Chapter 51: He can't be Harlan Smith
"This is crazy," was the only thing Harlan could say before walking away from her.If she were not a robot, Harlan would have bet on anything that she is insane. He called Kelvin."Man, are you at home?" "Yeah. I am bored.""Let's hang out. I will come and pick you up," Harlan said and walked outside to his car.Some minutes later, he was pressing the doorbell by Kelvin's house. Kelvin was dressed by the time when he came out. He grinned at Harlan."Seems you got into a fight," he pointed at Harlan's head.Harlan rubbed his head, a sharp pain reminded him that he shouldn't be putting his hand closer to the wound yet."Yeah. Jason was at it again. But yesterday, I didn't allow him to get away with it. I got back at him.""The first time I will be hearing you say that.""Gotta act like that, guy. I don't get angry ea

Chapter 52: Enemy
"What the heck!" Someone exclaimed."I knew it!" The woman who had attended to Harlan and Kelvin earlier shouted."I knew he meant trouble the moment I laid my eyes on him," she walked over to him, giving him a look in disgust."I am sorry, I will get it fixed right away," Harlan said, desperate to leave the place."What are you doing with Harlan Smith?" The woman asked Harlan in a whisper.Harlan stared at her in surprise, "what do you mean?""What else does my question suggest that I mean? I know the other guy you came with is Harlan Smith, but I am yet to know what your relationship with him is. You are a troublemaker and anyone can notice that from the way you are dressed," the woman said, still keeping her voice low."I don't understand what you are talking about. I am going to get people to get this place fixed." Harlan said and walked briskly away.He was grateful t

Chapter 53 :It will all be okay
Those words offered relief that Harlan had never thought they would be capable of offering.He unlocked the door and Jack opened it."Are you okay Sir?"Harlan nodded."I lost the man just as you drove away. I will get him soon. I am sorry that had to happen, Sir."Harlan smiled and waved his hand in the air."It's okay. Inform Kelvin that I am too busy to see him today. I will call him later in the weekend so that we can hang out."Jack bowed slightly and closed the door.He watched Harlan drive away. He let out a sigh. He has seen worst scenarios than this but he was worried about Harlan. He seemed too much like a gentleman for what might happen later on to him. The thought had him wondering if this is one of the many reasons why Mr Smith had hidden Harlan until now.Even though Harlan Smith had not been announced as Harlan Smith, things had started happeni

Chapter 54: The traitor
Jason's hand subconsciously held his face."What are you trying to say? That Grandfather is telling a lie?" Richard asked angrily."Dad...""Shut up. You idiot! Who is your father?""Hey, two of you should save us the stress of watching your silly scene. And you, Richard, stop pretending as if this isn't part of the plan.""What plan are you talking about, father?" Richard asked his father, anger written all over his face."Were you not not the one who came up with the plan of lying about not knowing Harlan Smith? I have known Jason since he was born and he has never lied. Don't make Jason take the whole blame now that you have been caught," Grandfather snapped.Richard turned to Jason and stared hard at him, "you see the disgrace you have brought on me, you idiot? When I was young, I didn't disgrace my father but now, it seems you are trying to pay me back for what I didn't do."Read more
Chapter 55 :The research
Some days later. Harlan was in class, the lecturer had left on the note that everyone should check the school group chat for the group they fall in respect of the research they were to do on a topic."With the invention of new technology, what is the future for information law? Are we, legal scholars, going to have a chance or will it be high technology CEOs who would define laws we have to live by?" The lecturer had said."The group that comes up with the best piece will win a trip to vacation — you guys will be the one to choose where you want that to be. And, any group that wins, the participants already passed this semester's exam. If you fall into that category, you have nothing to be scared of, as marks will be awarded to promote you to your final year in college," the lecturer had said."There are three hundred and six students in this department and I have divided you all into thirty one groups. Make sure to locate your group and sta

Chapter 56: Return of Roger
"You remind me of Maria. She amuses me a lot everyday."Hell, who the heck is Maria? Elizabeth could feel somehow as she wondered if Harlan already had a girlfriend. She knew Harlan Smith cannot be her boyfriend, but seeing him have that damn cute smile on his face because of some girl made Elizabeth sad. "Oh, really?"Harlan smiled again, "seriously, there was one evening when she told me something very funny. My first thought was that she is insane, but you know, that can never happen."Elizabeth smiled uneasily. He mentioned evening. For a guy and a girl to be together in the evening means their relationship has gotten to an extent. She was sick of her own thoughts."Mind if I get you something in the cafeteria?" Harlan asked."Well..." She couldn't reject this offer. Since he already had a girlfriend, there is close to no chance of spending time with Harlan in the near future. She has to make us

Chapter 57: The two guys
Harlan's hand hung in the air."What is that supposed to mean, Roger?" Elizabeth frowned."Don't you see how he looks? You know the stuff about evolution? I don't know much about it but, he looks like some fore fathers. So outdated.""Hey, Roger. That isn't something pretty to tell someone you are meeting for the first time," Elizabeth scolded, but Roger wasn't going to take that. He walked closer to Harlan who has managed to put down his hand now."I don't like how you look," Roger told him.Harlan shrugged, "who cares?""I don't like how you talk too.""That doesn't have anything to do with the research we are to work on," Harlan said flippantly."Yo, man, do you know me?""I don't think so.""On the stage, I am Bobby. Still don't know me?" Harlan took a closer look at Roger. There is only one Bobby he used to hear of, and that

Chapter 58: A burglar
"You're brilliant and I admire that." Elizabeth finally found something reasonable to say.Harlan smiled in relief. He had thought she would tell him that other than the fact that he was Harlan Smith, nothing drew her to him."We will see in two days time," Harlan said as she waved at him.He smiled at her. The car soon pulled away. Harlan thrust his hands in his pocket and walked to his car. Jack opened the door for him and he got in."Anything about the guy on my trail?" Harlan asked as Jack started driving."No news."No news means good news.He checked if he had messages on his phone. There was one from Madame A. A couple of ones from the group chat.He checked the one from Madame A first.'You can trust Elizabeth.'Harlan replied 'okay'.He checked the group chat and realized that something interesting was going

Chapter 59 :The big scary secret of the Alberts
There was no single hair on his head. Harlan wondered if the guy had a young voice or maybe he was really young. But... Are there still young guys who prefer having all their hair shaved off? Harlan hadn't seen guys like that. "What do you want from me?" Harlan asked edgily."I don't like talking too much so I will get straight to the point. Who are you to the Alberts?"Harlan frowned, "what has that got to do with you bringing me here?"The guy adjusted his grip on his gun, as if telling Harlan that you don't talk any how to a man with a gun."I am twenty five years old and I have served about five jail terms."Again, Harlan wondered what they had to do with this, but he knew better than to say it out. He couldn't see the guy's face because of the facemasks."Oh," Harlan muttered."Of all the five times I have served jail terms, I didn't do anything wrong."

Chapter 60: Wallace Stone
Harlan rushed inside the building with the drugs in his hand, he had barely heard how the pharmacist prescribed that the drug be used before he had left.He saw the guy on the floor, his face turned up and his unhurt arm holding the hurt bleeding one. Harlan rushed to him, bent over and started taking out the drugs in the plastic bag."I got the drugs, try to sit up. You will be okay in no time," Harlan said.No reaction from the guy. Harlan shook him gently. Still, no reaction. He stared at the guy's face. There was a smirk on it, but taking a closer look, he realized that the guy wasn't breathing any longer.Harlan froze as the realization dawned on him. The guy was dead."Hey, guy... Get up... I will take revenge on your behalf, but man, you have... You have to get up!" Harlan said, trying to persuade himself that he wasn't talking to a dead person. The smirk on the
