As Jace walked away from the heir he couldn’t believe how lucky he was to have gotten such a job offer.It had happened like a miracle. He remembered that he had gone out with his mother and his little brother in search of what to do for work but had not found anything to do.His mother had lost her job from the newspaper company she worked at as a cleaner. She had been fired for no reason and as such they had all been starving from that day. Her income was not enough to keep everyone afloat and after getting fired, he knew they would all die if they did not find something to do immediately.They had decided that getting a new job was better than begging and that was what they had intended to do.Stepping out of the house that fateful morning, they had scoured the city in search of jobs. He had entered into different offices begging for job placements but had not gotten any.He had regrouped with his mother and sibling later on to see that she had not also gotten anything as well.Hi
He stood in the elevator watching it go down while being grateful for his new job. He couldn’t stop smiling at himself and how lucky he had been.The elevator stopped moving, coming to a halt which got him leaving it to ask questions from the same guards who had been rude to him that morning.“Excuse me,” he called to the men who eyed him.“What do you want?” the leader grunted out in exhaustion.“I wanted to ask about the cafeteria. I was told to go there and get breakfast.”“Do you see that sign there?” the guard pointed to a door which had ‘cafeteria’ written on it.“Yes I do.”“Great, now fuck off and don’t disturb me. I’m working.”Jace nodded before running towards the door. He opened it up to find it filled with lots of elite men and women who had ID cards around their necks to show that they worked at the company.He didn’t know how long it would take before he would have his own to show that he worked for such a prestigious company.He decided to wait in line till it was his
He looked around to see that everyone was laughing which angered him even more.“Will you unhand him this instant!” ordered Richardson which got the guard shivering as he let go of Jace who scurried to stand beside the heir.With a dangerous look, the heir peered through the crowd to see that no one was smiling anymore.“Did you get the food?” he asked the young man.“I couldn't get anything,” Jace said, ready to report everyone and their crimes. “They kicked me out before I could do anything. “I tried explaining myself to them and tried telling the waiters that I had been sent by you but none of them believed my story, instead the lead waiter walked out to get the security to have me thrown out.”Richardson looked at the lead waiter, “I presume you are the lead waiter.”“Y-yes, Mr Richardson,” the man stuttered. “I had no idea he was…”“Did you at least let him finish his explanations?” Richardson shut him down with a dangerous question which was likely to have him fired if he answe
Before his first day at the company, he had seen rich people as people who only spoke out for themselves but Richardson had been different.How was he able to care for him and fight for him without asking for anything in return? Maybe this was a hidden thing that would be revealed in due time but Richardson looked like the type of person who had it all.What could Jace possibly have to give to the rich man?“People should not be treated like that,” Richardson said, answering the questions which bugged him. “People should be treated with respect and not be pushed around like they don’t matter.”This statement caught the young man by surprise as he had not seen that coming. Of course people should not be treated like that but how many people out there knew about it.He had been poor for most of his life so he had known first hand that poor people or underprivileged people were treated like the runt of society.It did not matter where they worked, the treatment was always the same and th
With a stride, Mary moved to the window to look out of it. The midday sun blessing her face with its rays.Her life was going well, except for the fact that she had still not recovered from her memory loss, but other than that, she was doing okay. She knew that she would recover, it only needed time, at least that was what she told herself each morning as she had no other faith to hang onto.The only thing she didn’t like at the moment and wasn’t pleased about was the fact that Jennie’s presence was still in Richardson’s life and she wished she could get rid of Jennie already.The cleaner had been envious of her for no reason. With a sigh, she pushed away those thoughts as she went back to settle in the bed to keep watching the movie which still played on.***Alice danced slowly to a song which was playing at a club. Her skimpy gown moved all the way to her hips while she danced on her seat with her cleavages as usual looking like they were about to burst from her seams.She was wi
She watched him take a drink from his cup before turning to smile at her.“Tell me what you know about Richardson.”This question got him surprised and he was taken aback by it. What had caused her sudden interest in Richardson?“Why are you suddenly interested in him?” he frowned wondering how she knew the man. “I don’t know,” she chuckled trying to lighten up the mood by rubbing her hands on his chest which was visible due to the way he had buttoned his shirt which did not cover it up. “I just want to know. Ordinary curiosity you might call it. It’s bothered me for some time now.”He narrowed his eyes at her. He did not trust the words that she was saying.“Look,” she decided to explain further. “I had noticed Richardson staring at you in envy after we had met at that party. “Of course trying to get an audience with you had been impossible and it was even more impossible after my boyfriend created that stupid scene where he was being thrown out of the party by security. “This had
The man hiccuped some more while staring at Alice. He wanted so badly to let her know his anger and feelings but the warning Damien had gravely made at the meeting hammered into his head.Damien was a dangerous man and a man to not mess with. Only a stupid man would cross his path expecting nothing to happen to him only to find out he had been playing with fire all along.The warning from Damien came again and again in his head which got him clearing his throat while looking away.A gossip like this was not worth losing his life or his money over.Damien could destroy him with a single thought. He didn’t need much effort to do that. Corporations and organizations had fallen to Damien’s anger, he was not up to a corporation and he knew that he would be like a fly to the man.If Damien wanted something done, it would be done. The man heaved a heavy sigh. No, he was not going to talk about Richardson. This was getting too tricky. “I don’t feel like talking about Richardson anymore,” th
“Please, I'm begging you. I am sorry for what happened. It won’t happen again, I can promise you that. I didn’t know who you were.“I didn’t know it would end up like this. Please forgive me.”He was terrified as he looked around to see the men in suits were all with weapons — baseball bats, sticks and batons. Any wrong move he made could end up in him getting beaten up and even killed.“Please,” he went on to beg. “I don’t want to die. I’m begging you. I had no idea that it would end up this way. I made a very costly mistake and I’m here apologizing for it. Please forgive me for it.”“I’m not going to end your life,” Richardson finally said after getting tired of hearing the man plead for his life. “I’m only taking you to jail. You’ll serve your remaining sentence there.”The man on hearing jail begged even more, “I don’t want to go to jail! Please! I’m already begging you! What more do you want?!”“I want you to serve your sentence, that is what I want from you. You stole a man’s ca
