Chapter 8 - Chapter 8

(fuck these shareholders...all nonsense...none of these plans are actually going to work...)

I gesture Liam to stand up present before I actually kill someone, he stands up hesitantly and starts presenting, and my focus shifts to him, fuck I want to claim him so bad...

So today I'll start by....

He starts his presentation and everyone listens, taking notes and my eyes fall on him...not Liam but Zachary...a major shareholder who looks extra careful today...

Stop.

I say and everything turns to look at me, Liam stops his presentation and a look of confusion comes on his face

What's the matter?

Asked a shareholder...

The problem here...

Liam...why don't you tell us about what you found while making these reports...some about the missing slots?

Everyone looks confused, some shift uncomfortably in their seats but one...one stands out...he's my target..

Liam seems confused but obliged,

He starts stating what the found

So last night..I found almost 30 empty slots in these sheets which indicates that money has been transferred out of these accounts on 30 different occasions, it's most likely that these activities are being conducted from outside the mansion...

Everyone looks stunned except one...bingo,

I stand up and walk towards that particular person, Zachary,

Did you hear what he said Zachary?

I ask him while he sits there pretending to not know what I'm talking about,

I pull out my gun and load it Infront of him and I see visible sweat forming on his face,

Tsk pathetic

W..what are you talking about Mr Ford?

He asks, clearly trying to gaslight me

Do you really think I'm that stupid Mr Zach?

You should at least hide your traces better

It's true that after Liam told me about these transactions I did some digging, this idiot didn't even delete the evidence,

No no Mr Ford I didn't do it! I swear! I don't-

Bang

Pathetic loser, I fire my gun and make a hole straight through his head,

Fucking bastard thought he could lie to me for so long..

I turn my attention to the rest of the room which was dead silent, I look towards Liam expecting him to be scared but he wasn't...just shocked, that's new...

(Has he seen this before?)

I sit back in my chair,

Continue.

I tell Liam and he does...

After the presentation is over we get the rest of the meeting over with, and leave the meeting room

Boss is everything alright? We heard gunshots!

Louise said in a panic, this may or may not have been the third person I've killed this month but who can blame me? Those fuckers had it coming,

Louise looks around me to see the pool of blood and Zachary lying dead on the floor

Have it cleaned up,

I tell him and head back I to my office

PHOENIX'S POV

(Did he just kill the guy right there...I mean I'm not new to people killing but how is so so calm about this?!)

Louise approached me looking concerned

Liam are you alright?

He asked his eyes filled with worry, I'm glad someone here cares about me

Ethan we standing behind him looking equally concerned

Yeah no I'm fine

It would be a lie to say that though...who wouldn't be shocked seeing someone be killed Infront of him

Are you sure?

He asked still looking skeptical

Yeah I'm fine don't worry

A sigh of relief comes on his face as he continues

Thank goodness because most people quit after seeing what boss does. Please don't tell me you're gonna quit too??

He asked his eyes getting big

No no I'm not going to quit don't worry

I didn't have an option...I couldn't quit even if I wanted to

Thank god, are you hungry? Let's go eat

He takes my hand and we all head to the cafe downtown

We return after maybe an hour and then I heard the dreaded,

Come in my office

Sebastian says to me

I head in the office preparing myself to get shot to dead...I mean I've gotten shot before but this one feels more scary

Good job today
