Chương 4: chapter 4 [ EDITED BY NEW GUY]

"Burn the garden, young master?!" Sebastian asked in a surprised voice.

"Yes, it's time that I let her rest and not disturb her anymore." Joshua said without any emotion in his voice.

Sebastian knew that his master was in pain but he also knew that it was necessary. He has moved on and had dedicated himself to his purpose.

It will take time, but the wounds will heal in time.

After dumping Clint's body, Sebastian and Joshua were now headed towards the Board of Directors meeting.

Joshua is turning 16 this year and he can now take the CEO seat of Foley Textiles.

Joshua's company is one of the top companies in the Textile market, the company itself is worth 200 million dollars.

You might be thinking that it wasn't worth much. But you are forgetting that it is now 1986. And currently this money is worth a lot.

Not only that, but Joshua has asked Sebastian to create a Newspaper company, and in just 6 months under Joshua's instructions, they became the No. 1 newspaper in the U.S.

Now they have 5 different types of magazines for various topics, targeting every age group.

He has also started a News channel 3 months ago.

Joshua knew from his past world and life, that the one who controls the media will always wins.

If you have the media at your fingertips, then you can control what the people think and see. You can create news; you don't need evidence neither does the news have to be truthful.

You can make a good government look like a dictatorship. You could make a drug addict into a victim. You can even cause riots if you play your cards right.

And that's what Joshua is aiming for all this while. To control people's thinking process.

Joshua might have told his parents that he would kill all of Humanity but he knew it is not possible.

Only a small percentage of people truly control the world. All he had to do is kill them and then, the world is his to take. But the problem is that these people have a lot of assets to themselves and thus a war is on the horizon.

Now that Joshua can legally take the company's ownership, some people's ambitions have grown.

Joshua will not humor them by playing the game.

The game is only good until someone decides to smash the board, and he is going to smash the board so hard that even the Hulk would piss himself.

Now, the problem is that someone named Patrick who has 13 percent of his company's total share thinks that he could bite off more than he can chew.

He has made deals with other boards of directors. He has bribed them, telling them that I am crazy.

He is even demanding that the company should have a share in my news business.

Greed is truly Mankind's doom.

He must set an example out of him.

" We are here, Young master "

" Thank you, Sebastian"

" It's my duty, young master "

"No, it's not. Gosh, how many times do I have to tell you. You are not just a Butler."

Sebastian didn't say anything. He knew his young master thought of him as his own family, the feeling is mutual.

" Let's meet the directors they are waiting for you." Sebastian reminded him with a thin smile.

Board meeting room

Today at the order of Sebastian, there were no employees at the work. Today was their day off.

Everyone knew that today, the future boss of the company will be decided and if they thought that Patrick had already won, they were in it for a nasty surprise.

Actually, it wasn't their fault. After all, Joshua's age let them think he is a pushover.

They think that he granted them a holiday because he wanted to keep his reputation.

In the meeting room, there were 10 people wearing professional clothing, 3 of them women and the rest men.

They were discussing something amongst themselves when, Joshua and Sebastian entered.

They became silent.

Joshua looked at them and said, "How are you doing gentlemen and gentleladies."

Joshua extended his hand toward Patrick and said, "Greetings, Patrick. "

"Hello to you too Joshua." Patrick grabbed his hand and gave him a handshake.

Patrick was a fat man in his fifties. He had greying hair and specs on.

Everyone took their seats.

And then Patrick started speaking

"Well, I believe that everyone here know why we are here today. So, I will cut to the chase and come to the point.

Joshua here is not good enough in handling the business. His behavior shows it all. So, I and all of the board members decided that you, Joshua will not take the C.E.O position.

And it would be in your favor if you hand over the news company to us too. "

Patrick said it all. He was so sure of victory...….. Such a shame.

"You know I can humor you for your acquisitions, and then we can talk all about it slowly. But... "

"You know Patrick all of your acquisitions might have borne fruit but you made a single mistake. " Joshua stood up from his seat and said.

"Oh? Pray tell Joshua, what is it? "

Patrick asks with a smirk.

"You mistook me for a simple boy, Patrick. "

Patrick was going to say something but, he suddenly had some difficulty breathing.

His breathing was quickened and he started taking longer breaths.

"Ahuck..." Blood came from Patrick's mouth.

Patrick fell from his chair; he was in pain. He looked toward Joshua.

And what he saw scared him more than anything. He saw Joshua's cold face with those apathetic eyes, like he was nothing but an insect.

He knew he made a mistake, but he didn't think that Joshua would kill him in front of everyone.

He really did screw up. He saw his life flashing in front of his eyes. And then Joshua spoke

" You know what? If it will make you feel good, your family in Huawei, celebrating the holiday there? I can't live any loose ends you know. So they will be accompanying you soon.

Goodbye, sweet dreams. "

His eyes widened at the revelation.

He made a big mistake and not only did he doomed himself but his family as well.

And then darkness took him.

No one in the office said a single word. They were shell shocked. They didn't think Joshua had it in himself to kill someone in front of them. They now knew why he granted that holiday to the employees.

They were at the mercy of Joshua.

"Now what should I do with you all." Joshua turned to them with a smile.

Their legs gave up one by one. And now they were laying on the floor

"Please spare us, Joshua. We will not tell anyone. It was our mistake." one of the women quickly gathered her wits and pleaded.

"Let me think if I kill you all, the police will think that I did it and if somehow I dodge that bullet then I will have to deal with a new board of directors.

Too much trouble for my taste.

Alright then, I will leave you guys but if any of you decided to go against me, there will be a punishment.

Sebastian, cut off a finger from each of them.

Let me tell you, I know where all your families are and I have men who will kill for me."

A/n: I don't create too much drama. Because when you have absolute power then there is no need for it.

And if you are wondering how Joshua killed the men. When he handshake with him he used his power Death's touch on him.
