“I love your suit,” a man complimented the suit he had on, causing him to swell with pride.“Thanks,” he sighed, trying to not blush under the dim light. He liked whenever he was the center of attention. That was how Michael had grown up. He had loved being the main character. Even in other peoples stories, he loved being the main center of attention.Getting kicked out of the party had bruised his ego but getting compliments from the bar was healing him up really good.“How much did you get it?” the man went on with more men coming closer to get a feel of his suit. “A hundred thousand dollars,” he replied like he was bored but deep down, he was jumping for joy at the attention he was getting.“Oh my God!” He heard the men gasp in shock at the price with some whistling. Take it all in, he smiled to himself watching the reaction around him with an air of arrogance. It felt good to be rich amongst the poor. He was once again, the center of attention for the men.“Here,” he dropped a
“Where are you going, Sir?” Richardson’s driver asked him as he got into the Bentley, requesting for the keys.“I’m taking her for a little spin, I’ll be back,” he smiled taking the keys from the driver as he started it up.Roaring the car to life, he sped into traffic, heading for Jennie’s abode.“That was the most fun I have ever had,” she clapped her hands for joy. She was elated at how everything had gone for her.She had mingled with so many rich people, lived a life of luxury and had a wonderful night with Richardson. Being his girlfriend had gotten her so much attention.“I did too,” Richardson laughed, slowing down to get into a street way. “I had to deal with my ex and her crazy boyfriend.”“I saw that,” she concurred. “What happened to you both anyway?”Her question took him back to the past as he remembered his time in the company while watching himself dance, the look on his boss’s face as he was getting fired and his surprise to find out about his girlfriends affair with
While driving through the night, he remembered he had not paid her for her services. Stopping at a red light, he took out his phone, dialed her number and listened to the phone ring.“Hello,” her voice came on the phone.“You haven’t slept yet?” he chuckled.“You just left, silly,” she chuckled back. “I was about to make dinner but I was undressing.”“Oh,” he replied, beginning to imagine her sexy body out of her clothes with her naked body in his bed. Focus Richardson, he mentally hit himself.“Anyway, I forgot about your pay. I should have told you about it.”“Oh yeah,” she laughed. “That.”“Yeah, I’ll send it to you once I get home. I got your account number from Tom. Remember you gave it to him during your training session.”“Yes I remember. Just drive safe.”“Sure,” he nodded, watching the lights turn green. “I’ve got to go.”“Alright, bye,” she said before hanging up.He laid his head on the rest while breathing in deeply. There was no need to rush as it was late at night and
Jennie felt extremely giddy immediately she got into her room. She could not believe that she had gotten into fights with rich folks and gone away unscathed. That was a first and it elated her.She had heard stories but not been to any rich party to see how the rich fought.Getting into her room, she stared at the mirror before her. In her dress she looked sexy. No wonder he had stared at her like he had seen a ghost. She could not help but also admire what she had.Taking off the dress while she got ready to have dinner, she found her phone buzzing lightly.It was Richardson.“Hello,” she said over the phone, listening to him breathe. “You haven’t slept yet?” he chuckled. It had a nice ring to it. She could hear him chuckle all day and not get tired of it.“You just left, silly,” she chuckled back. “I was about to make dinner but I was undressing.”“Oh,” he replied. He didn’t say anything and she started to wonder if she had given off too much information. “Anyway. I forgot about y
Three days after the party, Richardson stood at the hospital park waiting for Jennie to join him. He had on a polo with blue jeans. His sneakers screamed of wealth as it was the latest one in the stores.He paced around, kicking about the grasses as he waited for her to join him in the garden. He had grown tired of sitting and playing games on his phone so he was moving around to pass away the time.“Hey,” he heard her call behind as he turned to see her dressed in a decent flower dress. “You’ve been here a long time?”“You know I called you like an hour ago,” he chuckled.“Yeah I did, I’m sorry I lost track of time,” she apologized. “I was working. My boss yelled at me for missing so many days at work so I was trying to make up for it.”“Alright,” he nodded.She looked him over admiring his fashion sense. He was rich. She only needed to fuse with him and all her financial troubles would be a thing of the past. She would not even have to work anymore.“So, shall we?” He pointed to his
Going through the files at his office, he found some new revelations. He could see new results popping out from nowhere.“Interesting,” he sighed as he clicked away at his desktop while ignoring the buzzing of his phone.He had been working nonstop to find out where the new embezzlement was coming from.He had gotten some clues but he needed more evidence to know how to go about his investigation.Finally after a tedious week of searching through for where the company's money was going, he found it. He figured out where the loopholes for the receipts were coming from. They were coming from one of the extended family. The three grown sons of Damien’s brother who had apprehended him at the party.“Well, I’ll be damned,” he chuckled evilly, settling into his seat. This was a twist he had not seen coming.He had expected it from some people but not from the men. They had acted like saints and had almost accused him of stealing and lying but here they were stealing from the company they s
“So… you seriously want me to do nothing about it?” Richardson asked further wanting to know if the man would try to change his mind, even if it would be for a little bit.“Nope,” the man said, still hung up on his answer.“Not even a little bit?” the youngster asked again. He wondered why the man would say such. He hated his brother and his children, it would take nothing from him to throw them out of his company.It would give him the time and the strength to spend on something more productive, instead of worrying about what his brother and his children were planning next.“Richardson,” the man cleared his throat. From the way his tone changed, it was clear he had gotten out of bed. “The only reason I’m doing this is for your sake.”“My sake?” Richardson almost yelled out. What did he have to do with this now?“Yes. Now listen, you’ll only get more attention to yourself if you expose them and that would be very bad for your upcoming reputation.,” the man reasoned.“Now, as much as I
“Sir,” Richardson heard someone shake him as he woke up from his slumber to see Tom standing over him.“Hey,” he sighed, stretching himself up. He looked around the room to recognize the room to not be his. The beeping reminded him that he was still in his mothers room.He had fallen asleep by her bedside the night before.“You slept here all night sir,” Tom noted, opening the windows to let in the sunlight.“Oh no, close it. Mother does not like…” he began to explain in a defensive way as Tom raised a finger.“She’s in a coma sir,” the butler noted. “Would you not want her to wake? That is the reason we are trying everything possible with the doctors, to make her wake up.”“Oh yeah,” he concurred getting to his full height. He paced to the chair, took up his suitcase and started for his room as Tom ran after him.“Sir, I have something important to tell you.”“Yeah, I won’t be showing up at work today,” he waved the old man off. “I still haven’t slept well. And can you tell my secret
“Pack your things and leave,” Richardson said after returning home to see Jennie lounging around by the pool.“Excuse me?” she scoffed when he had said those words.“You heard me. Pack up and get out of my house.”“May I remind you that I am pregnant.”“You forgot to mention that the baby is not mine.” He said those words as she gasped to her feet. He got out his phone playing the video out loud as she watched it in shock.“That video is a fake!”“It looks pretty real to me. Now I have called my bank manager and every single thing I have sent you since this whole thing started has been refunded back to my account and you are back to where you started.”“But that would be that I would be owing the bank. My account would be in minus a hundred thousand dollars.”“Then I suggest you had better start working for your money as you are not my problem anymore.”He nodded to the security guards he had come with as they entered the house with one of them dragging her into the house.“They will
When the women had gone out of the restaurant, Alice listened to the conversation over and over again and was happy that she had gotten what she needed to use against Jennie.She could not believe that she was going to ruin the woman’s life and she was prepared to do it without remorse. If Jennie was going to have Richardson, then she would ruin what they had with this evidence.She had already known where Richardson would be the next day and she was prepared to meet him there.With a triumphant smile, she stood from her seat, no longer hungry as she went home for the day.***The next day, she garbed on her most wonderful attire as she started for the park where she would see Richardson getting his favorite snack.She arrived early to make sure she did not miss him and when she found his car parking there, she rushed to him with her phone to show him the evidence which she so greatly prided herself for.“Hey,” she smiled to him as he got out of the car but his face was swollen like h
She looked out to watch the heir step out of his car and look around in confusion at how the gate was open and how there was no one around the estate.She wanted to warn him but she could tell that her father would also hear her. She had to stop him from getting into the house.She hissed out of her window trying to get his attention but all he did was look around aimlessly trying to figure out where the noise was coming from.When he was done doing that, he ran into the house getting the lady to smack her forehead in anger.“He’s really going to get himsef killed.”Opening her door slowly to make sure she did not alert the man in the house, she started for the stairs as she watched the heir run into the living room.She tiptoed silently to not make any noise in the house and when she reached the bottom of the stairs, a thud was heard with the two men still having conversations.She hid behind the door of the living room to have a peek into the room as she found Richardson hiding behi
“Do you like your new position? I bet it’s really nice to sit on that very comfy seat and give orders from above. The question is, what would happen if someone decided to take away that power from you? Would you let us…”“What do you want?!” yelled the heir tired of the games. He had grown exhausted and he just wanted to see his grandfather. He wondered if everyone in the house was safe. Jennie, Mary, Damien, Tom and his mother. He did not want anything to happen to any of them. He wanted them all to be safe. He refused to believe that anything had happened to Damien.He stood to his feet to face the man once again. He was not going to be afraid of the man but he was going to face him and kick him out of the house.He knew being at the top would make him an automatic target but why would everyone see him as an enemy. He had done nothing wrong.He knew this was the goal of his family members and that was it. There was no one else mad enough to do this.They had hired this low budget h
Richardson arrived at the company with a sour mood as he was tired of the drama which was unfolding at the estate. The drama between Mary and Jennie was getting out of hand.Why would Mary try to be sexual with him? It was not like he liked her that way.“Sir Richardson,” someone greeted him as he looked to see Jace smiling at him with some files in his hand.“Hey, Jace,” the heir said, coming back to earth. “How are you this morning?”“Oh I’m doing alright. I’m here with the files you asked me to compile for you. They do need your approval and they would soon be used later on by the other team so I compiled it as fast as I could.”“That is great,” Richardson got into his office to see a letter on his desk with his name written on it. “Please, drop the files by the cabinet and I’ll give it a quick look.”“Alright sir,” Jace said, dropping the files before exiting the office with the door closing behind him.When the boy was gone. Richardson picked up the letter to read and found it to
Tom grunted as trying to explain his plans to the man before him could expose his entire plans and he did not want that to happen. He also did not want to end this without a climax which would get him a sure victory.As a master of subtlety he was going to try to win Damien over to his side. That was sure to grant him a win and he was prepared for it.“Listen, Damien,” he said again, shocking the man. “What I am trying to tell you is that I can turn this empire into a greater one. All your enemies I can wipe them out with a thought. No one would look down on us ever again. “We can rule and we can make sure that everyone who hears our name trembles in fear.”“Us? Rule? What are you talking about Thomas? Where are you going with this?” Damien asked in shock. “I already have a grandson who will take over for me when I am gone. I will teach him the ropes around everything. “I have watched him grow over the course of a few months he has stayed with me and I have watched him speak kindly
Tom looked out of his window one morning as Richardson entered his car to drive off for work. His face smeared into a grin as he watched the heir drive off.He had been after the heir since he had known after his existence. He could not believe at first that the heir existed and during the heir’s DNA test he had wished the heir was not real but it had come up positive that he was Damien’s grandson.This had infuriated him but he had decided that he would use this to his advantage instead.Before Richardson entered into his life, for years he had been planning steadily to get the company from the Wilson’s. He had made Damien trust him as the man was without an heir and he was the only person he trusted.He had built that trust until it was broken by Richardson stumbling into his life. And now he was back to zero as he could not get anything with the heir being there. There had to be a way to take back the company without Richardson being a thorn in his flesh so he had been trying to
Michael stared at her for sometime before bursting into laughter shocking Alice for she had not seen that reaction coming. She had expected that he would accept her pleas as usual and they would hug, kiss and make up and get back to the apartment to have mind blowing sex. But instead he had laughed in her face which was like a slap to her. Why was he acting so strangely?“What? You thought you would just crawl back to me after insulting me like I was a child a few days ago?” he asked. “Please, get real. I am not a child.”“Baby, let’s not do this here,” she said, being self conscious of how the public was looking at them.“Oh shut up,” he hissed. “Now they are your biggest concern. Do you know how many times I have begged for your love and attention and all I’ve gotten were scraps? Do you know how many times I wanted to be seen by you? “I loved you for a long time, Alice. Sometimes I would get you food to starve, that was how much I loved you. I got cursed by my parents, I got laid
For days she tried contacting different investigators to help her with her case as they kept sending her files which she kept on compiling.She was ready to destroy Jennie with everything she could find and she went through the files to see if there was anything she could use against the woman.She could see some incriminating evidence against the woman and when she tried to save the files into the desktop to read later a hot coffee poured over her desktop ruining her computer and destroying everything.“What is wrong with you?!” Alice yelled to her feet as she turned to the person who had done it to find Lola staring at her. The manager came out of his office to see what had happened and he found Lola carrying around a trolley of coffee going around to deliver to the workers.“I really do apologize. It was a mistake,” Lola apologized after finding out that her manager was staring at her.“You fool! This is all your fault! You just ruined my whole plan!” Alice was furious as everythi
