CHAPTER 81
The next morning, Nathan quickly rushed to the hospital to see Marcus. He was badly hurt. Someone had beaten him severly and Nathan felt bad for not being around for him. “How did this happen, man? Who did this to you?” Nathan asked as he sat beside Marcus trying to console his friend. He had paid all his bills. His parents were there and were grateful that Nathan had come to see his friend. They were even more grateful to Nathan for clearing the hospital bills. “Just forget about it, bro. Some bad guys ganged up on me and beat me up. That’s all. Just some dickhead thugs.” Marcus lied. Nathan scanned the room for a while and noticed that his phone and even his bag was still intact. “They beat you up, but they did not take any of your possessions? Come on man, what are you hiding?” Nathan proceeded to ask. “I appreciate you coming here men, but you might want to leave. I don’t deserve you or our friendship. I did something terrible to you and…” “Shhh… I know already, Marcus an

CHAPTER 82
“Look at him, walking like he owns the world!” Dave blurted out to his clique angrily. “But I ain’t gonna lie, that dude rocks!” one of Dave’s clique said. In response, Dave gave him a very cold gaze that could freeze time itself. “I cannot possibly allow that church rat to sudenly steal all my glory. Not while I’m in Luxton University. Dave left the window and walked back to the class. He was the only one in the classroom who did not go out to meet Nathan. The whole school was proud of him for elevating their name above Eden Hall college. Princess Anastasia had been in that position for too long. Now, they had someone who had just replaced her. “So, what’s your plan?” Draco broke the heated silence. “Stacy and I are working on something. For now, you should use what he doesn’t have against him.” Dave suggested. “The fuck you’re talking about, bro? That dude has everything you can ever think of. He is a fucking billoinaire. We can't even upgrade our cars!” Bryan interject

CHAPTER 83
“Hahaha!” Jeffery laughed. “Such guts you have. You have gotten yourself in trouble, young man. You have wrongly accused me and other students wrongly. Now, you will..” “Be silent, Jeff!” Mrs. Heather commanded. “Nathan, is this true?” she asked. Nathan said nothing in response. He simply dialed the Sheriff’s number and handed the phone to her. “Hello, Mrs. Heather,” Captain Hughes began. “We would like to inform you that Jeffery Moore is under arrest for false allegations and attempted framing of Nathan Reed. We have solid evidence against him,” Captain Hughes continued over the phone. “We’ve been monitoring the situation closely, and it’s clear that Jeffery has been manipulating circumstances to discredit Nathan.” Just then, the security men in Mrs. Heather’s office grabbed hold of Jeffery. Mrs. Heather’s face grew stern as she listened. Jeffery, realizing the gravity of the situation, started to protest. “This is ridiculous! You can’t just take his word for it! I have rig

CHAPTER 84
Amanda stood there, unaware of what to say or do. She just allowed her tears to drop to the ground. “Oh, hi Amanda. What are you doing here? Your boyfriend must have left you, right?” Nathan broke the silence, his right arm still wrapped around April’s shoulder. “Nathan you.. You are with another girl, my friend. I thought..” “Hold on, Amanda. Where is all this coming from? Are we in any relationship? Why are you even crying?” Nathan asked calmly. Amanda could not find the words to give in response. Her voice was choking. The only two emotions she felt at this point were regret that she ever left Nathan when she would have stayed, and anger, anger towards April. She was ready to rip her into two. “Um, no I am not crying, i just.. I just wanted to check up on my friend, April.” Amanda lied. Seeing the two of them get so close was like a thorn to her skin. But she had made her decision. “I am fine, Amanda. Stop acting like you care about me. You have Dave probably waiting fo

CHAPTER 85
“Fuck it, bro! We should just get going. He should have gone somewhere else. It’s been fucking 4 hours.” Bryan suddenly broke the silence, pulling off his mask. He was tired of waiting. “Come on, don’t be a dickhead! I’m sure he passes here every bloody day. In no time, he will be here and we can get this over with!” Dave insisted. “Hell nah, we got a party to attend tonight. We can’t possibly miss it because of some dude! Come on, let’s hit the road!” Draco insisted. Suddenly, a car began to drive down the road. It was Nathan’s other car. Not the Egoista. As soon as the guys noticed it from a distance, they quickly put on their masks. “He’s here. I told you he was definitely going to pass through this lane. Y’all gotta believe me when I say shit next time!” Dave ordered. They pulled over into the middle of the road and parked there, blocking every possible escape route for Nathan’s car. They also ambushed him from behind, and so, there was no turning back and there was mov

CHAPTER 86
Mr. Dwayne caleared his throat, pulling the mic closer to his mouth as he peered into the crowd’s eyes. “And to conclude this speech, I just want to tell you a little story. A girl once asked her father ‘Dad, what is one possession you cherish the most that no one can take away from you?’ the little girl asked.” “Well, the father thought for a while and then pointed to an expensive painting on the wall. He told her ‘That painting costs $200 Million and no one can ever take it away from me. It is my most valuable possession I’ve ever had.’ The father replied and the girl frowned.” “What happened next will melt your heart. The daughter said ‘Do you want to know what my most valuable thing is?’ the little girl asked and her father said ‘No, well, tell me, I’d love to hear!’” “The girl took a deep breath and raised the picture that was in her hand. It was a picture of the family. Daddy, mommy, the little girl and her baby brother and their little cat. Then she said.. Mr. Dwayne pa

CHAPTER 87
The courtroom buzzed with whispers as Charles Donald made his way to the front. Some people in the court room recognized him as his father was a big business man in London. He was also a student in Elysium college, one of the biggest colleges in the city. So, he had a measure of influence. Neil, though, was not happy seeing Charles march in to be the saviour of the day. Was he not the same guy who teamed up with Dave, Anastasia and even Marcus, his fucking friend to frame Nathan? They were the cause of all this and now, Charles just waltzes in here and tries to be the hero? Neil grunted angrily. “No Neil, it’s not jealousy. You are not jealous. It’s logical reasoning!” He reassured himself. Nathan's eyes widened in surprise and relief. Why was Charles here? He was ready to speak the truth? Did Dave and Anastasia consent to this or was he doing it out of his own good heart? Nathan truly had a spot soft for him ever since they met. Charles was a bit different from his clique.

CHAPTER 88
Saturday mornings were usually warm and sombre in Witanhurst Estate. As early as 4am, residents could be seen jogging outside their homes, warming up their bodies. Nathan had joined the joggers as he had to keep fit. Today was quite different. Different neighbourhoods came together to jug around the estate. They were going to engage in a marathon race jog. The idea was implemented a few days ago as it helped people get to know the next door neighbour and connect with people from different homes. Nathan found it interesting and so, he joined in. He wore a simple short and singlet and tucked his feet into a nice pair of jogging shoes. Because he had been so busy, he had no time to get some good shoes for casualties like jogging, so he had to wear the one he used when he was still in his low poly life. It was not the best quality, not something a person of wealth and status should wear, but it should work fine as he kept them neat and sharp. He grabbed his bottle of water, slap

CHAPTER 89
Brymid was truly a really huge company. The exterior was breathtaking. Rumours had it that the building took 2 years to build on a budget of $22.9 Billion. Mr. Brad sat in his office signing some paperwork. Today was a busy day for him. He had many contracts signed with different allocations, organisations and companies all over the world. He was a truly busy man who had no time for his family. Mr. Brad was also expecting his girls to come to the hospital today. He had been trying to get them into some good positions in the company and this was hard becaue his girls did not meet any of the requirements of working as Nurses. Their college certificates were as poor as their manners. Suddnely, his phone rang. It was his boss, Mr. Fred. He quickly picked up the phone after clearing his throat. “Hello, Mr. Fred, it is good to see your call. I am pretty sure you must have some good news to share!” he chuckled. Fred simply smiled from his end. Brad always made him smile when they h

CHAPTER 90
Brad nodded, a bit surprised by Nathan's hands-on approach but understanding the necessity. "Of course, Mr. Reed. I'll make sure everyone is directed to your office." As Brad left, Nathan took a moment to absorb the atmosphere. The room was filled with his father's presence, from the meticulously organized shelves to the large, framed photos of family and important business milestones. Nathan felt a surge of responsibility and determination. This was his legacy now, and he intended to honor it. He only truly wished he had known his father. He longed for a man to call a father. Papa Sam would have filled that role, but he was now in the heavens. Elon and Fred were the only men whom Nathan could confidently open up to. But again, they were both busy men and spent most of their time working. He began reviewing the documents, losing himself in the details of the company's operations and upcoming projects. Time passed quickly, and soon the intercom buzzed. "Mr. Reed, your first appoin
