“You have four options. Number one, walk back, number two run back, number three crawl back, number four, sit here bemoaning your fate and wait for someone to pass by and help you. All very good options I must say.” The system said in its female AI voice.

Alvin rolled his eyes and hissed, dismissing the ridiculous words of the system. He sighed again and began the long trek back.

“It's been twenty minutes, why am I not there yet?” He whispered, his face pinched in a frown.

“It's because you're literally crawling at a snail pace. If you ran with half the speed you came with, you would have arrived in your room by now.” The system chipped in again.

“Shut up! I don't want to hear your voice again.” Alvin immediately snapped.

“Yes master. But you should consider returning the way you came.”

“I said shut it. Return the way I came my ass! Didn't you see the pitiable condition of my body after indulging in such madness?” He asked angrily.

  • MIREILLE

    Alvin smiled, hoping he looked warm enough to dispel whatever suspicions she might hold towards him due to the multiple rumors swirling around. She didn't bow like others, her shoulders were squared, jaw held high, having that aristocratic pride radiating from her in waves.Alvin’s eyes slightly narrowed. “Miss Jonathan, the way you stare at me, do you have a misunderstanding about me? Or have we clashed before?” Mireille barely suppressed an eye roll. Although the movement was so brief, the vigilant Alvin still caught it before she stopped herself. “How do you want me to look at you, chairman Kent?” She took a step closer, and bent slightly to bring her face closer to Alvin's. “Like this?”Alvin was stunned by her boldness. She moved away the next second, and he gasped in anger. Murong Wuque grabbed his wrist, stopping him from saying anything. He hissed and kept quiet. She stepped back and shook her head. “If you expect me to pander to you and flatter you, I'm sorry, you got th

    Natalie wasn't the only one stunned, the rest were. Even Elena had dropped her current task to listen properly. “This.. This is indeed a very tough question.” She replied, her brows scrunched up in deep thoughts. After three minutes of silence, she shook her head. “I might obey the first time, due to panic and desperation. However, harming artists to protect my interest is something I will never do. If the situation turns dire, and there's no way out, I will have to find the chairman and come clean. His reaction will determine how things proceed.”Alvin nodded, sucking his teeth. “What if the chairman ends up being dismissive, and arrests you instead after coming clean? Or even twists the narrative to make you seem evil and ungrateful.”“Then I would have done my part. No matter how I get punished, at least my heart will be light. I would just need to find ways to send my family to safety. If having a good life involves hurting others, it's probably not worth it.”Alvin turned to Mu

  • QUESTIONS THAT FEELS LIKE DEATH TRAPS

    It was late evening when the shareholders were finally allowed to leave. Most returned the money they took, recorded a video apologizing to employees who they had hurt at one time or another, and wrote a statement of understanding which was signed and also thumbprinted, left under the able care of Alvin. The only exceptions were Lily Wen, Katarina and Director Britney. Because the amount they stole was large, they were unable to provide it at the spot. So the public security bureau had to come take them away, pending when they figured out a suitable payment plan. Director Britney was already calling in favors to come up with the amount. The funniest thing was that none of them agreed to sell their shares as they initially threatened, knowing that the shares were precious and would only keep appreciating over time. Alvin made every single shareholder sign away their management and voting rights, only letting them sit back and collect dividends every month. However, deep inside

    This time Miss. Gretchen was the first person to check her phone, and she gasped. Somehow, a video clip of Director Britney threatening to drag Alvin to every bureau known to man surfaced online with the tag “SWE's board of directors threathen to hurt the chairman if he doesn't drop the embezzlement charges against them. Insider suspects Lily Wen is Mr. Britney’s secret lover.” “Leaked news suggests that over twenty billion have been stolen by a combined efforts of the executives, with Lily Wen diverting more than half the amount to her secret boyfriend’s company, Dolcy studios. Is the entertainment industry about to experience a power change?” “It's over. It's over. Yes I'm finished.” Lily collapsed to the floor, totally losing her mind. With everything going on, if she gets fired by SW entertainment, no company would dare hire her again, talk more of giving her an important post. If she was unable to turn this situation around, she would become destitute, saying a permanent b

    The people around were confused. No matter what threat they used on Alvin, he remained unyielding. Lily stepped forward. “Chairman Kent. I think we should calm down and reason like adults. Even if you had the means to purchase their shares…which I know you don't…such a huge amount of shares moving hands would cause a disturbance in the stock market which might have a domino effect. All the subsidiaries under our SW might also suffer the consequence. The best course of action now…” “And who gave a criminal the right to speak here?” Murong Wuque interrupted. Lily turned to him, stunned. Others were equally shocked. His voice had been calm and low, but when it fell, it seemed like swords landing on their heads. Lily was especially resentful. Everything happening now stemmed from Murong Wuque. Alvin wouldn't have launched an investigation if not for his stupid comments. “And why do you keep interrupting? Everyone here has a connection to SW. Why are you… a stranger… here causing

    Back in the office“Lily alone diverted twelve billion, fifteen million, seven hundred and eighty thousand. Director Britney, excluding the gains from the poached movies and stars used with low pay, the cash diverted to you came up to a billion. For Kensington, yours wasn't much, five hundred million, the Pierce family, two hundred million excluding bribes received from Lily and her spawns, the list goes on and on.”Murong Wuque motioned to Tiffany who accepted a stack of documents from him. He had created folders for everyone guilty of embezzlement, in addition to the amounts they owe SW and the things they have done. Lily's file was especially enormous, followed by Katarina and Director Britney. Their pictures were included, and at the back tagged index, records of their other crimes and scandals which had nothing to do with SW, but had severe legal and social implications were added, as if trying to pressure them using the evidence collected. “Lily, you have three days to gather
