Andrei was furiously tapping on his phone. He was at a lost when his devices were suddenly frozen. It was those that contained Anya’s photos. He frustrated and asked for a technician, and they said he was hacked.
Who dares to hack his phone?!
It was not his only problem. Previously, he had just been out for business with a bunch of business men. All those who had ambitions like him. they were developing products that would rival the Castellanos. They believed if they have enough partners and associates. Then they can kick out the Castellanos’ position in the industry once and for all.
But now, suddenly, all those associates had cut ties with him and some of them were angrily pointing at him.
Their business was implicated by the Castellanos, although they really had negative plans, but they still pointed fingers to those who lead this charade.
And that was Andrei.
It made Andrei even more furious. His plans of bringing Damon Castellano down were thrown away in vain and now, he lost the photos that could bring Anya back to him.
A big crisis was now happening at the Evances group of Company but he was at a lost on what to do. There was no one willing to help him and their business associates were one by one breaking contacts with them. He knew this was all the Castellanos doing but he couldn’t do anything to them.
The man was so angry he shattered a few porcelains. His eyes were red in anger and he could only blame a certain person for his misfortunes.
Damon Castellanos!
Ellen paced in front of Damon’s office. Their business was plummeting more as the days pass by and they were almost in the brink of bankruptcy. She had already fainted because of this and when she woke up, she still needs to face the problems of the company.
Only the Castellanos could break and revive their company back but Damon Castellanos refused her calls. When she couldn’t take it any longer, she went to the Castellanos Group of Companies personally. She had been here first thing in the morning.
But when she bumped into Damon Castellano, he refused to meet her in the reason of being busy.
Ellen felt humiliated but there was nothing she could. She also wasn’t willing to leave because the only reason she could think of was to beg to Damon Castellano.
So the old woman waited in the lobby for the whole morning. She was now pacing back and forth and when she became weak, she would sit.
People around her were looking at her with meaningful eyes, some business associates were pleased at her misfortune. Ellen could only grit her teeth. But what she couldn’t accept was that even those lowly employees dare to eye her like this.
Ellen glared fiercely at those and they would look away or lower their head. Ellen clenched her hands as she knew every person in this building were laughing at her. She was so angry she could faint but she swallowed all these insulting eyes and still waited for Damon.
Finally, after a whole morning of waiting, maybe Damon pitied her that he sent a secretary to have her wait in the receiving room.
Ellen really felt the despise of the Castellanos on her company because if it was really a business hearing, she would be led to his office. But she was actually led to the reception room as if she was merely a guest and not a business associate.
Ellen could only breathe in and out. She comforted herself that al the very least. Damon was willing to meet with her. so she needed to grab this chance to convince Damon Castellano.
Ellen then followed the secretary to the reception room. She waited for Damon to arrive. It was almost 30 minutes, but Ellen didn’t notice it since she was very nervous.
By the time Damon arrived, Ellen hurriedly stood up and greeted him.
“Mr. Castellano,” Ellen tried her best to smile and spoke fawningly at the man. But Damon only directly sat in front of her, not bothering to return her greeting.
“Please sit, Mrs. Davids.” Damon nonchalantly said. Ellen saw this and swallowed hard.
She sat and directly stated her purpose.
“Mr. Castellano, I know you have been dissatisfied with us. This old woman would beg you here to spare our company. This was the company my deceased husband had painstakingly built. Him and old Mr. Castellano had been good friends.”
Damon coldly looked at the old woman before him. He really found it funny how these people dared to offend him and would then come crawling back for his mercy.
They were a sore in the eyes and he was not a patient man. But this old woman was really cunning, using the past relationships now, are we?
“My old man had a great relationship to your Castellanos predecessor. They had promises back on the days. So please, for past relationship’s sake, I ask for Mr. Castellanos good judgement here.” Ellen continued as she tried to smile at Damon. She had used the ancestors’ past relationship as she couldn’t think of more. And she knew people wouldn’t just brush off these relationships lightly. It was the rule of business and also, filial piety.
Damon had completely seen through Ellen’s intentions and he could only scoff.
“I am the head of the Castellanos now. Is Mrs. Davids questioning my abilities?” He raised his eyebrows at the old woman.
Ellen panicked a little and tried to appease.
“How could I? Mr. Castellano, I only ask for you to give us another chance. We would change and improve whatever you find unsatisfactory in our company.” Ellen stated as she tried to offer whatever promise and proposal she could think of.
But neither was what Damon wanted.
“I am dissatisfied with your family’s heir himself, I wonder what you could do?” Damon taunted as he leaned back and stared with cold eyes.
Andrei, that useless grandson of hers, Ellen just knew that he really was the reason for all of this.
“Mr. Castellano, I had already assumed the head of the company. I assure you that brat would be thought a lesson.” Ellen assured Damon.
“That’s not what I want,” Damon cut off Ellen’s offers. Damon doesn’t need this empty promises. He wanted that man to be out of his sight.
“There’s no sincerity if it is not the person himself is facing me, right?” He casually mentioned as his eyes flashed with ruthlessness.
Ellen was taken aback of what Damon wanted, but the man did not say it any longer. He only looked at her meaningfully as if she should already know what he wanted.
Damon wanted Andrei to be the one here, saying all Ellen’s words. He wanted that man to grovel and realize his own stupidness.
‘I want him to beg.’
