Author's POV
When the sunlight fell on her face, Amelia woke up.
She looked at the watch and saw it was 5 in the morning.
Amelia got down from the bed and went towards her closet. She took out her clothes from the closet then she entered the washroom.
After taking a long bath, she wrapped a towel around her body then came out.
She stood in front of her mirror and started drying her hair.
When she was done with her hair, she wore her dress then came out of her room.
When she came out, she saw her parent's room was still closed.
"Mommy is still sleeping. Strange! Mommy always wakes up before me" Amelia whispered.
"Mommy must be tired" Whispering this, she entered the kitchen and started making breakfast.
For taking eggs Amelia opened the fridge and she saw there were two eggs left.
Sighing sadly, she took two eggs and started making breakfast for her mommy and daddy..
"I need to buy some vegetables, and groceries" Thinking of this, Amelia completed making breakfast.
After cooking, she took a note and started making the list of the groceries she would need.
After making the list she opened her phone and checked her bank balance. She saw she had only 700 $.
Amelia sighed sadly then opened her wallet. When she saw she had only 70 $ in her wallet, her face went pale.
"If I take out all of my bank balance, then I will be able to buy the groceries. I have to do it. I cannot let mommy do all" Amelia thought then looked at the wall clock.
She saw it was 6 in the morning.
"Mommy has to join the shop at 7 also daddy needs to take his medicine. I need to wake them up now" Thinking of this, Amelia walked towards her parent's room and knocked at the door. But she didn't get a response. She knocked again.
When she didn't get a response this time too, she opened the door and entered the room but found only her dad sleeping on the bed. Her mommy wasn't in the room.
Thinking this she must be in the washroom Amelia called her mommy but she did not get any response.
"That means she again went to work at night" Amelia whispered to her then looked at her sleeping daddy. Amelia looked at her weak daddy. She knew her daddy was getting weak day by day. He needed good treatment but for this, they needed to give a huge amount of money which they didn't have.
Amelia's eyes went watery. She let her daddy sleep until her mommy came back.
She came out from the room..
Sitting on a chair, she started waiting for her mommy.
After some time her mother entered home with a bag.
Seeing her, Amelia stood up and walked towards her.
"Where were you, mom? I was worried?" Amelia asked her..
"I am sorry for making you worried, my baby. Actually, there was a party at my shop owner's Mansion. So I went there to work" Jenny replied to her and sat on a couch..
"You again worked as a waiter at the Mansion. Why mom? I told you that you don't need to do overtime. You already have three part-time jobs. Then why do you still work at night? You need rest mom" Amelia told her in her caring tone..
"They offered me a big amount baby. Your father's medicine is about to finish baby. I need to buy his medicine. So I agreed. We also need to pay house rent, electricity, gas, water bill. Also, your exam is coming soon. You need to pay the exam fee" Jenny said to her daughter..
"Mommy, I was thinking to join a company and do a part-time job," Amelia said to her..
"No baby, please don't think about this. It was your parents' dream to see you as a successful woman. And for them, you need to fulfill it. In your whole life, we were not able to give you anything, baby. We will feel ashamed if you do a job avoiding your study" Jenny said to her..
Hearing this Amelia felt proud to have them as her parents. She got up and a brought a glass of water for her mommy..
Jenny looked at the water glass and forward her hand to take the glass but as soon as her hand touched with the glass. She hissed in pain and removed her hand.
"What happened, mommy?" Amelia asked her and held her hand.
Jenny tried to remove her hand but Amelia held it tightly and saw a burnt mark on her hand.
Seeing this tears rolled down on Amelia's cheeks. Before Jenny could wipe her tears Amelia ran towards the washroom to bring medicine.
Holding her hand softly Amelia applied the medicine on the mark and made her drink the water.
Seeing the sad look on Amelia's face, Jenny spoke up," I am fine. One of the guests mistakenly threw hot food on my hand baby. I am perfectly fine."
Hearing this, Amelia looked at her and spoke up," Are you trying to convince me or yourself, mommy? I know someone threw that hot food on your hand intentionally. Just because we are low-class people."
Jenny looked down because she knew her daughter had already caught her lie.
For changing the topic, Jenny handed over the bag to Amelia and spoke up, "I brought some groceries baby. Please make food quickly baby. Your daddy needs to take medicine. Also, I am so hungry"
Amelia smiled sadly at her and took the bag then spoke up," I already made it. Go get freshen then come out. And mommy I made the groceries list. I will buy it after my class"
Jenny smiled and cupped her face," Baby, I know we are going through a bad time but still, I can not use the money which you earned from your hard work. You keep the money baby. Use it for your educational purposes"
"But, mommy, I do not like it when you keep working day and night for us. I want to help you" Amelia said.
"You can help me, baby. When you will get a great job then I will stop working and only rest then. But know you need to do your study properly. Okay?" Jenny asked her.
Amelia nodded at her.
Jenny smiled and kissed her daughter's head then walked towards her room..
After getting ready, Jenny woke up Matthew and helped him to get freshen up.
Jenny helped him to sit on his wheelchair then they came out.
Then they ate the breakfast together.
After this Amelia left for her university. And as her mommy worked at night, she stayed at home to take some rest.

At King Mansion
Hearing the alarm sound, Ace opened his eyes.
He switched off the alarm and got down from the bed.
He went towards the big window and pull the curtains to let the light come inside his room.
When the bright light fell on his eyes, he closed his eyes for a second then opened them again. When the light came inside his room he saw his room was a mess because he was working at night on an important project.
Taking a towel he entered the washroom.
After taking a long shower, he came out and saw his room was clean. Also, a cup of black coffee was on his table.
Ace went towards his closet and took out his clothes. He wore his clothes then picked up the coffee cup.
He went towards the balcony. After he finished his coffee, he looked at his watch.
It was 6 in the morning.
Ace got ready for the office. Taking his bag and car key he left his room.
When he came downstairs, he saw his parents were waiting for him.
"Good morning Dad, good morning mom" Ace greeted them and kissed his Mom's head.
"Good morning, son" Hunter and Stella both greeted him back.
Ace sat down and Stella served him breakfast.
"How is the project going on, son?" Hunter sipped his coffee and asked Ace.
"Fine dad. The project is almost ready" Ace replied.
"Good. I have heard LTD company will announce who will win the project" Hunter said.
"Yes, dad. But don't worry. Our project is the best. He has no way than to choose us" Ace said and Hunter gave him a proud smile.
Ace finished his breakfast then left for the office.
When the car stopped in front of King Corporation, a guard opened the door for Ace.
Ace got down and looked at his gigantic King corporation which was screaming silently with power and luxury.
Ace looked at his building with proud then entered his office.
All employees stood up for showing him respect but as usual Ace entered his cabin without looking at them.
"Devil" Everyone muttered then started working.
Ace's POV
After attending two meetings, I took my lunch. It was already 4.
After eating, I sat down on my chair then started working.
I was working at my cabin when I heard a knock at my door.
"Come in," I said and my most trusted employee, my PA entered.
"What is it, Max?" I asked him and started checking the file again but he kept quiet.
"Max if you have come here to show me silent performance then get out right now. I don't have time for this nonsense" I told him.
"Uh..Sir, I got a call from LTD company just a little ago" He told me.
I stopped working and looked at him.
"LTD company. Oh, about the deal right? I knew it that we will get the deal. Dad will be so happy. Max Mr. Alexander is our old client so, I want to work hard on this project" I told him.
"Sir, we didn't get this deal," He said nervously.
Hearing this I looked at him.
"Why?" I asked him.
"Sir, one of our employees leaked our project information to our rival company. So, Mr. Alexander chose our rival company" He told me.
I fisted my hand in anger.
"Who is that bastard? Who the hell is he?" I asked him in my venomous tone.
"Sir, he is Alex Center. He works in our account department. Sir, he has two children. One boy and one girl. His wife ran away long back"
"Max I am not going to kidnap his family. Just tell me the important information" I shouted at him angrily.
"Sir, two days ago 1 billion dollars was transferred to his account by an unknown source. Sir, our security looked into this matter. They found Mr. Alex involved in illegal work" He told me fearfully.
"I want the bastard behind the bar for a lifetime. And fix a meeting with Mr. Alexander. Also, file a case against our rival company for stealing my project information" I ordered him.
He took out his cellphone and started doing the work.
"Max what about the Paris project? Did the bastard leak the information too?" I asked him.
"No sir. All information about the Paris project is in my hand but sir I heard one girl under Alex Center, works in our company. She is trying to get information from you" He said to me.
"I will go this time for the meeting. Call the pilot and tell him to get the jet ready and I will take care of the girl" I told him.
"Okay sir" He replied and left my cabin.
"Bloody fools. They betrayed me. Cheaters. Fucking cheaters" I said and took a file then started working again.
After some time
I was working on a file when someone entered my cabin without my permission..
Controlling my, anger I looked up and saw it was a girl who was standing there smiling at me.
The girl recently joined my company and tried to seduce me many times.
"What are you doing here? And how dare you enter my cabin without my permission?" I shouted at her..
Hearing my loud tone I saw her eyes fill up with fear but like a dirty woman she spoke up," Sir, Mr. Center wants your sign on this file. He asked me to get your sign. I know you were already disturbed so I came here without knocking. You know I am so good at giving pleasure. It will be so much fun and your disturbance will go away. What say?" She asked me like a dirty slut.
I understood that the girl was no other than the cheater girl, Max just informed me.
I smirked at her and walked towards her.
When I stood in front of her I put my hand on her cheek and as expected the dirty woman closed her eyes thinking I was going to kiss her.
I roamed my hand on her cheeks and spoke up," So it was your real intention to sleep with me?" I asked her.
She opened her eyes and winked at me.
And that's it.
I fisted her hair so tightly that she screamed in pain.
I moved closer to her and spoke up near her ear," It is a good day for me, or else I would have cut you into pieces and fed my dog."
She looked at me while tears rolled down on her cheeks.
"Do you think I am a fool to fall for you? I knew you came here to make me fall for you. Even I know you work for my rival company. You are a spy. They send you here to spy on me" I told her and she looked at me with shock.
"For..forgive me sir" She spoke up and tried to release her hair from my fist but it only made me hold her hair more tightly.
Pushing her away, I called my security team.
Soon my guards entered my cabin..
"Take this dirty woman and I want to see her behind bars" I ordered them.
They nodded at me and dragged that disgusting woman out of my cabin.
Calling my manager, I asked him to hire a PA for me and disconnected the call.
I walked and stood in front of the glass door. From there, I could see half of the city.
I saw people running, busy in their respective works.
I sighed thinking about my life. My life totally changed after the incident.
Once I was known as the most fun-loving person. But after losing the most two important people, I became heartless.
Just then someone knocked at my cabin.
"Come in," I said and Max entered the room.
"Sir, your jet is ready. And I called Mr. Alexander's PA and told him everything. Mr. Alexander wants to meet you today if you have time" He said to me.
"Good job Max. I am going to meet him now" I said and picked up my coat then left my cabin.
Max also started following me.
I was going towards the lift when my eyes fell on a group of people. They were talking more instead of working.
"Just last month I fired five employees because of this. But they already forgot it" I muttered.
Anger rose into me. I walked towards them and heard them making some useless jokes and laughing their ass off.
"Did you guys hear the LTD company kicked our devil boss ass? Maybe he also got tired of this devil. But alas, we cannot go away from here even if we want to" A man said and his team started laughing.
Hearing this, I fisted my hand in anger. I cleared my throat to get their attention.
"I didn't know my employees can make these useless jokes in work time. Do I give you payment for these fucking jokes?" I shouted at them.
Their faces went pale finding me there.
"We are very sorry Mr. King. We will not do this again" One of them told me.
I looked at Max and spoke up," I want their resignation letters the first thing tomorrow in the morning."
Hearing this, their faces turned pale in shocked.
"Mr. King, please don't do this. We have little, little children. Please don't do this Sir. We will come on the road if we lose the job" One of them requested me.
"You should think about this before creating useless jokes in work time. Mr. King never changes his decision. Now go and type your resignation letters" Max spoke up and I smirked. That's my PA. That's why I hired him.
I looked at them then started walking towards the lift.
When I got down, I got into my car and my driver started driving. I just hated cheaters. How dare the bastard leak my project information! I was going to make him regret it soon. And those middle classes workers they were creating jokes like my company was a picnic spot.
After two hours he stopped the car in front of LTD company.
I got down from the car and got inside the company.
After an hour, I came from the company with a happy mind because I got the deal. It was 7 in the evening.
I sent my driver back then started driving my car.
Soon, I stopped my car in front of a club and entered the VIP section. As soon as I entered, few money-minded bitches started throwing themselves on me.
They just loved money. And I loved to play with them. Soon, I took a girl among them and left for my apartment.
After satisfying my anger, I would throw the girl outside not before throwing some money on her face.
After she left, I entered the washroom and took a long shower and came out.
I dressed up quickly and left my apartment. I needed to go home now. Mom must be waiting for me.

At King Mansion
Ace was working on his laptop when he heard a soft knock at his door.
"You don't need to knock mom," Ace said and his mom entered his room.
Ace smiled at his mom then gave her a question look then again started working.
Sighed at him, his mother spoke up, " Ace, it is already 2 at night my boy. Stop working now please and sleep"
Hearing this, Ace stopped working and looked at his mom and spoke up," Just one hour mom. There is so much work that is still pending. I need to complete this file tonight. I can't trust my employees for this project. They just need a way to cheat on me. I need to complete it by myself mom. And why are you still awake? You should be sleeping now mom"
"I was sleeping, baby, but I woke up feeling thirsty. When I was going back to my room after drinking, I saw your room's light is still on. So I came here, Ace. My boy, you are already the number one businessman in this country now you don't have to work hard. You are already a successful man my boy" His mother said to him softly...
"I know mom. And for keeping my position, I need to work hard. And for now, I need to complete this file, mom. And I am going to Paris tomorrow" Ace said and started working again.
"Why are you going suddenly, my boy?" Stella asked him.
"For a meeting, mom" Ace replied.
"When will you return?" Stella asked him.
"After two days, mom" Ace said and shut down his laptop.
"Okay. Sleep now baby" Stella said and kissed his head then left the room.
Ace smiled and switched off the lights then laid down on his bed.
