Maximus sat on his couch the next morning, the sunlight streaming through the apartment window. His phone rested in his palms with the screen displaying a long list of real estate properties.

He had spent most of the morning hours doom scrolling through mansions, a concept that still felt foreign.

A mansion?

For him?

Just a few months ago, he was scraping by and avoiding the dreed of his landlord.

But now, things have changed.

Now, with three million quid sitting in his bank account and the

    Maximus swung his leg over his power bike, slipping on his helmet with practised ease.The engine roared to life beneath him, and he let the sound wash over him like a water fall.As he pulled out of the parking lot for the last time, he felt a weight lift from his shoulders.The ride to his mansion was smooth, the streets quieter now as the city settled into the early afternoon.The outskirts of the city were greener, the air fresher and Maximus couldn’t help but feel like he was stepping into an entirely different world.When he reached the long, winding driveway of his new home, the sight of the mansion took his breath away all over again.Its sleek design blended seemlessly with the natural surroundings.Standing at the gated entrances were two men in sharp black suits. Their posture was firm, their eyes scanning the area with a keen awareness.As Maximus approached, one of them stepped forward, a slight smile breaking his otherwise stoic demeanor.“Mr. Prime,” the guard said, inc

    About a half hour later that day, Maximus parked his power bike outside Gardenia Bistro restaurant. It was a cozy, but upscale spot known for its quiet ambiance and excellent tea.He adjusted the collar of his shirt, making sure he looked half presentable before stepping inside.The host greeted him with a calm smile. “Good afternoon, sir. Do you have a reservation?”“I’m meeting someone here, Someone named Mr. Keith Hall…” Maximus replied.The host nodded. “Right this way sir…”Maximus followed, his nerves settling slightly as they walked toward a table near the window. Waiting there was a sharply dressed man in his late thirties, his monolid eyes complemented his fair skin tone and his posture relaxed but professional.“Mr. Prime,” Keith said, standing to shake Maximus’s hand. “Good to finally meet you.”“Pleasure is mine, Mr. Hall…” Maximus replied as he extended his hand for a firm grip.Keith gestured to the seat across from him. “Please, have a seat. My client will be joining us

    The charges had been cleared and though his life couldn’t return to the way it used to be, he was happy it was like this and that he had left that company while he still had the chance, if not he might have still been a man slaving away for an average salary. This was much better than any job could offer.The anger that was built up inside of him was replaced by something calmer.Relief.No one could use those accusations against him anymore, his name was officially cleared.Still, he had no cause to celebrate.He grabbed the remote and turned off the television, “Too little too late…” he said to no one in particular.He got up, pulling on his tracksuit, and tied the strings tight around his waist. If there was one thing that could help him shake off the remnants of his anger, it was a good run.When he finally stepped outside, the cool morning breeze greeted him. The sun was still low, the neighborhood was quiet except for the barking of a dog or the faint hum of a car in the dista

    It had become a habit of his, constantly checking the systems status of his businesses, checking for loop holes, opportunities to grasp at, things that should be done but weren't for whatever reason.A smirk played across his lips, his businesses were thriving as they should, and ontop of that he had a really good evening with Lily, better than he had even expected. She had been shy and nervous, but there was something endearing about her honesty and the way she tried to put herself out there despite her awkwardness.“Guess I'm not as rusty as I thought, I still got my charm!” he said to himself.The streets were quieter now, the hum of the city mellowed under the soft glow of the streetlights.Rounding the corner, his steps slowed when he noticed a figure standing by the restaurants entrance.Or rather, two figures.One of them was a woman he most definitely recognized her face. Her posture too, her dark hair falling over her shoulders, it was uncanny. It was his ex-girlfriend, Diana

    Maximus and the renovation officer moved through the newly refurbished apartment building as the glow of the afternoon sun flushed through the floor to ceiling windows. The light shone on the polished tiles floors and freshly painted walls gave the place an inviting aroma. "Looks... Neat," he murmured, running his hands along the smooth wooden banister. It had been weeks of grueling work since he purchased the building. Work permits, contractors, delays and the occasional sleepless night. To see it all come together like this felt satisfying. "Hehe, not bad isn't it?" The renovations officer asked with a huge grin. "You remember how this place was when we first walked in. I was half convinced it'd collapse if someone coughed too hard." His remarks made Maximus chuckle, shaking his head. "Tell me about it. I still have nightmares about that leaky ceiling on the second floor. And don't even getd started on the plumbing." "Ah, the plumbing... " The renovations officer said dramatic
