The First Revenge
CHAPTER TEN“You came?” Tony curled in air into his mouth, eyes brightening and jaw relaxing.He bent his head backwards. “Thank you,” he muttered, momentary joy glistening in his chest.Then getting himself and his duty; stepped aside, with a bow.“Welcome, sir,” he greeted.Mr. Famous gave him a slight nod and moved in, his guards; with covered faces following suit.Their all black monotone screamed the authority that Mr. Famous's casual dressing didn't show.“Good afternoon, sir,” Michael immediately fell on his knees, head bowed and palms neatly folded on his white trousered laps.Tony noted a shiver in his shoulders and smiled again.He wasn't surprised that the great Michael had it in him. Everyone cowered whenever they saw Mr. Famous.And Michael, no matter his status and influence would have to bow or die.He straightened up. There was no use analysing. Things were finally going as planned.“What brings you here sir?” He spoke gently, giving Linda even a harder time to proces
Finally, the meeting.
CHAPTER NINEWithout waiting for more words to be said, Tony pushed himself into the room, eyes wild and questioning.He chested out, and tightened his chin. He paused a bit to take in the room. It was painted white, alright, seemingly the colour of the company.“You look mentally deranged, eeww,” Michael paused with the club in hand, making a face, his back directly turned to the window.“Who are you?” He kept a steady gaze on him—more like letting disgust spread on his face.Tony stepped forward, waited, looked and took another step.“Pull off your shoes,” Michael ordered, pointing his club at him. But Tony took in his white shirt and grey pants flippantly, already judging him to be someone weak. He waved through, almost bumping on the security guard, the one that stood at the corner without moving.He regained his bearings and went further, stopping at the office’s middle, the midpoint, where the long black leather sofas lined.“It's time for you to handover,” he said, noting the
Chapter Eight
CHAPTER EIGHT They were required to wait for an hour on another sofa ten times more expensive than Linda's.It could've been exquisitely gold. But it wasn't. It was white but not like Linda's plain white.It was dove white with the decoration of two turtledoves.Tony recognized the emblem.“That's how it's done,” Linda said, relaxing her back on the couch, her arms resting on the side of the sofa's arm.Someone walked out the door, a female dressed rather too skimpy. But she bowed to Linda and she nodded back, still relaxed.“He needs time to prepare himself for every meeting,” her voice came up sharply.Tony surely must have heard stranger things. The world outside the mountains was really a different world.What did she mean by ‘he needs time to prepare himself?” Time to prepare himself for what? Was he going to run a marathon?The questions racked his brain.What sort of preparation would take a whole hour?He met Cassie's eyes and he could read the weariness in it. He felt pity
Another Humiliation
CHAPTER SEVEN.“Since when did you start mingling with thugs?” Linda, the secretary, eyed Cassie, disgustedly, contempt swelling in her neck with every step he took.“He's not a thug,” Cassie defended, trying to wrap her hands around his waist. He shrunk, moving slightly away.Embarrassed more due to her arms not being long enough than his adjusting, she moved with longer strides to a seat.She couldn't sit. There was no way for that.But the message was passed. Linda understood.“Have a seat,” she said, finally, crunching her nose as he sat on the white sofa. The very one she cherished and worshipped the most.She muttered a curse under her breath, more on Cassie and a little less than half of that for Tony.Then, she fell into silence.Cassie cleared her throat and shifted in her seat. It suddenly felt too hot. It was something in the air. She was sure of it.It made her sweat on her back. And made it itch. But she dared not scratch, not with Linda's eagle eyes on her“I've come to
Chapter Six
CHAPTER SIX “What?” Tony bawled with mouth agape, his stomach churning with the preposterous statement. He swallowed hard. No, he hadn't heard well. Did she just make fun of him? He shook his head, giving the stony feeling in his chest to melt away.“You're saying —”“That I believe I can help you write a script for,” she smiled warmly, her blazing red lip gloss reflecting the humour in her eyes.“You, see, I'm a script writer and movie director. I can do that for you,” she inserted her long nails into her curly hair.He felt his heart catch fire, a harsh fire that brewed a sore throat in her neck.The words were in his lips, sharp and sore, but he held them back, letting them stay put where they belonged.He shook his head and turned away, eyes downcast and lost of all its brightness but not missing the determination.That smell of soot from his home would not allow him to disappoint his parents even if he wanted to. It lurked around him like a ghost.Then the air suddenly began to
Chapter Five
CHAPTER FIVE “Technically, yes. I'm the CEO,” he said, looking tiredly at her, letting her last question slip by.He had no energy to explain himself to a woman ready to bicker at every given chance.He indeed recognized her.Who else but that lady in distress? Who else would pull such a near-stunt on him? In fact, who else in the world would begin a meeting with an insult?Who else but that brown haired pretty girl? He sighed again feeling a nagging headache's preparation as she got ready to speak again.“Then I'm asking, why are you left to wander the street like a mentally deranged sheep when you have such a wonderful company building over there?” She pursed her lips, her cheeks struggling to hide the bulging laughter.“I mean, if you're the CEO of this great company,” her hands went to the direction of the building he had taken steps away from.“You really should have a chauffeur. No, that's too grand. At least, a car,” she eyed his torn sneakers and made a face.“Yuk” she made
