“And who is this peon, how dare you talk when I'm talking, I'm saving your sorry ass from this leech but you choose to side with him,” Mallory said, casting a condescending glare at both of them.
“You need to put a halt to your drama and go find somewhere to sit,” Alfred tried to be courteous one more time.
“I'm not going to sit down here and watch a pauper like eat in this Restaurant, it's an insult to the scion of affluent families,” She said raising her voice, this caused the people seated around them to stare and laud her.
Alfred was stunned and agitated at the same time, he couldn't believe that the woman he once loved and respected could turn cold and hostile towards him. He tried to quell the rage welling in his heart.
Just then the waitress brought their orders. Mallory turns to the waitress.
“Don't you know the ethics of this Restaurant, how can you save food for a pauper like him, how do you expect him to pay,” Mallory taunts, pointing at Alfred.
“And who said I can't pay for the order?”
The waitress darted her eyes on Alfred and realized he was putting on shabby clothes. she felt outraged after deducing that Alfred meant not being able to pay for the meal. Jay Tyler who had been observing and taking pleasure in the drama with a sneer on his face, blurted,
“Don't worry, I'm going to call your manager to put him in prison where he belongs.”
The waitress heaved a sigh of relief, Jay Tyler brought out his phone and called the manager immediately.
“He will be here soon,” He smirked.
“Yeah honey, thank you so much,
you are just the best. You know the high and mighty, just a phone call and everything is settled. Finally, this peasant will be thrown out here like the piece of trash that he is,” Mallory snorted with a disdained smirk on her face.
Jasmine, who couldn't put up with the insult, held Alfred's hands trying to soothe his pain.
The manager worked in, he was draped in expensive clothes. He looked a bit aged with a string of white hair in his head.
“What is the problem?” He asked, glancing at Alfred despitefully. He hated seeing a pauper in his restaurant and Alfred was the only shabbily dressed customer he could see.
“It seems one of your staff made a mistake entertaining a wretched pauper in this magnificent restaurant only meant for the affluent,” Mallory scoffed.
The manager turned to the waitress who was already shivering with a quilt.
“How dare you? Your salary is hereby withheld until it is clear the depth you incurred,” he revolted, giving a stern warning to the waitress before turning to Alfred with a scornful look.
“As for you low lif…”
“Enough of this,” Alfred bellowed, fury expressed on his face, leaving everyone stunned.
“I never said I can't pay for the meal I ordered.”
“Shut your stinging mouth, you don't need to say it. It is written all over you,” Mallory smirked.
“Try to save your stupid ass and keep quiet, you pervert.” Jay Tyler retorted.
Alfred, who couldn't take the mockery and insult thrown at him anymore, reached out to his side pocket, brought out the platinum card given to him by his Father, and shoved it to the manager's face.
“You think I can't pay right, take this card, swipe it in your machine, and deduct your money,” He said boastfully.
“Trying to show off! With this stupid card that probably won't be working and even if it does there wouldn't be a penny in it, because you are penniless,” Mallory snorted.
The manager grabbed the card from him and signaled the waitress to bring the machine. Everyone was quiet waiting for the outcome, immediately he wanted to swipe the card and he caught sight of a customized symbol of an Eagle on it.
His heart fluttered and his hands quivered. In the whole of the New Chelsea city, this type of card is owned by only three men who are the most prominent men of the city. The Eagle, Dragon, and Python are the customized symbols of each card owned by the men. Out of the three men, one happened to be his boss and had the Eagle symbol on his card. It is only people that are related to them that have access to their card. The manager shivered after realizing that Alfred might have some connection with his boss.
He immediately hunkered down to Alfred's foot and begged.
“Please forgive me, young master, I have no idea who you are, it was a mistake.” Everyone's jaw dropped as they caught sight of the manager crouched down in front of a low-life Alfred.
Mallory gasped trying to comprehend what was going on, she blurted furiously,
“What are you doing? How can you squat at the feet of this pauper? You need to throw him out and not treat him like a mini-god.”
The manager stood up and stared at her furiously.
“Ma’am you need to shut up and leave this minutes before I have the security throw you out,”
“I can't believe you are treating this low life like he is a scion of some affluent family, you need to hurl him out like a criminal that he is,” Jay Tyler sneered.
“Get out the both of you or have your families blacklist from entering this restaurant,” The manager growled at Mallory and Jay.
They both stare at him dumbfounded.
Mallory blustered, “What! you are taking sides with this pervert?”
“You heard him, get out!” Alfred smirked.
“You will pay for this,” Jay Tyler replied before grasping the hands of Mallory whose face was seething with fury. They marched out of the restaurant angrily.
The manager turned to Alfred with a penitent look on his face.
“Forgive me, young master, please order whatever you wish sir, you don't have to pay for it, accept my offer as an apology for my misconduct earlier.”He extended the card back to Alfred.Alfred collected it calmly and slouched down to his seat.“Thank you, sir,” he muttered and instructed the waitress to give them whatever they wanted. The waitress was confused about the whole scene, she nodded her head to the instructions and left. The customers couldn't help but throw a few glances at them.“Oh my! How did you pull that off? Jasmine, who was quite a while ago, exclaimed excitedly immediately after the manager left.Alfred grinned at her and said, “Let's not talk about it today, is your day,” He heaved a sigh of relief “I'm really sorry, they almost ruined your day.”“It's fine, I know that lady as a venomous woman, she always makes trouble wherever she goes,” she said, rolling her eyes.Alfred became curious, his expression skeptical, he asked “How do you know her?”“Well, her fa
The captivating decoration was magnificent, and ornamental light lit up the extravagant Williams family.It was Mallory’s younger sister's wedding day, Chloe in William's mansion, the cheerful laughter and giggling filled the atmosphere.But the joyful aura superseded as the murmur of irritation ripped through the gathered guests when a man draped in a tattered cloth walked into the house. He was greeted with a scornful look, as everyone stared contemptuously at him. He ignored the gaze of the crowd and strolled toward his in-laws. Mrs Williams, who noticed that the guest's attention was thrown towards the entrance, had assumed an important guest was arriving but when she veered around her expression shrieked fury, her gaze filled with disgust.“How did this pauper get out of prison?” she thought, gritting her teeth in annoyance as Alfred marched towards her direction. She immediately halted his step with her hand raised signifying how wretched and disgusting his present stood.“How
Alfred gave him a haughty stare, he detests the sight of Jay Tyler, and can't wait to teach him a lesson one day.Mallory commands the security to kick him out of the house.“Take this pauper out of this house”Alfred stared at her cold and indifferent demeanor, wondering how she changed in the space of two years that he left. When her grandfather Mr Albert initiated their marriage after saving his life from a deadly disease before he finally died a couple of years later, she was calm and courteous. Alfred was hoping there was a spot of love for him in her heart but now that he is back from prison, She is completely different, exuding an aura of a venomous lady. Alfred was snapped out of his reverie when a group of security men dragged him out of the Williams family. He felt the cold and sardonic gaze of the guest. Out of the Williams mansion, Alfred strayed the street of New Chelsea city with no particular destination in mind. It was getting to dusk and the weather wasn't friendly.
He assumed it was the area's thugs berating prey so he decided not to interfere but the groans came again, this time it was faint and weak. He took a few slow steps forward to where the sound was coming from, his face dripping with trepidation. A few steps closer, he gasped at the horrible sight before him, an old man lying in the pool of his blood, surrounded by dead men. Scrutinizing the dead man's physique he could divulge they were the old man's bodyguards. Alfred's heart trembled in fear, the thought of running away clouds in heart but then he caught a glimpse of the old man's hand shaking. He resolved to save the almost lifeless old man. He took a few steps towards him and hunched down, positioning his index finger on the man's wrists, he felt his pulse. “Oh! Thank Goodness,” He mumbled after detecting there was still life left in him.With the only strength left in his body, he hauled the old man who may be possibly weighing 260 pounds to his damaged car. Scrutinizing the
Sitting in a corner of the room was a young woman dressed in a cream-colored dress. The long dress cascaded over her shoulder and her features were delicate. She looked to be around Twenty-seven years old, Alfred had assumed she was the man's daughter. They were in an intense conversation when he walked in, the conversation must be confidential as all the bodyguards were sent out of the room, leaving them both in a confidential aura.“Good day sir, how are you feeling now?” Alfred asked, bowing his head.Mr Jadin and his Manager Miss Ree scrutinized Alfred's demeanor which exuded the aura of calmness and innocence. They inferred that he couldn't possibly be one of the men who ambushed him last night, though still wrapped in his tattered old-fashioned cloth with patches on some side, his face still emits the ambiance of innocence.“I'm getting better, thank you. I was told, you were the person who brought me here last night,” Mr Jadin inquired, he arched his eyebrows, his expression sk
A black Bentley Mulliner Batur came to a stop a few feet away from where they stood. One of the bodyguards opened the door and bowed his head as they all glided in. After about two hours, the car came to a halt in front of a magnificent building. Alfred found himself wowed by the exquisite ambiance. He has never seen a building so luxurious and grandiose, let alone about to step into it. The whole mansion screamed opulence. The door was opened by one of the bodyguards and they alighted. Hundreds of bodyguards and maids aligned to welcome them, each bowing their heads as they stepped inside.Alfred found himself at a complete loss for words as they walked to the living room. The inside of the mansion was luxuriously decorated with ornaments that reflected the golden painting of the building. He has heard a lot about Mr Jadin's opulence but this was the first time he is a witness to it, but what even amazed him the most is that he is now part of the family. He was snapped out of hi
“Will you be starting up tomorrow sir?” Miss Ree inquired.“Yeah, I will come and take a look at how the Empire works.” “Ok sir, see you tomorrow then,” Miss Ree stretched out her hand for a handshake, Alfred grabbed her hand feeling the warmth and softness.“I will take my leave now,” Miss Ree took hold of her pulse and bade them goodbye before stepping out of the mansion.A few minutes later, the butler came to drop Alfred off at his new apartment. He bade his Father goodbye, pledging to make him proud before departing from the magnificent manor.The Next day, Alfred arrived at The Jadin Empire headquarters before 8 am, He was ushered into the HR office by the receptionist after a rude interrogation. He stood in front of the door with a tag, written boldly on it, ‘HR: MRS. EVAN’, He knocked on it. A vulgar and hoarse voice came from the inside,“And, Who is it?”Alfred adjusted the plain shirt he was putting on, looking composed and calm. He held the knob of the door, twisted it, a
“Any problem sir,” Miss Ree peeked at his awestruck expression.“No no.”“Okay, your Father owners 30% of the companies here in new Chelsea city, and among others that are collaborating with him in and out of the City, some are doing exceptionally great, like for example IVY company with an annual revenue of Two trillion dollars, followed by Fiver, NikeTech and so on. In the Jadin’s Empire headquarters, we managed and monitored the progress of each company. This is the headquarters of all the companies owned by your Father.” She explained.“The reason I had to suggest you work as sales personnel is so you have the incites of the sales and purchases of each company. See to the smooth flow of cash in and out of the companies.”“I see, can I get a copy of this sent to my email, I need to examine them thoroughly,” Alfred muttered.“Okay sir, I will do that right now.”“And I would like to visit the Semond company tomorrow.”“Okay, do you want to inform the manager about your coming?”“No,

Miss Ree glared at him scornfully and commanded the security to kick him out.“Take him out of this premises, right now.”Nicolas Flame, figuring out that Alfred could save him, scrambled to his feet, pleading for his forgiveness.“Please forgive me, I didn't mean to insult you. Save me from this shame, I will spill out the truth about the money, You never stole the money.”What!Everyone gasped for air, on hearing the Manager declare openly about the theft. Alfred darted his eyes at him with rage seething through his face.“I said kick him out,” Miss Ree roared, her face turned livid.The bodyguard hurled him out of the company, Everyone watched with trepidation written all over their faces.
