Group Chat
Mason lay across his king-size bed, one arm tucked beneath his head, as the soft glow of his phone illuminated the space. He had been ignoring the department group chat for days due to the endless notifications and pointless arguments. But today was different, and boredom had a way of lowering standards.With a click of his thumb, he opened the engineering group chat. The first thing that greeted him was chaos: messages stacking on, emojis flooding his screen, and voice notes that he had no intention of listening to coming in.Mason frowned slightly and began scrolling upward, trying to trace the origin of their excitement. After a few seconds, he paused at the highlighted messages, which caught his attention. [ANNOUNCEMENT: DEPARTMENTAL TRIP TO SONG ISLAND]“Songs Island?” he muttered under his breath. The survival program is now part of the university curriculum, which is taking place on Song Island. Mason has heard of students who have gone through the various stages of the progr
Quiet Secrets
The Williams mansion was calm as usual, and the soft lights glowed against marble walls, mixing with the low hum of a classic movie drifting from the living room. Mason stepped inside, loosening his tie with one hand while his eyes scanned through the space.After the deal between the Higgs family, Mason, using his presence as an opportunity, attended the company meetings. Most staff who weren't expecting him felt their bodies stiffen in his presence. Though he was young, handsome, and seemed kind, the sense of fear still lingered around them, probably from the thought of losing their job, making the young CEO unreadable.“I’m glad that’s over,” Mason muttered to himself, shifting his gaze to the wide leather couch where his mother sat, wrapped in a light shawl. She trained her gaze on the screen as Black and white actors spoke words long forgotten by time.She sensed him before she saw him, and her lips curved into a smile. She averted her head, and with a small motion of her fingers
Higgs Villa
Jacob drove through the city with one hand on the wheel and the other resting casually on his open window. The skyline blurred past as satisfaction settled in his chest. Mason Williams remained a ghost to him, but that didn’t matter much to him. The signature was real, and the deal was sealed. An abrupt image of Billy’s face flashed in his thoughts, and a wave of disgust crept over Jacob’s face, twisting his features.“That bastard," he muttered under his breath. "How dare he ask me such a ridiculous question! He clearly doesn't know who I am or what I'm capable of." He chuckled softly, turning his gaze toward the briefcase resting on the passenger seat. "With this, I can get him fired," he said, with a hint of satisfaction flashing in his eyes.Suddenly, the chime of his phone snapped him out of his thoughts. He reached over and glanced at the screen. Natalia’s name was displayed, and Jacob rolled his eyes."What does this bitch want?" He scoffed, swattin
A Business Deal 3
With the question hanging in the air, Billy walked in with measured confidence, taking the seat opposite Jacob. He dropped the files on the desk before raising his gaze to meet his gaze. “Mr. Williams sends his regards,” Billy replied. “I will be representing him today.”The temperature in the room suddenly dropped. Jacob instinctively glanced at his watch, noting their late arrival. It also struck him that they had waited for hours just to be attended by someone who, to him, did not seem worthy of his time. His jaw tightened in frustration, but he managed to keep a steady smile on his face, though anyone familiar with reading between the lines could see through his facade. "I was under the impression that the presence of the Williams heir was required for this meeting." "And I was under the impression that the proposal was more important than appearances." Billy responded calmly.Jacob, with his hand hanging by his side, clenched his fist in irritation. When he looked at Billy, he
A Business Deal 2
At that moment, a panicked expression crawled into Billy’s face, and he forced down a lump forming in his throat. For weeks the Highs have been trying to secure a meeting with Williams, who has always declined their offer for some reason. Now after finally securing a million-dollar deal, the thought of messing it up already made Billy's stomach twitch with uncertainty.‘He wants me to attend a million-dollar deal?!’“Me?” Billy asked, lowering his voice, as though the walls themselves might overhear him. “Sir, the Higgs family requested you personally. Jacob Higgs is already inside.”Mason raised his brow, his expression composed, almost as if he was bored, and yet his eyes held a sharp awareness that made Billy straighten unconsciously.“That is precisely why you’re going in instead of me,” he answered. Billy searched his face, hoping to find a trace of doubt, but there was none. Mason trusted him enough to reveal the surface of his plan to him, but he wasn't ready to take the chanc
A Business Deal
The following morning approached swiftly, and a narrow glimpse of daylight seeped through the open window of Mason’s room, allowing a chilly breeze to gently circulate the space. Mason's eyelids fluttered open gradually, and for a brief moment, he lay still, attentively listening to the quiet serenity of the morning. Suddenly, a familiar chime echoed softly beside him. he, averted his gaze, and reached out for his phone resting on the bedside table. A single notification pulsed at the top of the screen, drawing his attention. The name attached to the alert indicated it was from his assistant, Billy, and the message involved a document requiring his review. His eyebrows furrowed as he read the text.'Revise proposal; Higgs cooperation’Mason unlocked his phone with a quick swipe, then tapped to open the attached file. Lines of neatly organized data unfolded, indicating meetings at 9am, the latest financial projections prepared by the CEO of Higgs Corporation, and a list of political
