Ferdinand was taken aback by the statement, " A ghost, what do you mean by that?" He inquired, getting more confused.But before he could question further, the old man changed the topic," You have found your real identity, Ferdinand, but not the whole truth about your parent's death." The old man revealed." My parent's death? What do you mean? They died in a car accident." Ferdinand replied.But the old man shook his head. "Till now, all the problems you have faced were minor problems. You must be ready to overcome the real problems. Your parent's death was not just an accident. There is more to it."As the old man rose to leave, Ferdinand hurried after him. " Wait," he called out."We shall meet again, Ferdinand." the old man's words lingered in the air as Ferdinand watched him as he stepped out the door.In a rush of curiosity and emotions, Ferdinand sprinted outside, only to find that the old man was nowhere to be seen.Ferdinand where he could have gone that fast. The old man wa
As Ferdinand sat comfortably in his plush seat at the corner table of his upscale restaurant, Kyle stood next to him, his posture straight and alert."Kyle, why don't you take a seat and relax a bit?" Ferdinand offered, gesturing to the empty chair opposite him.Kyle shook his head. "Sorry, sir. I need to remain standing. It's part of my job as your bodyguard."Ferdinand chuckled. "Come on, Kyle. We're off duty now. Sit down and free yourself up. You deserve a break."As if on cue, a waitress approached their table, balancing a tray laden with steaming Chinese dishes and a bottle of wine. As the waitress poured their wine, Ferdinand noticed Kyle refraining from drinking. "Kyle, you should join me. A little wine won't hurt," Ferdinand encouraged, pouring a glass for his loyal companion.Kyle hesitated, shifting uncomfortably. "I appreciate the offer, sir, but as your driver as well, it's against my work ethics to consume alcohol while on duty."Ferdinand waved off his concerns. "Oh, c
As Serah returned to her dorm, heart heavy with the weight of Damien's harsh treatment still fresh in her mind, she hoped for a moment of solace in her own space. However, the chilling realization hit her as she stepped into her room - her belongings were neatly packed up, ready to go. "Britney, Nicole, what's going on here?" Serah questioned, her voice tinged with confusion and anxiety."We've had enough, Serah. We don't want you as our roommate anymore," Britney stated bluntly, with a hint of disdain in her tone. "But why?" Serah's voice trembled slightly as she tried to grasp the betrayal unfolding before her eyes. "Because being associated with you makes us look bad," Nicole added, her expression cold and calculated.Enraged by their shallow reasoning, Serah's emotions erupted. "Backstabbers! You're all just a bunch of fakes!" she accused, tears welling up in her eyes. Despite feeling hurt, Serah couldn't hold back the truth any longer. "You think you can fool everyone with
Ferdinand sat in his office, meticulously reviewing the details of the upcoming meeting with the transporting company. As the CEO of a booming cosmetic company, he knew he had to search for a reliable partner to ensure the smooth distribution of his high quality products.Since Damien's father was no longer in the game, he decided to pick another transport company which was one of the biggest competitors of Damien's father's companyAs he sat there, Duke entered the room with a cheerful smile on his face.Ferdinand raised his head up and smiled when he saw who was there. "Good morning, Duke! I trust you're prepared for our meeting with the transporting company today." "Good morning, Ferdinand! Absolutely, I've got all the necessary documents and information ready to go. We've got this!"Ferdinand nodded in agreement, and they proceeded to the meeting. Upon arrival at the transporting company's headquarters, they were ushered into a sleek conference room where they were greeted by th
After the two armed groups had lowered their weapon ls, Mr X stepped forward, his piercing gaze locked on Mr Bob. "I am Mr X," he said in a low, gravelly voice. "And it seems we both want the same thing, albeit in different ways."Mr Bob raised an eyebrow, intrigued by the mysterious man standing before him. "And what exactly is it that we both want?" he asked cautiously.Mr X smirked, a glint of mischief dancing in his eyes. "We both want to take down Ferdinand and his grandpa," he replied. "But I have a better plan than simply killing them."Mr Bob's interest was piqued. "Oh? And what might that be?"Mr X leaned in closer, his voice barely above a whisper. "I have a way to seize control of the Hawthorne Consortium from the Hawthorne lineage before we eliminate them," he explained.A sly smile spread across Mr Bob's face as he considered the proposition. It was risky, but if successful, it could mean untold riches and power for both of them.After a moment of contemplation, Mr Bob e
Ferdinand sat across from Annabel in the bustling coffee shop, nervously stirring his latte as she studied him with curious eyes."So, Ferdinand, what do you do for a living?" Annabel asked, sipping her cappuccino.Ferdinand hesitated for a moment before replying, "Oh, I'm just a regular guy looking for a job. Nothing too exciting."Annabel raised an eyebrow, clearly not convinced by his answer. "Hmm, interesting. Well, if you ever need a job, my father's company is always hiring. Here's my number, give me a call if you're interested." She handed her business card to Ferdinand.Ferdinand felt a rush of excitement at the prospect of working for Annabel's father's company. Maybe this chance encounter was the stroke of luck he had been waiting for.As they chatted more about their interests and hobbies, Ferdinand couldn't help but notice how easy it was to talk to Annabel. She was funny and charming, and he found himself drawn to her more with each passing minute.Suddenly, Annabel glanc
As Ferdinand was eavesdropping near the door of Anabel's office, "What are you doing here?" a voice inquired. Startled, Ferdinand turned around and was taken aback to see Sophie standing there, her eyes widening in surprise.Sophie?" Ferdinand gasped. It had been months since they last crossed paths at their Berkeley University graduation. Sophie too seemed equally stunned to stumble upon Ferdinand in such a place, looking rather strange in his casual attire."What brings you here?" Sophie questioned, breaking the silence. Ferdinand flashed a sheepish grin before replying, "I'm here to work." "But why would a wealthy man like you want to work in a company?" Sophie asked, raising an eyebrow in curiosity. Ferdinand shrugged, "It's a long story. It is complicated""And what about you? What are you doing here?" Ferdinand inquired."I have every reason to be here, this is my sister's company." Sophie revealed.As Ferdinand observed Sophie, he couldn't help but notice the resemblance
Ferdinand gave Sophie a cryptic smile. "All will be revealed in due time, Sophie. Trust me, Marcus is here to help us take this project to the next level."" Are you sure you two don't know each other?"" Anabel asked, feeling curious about the two."Not at all." Ferdinand lied, trying to bring down the tension.Anabel, sensing the tension in the air, quickly changed the subject. "So, Marcus, when do you think you'll be ready to start working on the project?"Marcus considered for a moment before replying, "I'll need a couple of days to get everything in order. How does that sound?"Anabel's face lit up with excitement. "That sounds perfect! I can't believe it will only take a short while for us to get started."Sophie sat at the table, giving Ferdinand questioning looks. She couldn't quite figure out what he was up to, but she trusted that he had something up his sleeve.As the meeting came to a close, Ferdinand stood up from his seat. "I'll leave you all to get started on the project
