wasn’t going to find himself floating on some river or even worse, end up as breakfast for a bunch of lucky rats in a cold, filthy dumpster.
     
    “Hello Rich, did you call for me?” Dr. Greene asked, trying as much as possible not to look scared.
    “Yeah I did. Come in Greene.”
    “Thank you.”
     
    And with that, Dr. Greene got in. He was still working as hard as possible not to appear as though he was about to have a major panic attack. But as far as Richardson was concerned, he seemed as though he had just won the lottery. He was smiling and looking very jovial, and that just made Dr. Greene to feel as though he was being played.
     
    Just like it was the case in the movies when the mob leader makes jokes right before driving a drill through the skull of the man that he was taunting all that time. And that made him a little bit scared at the end of the day.
     
    “Look, I called you up since the board hasn’t heard from you in a while. You always come up with brilliant ideas every week. But from the look of things, it does seem as though after that last presentation, you have gone a little cold on us. Is there anything that you want to share?”
     
    And just like that, the smile that once graced Richardson’s face was gone and in its place, a very stern look. And now Dr. Greene was starting to feel as though his life was being threatened for real. But still, he wasn’t going to give himself up. The project that he was having in his house was way too important for this criminal of a boss to have his filthy hands on. As a matter of fact, he wasn’t going to give him a damn thing at all and that was final.
     
    “I am working on something that will blow your mind away. But I want to be sure about it before I bring it forward to the board.” Dr. Greene lied with a straight face.
     
    Richardson smiled.
     
    “That was what I needed to hear. I knew you were up to something you old bastard haha. You can go back to work now. I can’t wait to see it.”
    The truth was that Richardson was never going to know Dr. Greene’s little secret.
    *** 
    The confrontation with Richardson didn’t bother Dr. Greene. From the look of things, it did seem as though the only thing that mattered to him was getting to finish his machine. He figured that if he was going to do it the right way, then he was most definitely going to sell it for a very high price, one that would give him that all-important boost to leave Richardson for good and start his company.
     
    Dr. Greene would smile everything the thought of running his business passed through his mind. He knew that Richardson and his army of scientists wouldn’t stand a chance as far as competition was concerned. And even Richardson knew that jolly too well and that explained the reason as to why he always made sure that he was working round the clock to ensure that everything was going on according to plans to retain him.
     
    But Dr. Green had figured that he had been used for a very long time, and it was about that time that he made a move and left that company.
     
    But before he could do that, Dr. Greene figured that he needed to enjoy some of these top notch resources that the firm had at his dispersal. These resources were most definitely going to make sure that he was in a position to finish his time machine right on time and then kick off with the experiments, something that would most definitely give him that golden opportunity to stay on track.
     
    Getting to think all about the time machine. And all of the possibilities that he was going to achieve with that made him feel as though he was on top of the world and that gave him such an amazing feeling altogether to the point that he wanted just to kick back and get to enjoy every single thing happening.
     
    Dr. Greene also knew that Richardson knew that he was up to something that he didn’t want to share. And that was always the problem with working with someone for a very long time. They always had a way of
