SUPREMACY It also meant that Saka Tosh tended to have strong and friendly relationships across the industry.Brian seemed to see the conclusion Jeffery was coming to.“So if Nick comes to you with a sincere offer you'll accept?” Brian ask.“Of course”, Jeffery replied before frowning. “But he just wrote you a huge check. Why would he be willing to offer me anything else?”“Just latency”, Brian replied mysteriously. As Nick returned to the parking lot, his anger mounted with each step.It was clear that Jeffery and Brian had teamed up to Trick him.He had never taken them seriously before that day and it was coming back to bite him.Buying out the company wasn't an option. He had to think of another way to get the upper hand.He decided to call Lamar Johnson the president of Ramtech.“Hey, Lamar.I'm sorry, I know that I told you that I wanted to cooperate with Saka Tosh Tech.But the other side defaulted.Let me take you out to lunch tomorrow and recommend a more reputable company.How a
EROSSo by giving him a challenge that he couldn't refuse, she assumed he could never succeed.She had found a way to kick him out without being the bad mother in other people's eyes.“Why are you being so stubborn?” Samantha asked.The fact that her husband had been willing to risk their marriage broke her heart. She suspected he finally had enough of her and her family.“If refusing to give up on you or our marriage makes me stubborn, then that's fine by me”, he retorted.Her heartbeat wildly when she understood the meaning of his words. He doesn't want a divorce, she realized happily.He only agreed to the vet because my mother forced him.Nonetheless, she knew his chances of gathering enough money on time would be a nearly impossible challenge.“Don't say things you can't back up”, she whispered.He shook his head.“Let's talk about you first.Are you really so short on money you need to borrow it from other people? Is Jeffery not paying you enough?” He asked.The company's senior execu
DEALTH WITH Suddenly cognizant of the witness, he glanced at Brian. “Don't you think it would be more appropriate if we had this discussion in private? This isn't exactly a public matter”, Tony said.Samantha wanted to disagree, but she couldn't think of a reason for him to be there.“It's fine. I'll go stand outside”, Brian reply.He just wanted Tony to cancel the contract as soon as possible.He stepped out, looking back to give Samantha a reassuring look before closing the door.A long pause lingered between Tony and Samantha until he walked to the door and locked it.“To make sure I don't get interrupted again”, he said with a smile that made her skin crawl.She ignored the way his eyes rimmed her body.“I have to get home to my family. Can you please get your copy of the contract so we can shred it?” She asks.“We work in the same company, but we rarely seem to see each other. Why don't we sit down and have a cup of tea first?” He offered.She shook her head. “I really have to ge
LOVE HIMHe didn't know the turmoil inside of her. “I'll carry you downstairs and we'll take a taxi back home”, he said.She complied, wrapping her arms and legs around him. Brian, She said, resting her head on his shoulder.“Yeah”.“Don't let go of me”, she said.Don't put me down”.He froze.He had spent the past three years under the firm impression that his wife was disgusted by him.His lack of response made her tense up.“You don't have to do this if you don't want to”, she said.“I want to”, he said firmly.He couldn't fathom a world where he wouldn't want to hold his wife.If it made her happy, he would carry her to the moon and back without complaining.Before heading home, Brian and Samantha went to a clinic so she could have her ankle check. Brian carried her the whole time, except when she had her own seat in the waiting room or needed to sit on the doctor's examination table.They didn't care about the strange looks they received from other people.The couple lightly chatted the
THE CHECK“He needs to stop wasting your time” the room was silent before Samantha let out a long sigh “ oh since it looks like nobody cares for my opinion anymore than Brian I'll be moving out tomorrow”She gestured toward Brian “you can take out the money now”.Thomas step forward wearing an excited expression. “Where would you move to, you should probably wait until you're married before moving in with Nick” he said looking at the check.They both realized with a shock that the amount was in full.“What is this?” she asked. “the money you asked for” Brian replied in a neutral tone.“ where did it come from?” she asked before Brian could answer her Thomas interrupted “who did you borrow from?, one of the stipulations of the bet was that you couldn't borrow the money”. Thomas said with his eyes fixed on the check he had never seen so much money before. Samantha stared at Brian expectedly“ l didn't borrow this money from anyone this is a bonus from work” Brian explained.Brenda
HOUSINGEach place he went seemed like a poor fit. Either the area was too crowded or the curb appeal wasn't right.He needed to find the perfect house and neighborhood just as he was about to walk out of the last real estate place the realtor said. “You know, beggars can't be choosers. If you want a nicer place, you need to be willing to spend more money. You need to look in nicer areas”. Brian paused. “That's it”, he thought. He hadn't been ambitious enough in his search for a house. He drove directly to the sales office of the area he had in mind and found that there weren't many people there. He listened to the salesperson, discussed the price and details of the homes available, and building.“These houses are the best in the area, but that is also made them the hardest to sell”, the salesperson explained.A salesperson patiently answered all of Brian's questions. She had noticed shabby clothes and doubted he would actually buy a house, but she figured it would be a good opport
SCORNFULShe pulled on his sleeve like a small child trying to get her mother to buy her a toy.As her loud voice filled the office, it caught the attention of Brian, who noticed them for the first time since they arrived.Brian looked at them, his face impassive.He knew precisely why they were there. They were spending the money he had given Brenda the day before.It annoyed him that she had given away the money so quickly, especially to someone naive enough to blow it on a fast car.He forced a smile and walked over to them. “Hello Thomas”, he said, nodding at each of them.“Why are you here? “Emma, serve this man again, please”, said Hector to the young saleswoman who had been talking to Brian when Thomas had arrived.She was new and inexperienced and in his eyes, the most appropriate colleague to deal with the scruffy man trying to talk to his new clients.“No, it's OK”, said Thomas, waving his hand dismissively at Brian.“He's my Brother-in-law,” Hector was surprised. He wasn't the
PHENOMENAL“Please just tell me the price”, said Thomas. He was beginning to get scared.Hector told him the price.It was massively out of his budget, but he was too proud to admit it in front of both his girlfriend and a crowd of salespeople.“It's.No, not, not, not safe to live by a river”, he blustered.“I'd rather see one of the other ones you mention”.The girl glared at him.She knew he had nowhere near the amount Hector had mentioned, but she blushed Crimson with embarrassment at how she felt Thomas was handling the situation.Her dreams of having the grandest house in the development vanished almost as quickly as they had arrived.Hector smiled, quickly hiding his disappointment at losing such a huge Commission. “Don't worry, he said.I've got the keys to some lovely villas. Let's go see what you think.They're definitely wear a respectable man like yourself would want to live”.Thomas thought about it and relaxed, glad he was about to see a house he could afford.They needed to liv
