“When’s he gonna be here?” The guy she was smoking with asked, antsy. “I got someplace else to be.”
“Chill the fuck down,” Bianca snapped, looking downstairs.
“He’ll be here any moment.”
As predicted, Felix walked in, already greeting people and clasping hands with some

The instant Felix sat in his car, he got a call from an unknown number. Lately, paranoia was his new normal. It could be a reporter trying to get a hold of him for some cheap exclusive. How did they always manage to get their hands on his contact no matter how many times he changed it?“Hello?”“Do you want to get your company back?”Felix was immediately taken back by the sudden question.“Who is this?”“Do you want to get your company back?” the person repeated.“Of course I want to get my company back,” Felix snapped in irritation. “What kind of a question is that? Who are you?”“Well, we can help you ““Help me how?”“You should come meet us at the address we’ll send. Come whenever you’re ready to talk.” Then the line went dead.Felix stared at the screen of the phone in awe. His heart was also beating very fast

Another day at work.Another day to endure till his muscles grew tense beyond control.He was in the administrative belly of the Ellington building. Wren had brought him here herself, as an unusual escort for what she said was an organizational task.She pointed at the cabinets. “These contain the due diligence reports, asset valuations, and preliminary integration blueprints for the Morell acquisition. Your task is to organize them by phase, then by subject, then by date. When you're done, create a master index and any inconsistencies.”Wren then handed him a blank ledger and a pen. “Tjere should be no digital copies. Everything stays in the room. I'm sure you understand how sensitive this is.”If only one person was to understand the sensitivity of the task Wren had just given, if was Felix.Right in that room was even information on Morell Industries and Wren's future plans for the company; ranging from what she intended to ke
Once An Overlooked Housewife, Now A Queen Of Fortune Chapter 225 Aperture.
The name of the gallery Simone worked at was called Aperture.She has been working there for a little over two weeks as the Gallery Coordinator, which meant she managed the calendar, liaised with the six artists the gallery represented, wrote copy for the website, and, three days a week, manned the desk at the entrance. The pay was quite a fraction of what she used to get as monthly allowance from her trust fund. But she still diligently worked anyway.Her coworker, Maya, was a willowy woman with ink-stained fingers and a collection of oversized cardigans. She had a master’s in Art History from a public university. Maya had no idea about the Morells, or their scandal and she has only hired Simone based on the fact that she showed competence during her interview.“Do you think the cobalt piece in the back reads as too confrontational next to the wheatpaste series?” Maya asked one quiet Tuesday afternoon, frowning at the far wall.Simone looked up from her computer. “I think the confron

Every third Tuesday, Agnes walked through the iron gates of the Ashford Women’s Club building. And she served as the Vice-Chair of the Arts Subcommittee for 4 years consecutively.But today, the attendant at the gate had the audacity to ask for name?“Name, please?”“What sort of question is that? Don't you know who I am?”I'm sorry ma'am, but I have to confirm your name to be sure it's on the list,” the attendant answered politely.Agnes glared. “Of course it's on the list. Let me in. I'm the VC of the club. Agnes Morell.”“One moment, Mrs Morell.” the lady picked up a house phone and turned away to talk to someone.Less than a minute later away, another woman walked out the portico.“Agnes. Hello,” she greeted without opening the gate.“Open the gates,” Agnes ordered.“Could you step this way for a quick word?” the woman told her and Agnes frowned but followed Margot a few paces to the side.“Margot, what is this? I’m going to be late for the luncheon.”Margot clasped her hands in f
Once An Overlooked Housewife, Now A Queen Of Fortune Chapter 223 The Secretary and the Seduction
Just as agreed upon, Felix started work the next day; handed his employee card by Julianne. When last had he used an employee card? That was back when he still used to work for Maria…before he married Wren.He was directed to a desk workstation, which was between some other young workers. He got stares, which he noticed but ignored, and he made no eye contact with anyone.And on his desk was a stack of five banker’s boxes and a sticky note on top of one of the boxes with Julianne’s handwriting:“Chairwoman Ellington’s 2022-2023 correspondence. Please categorize by sender, topic, and urgency. Then digitally scan when it's complete.”It was busywork for sure. Plus he was being asked to do intern work. Felix knew that the correspondence Julianne asked him to attend to, must have already been digitized somewhere. But they were giving him manual labor to occupy his hands and humiliate his mind.He took off his jacket, hung it on the back of his chair, and started work anyway.At 9:15, anot

It has official been 2 months after the big scandal.Which was enough time for Felix to decide that he had to get back his company, one way or the other. And of course, in the most legal way possible..And to do that, he had to get to Wren.Knowing Wren wouldn't want to meet directly with him, Felix scheduled a meeting with her under the under the name of an anonymous consulting firm. He was to meet with her 9am that morning.He waited in the lobby of Ellington Innovations headquarters, a place that felt both familiar and alien, waiting to be summoned.“Mr Arden?” The secretary called politely.“Miss Ellington will see you now. Please follow me.”The first thing Wren did when she saw ‘Mr Arden’ walk into her office was scoff. Felix found his way to get to her afterall.“And to what do we owe this August visit, Mr Arden?” Wren started.Felix swallowed a light lump down his throat. It was his first time coming face to face with Wren sinve the scandal, and what he felt, at that moment, w

There are lives built brick by brick. And then there are the moments when one watches the structure tilt, and realises that gravity is no longer a theoretical force but an executioner with perfect aim. Wren was living in the space between architecture and avalanche, which was that terrible pause be

“Has he heard?” Wren asked Omar.There was only one person whose knowledge of her downfall mattered in this particular way. And their awareness of her humiliation would be a secondary punishment layered over the first. But that was kind of a useless question anyway, because of course, her father wo
