"Alistair don't you think what you did back then was hard, and wild? You know you shouldn't have said something like that ?" Layla asked as she sat down.Mr. Alistair scoffed, "I don't think so. You have no idea what these guys did to me. This is just a way I am paying back what they have done.""What have they done? You mean the Wilde's? The last time I checked Mr. Charlie wasn't part of the Wilde's," Layla replied as she leaned forward."Yeah, but he played a role in taking what was mine. Or do you want to tell me that he had no idea that I was the right heir? Talk to me Layla, he knew about this. But he wanted to have it to himself, you know what I mean right? Don't pretend as if you don't have any idea about what I am saying?""I am just shocked. I thought he was only trying to keep your father's vision alive. Wasn't that what you said?" She asked, and they both laughed."Come off Layla, stop that. I am hungry, come on let's go grab something to eat," Mr. Alistair said as he got
(Two hours later)"Come on bro, it's time to return to the office," Fiona said as she got up on her feet."Hold on, give me a few minutes I am coming," Ethan replied as he surfed through his phone."Come on, lunch break is over. Don't you have work to do in your office?" She asked, giving him a questioning look. His gaze moved away from his phone to her face, "I do, but I just need a little time to chill."Fiona rolled her eyes, "A little time to chill? Come on, you and I both know that time is not on your side. Besides, the amount of time you spent here is enough for you to chill.Get up, and let's start going. Remember we are to be good examples to junior colleagues."He grumbled, throwing his arm in the air. "That's more reason I hate the fact that I am the son of the predator of Voxx's Technologies.""Well it has happened, it has happened. There's nothing you can do about it. Except if the father denounces you as his son," she said sarcastically, rolling her eyes."What? Why would
Mr. Alistair, and Layla both walked out of the car, "The meal was nice, thanks for the lunch."Alistair turned towards her, "How many times have I asked you not to thank me?"They walked towards the elevator, "Come on, it's not bad doing that. Being appreciative isn't something we shouldn't practice just because we are friends."Layla pressed the green button, and the elevator opened up. "Thank you," Mr. Alistair replied."You see, you just said thank you. It's something we can't do, it's in our nature to be expressive by showing gratitude," she said as they walked into the elevator."True, but just like I said the last time. I don't feel comfortable with you guys telling me thank you.""You just have to get used to it. You know you don't have to really fight it. As far as we are all together, then there's absolutely nothing you can do about it," Layla replied.Mr. Alistair exhaled, "You are right. Where are we heading from here?""Voxx's Technologies. You have a meeting with Mr. Ster
(Four hours ago)Nathan walked to the office of Mr. Gabe. He knocked twice on the door of his office. Nathan waited for a while to get an answer.But after waiting he didn't get any. He knocked again, but there was no answer. He brought out his phone to dial Mr. Gabe's number.He was about to dial his number when he heard a feminine voice behind him. "Mr. Nathan right?"Nathan turned with his phone in his hands. "Yeah, Mr. Nathan. You are?""That's not necessary. My boss said you were coming. Something urgent came up, and he had to leave. He didn't have an idea of when he was going to return.Would you like to wait, or would you return home? Based on the fact that we don't know when he's going to return," she said.Nathan bowed his head as he thought about what to do. "I will wait. It's been on my mind to see him. But since I am here, he's not around.Then the best thing I can do right now is to wait for him till he returns. I just hope he returns on time.""That's okay, please come w
Mr. Nathan walked into Mr. Garbe's office. "Ahhh, Nathan. It's good to see you. If I am right it's been months we have seen right?"Nathan nodded his head as he walked towards Mr. Gabe who was also walking towards him with his arm wide open. They both hugged, "You are welcome.""Thank you so much, sir," Nathan replied as they both disengaged from the hug. "It's been on my mind to visit you since the last time I came here with Alistair.You know how this works, a lot of things have happened. You know what I mean right?"Mr. Gabe replied as he walked back to his seat. "Have your seat Nathan, and I am sorry for keeping you waiting. I just got an emergency call from one of my clients.That's more reason I had to rush over to the scene. It's been one issue or another, but it's what I signed up for."He paused and then continued. "What's going on, what brought you here?"Nathan exhaled after that question was being asked. "I am here about the issue of Alistair. I don't know, but I feel ther
(Three hours later)Nathan walked out of the elevator with his hands in his pocket. He walked straight to Mr. Alistair's office, he was about to knock when the door of the office was opened.Layla jumped on him and hugged him. He quickly put her away from his body. He had a serious gaze on her, "What's wrong with you? Can't you see that we are at the office? Don't you remember what Alistair said?"Layla shook her head, she was confused by his reaction. "What did Alistair say?""Come on, you don't forget things like this. Well, he asked that we keep our dating outside the fall walls of the office," he replied with a cold look and a cold stare. His hands were deep in his pocket, his chest out.She nodded her head, "Oh I remember now, I do.""How come you are just returning? You didn't even for once think of calling me or even texting me. You didn't even care to check up on me," she muttered with her gaze on the floor."I am sorry, even if I want to pet you I can't. You know why, but I a
Fiona and Ethan decided to see their Dad in his office. They both walked to his office holding hands with a cute smile on their lips."How many times do they have to greet us?" Ethan complained. "Come on, you don't have to think about that. Courtesy demands that they do that, don't you get it?" Fiona replied as they both walked past Leslie who stepped out of Mr. Starling's office a few seconds ago.She didn't say a word to them, which was weird. They looked at themselves and turned back to look at her. "That's weird of Leslie, there's no way she walks past us without saying a word," Fiona muttered."Yeah you are right, that doesn't even happen. Maybe Dad is at it again, you know how Dad behaves right?" Ethan muttered as they pushed the door of Mr. Sterling's office open. Mr. Sterling raised his head and smiled when he saw his two kids walk in."Son, and daughter at my office. What do I owe to this unexpected meeting?" He asked as he stood up from his seat."Nothing important, we just
"Fine, I will go and prepare. Whatever this is, I fucking hate it, and I ain't happy about it." Fiona scoffed and walked away to her office. Ethan exhaled, before walking into his office."(Thirty minutes later)They were all seated in the conference room waiting for the special guest. Fiona leaned towards her brother due to the fact they were seated side by side. "Do you know who this so-called special guest is?"Ethan shook his head, "No I don't. I am as curious as you.""You didn't have to use the same words to answer me, you know, right?" She asked, and he nodded his head."I am sorry gentlemen. It's not the intention of our guests to waste your time or keep you waiting. He will be here soon," Mr. Sterling stood up to apologize.The quiet conference room became noisy. A few seconds after he sat down, Mr. Alistair walked in with his hands in his pocket, and a smirk on his face. Immediately the room became dead silent.He didn't say a word, he walked towards his seat which was besid
