Chapter 71

Denzel’s phone started to ring again as he raced along the road. He grabbed the phone and switched it to silent mode. This was the type of publicity he didn’t need. Not when he was about to push the company to greater heights.Damn, Kate!She had promised not to say anything. She had promised.He took a sharp bend and almost hit a careless teenager.“Look where you are going!” he shouted. One scandal was enough for him.“Fuck you!” the rude teenage boy shouted back.Denzel didn’t want another drama. A simple chiding of the boy would be misinterpreted. He ignored the boy and drove on.***Kate was surprised by the repeated knockings on her door. She was still in bed and she wondered if it was Annie. “Annie left for work at the break of dawn,” she told herself.She yawned and lifted herself from the bed. The knocking continued.“Kate, I know you’re inside!”She stopped in her tired walk as she recognized the voice.What was Denzel doing at her place?She glanced at her body. “A moment p

The waters were relatively calmer than the noises in his head. He stared at the waters as waves crashed into one another and waters left the boundary of their bodies and crept into the shore.He had always fancied himself to be like the sea. He was calm, and when troubled, others drowned. Women also loved to see him creeping into their rooms.Today, he realized the sea could be turbulent as waves could crash against themselves. Kate was like the unsuspecting hot water flowing into the cool sea. Now, she drenched him and rose.Kate had always been different and it was that quality in her that attracted him. She wasn’t as attractive as most women he had met but it was the fire in her that interested him.He had forgotten that fire devoured.He was destroyed.Before he became the CEO of CULID, he had no worries. He didn’t have to be responsible for the lives of thousands, directly or otherwise. He didn’t even have to think. All he did was wake up. That was all he cared about doing.He to

Everyone stopped in their flurry.The security man who stood in front of the large entrance door at CULID BEVERAGES returned to his duty post. The board members stopped their loud murmurs and the workers stopped their uncaught whispers and gossip.A black Sedan stopped in the early hours of the morning and McNeil wheeled into the company he had managed for years.Kim met him in the lobby.“Sir, Mr. Hobbs isn’t here,” she informed him.He stopped rolling his wheelchair for a moment. “I didn’t come here to see him. Get the board members to meet with me in the board room. I’m a man of little patience.”Kim raced in her heels.The board room used to be a library. McNeil was a man who believed it was important for all to be allowed to read. The library had varieties of books, ranging from different topics, and it was accessible to all. During the weekends, the security man let students use the library.Several years ago, he felt the need for a board, and he had carefully selected members a

Edna Kane could pass for a model. She was almost six feet tall and had lean bones. Her chest carried two small peanut-sized breasts and two hands could wrap her entire waist. Edna had a great sense of fashion and was never caught unfresh.When she heard she would be in charge of Denzel’s dressing for a month, she picked up the contract happily.Kim knew Edna. They had attended the same High School. The previous day, Denzel showed up at work, much to her relief.A closed-door meeting was held by Kim, Edna and Stan. That was when Edna heard the news.“Ray Dentley? It’s unbelievable.”“Yes, I thought so too,” Stan answered.“What do we do?”“There’s no way we can stop him from meeting with shareholders or convince shareholders not to sell their shares – it may be too late to do that. The only thing we can do is prepare.”“Prepare?”“Prepare to win the election. Most of the board members are beginning to appreciate Denzel’s effort. Coupled with the fact that Kate Reeves debunked the claim

“I can no longer continue working with you, sir. My life and reputation are constantly in danger for reasons I don’t know…and it hurts me to think that you don’t even know what I can do.” Kate’s voice played in his voicemail as Ross drove him back to work. “I’ve done my best to debunk the rumors…for my sake and yours. I want to be far away from you. Don’t look for me…and simple advice, watch Kim. She was the only person who knew about the incident.”He sat in stillness. Maybe she was right. It was best to let her be.His black Mercedes Benz drove through downtown and stopped in front of CULID BEVERAGES. White lights from camera flashes filled his face.Edna stood behind them and smiled. Although she had set them up, she knew soon enough that Denzel would become a celebrity. Ross guided the small crowd that gathered and Denzel walked in. Thomas uploaded a picture of him strolling in with the caption: A morning with CULID beverage keeps you active and smart.A few minutes later, Eva sen

Ray Dantley didn’t need to appear unopposed. He carried himself with an air of confidence. He had the support of most of the board members and his shares neared thirty percent. It was still a few weeks before the next board meeting and he was sure no one knew about his plans.Eva had willingly given him her shares. He had convinced a few others too.CULID was going to be his, he thought. He imagined what he would do the day he became CEO. Denzel would never have the humility to remain at a lower position and then climb back to challenge him. No one would be able to.He strolled into the company with a grin. Denzel’s plan had worked fine. The promotion concert had increased the demand of their products by thirty five percent. He had one challenge. He wasn’t as young as Denzel. Neither did he measure up with good looks.He knew the demand would reduce a little with Denzel’s removal, but it was nothing he couldn’t handled.He had planned a closed door meeting with Mr. Rogers. He was als

The silence was deafening.Members of the board trooped into the board room. Ray Dantley didn’t share the same worries as Denzel. He glanced at the topmost seat and grinned. It was soon to be his. During the second meeting arranged by the former CEO, McNeil, he discussed cooperating with the CEO and pushing the company above its limit. McNeil had also lauded his son’s grand achievement with the promotion concert and obliged them to keep supporting him. Ray found the right time to speak.“I want to contest the seat of CEO,” he stood up and declared.Whispers and murmurs traveled the length of the table.McNeil frowned. “The seat is incontestable,” he answered. “What’s this about, Ray?”“The company policy clearly states that any board member with at least thirty percent shares can contest the seat…and the next President will be chosen by a board election.”Ray saw McNeil’s face grow pale. Denzel was like a wall, absorbing the shock without any expression. Or maybe he knew, Ray thought.

When Denzel informed Karen that he was coming to the penthouse, she walked into the bathroom and remained under the shower in anticipation of his arrival.She had waited for him all week. She knew he was busy with the company and he would return to her when he was done. She was ready to satisfy him.She pinched her nipples and twisted them until they became hard. She loosened her hair under the shower and let the water flow through them to her body until she was cold.When she heard the firm tap on the front door, she turned off the shower and stepped out of the bathroom. When she opened the door, Denzel breezed in.Denzel had tried to get drunk, but even after downing five bottles, all he got was a headache. He slumped on the bed and for a moment, he forgot about Karen. The event of the morning played in his head and he could see Raymond Dantley grinning. He could imagine the gossip going around the company and the next day, the entire city of New York would hear.He exhaled and sat

A couple of half-naked girls sat around him smoking.Denzel walked into the building he had been instructed to meet Raash in and he tried to find him amidst the crowd.Raash spotted him and whispered to Aarav.Denzel flowed into the crowd and avoided getting hit by the excited crowd. He edged on and moved to the drinking slab at the corner of the bar.“A glass,” he told the bartender who nodded. He arrived with a cup of drink later. Denzel gulped it down his parched throat and ticked his cup, indicating he wanted more. The bartender poured more.When Denzel downed the second cup, he noticed Aarav standing beside him. He dropped the cup.“Where’s Raash?”“Up.” He pointed. Denzel followed the direction of his finger and when he saw Raash, he waved.He started to take out some money from his pocket when Aarav stopped him. “Raash own h

Ray knew better than underestimating McNeil. He knew what the old man could do to get his company back again. As CEO, McNeil had taken decisions that stupefied him, and he had done everything possible to push CULID beverages to the height they stood on presently.Ray had served loyally at his side for years with the hope that he would become the next President after his boss. Then Denzel who had never stepped foot into the premises of the company took his position.When Denzel had come up with the promotion concert, Ray had known it was McNeil’s idea.
