“Why would Matthew be locked in jail? What exactly did he do?” Veronica says, yelling on the phone to her manager who is still sticking by her side even when the company is falling apart.“It seems he was caught siphoning Oceanic Enterprises shares. That is all I know.” Owen, her manager says through the phone.“Weren’t you able to speak to him at the police station. He has been there for five days. What the hell is going on!?” Veronica says. “He is not allowed to receive visitors yet. My friend at the station told me that Bright group has filed a case against him and all his bank accounts have been restricted to pay for his crimes.” Owen says and Veronica begins to cry.“That damn bastard! I lied to the loan company that I needed $10,000,000 for tax evasion. I borrowed it because I thought I would get it back with returns. Matthew has ruined my life!” Veronica says and caughts the phones.“Well, what did he say?” Agatha asks, clutching her blanket over her body.“What do you think m
At Bright group, Azura enters into the office of her teammates. Yesterday’s argument in her family showed how dysfunctional the family truly was. Her mother is the kind of woman who would put her daughter towards any rich man that she comes in contact with. Gazing at the mirror, Azura adjusts her red lipstick and tackles her bangs.Sometimes, people have mistaken her for her sister and other times, more than a few people have told her that she was more beautiful, a younger version of Veronica. For years, Azura has looked up to her sister and wished to be like her. It all changed when she began to see the true characters of her sister after their father died.Veronica began to lead the company and at that time, she got married to Daxon. There was never any interaction between Azura and Daxon. She didn’t understand their marriage and why Daxon even put up with the family. He worked in their company and her sister didn’t bother to pay him any salary.It didn’t make any sense to her. Azur
From the highest floor, Daxon looks below to his staff and their invitees. It’s like a king staring at the things of his own creation. Bright group has about one hundred and fifty staff who keep the company thriving. This is a grand event and he is ready to introduce himself to his employees. Bright group which was created by his father is popularly known as a well-established organization with significant presence in society, and also one that leaves a notable impact on various aspects of the country’s economy. It is a group that pumps billions of dollars into the country and actively participates in the circulation of income inflow.It is the headquarters of every of their subsidiary company. As long as one lived in the city, Bright group can be recognized as that tall skyscraper, at the center of the bustling city. It is a company with thirteen floors. Therefore, each floor has a team and their team leaders. They are from different levels and grades but all together; they are the e
Daxon watches as Veronica yanks Azura and drags her out of the ballroom. At that point, Sydney is on the stage and she has called upon Daxon to introduce himself to his multitude of staff. At the multitude of the resounding clap. Daxon remembers that it is his cue.Confidently, he takes off his mask and everyone is trying to see how it is. The staffs begin to gasp in loud tones when they see his facial features and his elevated height. Daxon passes through the pathway, their eyes are in him as he climbs the stage.If only Veronica and Azura stayed for a second, it would have been revealed that he was Daxon. It is such a close call. “I’m so pissed!” Veronica says, looking at her ruined dress. “If you will stop being so indignant, you could have watched where you were going.” Azura says and Veronica claps back at her in haste.“Hey! You are the one who made me upset by speaking to that riffraff. You are supposed to help me be on the lookout for the CEO of Bright group.” Veronica says.
Veronica flees to her room but to her disappointment, they have begun to take out her vintage collectives and other things that have significant worth.“No, you can’t take that!” Veronica says, trying to block the moving staffs. They do not answer her and they practically take everything leaving her mattress and dressing table. It almost looks like someone came into their house and robbed them of everything. Veronica rushes downstairs where Uncle Samuel is talking to Sydney.“You have to listen to this, Veronica. They won’t throw us out.” Uncle Samuel says.“What?” Veronica replies, she did not believe that any miracle could come out of this. “The loan company has already taken enough that will cover the unpaid interest and initial amount. So, half of the house and some of the furniture will remain yours.” Sydney says and Agatha gets up from the floor in relief. “Really? You are not going to kick us out!?” Agatha asks. “No, I just explained that. We have changed the locks of the se
With a glass of wine in his hands, Daxon goes through a list of files on the table. He is alone in his luxurious house that has a worth of $20,000,000. Just after he got the keys to it, the news instantly hit the headlines, magazines and media about his newly acquired purchase.It seems there isn’t anything he can do that will not warrant the public’s interest. They refer to him as the most suitable and promising bachelor in the country. What else can a girl or guy ask for? Daxon is the youngest heir to a multi billionaire company and he isn’t in any relationship. As the most sought after bachelor in the socialite environment, there are many who have their eyes on him. As well as business men who want to compare themselves to Daxon in terms of intellectual, intelligence and tactics.After firing Matthew Creed and removing him from the list of partners of the company, Daxon has to choose a new CEO and it must be someone he can rely on. He has asked Sydney to bring in the files of peop
“Sir, I’m sorry for intruding but why did you ask me to involve Azura Pierce specifically? Do you know her?” Sydney asks as they wrap up the documents and call it a night.“Yes, I do.” Daxon keeps his reply short and Michael gets on his feet. “Sir, just like you ordered, the police station will release Matthew Creed tomorrow. It has been ten days since he was locked up.” Michael says.Daxon remembers and rests his back on the arm chair. “He has nowhere to go after being released from prison, I think he will come here to beg for mercy. What should we do when he arrives?” Michael asks.“Alert me when he arrives, do not toss him out.” Daxon says and Michael understands.Soon enough, Michael and Sydney leave my house and I have the time to think about what I want to do about Veronica and Azura. When Daxon was still married to Veronica, the only thing he knew about Azura was the way she never involved herself in the family matters. Daxon tried to talk to her on many occasions but she nev
Daxon’s office is a symbol of authority and leadership within the Bright group. It is the largest and most prestigious office in the building, situated at the thirteenth floor with panoramic views of the entire city at his hand. In his upscale office, he allows Azura to enter and she looks around in complete bewilderment. Of course, it must be shocking that he owns something like this, an office as big and grand—it is a revelation. She looks around in wonder and Daxon waits for her to ask questions. Ever since he became the heir to Bright group, people from his past will never believe what they see and it amazes him how much they would go to deprive him of it.The thing with Azura is, she isn’t asking questions or making accusations. Is it because she knows already? They have a complicated relationship—they have been in-laws who do not know anything about each other.Azura on the other hand thinks deeply, her plans and moves are very strategic. Daxon has never been a mind reader, it
