“I tried getting tickets for the concert last night, but they were all sold out! Can you believe that? This is just so unfair!” yelled Mina almost hysterically. At that moment, Nathaniel entered the office. Unlike Mina, however, he seemed to be in quite a good mood. “Mr. Chandler, you were trying to get some tickets too, right? How did that go? Were you able to get your hands on any?” asked several employees as they surrounded him. “Hehe... Luck truly was on my side this time! Though they’re just final row seats, I managed to secure two tickets!” replied Nathaniel with a smug smile on his face. “Holy! You actually managed to get two! That’s amazing, Mr. Chandler!” exclaimed the girls there with envy in their voices. As they continued talking to him, some of the girls tried subtly making physical contact with him. Maybe by doing so, they could have a chance of being invited instead! “Nate, since you have two tickets, do you mind selling one to me? I really want to go!” said Mi

“I’m so sorry, Gerald! Please forgive me!” said Mina while bowing toward Gerald as though she was deeply regretting her past actions. Gerald was surprised, to say the least, at her sudden change of attitude. He wasn’t alone either, as the entire department was staring at her in shock as well. “Please, Gerald! I really want a ticket… Could you sell one to me?” said Mina in a soft tone as she stared into Gerald’s eyes. She was Kai’s hardcore fan, so she was willing to give anything just to be able to see him perform live. Gerald was rightfully hesitant since he was, after all, mad at her before this. Normally, he would choose to ignore her at all costs. However, she now seemed to be truly sorry for her past actions, and seeing that softened Gerald’s heart. So be it, he would grant her, her wish. “Just take one. I have plenty anyway!” replied Gerald as he handed her a ticket. Mina’s eyes glimmered with immense gratitude and she bowed again toward him as she took the ticket from his

“What’s wrong, Stuart?” asked Ava, looking visibly worried. “It’s ruined!” said Stuart, his face pale as a sheet. He then ran down the stairs immediately and Ava followed close behind. She waited for him to be done with his phone call before slowly approaching him. “Stuart…? What’s wrong? Please don’t scare me!” asked Ava, repeating her question. She was getting increasingly worried with every passing second. Stuart wasn’t a man who only had his looks. He had properties within Mayberry and his parents were fairly successful people as well. Essentially, he had the whole package. He just seemed to naturally outshine all of Ava’s other colleagues in the company, which was one of the reasons why she liked him so much in the first place. Ava had always dreamed of marrying Stuart in Mayberry one day. If she was lucky, she’d love to be able to work there as well. Due to her father being the principal of her high school, she had been both prideful and cynical from a young age. All her

After grabbing on to his arm, she began looking at Gerald flirtatiously. Though her eyes were indeed, very attractive, Gerald was still shocked. “Ava, are you alright?” “No… No, I’m not. Could you please accompany me?” she asked as she pulled him deeper into her house. Eventually, Gerald ended up being pushed onto her bed. She then began taking her dress off seductively. Gerald could only gulp. Ava was really beautiful, after all. She had fair skin and a great figure. As she pressed her body against his, Gerald felt heat rushing through his body. His throat felt dry as Ava continued undressing. Her upper body was now mostly exposed. All of a sudden, the door was kicked open and two people rushed in! Ava immediately rolled off the bed and covered herself with some clothes as she screamed, “Hurry! Get the d*mn pictures!” One of the two men who had entered was Nathaniel while the other was of course, Stuart. Nathaniel seemed to be recording as Ava started crying. “S

“Oh, you’ll see what I mean in a little while,” said Gerald with a smile. At that moment, a few cars arrived at the entrance of the building. When their doors were opened, out stepped Spencer—Waylon’s father—, Jarvan Wilson—the current deputy minister—and Norman Lay—the investment company’s assistant manager. All of them bore serious expressions on their faces. Zack Lyle and Michael Zeke were present as well, both looking equally upset. If Gerald hadn’t sent Zack a message telling him that there were problems with the company, neither Zack nor Michael would have ever found out that all this was happening under their noses. As it turned out, the profit of the company and the departments within it were all involved just because of a few people. After hearing what Gerald had found the night before, Zack called everyone relevant back to the office before interrogating them thoroughly throughout the entire night. Under Gerald’s order, he was to bring them to the office now. As
