Ric had successfully left the scene and navigated his way to the salon section in the mall."Excuse me Sir, do you require our services?" The very polite beautiful lady asked Ric very cautiously."Yes," Ric replied coldly wondering why she asked him the obvious."This way please," Shirley as her name tag stated, led Ric to the waiting area for his turn but she was stopped soon by a neatly dressed young man.Jeremy"What are you doing?" Jeremy scolded the lady.She jumped a bit in fear because she had so much respect for Jeremy as their top tier customer."I was just leading the gentleman to a seat to wait out his turn." Shirley explained to Jeremy but Ric stood still with a grim expression. Ric knew what Jeremy was up to and he was ready to teach him a proper lesson if he tried to act in an unruly manner which was quite inevitable considering the character of Jeremy."What do you want this time Jeremy?" Ric asked rescuing the innocent lady from the awkward situation."You don't qualify

Ric had told his friends that he had a lot of errands to run so he was going to be a bit late for the launch.However Ric had several meetings to attend and different regulatory boards sort him because of his new project.News had spread in days about the new project of a smart estate being proposed by the new president of the Milano group of companies.Several people suspected that he was the same that had just been elected as chairman of the Hemsworth board but that information was reserved for only the top one percent of the Elites in the city."Good afternoon Mr. Maximillano," Ric's secretary and the vice president greeted him cautiously.She knew Ric because he always accessed the building through a particular entrance and accessed his office through a separate elevator but she had never seen his face before as he always hid it underneath shades.Ric was not exactly trying to hide his identity from her since she was quite prominent and has no idea about his dual personality but he

The Launch started and a variety of food was displayed on several tables with the most exclusive and expensive ones being displayed on tables with the Elites seated round them. The table Camille sat in coincidentally had Aaliyah and Lisa seated there along with several of the young men and women Ric had met at the Artificial Intelligence launch. "Oh Brother you came!" Gregory Martinez said when he saw Ric. Gregory was also a second generation rich man whose family was into interior decoration, he was also familiar with Ric from that day so most on the table easily accepted Ric since they were quite acquainted with him already. The Launch went smoothly and everyone had a bite of variety appetizers, main dishes and desserts. Ric had barely picked his plate most times and same with Aaliyah, the duo often glanced at each other during the event. Meanwhile Lisa tried her best to keep her mouth shut in order not to ruin Aaliyah's mood, Lisa had noticed that Aaliyah often got upset w

At the front, Leonard pleaded for Greg and Camille to remain till the end of the launch, he knew that the restaurant was just a privilege and the last thing he wanted was to offend both men.“What he said was true,” Ric confessed shocking everyone across including Camellia and GregThey had all thought Leonard was the one forming the story against him just to pull him down, they didn’t expect to hear Ric admitting to his words.Ric never expected Leonard to spill that out in public out of jealousy, but seeing how things were going he had no choice but to clear the room.“What do you mean? You went to jail for killing someone?” Grey eyes widened out of shock.However, Ric shook his head negatively a littleRic turned to the crowd, and a soft smile escaped from his lips.“I would like to clear the rumors about me right here.” He said grabbing the attention of everyone even more.The whole room fell into total silence anticipating his next words.Lisa glanced at Aaliyah’s face trying to s

Seeing his face it was obvious he held a lot of grudges towards him.Leonard had always hated him at first, but he hated him even more at the thought of him being behind his sudden misfortune.His family reputation which he was trying to build and improve suddenly crumbled completely to the groundAt this rate, no one will want anything to do with them. Even his fixed appointments with the men of the higher class are automatically canceled. Leonard's anger increased even more at the thought of it. Ric massaged his face that hurt and watched Leonard who had a smirk across his face towards himLeonard walked close to Ric and suddenly grabbed him by his collar again. “What on earth did you do?” He yelled at his face out of anger.Ric only chuckled. “I did nothing, After all, I wasn’t worthy to be here just a few minutes ago, I was nothing but a killer.” He shrugged innocently at his face annoying Leonard completely.He wanted to punch Ric again out of anger but he was stopped by Grey
