Unforeseen Violence
Brian didn’t flinch, nor did he break his silence.He maintained close eye contact with Drew, something that should have given the young man a bit of a concern.But the latter was too arrogant, and that blinded his sense of judgment.“Why are you quiet? Are you scared?” He laughed so hard that the rest of the team joined him.“He is definitely scared of you, Drew!” Cleo stated, taking a few steps forward.“Don’t you see how muscular you are? With just a punch, you can send him sprawling to the ground…” She sniggered, turning to Brian with disdain sparkling in her eyes.“Drew will beat you like a child. You will go running back to your mother’s arms…”“I don’t think his mum is still alive…” Brick remarked, staring at Brian with mockery smeared on his face.“Oh…” Lara scoffed, her eyes on Brian.“Then he will be running back to his father, I guess…” She suggested, taking a deep breath.“But unfortunately…” She paused just to be sure Brian was paying attention.“I don’t think Daddy would
Not Fear
Brian was almost certain he had instilled fear in them, especially with their silence and the concern he saw in their eyes.But he was wrong, and the next few seconds proved it.Cleo was the first to burst into laughter, and the rest followed, starting with Lara.They laughed until they had their fill, grabbing their chests.Brian’s expression dropped instantly, his visage lacking even the tiniest amount of color.“He almost had me until he said he was going to choose another team…” Drew remarked, still basking in amusement.“That was a good joke, Mr. Regal…” He continued with a wry smile on his face.“But you know better than to threaten us. We are the best team you can ever work with, and your father would never agree to take this opportunity away from us. You are not him, and I doubt that you will ever be…”“Seriously?” Lara huffed, folding her arms while she glared at Brian.“We haven’t even started, and you have already begun to threaten to fire us. Is this how you intend to run
Unworthy Heir
“Not at all, Mr. Regal. Why would I even do that?” Patrick was quick to deny what was almost looking like an accusation, especially with the uncertainty crawling inside him.“I don’t know why they have decided to bring disgrace to this company with their disgusting attitudes…” He turned to the team members, his rage still very much palpable.“That’s because he is not who we were expecting to see, Mr. Rostova…” Lara blurted, assuming the role of the team's most active and disgruntled member.“The only reason why we are still standing here…” She continued, rolling her eyes, this time palpably at Brian.“… is because we wouldn’t want to give the wrong impression to his father. That’s all…” She was very bold with her statement, maintaining her twisted expression.Soon, her eyes met Brian's, and she gave him another look that suggested dismissal.“Maybe Mr. Regal here should go back to his City and remain there. He doesn’t need to be here in Lakeville to monitor things. We can be giving hi
Still Undeserving
“I am a software developer…”“I am in charge of both audio and visual engineering…”Brian moved his eyes from one of the young men to the other, then he finally resolved to face the first who had spoken.“It seems I would be working more with you…” He said, maintaining the subtle smile on his face.“Why is that?” The young man asked rudely, seeming like he was about to get aggressive.“Why don’t you work hand in hand with Cyril, or even Brick? Their jobs are not complex…” He stated, pointing to the others.He saw the disapproval on their faces, but it didn’t matter, as long as he was going to get Brian off his path.Brian grunted inwardly, but it was already too late.The anger had already begun to brew inside him, hot as coal, and as cold as ice.“What makes you think I am incapable of handling a complex part of this project?” He asked, discreetly gritting his teeth.“First…” The young man seemed like he had already foreseen the question and had prepared the answer he was about to ut
All Pesky
Silence persisted, but just when Patrick was starting to feel like they had come to their senses, Lara’s voice broke out, like the sound of a cannon, exploding after a long period of battle had ended.“I didn’t realize that his son had taken over the company…” She remarked, turning to face Brian.Even though the disdain flashing in her eyes had diminished, there was still little or no regard for the young man standing before her.“I just hope that he will be as good as his father. With all the stories I have heard about Mr. Regal, I don’t think that anyone would be able to achieve the things he has achieved within the last two years…”“Exactly, Lara…” The lady standing beside her nodded, then she took a deep breath.She was her accomplice, and they looked so much like each other, probably because they shared the same character traits.“Anyways…” She scoffed, taking a few steps forward.She made sure that there was enough space between her and Brian, then she extended her right hand to
Cold Reception
Everyone stood up the moment Brian and Patrick walked into the room, a majority of them adjusting their outfits.One after the other, they bowed, particularly showing their respect for their Boss.“Everyone…” Patrick stood before them, barely three meters in front of Brian.“This is Mr. Regal. The man we have been hoping to see…” He gestured to Brian, but he didn’t get the expectation he had hoped for.The murmuring that followed the next second made his smile vanish, and a curious expression took over.All the eyes of the six members of the team standing before him had turned to Brian, and the looks on their faces didn’t suggest that they were impressed.Those who were bold enough to whisper began to speak to each other, almost certain that the distance between them was enough to barricade the sound of their voices.“Is this the real Mr. Regal or is this his son?”“Maybe this is his son…”“There is no way this is the billionaire we have been waiting for…”All three of the ladies stan
