“You are fired, go inside and park everything that belongs to you.” Those words sounded heavy in Clinton’s ear. He couldn’t believe he got sacked. But where was he when the incident was happening?Earlier before Benjamin arrived at the store, Clinton had left to meet up with one of his side chicks in a hotel, leaving the office. Spending not less than two hours only to return to witness an unexpected incident.Could he have prevented the incident if he was around? Could he have fallen just like Juliet and Hamza?Clinton tried to utter a word but his voice hung in his throat. His hands clasped together as he pleaded for a second chance.After Angelo was through dealing with his staff he ran back. His breathing was heavy like he was chased by a bear. “Young master, I have chased all the bad eggs. I apologize for what happened. You can have anything you want, it’s on the house.”The shoppers gaped in shock. Did he just say that? Some wished it was them; they would have rushed to pick

Both Juliet and Hamza were taken aback in shock when they saw their manager. They wondered if the men came because of Benjamin or if it was just some coincidence.The shoppers took out their phones to record the scene of how, the Popular Angelo Garcia was dragged into his store. They couldn’t believe that a man like him would be dragged into his own store.Juliet quickly composed herself, same with Hamza. “Welcome, boss; we had no idea you would be coming to the store today.”Benjamin wasn’t comfortable with the camera lights flashing towards him. James Sinclair grasped, and immediately, everyone with recording devices was sent out of the store.Benjamin, seeing that there was no one recording, he sighed in relief.“Young master, Here is the owner of the store. Angelo Gracia.”Mr. Angelo felt his legs wobbling slightly, he knelt down. He was scared of James Sinclair and knew what the man was capable of doing.“Please. Forgive me, Young master.” He uttered with a shaking and low tone.

That morning As Benjamin left his house casually dressed, he made his way to a store downtown to get a gift for Ariana. He found some good items online but the delivery time discouraged him from making a purchase. He thought about getting something more presentable.He walked into Zeal Jewelry store, one of the biggest and most popular jewellery stores in Morristown.They had different jewellery stored for interest buyers, from gold, platinum, diamonds and all accessories that anyone would dream of.When he got to the store, the salesperson, named Juliet, welcomed him. However, there was something different between Benjamin and the other customers. Benjamin looked around the store until he found a gold necklace locked in a glass cabinet.It was elegant and would be the perfect fit for Arianna. He walked towards the glass taking a peered at the price tag. Two million dollars. He shook his head. The price was just a change to him, but the sales personnel misinterpreted his gesture an

Nathan felt his heart sink deeply into his stomach; Nora couldn’t understand the tension that was coursing through his veins. He turned his head, only to find an officer calling Nora to get her phone which she left on the counter.Nora grabbed her phone and sauntered towards the entrance to join Nathan. They both got into the car and without waiting, Nathan revved the car and zoomed off. When they got to Nora’s apartment, Mrs Margaret had a worrisome outlook the moment she set her gaze on Nathan. “What happened? Did you get into a fight with anyone at the station?” She asked with her voice etched in worry and concern.“No, I slipped when walking into the chief’s office.” He hurriedly spoke.Nora furrowed her brow; she wasn’t there but from the look of things. The shape looked like a slap; the side of his cheeks was red, and a mark was showing.Mrs. Margret tossed her gaze toward Nora, who gave her a nod. “We met Benjamin at the station; Nathan, being a gentleman, thought about help

Chief Lambert’s face was covered in sweat, “How is Benjamin related To James Sinclair? What have I gotten myself into.” He thought.“Mr. James, I will let him go immediately. Please, don’t report me to anyone. Just give me a few minutes, and you will get a report of his release; if you want, I can drive him personally to wherever you want.”“Just let him go, and make sure he doesn’t have a bruise on his skin or else you would be a dead man before morning.”Just as the call ended, Chief Lambert paced into his office. His hands trembled in fear and panic. Mr. Davis and Snake watched him as he hurriedly walked past them; they could tell something was wrong. “What’s happening?” Mr. Davis asked.“I am letting him go,” he hurriedly replied.Mr. Davis frowned as he narrowed his gaze at Chief Lambert. “What do you mean by you are letting him go? Do you have a death wish? Have you forgotten how much we paid you for this?”“I would return the money with interest; I don’t want to lose my job.”

Benjamin kept mute, as he moved his gaze away. “Can I make a phone call?” Benjamin asked the officer behind the desk.“No, you can’t,” he replied without moving his gaze away from his laptop screen.Benjamin clenched his fist, and his jaw tightened.“You should learn to hide your pride, I can help you out of here. If only you would bow to me.” Nathan uttered as he beamed.Nora scoffed, “Let’s go; he is not ready to utter a word. He should pay for whatever crime he has committed.”Benjamin felt like strangling the people before him. They were pissing him off with their irritating comments. Seeing that Benjamin wasn’t responding, Nathan, who wanted to show off, approached the police officer. “Who is in charge of his case?” he asked.The officer raised his head to look at Nathan. “The chief, you can find him in his office.” Without waiting, he walked towards the chief’s office. On getting there he knocked twice before pushing the door open. Nathan froze, he found Mr. Davis and Snake si
