“Quincy.” She says my name somberly. “Just know that my entire life depends on you being the CEO.”
“Are you okay?” I ask her in all seriousness. “Do you need help?”
“The only help I need from you right now is for you to be the CEO of fantasy.” She says and then she ends the call.
Well, that doesn’t sound good.
.............
She is joking, right?
She must be joking.
I spend the rest of the night preparing for my visit to the company tomorrow. I know I just got discharged from the hospital and I should rest more, but Davina needs me to do this.
And what’s important to her, is fo
“Quincy Daniels?” She asks and I gulp involuntarily.“Yes? Are you Iris?” I ask and I reach out my hands for a handshake, but she only stares at it and chuckles lightly.“Davina made a huge mistake.” She says as she turns back around and begins to walk towards her car...............“Wait, hold up!” I say as I follow her across the street.I look back briefly at my father and he waves goodbye to me. “Good luck!” He says loudly and then begins to walk towards his own car.“Don’t give me orders.” She says and I stop myself from speaking another word.When she reaches her car, she whips
I follow Iris as she walks past a counter towards the elevator. She gives a small smile to the guy behind the huge marble counter not far from the elevator, and he smiles back.But wait, I know this guy.The bastard is Daniel Sims.Is this psycho following me everywhere I go?.............He does not recognize me at first, it must be the suit.But then he looks at my face once more and a shocked expression crosses his face.“No way.” He says to himself.“Well, I’d be damned, what are you doing here, Quincy?” He asks me and I scoff.“Quincy, hurry.&
He begins to pack the documents back into his bag without looking at me.“You, Mr. Daniels may be the CEO for the company now, but you are certainly not my CEO.” He says as he places the last paper in his black bag.“Mr. Chan.” I say to him and he scoffs.“Go work at a coffee shop, kid.” His words causes me to snap..............The amount of anger that rushes through me as the words leaves his lips is abounding.He stands up from the chair and nods at Iris who has her face in her hand, clearly uncomfortable with what’s happening.I hate when I get mad like this, because I become a spectator and my emotions take full control
“Hi, Quincy.” I recognize the voice instantly, and all my long forgotten fears comes flooding into me.“Miss me?” Her voice triggers something in me and I begin to have a panic attack.I can’t stop my breathing, I need help.I feel like I’m dying.“Help.” I try to say but it barely makes it out of my throat...............I fall to ground slowly and I drop my phone. I place my hand on my chest, trying to calm myself down, but it does not work.What’s happening to me?I haven’t had panic attacks in ages.“Oh, my goodnes
“You don’t understand.” I say and Jimmy sits in a chair not far from us, ready to hear what I have to say.“Kate is her name, and we dated for only two weeks. She had been stalking me for the past four years, and I finally managed to shake her off when I filed in for a retraining order.” I say and Iris holds her chin, clearly interested.“She didn’t stop there, Kate also killed the last girl I dated after her.” I say and Jimmy jaw drops..............“Oh, wow.” Iris says and she begins to pace around.“Was she not arrested?” Jimmy asks and I laugh.“I wish, she staged the whole thing as suicide and the whole case was dropped. It w
“Will Mr. Daniels be speaking?” The lady dares Iris by asking again, and my eyes land on her finally.It’s like she is in a spotlight, everyone is looking at her.She and I suddenly lock eyes and she winks.It’s Kate, my psycho ex girlfriend..............“Kate.” I say under my breath.“Young lady, who are you?” Iris asks her and she smirks.“Our young CEO there should know me, I’m unforgettable.” She says deviously.Iris looks to me, and I guess she notices the expression on my face. Shock mixed with intense fear.She then looks back to Kate. “Identity yourself by showing you
I look back to her and just as I am about to ask her how she knows, she takes out her phone. “Can I have a picture with you real quick?”How does she know me? I have not even signed the contract yet so I can the CEO.“Sure.” I say with a smile, as I eye her suspiciously. ..........We take the picture and she looks at it admiringly. “Thank you so much, I’m rooting for you.” She says and then she walks away.What was that all about?Iris soon walks in and everyone eyes land on her. Her presence is immediately felt, and it changes the dynamic of the room.Eyes of admiration, scorn, jealousy, envy, desire, all look her way as s
But I just have one problem now, and that is Kate.She is in town and she has found me. I know her to be someone that doesn’t give up easily, if at all. And I strongly believe that she is not done yet.Which is exactly why I’m driving to the gun shop right now to buy me the strongest gun that they have..............“Hello, how may I help you today?” A small structured girl asks me. She is clearly a grown lady, but her body frame is just small.I am currently in the gun shop, or should I say store?This place is huge and I didn’t expect this many people to be here. It’s so busy.“I would like to purchase a gun.” I say with a nervous smile.
