Lies and Ashes
Frank's cubicle felt tight as though the air had been knocked out of the space. Chatters from Co–workers blurred into echoes. Mr. Ballard's gaze earlier was like a bullet shot from a Silenced pistol— lethal and venomous.The phone on his table buzzed non-stop. His father was calling, Why?Why?His father disowned him five years ago. No calls. No Text. He just burnt the bridge. Now he was calling. Again, why? But Blake knew this was a crack. It wasn't reconciliation. The call, it has an agenda. All red flags.He bragged about being the son of the mysterious CEO of Globulex, geared by the She–devil, Sarah and now, he didn't know what awaits him in the boardroom. Mr. Ballard's Expression wasn't joking. Sarah is gone and he was alone to face whatever the aftermath of his foolishness would be.He forced his shoulder to straighten but he hunched, his suit felt heavy and useless, the phone still buzzing in his hand as he walked in the direction of the boardroom.Heads spun in the direction o
Poisonous Victory
Blake's words hung in the air— unsettling. His hands jammed into his pants pocket, eyes cold, locked on Sarah as though he would tear her down with his gaze. He looks like a professor and he's about to teach her some real lessons.Sarah's smirk deflated like weary tires, her shoulder sank but her eyes carried an unsettling weight— anger and disbelief.She warred Confusion, wondering just how the phone got back into her bag when she'd slipped into his pocket to implicate and embarrassed him. Not only did she look like a fool but also dumbstruck. The worthless son-in-law of their family had literally lashed her ass and she was about to kiss the dust right in front of.... the people were waiting, phones hanging in the air to record her embarrassment like it was some sort of entertainment. Her finger tightened, digging into her palm. These were the same people who'd supported her earlier, but now they've bailed.. calling her a thief. “Kiss his boot! A promise is a debt and the consequenc
Guts and downfall
The lobby buzzed with murmurs, phones dangled in the air, shooting light on Frank's face like a popular celebrity had just shown face. Some people had tweeted it; #SonOfTheMysterousCEO#, #HiddenBillionareHeir#The Internet was literally exploding and the news was spreading fast.Staff members of the organization watched, shocked that they had been with the Son of the unknown founder of Globulex. Though, some people who knew Frank as a silver-tongued didn't believe him. But it was too expensive to be a joke.“Wow! He's really the son of the CEO?”“Heck! He's smart, how could he keep his identity hidden so perfectly!" The circus continued, each one expressing shocks and surprise and it was only fueling Frank's delusional ambition. A smug smirk tugged on his lips, his shoulder heavy, puffed out like he'd just revealed the weight he was carrying on his shoulder in secret.Sarah stood at his side, her smile wide, basking in the moment. Herself, she was surprised Frank had never revealed h
Son of the CEO
Franks accusations stung like dagger dripping with poison.“And if I check you and you have the phone, what should I... everyone here do to you.” He pointed around, his voice dropping to a quiet thunder, firing Blake a glare.Other staffs of Globulex had clustered and the Murmuring buzzed louder.“Check him! Thief are useless confidence until their ass is exposed!" A woman with a designer purse screeched.Another man twisted his face with disgust, eyeing Blake up and down with clear disgust and under– looking gaze, judging from his appearance.“He looks like a piece of rag. Who allowed him wall inside of here. Someone like this doesn't even deserve a damn seat here!" He adjusted his clean white suit with fingers that carried a silver cartier Worth millions of dollars.Grace stood at a side, a curt smile on her lips— knowing and cruel.‘You'll be disgraced.’ She said in her mind.Blake looked at her, his face tightened with a scowl but he suddenly smiled. A small smile that would make
Another accusation
Juliana's eyes were steely, burning through Sarah like iron in a volcano. She was looking directly into her soul, past the make-up on her face, beyond the deception in her eyes.She knew this tone. she'd read it. Studied psychology and this tone, the desperation, the bitter eagerness and contemptuous gaze. She wasn't new to them. Sarah was momentarily dumbfounded by her question. She'd expected her to grasp at her fabrication and hold it against Blake then rub it on his face. The she–devil being inside of her died at the moment and her lips quivered slightly like the cooling system was getting cooler, freezing her in place and making her system malfunction.Sarah's lips parted to say something but Juliana stepped forward slowly and interrupted her.“Don't—” She raised her hand mid-air.She stood in her front and Sarah was melting under her tormenting gaze. “You gave a man $100 dollars, he turned it down,” She stepped closer, her lips curled with a small smile. “And that same man pai
Sarah accusing Blake before Juliana
Blake Blinked, staring at the Juliana with uncertainty nibbling in his heart.She's just a manager but the way she speaks..it was like she owned the whole organization.Like her managerial position was only a facade. Her tone indicated a woman who had sipped from a golden cup meant for a goddess and powerful men and as though she was used to speaking about billions.Julianne didn't say another word. She simply grabbed the office telephone. She didn't ask. Didn't request. It was a direct instruction.“Postpone the interview. Next 30 minutes. I'm in an urgent meeting.” She said and dropped the phone.Blake stared at her, wondering what she was trying to prove. This woman was putting her career at risk because of what?Blake clutched his file tight and his voice came next, low but firm.“Ms.Julianne,” He started, “First I shouldn't be in this room with you and I only helped you. You don't need to impress me to show gratification. You're just a manager here. You're putting your duty here
