Well, the handbag was a part of her looking stylish to work, she just had this urge to look the most professional that she can look.Arianna Steele checked the caller ID and smiled when she found out that it was Rebecca, just the friend she needed at this moment. She was really tired but excited at the same time. The company had its first meeting today, she had even thought the company was a sole proprietorship business until she met the shareholders today.Xavier was the face of the company and the highest shareholder, but he wasn’t running solo, he had not only convinced top business men to buy shares in his company but there were also well known investors who willingly put a lot of money into the business, not minding that it was still undergoing its trial period.“Hey girl,” Aria said excitedly as s
Identical Strangers: Once Upon An Empire The Lawyer's demand
Jimmy climbs downstairs mumbling to himself. His sleep had just been disturbed, he was also pissed that he had to cancel his plans as he had originally planned to go vacation in Florida, but now he can’t leave Las Vegas because of the case, he damn wanted to break the rule and see what officer George can do.Jimmy got down to the sitting room and noticed that the business lawyer was there with his father. He wondered what those two were up to now and what it had to do with him.“Hey pops,” he said bluntly and sat down, ignoring the lawyer completely like he wasn’t even there. He could have at least acknowledged him with a head nod or something, but he was just too much of a brat to do that.“Jimmy, the lawyer and some of the company executives had a private meeting and there is something that he needs you to know,” Mr. James queen announced.“A private meeting? You mean the board members had a private meeting behind my back? Why is that? Did they forget that I am the CEO of that compa
Identical Strangers: Once Upon An Empire Reconnect with your family
Aria walks in carefully to the CEO’s office, he was on screen time when she walked in and she didn’t know if she should have called first. Not like he wasn’t expecting her but maybe this was a bad time. And she had not even remembered to knock, maybe because she was growing familiar with the place and the person.He looked up when she got closer, “Hey… you got the files?” he asked softly.Aria was relieved that he wasn’t upset, but she should have known Xavier by now, why was she still seeing him in the same light as Jimmy? Xavier was nothing like Jimmy, he was a better man and person.“Yeah, I had them sorted out, I have also scheduled your next meeting and it will be held in exactly two hours from now,” she announced with a smile.“Oh, I guess I have to set an alarm then.” He replied as he took the files from her.“You don’t need to, I mean… I can be your alarm, not literally but yeah… I will remind you fifteen minutes before the meeting,” she rambled immediately, trying to correct
Identical Strangers: Once Upon An Empire The first court hearing
There were grumblings as the Queen family walked out of the courtroom. The case had been adjourned once again as the judge was unable to reach a decision. Well, it would have been quicker if Jimmy had just pleaded guilty, but he had held his stand to be not guilty of the crime. The prosecuting side also had no evidence aside from the hospital reports that proved she was sexually abused, but it could have been done by anyone else.Aside from all that, the judge was a crook and wanted to stretch the case till the highest bidder came to see him. The family of the victim were even more disappointed than Jimmy who was expecting the case to end today. This was the first hearing and the second one in a month away, who knows if it will be adjourned yet again and then he is not only stuck in the city but he also can't go back to being the CEO of Queen Enterprises.“Fuck everyone!!” Jimmy yelled as he walked out of the court, with his family chasing behind.“Mr. Queen, how did the case go?

Getting into the sitting room, he met his best friend with some ladies having a good time.Steve stood up the moment he saw him. “Hey man, I didn’t know you were coming over.” He said with a surprised look.“It is fine, it was an emergency decision.” Jimmy replied while looking around the place to see if it was a safe space.“You want something? A drink or a girl?” he asked teasingly.Jimmy chuckled. “No, I actually want some private time, you think you have got some to spare for your dude?” he asked, stylishly asking him to send away the ladies.“Okay, you heard the guy… chop-chop! Time to leave, ladies!” Steve announced immediately, discharging the wome
Identical Strangers: Once Upon An Empire Breaking the news
Jimmy walks into the house and meets his parents in the sitting room; His mother was busy reading a book as it helped calm her anxiety while his father was watching the news. They were both relieved to watch him walk in, although for different reasons.Susan was glad that he hadn’t dared the officer by leaving the city, she knew Jimmy was more than capable of doing that, while James was just glad that his son had come back, so now they could discuss fixing the company stock price which has been dwindling.“Hey Pops, Mom,” Jimmy said lightheartedly as he walked into the living room.“Jimmy? Where did you go?” his father asked immediately and lowered the volume of the television.“To see a friend, why? Is there a problem?” he asked less concernedly.“What do you mean, is there a problem? You know we are supposed to deal with the company issue soon or we will be going out of business in a few months,” James uttered.“Oh, that?

They needed to hire a few more cleaners as he had noticed the ones on duty were not efficient enough.While going through his contact list, he came across a number that was saved with just two flower emoji, he tried to recollect whose number it was and that’s when it occurred to him; it was Rebecca’s number, he was in a hurry when he saved it a few weeks back and he hadn’t remember to put a call across to her since that time.Xavier sighed and decided to make the phone call. He knew it was about the right time that he called her or he might forget again. Knowing Rebecca too well, she would still be awake by that time, probably scrolling through her social media accounts, chatting with her online friends.Xavier hesitated a bit before he dialed the number. It rang the first time and there was no answer, he wanted to
