The man behind the Artistic smile ย ย ย A punch is all that it takes
Within a split second, Nick punched his face of Hughes without any thought.Chelsaโs eyes widened seeing this. She could hardly believe what he did just now. everything happened so fast that she couldnโt see it.It took her some moment to process the words into her mind.โSheโs an employee, not a low-life servant!โ Nick stated, removing his hand from Hughes's face.Blood was dripping down from Hughes's nose, reaching up to his lips.His eyes turned all red from anger.โIt hurts!โ he cried out, covering his face with his hands. To stop the blood from flowing out he took out his handkerchief and covered his face with it.โForgive me, but I couldnโt stop myself from doing that.โ Nick apologized, backing away.โCause you deserved that for behaving like that with her, and insulting her as a low-life servant.โโIโll make you pay for this! Iโll do it!โ Hughes shouted.Chelsa stepped forward about to speak up. But Nick didnโt give her the chance to do it.He took her by the hand and dragged h

Seeing this they both went their separate ways feeling embarrassed.He gave a strange look to them.โIs everything alright?โ he asked them.Chelsa cleared her throat. Nick went up to his seat without saying anything else.After some minutes pass, the door opens with a loud bang this time.Chelsa and everyone present in the room heard the noise and became alert.Hughes stepped inside the door wearing a grumpy look on his face. His nose had been bandaged and he came in while placing his hands on his pockets.โIs Lucy here?โ he yelled, looking here and there throughout the room.This time, Zoe got up from his seat and walked over to the door, and saw Hughes standing.He had a file in his hand.โUmโฆโฆโ.โWhat might you be here for?โ he asked.โWhere is Lucy? I need to talk to her! I am her cousin's brother, Hughes Campbell.โโOh, Iโll go and call her right away, please wait for a little.โโAnd whatโs your business?โ.Hughes gave a death glare.โI donโt need to say about it to you.โNick he

Nick narrowed his eyes at Hughes, his face showing no expressions.โYes, I called you a liar. You have any problem?โ he retorted in a sarcastic tone which pissed off Hughes more than he had imagined.Hughes was about to explode, turning into a bomb at any moment without any triggers.Hughes heaved a deep sigh and went all silent.He paused without speaking at all.Suddenly, he gave an icy gaze to Nick.โI have decided!โ.He looked away.โIโm going to kick you out of this office, no matter what it takes me to.โChelsaโs eyes widened hearing the word Kick out.She walked up to Nick and tugged at his wrists.โWhy donโt you apologize? This isnโt going to work like this.โโApologies, maybe heโll let us off.โHughes could hear what she whispered to Nick.He smirked and placed his hands in his pockets.โI donโt understand whatโs going on here at all!โ Lucy admitted, stepping forward.โWhoโs lying here and whoโs telling the truth? I am confused.โHenry nods in approval.โYes, I donโt understa

Hughes took the phone from the manโs hand and then turned on the video recording.He showed it to others.After seeing it everyoneโs eyes widened.Chelsaโs throat went dry as sweats formed over her forehead.Henry watched the video very clearly, and after a while, he concluded.โI hope everything is clear to you at the moment!โ Hughes stated, staring at Nick and Chelsa.Lucy clenched her fists and went over to her side of Nick.She stared at his face. He could hardly keep looking her eye to eye. His words got stuck in his throat.โIโฆall of this-โ.Lucy slapped him across the face without any thought on her mind.โI wasnโt expecting you to do this at all.โโYou ruined my reputation over nothing.โโIโm disappointed!โ.Chelsa looked at Nick with a horrified expression on her face.โBecause of me, he had to be slapped.โโEverything is my fault.โโThen your brother was telling the truth all this while?

Hughes's eyes widened hearing Nickโs statement.โYou, scum!โ he rushed to Nickโs side right away and grabbed him by the collar.โYou are still trying to blame me. I am the one who harassed her? Do you have any proof for your words?โ.โYou should get your eyes checked. Cause, I wasnโt harassing her at all.โNick glanced sideways and looked at the man whom he brought with him.โHe was with her the entire time, right? He must have seen you harassing her. Didnโt you?โ.Hughes glanced at the man who brought the footage.His eyes stopped him from talking anything else further.โIโฆ.โ.โSpeak up! You saw him harassing her, right?โ Nick pointed at him, stabbing a finger.Hughes's throat went dry as he was sweating a little also.Zoe came from behind and held onto the manโs hand to stop him from moving.โConfess the truth! We want to hear it.โLucy, Henry, and Chelsa both looked in the manโs direction waiting to hear his response.That man lowered his eyes away, took off his glasses, and wiped

During the afternoon Lucy received a call from someone. While she was talking, Nick went to give her a file and heard something from far away.โYes, Grandpa. Iโm listening.โโOh, you are talking about what happened with Brother Hughes.โShe went silent.โIโm much apologetic about their behaviors. Please try to understand the situation and then make any decision please.โโI know, they were at fault. He shouldnโt have acted violently. Iโam apologizing in their stead. Please listen to me.โNick gripped onto the file tightly and turned away leaving.โCan you please spare their jobs only? This is the only thing Iโm telling you to consider for them.โโThis my request Grandpa. Please donโt refuse.โโI should go to the main mansion today?โ.โBut-โ.โOkay, Iโll be there as soon as office is over.โShe sighs and sets down her phone on the table, leaning her head onto the chair.Her mind goes blank whenever she thinks about whatโs going to happen in the evening.โI shouldโve tried much harder to

After that, evening came.Lucy took the car and left for home. Henry didnโt get a chance to talk with her before the office was over.Lucy had called Robin that she might be late today, and not to worry.She reached the main house in a while.The moment she stepped inside the house, she felt a shiver running down her back.โI can only imagine all of them against me.โ โGod knows whatโs going to happen to me.โShe inhaled a deep breath and stepped forward with her head held high. "I have to stay optimistic even in bad times." She approached the big hall where the others gather for important talks.Ever since childhood, she always hated to be around the so-called adults who never acted like adults in the first place.They always hated their family and never liked it when they used to come for family gatherings.Her siblings never used to play with her and mostly avoided her.โWhy do they have to create trouble for me all the time just because they donโt like me?โ.Suddenly, one of the

Some hours later, everyone arrives at the hall, sitting side by side.Lucy was late as she was washing off her shirt. She was on the way, wiping off the shirt with her handkerchief as it was still wet.โAh, the stain has still here. What am I going to do?โ.โGuess, this is not coming out any moment now.โShe reached the hall and everyone gave an intense stare at her.She glanced sideways and pairs of eyes followed her.Her grandpa sat in the middle with his pair of glasses with a grumpy face.There was a seat abandoned in the middle, making it seem like was only for her as everyone was already sitting.She glanced at it and turns to her grandpa.โAhโฆ.good evening Grand-โ.โHave a seat first! Then weโll talk!โ he replied before letting her complete her sentence.She nods lightly and approached the seat and sat down slowly.She kept her head lowered and placed her hands on her knees. One maid appeared behind grandpa.On the right side, sat Grayโs mom and dad, then Oliviaโs mom and dad,

Stop daydreaming.โRobin turns to his dad with an worried face.โWhat? No, Iโm not thinking about anything like that.โโThatโs written all over your face.

His dad and Robin appeared sitting in the back of the car, smoking a cigar.โHmโฆ.you know it yourself how much of an amount you are telling me to invest in her, arenโt you?โ.โThatโll cost you a lot.โ โAre you willing to pay for it?โ.Robin looked at him with a straightforward gaze.โI know, but Iโm still going to take the risk anyway.โโHmโฆ..โ."You may never see her again. Will you still risk it?" his eyes were serious when he looked at Robin. Robin takes a deep breath, "I don't care. As long as she is happy, as long as she wins and earns her reputation, I don't care.""I want her to achieve her goal. I'm ready to pay any price." Richard clicked his tongue, "I hate brainless monkey's like you. Hard to think you are my son." โAlright then.โโI donโt mind helping you out.โโAs long as you get to divorce her in the end, I donโt care.โโI will,โ Robin said, taking a deep breath.โGood then.
