Harlan got to his feet, took four steps back and now Warren grabbed a gun from the security and pointed it to his head. Pulling the trigger."Stop!" Warren commands. Harlan held a confused stare, "there is no need," he dropped his hand.What Harlan didn't know was that Warren wanted to ask himself if Harlan would listen to him and obey him. He looked at the Gold card in his hand and the autopsy.Seeing the picture of his parents, he collapsed, and Harlan rushed towards him. Warren couldn't put himself together. Who on earth could be this cruel to have them annihilated, he digs his finger into the ground. all his life he had lived with that guilt. Guilt of the event from that night."Cover the young master, nobody must see him cry on his knees." He commanded and instantly a cover was made with the bodyguards intertwining their arms together. "They will pay for killing them unjustly. You're the Lord of Welsh, there is nothing you want that you won't get."Harlan had headed the Donald fa
Warren stood up and dusted himself, he walked towards the door and yanked the door handle. A voice cut across the room. "Where do you think you're going?"Warren turned to look at the old woman standing by the lobby, the old woman screamed in great dismay. "You lay your filthy hand on my granddaughter, and you're leaving, take responsibility for your actions! Street beggars like you can't insult me and go for free."Warren learnt life the hard way; he always had a soft spot for elderly women and respected the old a lot. He looked at Sawyer wallowing before she moved out of the living room in annoyance."No Grandma, I am not running away, I want to get fresh air besides I just got married, isn't that right Sawyer." Warren points his gaze at her.Sawyer rolled her eyes hearing Warren say this. "You don't have what if takes to be my husband." Warren was sure the table turned against her, he wanted to use him and now that her grandfather found out about him there was nothing she could do
"We're meeting Cosmos Dane, I wanted both of you to meet earlier but you said you were tired. He is not your regular kind of guy, Loyalty from Comos is always earned. Once earned you can't vouch for it."Warren walks side by side with Harlan. "Why must I meet him, he is paid for his hard work, that is enough compensation.""You're a Lord, young master no one can intimidate you," Harlan said before he clicked the door open and they got inside a large suite.The door shuts behind him frantically setting his heart into a hiccup of beats, Warren was offered a seat to the left in the suite.He raised his head at the bodyguard who poured wine into the glass for them. "Is this another exotic wine?"Warren asked, Harlan chuckled pouring it into the glass. "You must be acquitted from your previous line of work," Harlan said, impressed by Warren's statement."What is the cost of the wine? Our young master here is curious.""This is Chateau Margaux, it cost $219,000." Warren was not fazed at the
Warren got slammed at the door before he even entered the Lance family mansion."Is that the delivery man for the pizza?" Sawyer's sister-in-law mocked looking at Warren's old trousers and shirt that didn't harmonise with their lavish home.Sawyer bit down on her crab in the fork when she threw a gaze up to see Warren. He quietly darts to the pull-out seat beside his wife. "I'm sorry I couldn't get here on time, there was traffic on the road."Sawyer kept quiet as she bit on her food overlooking Warren's explanation. Warren keeps the box of wine beside him. he thought since he became the Lance son in law a small gift from him would create a sensation after all Sawyer approach that night made him angry and wander off the cliff to end his life, that was the terrible and memorable night of his life. he thought when he raised his hand to get the cutlery."See them, what do I call this, he shamelessly sits beside you, Sawyer you should take a picture together." Her siblings mocked. "what
Sawyer looked to the staircase of the Lance family mansion and found Jake Lance standing up there with his hands in his pocket like he owned the place.Sawyer blinked her eyes at Warren with a surface smile. "It's only a matter of time, don't worry I have got a few friends that will help and we will have our own flat." Sawyer moved ahead of Warren without batting another eye at Jake.Last year, she took a loan from the Lance private sector and got a Corolla Big for nothing car that she was driving to the company, instead of easing things for her by borrowing from her family company, she got derided and fifty per cent of the loan was deducted, she is barely left with thousands of dollar from her salary now that grandfather Oliver Lance has completely cut her off her monthly earning.The extent of having a house was almost impossible for her.Warren simply nodded, he didn't bulge, Sawyer's idea of moving out was good if not perfect.But what Warren didn't know was moving out from where?
Warren hits the wall with his elbow as he makes his call with his phone.The super bold living room was subtle with warm light when the door opened. Floyd Galen walked inside."So it's true, you've moved in with Sawyer." He hovers around Waren with a sly look.Floyd Galen's father was part of the Lance group, after he struck a great deal with the Welsh group two years ago, his status in the whole of Cleveland skyrocketed and he left the Lance group for his conglomerate.Floyd Galen had been proud and pompous ever since then, "Did Sawyer know you're here?" Warren raised his head from the ground his voice cold as dice."I'm not here for a friendly visit, Warren, but to pass a warning to a lowly someone like you to back off my family."Warren frowns his forehead. His family? "Are you a Lance? Your father left the group two years ago. What has changed? Or you're back to grovel at their feet like a loser that you are?"Warren's question hit a nerve sending a stream of annoyance into Floyd
Warren, stuck to his feet did not move forward before he turned back hesitating.The Lance family were so busy bustling with the new task allotted to them by Grandfather Oliver Sawyer, although he hadn't made it known yet he is a man with a big heart and makes sure effort doesn't come without a reward.When Sawyer struck the deal her status in the whole of the Lance group skyrocketed and no one would bother if she married a total loser.Her heart thumped loudly in her chest, if she failed to strike the deal and got tossed from the Welsh group, things would be even worse for her."Sawyer, you're incredible, it's just a matter of time till you strike the deal, don't you think?"What makes Warren so optimistic, a random beggar who has gone through hardship all his life should know better what people like the Welsh group are capable of."I'm still curious about it, Warren." He considered telling her that he was the richest man in Cleveland but that would never fly.They will mock and laug
The good for nothing doesn't know how much the car is worth–Everyone thought.A lot of workers in the Lance group wished Floyd Galen dashed them instead of throwing it away in a bet with a beggar."Let's celebrate after Sawyer, the deal is yours I can smell it from afar." Warren runs his hand through his hair with a sensitive look at Sawyer's response.He didn't expect her to be super excited, although he knew she wanted Floyd to be served a dose of his own medicine.Sawyer walked to the living room looking exhausted, her eye bag puffy and she looked up at Warren. "You were an accountant at your former workplace, can you glance through the proposal I prepared for the Welsh group.""What contract Sawyer? Don't tell me it's what I just heard?"Sawyer nods, affirming her mother's suspicion.Sawyer's mother, Isla rolled her eyes, her father had barely spoken since Warren came into their house. "You took on the contract with Welsh! That is stupid."The Welsh group sends shivers through ev
The lady did not stop there she went on to put the painting on display. With the same disgust clouding her features.Warren stared at her in shock. So her judgement was only a measure of how well each of Deerick's classmates were doing and Sawyer's gift isn’t enough. Just some hours ago before Clifford went down the drill they hyping him and celebrating the fact that he came in such an extraordinary car.One of their classmates stood up. “I brought the best wild ginseng root for you to brew your coffee with.”Derrick thanked each one of them, he collected the box of ginseng and opened it and a well-stashed ginseng root was inside, single the root had been known for its herbal benefits one could guess how much it was worth, it was worth thousands of dollars and more.Another of his classmates came down he stuffed his hand into his pocket flew his pen across the paper and handed Derrick a cheque for twenty thousand dollars.He kept receiving gifts from each other of their classmates. So
Clifford proudly replied to their questions especially when they asked about securing a spot with the Welsh group. “Sure! you can! forward your resume, my dad can’t reject your resume in my hand he will get you one of their best start-off jobs.”Warren was shocked by all this, what is this bully turning his Welsh group into? he's busy chartering people just anyone and using his father as an excuse. More so he didn’t know that the man held such a high position. but now that he knows he won't sleep over it since his son wants to abuse the connection he has.This was Clifford flashing his flamboyance and indirectly firing his father. Warren quickly pulled out his phone from his pocket and searched for the name of Clifford's father on the lists of workers at the Welsh group, he found out that Clifford was right regarding the position his father held.He then placed a phone call that was unstable and walked to the corner when he noticed that all eyes were on him regarding the race and the
Clifford had barely the temper to think if he lost face in the predefined presence of his friends they would kick him and question his integrity.Furiously he chewed on his jaw and to see his gaze to the car combustion engine with the coffee in his hand he poured it infinitely.He raised his head and glared at every single one of them gathered there. “Look here I'm not a sore pathetic loser like Warren, I will not seek the sympathy of the good for nothing Sawyer decided to marry.”Suddenly he carried another gallon and poured his car until it was filled up and was pouring with the coffee not too long one of his friends rushed to sit in front of the driver's seat and start the car.At first, the car didn’t want to start but then smoke started emanating distorting the sound of his car engine that kept going off and slipping down he stood grim despite the burning sensation in his heart.The onlookers were extremely thrilled and excited and were now talking and murmuring in the background
Warren overtaking Clifford was still a nightmare. How could a fake Spectre take over his own original and limited edition at that?This left everyone restless and in panic, lucky enough for them they didn’t get anything, unlike the patriarchs who lied down their shares just for Warren to lose.They were still dumbfounded. No one would think Warren whom they have completely overlooked will fail would overtake Clifford's car at such speeds and manoeuvresRita was a butch, she lied about Warren knowing his ways with cars and driving recklessly was a trait of a car racer.Clifford was not halfway through with the race on the road and Warren had taken a turn through the road and yes heading towards them.Vroom…Clifford increased his car acceleration but his car won’t just go fasterWhen Clifford reached the finish line, there was a loud clap resonating through the air. His eyes almost bulged out as they looked around to find out the cheers were not for him but for his opponent.He hit his
Derrick was surprised by this bet but the harder he thinks about it the more exciting it is for him.Initially, he had gone to the Fairfield company to invite his friend over there, little did he know that Clifford was the manager there, so while he was passing out the information about his launching event.Then somebody asked will Sawyer be present and you replied, “I have invited all our classmates except for you I only came here because I was having a meeting but don’t get me wrong for the late invite. I hope to see you.”After hearing these Clifford felt left out he stomped out from his office. He glared at Derrick, questioning what he meant by inviting all his classmates except him, Derrick had no option but to give the party invite to him. It was more of a forced invite, Derrick tilted his head and looked at Clifford. “Man, don’t create a scene here.”“Derrick why don’t you stay at the corner we are trying to make your launching event permeable with some play, the new guy that
This was becoming unbearable for Clifford as Sawyer looked more radiant and beautiful than before and when he also learnt that she was the director of her grandfather's group, his view towards her changed. And with her trained leg pulled out of the classic Rolls Royce car, everyone started gossiping about her.“Sawyer became exceptionally rich, wow, I knew from high school she was destined for something great.”“Stop it do you know what it means to be the director of the Lance family group,”They exclaimed. “Woah do you mean her grandfather overlooked all his sons and daughters and handed the company to Sawyer? Sawyer is lucky to be the first woman with administrative control.”“But the problem lies with her choice of spouse.”Clifford couldn’t believe his ear, “are you telling me Sawyer married that good for nothing?”They exchanged glances reflecting on high school and why he almost beat Derrick to a pulp. “Don’t tell me you’re not over Sawyer. No one would because she’s become so p
Derrick's new site for his coffee shop was very close to the Lance family group, hence the drive there would take less time for them since the road was empty and free from traffic. Warren felt pretty somehow as to why Derrick decided to open his cafè here.But then you can’t be certain that because of the past event, he would ignore the lucrative sensation booking from the place, the Lance family group was located in the heartbeat of the town.However, it was a nice and brilliant idea for Derrick to open his cafè here.Derrick Cafè, named after his family name, Walter, was located at the corner of the street with several decorations around it to indicate its launch. It was so big occupying two floors for someone who dedicated his lifetime to learning different delicacies and coffee brewing abroad.Warren drove his wife’s car with the two of them inside. He parked it at the corner when he noticed that there were a few cars at the venue already, they coming and going if the people indic
Warren got on his scooter, surveyed the cloud and did some weather checks on his phone before getting on the road.He saw that it would rain in a few minutes, and gladly the online search to check for the nearby antique shop was not that far, if there was a little speed he would get there before he knew it.He then saw one painting that caught his attention, it was an ancient painting but no modern man would know it was worth a whole hefty price. He held it in his hand and walked inside the Lance family mansion.He called Sawyer to be sure she was in the house, Sawyer gaped in surprise when she saw the wrapped frame in Warren's hand, she stared at him dumbfounded and asked. “What is that in your hands?”Warren smiled and kept it in the corner. “I bought it for your friend Derrick since were going there for his launch, I think a monument to remember us by is a good idea.”Sawyer was flattered, at least Derrick wouldn’t have to deride Warren that much.“You bought it?” Sawyer inquired,
The picky and rude customer that got fired did not only regret missing a lucrative customer just by judging them from an outward appearance he also lost his job, he reflected on her Warren told him and slapped himself across the check so hard that it ached but it doesn't ache like the pain of losing your work.As Warren stepped out of the place he felt a vomit of challenge, in a mutation he pondered on what he would tell Sawyer regarding his impulsive spending, he'd wasted money over the five thousand dollars he lied about Harlan giving him. He can’t defend himself that he’s spent within the limit he set, meanwhile, he’s exceeded his budget.He can’t say he added another money for him after all one knows what he exactly did with the first quarter.He thought about what he could do until a perfect idea struck his head, he came to a stop at a nearby shop, and he then made a call to the company that they should make it look like a normal cake that as a client he won’t want it to be too o
