Chapter 71Nathan groaned and turned to his left. He could feel a hand slowly making its way from his legs up to his chest. Even though he wasn’t fully awake, he could tell that someone was trying to revive him from his slumber.“Wake up Nathan!”“No,” he muttered under his breath and hugged his pillow tightly. He began to receive several taps on his chest. “Wake up.”Nathan opened his eyes slowly and arched a brow. Someone was sitting by the edge of the couch. He couldn’t see the person through the haze that was covering his eyes but he knew someone was seated there.“Good morning!”Nathan quickly sat up and after wiping his eyes with the edge of his palms repeatedly, he could now see clearly.“Mike!”Mike smiled and adjusted his tie.“When did you arrive?” Nathan asked with his gaze fixated on the wall clock by his right.It was barely 7 am and Mike was already in the training room, neatly dressed in one of his exotic tuxedos.“I arrived a few minutes ago so I decided to come strai

Chapter 73Nathan sighed and threw his head backward. Now, his parents were involved in the whole identity thing. Mike pointed a finger at Nathan, looking straight into his eyes. “Lest I forget, you must not reveal your identity at the millionaires club too,”Nathan turned to Mike with a quirked brow. “Seriously?”“Speaking of rivals, a lot of them will be coming for you especially the sons of your parent’s rivals so keeping your identity a secret at that party is essential,” Mike said. Nathan was short of words. “You must win the bidding Nathan.”Nathan fell back on the bed with a sigh. “I’m damn serious Nathan. You have to win the bidding so that you can become president of the millionaires club.” Mike stressed. Nathan was lying on his back on the bed. He turned away with another sigh. Mike strode toward his side and towered above him. “Stop giving me this defeated sighs young man. The Alcantara family always stays on top.” Mike told him. Nathan instantly slipped into deep

Nathan tucked his phone inside his pocket and began taking strides toward the famous Phoenix pavilion. His classes for the day had just ended while Henry and Charles were left with one more class.He had sent a text message to them, requesting that they meet him at the pavilion immediately after their class.Nathan got to the pavilion, an open space, roofed and surrounded by bars where students visit to rest or hang out. He walked up to an empty round table and settled on one of the chairs. The pavilion had a series of round tables with chairs placed around them.There were just a dozen of students in the pavilion chattering while the rest were going through their phones. After seating, Nathan pulled out his phone and began going through his Instagram feeds while waiting for Charles and Henry to join him after their class.Meanwhile, Charlotte was walking past the Pavilion when she caught a glimpse of Nathan. With a smile, she began walking up to him.“Hey!” she said after reaching th

Chapter 77“No. I’ll be attending the party with Greg.” Charlotte supplied. “he has told me about and have given my consent.” She added and giggled afterward. Poor Charlotte, Nathan thought. She seemed to be running all over Greg who obviously cared less about her. “Will you be attending the party?” Charlotte threw the question at Nathan. As far as she was concerned, Nathan might not be wealthy and influential but with Mike on his side, everything was possible. “I’m not sure if I’ll be attending the party,” Nathan replied. “Okay. She placed her left hand on her chest. I’m not going to miss it besides Greg told me he’s going to be there so there’s no way I’m not gracing the event.” She maintained. Speaking of Greg, Nathan sat up. Now that Charlotte had mentioned his name several times, Nathan remembered that he had scores to settle with Greg. “What are you thinking about?” Charlotte demanded after noticing the sudden change in Nathan’s countenance. He was staring into the distanc

Chapter 79Nathan was alarmed by Annabel’s gestures and when he turned, their eyes met. Nathan quickly turned away, avoiding her like a plaque. Even though Annabel was surprised to see Nathan sharing the same table with Avery, she decided to use the prospect to her advantage. “Well, I can see that someone is trying all he can to mingle with the rich since he will never be rich.” Annabel spat. She was gawking at Nathan, her arms folded across her chest. Charles leaned toward Nathan and whispered into his right ear. “Let her be!”Nathan sighed. He had no intention of calling her to order. Annabel went on. “I must say that you are a smart boy Nathan. You have a way of pushing yourself into the right places. First, it was with Henry and Charles and now, you get to sit with Avery.” She broke into a laugh and began to create applause. “Bravo!”Seth, who was standing next to her was smiling. Avery dropped her napkin and groaned in frustration. “Why is Annabel creating a scene?” She ask
