Mr Devine was impressed with Peter's plan, why didn't he thought of it, he has been busy trying to figure out what he was going to do when he see his daughter. Dialing the head of the cyber security, Peter took the phone and put it on loud speaker, so that Mr Devine could hear too. Immediately Philip who was the head manager picked the phone and said respectfully, "Good day Mr Peter, how may I help". Although Peter was just a personal secretary in the company, he was highly respected throughout the company because he was the right hand man of Mr Devine, so treating him with respect was the same as treating Mr Devine.

I inquired further and they kept on looking at me. Peter, the head of operations, recovered first, " Please can we ask for more time to make sure that things are in order? We'll have our reports on your desk first thing tomorrow, right?" He asked his colleagues. They nodded like puppets. Maybe I needed to do a swift cleaning and leave people who could actually handle things. That way, fresh graduates have a better chance of making it in life. " Your request is granted. This is a warning." I paused. " Excellence or nothing." I said.

“She didn't leave, Ethan. You made her leave, there is a big difference. And if you are still not able to realize this difference and understand the value of someone whom you have to force to leave you, and are still comparing them to someone who willingly left yo… then I don't know how you are the most successful businessman of the country–” Peter's voice is uncharacteristically sharp, and I have to interrupt him. “What do you mean? I am not following you here.” “That's your problem, you don't follow the people who genuinely love and care for you, instead, you follow the people who have already betrayed you in the past and I can bet they will betray you in future too, if they get the chance

Drake advised. “Yeah about that. That will be way too difficult” Michael confessed. “Why do you say that? Is he not in love with her anymore?”. “I don't know Drake, but Peter has been mostly unpredictable these days. His arrogance and pride had even increased after recalling a few of his memory. Worst of all is that he remembers the exact date that position was given to him in the office”. “Forgive me, but I must say that your father did an idiotic thing for giving his next successor to be your son and not you. You are hardworking, humble and a charming businessman too”

For what purpose did he do that? There had to be something else that was going on. As long as the matter was not made clear, Thomas would not let his guard down. To no surprise, after everyone had their laugh, Peter made his move. Peter said enthusiastically, “Perhaps not a single person will believe in what I said and think that I am just spouting nonsense. Or maybe you guys think I am unreliable and was just running my mouth however I please, right? “That is okay. It is fine if you guys chose to not believe in me. But there is someone that you guys will definitely believe in.

Matthew said, “It's chocolate, isn't it? Sarah smile Matthew said, “Wait here; I'll be right back." Sarah said, "Okay," ********************************* Nicholas gets a call. Nicholas said, “What happened?" Peter said, "Sir, I am resigning from my job; I have to go to my hometown, sorry." Nicholas said, “What nonsense, Peter? How will I maintain everything without an assistant?" Peter said, “Sir, I have already shortlisted some suitable people; their bio-data is on your table, and you have to interview them tomorrow." Nicholas said, “But no one will be better than you."

"The protocol is designed to ensure your physical continuity while your brother is in out of the city. Your hyper-independent nature makes you an active liability to your own safety. If that requires me to tolerate your chaotic behaviour under my roof, I will do so. But do not mistake my compliance for flexibility." "Compliance?" I let out a dry, disbelieving laugh. "You don't comply with anything, Peter. You manage. You transact. I saw you on the phone earlier with your security divisions—you talk to people like they're inventory. You don't have a single emotional bone in your entire body, do you? Everything is just a number, a contract, or a metric to you." "Metrics provide stability," Pet

So let us discuss Peter. Are his crimes completely random? Are they ever deserved? Can they be warded off by good deeds and kindness and talismans and belief? Peter did not think so. Although his targets were women he didn’t know personally, there was always something about them that caught his eye. Perhaps she had particularly sparkly earrings that day, or she reminded him of somebody he knew when he was young. One young woman was listening to Mika, and he, too, listened to Mika occasionally, when he was in a particularly foppish mood, and that was enough to tie them together. And as far as he knew, nothing could ward him off, except for maybe a large dog or aggressive boyfriend, or switch

Peter noticed my pause and explained, "I overlooked your feelings before. Although our marriage is based on the business considerations of both families, it doesn't mean that I, Peter Rufus, am someone who casually betrays his own life for the sake of profit. Since I chose you to be my wife, I will take responsibility for you. What you're seeing now..." Peter glanced at the profiles in my hands and continued, "...these are profiles of my previous girlfriends. I recorded the age, family, profession, and breakup date of each one.

"Oh. No. That's not necessary, sir." "Don't sir me! You call me Victor and I will reciprocate by calling you Peter.
