A fight would happen soon and it was Liam against almost thirty armed men. But with the guns in their hands, Liam wondered if there would be a fight at all or if they would fire at him before an actual fight would break out."Deal with this idiot," Chorro ordered and the men yelled in response but before anything could happen, Liam spoke up,"You do realize that killing me means killing your children, right? Then your legacy would become useless if you have no son to inherit them, you would age and die and leave everything you ever had on this earth for strangers to take. Do you want strangers to reap what you sow when you are gone? Keep me alive and I'll give you the antidote to save your children as long as you meet my demand," Liam said, hoping Chorro would reconsider his decision."Do you also realize that I can as well find the antidote somewhere else? I'm sure there are doctors who can make them for me at a cheaper rate," Chorro responded, not giving up."And do you also realize

The moment Liam stepped into the room alongside the man who led him into the building, he noticed the armed men that were scattered around the room, it was a spacious room. A room large enough to contain two hundred people, who knew what the old man was up to.His gaze met Chorro's glare but Liam smiled back at the angry old man instead, disregarding his anger. Liam stepped forward and took the empty seat opposite Chorro, there was a huge table in between them. He leaned forward with his arms resting on the table's surface, he stared at Chorro for a few seconds before looking around the place with a knowing smile on his lips."I thought this was supposed to be a one-on-one conversation between us, who are these men?" Liam asked, referring to the armed men whom he could tell were obviously Chorro's bodyguards."That's not important, let's go straight to the point. I'm a very busy man and time is not on my side," Chorro grunted, he couldn't believe an idiot like Liam could use his own p

The call between Liam and Chorro ended after Chorro agreed to meet up with Liam. Liam was excited because this meant he should be prepared to hit the jackpot with Chorro. Of course, he knew it wouldn't be easy because that old man was a stubborn conniving goat and would try to pull off some tricks.Checking the time, it was just ten AM in the morning, he had about two hours before he would leave to meet Chorro. Getting up from the chair, Liam left the room to search for Alexander, he would be informing Alexander about the newest update.Reaching Alexander's office, they both had a long conversation and talked about Liam's plan. It was a risky one and Alexander suggested Liam go with some of his best men and Liam agreed to it. They couldn't afford to make any mistakes or fall for any of Chorro's tricks.At this point, it was either you kill or let yourself be killed and Liam was definitely ready to kill.Chorro had had the balls to threaten him and Alexander's company, it was best to g

The following morning, it was a Sunday morning, Liam woke up on his bed with Gianna next to him. They both had a steamy night last night and for some odd reason, he felt energetic even when yesterday had been a busy day which was a good thing for him.He quickly got out of bed and took his shower, after which he walked to the kitchen and made a quick breakfast of bacon sandwich toast, and coffee. He ate it up like a hungry dog and left the kitchen.Making his way back to his bedroom, Liam crosses paths with Nelson in the hallway. He gave him a side stare and just as Nelson could walk past him, Liam quickly held him back, stopping him from moving any further."What are you doing?" Nelson demanded with a deep frown, he glared at Liam but Liam wasn't fazed at all."I thought I should be a little troublesome this morning, why not?" Liam asked with a subtle smile as he looked down at Nelson who was shorter than him.Feeling agitated by Liam, Nelson let out a slow sigh, he was trying to cal

Apart from the servants and workers of the house, there were only five people in the mansion. Which were Liam, Alexander, Nelson, Kalel and Gianna. Amongst these people listed, everyone knew of their mission tonight except one person, Nelson.Chances are, Nelson sneaked in on their conversation and heard what Liam and Alexander discussed and while trying to leave the room, he accidentally pushed the flower vase and it fell and broke."Nelson was here," Liam stated with a shrug, he then placed his hands into his pocket and looked down at Alexander, and said, "Why did he run away though? We have nothing to hide from him and we equally have nothing to share with him," Liam said with a chuckle."So how is it going with the board of directors?" Alexander asked, changing the topic as he was equally curious to know.Maybe if Nelson got busy with work, he wouldn't find the time to act out of place at every chance he got, Alexander thought as he waited for Liam's response."Stubborn, they've r

The moment Liam stepped into his bedroom, the exhaustion from tonight's event finally came striking him hard and throwing him into the bed, with a tired sigh, he landed heavily on his soft bed as he hummed in satisfaction. The night had been a long night and Liam felt great that everything they had planned was executed successfully even though it had been a rough ride. There were times during the fight when as he threw punches and kicks he would wonder to himself how he even got to that point and why he was there to begin with. But then, he also had to remind himself that it all started with Chorro himself and whatever that old wag was going through, he deserved. Not only did he throw threats at Liam when he barely even started work as the new CEO, but he had planned to attack both the company, himself, and Alexander and take what wasn't his. Thankfully, he would never get to succeed because Liam was way stronger than anything Chorro would ever. After a short silence in his bed

The grand hall glittered under golden chandeliers as soft classical music floated through the air, the kind of atmosphere meant only for people who never had to worry about money a day in their lives. Belle held Richard’s arm as they walked in together, her heels clicking confidently against the polished floor while waiters moved around with trays of wine. She loved places like this, places that reminded her she had escaped the embarrassment called her past, and tonight she felt particularly pleased seeing familiar wealthy faces greeting Richard with respect.“You see?” she whispered with a faint smile, leaning slightly toward him. “This is the life people like us are meant for. Not struggling with useless people who drag you down.”Richard smirked, accepting a glass from a passing waiter. “Some people are simply born to be stepped on. That’s reality.”Belle chuckled softly. “Imagine if that loser could see us now.”“Ryu?” Richard scoffed without even thinking about it. “He’s probably

Ryu stepped out of the car and stared at the tall glass building in front of him, his hands tucked inside his pockets as if that would somehow calm the uneasiness crawling beneath his skin. Mr. John stood beside him, already walking ahead like a man who had done this a thousand times, while Ryu lagged behind, silently wishing Drew had been the one sent with him instead. Ever since the Chairman told him he would be inspecting a branch alone, his chest had not stopped feeling tight. This was not a classroom test anymore.Inside the building, the receptionist barely spared him a glance. Her eyes moved past him and rested respectfully on Mr. John instead, and Ryu could already feel how today would go. A few staff members whispered among themselves as they walked by, their eyes lingering on him a second longer than necessary. He heard it clearly; Chairman’s pet. The words were not even said quietly enough, almost like they wanted him to hear it.They made him wait.Ten minutes turned to th

Ryu stepped out of the conference room with Drew walking a few steps behind him. The hallway suddenly felt quieter than before, almost unreal after the intense atmosphere he had just endured. He stopped midway and placed his hand against the wall, letting out a long breath.“I really thought my soul left my body back there,” Ryu muttered.Drew folded his arms. “But it didn’t.”“I was shaking.”“I noticed.”“And you let me walk in there alone anyway?”Drew raised a brow. “Would you have preferred I held your hand?”Ryu shot him a look. “Don’t push your luck, old man.”For the first time since the meeting, Drew allowed a faint smile. “You did well.”Ryu blinked, slightly stunned. “That’s it? Just well? I nearly collapsed!”“You spoke. You answered. You didn’t run away. That alone was the goal today.”Ryu leaned back against the wall, staring at the ceiling. “They were looking at me like I was trash.”“They still are,” Drew replied calmly.Ryu’s head snapped toward him. “Encouraging as a

The heavy door closed behind him with a soft but terrifying click that echoed louder in his ears than it actually was, and at that moment Ryu realized he was truly alone inside the battlefield Drew had prepared him for. The conference room was large, far larger than it had seemed from outside, with a long polished table stretching across the room and a massive screen mounted on the wall. Around the table sat men and women old enough to be his parents, some even his grandparents, all dressed sharply and radiating authority that suffocated the air. Their eyes followed his every movement as if measuring his worth in seconds, and he could almost hear their thoughts screaming the same thing; Who is this boy? Ryu swallowed, his throat suddenly dry, his palms damp, but remembering Drew’s words, he forced his feet to move forward instead of retreating. Each step felt unnatural, like walking on unfamiliar ground, yet he continued until he reached the empty seat at the head of the table. The

"Reality? I never chose this, I didn't even ask to be here so what are you talking about?" Ryu said, glaring at the older man. Hearing this from Ryu, Drew sighed as he had not expected for things to go this way. "Not everybody is privileged enough to choose their reality. People just find themselves in crazy situations and can do nothing about it. Some get lucky with a better life and some the total opposite. The fun thing about life is, no matter how crazy life gets, you can always get to shape your reality to how you want it. When life hands you a lemon, you turn it to lemonade or whatever it is they say." He explained, hoping for the young man to understand. "Look at you now, being scared and towering away from the reality given to you..." "I'm not scared," Ryu interrupted with an offended frown but Drew ignored him. "But the truth is, you can always change it if you want. The ability to do so is right in the palm of your hands, it's like a power we humans yield. And the only w

Three months flew by with Ryu getting the mentorship he needed from Drew. He was taught everything he needed to know about business and about the company in general. He was given practical tests and theory exams and he passed them to both his and Drew's surprise. One month into the mentorship, Drew could already see Ryu was taking it seriously. One could tell the young man was eager to learn. The way he asked questions out of his own curiosity and the way he answered the questions asked to him, Drew knew he had buckled up. He had a good brain too, he could easily grab onto things, even the ones that seemed like they weren't there and the ones Drew had purposely made to appear so. Every single day that came, it became as if Ryu woke up with a new willpower to learn and this was impressive to Drew. During the three months of mentorship, some of Ryu's practical tests had involved him having to spend his day in the company with the Chairman. He attended meetings with the Chairman and

Making sure not to wake up Blair, he stood up from the bed completely naked, a frustrated sigh escaped his mouth as he took in the sight of the bedroom and the state he was in.The room was littered with their clothes all around. With a swift movement, Xavier put on his clothes and would leave the room to behave like nothing ever happened.After making sure he looked normal and nothing was out of place, he walked towards the door and just when he was about to open it, the door was forcefully pushed from outside and it almost slammed his face.Xavier stood there like a statue, his eyes wide from shock. His lips moved but no words came out of his mouth.Standing outside the door was Preston, Mrs Edna and three other men and from the look on their faces, Xavier knew they must have found out what happened. Though he wondered how now wasn't the time to worry about how they found out.Preston was the first to step in and Mrs Edna followed right behind him.The moment Preston saw who lay on

Xavier in his slightly tipsy state of mind followed the strange man who had Blair in his grasp, he tried as much as he could to meet up but the strange man was still faster.After a while, Xavier saw the man enter a room and his senses were heightened. With a deep frown on his eyebrows, he wondered what the man was up to.Were his intentions pure? Or does he plan to do something bad to Blair?Though Xavier knew he was just a driver and not a guard but Blair was handed over to him, if anything bad happened to her, he would be held accountable for it.Due to how far they've gone, the music from the club had died down and as Xavier looked to his side, passing by many arrays of doors, he wondered if this place was attached to the bar.He soon reached the door he had seen the man enter with Blair in his arms, the door was slightly open. Though it was dim and barely lit, Xavier could see inside the room was pitch dark.And without wasting further time, he pushed the door open and walked in.

By the time Xavier drove to the club Blair had directed him to, dusk was already fast approaching and soon night would fall.Though his body and mind were exhausted, he needed to get rid of the exhaustion and stay active for the whole time the ladies would stay clubbing.He found a good spot in the parking lot and parked the car. Without saying a word, he patiently waited for the ladies to step down and he would have the car to himself and would use the opportunity to take a quick nap.Xavier looked at Blair through the rearview mirror and could see the happy smile on her face as she tilted her head to the side to look at the club's entrance through the car's window.She looked super excited as if she had not been to the club for ages. Like a child who had finally gotten the candy, he had so much wanted.Blair could hear the booming sound of music coming from the club and happiness bubbled inside her and it could explode at any time, she just couldn't wait.She turned towards her frien

A personal driver? Was this good news or bad news? Xavier wondered to himself while trying to digest this piece of information.Maybe this was good news after all. Being a driver was way better than being a lowly male servant.At least he wouldn't have to clean or serve. Neither would he get to face this annoying family all the time. But it seems someone was against this."What is the meaning of this? What do you mean by personal driver? Do you realize you are giving him a promotion when he hasn't even started working? For someone like him to be promoted to the position of a personal driver, he has to work for it. Don't be ridiculous." Preston ranted as he pointed out, it was clear he was against this sudden promotion, as he'd deemed it."You talk too much and I wasn't asking for your opinion neither do I need your permission. And this is not your father's company where you can control almost everything." Blair fired, not backing down as she stared at Preston's bloodshot with a rather

It took Xavier almost a week to recover from all the injuries he had sustained from the dog bites and to his surprise, the Biller family were sending doctors to him every once in a while to check up on him. Xavier refused to see any kind intentions behind that.To him, they were just treating his dog bites just so he would be healthy enough to work for them. There was no way the Biller family could be so kind to just treat him, there's got to be a reason and Xavier was sure it was for their own personal benefit and nothing else.And of course, Blair wouldn't stop pestering him to the extent where he became uncomfortable around her. Through out his days of recovering, she would constantly visit, behaving weird and asking him questions that made him almost freak out. She was another bunch of trouble to him and he wanted to avoid her at all cost.Today was Friday, the last day of the week days before the weekend and today was also the very first day of Xavier working for the Billers and

No amount of words could explain how Xavier felt as he stepped out of that hell of a room he had thought was heaven. But one thing's for sure, what he was currently feeling was nothing near pleasant or a good feeling.He felt the most horrible way ever and the only thing he wanted to do was just disappear from this world and never to be seen, that way, his sufferings would end.Yes, that's right, he would disappear from this cruel world and never to be seen again. Living this life was not worth it.He walked around the huge mansion looking for the exit and not being aware of how he was catching so much attention.With anger, rage, pain, regret and so many other emotions blurring half his eye sight, he finally found the exit out of this shitty hell hole and he left the house through the front door.Now all that was left was to finally leave the premises and then look for what proper way to die and leave this world.Xavier was walking, not knowing where he was now but he knew he was hea
