Shu lin, a young and handsome, successful, rich Elite man,got a phone call,that, all the shares of his company are sold to another company and now his company,which he built for years, is now drowning. The ringing of the phone pierces the quiet hum of Shu Lin's office. Late afternoon light spills across his desk, catching on the polished wood. He picks up, not bothering to check the caller ID.
"Shu Lin."
A voice he doesn't recognize says, "Mr. Lin, this is Adrian Blake from Collins Capital. I'm calling to inform you that your controlling stake in Axiom Innovations has been liquidated. We've acquired all outstanding shares."
The room tilts slightly, as if gravity has shifted under your feet. Your fingers tighten around the Phone.
"That's impossible....!!!"
You said, though your voice sounded distant even to yourself.
"Who authorized the sale?"
The phone felt suddenly heavier in my hand, my pulse hammering in my ears. Sunlight streams through the floor-to-ceiling windows, but the office feels suffocatingly small, the air thick with the sour taste of dread.
"Your brother, I believe,"
Adrian Blake replies smoothly. "The paperwork was filed this morning. I trust you're aware of the recent... financial troubles at Axiom?"
My vision darkened at the edges. I knew exactly what he was referring to—the months of declining profits, the missed projections, the unsustainable expansion. But this? This wasn't supposed to happen.
I forced my voice steady.
"My brother will never do something so stupid!!!"
"Apology sir that your brother did not informed you of this..."
Adrian Blake responded calmly.
"Shut the fuck up!!"
I shouted and threw my phone away on the glass window, which shattered into 100s of pieces.
"My brother...he will never do something to hurt me!!"
