Christian stared at her for a while then sighed heavily."Hello Stanley, where are you?" He asked the instant the call connected."Oh, I drove the car to refill the fuel. Are you done sir?" He asked and one could hear the noise in the background."Yes, I guess. When will you be here?" He asked then there was silence for a while before Stanley finally said."I think by 10 minutes from now," He replied and Christian's eyes widened slightly in surprise."You must have gone somewhere far," He muttered then said,"No problem about that. I'll be waiting," "Okay sir, thank you," Stanley said the Christian hung up the call."Today was supposed to be fun," He muttered then sighed heavily. "When last did I have fun? I've been busy lately," He muttered"Where do you think your drive can be by this_" He paused as the person who stood before him before was no where in sight. "_Time? Alice!" He yelled the shoved his phone inside his pocket as he started looking for her."Alice?" He called out agai
"I don't really know who she is but she is someone that has enough status to harm the lady over there," "That was what he said," Christian muttered as he placed his phone in his pocket and stared at the fast moving images outside.A few minutes ago, during the time Christian was questioning the man. The bar lady arrived with police behind her as she had heard about the streams and grunts and when they saw the bloody scene they couldn't help but worry that one of them had a gun with them."Please you have to follow us to the station and give a report about this incident," One of the policeman said and Christian nodded."That should be alright, but that lady over there is drunk and this men tried to force their way on… her. I am sure one of them have a weapon with them," He said with a calm and collected look on his face and when the hoarse man heard what he said he couldn't help but vomit blood."You!" He yelled angrily but the cold glare Christian sent at him caused him to shrink bac
There was silence for a while and everywhere turned awfully quiet. Christian's cold and indifferent gaze stared intensely at the petite figure with a cute face in front of him and the same goes for the lady.Her huge doe eyes stared at Christian with a surprised look on her face but when she saw his cold and different gaze, she gasped and quickly looked away."Oh dear. Christian meet Precious. She is my newly appointed personal assistant and she is an African-American. Hey Precious this is Christian," Alice introduced the duo with a forced smile on her face as she didn't expect Precious to meet them in such awkward situation.Christian stared at the woman in front of him for a while then nodded in acknowledgement then looked away."Mm… Ma'am, I already signed the documents and has given it to them." Precious said with a soft smile on her face."That's good. You can look for a better sit and watch the event," Alice said the lady nodded then turned to leave but not after she shot a glan
"The time we all have been waiting for is finally here. It will be an honor for this organization to present the Emperor's award to the one very bigshot in this house. The reason why this prize is called the Emperor's award is simply because this organization is one that is strong enough to feed a country. Please welcome me as I call upon the CEO of…" The host said then kept quiet and everyone couldn't help but be on edge on their seats, well it was most of them.Harry stared at everyone who seemed nervous for the announcement then shook his head and stared at the host with an arrogant look on his face."Since the Figiolo got the Grand prize. It isn't shocking to know the fact that my company will be the one to take the emperor's prize," Harry said with a smirk on his face. His assistant stared at him for a while then frowned and said."Sir, our income can't feed a country," He interrupted his thoughts and Harry frowned and flashed him a look of displeasure."Will you stop talking non
"You are disgusting, when will you learn, you this disgusting bigger, I bet you will leave her also once you reap off her money, who let a poor beggar like you enter, the security aren't doing their job,they should have thrown you out of this place." Stephanie said with disgust evident in her voice, turning to Alice, "He will leave you after he exploit money from you; leave him now before you regret it later, or I won't be surprised if you go broke later." Stephanie said coldly. People directed their gaze to Christian. Christian seemed unmoved by Stephanie's harsh words. "Is he really a gold digger?I really can't believe this. He dressed well and he looked so nice. I even envied Alice because she has a good looking partner," someone said from the crowd. "He is really disgusting,how dare a beggar like him act like one of us." "You have a pretty face, though; how about I be your sugar mummy for tonight," a lady said, and everyone busted into laughter except Alice. "Don't mind her, y
Silence took over as Christian held the phone and placed it on his left ear."Oho! Who do we have here? I thought you wouldn't pick the call," A cold baritone voice sounded from the phone which was then followed by a soft sigh."When will you return to the underworld and challenge me? I've been waiting far too long don't you think?" The voice continued without a care In the world. He didn't bother to hear if the person that picked the call was Christian or not."Anyways, bye. I'll be waiting for you in the Vertice of Gods. Maybe by then we can have a little chat about life, adios!" He said then hung up the call. Christian stood there for a while , his brain tried to register what just happened and it took him a few seconds to realize that the call had ended.He stared at the caller's ID then tried to call the number but all he got was that the number doesn't exist."Which old man is trying to play a prank on me?" He muttered, his brows furrowed slightly then he shook his head and shov
At the same time. Christian walked out of the venue with a calm look on his face as he waited patiently for Stanley to come pick him up.He had already told him about where he would be and the young man asked him to wait a few minutes and he would be there."So… you are leaving?" Just at that moment, Alice's soft voice sounded behind him prompting him to place his phone in his pocket and turn towards her direction."Yes," He calmly replied and didn't say anything after that."You are such a mystery man," She said, then smiled and stood before him_ a few inches away from him. Christian would feel her breath on his face and that was when he noticed that she was drunk and as he realized that a frown appeared on his face and somehow that deja Vu feeling brushed against him."History does repeat itself in the most unexpected way," He muttered then slowly backed away."You knew you can't handle alcohol and yet you still drink them," He sighed heavily then took out his phone and prepared to
Two days after the event a lot of things happened and the media made sure to do their jobs and keep the most trending news. One of them happened to be Rolando's company, Stephanie's company."What do you mean our sales are dropping drastically every second?!" Stephanie screamed frantically and banged her hands on the table without a care in the world. There were too dark lines under her eyes as though she hadn't slept for days, and that was the truth.'It's because of that foolish man I called my ex husband that is the reason why I am in this mess!' She screamed frantically in her head then closed her eyes to collect herself."What should we do?" She stuttered and stared at her assistant who at times has a split personality depending on the mood she is in."We face the consequences of your action ma'am," She smiled then walked over and submitted a document on the table."Here, in there are the records of all the business partners the former CEO of this place was able to gather and fro
