"And this is not just an order," Carl added, "It's a command."

Carl Gerald cut the call at Debra Zach's affirmation.

Austin Tyler became annoyed at Carl Gerlad's statement. "How dare nobody like you–".

Austin Tyler was cut short by his ringing phone. Without looking at the caller, he cut the call. He didn't want to look weak in front of Carl Gerald.

Again, his phone rang before he could get back to Carl. He grudgingly took the call. Assuming the caller was a servant, he became enraged.

"What do you want?! Stop calling me!" He yelled, ready to end the call.

"You fool! You've forgotten your father!" An old voice exclaimed from the other end. Even without seeing the expression, one could tell the voice's owner was angry and tired.

"F-father?" Austin was shocked at his outburst. He sobered up instantly.

Even the musicians had stopped playing.

    The party had come to an abrupt end soon after. It wasn’t like the banquet was over, instead, it was more about exchanging pleasantries. Since Carl Gerald had no one to talk to, he figured he might as well call it a day.“Sara.” He called.Sara seemed to be enjoying the food, and after the humiliation of Austin Tyler and Tiffany Raymond, she’d been especially ecstatic.From the distance she waved off to the few ladies she was conversing with. “What?” She asked as she approached her foster brother.“Do you want to stay here forever?” Carl Gerald teased.Sara Gerald formed a small frown, “I… I can’t say?” She teased back, playing with the fabric of her gown that she’d forgotten to be ‘too revealing’.“I meant we’re leaving.” Carl responded in defeat. “You could’ve just said so from the beginning.” She grabbed Carl Gerald’s sleeve. Her hands trembled softly. Carl Gerald expected as much, the attention of the crowd had yet to dwindle. It was another factor that prevented him from stayi

Debra Zach had a very good way with words both positively, and negatively. Juliet, unfortunately became a victim that very night.‘I’m glad she’s not my enemy.’ Carl Gerald sucked in a cold breath.“I’ll be taking my leave then, if you have a response, please do well to reach out to me before 11am prompt.” Debra Zach remained formal.“I will.

That's your name right?”Sam Gabriel asked almost immediately, his eyes were still on the paper, and he had two pencils fitted by his two ears as he spoke.It was as if he was staring at Alfred Maxwell through the upper lenses of his glasses.Alfred Maxwell slowly stared at him before replying immediately, “Yes…that's my name.”His voice had a little tiny feeling of unease, the kind of feeling you get when you undergo a process that you haven't gone through before.“This is a very great description, and I really admire your retentive memory, but…”“Is there anything else you do remember from the perso
