Lord Eric Sanchez tutted his lips in deep concern and leaned back to the lounge chair in his chambers.

He hadn't called out that name over half a decade but the demands of time propelled him to do so.

Even hinting to Michael about the long-lived family feud— he was careful enough not to mention Gerald's name.

Michael drew a deep breath and held Lord Eric's shaky fingers while reminding him to drink extra water.

He knew for the Great Lord to be deeply worried about his older brother's looming threats showed how dangerous he should be.

The two concerned men indulged in uninterrupted silence that they could literally hear the ticking sound of the clock in the chambers.

Lord Eric had thick words to spill but needed some time to process them.

He wouldn't want to bore Michael with unnecessary details due to the arousing emotions and would prefer to reveal the most important details of what really happened.

Lord Eric exhaled sharply and leaned further while facing Michael. He just had to sta

I appreciate it.”“Well, I’d need more time to decide on the date most suitable.”“Stephaine, do send a message on how warmly we received their esteemed invitation and will soon respond on the most preferred date and week.”She actively nodded and exchanged quick glances with Sheraton as though they communicated in a muffled manner.Cole, Michael, Oprah, and Sharon caught the coded eye contact between the two ladies and pretended to act oblivious.Michael was yet to unders

    A problem? Hmm. What the hell happened. Huh? Questions plunged into hearts! Their minds were a jumbled mess of several outcomes. Sharon was the last person in the office expected to have such words to utter. However, from the fear oozing from her facial expression, it was evident something was clearly wrong. The smiles in the ambiance remained suspended. Michael, after a few seconds of introspective moments, engaged her. “Spill it out already.” “What went wrong?” Michael's heart was tugged in anticipation. He was ready to chest to whatever the unprecedented situation was. On the second consideration, everyone realized that before Sharon voiced out her alarm, she briefly stepped out to receive a phone call after being granted permission by Michael. Was the issue based on a trending gossip on the internet? Did she receive any form of alarming call? Trouble in paradise? Sharon, without waiting for further reactions, slowly stepped onward and stood in proximity with

    Complicated questions struck into the atmosphere. It was inevitable for all persons in the office not to plunge their minds into thoughts. A few minutes earlier, almost everyone in the room had good stuff to say about Mr. Snow, AKA Mr. Connection. That was possible due to the admirable work rate of his team and how zealous he had been about making the Wine Tasting Edition a success. The gripping question of whether he kept his promise lived rent-free in everyone's mind. In the past week, Michael had beamed and smiled at Mr. Snow's work ethic. He'd lost his respect if he was simply bluffing. The salient question was why the Universal Unity Centre would wake up two days before the forthcoming event and give such bad news. Something was definitely working underneath and it was Michael's duty to unravel the mystery. The profound thought about Mr. Snow was because of how he had assured Michael and his team of how cooperative Universal Unity Centre had been thus far. According to him

    “Oh…oh. I'm sorry for that,” he quickly appealed, his voice somewhat unsteady. Michael didn't show concern with the tiny uneasiness among Oprah, Stephanie, and Cole. His mind wandered away waiting for when Sharon would speak out. He believed the three staff would sort themselves out and eventually understood Cole was simply trying to light up the tense atmosphere and shouldn't be crucified. He wouldn't want to intensify the saddened energy by siding for anyone on the recent misunderstanding. Sharon was already fed up with listening to Oprah and Stephanie’s complaints about Cole's bad joke and had to speak out already. Amid all that, Sheraton remained mute and mostly concentrated her attention on Michael who was still drifting in thoughts. “The… manager maintained we should communicate with Mr. Snow and get the full information from him. One thing he was certain was the venue wouldn't be available for Eric Cottage Winery Enterprise even in six months.” Her mouth breathed out thos

Just the receiver’s name scrawled in black ink.Michael took seven steps towards the window to peel through for a while.He didn't notice any monitoring vehicle within his surroundings. He went back to the desk and tore the envelope open— he read the contents:“Your reign is temporary. The higher you climb, the harder you fall. Watch your back.”Michael chuckled, tightening the letter in his fist. He had faced worse and the sender should have known better.He had been fought with death threats, betrayal, deception—what was one more threat?But his instincts told him this was different.
