CHAPTER 20 IT’S BAD TO BE YOUR ON YOUR BAD SIDE
“You are taking over the Tukes group, “I asked, shocked at the revelation.Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.
“Yes”.
“But isn’t it going bankrupt,” I asked wondering why he would want to waste his investment like that.
“The company is going bankrupt because of the CEO’s involvement in illegal deals but if I am going to take over I will be sure to take it back to its former glory and the competent employees will remain” Bradley explained and I looked at him in admiration of how is going to help the company even though I don’t understand how he is going to do it.
“It’s really bad to be on your bad side Mr. Hale. I’m really happy that I am on your side,” I say.
“So, did you think my surprise was good enough,” Bradley asked.
“Yeah, it’s an awesome surprise”.
“If you want to have a good laugh you should try to check the trending news, there are a lot of videos to make your weekend awesome,” Bradley says standing up.
“Where are you going,” I asked him.
“I am going to my study room to finish some work. Did you want to accompany me?” Bradley asked with no ill intentions but my perverted mind had already gone wild.
“No, why should I accompany you?” I replied hurriedly, flustered.
“Then I think I will be going now,” Bradley says, patting my head, which I don’t find weird again because these past few days, I and Bradley have made a lot of body contact.
I decided to switch the channel to some drama channel since the show is already over some minutes into the drama which I find boring since the main lead’s acting is boring. My phone buzzed up and I picked it up.
“What’s it Ollie,” I asked bored of whatever she is going to say because she has been saying the same thing for the past few days now she has been asking me for an exclusive.
“Hi best,” she says in a giddy voice knowing that I don’t want to speak with her.
“How is Tori?” I asked.
“If you want to ask about her you can call her,” Olivia replied with a Savage tone, so I just decided to ask her why she called.
“Why did you call Ollie?”.
“I was about to say that before you ruin my enthusiasm so, have you seen the trending news today,” Olivia asked and I was surprised why everyone keeps mentioning the news.
“What’s it? has another scandal broken out about me”I asked panicking.
“You should chill princess,” Olivia chuckled. “The scandal is not about you but the young master of Tukes. You should try to read the news sometimes hun”.
“Get off my phone let me check the news myself, “I say hanging up on the phone.
I logged into the internet and immediately I was bombarded with different notifications because I haven’t logged into the internet ever since my scandal. Even when Olivia brought my phone from my apartment I still decided to keep away from the internet so, I usually get the updates about my scandal from my friends.
I saw different headlines but all the trending head headlines are up.
“THE DIRTY BUSINESS TUKES GROUP IS INVOLVED IN”
“THE DOWNFALL OF TUKES GROUP”
“THE TUKES CHAIRMAN INVESTIGATED FOR FRAUD”
” THE YOUNG MASTER OF TUKES GROUP ARRESTED IN AN ILLEGAL CASINO”
“THE YOUNG MASTER OF TUKES GROUP ACTING CRAZY”
I kept skipping through the headlines but the last one got me hooked and I can’t help but click on it.
The video started playing and Drew Tukes was seen being dragged away by the policemen.
“Let go of me don’t you know who you are dealing with”
“How dare you touch my cloth you are not even allowed to touch my shoe, “Drew says but the policemen didn’t even give a damn about what he was saying.
“I will make sure I erase you from the face of the earth for doing this to me” he bragged and I shake my head at him for having the same words when he is threatening someone but I pity him though because he doesn’t know what he just got.
I decided to skip through the comment section to see the public sentiment about the news but I was interrupted by my phone ringtone.
“Ollie I am not in love with you so, why did you keep calling me”I say teasingly.
“Can you stop feeling so good about yourself, I just want to ask you how you feel about your revenge spree” Olivia asked and I thought about what she just said.
“I thought I would feel good about it but it felt so… EXHILARATING” I screamed feeling so happy.
“I thought you would feel bad since the scandal involves human trafficking. Can you help me thank Mr. Hale for the exclusive?” Olivia says feeling excited.
“Why will I feel bad about the human trafficking case,” I asked feeling suspicious because Bradley also mentioned it.
“You know we were a victim of it when we were ten so, I think you might be traumatized by it”Olivia explained and I got suspicious because how did Bradley know?
“You know I lost my memory back then so, I don’t recollect it but are you the one that told Bradley about it” I inquired.
“No because Mr. Hale just called me about the exclusive on the Tukes group and he told me not to inform you about it because you might not like the news because you were a victim of it but come to think about how did Mr. Hale know we were victims of human trafficking,” Olivia says but I was already lost in thought because how did Bradley knew about what happened 14 years ago because I don’t even recollect the situation myself.
“I can only know the reason if I asked, “I say after some minutes of silence but before Olivia could say anything I already hung up the phone to clarify my doubts because if my gut feeling is correct then Bradley Hale knew me from the past because it’s too much to be a coincidence.
I quickly skipped up the stairs going to Bradley’s study room but I heard his voice from the room signaling that he is making a call so, I decided to come back to ask him about what Olivia said hearing my name make me halt my steps.
“Georgina doesn’t remember a thing about me which hurts but I am going to make her love me as Bradley Hale” I heard Bradley say and there is the silence after which I suspected that the other person on the other side of the phone is saying something.
“Did you think there is something you can do about her memory loss? I think she doesn’t want to remember it at all”I heard Bradley chuckle but his voice seems so sad.
“I will visit your clinic and maybe some donations too,” Bradley says after that, there is absolute silence and I think he has already hung up on the phone.
I entered the study room without knocking on the door and Bradley looked up to see who it was.
“Oh, it’s you did you get tired of watching your operas,” Bradley says smiling at me but I didn’t get mesmerized this time because I have to ask this gray man the question that has been eating me up.
“Bradley Hale, is it a coincidence”…
