Their gaze met and Linda struggled to swallow hard. “Good morning, dear. I …I came for the interviews,” she stuttered heavily, her gaze now lowered to avoid Ethan’s interrogative stare.“I least expected you showing up.” Ethan sat up and pointed her to a seat, “You lost your father’s group to me and you want to work for me in the same group? There are many groups out there that can hire you so why me?”“My father’s group like you said,” she sniffed gently, daring to fight off the shades of emotion that engulfed her as she dared to recall the loss. “I guess I stand a better chance to manage it and take it to the next level, since nothing is new about it…”“I want a fresh graduate for this position, Linda. You don’t stand a chance,” Ethan tossed his head and clicked his fingers… “Tell me why I shouldn’t reject you…”“I have two masters, three doctorate, and two first degrees in business administration, I got what it takes to be your manager. Let’s keep our differences aside. I can perfo

That night Rex had visited Ethan for dinner but within him, he knew the purpose of his visit wasn’t for the sake of dinner but to steal a chance to convince him about Linda. After appreciating him for hiring her as his branch manager, he pretentiously focused on talks about Linda just to capture his attention.“I have never seen a girl as educated as Linda. I guess you saw that in the interview,” he stole a glance at Ethan who was busy staring at the highlight on TV.He tossed his head idly, and Rex would have preferred a cold reply to the tossing of head which made him look like a fool. Ever since they started eating, Ethan had never muttered a word, especially when he raised discussion about Linda.Seeing that discussion about Linda wasn’t doing the charm, Rex resumed another discussion about his cousin’s son.“You are yet to see Mark, but that guy surprised his parents last weekend. He proposed to his girlfriend, and guess what they are expecting a baby. Despite his father’s warnin

“Have you ever pondered the impossibility of doing what you just said,” Linda blinked thoughtfully at him, her studious gaze on his venous hands that took out a stick of cigar and began to smoke. “Did you just say it for saying sake or you want to put me in trouble..”Jack hesitated , and once he puffed a cloud of smoke he sat down, and let a dismissive chuckle. “Ethan is fucking rich, and besides you are not stealing his money but stealing back what belongs to you…”She tossed her head. “Stealing back what belongs to me? How?” she seemed to be gaining interested; it was evident in the way she sat almost close to him. “I have lost that company. I don’t think I can ever reclaim it..”“Oh you can,” he cut in, and took out some documents. “Jeff group is currently worth 300 billion ever since Ethan stepped in, it is time to liaise with the accountants, the secretary and every useful staff that can aide your mission…”She dimmed her eyes thoughtfully. “And you think Ethan would have such e

Surrounded by the all masked men in a dark yard, Jack stood firmly with a harsh gaze shot across the towering-looking men. On the desk were assorted weapons, dark gloves, and chains of bullets.“I welcome you all to a new dimension and prospects,” Jack groaned, his steps gentle and calculative as he stared keenly at them, “One minute silence for our boss, Josh.” He declared.And they bowed as tranquility hovered in the yard.“Josh has passed on and he blessed me with the mantle to forge on this gang.”His voice seemed to bestow an ounce of ear-ringing order each time, leaving the gang staring engagingly at him.“after intense deliberation, I have decided to dissolve Josh group and rename it JL Tech, all for the sake of secrecy and for the formidability of our gang. We will still be hitting more money heists, terminating claws that scratch against us and ensure this world is in our pockets. Am I understood?”“Yes, boss!” they chorused at once and silence hung over them once again.“As

Ella stood impatiently at the door waiting to welcome George who had gone out to sympathize with Ethan over the huge loss by the invasion of the masked men at Ethan Bank. At the time Her twin babies, Eric and Elvis were playing with their toys, roaming around the sitting room.Once the door swung open, the cute twins ran to embrace George, thereby interrupting Ella to question George. She stood, smiling idly at them, appreciating the infallible love George had for the twins.Squatting at them, George plastered a chaste kiss on their brow, and handed them two sizable bags; this had often been his routine whenever he gets back from any destination, even if it be a stone throw George would buy some stuff for the twins.“Eric and Elvis, I want you to know one thing and that is…” George would pause.And the twins would complement, “… Dad loves us so much,” they would giggle and holding his chin, “And we love you too.”This had been their daily routine; George had not just grown fond of the
