Bruce

My personal doctor, Dr. Richard Brooks, was one of the top three most famous doctors in London. His specialty was internal medicine but with additional training in cardiology, emergency medicine and longevity medicine.

He was the one I was going to meet today.

The drive to his office was long and boring. I could feel Natasha judging me silently and somehow, I wanted to prove her wrong.

I hoped it wasn’t Alzheimer though. That one had no cure.

Dr. Richard took us in excitedly and he inform

  • The CEO's Contract Bride: Marriage On Paper   Former Enemies Align

    Michael I found my way to the bar, staggering. I was already drunk before I went to the bar, not of alcohol but of rage.I couldn’t wrap my head around the fact that Baldwin was sleeping with my girlfriend out of all the girls he could get.I ordered drink after drink, hoping I would get drunk enough to relieve my anger by taking it out on some other drunk fellow. However, the alcohol wasn’t getting me drunk.“Give me something stronger,” I told the barman.“You just had the strongest thing we have,” he replied curtly.“I want something that would knock me out!” I shouted angrily. The barman took a step back at first and then he moved closer,“I could mix a few drinks. They will be powerful but I don’t know if they will knock you out.”Right then, I hesitated. It was now obvious that this situation wouldn’t be taken care of by alcohol. I had to make a move, I had to take my revenge.“No, no more drinks,” I told the bartender. I brought out my phone and called Natasha’s number instant

    Baldwin I was in the middle of sex with Georgina when I heard footsteps. Instantly, I got off her, wore my underwear and went to check it out.I was shocked to find out it was Michael and I pushed him far from the door. I had to make sure he didn't find out I was with his girlfriend.“What the hell are you doing?” I exclaimed anxiously. Then I lowered my tone, “I believe I asked not to be disturbed but if you were going to come anyway, you should have told me.”“I… I…” Michael stammered. “Who are you with, boss?”Did he know his girlfriend was with me? That couldn’t be true as I had made sure no one would find out.“Some random girl,” I replied casually. “I met her at a bar and decided to spend a weekend with her. She is quite hot, you know. I don’t think I have to tell you all these though.”“Can I see her?” he asked. “No, you can’t,” I replied firmly. “Why would you want to see her? She is just one of my whores.”“Ah, right,” Michael muttered. “I should never have asked.”“Yeah,” I

    Michael I walked back and forth uneasily, waiting for updates. I was still at Springcity hotel but the other staff members had left.I tried to convince myself that nothing would go wrong but my heart was heavy for some reason.I tried calling my girlfriend, Georgina, but her phone was switched off. I remembered she had warned me not to contact her for the weekend due to her work.I sighed the moment I remembered it. It was among the things weighing heavily on my chest.The other thing was that I knew Cole wouldn’t be able to do anything alone but that could change if he joined hands with someone powerful who had a grudge against us.There was only one person who fitted that description; Bruce Stamford. If I were in Bruce’s shoes, I would try to make the best of this situation.Somehow, I had to find out what he was thinking. At that moment, I remembered Kenzie. How could I have forgotten her in the first place?I called her and she picked up instantly. One could think she had been e

    BruceKelvin appeared at the mansion that morning, bearing news of Mac Group’s scandal. Instantly, I called a small meeting with him, Natasha, and Kenzie.We had to start with Kenzie joining us on video call. It was a weekend and it would be a hassle for her to come to the mansion personally.“Bluepill pharmaceuticals has been on the verge of bankruptcy after a huge scandal. Their new drug had a high amount of narcotics in it and when this was discovered, the CEO was imprisoned and his nineteen year old son took over the dying company,” Kelvin explained calmly.“According to the rumors, a few companies made efforts to buy Bluepill but the young CEO, Cole Kim, refused to sell. Apparently, Mac Group made a proposal as well. The result is told differently by both sides.”“The different sides being Mac Group and Cole Kim?” Natasha asked curiously.“Exactly!” Kelvin affirmed. “According to Mac Group, they sealed the deal cleanly. However, late in the evening yesterday, Cole claimed the dea

    Michael I was hearing my ringing tone in my subconscious but lazily, I remained in bed.By the time I opened my eyes, I found ten missed calls already. All were from work with four of them from Jason.I sighed, annoyed that I couldn’t even sleep as long as I wanted to on a Saturday. I stood up and even before I washed my face, I called Jason.“Why haven’t you been picking your calls?” he asked angrily. “If the boss had left you in charge of making decisions, you should pick your fucking calls!”“What’s the situation?” I asked, now on my way to the bathroom.“It is with our acquisition of Bluepill pharmaceuticals. It appears you did a bad job,” Jason told me maliciously.“Give me more details. What exactly went wrong?” I asked instantly. By now, I was standing at one point.“The CEO or shall I say the former CEO is throwing a tantrum,” Jason responded. “He went to the police and claimed he was threatened to sell the company.”“Does he have evidence?” I asked calmly.“No, he doesn’t,”

    Michael I walked to the meeting room confidently the next day.By the time I got there, Albert and Jason were already seated with Baldwin. Rather than take my seat rashly, I stood.“I am here due to your summon, boss,” I said in a cool manner.“Right, you’re welcome,” he replied naturally.“According to Albert, you played a huge role in buying Bluepill pharmaceuticals. Is that so?”“All I did was my job, sir,” I replied curtly.“You are being humble unnecessarily. Since you did well, I should reward you properly. I will be generous and grant you a wish, tell me what you want,” Baldwin told me carefully.“Ah, you can’t wish for a vacation.”I smiled, “I have decided not to take a vacation. I will stay with you until the end, boss.”“That’s more like it!” Baldwin affirmed excitedly. “How about your wish?”“I don’t need anything for now, sir,” I answered. “But I would be pleased if you could promote senior manager Albert. He did very well and he deserves it.”“His promotion should be di
