"You need to get them to make you the back swan!! Do they need to be paid before they make you the lead? I don't mind bribing the heads but you need to be the lead. I need you to take on that role and become more famous. Only then would our plans be quick in being set into motion"" I'm trying my best Ethan. You think I haven't? I have tried my cards and still doing so yet no results seem to be forthcoming from my efforts"" Don't tell me that babe. I trust you. You trust me too right? Send the contact of the head to me. I'm sure he'd change his mind on making you the lead. I don't mind whatever amount he might request for. We just need to make this happen"" I'll email you his contact then. But what if it doesn't work? I'm not trying to sound pessimistic but what if he doesn't accept your offer. What would we do then?"" Email me his address as well, I'll have my boys finish the deal if he doesn't accept the wash way" " Good morning sir" an employee greeted as he passed him.He ende
Dante felt at ease being in her presence. It had been so long he felt that way.She didn't seem to know whom he was. Even if she did, she was so calm and reserved that she didn't throw herself at him at any instance, like most girls would have If they were to come across him anywhere, not to talk of being up close and personal with her."So tell me Mrs Andrea, what books are you here for? Who knows, I might know where they are" he volunteered.He wasn't lying because he knew he would be able to fulfill the promise. The library was one of the places be frequented. It was not always in use by numerous people as only few people came to buy books from it. And most of them were old men.Old men didn't throw themselves at celebrities they see, so it has been all good."I'm here as an employee. I have to turnover times ten of the profit this library makes before the month ends" she said with optimism in her eyes." What?" Dante's assistant muttered and stared at the library and then at her
Andrea couldn't tell what was happening.She must have gotten the report about her daughter being bullied at school, why then was she battling the girl instead of condoling her on the abuses she must have passed through at the hands of her bullies. Claudia walked in from the door. Her face bore a disappointed angry graze and she just stood at her daughter's back."You mean to tell me that this is my wrist watch?" She asked." Yes mother. Her school proprietor returned it this evening. This little pain in the butt stole the wrist watch and on the course of her poor friends selling it, they were nabbed by the security of the jewelry house" " I never said they were my friends!! Did you hear me telling you that they are my friends? The proprietor wouldn't have said that too" Xyrielle protested." Will you keep your tiny piece of dirty muffin mouth shut?"" So you mean to tell me that your daughter is the thief, and not.... " Her voice trailed away and she looked over at Andrea's directi
Claudia waited for her daughter to finish from the room and return.She hadn't expected the little girl to be the perpetrator of the stealing incident.What was she to tell her brother and what would be do if he were to hear about it.He'd blow hot and lash at her if he were to hear about the false accusation, and with his desire which was beginning to lust after the girl, there was no gainsaying how he'd take her side."Mom, I'm very very sorry. I never imagined something of this sort would happen"" How did you get to know?" She shot at her." Her proprietor called me. A group of girls were about selling the wrist watch at a jewelry shop but had been held by the security. The wrist watch was found to be an original and they had no coherent explanation about where they had gotten it from"" And?... "" The school was called because they had their Identity cards with them in their bagpacks. They confessed to haven taken the wrist watch from Xyrielle" " Return the wrist watch to the p
Xyrielle didn't come out for breakfast. The table has been empty when Andre dressed up for work and came out.She wore a simple dress with fault shoes, and packed her hair in a messy bun on top her head.Maybe she came out for breakfast late because she had vacuum cleaned their room as well as the corridors. Or perhaps it was because she had gotten dressed before she came out for breakfast.She ate alone and in silence. There was an array of foods filling the dining table but no one to share them with.Not even her brother who was a foodie.She thought about her mother and her failing health. She hadn't been in communication with them for the past days she had come to the Eduardo mansion.It had eluded her mind. She wanted to call them now that she recalled but on a second thought, she decided against it.What was she going to say? What was she going to do? She had nothing yet and couldn't ask her mother to proceed to a hospital knowing well that she didn't have anything on her she'd
"I told you Lee. I am who I think I am. No one comes close. No one compares!!" Niklas boastfully says to his secretary as he danced about in front of him while he sat back in his chair and watched." I'm still on shock boss. The almighty Dante Daniel? The celebrity designer from Italy? Five times winner of the global best designer awards? You were able to make him sign a contract to partner with us? It feels like a fucking dream to me. It fucking feels like a dream"" Wake up then Lee. Wake up. I fucking made it happen. I fucking did"Mr Lee continued to pace about the room." But I heard from HR that he gave a condition before he accepted the contract. Did you accept his conditions as well?"" Those don't matter. What matters is that I got him to sign a contract with the company. The fucking board of directors can't fuck with me anymore. They won't even be able to"The alarm on his table began to ring and he picked up his suit." Lead the way to the boardroom, I can't wait to see the
"" Oh well, what are you going to do? You're clearly the one in the recording!! The CEO of EMC Conglomerates caught in a scandal? Oh gracious me!!"" Look, our stocks have began to drop and netizens are trending a hashtag to boycott our products because of the rude behavior of the CEO" another board member chirped in.Niklas sat in utter dismay and watched while his secretary, had a feeling of sheer horror plastered all over his own face.How quick the tables turned, the perpetrator didn't even allow him to get his congratulations for making Dante Daniel agree to join their company as a partner for his upcoming event.He looked at his aunt Claudia who sat quietly and listening to the jabs being thrown at him.She looked composed but he knew her well enough and knew she was secretly rejoicing in her heart because he just became an enemy of the public. His cousin Ethan was on his phone as the noise from the arguments between the two opposing parties of the board members intensified.He
"Took Xyrielle to where? What are you talking about?"" Took Xyrielle, what did you tell her that made her leave. What did you do to her that made her leave the house?"" I said nothing to her. I haven't even met up with her since yesterday. What's there for me to say to her that'd get her missing?"" You didn't shout at her for........ " She wanted to continue but abruptly ended it the second she saw Niklas walking into the house."Xyrielle is missing and that is the bottom line" she blurted out almost as if the exact words she had wanted to got stuck at her neck." She's missing?" Andrea repeated, glancing up the stairs. That explained it and perhaps also explained the reason for her absence."So what are we going to do?" She added."What we are going to do? Don't you get it? You're the prime suspect of this. If there's anyone that needs to do something, then it'd have to be you. Don't go about acting innocent, you're also the cause"Andrea shaked her head but contained her thoughts
