"Why don't we just wait and see? I mean, we don't have to wait for 3 days to see who the Sterling family wishes to continue business with." "Ladies and gentlemen. Please put your hands together as we welcome Thomas Sterling to the stage," Micheal said and even before Micheal completed the statement, the hall put their hands together, applauding Thomas as he walked towards him.75 percent of people in the hall admired Thomas, while 20 percent envied him because everyone believes him to be the next chairman of Sterling Company, and considering that he's still in his prime age, they argued that he would do remarkably better than Victor, while the remaining 5 percent didn't really care at all.Thomas took the mic from Micheal, and smiled; deep down, he wished he was programmed to kill because he knew that the only thing in his way currently was now Dylan.With Dylan's status in the family, Victor was nothing but a help put in place to manage the conglomerate."I don't need an introductio

After Dylan left the room with Sophia, he stopped her from taking a step forward. "What are you doing?" He asked, causing Sophia to arch her brows, questioning."What do you mean?" She asked innocently.Dylan gazed at her for a few minutes and shook his head. "I'm stressed. Never mind,"With that, he left the room and headed straight to his bedroom.The next day.Thomas got ready to leave for the company but on his way out of the sitting room to his car, he was stopped by Victor, "Thomas, where are you heading?" He asked,"To the office," he informed, causing Victor to gesture for Thomas to come back."I'll be late grandpa and I have a few important meetings to attend this morning, I don't want to be late,"Victor frowned at his words and said, "What about your uncle? Did you forget that you're to introduce him to everyone at the company?" "Why can't you just do that? Isn't he your special guest? I can't entertain that this morning, Grandpa; it would slow my day," he said and turned

The day went so quickly and Thomas was occupied throughout that he didn't realize when it was getting close up his dinner with Rachel."Do you have to do this sir?" His secretary asked. She was closer to Thomas than anyone else and Thomas trusted her so much that she knew everything about his actions, movement, whereabouts and the likes."Yes, I do, Emily. What other better option do we have to get close to the enemy of our enemy?" he asked."I can randomly meet her at a mall or a spa, and we could be friends. That's a safe option. Do you know what people would say when they see you both together? That would bring up something new and people will definitely be interested to hear about it!" She said, causing Thomas to narrow his eyes."You have a good idea and I understand that you're trying to be careful but there's no need to do that, careful is slow and one thing that I have learned so far is that we need to take risk to get a few things done," He informed, trying to make it clear t

Rachel was completely stunned; on her first day with Thomas Sterling, she got herself a check for a whopping 2 million dollars."Is this what you do?" She asked, arching her brows as he gently placed her hand on top of the check. It felt too easy and too good to be true."You see... Here's the difference between the two of us: to you, that might be a lot of money but to me, that's just money that I spend on a daily basis." He said and gazed at the check like 2 million dollars was nothing."Wow..." Rachel thought, trying hard to maintain composure."You look stunned; I get that a lot so be free to act surprised. Also be free to add another million if you wish." He said and sipped from the glass of wine in front of him.For a moment, Rachel was completely speechless; she opened her lips to speak but couldn't find the right words. Observing this attitude, Thomas knew that he had outdone himself again, and he grew instantly bored because, just like most girls, she was just easy to get, a

"At the court? What do you mean?" Rachel asked."Is something wrong?" Thomas asked, seeing the look on Rachel's face. Meanwhile Karen head the man's voice and curiously asked, "Who's that? Is that Tyler?" She asked but before Rachel could even respond, she said,"If that's Tyler then please come with him because I think your ex-husband stole a car and I believe that we need to report this to the police after we successfully finalize the divorce agreement." A soft chuckle escaped Dylan's lips. He knew why Karen has been mean to him but he didn't think that she would keep a grudge for a very long time. During the early months of his marriage with Rachel, when she was the perfect woman, Karen would usually try getting her way with him, saying how she could satisfy him in bed, unlike his wife."It's not Tyler; don't worry, I'll be there soon so that you can enlighten me more," she said, ending the call. After ending the call with Rachel, a smile slowly curled up on her lips."You rememb
