(A week later)Rowan sat on the sofa, munching an apple scrolling casually through his phone.It had been a week since the company secured the contract. Zora had been busy and she had refused to let him help in any way..Besides, he figured out she had her style of doing things, so trying to forcibly find his way in wouldn't be too good.It was better to watch from the sides. If anything were to happen, he was going to take care of it.Just as Rowan thought like this, his phone suddenly buzzed, popping up with Dominic's name.Seeing this, he answered the car,"Sir," Dominic said, sounding rather carefree."What's wrong?""There's a lead on the matter you asked me to look into," Dominic answered, his voice turning serious.Instantly, the atmosphere around Rowan tightened and his voice turned cold,"Wait for me, I'll be there."Without waiting for Dominic's reply, he ended the call, placed the last piece of fruit into his mouth and looked at the empty office.Zora was not around. He wan
Her Master
Minutes later, Rowan and Dominic arrived at the hospital. Alighting from the car, they walked in.The smell of medicines, mixed with others hit their noses and they couldn't help but frown slightly as they found their way towards their target."Which room is he?" Rowan asked, breaking the silence,"He should be in room five, on the third floor," Dominic answered, pulling out his phone to confirm the information.After all, he had not been here and was merely following and investigation results, that was all.That being the case, they would have to discover and head over personally.Without wasting a second, Rowan and Dominic got into the elevator and headed to the second floor.Getting there, they entered room five.Once inside the room, Dominic closed the door and also pulled out his phone to make a call to the authorities.Inside the room was a single bed, then a drip and a man whose legs were wrapped in bandage sat on the bed peeling an apple.The moment he saw Rowan and Dominic w

Get Out

Throw Away
Rowan let out a deep breath the moment he walked out of the ward. He wanted to say something, but all of the words were stuck in his throat.A part of him had accepted the old man didn't leave anything for him. But hearing what the driver said, he didn't know how to feel.Gratitude, Relief, resentment, anger, Hatred? He just didn't know what to feel.That company was supposed to be his. It was rightfully his. But what happened?"Sir, I think we should take a proper look into it," Dominic spoke, his voice pulling out Rowan from his thoughts."Schedule a meeting with my father's lawyer, I want to know what's happening,""Should I investigate him first?" Dominic suggested, knowing the kind of person Rowan was."There's no need for that," Rowan refused,He sighed and then added,"Let's see if he's willing to tell the truth,""Else I don't mind destroying his career.""Yes sir," Dominic nodded and then took out Rowan's phone which was with him."Boss, your phone has been ringing for a whil
A Drag
Stepping outside, Rowan and Dominic got into the car and headed to Bio Technologies.A lot was probably going to happen. Well, they would see once they got there.Fifteen minutes later, the car pulled up before the company.Alighting from the car, the two took in a deep breath before walking slowly into the company.The guards at the gate didn't dare to step them.That was Mr. Dominic, the assistant to the president of Aurex. Though the president was someone who had almost never appeared, they knew the strength of Aurex.Not only that, even the head of their company would have to show some respect to Dominic. Walking into the company, the two looked around not knowing where to start.Rowan closed his eyes as he remembered the past.The past when his mother started the company and his father later joined in leaving his work to manage it when his mother got sick.He knew every corner of the company. Every single place."Let's go," Rowan came back to his senses, glanced at Dominic and b
You?
"How dare you!" Alan burst out into a rage seeing this, his veins bulging out of his neck as he glared at Rowan."Come on, calm down, don't yell like that," Rowan laughed, shaking his head,"Else, people would think you're an idiot.""You..." Alan gritted his teeth, pointing at Rowan, his face turning beet red."Alright, enough of the shootings," Rowan's expression turned serious staring at the other shareholders."I'm Rowan Ashford, son of Selena and Williams.""I'm sure most of you know my mother," He continued, his voice dropping low."I didn't come here to interrupt your meeting or interfere in your company's issues,""For now, that's none of my business. But that's only for now." He chuckled relaxing back on the chair."All I came here to say is that the missing ten percent, if by chance you're looking for who owns it, then it's with me."The moment Rowan said that, everyone froze."That can't be true." Alan yelled, not believing his ears."Your father owned fifty percent of the
Emotions Means Nothing
Rowan stabilized his emotions and closed the deed. His father never changed his name, nor did he remove him from it.What was happening?Why would he do this?Or perhaps he wanted him to forgive him?No, that was impossible, there was no way he would want that right?There was no way he was going to forgive that man. He had done a lot of terrible things."Let's go," Rowan sighed and walked out of the study heading back to the living room."Going already?" Leen's mocking voice came just as he was about to walk out of the house."Ohh yeah, I remember something," Rowan smirked, turning around."I'll be giving you two choices," He continued, raising one of his fingers,"First, either you pay me rent starting from now on. Or you get the heck out of my house.""Second, if you choose to get the hell out, then get out in two hours, else, I'll invite the authorities to help you move out."Leen froze the instant she heard this and she blinked, staring at Rowan."What in hell are you talking abo
Logic
"Huh?" Rowan froze, his eyes nearly bulging out of their sockets."What did you just say?" He asked slowly, hoping he had just heard the right thing."Don't you want to do it?" Zora countered, raising her brows instead, looking like she was about to beat ho Rowan."No no, that's not what I meant," Rowan swallowed, knowing well, he had to keep the hell shut."Good, then translate it," Zora rolled her eyes at him, scoffed and then walked away."Good Lord," Rowan sighed, knowing he had gotten himself into a clinch. There was nothing he could do at this point other than listen to Zora.Having no other choice, he still up and walked towards the other seat with the laptop and started typing away.Though there were other ways to do it other than manually having him do it, Zora's gaze on him told him otherwise.Hours passed in a flash and soon, it was time for them to leave the company."Finally," Rowan moaned, standing up from where he was sitting, stretching his body,For the past few hours
