Nikolas POV

The sun shone brightly, its rays illuminating the skyscrapers and monumental buildings all around the city. This euphoria felt good all over my body. I adjusted my tailor-made suit as I entered the office.

As soon as I reached the lobby, a sudden cloud passing through changed the weather and its' atmosphere. The air became stiffened, and it sent chills all over my spine. From a distance, I saw an elderly, muscular man with an all-white ponytail and checked suit. He was grinning with a calm demeanor but still exuded a sense of authority. This was Don Ambrosio sitting with a burly man in a black suit standing behind him.

Immediately, I walked quickly towards him. My receptionists looked nervous as they bowed to me respectfully and greeted me. I casually replied as I reached Don Ambrosio.

"Good morning Don, I am honored with your visit today." I slightly bowed towards him. He slowly nodded back in acceptance. I moved towards him and spoke gently. "I would have prepared your w

    Nikolas POVThe whole department gasped in awe as the mother walked passed them angrily before heading to the elevator. She shoved one of the new interns who held some documents to be signed. It fell all over the floor, while the girl tripped. “Someone should please help her out,” I asked calmly. It was heart-warming to see other colleagues helping her pick up all of them and helping her to her feet.“It’s nice to know people still care.” I thought to myself as I nodded to them in gratitude. Immediately, I entered the HR room to see Richard wiping sweat beading on his forehead. His white shirt was also drenched. His eyes lit up with fear as he met the dark gaze of mine. “Good morning Richard, I can see you’ve been very busy today,” I said with a sinister smile on my face. His face turned pale. “Good morning…no, actually, I was only listening to Madam Irene as a shareholder, I would never sack an employee without probable cause.” He hesitantly replied. His hands were all sweaty as h

    Irene POVWhen I got home later in the evening, I met the butler at the mansion's doorway. He had a respectable smile and slightly bowed to me.“Welcome back, Mrs. Wood,” He said in a calm tone. I huffed as I walked past him. “ What’s good about this evening, Walter?” I snarled at him. The sky was pitch black as no stars were visible that night. The air became thicker as I climbed up the stairs. One of the domestic staff dressed in a white and black uniform stood at the entrance of my door with a well-polished silver tray and a glass of orange juice. She nervously averted my gaze as her hands slowly trembled while holding it.I gestured for her to return it to the kitchen as I slammed my huge bedroom doors behind me. I could sense a headache coming up as I sat on the sofa close to my bed. I gently massaged my temples with my fingers as I slumped on the sofa.Not long after I sat down, I heard a gentle tap on my door. Before I could respond, the doors swung open, revealing Celeste in

    Irene POVI heard a loud thud at the door. It startled me briefly. However, I snapped out my daze, seconds later I heard footsteps thumping angrily approaching the hallway. It felt like a huge elephant passing through.My bedroom door was slightly open as I looked in that direction with anticipation. Moments later, I saw the figure of Caleb walking past my room huffing. Surprisingly, he didn't stop to greet me, which was very unusual. No matter how late he got home, he always greeted me before proceeding to his room.“Caleb, is that you?” I called out. I listened keenly as his footsteps receded. He knocked on my door gently as he entered.“Good evening Mother-” he greeted in a calm voice. I nodded in approval as he sat down on a chair close to my large-size bed.“My apologies…I was deep in thoughts.” He said in a gentle tone. A wave of joy washed over me.“For a moment, I thought you forgot about me.” I said in a sarcastic voice. His eyes widened in shock.“Of course not Mother, that

    Rainora POVWe arrived at my apartment building forty-five minutes later. The ride was quiet and awkward as no one would give in. Nikolas casually glanced at me while driving, letting out a ‘hmph’ sound. I pressed my lips in protest and feigned ignorance of his exasperation.“Goodnight, Mr.Woods-” I snapped quickly at him and stepped out of his car. He had a cold glint in his eyes as he watched my retreating figure.I clenched my bag angrily as I approached the ground floor of my building. I forced a smile as I greeted the doorman and headed into the lift. Just as I pressed the button to the floor leading to my house, a masculine fist stopped the motion of the sliding doors midway.

    Rainora Nikolas’ eyes darkened as he gazed at me and Caleb returning to the office. I felt a lump in my throat. A feeling of guilt washed over me. Instinctively, I stylishly moved inches away from Caleb. The aura in the room thickened as it tensed up. Low-tone whispers were hurling around the lobby. Everyone watched in anticipation, like watching a scene out of a movie. Sensing the weird atmosphere, Caleb cleared his throat to ease tension. “Cough..Fancy seeing you here, brother.” Caleb forced a smile on his face. Nikolas remained unfazed. “I was just about to ask you the same question, little brother.” Nikolas has a smirk on his face. Caleb clenched his fist.
