PRETENCEWhat was it?It's fine, she said, rolling her eyes.It turned out that being late had saved Brian from an argument.She had gotten so angry because he hadn't returned as she was ready to hit him.Though she calmed down by morning, she no longer felt the need to talk too much.A good night's sleep had put the problem into perspective.She realized she didn't need to discuss it, she only needed a little more time to solve it.Besides, Brian wouldn't know enough about what had happened that day to be of any help to her.“No, tell me, please”, said Brian.“OK”, she said reluctantly.“There were two things, actually.Firstly, Catherine told me she was going to be away for awhile and not to worry about it”.“OK”, said Brian carefully.Not sure what the problem was.“Surely it's normal to say that to your friend?I definitely say that to my friends.But she also told me that I should be nicer to you”, she continued, ignoring his reply.“Why do you think she would say that to me?”Brian was su

He got out of his car and found a staircase inside a nearby door. He ran up to the third floor, two steps at a time. Doug's office was the largest room on the floor. Seeing no one was at the assistance desk. He entered the office without knocking.Not worried about formalities.He looked round the door to find Doug in a compromising position with his personal assistant.The man jumped up and smoothed down his suit.

SECRETThe one thing he thought he had buried had come back to the surface again, and the man from SAKA TOSH Tech was chatting to him about it politely, as if it were nothing more serious than a splinter in his thumb.He had to play very carefully if he was going to turn this situation aroundUnfortunately, panic set in first.He got out of his seat and walked toward Brian.As he approached, he fell to his knees.“You can't tell anyone about this”, He begged, his hands. “brian.If you want Northern Lights International to work with your corporation, just tell me what I need to do”.He looked as if he was about to cry.He never before met anyone with such a thorough knowledge of his past.He was sure that the man might even know about his secret bank account that he used to launder money.He desperately hoped that the strange man sitting in his office might show him some mercy. “All you have to do is say something very easy”, said Brian. “When miss Madison comes in to meet with you, hand

MEETINGGina, her personal assistant, walked in.And all thoughts of checking up on Brian vanished from Samantha's mind.“Stephen Meyer and I are going to have lunch at Jacques Bistro across the road”, said Gina.“Would you like to join us?”Samantha wasn't hungry, She was just about to refuse when she had an idea. She hadn't picked a restaurant when he arranged to meet with her.Perhaps if she took him to Jacques Bistro she would have some colleagues to help her deal with him if he became difficult.“How many of you are going?” She asked.“Is there a problem?”.“It's just that Doug Parkinson of Northern Lights International wants to meet me to discuss this collaboration.If I take him there, we can all discuss it together”.“Good idea”, said Gina. “I'll just go tell Steven and the others”.Samantha heaved a sigh of relief.Couldn't have been better.Gina left the office.She pulled her cell phone out of her purse and wrote a text message.She sent the message, a smile playing on her lips.J

FAKE OWNEREven Samantha had to agree with them. “It's no laughing matter”, she said. “If my job doesn't kill me first, my mother certainly will with her obsession about big houses will”.“Maybe we need to move out sooner than we planned”.Brian didn't answer.Brenda had become much Bossier recently.If Samantha was thinking about moving out, she couldn't be happier.Recently, she had been thinking about living in the Harmony Square neighborhood.she found a small house she liked, but someone had beat me to it.She had been bitterly disappointed.Knowing that she was both upset and too busy to house hunt while she was working, Brian made a decision.“Why don't I find us a place to live?” He suggested.He was more than ready for them to move out. Every night when he came home, Brenda would make some sort of comment about it.

They'll blame us for the damages.Even worse, my friends will find out I lied to them”.She charged forward, intending to stop Brian however she could.However, just before she reached him, she paused as Brian's key slid smoothly into the doors lock.All of the girls watched, taken aback.As the door to the villa opened.They all looked back and forth between Brian and Ella.Ella stared at Brian. confused.One of the girls asked doubtfully.“ how did this homeless guy got the keys to your house?”.Ella Scrambled for an explanation as her friends looked at her. “Ooh, yeah, I remember him now. He's one of the landscapers. That's why he's hanging out here. He's working”.“That makes sense”, her friend said. “Look at how he's dressed”.Another girl said.Why else would someone dress like that?

THE TEAHowever, Brain raised his hand to indicate to his men to stand down, and they obediently retreated. “Mr. Maxwell” ,Duke said politely. “Please forgive me.I'm not from a high class family myself so my men and I don't follow some of their rules”.He stood up and stepped to the sideboard where a silver tea service was set.Report a cop and offered it to Brian.The bodyguards were stunned. “This man kidnapped the boss's son”, one thought. Who shares the boss pouring tea for him like this is a social visit and thought it was weird that the boss chose to meet here where we have to be careful about violence.“And now I'm even more confused.What's going on?”Brian accepted the cup and lifted it to his lips.He inhaled deeply before taking a small step.“Thank you”, he said. “This is good tea”.he snorted to himself as he drank his own tea.To most people who tease tea, he thought. “What could this ignorant man know about fine tea?”Brian lifted the cup again and inhaled the aroma once more

BATTLE Brian bit his tongue, he recalled. They had threatened to break both of his arms.Now one's mouth has apparently been hurt and the others arms have been broken.“ Just what did Brian do? How could he have the strength or the knowledge to take on two former soldiers at the same time and actually defeat them?” Duke thought. The guards yell had attracted the attention of the bar staff, who had alerted the manager.He burst into the room, followed by several bouncers.What he saw he was two guards lying on the floor, he gasped in disbelief. “Who did this”, he wondered. “What kind of monster could do this to these men?” he saw that Duke was sitting unscathed on his chair and he breathed a sigh of relief.His attention then turned to the other person in the room.When he saw Brian, he did a double check.“That's the young man that saved Brandy a while back”, he thought.He couldn't have done this.Before he could even guess what was going on, he jumped up. “See all this right?” He demand

JELOUSYRoss shoved him aside. “You want me to give you another chance? “If I keep providing protection for you and your store, how am I going to explain that to Mr. Maxwell when he finds out? it's best for you to just shut the whole store down at this point, otherwise, next time He comes here, he's going to be offended that you're still here, and then you don't want to offend Mr. Maxwell”. He said to the manager. “I'd laugh if anyone else said that. But if it's what Ross thinks is best that would only mean I'm done for it wasn't easy to get to this point. I thought with Ross providing protection, I could do whatever I wanted. I never thought I would offend someone that even Ross is afraid of”. Ross just looked down at him, “Let me give you one last piece of advice”. He said, “try to be a good person from now on if you know what is good for you”After leaving them all, Laura was in no mood to continue their day out, so she and Brian got in the car to head home.Laura was clearly p

THE MANAGERBrian tilted his head thoughtfully “Ross? he asked.“you're not talking about Ross Gilmore, are you? the same guy I had a little chat with yesterday” he thought.“I think I left quite an impression on him”.“ you know Ross Gilmore?” the manager asked. “You could say that” the manager was surprised but then he saw Laura’s panicked expression clearly showed she had also heard of Ross or at least she knew of his reputation.“that's right,” he said “My shop is under Ross Gilmore’s protection so if you two both get down on your knees and beg for mercy I’ll consider asking for less compensation, otherwise you'll have to beg Ross for mercy” “and at this point, the compensation is the secondary”. he thought. just look how pretty that girl is, Ross, is going to be very happy when he sees her”. many people in the crowd had also heard of Ross and his reputation as a local thug they were not surprised that someone as Petty and nasty as the owner of this store had someone as vici

CHAOS Brian smiled at her but did not comment.The shop manager returned in short order with a Gray scarf draped across his arms. “Go on, Brian, Laura said. “Try it on and see what you think”.She lifted her hand, but the manager turned and held the scarf out of reach. “What?” She asked. “ Aren't you going to let us see it before we buy it?” The manager replied. “You've already seen and handled the other one.Isn't that enough?Except for the color, the two scarves are identical. Come up to the register and I'll get you checked out”.He smiled arrogantly. “They Caused the most trouble”, he thought. “They really need to put their grubby hands all over a genuine branded cashmere scarf.The rich ladies who come in here just point at what they want, pay the bill and leave without any fuss”. Laura's eyes flashed with anger. “Is that how you do business?” She asked. “If you don't try on clothing.How will you know if you like it or not?Maybe we won't like the feel of it.But we won't know until

OUTBURST Laura looked up from her plate of eggs and watched her sister confused. She glanced at Brian, who shrug. “I don't know exactly what's bothering her, but I can guess” he thought. “But I don't wanna talk to Laura about the whole situation with Brandy.That's too much to get into this morning”. “Hey, sis.Did you forget that Brian and I were going out for a fun day today? You should come along.Change your clothes. I'm gonna leave right after breakfast”. “No thanks”, Samantha replied. “I have some important things I need to get done today|”. “Is there anything more?Important than.Quality family time”.Samantha stood up. “You've got Brian, you don't need me”. She left the kitchen.And they heard her bedroom door closed a few seconds later. Gary Wandered into the kitchen, still half asleep.He looked from Laura to Brian. “Where's Samantha?” He asked. “I thought I heard her voice”. “Well, she's not here”, Laura said. “She's having a hissy fit or something”. “Come on Brian, let's

STILL IN LOVE“I'm glad to hear it”, said Brian. “If you'll excuse me”.With that, he walked over to the backstage door. He was determined to see Brandy, and Ross had held him up long enough.He could hear the sound of television through her door, it sounded like a cartoon and you could hear her laughing loudly at it. He Knocked several times before she heard him. “Come in, She shouted once she finally heard his knocking. “Ohh, it's you. Hello”.She walked over and gave him a huge bear hug.She squeezed him so hard he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He said eventually. “Are you trying to kill me?” It took him a moment or two to disentangle himself from her grip.“You never change, do you?” He said, his words full of affection.He always spoke to her with the affection of an older brother talking to his favorite sister. Annoyed, Brandy pounded him on the chest.Always hoped that Brandy would stay as innocent as a child, but that was never going to be the case.Uncle Sam had already to

BRIANAs he realized that Brian had seen right through him, anger began to take over.He had a powerful urge to kill him.The slower and more painful death, the better.However, that was something that would have to wait.Murdering Brandy Hall's friend in a busy bar wouldn't win him any popularity contests. It was a plan he would have to save for another day. “Don't be so quick to criticize me”, he said. “You may have gotten away with it this evening, but I will get my revenge on you soon”.“I wouldn't be so sure about that”, said Brian.“But I can be sure”, said Ross, a smile starting to appear on his face. “I have a Big Brother and plenty of friends to help me.Next time you might not find the bartender quite so helpful”.“You're going to hide behind your Big Brother?” Asked Brian. “Why is he someone special?”The door to the bar opened.A man walked in.Ross smiled. his Big Brother had just walked in and his timing couldn't have been better.The man saw Ross and walked over.Ross began to s

THROW HIM OUTRoss was surprised that the bartender knew him, but he certainly wasn't complaining.He knew they had backup when it came to making Brian's life even more miserable than he had hoped. “He's the scruffy man over there”, he said, pointing to Brian's back. “He's trying to go backstage to see Brandy, which surely is a serious offense.My advice is that you have him evicted immediately”. “Well, we could always ask Brandy what she thinks”, said the bartender. “After all, she's the star performer.It's only fair that she should decide if she wants a visitor”.Ross was not impressed it wasn't the answer he had wanted to hear. “However”, continued the bartender, winking at Ross. “If she doesn't want any company, young Rossier gets to decide what to do with the unwanted visitor”.Everyone in the room held their breath, listening very carefully. “What's the punishment?” Ross asked one.Ross smiled. He made a choking gesture to the crowd, much to their delight.A huge cheer went up, sig

CODY’S BAR“Don't worry, maybe Brian will come with me”, said Lynn.Samantha looked at her. “Since when have they had such a good relationship?” She thought.But she didn't bother to ask Laura directly.“What's happening tomorrow?” She asked instead.“I thought you were busy”, said Laura. “But seeing as you're asking, it's a social event organized by the college. I thought you might have wanted to come with me”.She sighed.“If you're busy, I'll ask Brian. he won't mind coming with me. he'll make sure I'm OK”.It's sorted Laura, Take Brian”.

UNEXPECTED His friends started to laugh mercilessly.By that time, Samantha was in earshot.When she heard laughter, she relaxed, thinking they had already resolved their differences and made-up.Deciding not to get involved, she stayed out of sight around the corner and listen.Has she gone around the corner, she would have realized that she had gotten it drastically wrong. Brian and Ross were staring at each other. Neither had any intention of backing down.Ross threw his cigarette butts on the ground and stepped on it. “I've had enough of your nonsense. It's time I taught you a lesson.Lesson”. Brian repeated questioningly. “A student?,I don't need to be taught a lesson.I think you've got it the wrong way around”. With that, he stepped forward and landed a blow in Ross' stomach”.Ross doubled up, completely taken aback by the punch.As he struggled to catch his breath, he couldn't believe such an unassuming looking man could be so strong.
