Chapter 72
Lucas walked down to the train station to board a train headed to Belcraft group of companies. It would take approximately thirty minutes to get to the nearest train station which was a twenty minutes long walk.He plugged in an earpiece as he settled into the back seat. He didn't care if anyone stared at his swollen lips– he'd tried concealing it, but it only made it look clumsy.The train screeched and came to a stop at the nearest terminal. Lucas made his way to the exit and got down, with his earpiece still plugged in, he was oblivious of his surroundings. Belcraft company came to sight and he quickened his steps. He still had to return back to school in time for classes."Good day ma'am," he greeted one of the staff who gave him a scornful look, scoffed and looked away. Lucas was getting used to it, that's what you get when you're a bottom feeder none of their actions came as a surprise to him anymore. He was going to deal–Lucas was jolted from the reverie when he bumped into a

Chapter 73
Lucas left the company in a hurry and walked towards one of the idle taxi. He got in and the driver reverred the car to life,"Hold on tight!" The driver warmed before he burned out the light off his cigarette and drove at high speed to the mansion.When the car pulled up in front of the mansion, the driver turned around and gave Lucas a weird look, "You better hurry if you want to stand a chance," he said and took the dollar bill Lucas held.Lucas couldn't believe his ears but he tried to keep his acts together, "... A chance at what?" He asked.A bland smirk rested on the driver's lips, "You came here in search of a job," he paused and looked at Lucas intently, "Perhaps as a guard or cleaner," he let out a mocking laugh and igniter the car back to life.For the life of him! Lucas battled with the throbbing to punch the driver so hard his jaw break. Of course he was at the mansion in search of a job, who would ever think he was affiliated in anyway to the belcraft.Instead of acting

Denver couldn't believe his ears. The rightful heir? This odd looking man. Denver narrowed his eyes and took in all of Lucas' features, he was good looking in a very annoying way and that only irked him the most."The rightful heir?" Denver knuckles turned white. He still hated him and that revelation only made him detest Lucas the most."So am I…I am–"The old man cut in, "We're not sure yet…until the DNA test proves otherwise,"Lord Randolph wasn't one to mince words. He was as perplexed as Lucas was right now when Denver first walked into their lives. He wouldn't throw caution into the wind and cast Denver away, for what it's worth Denver could be speaking the truth.Denver shrugged, "Yeah…I understand, we should do a DNA test,""Right away…" Lucas cut in, he'd been silent for a good twenty minutes trying to wrap his head around what was happening.Lucas' words only made things worse for Denver. His audacity and guts was something that was getting on Denver's nerves, he felt like r

Ella paced around her room, disturbed and confused at the same time. Time was of the essence, the company was gradually in ruins and there was no headway."Why not invest in another company?" She suggested to her father who sat on his chair mopping. He looked pale from so much thinking, all he worked for. All he sacrificed his life for was crumbling right in front of his eyes and there was little or nothing he could do to salvage the situation.He shrugged, "None of the companies we reached out to wants to make an alliance with us, we tried all we could but…""Father…" Ella called out as she moved closer to her father. She needed to act fast, she couldn't just sit back and watch her father wallow in pain.Her father raised his head to look at her, "Ella maybe we could just sell the company,"Ella's eyes widened in shock, what in the world was her father talking about. Sell the company? This was their heritage and now he wanted to sell out. Not when she was alive, "We have just one hop

Chapter 76
Lucas walked to the train station angrily. He'd gone out of character in the presence of his grandfather and although he felt bad, he couldn't control his anger at that point.He slouched into the chair and brought out his phone to see that he had missed Emily's call, she'd also dropped a message.MEET ME AT THE ROOFTOP. The text said. He slid the phone back into his pocket and straightened his shirt. Denver had almost made him lose his mind and he was doing a very bad job at keeping his act together.When the train got to the terminal, he quickly made his way back to his dormitory to have a cold shower and have a change of clothes. Unlike him, he'd cancel out on going to class for that day. He was already in a really bad mood and he feared he'd break a bone if anyone got on his nerves again.Lucas made his way to the rooftop, located at the farthest part of the school. Emily was already there by the time he got there. "I'm sorry I kept you waiting," he said. She was sitting on one

"Hey beautiful," Denver flashed his most rehearsed gentlemanly smile at Emily who found his character rather too disgusting to even want to have a conversation. Besides she was with get man which also made it disgusting and rude.Lucas clenched his jaw, What on earth does he want now? Before Lucas could make sense of what was happening Denver opened the door and got down from the car and he held Emily by the hand– in a bid to mark his territory.Now that he was rich… rich? Pfft! He was wealthy. Now that he was wealthy, he could afford the luxury of standing up to anyone who tried to oppress him. He had the means and money to do that without batting an eyelid."Denver… get out," he drawled… too bad Emily heard him. She looked at Lucas with a confused look on his face.The only reason Emily didn't ask Lucas right there and then how he knew the stranger was because she didn't want to make things more awkward than it already was. Denver on the other hand totally ignored Lucas' warning and

Chapter 78
After Lucas had walked Emily back to her house and watched her enter her room, he took the next available taxi back to the mansion.He was seething with anger…that was an understatement, he could kill Denver if he set eyes on him. He brought out his phone and texted his grandfather.I'M ON MY WAY TO THE MANSION. He needed some sort of miracle to lighten up his mood, but maybe that would be an illusion as long as Denver was in the picture.His phone rang as soon as the message went through. "Hello son, what's the problem?" Lord Randolph asked, he knew his grandson to a great extent. Lucas wouldn't come to the mansion unless it was very important that he did– this was the second time in a day which was more reason to think about his actions."I'll be there in no time, we have to talk," Lucas said, careful enough to be discreet.Lord Randolph sighed and said some inaudible words to someone, "Alright then, I'll be expecting you," even though Lucas didn't respond to that, he nodded and hun

Chapter 79
Emily was back to her house in the countryside for the weekend. Although this didn't sit well with and that's because of the torture she always faced back at the mansion.Everything fell apart almost at the same time and she couldn't quite put her finger on what might have gone wrong. Maybe her father was right after all that she had brought bad fortune upon them. The family business was on the verge of tearing apart.She held a deep breath when the taxi stopped her in front of the mansion. This was two of the only valuable things remaining– the house and the company which is now a shadow of itself.Emily pressed the doorbell, she strained her ears for an approaching footsteps to get the door but all she got was…nothing.She turned the doorknob, luckily it wasn't locked– which was completely and totally weird. Emily pushed the door and stepped in, the next thing that followed was a ceramic vase thrown in her direction.'There we go again' she thought to herself. They were at it again,

Emily stretched her hands to take back the invitation card from Claire who already saw it coming and held on to it tightly. "What do you think you're doing?" Claire snapped."Give that to me," Emily said. Claire had always hated her and would do anything to constantly show it but trying to do this was like a sword was passed through Emily's heart, it hurt so much.Clair put the invitation inside the breast pocket of her jacket, "Take it if you can,""And what the hell is going on here?" Emily's stepmother said from the stairs. The noise from the two ladies had caught her attention.Clair brought out the invitation and handed it over to her mother, "Maybe you should take a look at this,"The lady took the letter, opened the invitation and read through it. "A dinner date with Denver Randolph… heir to the Belcraft group?""Yes…" Claire said excited, she'd never give Emily the chance to leave the house not on her watch."And the invitation is directed to…" she paused and looked at Emily w

The waiter gave him a curt nod and left, "It's nice to see you…""Claire…my name's Claire," she chipped in again. This was like every girl's dream– having a date with the heir to Belcraft was beyond belief yet it was happening."Claire…" Denver repeated, wrapping the name around his lips. He stared at her face taking in her features. She was pretty…beautiful even but not as Emily, her dress was perfectly suited, exposing an explicit amount of cleavage. If he propped his hands into the dress everything would be in the open.He stared at her, she didn't look like she'd mind that happening. Denver ran his fingers through his stylishly rough hair, "I was actually expecting to see Emily ,"Claire scoffed at the mention of Emily's name. On her way to the date, she'd rehearsed her lies and set them in place so she wouldn't be caught unprepared."You mean Emily?" She said in a cold tone.Denver nodded, his eyes still playing around her bosom. Emily leaned forward so he could fill his eyes wit
