He walked towards the elevator room as the woman had said and switched the button. Fortunately for him, the elevator was free. He hurriedly entered again and just then, his phone rang. It was his mom calling. He already knew that she would have gotten the information that he had not made it to the conference room." Mom!"" Where are you? They want to see you before the meeting starts. Everyone has been asking whom my son is and now, you're not there! They all all patiently waiting for you!"" Mom, I'm almost there already…"" Just don't keep them waiting, okay?" " A director is waiting for you since you may not know your way around!" " No, it's fine. I can take care of myself!'" I've instructed him already but if anything goes wrong, you can let me know!" She said and hung up while he sighed. Just then, the door opened and he came out of the elevator doors and was met with the room right in front of him just as the waiter had said. Looking right in front of him, he saw the inscr
The ladies had completely forgotten their manners and had forgotten the fact that they had actually came for a meeting while they beat and hit him with all of their might. But then, the scene already caused a great ruckus and had changed the atmosphere as even some of the CEOs stared at them." Hey, what the hell is going on there?" One of them asked and pointed at the scene which really looked so serious." They are beating a man and have claimed that the man offended them. Meanwhile, the director had stood so impatiently outside and when he did not see Jack, he went back inside. Just then, his mother sent him his contact and he hurriedly continued to dial the contact, wondering where the hell he was because they were waiting so hard for him. But then, somehow, he was drawn towards a small scene and he walked towards them and saw a man, being beaten so hard while the women forgot that they were in a public place as they hit him with all of their might. Hold on… isn't this the m
" Dad, you really mean that poor man is the heir?" She asked again. It was just too hard to comprehend that such man was in charge of them and she had hit him so hard alongside her friends. What the hell had she really gotten herself into?" Of course, you dummy! See what you've just gotten yourself into! I called you severally just to let you know that he would soon be around! Just for you to earn his favour! Imagine someone like him become my son-in-law, how good would it seem? You have destroyed everything!" Goodness! She had destroyed everything with her very own hands! She had always imagined how good it would seem if she also got married to a very wealthy person, even though she came from a wealthy family and when her father had come home after a meeting and had told her how he had seen Jack, she had been so thrilled, especially hearing the fact that he was already single. She had then imagined that she would do everything it took just for her to please him and now, she had in
The next morning, Jack had hurriedly left the hotel because he wanted to be one of those people that would be there early and probably, he would be able to gift her what he had gotten for her before her nuisance friends from the office came over. Just as he left the hotel and was about to call a cab, a sports highlander car sped over and stopped right in front of him. He was about to walk forward because he thought that she may be an hindrance to the other taxis coming and just as he was about to leave, the car door opened and a woman came out smiling." Good morning, Mr Jack!" Iris said and smiled as she removed her sunglasses and walked towards him. This woman? What the hell was she doing here? Was she here to cause trouble again for him? This time around, he would make sure that he would not be lenient on her! He thought again and formed a very hard expression on his face." I guess you don't know my name! I'm Iris and I'm sure that it's not possible that you may have forgotten
Watching the man she already admired so much leave, she glared at her phone and picked it up." I don't understand what's going on, Iris. The last time I checked, I did not offend you, so, what's this issue and fuss all about?" " I think it's time we end this relationship, I'm not interested in you anymore, okay?" She said harshly and kept on looking at Jack till he left, wishing that he would take her along and let everyone know that she was his soon-to-be girlfriend." What the hell did you just say?"" Fuck off, Kelvin! I can't do this shit anymore, okay?" She said and frowned as she left the arena. Just then, his phone rang and he stopped abruptly in his tracks. Mira was the one calling him. He had actually planned to call her because he did not get the route to her house. She must have called to check up on him as usual.He thought and smiled as he picked up the call." Happy birthday, dear!" He said and smiled. Mira was a bit taken aback by the fact that he had called her dea
" Fine! I will go ahead and bring him!" She said and sighed as she walked back and saw that Jack was trying to dial someone. She had figured out that he must have been trying to call her." This way!" She said angrily and walked grumpily." You must have learned your lesson for you to come back to pick me up"" Can you just shut up? You need to understand that I literally don't like anything about you!"" The feeling is mutual"" What? You should be begging on your feet by now because people like us have the contacts of big men that can literally change your pathetic life. See how stupid looking you are" " Really? Whose contact of big men do you think you have?" He asked amused. Was it not John and Henry they all rolled with? The fact that Henry must have taken a special liking to Mira made him realize that they all would just be so close. So, if at all, she had the contacts of rich people, it would just be people in John's gang. " Have you heard of the great Henry Johnson? Do you
It was fucking expensive! She thought as her eyes dimmed. Where the hell did he get such money to buy such for her? The last time she checked, he was just a common manager, so, how come? She thought in shock and looked at the bag. This bag was the latest bag from the Louis Vuitton brand and even her sister had been trying to get the bag but all to no avail. So, how come he was about to get the bag? She thought in shock and looked at him again." Jack, tell me this is not true!"" Do you like it?" He asked and smiled. Now, he was getting more interested in her again. If they got really close, he would make sure that he would spoil her till she did not want anymore. He thought and smiled the more." Yeah… it's good" she said and smiled.She was not a fan of bags but then, this was a very good bag. Just then, her friends walked forward and looked at what he had actually got for her. The moment Zoe saw this, her eyes widened at first. Had she mistaken such a man for a commoner? She tho
" It's over there, ma'am" the maids replied while she turned towards the bin. " And what the hell is wrong with you? What's with you and this commoner? This is not my sister! I don't know you! I don't understand who exactly you are again!" Zoe yelled and stood up as she looked at her sister." That bag is mine. And watch how you talk to that man!"" Since when did you start caring about how I talk to commoners? Since when had it been your business?" " Don't you realize that he got a fake bag for you? What does a commoner want to offer you that the family does not offer? Was he the reason you chose that company? Is he the reason you did not want to come home and kept on claiming it was all because of me?" She yelled angrily as she watched Mira go ahead and empty the trash bin all because of the bag. This time around, Zoe lost it completely." Is that your boyfriend? Is that the person that you really love?" " What? No! He is just my very good friend" she said and brought out the ba
Few days later, Jack finally attended Miller Creeks party even though he initially did not want to go and this time around, he went with his girlfriend because he wanted to make her known. David Brown looked at his stepbrother with a lot of anger and wished that he would kill him. As if Miller Creek knew what he was thinking, he held his shoulders as he used a smile to welcome his guests. " You don't have to worry about what happens today. So far I have my own deal, we are good to go! Just play your part" He said while David nodded his head. " After all, it's all because of that bastard the old man would not even look at me!" He said as he showed Mira to his guests. Meanwhile, Jack who did not even know whom his stepbrother was yet smiled as he shook hands with the business men there. Some were people he knew and some were people he didn't know and wanted to connect with. " Hi, Good day" David said as he shook hands with Jack while Jack looked at him. he was sure that he ha
" It's not what you think it is, Evelyn" Mira began while Jack looked at her. Was she really that ashamed to let this woman know that they were lovers? He thought again. " I am sorry, Mr Kings. I did not know that…."" Evelyn." Mira said and glared at her co-worker and finally looked at Jack. " Mr Kings, I will talk to you later about what happened!" She said while Jack just looked at her angrily and left the scene." That confirms it! You are dating our boss"" What? Listen, there is nothing going on between the both of us! What makes you think so?" She said. Evelyn was a woman that wanted to know about a lot of things and that was what Mira was trying to rectify before it got out of hands." Mr Kings and you? Gosh! You guys do not even fit each other. He deserves someone better than you! I can't believe that he…'" And I am telling you that what you think you know is not true at all! What the hell is wrong with you?"" Oh really? That is coming from someone that bargained her way
Few days later:" Did she accept my gift?" Jack called that fateful morning after he had taken Fabiola advice just to get back the woman he loved so much." Mr Kings, she seemed like a woman that does not want so much noise. We are sorry because we tried our best just to make sure that…."" Are you trying to tell me that you did not do your jobs so well after the huge amount of money you had gotten from me?" Jack yelled out at the man. " I am deeply sorry, sir. She did not give us a chance at all before she chased you out. It looks like you would do this yourself" The man said while Jack sighed. Mira had never given him such a hard time but it was just too hard to have told her the truth! He thought and looked at his laptop. There were a lot of things he had to work on but unfortunately for him, it looked like he would not be able to work on it anytime soon. How could the woman he loved so much be so mad at him and all he would do was to continue working as if he had no thoughts ab
" Mira … I am sorry" Jack pleaded again and looked at Zoe. " I would have loved to introduce you to someone that is now very important to me in my life" " Is that why you are here? My boss is not even supposed to be here in the first instance. So, Mr Kings, I would like it if you use the exit way" she said firmly while Zoe looked at her sister. She could see the determination and stubbornness in her already. " Zoe, I love your sister so much even if she thinks that I am not trustworthy enough to fall in love with her but trust me, what I feel…."" Get out! Right now!' her sister said again while he nodded and left the house. " Master, how did it go?" The driver asked him while he sighed. " Just face your front and drive!' he said firmly. ***" Mr Kings, when you want to shoot, you stand straight and focus on the target closely. Then, you shoot" Fabiola said while Jack shot his gun three times without listening to what she was saying. Right now, they were at the training ground wh
" What would you like to take?" Zoe asked with no expression on her face. She had truly seen this man on TV the previous week and was even the reason she rushed down to see her sister but then, her sister would not even tell her where he was. Now, he showed up at their doorstep looking all expensive? Who would have believed that the poor church rat that eveyone dispised at home would turn out to be someone like this? She thought again and frowned. How could he have managed to have fool them all? At first, she did not want to believe it but she had managed to see the car he brought to such a shabby street and it was even a car that her father could never afford to buy no matter the situation! It was too expensive plus it was her dream car! Well, if her sister was not talking about the man, maybe she would also have to not overstep her boundaries. " What I would like to take?' Jack asked and chuckled nervously even though he could see through her. He did not know whether to smile o
" Where to, master?" The driver asked Jack while he held his head. Now, he realised how much of an idiot he was! He did not even know his girlfriend's apartment! How could he not even have any idea of that when all he did was make her angry? Does this mean that he was not meant to be in her life but he could not even do without her! Jack thought again and placed a phone call. " Mr Kings, we are…."" Don't bother about working on anything, Jason. Just get me the additional information of Mira at the company including where she lives. Five minutes" He said and hung up before Jason could say anything else. After few minutes, he was able to find out her location. " Allen avenue" He muttered while his car rolled into the road leaving Fabiola who had been watching him speechless. Soon after his car pulled over after a very exhausting day, Jack managed to finally trace Mira's house even though his driver had a very hard time locating it. He even managed to doze off on the way when it
I am happy to see that you are all hale and hearty" Kings snr said and smiled as he looked at his grandson. This was few minutes after the party but then, he had an inner pain within him. He knew that his son would face a lot but even though he could see how strong and capable he was, he still seemed so naive. " Thank you, grandfather and I promise that I would make the King's legend strong" Jack replied while he checked his phone again. Gosh! This was a surprise party he also wished that Mira would have come for but it turned out that she was still mad at him. Had he really done something that bad? How could he be the one in a position and he would not be able to help the woman he loved so much? Jack thought again while he felt his grandfather's hand on his. It was obvious that the man was so old. " There are a lot of things bothering you. Including the fact that you would have a very hard time proving yourself but son, I want you to take your fighting lessons so serious because y
" Jack, are you sure that you can help me with the goods ?" Mira asked Jack who seemed to be so pissed off at the moment as she looked at Jack. They were currently in her house. " are you okay?" Jack asked her instead. he could see her struggles and could see that she was doing just everything possible to make sure that she would combine her work with everything else but it did not seem to work out. In the end, she sighed as she looked down dejectedly." Do you want me to help you out with anything?" He asked again. " Eveyone would not stop looking at me as if I am the bad person and I do not even know whom the CEO is that thinks that he can just make my heart to break"At this moment, he did not know whether to let her know that he was the the CEO and in the end, when it seemed like she was about to break down in tears because of what she was passing through, he held her hands. " Mira, baby, everything that you are passing through over there is all because of me"" What do you mea
Mr Kings, you sent for me?" The head of the interviewing personnel said as soon as he rushed into Jack's office. It was his first time in such a big office. He looked at everywhere aside from Jack because he did not want to stare at him. Jack had a very scary aura that he could not keep up with no matter the situation. " So, I heard the news flying around that a particular woman has bought her way in because she is seducing me and it turned out that the peroneal you set up started it."" What! I am sorry sir but I made sure to caution my team after they had uttered those statements. I did not know that they wanted to make things worse." Bright said while Jack bit his lips. All he wanted to do was just to fire these People immediately because of how annoying they were. He wanted a safe and condusive place for the woman he loved and now, they were making it hard for them. In as much as he did not want to anything just to hurt her, he knew that she would be so pissed off at me when she
