Chapter 4
I sat at my desk and started to do something when he called me and said "I forgot to tell you to return the mug before you left",he uttered not sparing a gaze at me.

I looked at him angrily and wondered if this is a valid reason to call someone on the intercom, but anyways, I forced myself to put on a smile when he looked in my direction before picking the mug.

I quickly went forward and picked up the mug and headed to the door, I didn't dare to say anything to annoy him in order to keep my job.

I strode outside and when I was outside, this is where I dared to vent my anger.I stopped my feet not caring about what one is going to be thinking.

Knock knock
Without even waiting for my permission, someone broke into my office disturbing my thoughts "didn't I make myself clear just now?"I asked as I lifted my head to look at the person.

And when I looked in the direction of the door, I found this embecile standing grinning at me.

My mood was bitter and I have been trying to hold myself back since this so called secretary of mine came in.

I noticed that she was the same girl who punched me in my casino the previous weekend, I was still thinking of how best to torture her but this fool had to come in at this time.

I can only pray that he didn't come across my new secretary because he will not let the matter go , making fun and start lecturing me how to keep my personal matters from business.

"Keep cool bro,don't tell me you are in a bad mood because of what I just saw as I came in.he raised his brows at me teasingly, he looked rather amused than me who was planning on seeking revenge.

"How can I be calm when I am supposed to work with someone who insulted me in my own casino,are you aware that I am supposed to see that annoying face each and every day "I couldn't help but complain to Harry who was enjoying what was going on.

"Judging from the way she is fuming and stomping in the corridor just now, you must have done something to get on her nerves"Harryvsaid to me and this made me a bit happy.

I made a mental note to annoy her and make her life a living hell in the future, and with this thought my mood lit up.

.....Flashback..
On Saturday night Julian and Harry were sipping wine from their glasses while discussing business matters with their comrades.

Harry looked at Julian who was so engrossed in the discussion unlike him who was already exhausted and not interested.

They had worked the entire day and Julian didn't even seem to care if it was a weekend or not, Harry shook his head in defeat when he noticed Julian gazing at him as if telling him to pay attention. He was already tired of his friend's character of working non-stop.

This character of his had earned him a lot of limelight in the business world as one of the youngest and successful business men in the country.

Many business magazines had tried hard to guess how he could have managed to get to his current position in only six years but none of them succeeded because of how mysterious he is.

In fact , Julian had no thought of talking about it to anyone as he believed his success was because of his three theories that Harry hated with his entire being
forty percent of decisiveness
thirty percent of impatience
thirty percent of planning

Harry looked at the focused Julian and frustrated asked him in a hushed tone"are you going to continue being like this, or you don't really know what day of the week it is, why is your life so boring"

This only earned him a hard glare from Julian who continued his discussion .'Look at this dimwit I am trying to save his pathetic lifestyle similar to a robot's and instead of appreciating me he is glaring at me , how u thoughtful 'Harry thought to himself .

Not willing to accept his fate, he turned to look at Julian smiling wickedly at him.He then called the waitress who came and took all of their orders.

The waitress soon came with their orders and Harry smiled at her before he looked at Julian"alright guys, let's call this a day and we will see each other next week "

All of them agreed and stood up to leave.If looks could kill, Harry would have been dead by now considering the way Julian was glaring at him.

"Don't mind, you will thank me later "Harryvsaid patting his shoulder and stood up to leave.

Julian took a deep breath and got his glass and started sipping from it, his eyes moved around and fell in a corner where a certain girl was being shouted at by a huge man.

The man was so tall and so intimidating but to his amusement the girl didn't seem to be fazed by him and she burst out at man.He turned his head and continued to sip his drink silently.

After some moments, he turned and noticed the man grabbing the girl's shoulder and shaking her vigorously.

Naturally Julian does not like meddling into matters that don't concern him and had originally planned to ignore the issue.

Seeing the man not stopping his actions, Julian gulped down his drink and strode where the commotion was.

He pulled the man and with no haste, he landed a punch on his face and the man fell down to the ground groaning in pain.But before Julian could turn to look at the girl , he felt a punch land on his cheek.

When he recovered from his shock, he saw the girl pick up the envelope from the ground and turned to leave the place.

Harry looked at his friend anger visible in his face and no ed out of the casino, worried that Julian might find trouble with the girl, he followed him outside.
