Chapter 0018: Shameless
“I believe I should be asking you that question, Mr. Sanchez, as you seem to be forgetting where you are.”“Money is not everything, Mr. Augustus. I can make your life very miserable.”Max's expression turned unusually cold. “It seems instead of feeling remorseful, you would rather threaten me over what rightfully belongs to me. Fine then, I would like to see how this goes.”“I will not let you have your way, Mr. Augustus!... I will ruin you and Rosario!” Carlos warned but Max chuckled in response.“Please, go ahead. I'd love to see you try.”Carlos clenched his jaw, clearly not expecting Max to act so boldly.He'd always been accorded respect as he was not only a stockbroker but a prominent Mafia boss, yet for a young man who hadn't even grown a beard to act so casually before him.It was utter disrespect!He trembled in dissatisfaction as he turned to leave, with Arturo rising to his feet to do the same, only for Max to call out to him. “I hope you have robust savings,” Max remarke
Chapter 0017: Meeting Carlos Sanchez
“Is that so?... I didn't expect him to come in so fast. Fine then, where are they?”“Currently in the conference room.”“Then let's go and see them,” Max said as he got to his feet.“You go,” Brittany remarked. “I've got lectures to attend.”“Oh, alright.”“Later.” Brittany took her leave, while Meredith led Max to the conference room. There, they found Arturo and his father, Carlos, waiting on Max with bated breath.“Well, well, if it isn't the biggest stockbroker in Westbrook.” Max mocked as the Sanchez father and son duo rose to receive him.“How may I help you today?” As he spoke, he took his seat at the head of the table with Brittany coming to stand beside him.Clearing his throat, Carlos spoke up. “Mr. Augustus, firstly, I would like to congratulate you on becoming Rosario's CEO, it is truly a great position.”“Indeed, it is. I have big shoes to fill if I want to live up to my parents' legacy.”“I agree.” Carlos nodded. “Secondly, I would like to sincerely apologize for Artur
Chapter 0016: Witch Hunt
Caleb coughed awkwardly as his fellow executives backed away from him slowly, having realized that this wasn't an inspection or a meeting.It was a witch hunt!These men had always thought themselves untouchable yet in the face of a fierce CEO, they realized that they had no real power and everything they owned hinged on the whims of Max Augustus.“Sir, you have to believe me. It's not like I haven't tried my best, it's just that the recession really hit the hotel hard. But if you don't believe me, I'd be more than happy to tender my resignation. I have failed this company and I am willing to pay the price.”At first glance, it seemed like Caleb was defeated but Max was smart enough to understand that the old bastard was trying to eat his cake and have it.“Is that so?”“Yes, sir. I'll tender my resignation tomorrow.”“Unless, you think me a fool, you wouldn't say such rubbish.”“Sir?”Just then, Max's guards rushed into the restaurant and surrounded the group with one approaching wit
Chapter 0015: Dead shrimp
Naturally, Brittany was displeased by what the executives had said about Max, but couldn't act out as she wanted, after all, even though Rosario had the majority stake, they still had to respect the executives of Sterling Suites.In a bid to lighten the already tense mood, he let out a chuckle. “I'm just kidding, why so serious?”Caleb let out a tense laugh with the others joining in as well.Soon enough, Caleb led the way into the Sterling Suites with Max following closely behind while being flanked by Brittany and Jacob.The other senior executives trailed behind though none dared to fall too far behind.Just as they arrived at the VIP elevator to take them to the conference hall, Max suddenly remarked. “I'd like to see the restaurant.” “What?”“The restaurant, where is it?”“Sir, if you'd like to eat, I'd be more than happy to get the workers to bring some food to the hall. There's hardly a need for you to head there yourself.” Caleb said.“Who said anything about eating?”Before
Chapter 0014: New head of Rosario
Jonathan Darrow stood in his office located at the top of the skyscraper that served as the headquarters for Darrow Corp.As a businessman with an eye for profit, he'd always done what was needed to make money, not giving a damn about who had to suffer because of it.In his quest for riches, several small to medium-scale businesses were crushed, never to be seen again, yet he didn't care.As long as his pockets were deep and fat, nothing else mattered to him.Currently, he was enjoying a glass of red wine while staring at the beautiful view of the city.He had the dream of one day ruling as a king over everything in Westbrook which was why he had already begun to get involved with the politicians in the state.It was only a matter of time now and once his goal was reached, no one would be able to stop him from swallowing up everything there was, including Rosario.With a sinister grin, he sipped a bit of wine only to be jolted from his thoughts by a knock at the door.Seconds passed b
Chapter 0013: Beginning of their downfall
Before the conference at Solo Montel, several businessmen had benefited from Rosario being public to purchase shares, and yet did nothing to ensure the company moved forward.In fact, their actions would have caused Rosario to regress due to some insane policies they'd wanted to set up if not for Brittany putting in her best to prevent that from happening.Now that Max was back, he wasn't about to let anyone benefit from his family's blood and sweat without putting in the work.Glancing at Justin, he found that the old man approved of his actions, which made it all the better.Meanwhile, Mirabel and Bernard were panicking as they understood that the first half of Max's statement was pointed in their direction.Losing their connections with Rosario would impact their family's wealth significantly, so they had to do something before it was too late.Same with Arturo, as he immediately left, knowing that he had to figure something out before nighttime tomorrow.After the initial shock, t
