Thomas POVI didn't actually have any social life apart from going to work so I decided to accept Oliver's request when he invited me out with his friends the next day.I raised an eyebrow when Oliver mentioned friends.I thought he didn't have any friends. I came over to Oliver's office when I closed from work around 6pm and he was still rounding up his work.I lay down on the couch deep in thoughts and I kept sighing."Stop that Thomas." Oliver hissed at me.I sat up and narrowed my eyes at his words."You told me that some of your friends wanted to meet me but we are still here." I huffed at him.It was already 6:52 pm."What got your pants in a twist?Just shut up and lay back down please." Oliver glared at me."Oliver, what the heck dude?" I chuckled."You have been acting so grumpy since you came in here." Oliver pointed out."That's not true." I retorted."If you say so." He shrugged."Is this the part where I am supposed to ask you what happened?" Oliver asked with a serious f
Thomas POVI remember Jerry but I don't remember us being friends or anything of that nature.Back in high school he was a big bully and he took his time taunting me for being a poor kid in their big school.I know many times I will find textbooks and notebooks in my locker soaked in water and him and his friend laughing about it.I nearly failed some class because of his stupidity.I can also remember when he would randomly shove me out of his way and I fall down and he would pass it off as him being in a hurry and calling me weak that a little push move would make me fall down.I can go on about many things he did and when I reported him to the principal it just fueled his anger that he ruined my gym clothes because of it.I didn't even have money to replace it.Now here he was sitting and laughing as if he and I were best of friends."You know I don't remember both of us being that close." I interrupted what he was saying to the other guy.Telling him how I was poor and married a r
Thomas POV The man trying to attack me didn't take my dodging his lousy attack as a cue to run but he lunge forward for another attack with his knife. I shook my head as I watched him attack blindly and I got a hold of the hand which held the knife and punched his face with my other hand,then I twisted his hand behind his back and pushed him to the ground using my kneel to hold him to the ground as his hold on the knife loosened and he let it go, I took the knife and tossed it away. Luckily I had seen someone jogging from afar when this whole ordeal began and as she got closer and saw us I asked her to call the police to which she did ,as the man struggled to use his free hand to push himself up but I punched him three times on his face and jaw and he fell back face first to the ground and I twisted his other hand behind his back holding him firmly to the ground. I would rather he get injured than he hurt me or run away. I must catch him because I don't want someone following me a
Thomas POVKate posted about me. It was an old picture of both of us outside a cafe when we were younger. She had one hand wrapped around my neck and the other formed a peace sign while I held onto the phone to take a selfie.The caption read best brother ever.The picture brought a small smile to my face but the smile turned into a sad one when I recalled what she did.If she ever considered me her brother she wouldn't have made fun of me.I still can't understand why she would ruin a good relationship over nothing.I still don't know why she did that.I mean I practically did everything I could for her but why did she have to do something so horrible to me,as if it wasn't enough she had to insult me as well.I never expected that from her.It has been over a week since she made this post and she just spoke to me like a few days ago.I don't want her starting unnecessary rumors for all I know I have no sister.I tagged Kate when commenting on her post."I don't remember having any s
Thomas POVMr Hills chuckled as he walked closer to me."I thought you were staring at the couple,the guy seems like he wants to beat up his girlfriend, maybe you should help her first before we continue." Mr Hills said and I turned back my attention to Bobby and Kate.Bobby was acting aggressive and Mr Hills wasn't wrong to think he wanted to beat Kate up but if I go and intervene it would be me calling my words a lie.Maybe Mr Hills noticed the interaction between me and Kate and was testing me."I shouldn't involve myself in things that do not concern me. I think the couple have it covered." I replied.It would be rude for me to excuse myself to tell Bobby people were staring at the commotion he was causing in front of here.If he and Kate want to be the center of attention that's their business."Oh I thought you knew the girl." He said and I shook my head.That confirms my suspicion that he saw, was he testing me?"It was a misunderstanding on her part." I corrected and he nodded
Thomas POV Mr Hills chuckled awkwardly. "Oh no, I didn't say I don't believe you,well I will get to the bottom of this and if John was wrong then fine, I will come with John tomorrow and I will make sure he apologizes to you." Mr Hills agreed. "That's better, why don't we head back inside." I offered as we walked back inside. I know that Oliver didn't like Ceo Nelson but I didn't expect him not to be here as well. Why exactly don't they like each other? I will have to ask Oliver later. After a while the event ended, I said my goodbyes to ceo Nelson and Mr Hills, before heading back home, I was very sure to tell my driver to take note if we were followed. After what happened with Stephen I wanted to be extra careful with my environment. I got home safely. The next day as Mr Hills agreed he brought his son John along with him while coming to my office immediately John walked into my office he looked like someone that had been scolded. He was acting like a kid whose candy was t
Thomas povI pinched the bridge of my nose and sighed."What sort of nonsense is this? Who did this?" I asked my secretary who brought today's newspaper to me and she shook her head."I have no idea so I just saw this and I decided that you should see this as well." She replied.My secretary showed me the hate comments I was getting on social media from the news that I abandoned my family on her phone and then I had the newspaper in my hand, gripping it to the point that it ripped a bit.Someone out there is really working hard to get on my nerves.I tossed the newspaper on the table."Take back your phone. I need to make some calls." I told her as she took back her phone."You can leave."I told her.Even though I instructed my secretary to leave my office she still stood there in front of me so I glanced up to see her looking at me nervously."Is there something else you want to tell me?" I asked her."Some of our shareholders have called to know what's going on and I reassured them
Thomas POVSince Kate wants to show me she was insane I would show her I have gone insane before her.I scheduled and held a press conference where I stated that I was an orphan who was struggling to make ends meet and survive and I do not want anyone receiving the glory of my hard work or slandering me."It pains me to see that after all that after I have suffered and after being abandoned,that someone will stand up and want to take credit for all the good things I have done for myself ,that is just stooping so low, but it won't make me regret helping her since she was like a best friend,but she is not my sister and we are not blood related in ny way."After holding the press conference, for the first time ever I made a post about Kate,because I don't want this affecting me in any way. It is best that I just make it clear now that I have no siblings and I am an orphan.I made a detailed post on my social media of how I helped Kate and saw her as a sister ,but she is not blood relate
