The Rise of Gabriel Whitewood

“Idiot! Why haven’t you washed my car?”Someone yelled at Gabriel, who had just finished cleaning the entire office for the day. He was certain that he had completed the work assigned to him, and it was his right to rest, but as a poor man, he barely had the right to make a choice.Gabriel looked up from where he had laid down to rest to see Daniel, the company’s manager. Before he could say anything, his face was met with a thunderous slap that rang through his ears and into his brain.“I have only a few minutes to leave this office, and my car better be spotless or I fire you!” The manager spat.It was only a few hours until Gabriel’s special day, which was his twenty-fifth birthday and his second wedding anniversary with his wife, Lilly. He had promised himself that no one, including Daniel, could ruin his day.So he did nothing but smile at Daniel, holding onto his burning cheeks. Daniel felt Gabriel was disrespecting him, and he had no right to smile at him; after all, Gabriel wa

At first, it all felt like a dream, and Gabriel begged to wake up. He had had enough bad news for the day and decided it was best not to live in a fantasy, but then his phone rang. It was the strange phone number that had sent the messages earlier. Hesitantly, he picked it.“Who is this?” Gabriel asked angrily.“Your father has asked to see you today in the office. Happy twenty-fifth birthday, sir.” The man said and Gabriel burst out laughing.His father did not own an office, and for as long as he could remember, when he was not ill, he worked menial jobs. In fact, it was insulting if this was Daniel’s prank, because Daniel was well aware of his father’s terminal illness.“My father owns no office, and he could not even own one when he was up and running, so you should stop making this joke right now because it is not funny. That man is ill and about to die; pay him some respect and get him off this joke, Daniel.” Gabriel raised his voice.“He wants you at the office where you work,

Gabriel entered the store, hoping to find a beautiful dress for Lily. Since he beat Daniel to the dress, the opportunity to win her back was great, and he was ready to capitalize on it. She was his wife, and he wasn’t going to give up easily.When he got to the counter, he met a blonde lady dressed in a bright red suit. She was on a phone call with her back to him. Gabriel took a deep breath, praying that she would go lighter on him, but the universe had other plans for him.“Hello, I am here to buy the best dress in this store,” he told the lady who was on the phone. The lady turned around abruptly and hissed when she saw Gabriel.“What were you saying, Mr. Whitewood?” she inquired, and Gabriel attempted to compose himself, knowing his father was on the phone.He could have easily spoken and obtained whatever he desired, but he wanted to know if he would be treated as trash. Since he had been rejected everywhere, he prepared himself for what was to come. He waited until the lady fini

“What the hell are you saying? That is my card, and my father’s name is Mr. Whitewood,” Gabriel said, to which the lady sneered. She suspected he was a scammer because she expected the son of the richest man to be more presentable, accompanied by delegates, and draped in expensive jewelry, but Gabriel only had a bag on his shoulder and low-quality attire for a Whitewood.She picked up the phone right away and called security, while Gabriel continued to prove his identity, but she ignored his words.“You can check my information. My face, perhaps.” He said, and she scoffed, pushing Gabriel’s hand away from the counter.“The identity of young master Whitewood will be revealed tonight, so if you do not say what you have done to him, you will be kissing the gray walls of the prison every day, you riffraff.” “I am Gabriel Whitewood!” He yelled, pulling out a large sum of money from his bag and splashing it on her, but she did not care. This raised her suspicions more.People started to m
