The Monarch's Retribution

Chapter 10 - Patrick's Outrage

-Hilton Restaurant, Stormwind City.

Inside the VIP room of a very luxurious restaurant, two people of dignified bearing were sitting opposite each other. On top of the table that separated them from each other rested several luxurious and exotic dishes, with two bottles of exotic red wine accompanying the dishes.

"This is definitely the end of the road for Charlotte Clinton."

"I have thoroughly cornered her, and for her to escape her predicament she has no choice but to marry me." one of the two people dining with each other said in a very confident and satisfied tone.

The person who spoke was a dashing young man with sleek black hair. He was dressed in an expensive grey suit with an equally expensive Breguet wristwatch worth around twenty thousand dollars adorning his left wrist.

This young man was of course Patrick Schick, the current heir to the Schick Group.

"As expected of the current heir to the Schick Group! Who can resist your charms?!" the second person replied.

He was quite handsome and also dressed in a very expensive attire, signifying that his background was quite lofty. It was expected however, as he would not be able to dine with Patrick if he was not from an impressive background.

"Thank you Victor." Patrick said happily while pouring himself a drink from a bottle of the exotic red wine.

The handsome young man now recognized as Victor simply smiled in response before repeating Patrick's actions.

Together, the two of them dined and laughed happily with each other without worrying about anything else.

Patrick himself was incredibly pleased with himself. He was on the verge of finally achieving what he had deemed close to impossible after all.

No matter how one looked at it, Charlotte was an incredibly beautiful lady. He had desired her from the very first day he met her in a conference meeting.

Alas, all his efforts to get her with him were disregarded effortlessly by her, but this only made him desire her more. He was not discouraged in the slightest, and felt that it was only a matter of time before he finally won her over.

However, it only took him a few months to see that he was incredibly wrong. It was like a bucket of ice cold water was poured on him.

Seeing that his efforts were no longer yielding results, Patrick decided to take drastic measures.

The Clinton Group was barely worth $30 million, which was nothing worth mentioning compared to the $150 million that the Schick Group worth.

Using his influence as the heir of the Schick Group, he discreetly oppressed the Clinton Group by pressuring their clients and cutting off the supply of various important business resources. With his position as the heir to the Schick Group, no one dared to go against his orders, so he succeeded in driving the Clinton Group into a corner.

The rest was simple, and it was only a matter of time before Charlotte agreed to receive his $20 million injection; after all she needed to save the company. By that time, victory would be completely his.

He would then slowly savour Charlotte's stunning body, before ravishing her till she begged for mercy.

Patrick was still lost in his lascivious thoughts when his pricey phone rang loudly, snapping him out of his thoughts.

He did not even bother to glance at the caller ID before answering the phone call irritatedly, visibly annoyed at the fact that his lustful thoughts were disrupted.

"Speak." Patrick ordered in a cold tone without even waiting for the caller to speak.

"Mr. Patrick, there has been a major development in the Clinton Group!" the caller exclaimed worriedly.

"What do you mean?" Patrick asked, his tone incredibly harsh. He had immediately identified the caller as the spy he planted in the Clinton Group, whose job was to inform him of any major developments in the Clinton Group.

"I don't know the details, but the Clinton Group has received a $25 million dollar injection!" the caller said, his voice still laced with shock.

"What did you say?" Patrick asked disbelievingly?

"The whole company is in a festive mood. There are even rumors of a restructuring of the company!" the caller continued heatedly, not even bothering to listen to Patrick's words.

"Mr. Patrick, i can see someone coming towards me. I will call you when there is a new major development. Good day." the caller concluded before disconnecting the phone call.

Patrick originally had an indifferent expression on his face when he answered the phone call, but as the call went on the expression on Patrick's face became frigid. By the time the call was over, the expression on Patrick's face was incredibly ugly.

"WHO DARES?!" Patrick yelled angrily before smashing his $5,000 phone on the wall. The incredibly expensive phone landed right on the wall beside Victor before breaking to pieces.

Victor, who was sipping his wine calmly, trembled in shock when the phone shattered into fragments.

"WHO DARES TO GO AGAINST MY ORDERS?!" Patrick bellowed furiously as he threw several of the luxurious and exquisite dishes madly in a bid to vent his anger.

Victor who stood calmly and out of Patrick's way as he vented his anger already knew the reason for Patrick's fury. He heard the full conversation on the phone after all.

It took over twenty minutes of Patrick destroying costly things in the VIP room before he could remotely control his anger.

"One year!" Patrick stated angrily.

"One year of meticulous planning gone down the drain!" Patrick hollered angrily.

Fury was an understatement for how he was feeling at the moment. He was just at the verge of achieving victory when this mysterious helper appeared in the Clinton Group, thwarting all his plans.

It was extremely aggravating.

"Enjoy it while it lasts now, Charlotte!" Patrick yelled as he took a huge swig of red wine directly from the bottle.

"I, Patrick Schick will never accept defeat!"

"Just you wait, I will make you pay for this!" Patrick declared indignantly.
