Chapter 091
Chapter 091 William mostly tried to put on a brave face. He believed in himself. He understood that him and his family's businesses were bringing a lot of advantages to Oscorp. This was the only thing that made him calm in this all issue. This was why he had made sure his son understood how delicate this matter was. William also made him understand that this issue had to be dealt with as soon as possible. He told him to make his girlfriend understand that she did not need to collect anything from her husband, who was soon to be her ex. Anything and everything she needed would be provided by Richard and his family. Chantelle also understood that, that was why she was going to the court tomorrow without the intention to collect anything from Marcus. Every party involved in this divorce case wanted it to be an open and close case. What William and his son, Richard did not know was that Marcus had already figured out their last one of thoughts. And he w

Chapter 092
Chapter 092 Zeke knew he could not be helped by anyone if he wanted the respect he deserved. This has been the reason why Hammond had decided not to allow Zeke to come and see him too. Now, fast forward to today, he was a loved man in the headquarters. He was really respected by every worker in the headquarters. He was also known by all of them. Zeke liked the feeling he always felt when people greeted him and they bowed, no matter how slightly with respect. It was a feeling of being greater, being above and better than anyone. This feeling had been his landmine. It would be his undoing along the line. This was what he had not realized back then. And this was what had happened to him and put him in the situation he was going to be in very soon. This, however, did not stop Zeke from enjoying his work, he had always liked bossing people around, and this was an avenue to do that. He of course realized that he was not the overall boss of everything here. Remembering th

Chapter 093
Chapter 093 Zeke had always been the kind of person that liked to think that drinking made him think clearer than ever. And with the truth being the most important thing, Zeke actually thought really well with little alcohol in him. Not too much, this has been discovered by Hammond and he had told Natalie, who had in turn told her then boyfriend. However, it was funny because Zeke kept forgetting the part of "little alcohol”, so he started off taking it little by little. His thinking would get faster, and his understanding would become really swift. This was like a miracle. The only problem was that, the more he took, the slower his understanding became. Zeke might have known this for a while, but he never chose to believe it. He kept watching the game as he was drinking, a glass of the finest bourbon in his hand. Zeke was still dressed in his suit from earlier on that day at work. He looked like a businessman who had come to whirl away time. The pe

Chapter 094
Chapter 094 Zeke mostly nodded and kept on watching him. The head attendant tried to sweet talk him. In fact that was all he had done throughout the night. Trying to sweet talk him to spend more money. However, after a while of trying, the head attendant has figured something out. After a while of trying his best, he figured something out. It seemed like Zele was also a businessman. A good one at that. Though he had seen Zeke in the suit, however, a lot of people wore their suits to the casino regardless of what they did for work. However, Zeke was a real business man, and it seemed like he was really good at what he did. So, all the pleading and trying to convince Zeke to spend more money fell on deaf ears. But, after a while,the head attendant noticed something, Zeke would do what he wanted, he was slowly increasing the limits of his bets. And in the meantime, the bottle of champagne in his hand had almost been finished. When Zeke had started playi

Chapter 095
Chapter 095 Sir, we would also not mind to keep on seeing you at the casino. Your presence surely brings a lot of light to the casino, and of course, you also get a lot of money from the casino.” Zeke was looking at the head attendant, surprised at what was happening. He understood why the head attendant looked really respectful. He understood what was going on. It was a familiar tactic he had used on several occasions as a businessman. You basically had to butter up a customer, and make them feel really special. At the end of the day, they would likely do what you wanted from them, as long as it was not too excessive. They wanted him to come back and spend a lot of money just like he had done that first day. Zeke however, did not bother. He knew for sure that the next time was going to come for sure, and of course it was going to be coming sooner or later. Zeke would soon be known by everyone in the casino and those who worked for it, and of course the own

Chapter 096
Chapter 096 Two days later, when the information came in, he opened it up and started reading it. He was going to read it before calling the owner of the casino, just in case. It was just him being thorough. It was something that was normal for a good businessman. When he started reading it though, his eyes lit up. They were bulging, almost as if they wanted to jump out of his face. His face was a picture of excitement and disbelief. The man that was investigated seemed to be someone who was deeply related to Oscorp. They were going to need this man. He quickly stood up and ran to his boss's office. This was of utmost importance. His boss was Clement Argent, he was the first son of Maignan Argent and was a really hard working person. Even though he was the son of one of the most important persons in Oscorp, and even when he knew he did not need to work really hard, he still did. He was a young man that was really interested in business, just like his fa

Chapter 097
Chapter 097 Everything that was said now, sounded so… cruel! But what could he do? His boss was a notorious man who was known for being wicked. He dared not say this out to his boss. Clement was notable for being really cruel and not easy to understand. He liked acting on a whim. He looked at his boss's face and saw him smiling. It was a smile that looked absolutely wicked. The young man shivered for Zeke. He suddenly felt a touch of pity for the man called Zeke. It did not seem like he would be escaping from the palms of Clement anytime soon based on this plan that has been made for him. He however did not dare show that look of pity on his face. His face just showed a look of someone who was not bothered by everything he was told. And this was the best thing to do. He knew what his boss could get. Clement was basically a terror to everyone that worked under him. Though he had been told about it, this was the first time he was going to be witnessing it l

Chapter 098
Chapter 098 The casino owner decided to leave immediately. If he left now, he would be able to reach Oscorp Corporation before it was the closing time of the workers there. After finalizing everything with the head attendant, Andrew, he left. After half an hour or so, he got into Oscorp, and made his way over to his business partner's office. The casino owner had just asked for information on Zeke, whom he was still amazed at how the man could spend the amount of money he spent in the casino in a day. He did not want to harbor someone who would bring the police knocking on his door. Running a casino, even though legalized, was still considered as “shady business” by the police force. This was the reason he went to Oscorp the first time, and it was also the reason that had made him go back there right now. The building of Oscorp Corporation in Lagos was quite a really big one. Though it was not as big as the Krafth headquarters, it was one of the biggest ones in the city.

Chapter 099
Chapter 099 The game had to be played in a way that the amount he was meant to win would be really high. This was meant to bait him into playing. He would not want to stop. If he was meant to win three times of the money he was going to bet, the casino owner had to make sure the money he was meant to win would be at least seven times instead of three. The only issue was that the games were going to be rigged against Zeke. He could not win any of these games. But how was Zeke to know, he could not. He would think he was playing a regular poker game. The opposite was going to be the case though.The plan was set in a way that Zeke would not be able to understand. Now, after winning for three days straight up. Zeke would have made at least three times more than the amount he had when he first started coming to the casino. This was meant to be a great confidence boost for Zeke. On the fourth day when the losing would start, Zeke would still be so sure of himself an

Chapter 100
Chapter 100 In the meantime, while he was acting as their spy, Zeke would be given back his car, which he would use to go to his workplace everyday, but that would be all. Zeke would have to come back to the casino every night,where he would have to sleep as his house deeds would still be with them. That was the plan. The casino owner sat in silence. He was staring at the young man, who had an emotionless look on his face. “This is from higher up, way higher up, and everything must go according to the plan,” the young man said. “This is really serious, so you must not think of doing anything that would put your family in danger,” he threatened. The casino owner was also familiar with how things worked at Oscorp; he shivered after he heard the threat made against him and his family. Though he felt a little pity for Zeke, it was only for a second. He knew what he had to do, and he would do it according to the letter, without stepping a toe out of line. H
