The room was filled with loud voices, But Isaac kept on staring at the figure of Peace that stood like a statue beside the chair.
She took a deep breath, the words were getting too harsh. Isaac parted his lips to speak, but before he could say anything he heard a voice that was chilling and emotionless, Isaac too felt the chills.
“Did I allow any of you to speak?”
Isaac was dumbfounded when he saw who was speaking. It was Peace who had finally decided to open her sealed lips.
“We are the board (members).”
“Shh—I haven’t finished yet!” She cut his se

Alex took Peace back to the mansion. Peace sat in the front seat. She had closed her eyes, trying to rest for a while. Alex hadn’t noticed that, as he looked around at Peace and found her fast asleep, he pressed his lips together and then unfastened his seatbelt. He sat back and rested his head on the headrest. Peace’s eyes were closed. Alex glanced in her direction and stared at her with a shattered look in his eyes.“Sigh!” Alex looked away. He gave out a tired groan. His eyes glimpsed the bandage on Peace’s foot. His eyes boiled up with a hostile emotion and he harshly smacked the steering wheel.Peace jolted and opened her eyes quickly. She stared directly at Alex, who was not in an excellent mood.“What Happened?” She asked in an innocent tone.

“How dare she?!”The files that were previously laying on Isaac’s table landed on the floor when he pushed them away in anger.His tie was dangling down loosely. While a few shirt buttons were unbuttoned roughly, making the rise and fall of his chest prominent. His forehead was knitted into a dispelling expression. His ego was hurt, it was the first time someone had walked over him like that.“I will make you pay for it,” Isaac spoke while grinding his teeth. His eyes flashed towards his cell phone on the table. He picked it up and dialed a number. The other side picked up the phone quite quickly. Isaac stepped away from the mess, his face still holding the disdain.“I have something to discuss with you, Let’s

The guy who came to greet him was tall, he was in his late twenties with an attractive personality and stunning features. His name was Nash Saturn, the Vice President of Stronghold Constructions.

Peace was deep in her sleep but a familiar scent filled her nostrils. The memory attached to the scent was not pleasant at all and that was visible because her eyebrows crumpled suddenly and cold slowly crept through her bones. It was as if she had realized something, Her eyelashes trembled and Peace suddenly jerked up from her sleep and sat up in the bed with a defensive expression, her forehead wet with droplets of cold sweats,She wanted to speak but her tongue was too heavy to utter even a single word. She whimpered when she saw Paul standing at the foot of her bed, he had a dreamy expression in his eyes but as soon as PEace’s eyes met his, he changed his expression into a blank one.“I was wondering who was in the room, I didn’t realize our little princess was home,” Paul spoke in a caring tone.

It was very unlikely for him to be at such places but today was not an ordinary day. He looked around for the guy who had called him to pick up Peace. On his way towards the bar stand, he felt a tug on his shirt from behind.

The lights were dazzling and the music was loud. At the edge of the crowd, On a bar chair sat Peace with a drunk expression. A wine glass twirling between her fingers as she swayed around dizzily.

Peace gulped in the one in a go and shouted.“One more!” She giggled after shouting.“Miss, you are drunk, You should stop drinking and go home” He spoke with concern.“I don’t want to! get me another drink.”He frowned a little, but he was helpless, so he started making her another drink.“Hah!

The temperature of the room had fallen a few degrees, Everyone except for Issac was standing and was trembling. Issac’s hand was on his forehead as he looked at the papers in his hands. The veins on his forehead were almost popping out from anger and his eyes had sunken.“How did this happen?” Asked Issac in a cold and sharp tone, Many sucked in the air and averted their gaze because they had no idea of what had happened. Jermy, who was standing beside Issac’s table, was the only one who looked oddly calm.“YOu bought the stocks on a whim, it has nothing to do with them.” HE spoke up. Issac’s eyebrow lifted and he looked at Jeremy with a deadly gaze.“Get out all of you!” he was speechless and knew that if he hadn’t acted on his impulses he would have
