Chapter hundred one
Bryan felt a mix of emotions as he drove away from the Horace estate. His conversation with Jenkins had left him with more questions than answers, but he was grateful for what little sense of hope that their discussion had awakened in him. The uncertainty surrounding his brother's disappearance still lingered, but he felt a sense of determination wash over him. He was one step closer to uncovering the truth, and he was determined to find out more and at the shortest time possible. As he arrived at Ace Security Services, a sense of purpose settled in. He had arranged to meet with one of his sources, a reliable informant who had promised to provide valuable insights into the robbery that had occurred at his family's estate. Bryan's mind raced with possibilities as he entered the office. He was eager to gather any information that could lead him to Josiah.With a deep breath, he approached the reception desk and introduced himself. The receptionist greeted him warmly and led him to the

John had just named his price and showed how corrupt he really was. . "Half a million," he repeated, his voice steady.John nodded, his expression unyielding. "That's the price, Bryan. Take it or leave it."Bryan hesitated for a moment, weighing his options. But he knew he had to get his hands on that information. He pulled out his phone and opened the banking app, his fingers flying across the screen as he initiated the transfer."It's done," he said, his eyes locked on John's.John's face split into a wide smile, his eyes gleaming with greed. "Excellent," he said, his voice dripping with satisfaction.He turned to the cabinet behind his desk, his fingers rifling through the files until he found the one he was looking for. He pulled it out, a thick folder bulging with papers, and handed it to Bryan."This contains everything you need to know about Josiah," he said, his voice low and conspiratorial. "His current whereabouts, his recent deals, his associates... it's all in there."Brya

Bryan woke up with a start, his eyes blurry and his mind foggy. He was lying on a mess of papers and documents, his notes and research scattered all over the bed. He rubbed his eyes, trying to clear the haze, and sat up slowly.He looked around the room, taking in the chaos that was his workspace. Papers were scattered everywhere, some torn and crumpled, others marked up with notes and highlights. His laptop was open, the screen still glowing with the words he had been typing before he dozed off.Sighing, he swung his legs over the side of the bed, planting his feet firmly on the ground. He stood up, stretching his arms and back, and made his way to the bathroom.As he was about to move to the shower, he decided to play a call to his wife, Claire. She answered on the first ring, her voice bright and cheerful."Hey, Bryan! How's it going?""Not great," Bryan replied, his voice low and serious. "We have less than four days to find the intruder who invaded the Oscar family house."There

Bryan took a deep breath, trying to compose himself, his anger and frustration evident on his face. He realized that he should have anticipated Maxwell's reaction, just as Claire had warned him. He tried to reason with himself, thinking that he needed to approach this differently, that confronting Maxwell head-on wasn't going to work. "You're right, Mr. Maxwell," Bryan said, his voice measured, trying to sound conciliatory. "I apologize if I've overstepped. But I implore you, please, just look at the evidence. It's not about betraying your trust or accusing your staff falsely. It's about uncovering the truth and ensuring the safety of your family and business."Bryan's words are laced with a hint of desperation, hoping that Maxwell will listen, that he will see reason. But Maxwell's expression remained unyielding, his eyes cold and unforgiving.Maxwell's sneer cuts deep, his words dripping with condescension. "I should have known better than to think you could help me, Bryan. You're j

Bryan turned to look at the lady who was wearing a pink apron and hurrying after him with a bonnet. She wiped her greasy hands on a small towel and looked at him with shifty eyes. “I don't recognize you, why did you call me?" He asked, wondering how a domestic servant was able to recognize him at the Oscar mansion. He had been mistreated there for as long as he could remember, none of the servants paid any heed to him. But when he suddenly recovered, all that they could do was avoid him because they hadn't treated him well while he was still unconscious and his wife used to bring him to a few family gatherings. They were all ashamed to even address him and so they kept away from him entirely. "Sir, wait!" she whispered again, her voice barely audible.Bryan turned to face her, his curiosity piqued. "Yes?"The maid hesitated, glancing around nervously before focusing on Bryan. "My name is Maryam, sir. I've been serving the Oscar family for many years."Bryan's eyes narrowed slightly

Bryan stepped out of his car, the cool night air hitting his face as he walked briskly into the dimly lit club, the heavy door creaking shut behind him. He had decided to follow his instincts and meet with Maryam alone, without informing Benjamin. The maid's words had resonated with him, and he felt a sense of urgency to hear her out. He could always discuss with Ben later, he quickly decided. As he scanned the room, his eyes adjusted to the faint light. The club was a far cry from the upscale establishments he was accustomed to. The air was thick with the smell of cigarette smoke, sweat, and cheap perfume. The patrons were a rough bunch, their faces hardened by life's struggles. Bryan's gaze swept across the room, taking in the shady characters that lurked in the shadows.He spotted Maryam in the corner, her eyes fixed on him as she nursed a drink. She looked out of place among the club's regulars, her demure dress and nervous demeanor a stark contrast to the revelry around her. Bry

As the plane touched down at the airport, Bryan stood at the terminal, his eyes fixed on the arrivals board. He couldn't help but feel a mix of emotions - excitement to see his wife, Claire, after her long trip to Paris, and annoyance at having to spend time with his mother-in-law, Freda, who was standing beside him. He would rather be anywhere else, but he knew he had to be here to welcome Claire back home.He had a lot on his mind but right at the forefront was Claire. Her two weeks trip to Paris was finally over and Bryan wished more than anything that she'd had a very happy vacation. Although he highly doubted that with all the calls that he sent her way. He always had one bad thing to report of the other and clearly she'd not been away from the screen of her PC either. She'd been trying to figure out who could possibly be behind the robbery. That was how she'd discovered the transaction into a certain worker's account and right then, as Bryan thought about it, he had a feeling th

As the limousine drove down the streets, Claire's exhaustion seemed to deepen, her eyes staring vacantly at the passing environs. Bryan's anger simmered just below the surface, his gaze fixed on Freda with a mixture of disgust and contempt. How could she do this to her own daughter, he thought. She clearly didn't care how she felt, her aim was to deliver just as the stiff old man had instructed. Finally, the limousine turned into the driveway of the Oscar family mansion, the gates swinging open with a soft creak. The security guards cast Bryan a weary look, nodding at Freda and Claire before whispering something into the phone.As they approached the mansion, Bryan's thoughts turned to the secrets he had uncovered about Arnold. He knew that he had to tell Claire, but he was running out of time. Freda's presence and the ominous feeling surrounding the mansion made him realize how better it would have been if Claire had heard what he had to say alone, away from her family. He wondered

Chapter hundred nine
The entire Oscar family waited tensely for Arnold to arrive . Grandfather Maxwell's eyes narrowed, his voice growing more menacing by the second. "Arnold should be here by now. I summoned him fifteen minutes ago!"But Freda, never one to miss an opportunity to taunt Bryan, jumped in before anyone else could speak. "Grandfather, please don't be fooled by this spiteful boy! Bryan's just trying to discredit Arnold because he knows you prefer him over him. He's jealous, plain and simple! We all know Arnold would never do anything to hurt the family, he's a young and respectful boy from a decent family."Grandfather Maxwell's face turned a deep shade of crimson as he turned to Freda, his voice low and even. "Freda, that's enough! I won't have you speaking for Arnold or defending him. I have summoned him, shall speak for himself."Meanwhile, Maxwell himself didn't look convinced, he turned to Bryan and asked, "How can we trust this evidence?!" Bryan's eyes never left Grandfather Maxwell's

The entire room was now filled with angry faces glaring at Arnold. He felt his blood run cold. Desperate, Arnold turned to Grandfather Maxwell, his voice pleading. "They're lying, Grandfather! They're trying to tarnish my reputation, to make me seem like a fraud. But I assure you, I am still the rightful heir of the Mack family and I'm worthy of your daughter."Claire shot him and ugly glare, "I'm still married, remember?” She asked slowly and hissed. But no one paid attention to her. Maxwell looked so disappointed that he began to shake his head in disgust at the man who was still making a fool of himself before the entire family. Arnold was very frantic, he took a deep breath, he was simply blurting words in an attempt to convince the entire family. "I've been living in that small apartment by choice, Grandfather. I wanted to simplify my life, to focus on building new businesses in the city. I didn't want the luxuries of the Mack estate to distract me from my aim."Arnold's eyes d
