In the CEO’s office at Renox Group Building, it was dimly lit as someone is pacing around the office in concern and frustration. It was no other person than Viktor Langston. The recent events had made him so jittery so much that he lost his confidence. He was uncertain on the way forward as every thing he has had either been frozen or about to be crumbled.Earlier in the day, Something Jolce had planned initially to support the plan Justin had paid off. It was something about Langston past dealings which are of course illegal. She had used that information to cause uproar among the remaining of his important allies. The very loyal allies now seems to have double mind as they were left doubting why they were supporting Langston after getting to know about the information.The after affect had been so evident as important people inside Langston’s circle had been persuaded to switch alliances when they got the information. It could be dangerous for them if they had not because they wo

After Justin left the Renox Group Building and Langston made calls for support, which he was rejected, he decided to try one last trick to see if he can save his skin. Justin had barely settled down in his car when as assistant ran to him that Langston would like to see him.Slightly surprised, he followed the assistant back to the office. Once they were in, the assistant turned to leave. Justin stood, looking at Langston as he also looked back at him with a defeated expression. He was still seated on his big chair. He motioned to Justin to have a seat. Justin obliged him.“Justin” He started talking, trying to sound civil as much as possible. “I see that you have truly won but before you make any further moves, I want you to hear me out.”Justin looked at him more as he spoke. He was calm but firm as he replied. “I am all ears Langston but before you say anything, understand that I am not negotiating with you. You can not make demands as you are right now.”“It is not a demand. It is

During the reforms at the company which was painstakingly carried out to make sure it is effective, another person that was also undergoing some form of transformation was Justin’s classmate, Robert Unnuf. Over the past few months he had spent with Justin, he had moved from a timid and self doubting man to a very confident person. His experiences with Justin had changed his outlook on life and have inspired him to start thinking for himself and how he should create a name for himself.He had reflected on his life so far especially since he reconnected with Justin and how he had changed due to the intervention of his friend. He had been blessed with so many lessons from Justin as he witnessed first hand how he deals with issues of corruption. It left an indelible mark on him. He had decided to take a bold step with his life, he would start a business of his own.He did not want to just start a business for financial benefit, he wanted to be able to be impact in his own way and fight co

After awhile that Robert had left to start his own business and everything had returned to normalcy in the Company, Justin decided to stay a little while to oversee things before leaving back for the states. He could have left earlier and put Robert in charge but it also feels good to see that his friend is taking steps to better his life. With that being settled, he settled into the role of the CEO of the company properly and as expected, started getting invitations to high class events. He decided to honor one of the numerous invites and attend it. When he got to the venue, he keeps a low profile as he causally blended with the crowd, taking notes of the faces, hoping to see anyone familiar.Compared to the flashy suits around him, Justin was dressed rather modestly. He held a drink in his hand, sipping it as he looked around. This is a gathering of the city’s elites and he could glean some information about other people from occasions like this. His influence had earned him the inv

As Justin mingled with the crowd, he found a spot and stood there. He had played along with Hawke and didn’t try to reveal his identity as the person he was referring to earlier as the power that controls all in the city. He chuckled at the thought that Hawke was hoping to meet the mysterious man who wields a lot of control and wants to be in his good will, the same person who was him.He wondered if the evening could get any stranger. He had only came here out of politeness and did not expect to run into someone who wishes to meet him and be in his good books, not knowing he had already met him but had no idea. From the corner where he stood, he thought more about him. He assessed the kind of man Hawke could be. It is obvious that his business runs on the suffering of others. He usually manipulate events that would lead to the folding up of smaller companies in the same line of business as his and making the market focus on his products alone.Hawke was still mingling with the othe
