His Assistant

Desire, Greed And A Bugatti Chiron.

Trey POV

Walking into work, I felt good as hell.

200 million in my pocket and a lil date with the lovely Megan was what fueled my fire. Placing my hand on my door pad, I came into my office almost dancing in as I made my way to my desk.

Placing my bag down on the desk, I danced around it as I moonwalked my way to my mini bar.

Bleu: see you in a good mood brodie." he smirked as him and the boys came in.

Me: Making 200 mill overnight just does something to a nigga." I danced as I poured myself a drink.

Kollin: we glad you happy bro but we need to talk." he said. Looking up at them I could see regretful stares on theirs faces as I sucked my teeth.

Me: Man no, let me enjoy my day." I snapped at them.

Marcellious: we ain't trying to blow yo day. But if we don't tell you first, hearing it from someone else will piss you off." he said. Sighing, I took a big gulp of my drink before turning to them.

Me: aight, wassup?" I asked.

Bleu:..so we saw when you passed the trade yesterday. We was watching the market news when your name came up around 9:50." he said.

Me: aight?" I shrugged.

Bleu: we also saw another name come up at the same time." he said cautiously.

Me: who??" I forced.

Kollin: Jerome." he said as I stared.

Kollin: on the world clock, you passed 1 second before he did." he said.

Clutching my glass tight in my hand, I boiled in my own confusion and anger as they stood there. Great Britain was a trade that took me forever to pass, how the hell did this nigga get so lucky?

Me:..aight what's being said?" I said walking to my desk.

Marcellious: Last year you said that the trade was unpassable."

Me: because it is." I snarled.

Marcellious: Yeah, well Jerome has broken that ideal and..we lost two sponsors behind it." he said. I scoffed as I took a seat at my desk, gritting my jaw tight as I already knew they went to Jerome's side.

Me: who?" I asked.

Bleu: Stavia Lewis and Gill Davis." he said.

Me: figures." I hissed. They stared at me as I leaned back in my chair. I folded my hands together, squeezing my frustration through them.

Bleu: on the bright side, word is getting around that you may have caught up to Carrington." he said trying to lighten the mood.

Bleu: he didn't pass the trade, but he earned other trades last night. However his earnings were not as high as yours. When the market settles we will see just how much of a gap is left between y'all." he said.

I looked away from them, not really caring that I may have closed the gap between Carrington and I. I was bound to do that anyway. I was stuck on trying to figure out how luck just gave Jerome that trade.

Marcellious: you good bro?" he asked as I stayed silent.

Me: There ain't no way he passed.." I mumbled as I rubbed my thumb and my pointer finger together.

Bleu: we saw his name on the market-."

Me: I know what you saw Bleu." I stopped.

Me: but I am telling you, ain't no way he passed." I called out.
