Mike walked into Nathan’s living room and met Nathan sprawled on the largest sofa. Henry and Charles sat opposite him while Larry stood by the door, he was going through his phone. Mike walked up to Nathan who flashed a quick smile at him. Mike could tell that Nathan was faking the warm gesture because he looked sore. “I need to take you somewhere.” Mike began. Nathan sat up while Henry and Charles exchanged confused glances. “Somewhere?” Nathan demanded with a quirked brow. Mike moved closer to him with an assuring smile. “I’ll take you to a place where a specialist will look at your injury. You deserve first-class treatment.”Nathan waved the offer down with his hand. “Oh come on Uncle Mike, you don’t have to get a specialist. Besides, the nurse gave me some painkillers.” He said and went for the bag of medication. Mike shook his head in disagreement. “I insist Nathan. You are coming with me.”Nathan sighed. Mike stared him straight in the face and said. “Trust me, Nathan. Yo

CHAPTER 24Nathan placed his phone on the table and decided to meet Mike downstairs. He took a proper glance at the table and realized that it was carved out of the finest mensonia wood. Everything around him was made from the best. He smiled and left his room. In the living room downstairs, Mike was speaking to a man dressed in grey plain trousers and a checkered shirt. Nathan concluded that it was the specialist Mike had earlier talked about. Nathan walked up to them and cleared his throat loudly, announcing his presence. Mike and the guest turned to face him. The man in the checkered shirt gave a slight bow. Nathan wondered why the elderly man was bowing before him. When the man lifted his head, he said “I’m Dr. Brown and I’m here to check your injury.”Mike took over. He presented the doctor to Nathan. “I’m sure you must have heard of the famous Dr. Brown Caston. He’s the best in the city and is known for carrying out successful operations, a highly skilled surgeon with experi

Chapter 26Nathan slowly opened his eyes and rolled down the Versace sheet covering him. He laid on his back and let out a clumsy yawn. He slept like a baby last night. His head still hurts but the pain wasn’t as bad as it was when he went to bed last night. He couldn’t wait for the cut to finally heal so that the headaches would cease. Nathan shut his eyes and opened them almost immediately. He quickly sat up and roved his eyes around his large luxurious room. He gasped as the realization of reality dawned on him. He went to bed thinking that the mansion, the file, and the cards Mike had presented to him last night were all an illusion but it wasn’t. Nathan rubbed his drowsy eyes with the edge of his palms and cast his gaze at the edge of his kingsize bed. The file was still there with the wallet containing the cards. He sighed and got out of bed. He was already feeling on top of the world. To confirm that the events that occurred yesterday weren’t a dream, Nathan rushed to t

Nathan strode to his bedroom with a wide grin. It was a few minutes past 6 pm. In less than 2 hours, he’ll be having dinner with Charlotte. Not only was he feeling nervous, but he was also a bit excited too. After taking a shower, Nathan decided to place a call to Larry. “Can you come and pick me up tonight?” Nathan said immediately after they exchanged pleasantries. “Of course boss. By what time?” Larry asked. Since the dinner was scheduled for 8 pm sharp, Nathan felt that it was better if Larry arrived 30 minutes early because they needed to pick up Charlotte from her house. “7:30 pm Larry.”“Noted boss.”Nathan hung up. It then dawned on him that he was yet to pick a venue for their dinner that night. He decided to check up on some awesome places in the city with his phone. Nathan pressed the phone to his chest and flashed a broad smile. The file Mike had earlier enlisted to him containing the properties he owned had names of a couple of eateries and five-star restaurants.

Chapter 30Nathan folded his arms across his chest and looked the assistant straight in the face. “Unbelievable!” he spat. Is that how they treat people here? He wondered. “Listen, sir!” Nathan began after clearing his throat loudly. He sat up. “I made this reservation a while ago and came here with my slip. I paid for this. This is my spot and there’s no way I’m leaving it for someone else.”Nathan darted his gaze from the assistant to the door where Alessandro was standing in his bid to prove to them that he knew what was going on. They wanted to buy him off his table and he was aware. The Manager’s assistant groaned in frustration. He was hoping Nathan would jump on the offer of getting a bonus since his reservation was going to be revoked but Nathan had turned out to be a hard nut to crack. “Listen to me, young man. As it appears right now, this space will be handed over to the wealthiest and right now, someone richer than you is offering to pay double the reservation fee.”
