"You could use it to start a business of your own." Stacey continued. she just needed him to get away from from this place.Hearing Stacey's kind words, Arthur only got annoyed. He wasted two freaking years of his life, and she made him drop out of college. She didn't promise him anything, but he expected something in return from her, and it was definitely not money.Arthur could feel his heart break more and more, with every second he was in that room with her. Frowning at Arthur's silence Stacey looked at him with an annoyed and pitiful expression."Arthur….you're missing out on a deal of your lifetime…make it two million dollars….I'm trying to help you have a good life here?" Stacey said coldly, maintaining her serious expression.The least she could do was give him the two million dollars, so he could start his new life. That's what she thought.Softly chuckling Arthur decided to get something he's been holding after watching the video out of his chest. "You're a cheap person…no d
Harold shifted his gaze to Victoria and Lawrence, Stacey's parents. Making them put their heads down in shame, and fear."Poor attitude, just like her mom and dad I see….now she's trying to refuse the marriage?" Harold said coldly, he slowly shifted his cold gaze back to Stacey.Not even intimidated a bit with her grandpa's glare, Stacey replied nonchalantly, "I'm not refusing the marriage…there are a lot of boys from good families…." Before she could finish talking Mrs. Gwendolyn Roth interrupted. "Stacey Roth, you agreed to this marriage….yes or no?"Stacey rolled her eyes in irritation, scanned everyone's reaction, and replied. "I agreed to divorce Arthur…..I didn't agree to marry Caine. You can't expect me to marry a person who doesn't respect women, Grandma!" Stacey said nonchalantly.Feeling disrespected by Stacey's attitude, Mrs Grace Duhamel stood up to leave, "Well this deal is off Roth's family….we'll be on our way." "Indeed, I will enjoy seeing Rincs Corp and Roth Industri
"….Master Stark, are you alright?" Jared humbly asked, sounding concerned, His face gaining redness at the thought of something happening to Arthur. "Master Arthur, are you in trouble at that house? Just say the word and we'll wipe out that entire family." "Jared calm down, I'm alright Jared, I kind of sprained my ankle, when I was coming down the stairs." Arthur lied. Knowing damn well, what his butler will do to the Roths' if he finds out about what happened to him. "Jared I don't need you to come here, just send someone okay?" Arthur ordered, hanging up the cellphone.After Jared hung up the cellphone, an old man walked to him. The man looked like he was sixty years old, if not younger.After spotting the old man walking to him, Jared bowed respectively, "Master Stark, you're here?" "Yes, you told me my grandson is coming back today, I've decided to come and welcome him, even though he hates me!" The man said, sounding sad."Well...the preparations for your grandson's arrival are
Caine touched his cheek, which now had a hand print and had now turned red. 'Just you wait bitch, I'll teach you a lesson.' Caine thought, letting out a smile on the outside, but inside he was cursing Stacey and he just wanted to slap her back."I'll be downstairs my Lady." Caine said nonchalantly as if the slap was nothing, he turned around and walked out.Courtney's mouth was still hanging open, still surprised by Stacey's sudden outburst and slap on Caines cheek. "What was that?" Courtney asked. Stacey took a deep breath and sat down on the bed. "He deserves that and a lot more worse!" Stacey said bitterly. "Okay…umm why?" Courtney asked, her eyes focused on Stacey. "If it was me I would have understood, cause I really hate that guy…but you….he's your future husband." "I don't want to marry him. Gwendolyn is threatening to harm Arthur if I don't marry that Idiot." Stacey said, monitoring her childhood friend's reaction, she continued, "I had no choice but to make Arthur sign the
The ride was quiet for some time with no one talking to each other, Arthur's thoughts were on a train of thoughts, he was still thinking about Stacey's betrayal. A part of him couldn't believe she would do something like that, she would never sacrifice her dignity for anything. 'The video must have been fake, I think the person who sent me the video, faked it…' Arthur' thought to himself. 'I wish it was fake, she didn't deny it, so the video is definitely real….fuck! what am I doing thinking about that heartbreaking woman, I need to just forget her.' Arthur thought to himself, looking out of the window. He couldn't deny that he still loved Stacey.Miss Dawn had her eyes on him the whole ride. He looked miserable, she wondered if it's because of his wife? With a sigh, Dawn put her hand on Arthur's arm. "May I ask you something?" Miss Dawn's question snapped Arthur out of his thoughts.Flashing a slight smile at her, Arthur shook his head in approval," Sure I don't mind."Retracting he
A knock on the door had Arthur' stand up from his bed to open the door, standing outside were Jared and his grandfather. "Grandfather, Jared," Arthur' greeted his grandfather and Jared with a surprised expression on his face.Christian slightly smiled as he walked inside Arthur's bedroom with Jared following behind.On his hand Christian was carrying a black card, and a gold plated cell phone, with an S symbol on it."Morning grandson." Christian greeted once he sat down. Arthur' remained standing in his pajamas, Jared stood next to Christian."Morning," Arthur' greeted back.***Meanwhile at the Roths' Villa. Since Arthur left Victoria had to hire a maid to take care of the house and cook food, she also had to hire a butler to take the kids to school. When arthur' was there she never dared to hire a maid or a butler, in fact she fired the maids and the butler's just so she could make Arthur do the work.Breakfast felt unlively today, as there was no Arthur to mock, it was one of the
"Arthur you're not ready?" Dawn asked, walking inside the bedroom, with a worried expression on her face, knowing Arthur was late to the party and Christian will blame her, cause she is his secretary.Sighing exasperatedly, dawn briefly glanced at Loraine before shifting her gaze back to Arthur. "The guests have been waiting for you for some time, master Arthur. You should get ready now!" Dawn said, walking towards the closet, she opened it and took out a tuxedo suit and threw it on the bed.Rolling her eyes agitatedly at the sight of Dawn, Loraine walked towards Arthur, she gave him a peck on the cheeks and walked out. "Arthur, I'll be downstairs.""Okay see ya." Arthur replied, picking up the tuxedo suit from the bed. Sighing, Arthur eyed Dawn with a slightly disappointed look. "Not my type of clothes." Arthur complained. He prefered something casual, the tuxedo will only gather a lot of attention for him.Shrugging her shoulders Dawn replied, "You grandfather's orders not mine." Da
Christian made sure to introduce Arthur to all of his business partners. As Arthur will need to know all of them if he's going to run the consortium."Nice meeting you, Ms. Winston." Arthur said as he firmly shook an old-aged woman's hand."It's my pleasure to meet you, Mr. Stark." Ms. Winston replied, smiling nonchalantly.Ms. Winston glanced at Dawn briefly as she was standing next to Arthur. "Is this your wife Mr stark? She is gorgeous." "No, she is not my wife, she is my secretary," Arthur replied nonchalantly. Why would someone think dawn is his wife? Sure "Well just look at you, don't you have the best things, Mr. Stark? A beautiful woman like her you make your secretary." Ms. Winston teasingly said, as she looked at Dawn, feeling relieved, now she could ask what she wanted to ask. She shifted her gaze back to Arthur and asked: "By the way, I have a granddaughter, and she'd love to meet you, Mr. Stark." Ms. Winston said with a wide smile.'Old ladies, is that all they think ab
