“These are all files of the company and you have no right to be in my office,” Richardson said, dropping his suitcase on a couch.The man pointed to the files on the desk, opening some of them as Richardson tried his best to be polite to the man.“You don’t need to do all of that. Just tell me what you want and I will provide them for you. If I cannot, then my assistant will do just that.”The man ignored what he had said, scattering more of the files on the desk while searching for whatever he was searching for.Richardson felt extremely disrespected by that singular action. He had been ignored by the man sitting in his position while going through his files. That was something he was not going to tolerate any longer.Richardson took in deep controlled breaths to put his rage under control. He didn’t want to appear aggressive to the man.“The files you have here are not what I need. Pathetic,” the man spat out, leaning back in the chair to have a good look at Richardson. “I can’t bel
“I asked you a goddamn question,” he bawled, his hands on the table but they were balled into fists.“I-I tried to warn him sir but…”“This was the exact reason I fired the last lady at your desk. You have one job. One fucking job and you’re failing at it. Don’t get me pissed. I already have enough problems of my own.”“I apologize sir.”“I can’t be doing my job and your job at the same time. If you can’t do it you tell me and I will find someone else who can while you focus on something else.”The lady had nothing to say after this as she had her head bowed.“This will be the last time you will let anyone that isn’t me get into my office. The next time you do, you’ll be out on the streets looking for another place to get hired at.” The heir warned gravely as the woman trembled where she stood.“Forgive me sir,” she pleaded. “I really tried to talk to Sir Dominic but I got threatened by him. I had no choice but to let him in.”He gritted his teeth. For Dominic to have access to his of
As she left, he rolled his eyes. He knew her kind and it disgusted him. They were only there when they could sniff out money. They didn’t care if one was skilled or talented in their art, so long as one had the money they would flock around like pigeons around a grain house.He looked at the card one more time before tossing it into a waste bin, entering the company without a second thought about her.He knew her kind would never have approached him when he was broke, even though by that period he would be in dire need of money and would do anything nasty with her to have it.He shook his head, veering into an elevator which a security guard opened up for him.While the elevator door closed, he started to think about the women he had met who had approached him because of his new status. It was a shame none of them would have seen him before his riches came in.He had approached multiple women before dating Alice and it had all ended up in disasters.Most of them had left because he h
Jennie looked at the crowd as they walked around the mall. She had entered the mall to get something for her mother who was paying for it by the way with her own money.She had been called out by the woman even when the young lady had not been in the mood to leave. It had been a forceful outing but she had no choice but to do what her mother was asking her to do.“So, I take it that as you’re silent it didn’t go as planned,” the woman said while they settled into a bench by an artificial garden. Jennie had her mouth taped shut. She didn’t want to say anything to her mother who she knew was already disappointed in her.“Come on,” the old woman smiled. “Let me know. What happened? And tell me everything. Don’t hide anything from me. I’m your mother. I’ll find out later on. What happened?”Jennie took in deep breaths, looking around to make sure no one was going to overhear her conversation with her mother as she explained what has happened and how it had all gone down.She started from
“What do you think about this one?” Jennie’s mother asked, taking up a bag to show her.“I think it’s a bit too dark for your skin color. Take something lighter,” Jennie said. “You don’t need to stand here if you don’t want to. I can feel that you’re not happy to be selecting bags with me,” the woman said before turning to drop the bag, picking another one.“What? Mum I’m happy to be…”“Don’t lie to me girl,” her mother reprimanded. “I can see your legs tapping on the ground faster than thumper did in Bambi. How about you go do what you want to do while I pick up the bags I need. I’ll call you when I’m done.”“It’s just a quick call,” smiled Jennie, rushing away from her mother to get some privacy.She entered the restroom, taking out her phone as she called Richardson. She listened to it ring before beeping.“Hello,” she heard him say, his voice sending tingles up her spine. “Hello,” she greeted back. “Are you busy?”“Yeah,” he responded. “I’ve got like a shit ton of paperwork and
As Richardson left to go get ready for his date with Jennie, Mary arranged the board pieces. She was deep in thoughts at what was going on.She wondered if he was lying to her about just being friends with Jennie. What if there was something more going on between them she thought to herself. Mary didn’t like Jennie as she had not been nice to her at the hospital. She wondered if she was like that to Richardson or she was pretending to be a good person in front of him.Either way, it didn’t matter to her as she did not like Jennie. She could see through Jennie’s lies and facade. She felt that Jennie was lying and showing a side of herself that wasn’t shown to others.Mary could feel that Richardson was good. He was a great person with a wonderful personality. He was fun to be around. She did not have dull moments with the man but moments filled with excitement for what would come next.She knew Jennie was not good for him. She could feel it. Maybe it was because she did not like her
Alice sat on the floor clad in a pink robe in her and Michael’s bedroom. She had her entire wardrobe scattered all over the bedroom floor and bed as she was looking for what to wear for the evening.She couldn’t find anything amongst the heap of clothes with some of them unopened from their new wraps.She tossed some clothes around in frustration before letting out a frustrated scream. She didn’t want to wear what she had already worn before and she didn’t want to wear clothes that weren’t the reigning style.She deemed people who repeated clothes and wore styles that weren’t reigning poor and she wanted to keep up with her lavish lifestyle.The clothes before her had turned to trash. She did not want to wear them anymore. Michael burst into the room in an alarming way, looking around with widened eyes.“Are you okay?!” he yelled in a defensive mood, looking around for anything he could use as a weapon. “Did something happen?!”“What are you yelling for?” she hissed. “I don’t know wh
“Come on honey,” he smiled, holding up the unopened gown. “It’s still beautiful and still brings out your sexy shape. I think it will still be good on you.”“I can’t believe you would say such a thing,” she sighed, already disappointed in him. “How can I wear that? It’s outdated.”“By one month. It’s not even that bad.”“Two months and yes it is that bad. I don’t repeat clothes Michael. You should have known that when we started dating each other.”“I also didn’t think I’d be this broke when we first started dating. You’ve spent all the money I’ve given to you on shoes, bags and clothings. Do you even have savings?”“Oh don’t even go there. You saw me and decided that you were going to date me. That also meant you were going to take care of all my spendings. If it was that expensive then why promise that you would take care of all of them.”“I am taking care of all of them, I just didn’t know I was going to be broke while doing it.”“You disgust me,” she hissed. “I can’t believe that
