"Care to explain what's going on here?" Allison asked of Mr Klein. "I was just showing these two out, Secretary Banks. This lady came for an interview, but unfortunately she didn't make the cut. Now she's trying to cause trouble here," Mr Klein said worriedly. He wasn't sure if Secretary Banks bought his cheap excuse. Allison looked over to Warren who was looking irritated. "Miss Banks, so you mind meeting us in your office for a while?" Warren asked bluntly.When he heard this, Jackson Klein's eyes became bloodshot. Who did this pauper think he was to talk to the secretary of the big boss of Galaxy Tech Lane like that? "What are you still doing here? It's in your best interest to leave right now, or else you will regret it!" Jackson warned him.Before Warren could respond, Jackson could feel his cheeks burst into pain as a hand struck it. Allison couldn't handle Jackson's arrogant attitude anymore. He even dared to b

"The interview I will conduct with you will be unbiased and fair. That also means that I will not let your relationship with Mr Cole influence my decision in any way. You may have the necessary qualities, but what we need more than quality and experience, is character. I have to warn you, I am not an easy person to please, so I will not go easy on you," Allison Banks warned Yvonne.  Yvonne had a resolute expression on her face as she said, "I don't expect anything less than that. I promise that if my interview isn't satisfactory, I will never bother the staff or management team of Galaxy Tech Lane ever again." Warren smiled when he saw this. He was pleasantly surprised at the way Allison took charge of the situation. He decided it would be best if he left Allison in charge of Galaxy Tech Lane. She had the charisma of an excellent manager.  Warren looked at Allison and signaled to her to make Yvonne excuse them. Allison understood what Warren was try

Warren sat and waited for almost an hour until he finally saw the familiar figure of Yvonne Grant exiting the elevator. She had a wide smile on her face and the moment she saw Warren, she ran towards him. Warren was surprised when he felt Yvonne's hand touching his. "Thank you so much for allowing me to meet with Miss Allison Banks. If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't have gotten this job offer," Yvonne said.  Warren was surprised at her sudden gesture. Although Yvonne and Warren attended the same classes sometimes, he didn't expect her to show her gratitude so openly to him. It was really unexpected for him. "Miss Grant, I assume you got the job," Warren said. He didn't know what else to say, in fear of revealing the kind of relationship he shared with Allison. If people knew that he and Allison were close, some would jump to wrong conclusions and think that he might be Allison's toy boy or something. "I just finished my interview with Miss Banks.

"And what are you so smug about?" Yvonne joked when she saw the smile on Warren's face.  "Nothing really, I just feel blessed to have a beautiful girl sticking me for lunch. Anyone in my shoes would be happy about it, right?" Warren said playfully. Although Yvonne was beautiful and had an alluring body figure, Warren didn't feel particularly excited by her. That's why he didn't feel too bad for teasing her. When she heard his words, Yvonne blushed. She never thought that Warren would be so bold as to openly flirt with her. This caught her off guard and she didn't know how to respond.  "Just keep quiet, or else I will rescind the invite," Yvonne said. That was the only response she could come up with at the time. Warren smiled and pressed his finger against his lips. He was motioning that he would keep his mouth shut. Yvonne smiled when she saw that. Although Warren was poor, he was easy to get along with. Yvonne only talked to Warren earlier

"Warren are you going to allow this woman to talk about you like that?" Yvonne asked irritated. "She's entitled to her own opinion," Warren said. He felt as if Jennifer was trampling all over his dignity. It was easy for him to defend himself against Jennifer, but when he was reminded of the previous 6 months they spent together, his heart soften. "I didn't know you were such a pitiful person to allow someone to talk down to you like that. It seems like the first impression I had of you was wrong," Yvonne said disappointed. She admired Warren when he stood up for her earlier to Jackson Klein and with Secretary Banks. He showed a lot of courage, but now he was as meek as a lamb."I'm sorry Miss Grant, to drag you into this mess. Jennifer could you please leave," Warren said. Yvonne hit the nail on the head. She was right. Although he was still deeply in love with Jennifer, that didn't gave her the right to disrespect him like that. Especially in front

"It is alright, as long as you give me your word," Yvonne said. At that moment, a phone call was made from outside of the Majestic Oriental Kitchen. Jennifer had a mischievous smile on her face when she dropped the phone call. Charles said that he would be there in 15 minutes and Jennifer was pretty much relishing in that moment. The restaurant would get what they were due for embarrassing her like that. Unbeknownst to them, Warren and Yvonne enjoyed the desert they were offered by the waitress. After all, who would say no, since it was on the house. They talked and laughed for half an hour or so when they suddenly heard the screeching of tires outside the restaurant. When she saw the convoy, Yvonne started to tremble. The sight of the 5 black Mercedes Benz C-Class were all too familiar to her. "It's all over now! Charles Chamberlain is here. This restaurant, your life and mine, it is all over," Yvonne said while she was trembling. She knew the

Everyone was looking at Charles with fear in their eyes. Now Warren has done it. It would be impossible for him to escape with his life. Especially when there were 10 guards blocking the exits. Warren just forfeited his own life when he broke Charles's wrist.  Charles was screaming in agony at that moment. He didn't know what happened or how Warren managed to break his wrist so easily. He knew he had to make Warren pay, even if it was the last thing he would do.  Yvonne was pale where she stood. She never expected Warren to be so crazy as to openly defy Charles and to top it off, he even broke his wrist. Warren was a dead man. Plain and simple.  "Everyone leave immediately if you don't want to witness a murder!" Charles shouted. At the warning of his words people were scattering everywhere. Everyone headed toward their nearest exit and the bodyguards made way for them to leave. Even Yvonne and Jennifer hurried out of the restaurant. The

Charles smiled when he saw Warren's pitiful face.  "You seemed to enjoy yourself a lot back there, didn't you? I would like to let them go, but unfortunately my hands are tight, or broken I should say," Charles joked. He would finally get his revenge on Warren.  "I will give you the opportunity to say your goodbye to your uncle. Your aunt will follow him into the abyss. Start talking, you don't have much time," Charles said.  Warren sobbed. He felt as if his whole world came crashing to the ground. Charles had his uncle and aunt's lives in his hands and there was nothing that Warren could do about it.  "Charles, I beg you. If you want money, I can give you 500 million dollars right now. I will give up all my assets, just spare their lives!" Warren cried anxiously.  Charles laughed hysterically at his words.  "Despair will really drive you insane. Do you think you have enough money to pay for their lives? Y

"Samuel, I'm not in the mood for games. I'm warning you, get moving!"  Warren's words were ice cold. But who could blame him. Samuel knew Warren wasn't thinking straight. His mind was clouded by rage. If he allowed Warren to go after Charles, that would mean he allowed Warren to walk into his own death. That was something Samuel couldn't allow.  "Warren, I don't know what you're going through and I don't know what you're feeling right now, but..." "If you don't know what I'm feeling, then why are you standing between myself and Charles? Are you going to side with him? If so, I will not spare your life!" Warren interrupted Samuel before he could finish his sentence.  Samuel knew it would be impossible to reason with Warren. After all, he watched his uncle and aunt murdered in HD. While Warren was grieving, Charles was probably out there having the time of his life. Who would be able to withstand something like that.  "Warren

"It will be all expenses paid. You know the life insurance that my aunt and uncle had will pay out a hefty sum. It will be enough to cover travel expenses as well as accommodation and food for the three of us. Just say yes," Warren said as he tried to convince Samuel and Henry to join him."Are the girls in Wellington pretty?" Samuel joked."The prettiest in the world. That much I can guarantee," Warren said. The three of them burst out into laughter. It was good for Samuel to see his friend trying to keep it together. He was worried that the pain would change Warren. Warren's laughter soon turned solemn. He looked at Samuel with tears forming in his eyes. Although he tried to remain strong, the wound in his heart was too deep. "Samuel, I don't want to be alone at the house. I don't know how I will feel when I step foot in that yard. I know what I'm asking from you is selfish, but I don't have anyone else left. You are the only pe
