BEATEN “Ohh, Mr. Seymour, Brian said as he came between them, smiling as he reached out his hand to the other man.Your reputation precedes you”. He stared at him in surprise, wondering where this man had come from. Brian took the other man's hand and shook it violently, and the fat on his body rippled like water. Gritting his teeth, he mumbled something indistinctly.Seeing Brian's interference, Samantha quickly hissed. Brian, stop it.She turned to Clyde to offer an apology, but Brian let go of the other man's hand before she could.As he did so, he pushed the other man away. Clyde stumbled back, tripped over a chair and landed on his rump. He watched a murmured, wincing as he rubbed at his backside. His glasses had fallen off, and he grew up around the floor to find them, even as he groaned in pain. “I'll deal with you when we get home”, Samantha said through gritted teeth, glaring daggers at her husband. Brian had offended Clyde Seymour the moment he entered the room and
GOOD LESSONHe shook his head. “They wouldn't know what to bring me but You do”.Just as she was about to retort, Clyde interrupted her.“Hey look, if it makes your guard feel better, I can wait”.He glanced at Brian and studied him, appraisingly. “It's not easy to be a security guard. They have to protect their bosses at all times. I understand he's just doing his job”.Clyde hoped his words would make her hurry up. He hated wasting time.If she made her guard feel better about things and willingly joined him in the room, he could do with her as he pleased. The guard would be outside and there would be nothing he could do for her.“Well, if you say so, Mr. Seymour”.Samantha stepped back and scooted around Brian, heading for the hallway. “I'll be right back," she said as she passed Brian, she murmured threateningly. “I'll deal with you when we get back home”.Then she disappeared down the hall.Clyde and Brian stared at each other in silence. “Why don't you have a seat while we wait?”
THE LETTERThe weight of the matter is that if the deal Samantha has made with him falls apart, she'll take it personally, Jeffery said, concerned.I don't know if she would recover from that. Brian knew that with Samantha's strong personality, she would only become braver the more they fought.But he didn't want Samantha to have to deal with the aftermath if Clyde did try anything. “She'll be OK”, Brian said.“She has me watching out for her”. “That wife of yours doesn't know how lucky she is”, Jeffery said, sighing wistfully.He felt bad for Brian. No matter what he did to shield Samantha from those who would harm her, she would never know it, much less know how to respond.In the following days, Brian busied himself with Sea Cloud Technology matters.On one hand, he had to let Nick believe that Sea Cloud was nibbling away at Saka tosh Tech.On the other hand, he had to turn Sea Cloud into his strategic weapon. The work kept him busy and stressed. He didn't know how Jordan and Liam h
BRANDY “But aren't you curious as to why she wants to meet?” Jeffery asked. “I mean, the photo alone is concerning.Plus, why was it sent to me?” Jeffery glanced across the room at the other two men, observing their conversation carefully.He turned back to Brian and added. “You don't have to let anything happen.Your faithful to your wife, but you need to settle the matter, especially about the photo”. “Do you want me to spy on Brandy for a while?” Jordan asked. “I really wouldn't mind”.He winked at Brian. Brian kicked out at Jordan playfully, as he said “get out of here”.Then the four of them laughed together.Later that night, after the city's lights appeared in the streets became lively, Brian reluctantly headed to the meeting with Brandy. Room 611 looks no different from any other rooms from the outside, but Brian had asked around and learned that it was a themed room. He stood at the door for several moments before knocking.When no one answered, he swiped the card and
UNKNOWNOriginally he had planned to surprise Samantha with it on her birthday, but now it seemed that he might have to fast-track that idea. After cleaning up the table, he decided it was time to visit their new home and see how the renovations were looking. San Juan Creek was like a shining sword, splitting the new city into two. The villa he had bought was situated on a fine plot of land pie above the riverbank, like a king of the surrounding sending houses.Although it was a fine house among many in the complex, it had been placed commandingly above the other homes to emphasize its noble status.The gardens around the property were finely manicured and grant.As Brian pulled into the driveway, he rolled down his window to observe the busy workers renovating the property and grounds. His. thoughts drifted into daydreams of the time he would present this exquisite home to Samantha.“Well”, he was deep in thought. He heard the sound of a car horn in the drive behind him.The sound w
UNBELIEVABLEHe was devastated by the realization that he had tried to get rid of the owner of the house, someone even wealthier and more powerful than Mr. Viera.“Mr. Maxwell, I really didn't do it on purpose.I was just thinking about the safety of the house”. “If I had known that it was Mr. Maxwell's house, I wouldn't have dared to try to send him away”.“Please forgive me for this”.The contractor was extremely scared as he awaited his fate.Scott remembered that the cause of the incident was the unruly contractor. He slowly walked over and looked down at him. “You sure are brave. You even dared to kick Mr. Maxwell out”.The contractor said nervously. “Mr. Viera, it's all because of you that I've been so vigilant about the security of the place”.“Are you trying to put the blame on me?” Asked Scott.“Absolutely not, Mr. Viera”.The contractor was so disappointed that he was almost in tears.Brian walked over, padded Scott on the shoulder and said with a smile. “Forget it”’. The tru
PRETENCENick felt relieved and said.”Mr. Viera.Tell me what you wanted to speak to me about today”.Scott said.My father is part of a different generation and doesn't understand what we young people are after.Although everyone in San Clemente is afraid of me, there are also some people who gossip behind my back.They say that it is because of my father that I act so mighty and that if I wasn't his son, I wouldn't even deserve to lick their shoes.I don't want to be thought of just being my father's son.I wanted to make a name for myself and I want to become stronger”.Scott raised his voice as he was filled with righteous indignation.He continued.“People pretend to respect me, but I know that they just look down on me. Mr. Tomlins, don't tell me you also look down on me like that”. The truth was that Nick did look down on a Playboy like Scott and felt that he was different from him.Even though he had a powerful father, he disdained taking advantage of his position.But Nick Have been
DEJECTED“ I'm very sorry, Miss Ragnar.But you're not able to buy this house because it says here that the place already has another offer”. She was talking about Samantha , of course.However, Mrs. Ragnar was someone who is used to getting what she wanted.She would have a house if she wanted it, even if another client was agreed.When she heard that the house was already sold, her face darkened and she said, “I don't care if the place already has a buyer, that's your problem. I just want to buy the house”.The sales agent was frightened and quickly agreed. “Don't worry, all sorted out”.That was something Brian hadn't expected. He planned to buy the house secretly.Then when Samantha was out of options on where to live, he would show her the beautiful Riverside house he had bought and surprise her.But now there seemed to be a better solution.With Mrs. Ragnar wanting to buy the home, Samantha would have no choice but to admit defeat.He looked at the agent and said.“Since this lady
