After a while of waiting patiently, Jane’s heel echoed in the stairway as she descended down the stairs.She was effortlessly breathtaking.She seemed to have the same effect on Vincent every single time.Vincent watched keenly as she carefully walked down the stairs.She wore a fitted, rich-burgundy coloured dress with a high slit in the front that was almost reaching her thighs.It had a low square shaped neckline with a thin rope in a criss cross design that held the backless dress firmly.She wore a thin black coloured heel that complemented her Black Hermes Birkin Handbag along with her long thick brunette hair which she had in a low bun tied down with loose side braids.Every single thing she had pieced together screamed perfection, she was gorgeous.She didn’t wear the clothes, the clothes wore her as it was her figure that reflected the complex design of the dress.She walked up to Vincent who h
His lips curled into a sinister smile as a glint of cruelty flashed in his eyes. He muttered "It's about to go down"Watching the following events unfold before his very own eyes; a crooked smile etched across his lips, revealing his perfect set of white teeth.Vincent observed the scene from afar where he sat with Jane at the very edge of the hall.With The deafening silence that enveloped the room, eyes watched him keenly, trying to unravel what was going on at that moment.Richard continuously refreshed the page as there seemed to have been a network error; or so he thought.His persistence in reloading the page seemed to yield futile results as he repeated this action incessantly.Beads of sudor began to emanate from his forehead as he took out a white handkerchief that was neatly folded in the left chest pocket of his suit.He tried to reiterate the transaction but he kept on receiving the same error messages as the ones he had been receiving on his previous retries."Insufficie
Richard and Elizabeth stood on the main stage in front of everyone, feeling completely embarrassed.This was the height of it as Elizabeth prayed for the ground to open up and devour her.To make matters worse, they were both still wearing the sash and crown that they were adorned with.Just a while ago they were both feeling on top of the world and now, they are being ridiculed and belittled by the people that used to respect and admire them so much.Trying so hard to hold back the tears that were about to leave her eyes, she stylishly looked up in order to avert the salty stream that was about to overflow her sockets; one that could ruin her makeup.Darting his eyeballs from place to place in all corners of the room, he lanced at each and every single one of the people he thought he had a relationship with.Richard just couldn’t believe his eyes and his ears.These murmuring voices grew louder as overlapping chatters began to fill his ears and surround his mind, secluding his body f
With the metal rod that one of them held in his hands, he hit Mr. Thompson hard on the right leg.Causing him to lose balance so that he would quit struggling with them while they continued their mission with ease as they had been ordered to.After they had finished robbing him, they fled into different directions as Mr. Thompson lay on the ground screaming in pain.Mr. Thompson didn’t show up at school for three whole months after that.Richard was finally satisfied that the threat was gone.He thought that the man got scared and left the school.It turned out that they had broken the bone a little above his ankle, destroying a muscle which prevented him from walking properly.That eventually led to the permanent limp in Mr. Thompson's right foot.Also, the important documents he had earlier were for the custody of his child.Losing the papers that day was not the major problem, but unfortunately, he s
Richard reluctantly collected the letter from the HOD as the man walked away without saying a single word.The HOD was a middle aged man of very few words, he barely said much but his actions usually spoke with volume.Richard tore off the seal on the envelope and slowly unfolded the neatly folded paper inside.In this envelope contained a letter.The students immediately recognized what it was because it was the exact same envelope that was handed to Mark David the very day he got expelled.It was definitely an expulsion letter.The look on Richard’s ace changed the instant he read the letter.His heart dropped as the feeling of embarrassment and sadness loomed all over him.Richard finally left the stage and went out to the school’s parking lot where he had parked his All white Range Rover.He rolled his right palm into a fist and punched it against the window, creating a few cracks in the tinted glas
“Oh, my darling,” Mr Issac said as he gave his daughter a hug.“I thought you wouldn’t come to visit your father”“Dad…If I don’t, who will?” The girl asked as she lightly chuckled at Mr. Issacs childish thoughts.“Pardon me Mr. Vincenzo”“This is my daughter Jessica”“Jessie this is Mr. Vincenzo, the new heir of the Chin Chain consortium”She was surprised to hear that.Usually, the heir to most of these consortiums were old men and in fewer cases middle aged.This is because they spend more than half of their entire lives growing the consortium and working their way to the top.She took a brief glance at Vincent with a flirty gaze, maintaining deep eye contact as she shook hands with him.“Pleased to meet you” She said in a soft voice as she continued to stare at him.Merely looking at Jessica, one would describe her as a goddess, the way she looked, spoke and comforted herself was e
The entire ride home was a very quiet one as the only thing that could be heard was the whistling of the wind hitting against the windows and cars that sped past theirs.Vincent and Jane finally arrived at Ms. Anna’s residence after a short drive.Vincent alighted from the car and proceeded to the passengers seat in the front.Just as he was about to open the door for her, she helped herself to it and alighted from teh car as she picked her purse and walked away without saying a word to him.“Jane, are you okay?” Vincent asked feeling concerned by the way she acted.She turned back to look at him with a straight face “I’m fine”“Go home, It’s late” She said whhile maintaining the look n her face as she faced forward and continued to walk toward’s the main entrance to the house.Vincent got into his car, intending to drive back home.He knew that something was wrong and Jane did not seem too happy with him “But what wcould the matter be?”. He thought to himself as he started the caHis
“What about the office itself??” Richard asked with a puzzled look on his face as he seemed to be getting even more confused by the minute.“Sir, the address you provided was a hotel, It’s a well known hotel along Maple Residential Area” “There were also no banners at those areas that you claimed to have seen some”Vincent’s eyes widened as he felt the ground beneath him crack.The Attorney’s words had just sent a cold chill down his spine.His mind drifted to several places at once as he couldn’t think of anything at that moment.Richard stayed that way for a moment, taking time to properly digest the fact that he was doomed and there was absolutely nothing that he could do about it.His body suddenly turned cold as he had his eyes fixed on the desk staring at nothing in particular with an empty void look on his face.“You said that they sent you an email once, right?” The attorney’s voice resounded in the overly quiet office as it snapped Richard out of his trance.Richard’s ey
