Acquisition

Michael I hurried to the meeting hall after being told that Baldwin was there already. At the door, I met the Senior Manager, Albert, and we entered together.Inside the hall was Baldwin and Jason waiting for us. I bowed curtly before I took my seat.“Will you do the briefing, please?” Baldwin turned to Jason. The latter took the podium and spoke to us clearly.“Over the past few months, we have been trying to expand our business to the medical line. It is a well known fact that medicines and vaccines are one of the products that give great profit and a team was put together to see how we can enter the business line. This team was headed by Senior Manager Albert who is here today,” Jason said.Albert stood up and bowed to Baldwin slightly with a smile on his face.“I guess I should take over the briefing here,” Albert muttered. He took Jason’s spot at the podium and continued.“My team and I did six months of research and realized that setting up a company from scratch will be a hard

Acquisition II

Michael I walked back to the meeting room and Albert was there, making a call. I had to wait until his call ended.“I have been ordered to work with you. What’s the next step?” I asked curtly. Albert stared at me,“I could do this without your help. How about you stay out of it? I will handle it properly.” I scoffed,“Why would I do that? I must obey Baldwin’s order.”“Oh, is that so?” Albert muttered. “I just thought it would be better if I worked with my team than with you. I have a feeling you will object to a lot of things and that will create a mess. My team and I have been working in sync until now, I don’t want to ruin that.”I folded my arms, “You don’t have a choice here, Albert. Like I asked before, what is the next step?” He sighed,“My team is preparing a proposal as we speak. Once it is prepared, I will go to Bluepill’s headquarters myself and submit it to the CEO. I already asked to have lunch with him.”“Alright, we will go together,” I replied and then turned to leave

Making Friends, Making Enemies

Michael “It seems you will be abandoned soon, just like me,” I said as I laughed hysterically. I could see despair in his face.“I will convince him somehow,” he muttered, picking up his briefcase. Right as he turned to leave, I stood up and blocked his path.“With your lousy methods, you will never be able to convince him. That kid might be only nineteen but he is very firm and disciplined. People like him never change their mind when they make it.One more thing, his decision is tied to his father. I’m sure he believes that his duty is to protect the company until his father gets out of prison,” I said aptly. Albert dropped his briefcase,“Do you have a plan?” I smiled,“If I do have a plan, is there any reason I have to share it with you?”Albert chuckled, “I understand you wish to get me desperate but don’t you think both of us are in this mess together? If we fail, we will be doomed together.Right, I might end up not getting the promotion I have been wanting but you? You’ll los

People Of Like Minds

Michael “Or… Shall I just cut off the fingers?” I asked, a smirk on my face.I could see fright creeping into Cole’s face. No matter how daring he was, he still had a limit.“I have to protect this… this place for my… my…” Cole was stammering now.“Grab him, get the hammer,” I ordered, betraying no emotion.Instantly, two of the men grabbed Cole and another one brought me a hammer. Cole started to cry for help as they held his hand in place. I bent, ready to destroy one finger at a time.“I will sign it!” he shouted, breathing heavily.“Then do that quickly,” I muttered, standing now. Albert gave Cole a pen and the latter signed the documents instantly. A triumphant smile appeared on my face now,“You did well, boy. If you keep this up, you might end up being successful in the future. I know you are in college right now, what course are you studying?”“Theatre arts,” he answered weakly. I scoffed,“But you are managing a business right now, aren’t you? Why would you study theatre art

Decisions

Natasha As I was too tired, Kelvin volunteered to drive me home.On the way, both of us didn’t talk but it was obvious we both had Kenzie in our hearts. She wanted me to use her but it was something I couldn’t bring myself to do.“We are here,” Kelvin announced.“Thank you,” I told him with a smile. “How about you come in for a drink? I’m sure Bruce is home as well.”“I appreciate the gesture but I need to be with err… Kenzie tonight. She must be waiting for me already,” he muttered. I nodded,“That’s fine. You should go to her.” Both of us parted there at the garage.I went into the main building while he left. As I entered, I met Bruce in the living room. He stood up as I came in and then he held me.“You had a long day, didn’t you?” he asked.“Of course, my days are always long. How was yours?” I asked in reply.“It was just… not bad,” he muttered. “Kelvin told me about it. It must have been shocking for you.”“Did you know about it too?” I asked anxiously.“No, not until today,”

Hunting Dogs

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

Weekend Chaos

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,”

Capitalisation

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

Last Straw

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

The Powerful Takes All

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
