In the morning, Nestor entered his office and saw a large golden bag with a black bow.
Nestor Grize: What is this?
Secretary Bruna: I didn't see who left it, sir, it was before my shift.
Nestor Grize: All right, there must be a note.
The man untied the bow on the bag, and inside were other packages. The first thing he picked up was a black leather folder, with a handle strap closure. The item was from a very expensive and high-quality brand. The second package was a dark green shirt, equally high quality. The third was an insulated coffee mug with the initials of Nestor Grize's name. Inside the mug, a coffee voucher, at the cafeteria in the city center.
Nestor Grize: Such good taste... And the worst part is, it's all my style. And there's a note here at the bottom.
"Mr. Grize, I hope you like it. I still owe you for the help with the reports. You can ask me to help you with something at work, to pay for it, or anything you want, I'll buy it.
Forgive me for the inconvenience, and thank you very much.
Louis."
Nestor Grize: What beautiful handwriting! I will certainly think of something so I can be paid. Every moment with you is being very interesting.
Secretary Bruna: Sir, remember that tomorrow is the day of homage to the Olid gentlemen.
Nestor Grize: That's right... I can't believe it's been a year.
III
In Louis's sector, everyone was working concentrated until Heriberto arrived.
Heriberto: Guys, the owner of KIAMO is here. He went to talk to the CEO. He came to confront him.
Louis's eyes widened, he got out of his chair, and ran to the elevator.
Louis: (This man is a strange Alpha who has been giving me problems ever since I can remember; my parents used to talk about him a lot... And every time this man comes, Eder gets nervous. Lately, he's been very out of control. I... Somehow I know I can calm him down.)
While the elevator went up, Louis took his cell phone.
Louis: Sir, please, there's a gray Mercedes in front of the building, isn't there? Yes, ask for it to be towed. It's parked in a prohibited place.
...
Louis entered the CEO's room, silently, he took advantage of the open door. In front of Eder's desk, a blond man with neatly combed hair to the side, a long brown coat, and a cigarette in his hands stared at him.
Eder Olid: Jurane, say what you want at once. I don't have time for you.
Jurane: I want you to remove the publication about the KIAMO facade!
Eder Olid: Why would I do that?
Jurane: Because it's a lie! And you know it. You're using this fake company to harm me and score points.
Eder Olid: Funny, there's a picture of you talking to their "construction engineer." And the floor really did come loose and fall on the car, and on a pedestrian who was passing by your sidewalk.
Jurane: If you want to attack me, use correct information. Otherwise, I will start attacking you for real. And let's see who will support a company in the hands of a troubled and immature boy like you. Besides, they say you're not even a real Alpha. Are you in therapy?
Eder rose from behind the table with the veins bulging in his face. His skin began to burn, and anger was taking over his body.
Jurane: How about you attack me now?
Eder came out from behind the desk. At that moment, Louis stepped forward, but stopped when he saw Nestor enter.
Nestor Grize: Our CEO has no reason to dirty his hands with such childishness on your part, Jurane.
Nestor stood face to face with the intimidator.
Nestor Grize: Wow, your skin looks great. What are you doing to look like a youngster, besides coming to provoke our CEO, as if you were younger than him?
Jurane: You started it! You know very well that nowadays everything goes viral before the truth is known. And your company is harming mine. And this is not going to be cheap.
Nestor Grize: I imagine not. Maybe three hundred thousand will end the problem. If you hurry.
Nestor looked at Eder
Nestor Grize: We can help with that, right CEO?
Eder took a deep breath and pulled two wads of cash from a drawer. Nestor took it, and handed it to Jurane.
Nestor Grize: Good thing OL can help.
The man hurried out of the room, money in hand.
Eder Olid: Who told you to come in here?
Nestor Grize: I thought you weren't going to take responsibility for telling the reporters incomplete information. But, I was wrong, how nice, you did the right thing.
Eder Olid: You think I'm afraid of Jurane? Nobody brings down OL!
Nestor Grize: If you don't pay more attention to your surroundings, you will bring it down! Luckily, as long as I live, I won't let that happen.
Eder Olid: You should have no stake in this company! You cheated my father, and didn't sell your share!
Nestor Grize: No, I never cheated your father. I said I would only sell my share if he dissolved the partnership with Jurane. He never wanted to! Jurane left because he wanted to, after biting off two hundred million! What's happening here is because of him.
Eder Olid: DON'T YOU DARE TALK ABOUT MY FATHER!
Nestor Grize: Lower your voice. Even though we are Alphas, I am older than you, and your father would never accept this disrespect, let alone me.
Eder fell silent.
Nestor Grize: Jurane is eccentric and outrageous, but I guarantee you he is dangerous, and he is only less dangerous because his head is messed up with so many drugs. Don't provoke him.
Eder walked out of the room quickly.
Louis Olid: Eder!
Nestor looked at Louis, and Louis looked back at him for a few seconds.
Louis Olid: Hi...
Nestor Grize: Hi.
Louis Olid: I have to see Eder.
Louis ran out.
Nestor Grize: (I hope he doesn't get mad at me for arguing with his brother. You are so different from him, you should be the one in charge here, if not for this rule of only Alphas being in charge... Or at least, helping this stubborn man solve his problems... While it's obvious from that loving look in your eyes, Louis, that you are very worried about your brother... Why doesn't he like you?)
