The exquisite restaurant was filled. The atmosphere was beautiful, and the tables were beautifully arranged, just like a five star restaurant should be.Couples, family, and friends were dining. And the classical music in the background gave a beautiful feeling. Glancing around, a smile made its way to Stacey's face as she darted her eyes to look at Nicole, who was seated across her. "Beautiful isn't it?" Nicole asked, smiling nonchalantly as she looked around the restaurant, finally resting her eyes on Stacey, she said, "We can make millions every year if we buy this five star restaurant." Nodding her head, Stacey reached her arm for the documents to rest on the table. Briefly glancing at them, she raised her head to look at Nicole. "And this is…." Before Stacey could complete her sentence, Nicole enthusiastically finished it for her:"This is the agreement," Said Nicole, sitting back as she elegantly crossed her legs. "I have already signed it, read it carefully and signed it." A
Another day.Around 10 am. At El Paraiso hotel. In Jack Littleman's office. Lawrence was seated across from Mr. Jack Littleman. While Jack was seated on his office chair, typing something on his computer."Mr. Roth… how can I help you?" Jack Littleman asked, his eyes focused on the computer screen.Hesitantly, Lawrence opened his mouth. But he couldn't find the right way or words to ask what he wanted to ask. He didn't want Mr. Littleman to get suspicious, and ask why he was asking about Arthur.Closing his eyes, Lawrence somehow mustered up the courage. "That day I saved your granddaughter from getting hit by a motorcycle… and you told me that I should call you if I ever need anything." Lawrence reminded. He sighed silently and continued. "I need a favor." Said Lawrence, his eyes monitoring Jack's reaction.Jack raised his head, his eyes locking with Lawrence's, and he asked. "Yes, what can I do for you?" He smiled. He was very grateful, this man saved his granddaughter, so anythin
When Arthur told the smug director, that he was fired. The guy didn't believe him, he thought Arthur was trying to crack a joke. After all, Arthur looked too young to be his superior."HEHEHE funny, kid….." The director said in between laughs, and judging by the way he was laughing, it was clear that he was high on drugs.Suddenly the,directors expression darkened as he looked at Arthur. "Now get out before I call security." He threatened, disdainfully looking at Arthur who was seated across him. "You're fired." He added, waving Arthur off. Guess the complaints about him were true. The employees at dream enterprises complained about the Directors mistreatment of workers below him, and that's what Arthur came to see. And he was proven right.Without saying anything, Arthur pulled out a gold plated black card, setting it on the table. The black card had Arthur's name written on the side.Taking his eyes off Arthur, the director, stared at the exquisite gold plated black card, his eyes
"So you mean you never had sex or got close in any type of way with your ex husband. Even though you slept in the same room with him?" Nicole was surprised. How does a married couple sleep and stay in the same room for two and a half years and not be able to touch each other?Taking a sip of her coffee, Stacey looked at her friend, shaking her head slightly. "Yep." Throwing her free hand in the air, Nicole replied. "Oh, I get it… an arranged marriage. And he was rich, but he was not able to please you?" Nicole said, her face forming a disgusted expression. "It was not that… ." Stacey replied, with a dejected look. She let out a sigh. Looking at her friend, she replied: "… I was forced… I didn't let him touch me for his safety, cause my damn family threatened to kill him if I ever let him touch me." Stacey replied, her voice getting sadder. She never had a chance to make love with her husband, all because her family didn't approve of him. "I loved that guy, and I still love him… I jus
"Go and call your boss…. Tell him Mrs. Gwendolyn Is here?" Gwendolyn smugly instructed one of the security guards, as she shot a death glare at him.Shaking his head in denial, the security guard pointed her and Lawrence to the BMW they just came with. "Ma'am, sir, for the last time, turn around and leave… if you don't have an invitation card or an appointment you can't meet Mr Stark!" The security guard said, trying to sound polite. But this lady has been refusing to leave for 20 minutes, and that was irritating the security guards. Doesn't she have self respect?'So now he is too good for us.' Gwendolyn couldn't believe it. Now they needed an invitation card to meet that guy?... But she couldn't say that out loud, all she could do was scoff. "Young Man, why don't you call your boss here huh?" Gwendolyn demanded for the hundredth time.The security guard just sighed. Going home without seeing Arthur was a no no. So Lawrence stepped forward. "Listen, I don't know who you guys think
The meeting that Arthur's grandfather told him to go to, was for the richest people in the country. And the purpose of the gathering was for business people to connect with each other."I could have driven on my own." Arthur complained, seating in a limousine opposite Dawn, while Loraine sat next to him.Dawn chuckled lightly."Arthur you're the head of the biggest consortium, and you're going to present your business… so it's only right that you arrive this way and not in some cheap car." Dawn said sternly.Arriving at the luxurious hotel,the limousine came to a stop. And Arthur and the two girls alighted from the car, gathering the attention of attendees, journalists and reporters at the meeting.There was a red carpet spread out. As Arthur and the girls walked on it, the journalists took pictures of him and the beauties behind him. Which Arthur didn't like, for some reason he hated it when people stare at him."Who is he?" Some of the women started asking each other. They had never
Elijah Hayes, was invited to the meeting since his family was the first ranked family in Riverwalk. His family had a networth of billions and one of the biggest business groups in the country, so it was obvious that he would get invited to such important functions.What Elijah didn't expect was to see Stacey at the gathering. "Well, wouldn't you know?" Elijah mumbled, nudging his friends shoulder. Staring at Stacey as she walked towards Arthur."What?" Elijah's friend turned to look the way Elijah was pointing and he gasped in shock. "Whoa, Eli that's the woman who broke your heart!" Elijah's friend gasped."Uh huh… and she's here with that useless lover of her's." Elijah muttered, his eyes bloodshot. He always suspected Stacey ran away with Arthur, and now seeing them in the same place only confirmed it. And that made his blood boil."I say, you teach her a lesson." Elijah's friend urged taking a sip of his wine. Knowing Elijah will listen to him. An evil smile formed on the corner
Arthur was stunned for a second, his mouth hanging slightly open. "Oh, you dated him?" Arthur asked, a hint of disbelief in his eyes. He never would have thought that a woman like Dawn would date an asshole like Elijah.Dawn shot him a cold glare. "I don't want to talk about it." She repeated, sounding even more stern this time. Elijah was a topic she never wanted to talk about. She just wanted to leave that chapter of her life closed."Okay… well how long did you two date?" Arthur insisted. He was so curious at the moment.Dawn emptied the whole glass in one go and then she looked at Arthur, smiling faintly. "Are you jealous Mr Stark?"Arthur was caught off guard by her question."What?""No he is not jealous!" Came Loraine, with two glasses of wine in her hands. She tried to hand Arthur the other one, but he already had one so he just tilted his head in denial."I'll take it." Said dawn as she took the glass from Loraine's hand, and again she drunk it on one go. Showing just how frus
