WHO IS HE?
1706 Words
THIRD PERSON POV;
The manager and Mikael left to Big Show Estate Agency. The manger keeps glancing at Mikael every now and then.
He keeps wondering how could a young man as such a young age be so rich, and he is on a low profile, young rich people nowadays are quite disrespectful, they spend money lavishly, they keep boasting about their parent's money but Mikael..-young master Mikael is so different.
Mikael noticed the manager staring at him, he turned towards him "Do I look bad?"
"No...Young Master Mikael"
Mikael's eyes burged out at hearing this.
"Young Master?" He said more like he asked.
The manager was scared, he thought he had provoked him.
He couldn't afford to provoke him, a rich youngster like him could make someone like him disappear overnight and Young Master Mikael is a very good customer, he has already made over $6 million dollars thanks to him, if only he could have customers like him then he would be satisfied.
The manager concluded he will have to give the Big Show Estate Agency's manager some money,
he planned on giving him $10,000 because he already made a profit he hasn't made for a very long time.
"I am so so sorry sir, I'll simply change it to what ever you want"
The manager said pleadingly.
"You can call me whatever you want but don't call me that when people are around, I wouldn't like someone to know about me" he paused
" if someone eventually does, it won't be funny" Mikael said coldly.
He needed to say this to conceal his identity just as his mother had said earlier.
It must be important that his parents left him to conceal his identity so to protect him..
"Okay young Master". Mikael scoffs at this he is never used to being addressed this way.
They arrived at the Estate Agency.
The security man led them to a parking space, they alighted from the car but the second the security man set his eyes on Mikael he frowned.
The manager saw this and frowned also "He's with me" he said this eyeing the Security man.
"Sorry sir" The security man retreated to his duty post.
"Let's go in.." he paused "sir" he said this with his tone down, he looked around to see if someone had heard him call Mikael 'sir'.
Mikael chuckled at this, "Funny" he mumbled.
Mikael begin to walk into the building.
"Whew that went well, at least no one heard me" he jogged towards Mikael's advancing figure.
They both entered the building, as usual the receptionist welcome them.
"Mr. Castiel what can we do for you" She said sounding professional like always
"I'm here to see your manage.." The manger cuts him off, he already saw Donald when he came in
"Here I am Donald" He approached them, he seems not to notice Mikael.
"Harold, it's been long" Donald Castiel replied.
"Well what can I say, business is booming, how's business doing over there" he asked with sarcasm laced in his tone.
"Business just boomed more than I ever thought, ..thanks to you" Donald Castiel replied to Harold pointing at Mikael who seem to be invisible to him until now.
"You.." Harold points at Mikael, he became furious and at the same time he was curious
"what'd you mean?" He asks Donald Castiel.
"C'mon don't act dumb, I should be grateful to you, you really helped me get enough money this year, I'ma give you $10,000 to show my appreciation" Donald Castiel said this with joy in his eyes.
Harold was surprised, he always knew Donald is not really successful in the Estate Agency business but now he wants to give him $10,000 to show appreciation for what he doesn't seem to know about, Donald must have pulled a big deal worth millions, why cant the customer come to him instead, he's agency is the first to come across before Donald's. He's envious of him.
"Donald stop acting like a fvckin d**k head, and tell me what's happening here, and why is... why is this boy here? "
Harold said this loudly pointing at Mikael, he really likes dragging people in the dirt. He enjoys doing this. People paused whatever they are doing to listen to the on going conversation not with the way the Manager is fuming with anger.
His face all red.
"Harold don't you play dumb, you told youn..you told this young man to come purchase a house at my agency"
"Yes I did , I chased him out when he's acting like a lost dog.".
"He came to me"
"Yes? What has that got to do with me?" Harold replied with a grin on his face, seems like the Donald came with the kid so he could beg for him so as to be on his good side.
'Hmmm now it's getting interesting' He thought
"He did told me you asked him to come to me"
"Yes?"
Sounds like it's getting pretty tensed up, no one wants to blink an eye so as not to miss any slightest action.
"He bought a house" Donald said loudly, he's trying to let the audience /customers + workers know he's indeed grateful.
He is really not aware of what's going on.
"So? He did bought a house, how much could he afford? Are you even sure he's not a scam?" Harold scowled at the both of them, mostly Mikael who is already sitted at one corner watching the show, the kind of calmness Mikael possesses infuriate Harold the more.
The building immediately went silent awaiting Donald's response.
"C'mon Harold, he bought a house of $5.1 million dollars, this is one of the biggest deal I've made, probably the biggest deal I have ever made so far" Donald said beaming with smile.
"WHAT!!"

THIRD PERSON POV
WHAT!!
WAIT!!
NO, it can't be true.
These are the words the audience could mutter in the few seconds Donald Castiel dropped the bomb.
Everyone was completely stunned.
"That means he is so rich, he's just a simple guy" one of the audience said.
"True, how can a young boy be so rich I'm very sure his parents are one of the richest in town"
"I doubt that, if his parents are rich we would know, maybe he is new here"
The audience can't stop discussing about it.
They were surprised but Harold Stark was much more than being surprised.
"Are you sure?" He asked.
"Yes, take a look at the payment" Donald brought out his phone to show the credit alert to Harold.
He was surprised.
He looked at Mikael, then to the phone Donald showed to him, he did this again and again.
He has a lot of customers but not any had bought a house of $5.1m.
He knew he had lose a big customer and this..
wait..
what..
"Sandra.. Sandra.. Sandra" His thunderous voice echoed across the hall.
It seems like she wasn't around when it all happened.
After few seconds, she came in. She walked up to him.
"Sir? You called for me"
Slap!
Harold Stark slapped her.
Everyone was stunned again, why is everything getting tensed up every second.
She held her face, it was red and swollen showing hand prints.
She stood up.
Her eyes welled up with tears.
"Sir, what happened? What did I do to des..""
Slap!
She was cut off with a slap again. She fell on her knees. ''What'd I do?"
She really can't survive without this Estate Agency job, she went through a lot to secure this job. She even slept with Harold twice to get the job. If the man she had s*x with to secure a job slapped and even wants to chase her, it means she had committed a serious offence but she couldn't place it well, she had always tried to please Harold.
She even had s*x with him anytime he wants it and she did all these just to secure her job.
"Get out" He points at the door leading outside.
"Sir please" She begged
"You don't deserve to be here, you made us lose a valuable customer"
"I will never do that"
"oh, really? What about him?"
He points at Mikael who was seated at a corner enjoying the scene before him.
"Him?" She stood up.
"Yes, him''
"But he was lying, he never wanted to buy anything"
Slap!
"He bought a house of "5.1 million dollars, you made us lose this" He said.
She widened her eyes.
She must have heard him wrongly.
"Go out now"
She immediately went to Mikael, she knelt before him.
"Please sir, I was wrong about you, can you help me I can't lose this job it meant everything to me"
Mikael stood up.
"I'm sorry I can't help you" He said coldly, he turned his gaze towards Donald Castiel "Mr. Castiel let's go , I'll make sure to @acome tomorrow to sign the transfer of ownership documents"
He begin to walk out.
Sandra Jones ran after him.
Mikael ignored her.
Mikael turns back "Mr. Manager if you don't want to be in trouble I mean a big one, you better contain her before you regret not doing so" Mikael just said that in the heat of the moment, he saw the look in Harold's eyes he was nervous. He knew if he said things in a threatening manner Harold will do the needful with immediate effect.
"Take her out" Harold ordered the Security.
The security dragged her away.
Mikael turned away.
Donald Castiel went out with Mikael, he led him towards his car.
He wanted to open the car door for him but he refused to let him do that.
Donald went to the driver's seat. He started the car and zoomed off.
The audience were shocked, they thought he came with a big ride, this young man is something else.
Many wished they knew him, many wished they were friends with him, some ladies were dying to know him, some men were envious of him.

"You can drop me here''
"Here?" Donald Castiel was surprised. Is Young Master Mikael living here?
"Yes"
Donald parked the car safely, Mikael alighted from the car.
"Thanks for the ride, I'll come around tomorrow"
He turned around and wants to leave.
"Young Master"
"Yes" Mikael turned around
"Can I have your cell number?
"Sure"
"three one two eight seven zero zero three ........."
"Bye Young Master"
"Bye" Mikael turned around and left.
Donald Castiel watched Mikael's retreating steps. He was really surprised.
'If only rich people could be as humble as Young Master this world would be a much better place' He thought.
He has a lot to do, he has to make sure the transfer of ownership document is available by tomorrow.
HE drove off.
