Nicholas rolled his eyes upon seeing the lady before him. Tania Edward, Maya's best friend who hated him with everything.
Tania wanted her best friend to end things with her from the moment she had laid eyes on Nicholas, so he too was not fond of her. "Tania, that is none of your concern." Nicholas shot her a warning glance which of course, she ignored and pressed on. "Haha! Of course this man is poor and doesn't belong here." She was talking to the waiter now, making her voice loud so people would begin to notice them. "Am I not right, Nicholas?" He would not give her the satisfaction of making himself angry. Instead he said, "what about you? What are you doing here?" "Well unlike you, I can afford this restaurant. I have a membership card so I want to get a meal." She looked around, "guards, why is this filth still here? He's poor and he can steal from us. Send him out now." "Shut up, Tania. And mind your business." He frowned. Taking a look at the card she was holding and flaunting in the air, he saw that it was the membership card of the lowest rank. Something she must have sweat to get. An idea was forming in his mind now. "You know what, Tania? Are you up for a game?" His brows arched up as he waited for her response. "A game? With you? Well that is just pure nonsense--" He cut her off and went on. "A game, yes. You act like you're so rich but all you carry is the lowest rank of Diner O membership card." He said and could hear a few laughter from the audience. Tania's face flustered red in embarrassment. If only Nicholas knew what she had done, the people she had slept with before she could get that card! How dare he mock her now! "You act like you're so rich. Then how come you can't even get any card at all, huh? You poor rag." She spat out angrily. "Well this is where our game begins. I will get a meal from the most expensive membership card menu, and I won't pay a dime. I won't even use a card." Nicholas said proudly. He could see those two buffy men from behind now, coming towards his side. There had to be a way of winning this game if truly his father owned Diner O. There had to be a way... Tania was already laughing now. "And then, if you can't do as you've said? What should I do in return?" She asked. "Anything you wish. I'll comply." Nicholas said simply. "Wow, how can you be so confident like this? Anyhow, once you're sleeping in jail tonight, it will give you a reminder never to mess with the rich." She said, Nicholas could feel everyone's eyes on him now, wondering how he still had the nerve to stay, wondering the strategy he was planning on using to win the game. At least, he wanted people to be looking at them so they would be able to watch Tania fail miserably. "And if I win, you will fall to your knees right here, and say you are sorry for all the bad things you have done in my life and I will consider not sending you to jail." Nicholas said to her. The woman snorted loudly. "Nonsense. Keep on dreaming, loser. I will never apologize for things I've said or done. Maya is better off without a beggar like you!" The waiter might have not recognized Nicholas, but as soon as he saw the two buffy men from behind, he began to fidget. "Sir? Is anything wrong?" Asked one of his bodyguards. Nicholas shook his head, then turned to the waiter. "Right? Mr. Waiter?" The man shifted glances between both men behind Nicholas and nodded. "Y--yes sir. No problem at all." Both hefty men who had been following him certainly held a high reputation around. Billy and Bobby, they were one of the important faces of Graham's Enterprise, along with Lindsay too. And seeing them with Nicholas, especially when they called him "Sir", it wouldn't take long for people to realize he was someone of high status too. Nicholas relaxed a bit now. "I want the most expensive dish on your menu, as well as your finest wine. And I won't be using any membership card, Mr. Waiter." He smiled at the man who quickly gave an awkward bow. "Yes sir. Coming right up!" And with that, he hurried from his sight to start making preparation. Nicholas turned back to face Tania. People who had been watching couldn't hide their hint of surprise as some began to clap and cheer for Nicholas. Others began to mumble, and really loudly: "Who does she think she is? I'm sure that young man must be really rich and influential." Someone said, "Well I hope he punishes her for losing. I know that lady well, and she only causes trouble everywhere she goes!" Said another one, a lady with wide eyes. Others began to talk too, and Tania couldn't hide the embarrassment in her eyes any longer. She snapped. "Hey you, take this man away!" She called Bobby and Billy. Nicholas shook his head for her. Foolish girl, calling on his own bodyguards to chase him out. "Are you deaf! Take this filth out of here right now!" She continued to command but Bobby and Billy only glared at her like she was someone who belonged in a mental hospital. Finally, she rushed forward and called the security at the entrance. "Get this man out of here! He's a thief and a liar!" Nicholas could see she was panicking now, realizing that she had lost the game. Both men flashed a questioning look at him, as if asking what they should do to her. "She owes me an apology. She owes me that big time." Nicholas said to them, remembering all the times Tania had embarrassed him publicly before. When she had even hit him in the presence of people, and said bad words to him. Bobby and Billy nodded to that and went towards Tania. The sneaky lady was trying to run away, seeing that she could not do anything again and had lost the game, but these men caught up to her just in time. With one hand, Bobby raised her up and carried her to Nicholas, then threw her to the ground. Billy forced her to kneel before Nicholas. "Apologize now, and we won't punch you till all your teeth are removed." He said to her, Fear had gripped her heart tight now and she realized she was in big trouble. "You might not know us, but we know you. And we know you work at Lola fashion house. Just a simple apology, or get ready to lose everything you've got." Bobby warned. Tania realized that that job was where most of her source of income was coming from. If she lost it now to her foolish pride... She fell to her knees. "No! Please, forgive me. I'm sorry for everything that has happened or what I've done, hmm? Forgive me now, Nicholas!" She caught both men frowning at her, "I mean, master Nicholas. Please forgive me!" Finally, Nicholas waved his hand to Bobby and Billy and they gave a nod. They pulled her to her feet and as they were about to throw her outside, a short man ran forward, "You are banned from Diner O, young miss!. Your membership card will be terminated. Don't ever set foot here, else, you will face severe consequences." The man said. He then faced Nicholas in a low bow. "Young master! Forgive me for not intervening since. Please, I am the manager of this great restaurant and I promise to serve you well like I have served your father." Nicholas only nodded. So this was his life now? "I just want to eat." He said as his stomach grumbled.

You Want Him to Take Revenge
After Nicholas had finally succeeded in “humiliating me and doing exactly what he wanted.” Davios could not even do anything. All those things “pissed me off so badly.” But I could not say a word and instead just pretended and kept silent. Of course, I cannot say a word yet because I have no right. “Again.” He literally stripped me of all my rights right there in my presence. I cannot even say anything or even do anything. Even when I tried to talk to him, the council members immediately signaled for me to sit down. “Want to be in the Mansion and if I still want to be respected, I had no choice but accept what he wants.” I felt so angry. I felt like I was about to run mad. This was not how I planned it, but definitely, I know that one thing. “I’d actually succeeded.” Darius had finally made everything so obvious to me. He had finally made everything work perfectly for me. Because I know that he looked very angry and vengeful the last time we were having a discussion. “And I know he'
No Emotions
Watching them all argue together, I couldn't help but feel so sad and heartbroken. I never wanted it to turn out like this. I never wanted Darius and Nicholas to end up fighting each other no matter what, because I just wanted them to be at peace with each other. But none of that was happening. I just had to sit there like a stone and watch them argue and hate each other. And I know that this was all the plan of Nora. It was more than obvious that Nora was the one doing all this. I could see it in the way she smiled when she looked at me. It was like she was signaling me that her plans were working out just the way she wanted it to. And I could not do anything about it. Even Darius looked at me with pity. But I was not able to even make a move because I don't want to offend Nicholas in any way. And the only way to be on his good side is by silently sitting down there and watching. “Give me that position. I did not want that position no matter what.” It was soon time for the counci
Standing Up Against Him
Standing up against Nicholas. I know it was a really bad thing now, something I'm not supposed to do. But I know that I have to do it because I have to at least show it to my mother that I'm ready to protect her and I'm ready to stand by her. But if I am not able to stand up for her, then she would continue to see me as somebody who is weak for my brother. And I am really not like that. I turn my attention back to Nicholas and make sure that my frown was deep enough for him to realize that I was really angry with him. “You cannot just take away my mother's position like that. I know that that's what she wanted to do since everyone was whispering about it, everyone was literally talking about it. Even the males were already pointing it out that you don't want my mother to be the Leader anymore. And I would not just accept that. At least think of it. Laura is not even ready to become a Leader. If you ask her a million times, she doesn't want it,” I said to Nicholas, hoping he would li
No Improvement
Once the meeting was already about to commence, I couldn't help but anticipate waiting for Nicholas to make that one mistake that will make Darius finally side with me. And he did it. He cleared his throat and stood up from the Position as everyone bowed to him. He looked so angry, but his gaze was still on Laura. As his gaze on Laura seemed a bit softened, I knew that something was definitely about to happen. I could not wait. Despite the fact that I was going to lose my Leader position anytime soon, I still could not wait and was anticipating what he was going to do to me. How he was going to betray his brother by taking away the one thing that makes me a royal in this Mansion. I stood. I sat down and watched as he began his speech. “Thank you everyone for showing up here. I am really grateful that you guys came here at this time and the fact that you guys have been patient with me enough despite the fact that I never wanted to have another Partner because of what have always happ
Your Poor Life
Laura was not "rejecting it because she liked being poor." She was "rejecting me because she was slowly losing feelings for me." This was clearly all Darius's fault. It made me so angry that I rolled my hand into a fist, hiding it behind me so she would not see it and think maybe I am angry at her thinking about everything. I felt so angry at Darius I just wanted to crush his head into pieces. But I can't do that. Instead, I'm going to get to Leader Nora. I would make sure that Nora lets go of that position as the Leader. She's going to give it to Laura no matter what. There is nothing Laura will tell me. I guess for me to do this and for my plan to work out, I don't need to tell Laura anymore. Instead, I just need to put it into action. I looked at Laura with a smile and placed my hand on her shoulder. "You don't have to worry, Laura. I won't stress you too much anymore and I won't bother you. I see that you don't want it and I don't plan on forcing it on you. I don't want to force
Not Able to Help
I don't know why, but no matter what I do, Laura "does always find a way to annoy me." She "always looks for a way to piss me off." She "always does things that would make me want to yell at her, want to yell at her angrily." And now I don't know what to do. I feel so frustrated. I can't believe I am clearly giving her a higher position and she's dragging with me that she "does not want to take that position and wants to go back to the slave quarters." I know I wasn't supposed to yell at her the way I did, but I don't have a choice. She just makes me so angry and so frustrated these few days that I don't know what to do. I watched her being harassed by Leader Nora, unable to control myself. Now I am taking away Leader Nora's position and giving it to her, yet she is pissing me off this way. I know how many ladies "would die for that position I am giving to her that she keeps rejecting." I know how many ladies "would want everything I am giving to her, but yet she's still doing this t
