The next morning Mark hurriedly jumped out of bed, still infuriated over the press release. He did not expect that his uncle would hand over the deals of the Duncan Empire to a total stranger and was finding it difficult to accept it.He had called his old friend Graham Finley in case he could not manage to change his Grandfather's mind. There was no way he was going to allow Dennis to upstage his position and what he had worked so hard for.However, Mark knew he had to make his objection subtle, not to raise suspicions about why he was so particular about the position, which might lead to his involvement with Rico. He quickly retrieved and checked his phone for a response from Graham, and after seeing none, he tossed it aside, prepared and in a few minutes was off to Lord Duncan's estate.****Meanwhile, at the Lord's Estate, Lord Duncan had phoned his lawyer earlier that morning to go over matters concerning the transfer of legal rights and authority to Dennis. They had spent the

After a few minutes, Dennis was at Singh's law firm. He disembarked the taxi and marched straight to the grand building.As soon as he reached the front entrance, the guards hurriedly opened the doors for him upon recognising Dennis from the video.He noticed the onlookers murmuring and talking within themselves, but Dennis ignored them and went straight to the front desk. While the receptionist was attending to him, right at that moment, an elegant young lady who was engaged in a conversation with some of the company's executives spotted him and gaped in shock."Dennis Apollo" she said satisfactorily, turned to the men she was with and excused herself.Her long golden hair danced gracefully on her back, cascading like a stream, as she made her way towards him, wearing a black maxi dress with a thigh slit that highlighted her curved figure and displayed her beauty.Her skin appeared smooth and pale in the fluorescent lighting of the room. She wore a reader's glasses that did nothing t

Dennis already informed Apiu in his text why Ashley was denying him entry. Little did she know that she was digging her grave by lying to Apiu as he already knew the truthHe glared at her for a while and then swung his arm across her face and growled "Are you insane? How dare you offend Mr Apollo! Is that how you treat my honored guests? Do you have a death wish?!" The shock from the slap took a few seconds for Ashley to process, and then suddenly she dropped to the floor and started shaking in great fear, and shifted her gaze towards Dennis, both stunned and sympathetically. The consequences of her actions flashed right before her eyes and she knew she had to appeal to Dennis if she didn't want to lose her job"Mr Apollo, I'm so sorry sir", she wailed and pleaded Apiu thundered "You ignorant bitch! What gives you the audacity to even talk to Mr Apollo. You are begging for a lesson and I'll teach you one" he then turned to Dennis and apologized again"I'm so sorry sir about this d

Before Mark could storm out of Lord Duncan's empire, he was stopped by Yura who gave him a deal he could not turn down.It did not come much as a shock to Yura to learn that Mark was secretly stealing the company's funds. She had always had an air of doubt about his intentions with the company.Mark was still in shock from being discovered while pondering his future prospects. His uncle had told him that he'd still have his position as the manager of the company, but Mark knew that sooner or later, he might lose that position as well, now that he was under tight scrutiny.However, Lord Duncan had other plans for him. He had assigned Yura a conflicting task and even when she could not understand why her grandfather would entrust such an important task to someone who was just caught stealing from them, she did not question it.Her grandfather had told her according to the widespread news that Druick Pharmaceuticals was responsible for the spread of the virus. That Dennis was right and t

Reluctantly, filled with fear Mark slowly approached the table where Rico was seatedAs he got closer to the table, his eyes widened in shock as he saw Graham Finley, the very man whom he had called to town to help him salvage the situation with Dennis and help put back things into controlBefore this moment, Mark had no idea that Rico and Graham were business associates or knew each other at all. Having Graham here tonight was going to jeopardise his mission. There was no way that he would be able to sell his lie about Dennis and have Rico agree to the fake agreement with Duncan Pharmaceuticals without Graham catching him in his lie.However, as he almost reached their table, Rico's security blocked his path. Mark was so frightened that he shivered uncontrollably and gulped as he saw the heavily built men clenched their fists.He feared he would be receiving the beating of his life right here and then, when just at that moment Rico, smirked and raised his fingers sending the guards
