drove off in his luxurious car which was effortlessly attracting so much attention.He drove all the way to one of the luxurious fashion brands which he had already dreamed of shopping in.He had been unable to shop in fancy boutiques because he had always been to poor to afford them. He had always hope to come to shop in a fancy boutique with his girlfriend, Alice, as soon as he hit big. Too bad she hadn’t been patient enough.Richardson existed and locked his car, he pocketed his keys as he head towards the entrance of the luxuriously decorated entrance of the botique.He patted his pockets to ensure his black card was on him as he paused at the entrance in order to get scanned.The security men regarded him with long looks before granting him access. Richardson nodded at them as we walked past them, into the boutique.His breath catch in his throat as he took in the entire expanse of space in a single glance.
Richardson exited the boutique, feeling really satisfied as he drove out of their arena, into the busy street.Once again, he attracted so much attention with his car.He tried not to think about why his grandfather had called him, informing him he’d like to talk to him about something.Richardson tried not to think about it at all, because that was only going to make him worry more.He couldn’t help but wonder if Damien had realized that he had made a mistake when he had Richardson rescued.Richardson couldn’t help but wonder if his grandfather doesn’t want him taking the inheritance from whom he was told was his father, just yesterday.Richardson decided to keep his mind open until he got home, and in order to get his head free, he decided to stop at a shoe company.He didn’t spend too much time in it like he had done at the boutique where he had shopped for clothes at, some time ago.The attendant this time was very nice to Richardson, despite the fact that Richardson was still in
Richardson watched as his grandfather shook his head as he spoke. “This is actually a child‘s play to what I’d actually do assuming they had initially known whom you were.“Richardson felt guilty.He had always known he had a really soft heart, so he wasn’t shocked when he began to feel guilty, a few moments ago.“What’s wrong?” Damien asked after a few minutes, after noticing the expression on Richardson’s face.Richardson was conflicted.Those men back at the automobile company had ridiculed him so much, and yet, here he was, feeling bad on their behalf.He silently cursed himself over for having a heart as compassionate as this one.“Can you restore the men’s jobs back?”He paused.“I know you’re only looking out for me, which is really flattering and touching, but I feel like those men don’t deserve to lose their jobs like that, because of what they did.” Richardson pursed his lips once he was done. Damien huffed out a small laugh as he shook his head.“You have a really
Richardson wasn’t surprised that he wasn’t able to get a good night’s sleep. After he had seen that post Alice made on Instagram, his entire mood got ruined.Throughout the time Alice and Richardson had dated, it had been a secret. Alice told Richardson she wanted to keep her romantic life really private, and Richardson went along with it.After he saw that post, he remembered that Alice never agreed to post any picture taken with him back when they were still together. She made sure Richardson never told anyone about their relationship, and the only person who knew about his relationship with Alice, was Michael.Now that Richardson was thinking about it, it made him feel like a fool, because it was now obvious that she had been utterly ashamed of him and hadn’t wanted anyone to find out she was dating someone like Richardson. Alice’s post caption has said; ‘The only one who owns my heart.’Richardson almost puked while reading that. He forced himself out of bed and dragged himsel
Chapter 21 On pulling up before the building which the meeting was getting held in, Richardson felt extremely gobsmacked. The building was so tall, Richardson was sure it was over fifty floors in total, and as he exited his car and pocketed his keys, a nervous feeling engulfed him.Tom led the way into the building, past a bunch of security men who bowed in respect on sighting Richardson, who was trying to hide how nervous he was by pocketing his hands.On the elevator which was taking them to the highest floor of the building, Tom explained to Richardson about how he shouldn’t let whatever is said to him in the meeting get to him.At this point, Richardson just wanted to attend the meeting so it could be done and over with already.The elevator finally stopped and Tom had to input a code, which he informed Richardson was an exclusive code needed to access this floor of the building.The code gets changed daily, in order to ensure the tightest security ever. Richardson was wowe
The man who was being currently accused of wanting the heir’s spot for his son, had a pair of dark shades on which is identical to the one he son also had on.He was totally unfazed by the accusation, telling from his body language. Instead, he fired back the accusation at the one who had accused him.“Not you acting like you didn’t recently suggest your son step into the position of the heir of the empire, like you always do, so stop this bullshit talk at once.”All eyes were instantly on the man sitting beside Tom’s other side, who got to his feet in the next moment as he responded.“Well, at least my son has all the qualifications needed to take on that role, unlike yours!” The man with sunshades sprang to his feet at that, pointing a finger at the one on Tom’s other side.“Your son would never be fit enough for that role, and he doesn’t have any damn qualifications! Don’t forget we all know you paid his way through school for him to graduate!” “Well, at least I don’t act like I’
