"Welcome Sirs, we've prepared everything according to your requests, please the car is this way." The bodyguard pointed to a fleet of cars consisting of a Rolls Royce, a Bentley, and a Mercedes Maybach. The bodyguards all wore black suits, with earpiece detailing used in their communications.Aidan stepped down from the private jet after it came to a halt in the private terminal of the airport with his father trailing behind him. A couple of days after the whole saga with Madam Doris and Jake, Aidan and his father arrived in Aelbank City as planned.He and his father were in Aelbank, the big city housing the headquarters of the Ackerman Inc. for a meeting where Aidan would be introduced as the heir and president of the entire Ackerman empire to the board.The security detail wowed Aidan, it was so tight that it looked as if it was the president they had come to pick up from the airport.They entered the Rolls Royce and soon set out to the country estate where his father's house was s

She was taken aback. She dropped the piece of broken painting she held in her hand unknowingly due to what she just heard."I'm…I'm sorry…" She stuttered nervously. "I can't let you pay for this mess I made… I broke the painting, it's all my fault for being so graceless" "How much is the painting?" Aidan asked again, this time around with more conviction than the first time he asked.The girl gaped down at him, raised her brows, and squinted her eyes at him before huffing out a sigh. "My boss sells these paintings for ridiculous amounts…" She dragged her words. "I wouldn't want to impose the expenses of my missteps on you"Aidan inclined his head upwards, took his fingers, and pinched the bridge of his nose, letting out a frustrated sigh. He rubbed his face and looked at her."I'm still waiting"She muttered to herself, doubting Aidan would pay for the painting even though he was smartly dressed up in the best suit she had ever seen. It must cost a fortune to wear that kind of suit

He ended the call as the car pulled up into the Hartford Hospital parking lot. Everyone was wowed by the luxurious fleet of cars that the convoy consisted of. They took glances among themselves in wonderment. Their eyes were glued to the cars ready to see who would come down from them.A loud gasp was heard as Aidan stepped down from the car as soon as his driver opened the door of the Rolls Royce. He brushed and adjusted his suit before strutting to the hospital lobby. The doctors and nurses on duty gaped at him in awe as he elegantly and gracefully carried himself to the receptionist's desk. “Good Day Sir” She greeted him politely, shining all her teeth. Aidan smirked knowing fully well the reason why she instantly ignored the rest of the patients and attended to him immediately–it was because he exuded wealth and power, a thing everyone wanted a taste of.“I'm here for Doris” Hearing him call out the president of the hospital by her first name without any atom of respect killed

The day of the Legacy ball finally arrived. It was held in the Elysium Club House. A club in Emergande City with restricted access to anyone who didn't meet the requirements of a billion dollars in their account. Aidan hated the fact that he was there and not his father. His Rolls Royce pulled into the driveway leading into the club grounds. The driveway was long, filled with the expensive luxury of Emergande City. His security/driver that night was Cole. He slowed his pace when they met a long hold-up of cars getting checked in, into the club.He sucked his teeth and regretted being there already. If not for making an appearance and pleasing his father, he wouldn't have shown up.The ball was held annually to raise money for charity and develop the poor parts of the city but everyone knew the money never got to them, it was just another avenue for the rich to flaunt how richer they got in under a year.“I was surprised when you invited me,” Casey said, breaking Aidan out of his tho

The car came to a halt in front of Casey's apartment building. Aidan had brought her back after her nervous breakdown.“Do you want me to walk you back?” She shrugged and drew closer to the door. “No!” Aidan giggled softly. “Thought you were ready to do anything for me?” “I was…” She dragged on and bit her lips. “But I'm smart enough not to toil with the Claytons. No one who did ever lived to see the next day” Her eyes glowed with worry and dread as she spoke.“They should be terrified of me!” “If you're doing this because of Erica…” She drew closer to where he sat in the car and placed a hand on his thigh, gently fondling it. “She's not worth it”She looked into his eyes ready for an answer she craved but it never came.She sighed heavily. “Anyway, I have a long day tomorrow, thank you for the evening.” Cole opened the door and she stepped down, holding up her flowing gown with one hand and holding her purse with the other. Aidan hated the fact that a part of him behaved that
