The house of Mr Anthony was neat and tidy, and it contained the exact amount of things he needed, except for the extra chairs in the living room. They slept there for the night and Adeline didn't make one complain. She slept on the bed naturally, although she objected, after she’d slept off, Blinks had however carried her to the bed. After she had completely fallen asleep. The boys assembled in the living room to discuss what had happened. Mr Anthony glared at Blinks as soon as they reached the living room, demanding answers by just gazing at the man. Blinks however didn't say anything, he only stared back at the lawyer, he hated when the lawyer glared at him for an explanation like he was a little kid. “What are you two doing, staring at each other like little kids, can we begin the topic on ground?” Adrian demanded, shaking his head.“So how did it happen in the first place,” Mr Anthony asked, giving up on just staring.They explained everything that had happened from their car e

He glanced at her wondering what she wanted to say. “I am listening,” he said after they had both stared at each other for a comfortable amount of time. He didn't really want to talk but he felt himself starting to stare like a creep so he spoke to discard the other thoughts streaming into his head. “You remember I told you about my dad putting me up for auction literally,” she nodded, grinning at him. “I wouldn't say auction, but I do remember, what about it?” He inquired curiously. “I am supposed to meet the person in a month’s time,” she replied. “It's a meet and greet, a get to know, an introduction, a…” she kept on but Adrian stopped her. “Yeah, I get it,” he smiled at her. “So you mean we have just a month?” He asked. “More or less,” she replied. “More or less, I never understood why that statement means yes,” he gazed up like he was having a deep thought. “Anyways, let's have fun then, let us make it the best month of our lives,” he said.Rose stared at him. She liked how

Adrian sat down amidst the other ten people that made up the board, he sat down, his head clear and calm. He had been practicing for this day for the whole week. Before he entered the room he received a good luck hug from Adeline who was extremely fired up for him. He was as usual seated beside Mr Anthony who was actually seated at the chair that was obviously only reserved for the CEO. Doctor Huns was sitting confidently, he had an arrogant grin to his expression and Adrian knew he couldn't wait to wipe that grin off his face. “This meeting was canceled last time due to the fact that we couldn't come to a conclusion about a rather crucial decision, and we decided to reschedule, a rare occurrence,” Mr Desmond began the meeting with his usual cheerfulness. He glanced at Hargreaves playfully. “Today was scheduled for bowling on Hargreaves board. She isn't any good at it so she is actually happy,” he said and he got a little pinch from the woman who was also giggling. The rest of the b

He was just a boy who had grown under the shade of his mother, he wasn't ready for this. Huns was the one who came to convince him and the others. He couldn't do this, he didn't have the capacity. Raymond was breathing heavily now.“There is no legal standing that makes you a part of this company. The only reason I am not kicking you and your merry band of riffraffs out right now is because I loved your father as a brother and I mean to keep his dignity. Cross me again and you will rue the day you were born!” Desmond continued his assault.He stopped and Adrian felt chills he could see the entire atmosphere had gone cold. It was easy to see a lion roar, or see a dog bark but when an elephant goes into a spree of anger, everyone shuts up. That was what just happened. The seemingly jovial and relaxed man had let loose his own screws and everyone was just stumped. Desmond however wasn't done with the whole thing. He stepped closer to him. “Now get out of this room as quietly as you can

Huns walked out of the building, depressed, frustrated and angry. He had never been back to such a corner in his life. He has been working with the Castle and Castle company for a while and he knows all those he worked with one after the order. He was so good at this that he could make preliminary judgment as to how they do things, how they act. He knew what they all could do. Out of all the board members, the real people that could hurt him were Hargreaves, Desmond and Anthony. And those three, they had a sense of comradeship, they normally always saw the board members as a part of an ancient ritual in a way. Like all of them were indispensable. They always sorted a way to protect everything from falling apart, so why did they all easily agree to just let him go. He knew they must have discovered his ploy, but how. How did they know all he did, or did they even know? His head was stuck in a jumble of thoughts. He couldn't just understand how all this had befallen him. Why would th
