"Things have gone out of hand” Brian Secretary panicked.“What do you mean? "What happened, why are you calling this early morning?” Brian, who was still feeling sleepy, couldn't hear the urgency in his secretary’s voice.“We are going bankrupt and the officers are here taking all our files to their station to investigate embezzlement.” She dropped the bombshell.“Wait what?!” He sprang out of bed immediately.“It’s exactly what is happening right now” “Shit, why haven't you called me since?!” He hung up and quickly got out of bed.He didn’t take off his clothes from last night, so he just puts on his shoes and heads out. He slid on a few pages and saw the headline.It’s over for him. Why did he doubt selling Steele’s shares off yesterday? If he had sold it then this wouldn't have happened.Yesterday, when he was on his way to sign the paper document

Henry walks into the bank he was once thrown out a few days ago when he tried to secure a loan.The manager rushed up to him and greeted him with respect. “Mr Steele, we are delighted to have you here” He flashed him a smile.Henry felt like scratching the smile off his face at that moment, the same smile he was wearing when he walked in here, giving hope last week.“Delight? "Are you?” he scoffs."Of course we are," he stammered. The manager knew he was here to insult him and boost his success in his face.He was the one that attended to him last week and said the company was hitting rock bottom, so, of course, he would rub it in his face.“Don't worry, you won't be delighted any more soon.” Henry's face was stern, saying those words with a serious tone.“Why sir? Is anything wrong with your account? "Do you have any un-issued debit?” The manager tries to get him to say why he's here.“I'm here to close my account”. Henry drops the bombshell.“What! Why? "We are the best bank, sir, a

Ethan was finally able to get out of the restaurant. He walked down the restaurant street and someone almost hit him with luggage.“Please we are going to pay”, the old woman begged.“When would you pay? "It’s been two years and I think you are starting to take me for a fool” The other old man said, raising his voice at a high pitch.“Please, I’m trying my best to pay up. "If my husband was still alive he would have paid and, you know, we always pay earlier” The woman knelt down begging him, but he refused.“Is that not the reason I left you alone for a year? "Your husband was a good man, but won’t you pay? "It’s been two years, and you still can’t do anything by yourself!” He yelled, snapping his hand from her grip.“Please don’t do this to us. "We have nowhere to go. "I have no family or friends I could call” She started crying while the kids watched their mother struggle with him.“Go and sleep on the street then. "I also need money and if you can’t pay then you should leave and le

It was dark, Ethan was all dressed in a warm shirt and ragged trousers and was about to step out when Zara walked into his room. At first, she was stunned to see her brother dressed in such a manner, but as she moved closer to him, she started to understand what was going on here.“So you truly are going on a date with that girl”“Yes, I just need to find out if she is truly a spy sent to me”“And how are you going to find out when you will be so lost in love and nothing else will matter to you?” She asked, but he ignored her question, staring at his reflection in the mirror from head to toe.“Wait, does it mean that she doesn't know about your identity?” Zara narrowed her gaze. For a moment there, she seemed even more confused.Ethan was reluctant to speak to her, but after a deep breath, he finally turned around as he held her shoulder.“There is something that has been going on which I didn't want to tell you about since I was afraid that you would become extremely worried.”“What

He was more interested in the food than what he would hear.The dining room had an intense silence in the air as they all ate in silence. From time to time, Henry could not stop himself as he kept peaking glance at Brian and then his daughter. After a while, he could not hold it any longer and decided to crack his throat.“Sophia, you were so happy when I came back today, and now it seems like Brian was the reason for all the excitement. Care to share what is going on?”“Brian has decided to push our wedding forward”, she blurted out. At the same time, Henry was about to have a glass of water and, as a result of the shock, he didn't realize when he spat it out.“Is this some sort of joke?” He sneered, his eyes turning red as he was starting to lose patience and could no longer hold back the anger.Sophia was about to speak again, but Brian immediately took the lead. “No Sir, this isn't a jok

At first, he didn't want to respond to it, but after staring blankly at it for a while, he knew that there was nothing that he could do about it.But once the call had ended, there was a mixture of fear and anger in him. He had just exhausted so much money at the club last night, and he was fully aware of the fact that he wouldn't be able to pay back if asked to do so.As he sat down trying to calm down, so many thoughts began to flood through his mind, but one thing was certain for him that this strange man might be his ticket to returning to wealth.He immediately rose to his feet where he staggered to the shower, knowing fully well how he reeked of alcohol, he knew that he had to give himself a good bath.Once he was done having his bath, he got dressed in designer jeans and shirt, grabbed his car keys and drove out of there.

Ethan sat at the pool side of his mansion, his gaze critically fixed on the water where Zara was having a tough swim. She had been excited these few days and, after everything she had been through, Ethan thought that she deserved happiness.“Wow! "That was a good one” a wide smile evaded her lips as she walked out of the water dripping wet. She picked up the towel lying next to Ethan and once she had wiped off her face, she sat next to him.“I really had a good time and can't recall the last time that I had such fun. Guess I have been too busy to even think about that.”“I guess so, and I am also glad that you have learned to fight so many battles on your own, but you also need to be careful. Most times when you think that you have won, that is when they decide to strike, and for someone like Sophia, I know fully well that she isn't going to give up.”“I am aware of that, and whatever she decides to throw at me, I will be waiting for her”, she expressed with so much determination in h

He was immediately able to tell from the stern expression on his face.“I apologize Sir, but everything doesn't seem to be alright”“Alright, talk to me and tell me what is going on?”“I just got in touch with the Winny groups”“Okay, I thought I was going to meet with them. Was there any reason why you had to contact them?”“No, they were the ones that had contacted me”, Liam mentioned, and Ethan immediately focused his attention on him

As Brian stood in front of his car, he was hesitant to speak to this man, but he was at a desperate point in his life and not to mention the fact that he had just talked about a business proposal and that was something that he could not say no to.He walked up closer to the man and as he did, he furrowed his brows, cautiously staring at him.“What do you want from me?” he asked, but there was no response from him. Instead, he pointed at the car right before him. The glass window wined down and immediately Brian could see a figure before him.He was dressed in a blue handmade suit that hung perfectly around him, his eyes were covered in sunglasses, yet Brian still felt like he knew this man.“Get in!” The deep voice commanded, even though Brian hated being told what to do, he knew that this was different.

Just then, a knock struck through the door and as he ushered the person outside, it was Brian.“Brian?” He called out with his eyes wide open, knowing that he was the last person that he had expected to see given what had been going on in their lives.“What are you doing here?” A fake smile was plastered on his face as they both exchanged handshakes.“What do you mean by what I am doing here? I am engaged to your sister and even though she has been treating me like trash lately, don't you think that I still have every right to be here?”“Of course you do, please pardon me. I was just surprised to see you, please have a seat”. Both men finally sat down. Max knew that he had no drink to offer and even if he did have one, a man like Brian wasn't the
