Chapter 4
Everyone in the family was shocked, they thought Daniel was here to take advantage of them, but Daniel didn’t.
Murmurs echoed in the room.
"I thought he was there to marry Samira" said a voice.
"So he's here to cancel the contract? Unbelievable!" Added another voice.
"This young man is truly a man with dignity, he is not here for Lord's money"
"It's rare to see people like that these days, very rare even, you could even say impossible" .
“I think he said that to see our different reactions”.
Aris said sarcastically: " Daniel you just pretended to do this, so that you would get more from my family , so that you could get married to Samira. Am i right?"
Daniel's face darkened and he said angrily: " that's not true, you're wrong. I don't know what you mean. "
"You know very well what I mean, don't play dumb. You were planning this whole time, it's obvious." Aris was clearly angry now.
"Aris! You're speaking nonsense. I don't need your money, I came here to regret the contract".
Had he really come to break the contract? Or for another reason?
"Regret the contract? Regret the contract? How dare you!" Aris raised his voice "you bastard! I know people like you . You don't care about anyone, you just care about yourself!"
Everyone in the room was shocked and quiet, they couldn't believe what they were hearing. They never thought Daniel could turn into a monster.
Was Daniel a selfish liar? In the end, wasn't he doing all this just for their money?
"You don't know anything about me and I don't know anything about you. So stop spreading rumours, I am not a bad person . Don't judge me by your own standards" Daniel said angry.
The eldest son Jules stood up and said: "Enough! Enough! You've made your point, so shut up already."
Daniel looked at everyone in the room and said: "I came here to regret the contract because I didn't want to marry Samira ever since she was born and I was born. I don't even know who she is, just that her name is Samira Wilson, but that's all."
Everyone was silent; they couldn't believe what they were hearing.
"I don't want to be a husband anymore, I don't want to be a father either. I am sorry to all of you."
Everyone stared at Daniel, speechless and he continued "It doesn't matter now. The contract marriage is annulled." Daniel said.
Everyone was silent again.
Daniel said disappointed: "I can't believe that some people can think like this, I came here to cancel this marriage contract and not to take advantage of you , I'm not that kind of people" .
Lady Wilson said calmy: "I'm sorry my dear Daniel, but you should have known that, there are some things that you can't change once they are set in stone. There is nothing that we can do now, except to accept it."
Everyone kept silent Daniel was about to leave, but the lord of the family stopped him, he said:" don't go Daniel, i would like to offer you a work my son" .
The lord proposed because he thought after being kicked out of the family, Daniel would be very poor.
Daniel was going to reject, but he reminded his target to be here. Not only just break the marriage contract, but also protect this family, because when he was kicked out of his own family, the lord helped him a lot. So he had to repay this debt. He accepted the job that was offered to him.
"Ok, i will do it. " He agreed so he will be near to the family and protect them.
Aris who was waiting for this laughed, and said :" i was right, Daniel , you was just pretending to break the marriage contract when you want our money. You are just pathetic , pathetic" He mocked Daniel.
"Aris shut up ! Stop talk nonsense. No, no. Daniel is an important person for us, he will have a high position in this family whether you want it or not." The lord said firmly. Then the lord Turned to Daniel and said: "please don't listen to him. My son is stubborn, when he has an idea in his head, it's impossible to take it away from him. Don't listen to him. So please just let him speak."
" Don't worry about me lord, He can say whatever he wants. I know what I'm worth, I'm a good person, and no one can make me believe otherwise" Daniel said confidently.
Aris continued to sneer "I was right, you're a liar and a profiteer, you jumped at the first chance my dad gave you. That's really ridiculous. , look how you coax my dad, luckily I know you, you can't do that to me. Never you sly!” he said all this while looking at him with disgust. Aris's words did not affect Daniel, those words were like wind.
Daniel had a high regard for himself, and that was normal, because it was this education he had received from Master Baki, always being true, honest and straight in everything. He had received an education whose values and dignity were the pillars. For him it was better to die than to flout his dignity.
Then the Lord took a business card from his pocket, handed it to Daniel and told him:" take it! It's a business card of BKT Enterprise, go there tomorrow to get a job " .
" Okay lord ! Thanks for your help! " Daniel took the business card and agreed .
" You are welcome my son ! You deserve it ! You are a good person. May God bless you my son !"
" May God bless you too lord . I'm gonna go , Thanks again! " Daniel thanked him and left.
After he left the room, Jules, Aris and Samira , lord started arguing again.
"What did you say? You think we should hire this man? He is an outsider, how can we trust him? He is not even a member of this family, so how can we give him a big role in our business?" Jules argued.
Samira was confused and surprised, she couldn't believe her ears. She thought Daniel was really here to cancel the marriage contract, but now she heard that he wanted to be part of the family.
"You think I'm stupid? Why would I marry someone I don't know?"she asked.
"What's the matter with you? You just made a fool of yourself in front of everyone!" Aris mocked
" me ? ridicule me? Haha! What a joke!" Samira laughed.
"Hey! What are you laughing about!? " Aris shouted.
" Because you are an idiot" samira replied.
Aris laughed and samira ask :" you what are you laughing about? Don't tell me you're laughing because he wants a job from us, are you kidding me! That's ridiculous! I am not marrying him just so that I can give him a job! Please, you're lying to me!"
Jules interrupted. " A job? We're giving him a job? How can you be so stupid? You're an idiot, you want to make a fool of us, right? Hahaha".
Samira got angry and said: "Shut up Jules and Aris! You guys are the ones who are making fools of yourselves in front of everyone! You can stop pretending like you're smart, and pretend like you didn't hear what I said, because you knew that it's true, didn't you? This is just too funny!"
Samira was enjoying the moment of watching her brothers arguing.
Everyone was silent for a while. Then finally the lord spoke: "We have to give this guy a chance, he deserves it."
Everyone agreed.
Chapter 5The next day, Daniel went to the address the lord offered him,BKT Enterprise it was a great building. When he entered, he saw many young employees working, some were in their twenties, others in their thirties, older men and women. Everyone was busy with work, everyone seemed focused and serious.This place is amazing ! This is a dream come true!He smiled, feeling very happy, he walked to the reception and said :" Hi! I'm here to get a job." The receptionist was a beautiful girl. Her eyes were big and bright, her hair was black and shiny like silk, her skin was smooth as silk, she wore a pink blouse and a pair of matching pants, she was very beautiful, she looked like she could model for any fashion magazine." Hello sir! Can I have your name please? She asked" " Of course! I'm Daniel Biao" he replied. " Okay! Wait !" She said before made a call." Good morning! ""..."" Yes a certain Daniel Biao says he is here for a job" she said."..."" Yes" she said looking at him
Chapter 6The manager left the office and he made a call, a man told him to make some troubles to Daniel and force him to leave.The manager promised. *Phone call between the manager and the man who wanted Daniel to leave the company*" Hi ! I have some news for you." The manager said." What ? " the man asked." Daniel the guy who was supposed to come, came today and currently he is already installed in our office. He is as you described to me, that is to say young, handsome, smart, and very intelligent" the manager said." Okay ! You know what you have to do now right?" The man asked ."Yes, I know what I have to do. I just want to make sure that everything works out as you planned." The manager said."Everything will be as expected and you will be rewarded for your efforts!" the man assured him."Okay!" The manager said happily." I will do whatever it takes! I will make him leave, no matter what! I even already have my little idea on how to get him out of the company." The manager
***The rest of the day passed quickly for Daniel and Lisa. The more they worked, the better they got to know each other.When the clock struck five o'clock, Lisa announced that she had finished her tasks for the day.Daniel was also ready to go home. He had to be back the following morning very early. He and Lisa had to find a strategy to get the contract with Empire State Building."See you tomorrow Dani" she said."See you tomorrow! " Daniel replied.Both went to their respective cars. Lisa was going home while Daniel was going to his apartment.***Daniel arrived at his apartment tired. Once inside, he took his clothes off and put on his pajama. He lay down on his bed and closed his eyes.It was a nice and sunny day, the birds were singing in the sky. The sun shone from the window, he felt asleep.The next day, Daniel woke up very early, he had to prepare for work. He had to be there very early because he wanted to avoid the traffic jam.He got up and washed his face, he looked at
Chapter 8The next day, Daniel and Lisa arrived at the office early.They decided to scout Empire State Building together, this would be a good opportunity to get to know each other better."So, how did you sleep?" Daniel asked."Very badly! I kept thinking about the owner of Empire State Building Company. I hope he gets back soon." Lisa said."Me too! " Daniel said.***Daniel and Lisa were scouting Empire State Building.Empire state Building was a big building located in New York. It was a big company, with Six floors, It was very impressive."Wow! This place is huge!" Lisa exclaimed."Yeah!" Daniel said.They both admired the beautiful design of the Empire State Building.Daniel had never seen anything like it, he was excited to get the contract.As they toured the building, they saw people working there, some of them were cleaning offices and others were preparing meals."That looks delicious!" Lisa said pointing at the food being prepared."Yeah! Those cookies look really good!
Chapter 9 "Why were you speaking so negatively about Daniel?" Lord Wilson asked. "I was angry, why did he come here? he wants to take advantage of us and you don't see that." Jules answered. "Jules! What are you saying? Don't speak like that!" Lord Wilson said. "Why are we even talking about Daniel? He has nothing to do with us" Jules said. "You don't have to talk like that!" Lord Wilson said. "He is a stranger!" Jules argued. " He's not a stranger , his parents and I were very good friends. I consider him as my son, therefore he is like a brother to you" Lord Wilson said. "But you don't have to treat him like that!" Samira said. "Leave this topic!" Lord Wilson ordered them. The atmosphere became tense in the dining room. The lord left the dinning room angry, his wife followed him. Before leaving, she turned to her children and told them "be polite to your father" She blamed them. " Mom, I didn't do anything, talk to Samira and Jules instead" Aris defended himself. A wee
Daniel did not know that he was being followed.One night, after his meetings with Mr. Dube, he went home. He was exhausted and very tired.His apartment was quiet, but he could hear someone walking around.He decided to investigate.He searched the house and finally found a suspicious person hiding in the closet in his bedroom."Excuse me!" Daniel said.The intruder jumped with fright.He was a young man, he wore a black suit and a white shirt.He was surprised to find Daniel in his bedroom.He looked scared."Who are you? What are you doing here?" Daniel asked."I... I don't know!" the young man said."How did you get in here? There is no way to enter this place without using the keypad code" Daniel asked."I don't know!" he protested."Can I ask you some questions?" Daniel asked."Yes! Yes! Of course!" the young man said."Where did you come from? Who are you working for?" Daniel asked."I don't know! I'm sorry!" the young man said.Daniel was convinced that this intruder was one o
11He fell to the ground and quickly stood up.The man who had hit him was a big muscular guy with a shaved head."You faggot! I'm going to kill you!" The guy yelled.Daniel looked at him with hatred in his eyes."I'm sorry, I was just trying to help him..." Daniel said."Shut up! If you continue talking, I'm going to cut you into pieces." The man threatened.Daniel felt afraid.So that was how we thanked him for trying to save this man's life? They were there, around him watching him die, and they did nothing.What a bunch of selfish!Daniel felt like crying.He was getting tired of them.He had already faced death twice , with the lord Wilson and now they were going to kill him for helping a stranger.Why? Like what, the proverb "Too good too stupid" would be true."Stop, please! Stop!" Someone shouted.The crowd stopped, and turned towards the voice.It was the man who was lying on the ground.His face was pale blue.Everyone was shocked!He was alive!He was breathing!Daniel app
12They both turned and saw the guard pointing at them angrily."What is it? what do you want?" Daniel asked."You are not allowed to be here, you have to leave the building right now" he said."Leave the building? we have work to do" Daniel replied."We are on the surveillance team, we have to monitor the building. If you don't leave the building, we will inform the authorities and they will be here in a minute !" he said.Lisa's heart started beating very hard."Why do you want us to leave? Can't we just do our jobs? Is it dangerous?" she asked."No, of course not! We are not like them" Daniel said smiling at the guard."Oh! You are not like them, but I am scared of you. I don't want to get in trouble " Lisa said."Don't worry" Daniel replied smiling."If we are not allowed to be here then who are we?" Lisa asked."Come with me" Daniel said.He started walking.He was acting very confident, in fact, he was trying to put the guard on the defensive.Lisa followed him.They walked pass
