Chapter 17 My Amazing Background
“Borj!” Now I was really looking at him with piercing eyes wanting to rip him apart.
“Young master, please. Let me explain,” Clyde pleaded.
“Let us go to your car and talk.” I motioned with my eyes for Clyde to follow me “As for you Borj, I’m not done yet!”
Of all things I hated, is getting in touch or connected with my family. Clyde is my grandfather’s personal assistant and driver. He has served in the family from since he turned adolescent with his father and mother serving in the old mansion of my grandfather as well. It would seem as if they had been our slaves with the years of service they gave. However, don't think of it in a bad way. Their family had been treated like a family from time in memorial. Their loyalty can be counted upon by my grandfather.
My maternal grandfather, Mr. Amory Donovan as you may be wondering, is the top notch business tycoon in the country. COUNTRY, yes. Not cit

Resh!I heard my name called out twice. First it was Bridda. Followed by Aaron, her cousin.I turned to them with the most innocent look I can master. "Yes?""Mind explaining what you were doing in that car?"I gave Bridda a foolish grin and scratched my head. "I am trying to convince BossStudio to take on the story I am writing. ""Woow! Big dreams man! You think they'd pay attention to a story from a nobody like you?" Here goes the greatest sarcasm of all times."There's no harm in trying," I responded to him looking him straight in the eyes."Damn! How dare you answer back Resh? Did I not tell you not to look straight at me? Bow your head!"I clenched my fist in my pocket trying to stop myself from throwing a punch right to his face. Bridda sensed my anger boiling and held to my hand."We just had lunch with Aaron's parents and we are on our way to attend a very important meeting in BossStudio actually. Please get us

I was back in Borj's office and he had a guilty worried look in his face. "Boss~~ ..." It sounded more like a whimper with a gay intonation. "Yes Borj, I know already. You didn't have a hand in this." "Phewww! Aint am I relieved!" He tried to wipe imaginary sweat on his forhead,"I really didn't know they were involved until Mister Clyde came today." "He gave this invitation by the way. It seems a grand masquerade ball will be held next week to announce the upcoming TV Series." Borj handed a green envelope bearing the Webtoon Office name on it. I reached out for the envelope and brought it to the couch. It held two tickets to the grand masquerade ball to be held in Grand Platinum Hotel, one of the most lavish 5 star hotel in the city. Basically, among the hotel chains of my grandfather. "It's a masquerade ball. Shall we attend then?" "You can." I told him disinterestedly.. "Why not you? Nobo

Bridda was on the phone when I called out "Dinner is ready!"It took her a few minutes and by the time she sat down, her parents were almost done."Is the food not good?" I asked Bridda as she was toying with her utensils."Uhumm.. It is okay," father-in-law clears his throat and replies. This family never admits how good my cooking is."I think I lost my appettite." Bridda sighed. "If only we can get an invitation, Grandma will be very pleased. She had put me and Aaron in a contest so as determine the next CEO for the company. She plans to make an announcement on her birthday next Friday. "So what do you need to do?" I asked her as I also took my seat and start to eat my dinner.Bridda was holding her fork but it just went in circles around her bowl."First the invitation. It will be a plus point to have an attendance in the masquerade ball. Of course, it will basically boil to getting an ad slot.

I woked up early enough to prepare breakfast so as not to repeat the same episode yesterday. Just when the table was ready, Bridda comes out rushing."Have breakfast first. It's ready.""Thanks. I have to rush to the office. I just got a call from my secretary that an envelope from BossStudio arrived. Bye!"I busied myself tidying up the kitchen sink while the elderly couple ate in utter silence. Then they stood up, one going to her room and the other taking a seat on the couch and turning on the TV for some sports channel.I was not done with the dishes yet when my phone rang."Sir, your wife is a mess right now."It was a staff from McLain Perfumery, Robert, an insider trusted by the old man."What happened?""She won't talk also.""OK, thank you for informing me. I will be there in a minute".....I was in Bridda's office in no time and was pointed by the staff to her office. I saw her

I felt heat rushing to my face and ears. Bridda must have been so happy to know there was a way in to the grand masquerade ball. I tried to get my phone from my pocket to call Borj that instant and also to cover up for such an awkward moment. "Yes Boss?!" The shrill voice at the other end was kind of loud I was afraid Bridda might have overheard. "What Boss? Borj, this is Resh! Why haven't you still saved my number?" "Oh oh, sorry. Wazzup Resh? " "Uhhmm... You mentioned your company is having a tie-up with BossStudio and that you were going to the grand masquerade ball and have an extra invitation." "Aren't you going?" He sounded puzzled. "I'm with Ms. Bridda right now," ...Yes, with a Ms., That's how I address my wife. "She lost her invitation. Maybe you can give to her your other invitation?" "Ahhh sure! Should I send it to her office?" "No..No...No.. She actually has an invitation but lost it in her office. It would

"Young Master..." Clyde's voice trailed off as someone seem to have taken the phone from him. "Resh." It was a deep low and commanding voice. "Yes, Mister Danovan?" I asked my grandfather with all formality although I really hated talking to him. "Please come to the mansion." "Why is that?" "I have a car for you." "I don't need a car Grandpa!" I got irritated and tongue slipped. "I mean, Sir." "Clyde will be come to pick you up." Tooot..Tooot.. Conversation done...and they don't even know where I was. Do they have a GPS tracker on me? After five minutes, my phone rang. "Yes Clyde?" "Where am I to fetch you Young Master?" OK good he is asking. So no tracker on me at all. "Come by the cafe in front of Bridda's office." "I am here Young Master." Wait... What? How did that happen? So I'm really being tracked? My doubt starts to increase. I left the cafe and when outside, I looke

So I'm here in the VIP room of Danovan Hospital, gawking at the old man on the bed who had just survived from a fatal heart attack. I think this is just a ploy of his to get me to agree to his plans. Although it's the first time, well there's always a first time to everything."Young Master," Clyde came in to the dim room and walked towards me. "You may leave now.""Thank you. Please update me when he is awake.""Have you spoken to everyone in the mansion? We are not to let anyone know of his condition.""Yes Young Master."I stood up and I was about to turn the knob of the door when I weak elderly voice called out."Resh." It was no longer commanding but making a plea."Resh."I walked to the old man and took hold of his hand."Sir, we will talk when you are feeling better. Please take a rest for now.""You are like your mother. Stubborn." He heaved a sigh and a tear rolled down the side of his left eye.I
