Richardson had a dream.A dream where he was back in high school once again. It had been really horrible, leaving Richardson feeling cold with anger once he woke up.It’s been ages since Richardson thought about his time in high school, much less have night mares about it. But he wasn’t really surprised about this nightmare, seeing as Gregg had definitely triggered that nightmare.Richardson’s mouth twisted bitterly, an image of him being forced to drink from a toilet while students watched. Richardson shook that image out of his head and silently wondered if he had been too soft on Gregg by letting him go just like that.Richardson pushed himself out of bed, slipping into a silky robe. It was around four a.m, but Richardson was sure he wouldn’t be able to get any more sleep.He quietly existed his room, absent mindedly glancing around as he walked by. He found himself on the balcony a little while later. And, he sat there, losing himself to his thoughts until the day broke.He got
Mr Morris' heart skipped a few beats while his eyes widened in shock.He tried to mask his facial expression instantly, but wasn’t fast enough, and a bigger smirk tugged at Richardson’s lips knowingly.“I- how did-” Mr Morris spluttered, stumbling over his words.He had been thoroughly shocked just now after Richardson had referred to him with a name which he hadn’t heard in years. A name which he had desperately tried to bury.“You’re not saying a thing.” Richardson pointed out.Mr Morris spluttered once again, not knowing what to think.Richardson barked out a mocking laugh after that. “Who knew you could ever be quiet? Huh?” Mr Morris shifted his weight from foot to foot while clearing his throat. “You should get y- your things and l- leave. Don’t b- bother to beg for an extension of t- the deadline, just take your stuff and g- go.”Richardson snorted as he folded his hands. “Hold on, dear landlord. There’s no need for us to rush things now, is there?”“I have better things to do
“This doesn’t seem like ‘nothing’.” One of the women standing at the entrance of the building spoke. Richardson couldn’t remember her face.“Wait, is that… Richardson?” The second woman asked, and they all began to inch towards where a little scene had been unfolding in. Richardson recognized this woman, she was someone he had ran into countless times in the hallways and elevators. Richardson cleared his throat without responding, feeling awkward having been placed on the spot. By the look of shock and awe oh the woman’s face, one could tell she was genuinely shocked to see him dressed like this.Richardson was thankful he hadn’t come here in a suit, or in one of his cars, that would have definitely pulled more attention on him. Even though Richardson was dressed in a casual outfit, it was still obvious that he wasn’t wearing regular clothes. “Hello, Helen.” Richardson finally responded. He watched as the woman let out a sequel and – flew into his arms.Richardson was lost. He
Richardson was busy going through some files in his newly assigned office. The office wasn’t permanent, because as the head of the empire, he can automatically get access to every office and spot, so far the said company was affiliated with his empire.Some of the files records were not adding up, leaving Richardson confused.He had been in this office for over one hour, and had been going through the finance records receipts, and the more he observed, the more some things just doesn’t rhyme together.Richardson was busy wracking his brain and trying to figure out where the problem is from, when his phone began to ring. He answered the call because it kept ringing as soon as the first call stopped.“Hello, can I help you, please?” He said into the phone.“Hello, Mr Wilson. This is Doctor Romeo, the doctor the patient you brought into the clinic two days ago was placed under.” The voice said into the phone and recognized instantly dawned on Richardson.“You dropped your number and re
A man dressed to kill in a suit that was undoubtedly worth hundreds of thousands of dollars, was the main reason for the commotion. He was speaking really loudly, and it was obvious that he was extremely furious. Richardson wondered what the reason for the ruckus could be, just as he noticed a woman who was currently on her knees.She was dressed in one of the hospital’s cleaners uniforms, and had her hands clasped before her while pleading with the angry man.Richardson wondered why she was currently pleading for mercy and out of curiosity, he drew closer to the crowd.Unexpectedly, the man reached out and delivered a sound slap on the kneeling woman’s cheek, which made Richardson flinch, along with the onlookers.The murmurs amongst the crowd went up at that moment, resulting in everyone speaking at once.“Oh my god, he slapped her!” One of them whispered furiously.“Why would he hit her? It wasn’t like she did it on purpose, and she has even apologized.” Another muttered beneath t
Richardson wasn’t sure he had heard right at first.Instantly, the murmurs admidst the crowd went up a few notches. It was obvious that like Richardson, they were all extremely scandalized.Richardson couldn’t believe his ears. He couldn’t believe that a human could be this crude.“Oh my. Did he really mean that?” A random person exclaimed.“I think so. He didn’t seem like someone who jokes around.” Another one supplied.“But, everyone would see her naked if she did as he had requested.” Another one mused in sympathy.“Serves her prudish ass right. I’ve always been curious of how she looks underneath that gown anyways.” A snort looking man muttered and the men around him snickered.Richardson’s lips curled up in disgust, and then he glanced up at Jennie who was still on her knees.More tears fell down Jennie’s face. “Sir, please… anything but that.”The man shook his head firmly. “That’s the only option I have to offer. You entire do that or prepare to be arrested.” He responded flatl
Richardson basked in the way in man spluttered in disbelief and outrage. He waved his hands around while his mouth moved, but no sound came forth. The scowl on his face has deepened drastically.The onlookers’ voices had become more audible, so it wasn’t hard to make out their exclamations.“What?!” One exclaimed.“So, he had been telling a lie the entire time?” Another one demanded.“I thought you said the shoes were up to two million dollars.” One snapped.“I just assumed! Well, even if is isn’t up to two million dollars, five hundred dollars for a pair of shoes is still freaking expensive! My entire family haven’t earned that in their entire life, even if you combined all their incomes.”“Hm, that’s true. You’re actually right. Have a million dollars is still a lot of money.”“But, jennie didn’t even ruin the shoes.”“I can’t believe that man stood up to Jennie like that!” “How dare you utter such lies! You were not there when I bought the shoes, how then do you know that I’m tell
Richardson gets a call from Damien, his grandfather.His grandfather rarely calls, majority of the times, he prefers to send text messages or emails instead.He had called to inform Richardson that he’d like to have a few important words with him once he arrived back at the office.As Richardson shoved his phone back into his pocket, he let a long sigh ease out of his lungs.He was currently leaning against the hood of his car, with his fingers running through his air. It was currently night time, but Richardson wasn’t ready to head home just yet.Richardson was thinking about his life.He had it all now.All that he could ever dream of, and things that he hadn’t ever been able to bring himself to ever think about, was what he now had.Even though he was keeping a low profile, he was still living an extremely comfortable life.A lot of people would kill to be in his spot, a lot of people are definitely out there, extremely jealous of him even though they didn’t know who he was But, s
