“Don’t act so precarious with us, Mr. Elon. You don’t know the trouble we can cause you and your family.” Daren stated.“You were the obnoxious person on the phone this morning,” Blake said, looking at Daren. “Did I wrong you in another life?”“It’s people like yourself who think you are better than the rest of us, with your wealth and prestige. How could a family like Elon become more critical than the bureaucracy of the Organization? How dare a meer ant to have the audacity to call himself a Saint? What person as young as you are to think you have the power of the Heavens and Earth at your becking call? At most, you have the power of a Master if you actually obtained such power. How can you think you could be more than me, a GrandMaster at your age?” Daren stated.“Now I get it. You’re jealous of my accomplishments. If you can’t be a Saint, then no one can. I hurt your ego.” Blake said and began to laugh at Daren.“HOW DARE YOU!” Daren yelled and released his GrandMaster aura into t
“I’ll have to convene with the supervisors and inform them of your final terms. When we return, I’ll have the assaults disbanded and publicly apologize for the harassment Elon Conglomerate was receiving.” Mr. Golder stated as sweat came to his brow.“That’s all I wish to hear,” Blake said, and the environment returned to the conference room. The two men were still unconscious as if they had never left.“Daren, call everyone and withdraw our attacks.” Mr. Golder said, looking at the disarrayed man beside him.Following his supervisor’s advice, the assault on Elon Conglomerate was put to an end. Blake looked at Sam and Eric and released some Qi into them to help them recover. When the two men awoke, they saw Daren in dirty clothing and Mr. Golder pale and sweaty. Not knowing what had happened, they looked towards Blake with confused expressions, only to see him with no expression.“If this will be all, I’ll take my leave. Contact me when you have arranged the meeting with your superiors
When the documents were signed, he handed back the tablet. “That will be all.”She left the office and returned to her desk, and the day went by with no problems. Seeing it getting close to lunch, she knocked on the CEO’s door to see him immersed in his computer.“Sir, it’s lunchtime. Would you like me to bring you something from the cafeteria?” Saline asked, smiling.“A turkey on rye and water will do,” Kevin replied, not taking his head from the screen.Saline left him to his work and went to the cafeteria to gather her and her boss’s meal.When Saline left the room, Kevin’s phone erupted in rings. Not paying attention, he answered to a noisy background making it hard to hear the other person.“I’m sorry, but I can’t hear you,” Kevin said directly.“What about now, you ungrateful son of a bitch?” Kevin’s grandfather asked.“With an attitude like that, it’s a wonder the Ross family is becoming bankrupt. Is that the bank foreclosing on the estate?” Kevin asked. It was why he was on th
“Well, well, hasn’t the Ross family fallen,” Sylvia stated when she noticed Yonda.“Sylvia? What are you doing here?” Yonda asked surprisingly.“I should be asking you that same question, seeing I work here,” Sylvia replied, eyeing the woman. They were always on opposing sides when meeting at clubs or galas.“I’m here with my grandfather to see the CEO and try to quell the misunderstanding between the Ross and Elon families,” Yonda explained, feeling slightly underdressed in Sylvia’s presence.“From my understanding, it derived from your cousin James Ross. When he went to propose to Claire Elon, the wife of the head of the Elon family, you can now see where this will lead, don’t you?” Sylvia stated with her arms crossed, loving the awkward position Yonda was in.Both grandfather and granddaughter frowned when they heard the news. They didn’t know the details and thought it was a small matter of Kevin leaving the Carlson family and entering the Elon family for revenge. Hearing that the
“I believe I can answer that question. With one name, James Ross.” Kevin said, sitting at his desk. “If my younger brother didn’t intrude into the Elon affairs, the Ross family would have never fallen into my hands, so I guess I should thank him for all his strenuous efforts. You had always looked down on me because of my mother, thinking I would inherit the Ross family over my younger stepbrother. That is why I was sold to the Carlson family as a live-in-son-in-law, even changing my last name to accommodate your ambition to sever all ties with me. Look now, grandfather, for your worst nightmare has come true; I now own the Ross family.”All the strain and stress were too much for the old man, and he began to stagger back and grabbed to his chest as his eyes rolled back. Knowing this would happen, Kevin motioned for Silvia to make the call. Yonda seeing her grandfather collapse, was frightened.“Grandfather!”Soon Paramedics rushed into the room, who were on standby. Sylvia was holdin
“YOU SON OF A BITCH! I WILL GET YOU IF IT’S THE LAST THING I DO!” Charles then yelled, then as soon as he was about to lunge at Kevin, the door was busted open, and the security men entered, restraining him.Kevin had already alerted the security with an alarm button under his desk before revealing the transactions giving the security team enough time to get there. With the shouting, the team didn’t hesitate when entering the room.“Wow, this is more interesting than the dramas on T.V.,” Sylvia said, placing a cake into her mouth.“Gentlemen, please escort these fine men out of the building. Yonda, stay. I have a business proposition for you.” Kevin then said.The security men led the two men out of the office and closed the door. Leaving Kevin with Sylvia eating her cakes and drinking tea, Silvia next to her also enjoying the pastries, and Yonda fidgeting her fingers in nervousness.“Yonda, come; have a seat here,” Kevin said, motioning to the chair before the desk.Yonda did as she
“It’s true I barely know him. But what’s to know? He’s handsome, takes good care of his women, and is wealthy. If I’m not mistaken, he’s a good seed.’ Earlier that day at the Suite. “We need to get back to work. I don’t know how much paperwork has piled up.” Betty said, taking a bite of her breakfast. “Is there no one to relieve you two of your duties?” Claire asked. “I have been training someone to take over the position when we move to the Capital and start another branch of Lotus Suites,” Betty said after swallowing her food. “Then it’s settled. Tabby, call the front desk and tell them that Betty and Carol will accompany me today.” Claire stated, drinking her coffee. “But, the work….” Betty tried to protest. “Are you denying your boss’s wife? Besides, we must take you to two somewhere to train with your new strength.” Claire stated. “Where is that?” Carol asked. “Why the gym, of course,” Claire replied sweetly. They arranged for Helen Kingsley to bring them around town. He
“Oh? Then why don’t you two live in Lotus Suites? It would be more convenient for you two.” Claire asked and stated. “It was because of Mr. Leastwise; I didn’t want Carol to live in such a place, and after he left, we sort of stayed in our apartment,” Betty explained. “Well, we have the whole floor to ourselves now that we have moved in. Why don’t you three move into the adjoining Suites?” Claire asked. Shocked over the request, all three began to protest. “We can’t do such a thing, can we? “ Carol asked first. “Claire, we can’t intrude; it’s the floor for the Elon family,” Betty said. “Don’t be ridiculous. Didn’t we just establish you are Blake’s women? Who better than to live close to him, besides it’s only temporary until we stabilize you two and then move to the Capital.” Claire, Betty, and Carol arrived at Solo’s Gym; when Helen parked the car, she entered after them. The four ladies arranged for new outfits at the small store in the gym and brought them to the changing are
