"Just forgive him this once Boss, I promise he won't do it again…
Collins was interrupted when a call came in on Leonardo's phone and he picked it.
He and Collins were currently walking down the hall with staff greeting them along the way.
"Yes". Leonardo said through the call as he walked.
"Father wants you to attend the awards event tonight by 9". Stephen, one of Leonardo's older brothers, said through the call before hanging up. They've never been on good terms.
Leonardo stopped on his track facing Collins.
"Go to the awards in my place and I'll consider letting your nephew off the hook". Leonardo said before walking away and Collins smiled widely.
"Thanks Boss!! But where are you heading to?". Collins asked and Leonardo faced him, pointing to the sky.
"It's gonna rain tonight". Leonardo muttered his gloomy gaze and Collins nodded slowly.
"Oh..the penthouse". Collins muttered as he watched his boss leave in his car, before walking back in.
9:30P
《STARS GALAXY HALL》
The whole outside was filled with varieties of expensive cars, as everywhere was silent when Diana's car pulled up, and Richard her boyfriend alighted from it opening the door for her, and she stepped out looking so gorgeous in her elegant white gown, while Richard had a red suit on.
"Don't you think we arrived too late?". Richard asked as Diana locked arms with him so they could go in together.
"I'm the main show okay. Everyone has to wait for my arrival of course". Diana replied and Richard scoffed as they both walked in together, and as predicted she caught the eyes of everyone the moment she stepped in.
👥 I knew she would arrive late
👥 She thinks everything revolves around her only
👥 I pray she doesn't win the award!!
👥 Of course she wouldn't, my Leo would win again!
👥 It hurts her even more each time his being granted the awards in his absent.
The guests gossiped as Diana walked past them to the front of the row to sit, she had specially booked the seat with lots of money just so she would be closer to the podium where the award is being given.
"They're just worthless haters. They'll be shocked once I take the award home tonight". Diana said to everyone's hearing and they all glared at her as she took her seat and Richard sat right next to her.
Since she arrived late, the name of the person who won the awards was finally called.
"Our CEO of the year, seems to remain our one and only handsome Sir, Leonardo Daymond!!!". The announcer announced and a huge cheer filled the air and Collins stood up proudly from where he sat.
He wore his dark shade waving at the crowd he walked to receive the awards smiling his thirty two teeths widely and Diana screamed getting up from her seat when she saw it wasn't her receiving the award but the same person who does every year!!
"His damn Secretary again?!!! Does he take us for a joke or what?! So we aren't also busy? Or we don't have secretaries who could represent us also?!!". Diana screamed walking to the podium to snatch the award from Collins who dressed like he was the one actually receiving the award and not his boss.
"Please ma'am if it's the award you want to die for you can keep it, my boss won't mind, he has ten of them back at the office". Collins said coolly, taking off his dark glass and Diana glared, slapping him and the glass fell from his hands.
"How dare a mere secretary talk sh*t to me?!! You think I can die for this wretched award? When I can literally buy it and everyone in here!!". Diana snapped loudly and Richard ran up to her while everyone even murmured loudly.
👥 DD has finally gone mad!!
👥 What does she mean by buy all of us in here?
👥 Doesn't she gets tired? She performs this same madness every year at this same event!!!
"Let's leave DD, you don't want the whole news to be filled with your article in a few seconds time…
"Like i f**king care!! I just want to know who the f**k is the motherf**ker who keeps stealing my awards every year!!! Ain't ever heard of no Leonardo Daymond in my entire life!!!". Diana yelled out and Richard sighed, running his hands through his hair.
"Give me back my boss's award since you don't want it!". Collins said, snatching the award from Diana who took it back from him, and he snatched it back from her but a key fell from his pocket and Diana rushed to pick it up, smirking at Collins.
"Hand me the trophy! Or I will dump your car key!!". Diana said but Collins laughed.
"No wonder you can't beat my boss yet. It's a house gate key and not a car key okay!". Collins mocked laughing and everyone joined him while Diana glared checking the key if it was really a house key.
And then her eyes widened when she saw "Boss's penthouse Gate key" inscribed on the tag and Diana smirked deviously.
"I've finally gotten hold of you, Leonardo Daymond". Diana smirked before taking off from the hall in her long gown and everyone stared at her in puzzlement.
"DD, where are you running to? It's going to rain anytime soon, you can't drive in the rain!!". Richard called running after Diana but by the time he got outside she had already driven out of the arena.
"Why did she run away with my house key?...Wait..was it my house key?" Collins asked worriedly as he checked his empty pockets and his eyes Widened as he just gave up sitting on the floor.
"Should I just submit my resignation letter tomorrow? I just gave someone the boss's house key! And it's not just anyone but a lady!! Boss hates women!! Not to mention the lady's DD of all people! I'm so screwed! Once she uses the Key's Gps to track the boss's penthouse it will all be over for me!! Not to mention it will rain soon, he hates being visited on a rainy day because of his…Oh my God!!". Collins lamented on the floor and Richard only glared at him.
••••
"You took my award five f**king times!!! I'll just kill you to end all the embarrassment I've been facing all through the years! I've had enough!!". Diana screamed, adding more speed as she drove using the Gps on the phone.
"To think a smart person uses Gps to go to his own house? Does he forget his way home? He's really mysterious". Diana scoffed as she focused on the road.
She finally reached her destination, getting down she took off her heels as a defense weapon, using the gate keys she got in.
Then she moved to the main door using the same key, the door opened and she smirked.
But the moment she stepped into the house, she was faced with the most horrifying scene of all.
"Argh!!!!". Diana screamed, fainting instantly.
And that was when Leonardo came down the stairs in his shorts and black hoodie putting the lights on he frowned at the sight before him.
"The crazy lady at the awards Collins do talk about? What's she doing here?". Leonardo glaring at Diana's unconscious body from just five feets away.
