Aiden's Heroic Comeback Chapter 10
"How much are we talking about here?" Aiden asked after a deep thought. He could not imagine Lena being assaulted because of money that he hoped he could pay. "I don't think you can pay," the lead thug growled. "How much?" Aiden asked more firmly this time. "Five hundred thousand dollars," he finally replied. Aiden was very surprised at the amount of money. It was not because he could not pay the amount. It was because he wondered what Lena used such an amount of money to do. They both lived in the same house and their rent was not up to that amount. It was probably her lifestyle. "I will give you the money," he blurted out. Lena looked up at him, the shock in her eyes was obvious. "What did you say?" Another thug asked him. He was the one who was ready to have his way with Lena first. It looked like he was more concerned about that than getting his money. Lena could only wonder where he intended to get such an amount of money to pay such a ridiculous debt. "I said I will give
Aiden's Heroic Comeback Chapter 11
Aiden rolled his eyes with a slight sigh upon sighting Melvin. He wished he could roll back the hands of time by not coming to the restaurant, as Melvin was the last person that he expected to see at that moment. As the son of a very influential billionaire in the country, and with his father making huge donations to the school that they attended, Melvin was a spoiled bully. He picked on students in school, and no one dared to say a word to him including their teachers. They were all afraid of losing their jobs, and thus, he always went scot-free with whatever wrong he did. Aiden did not say a word to him but looked at the table that Melvin had come from. Some of his classmates were having dinner, one that Aiden was not invited to as usual. He was not surprised. They hated him. Melvin looked at Lena and when he saw how beautiful and curvy she was, a mischievous smile appeared at the corner of his lips. "I'm surprised a beautiful girl like you would have dinner with a wretched bas
Aiden's Heroic Comeback Chapter 12
Melvin smiled when Lena agreed to join him at his table. He put forth his hand and she put her hand in his as she stood up and followed him to the table next to where Aiden sat. Aiden was disappointed when she agreed, but she winked at him, reassuring him that she had a plan to deal with him. He was calm after that and watched how the entire drama would unfold, almost giddy with excitement."So, what do you have for me tonight?" Lena asked Melvin as she sat at the table with him. "I want you to have whatever you want tonight, so long as I have you in my bed tonight," he said to her audaciously, to the hearing of Aiden, so he could humiliate him further. Melvin was used to getting what he wanted so long as he had enough money to throw around. Little did he know that they planned to deal with him tonight. "Alright then," Lena said to him as she reached out to touch his hand flirtatiously, pushing out her chest a little to enhance her cleavage. She was so convincing that Aiden though
Aiden's Heroic Comeback Chapter 13
Lena intended to make the whole thing more interesting. She signaled the other classmates who were having dinner to come join their table. They all gladly did as they had been looking at the amount of food left on their table. They were intent on eating their fill because Melvin, as they thought, was capable of footing the bill. Melvin smiled uncomfortably as they all came to join the table. If he could make all of them disappear at that instant, he would have done so immediately. "Are you not going to eat?" Lena asked him as he watched the other students gobble down the platter before them. "I ate before coming for dinner. I am full already," he lied with a feigned smile. His appetite had disappeared the moment he saw the amount of food that he ordered. All that was on his mind at the moment was what the bill would look like. "Have I told you of how much of a generous person that you are?" Lena asked him with a pout as she touched his arm lightly. "Wait until you see the huge d
Aiden's Heroic Comeback Chapter 14
The waiter signaled his colleague to go ahead and present Aiden's bill to him. Everyone looked in anticipation, and Aiden was aware of their stares. He took the bill and opened it up. It was just twenty-five thousand dollars. He remained unhinged as he looked at the bill and they were all surprised that there was no shocking reaction from him. "How do you intend to pay, Sir?" The waiter asked him politely. "How do you accept payment?" He asked the waiter. "You can use a card and you can give us some cash as well," the waiter explained. Aiden thought about it for a while. He would have used a card, but he thought that if he did, they would not know the amount that he was paying. "I think I will give you some cash," he finally said with a smile. He then dipped his hand into his bag and took out three wads of cash, each of them containing ten thousand dollars. There was a slight gasp from the students on Melvin's table. They were all surprised, and they started whispering wildly t
Aiden's Heroic Comeback Chapter 15
Everyone at the table went mute immediately after the suggestion was made as none of them had that amount of money to pay for just a meal. Even though they were all from influential families, they did not have the luxury of spending such an amount of money for dinner. "I'm sorry but my parents did not give me some money for this month's allowance," one of the students said, breaking the ice. As though drawing confidence from this student's excuse, the other students began to speak up."My allowance for six months cannot foot the bill," one of them said. "I would have helped but I have put the money in my savings and I can't access it now," another student said. "Can you all just keep shut?!" Melvin growled in a fit of rage. The room fell silent again as everyone turned to look at him. Melvin turned around but there was the waiter, right in front of him, and smiling back at him. "Please sir, I think that it is time to make your payment. Just a swipe of your card or some wads of

They soon flagged down a taxi, and Aiden opened the door for Lena, so she could get in before he did. They soon left the restaurant premises, and as they sat in the car, Lena was still finding it hard to wrap her head around the fact that the guy whom she had shared an apartment with for years was very rich. "So, how did you manage to get the money that you have used for all of these expenses?" She finally asked him. Aiden smiled before he spoke. "I had some money saved up, so I decided to make use of it," he replied casually. Lena was not going to buy that story and he knew it. "Come on, Aiden. We both know that driving an Uber and working in a restaurant as a waiter cannot fetch you a million dollars, just for you to spend it all up in a single day," she said. "Alright, fine," he said amidst chuckles. "I'll tell you."Aiden remembered the deal that he had made with his managers. It was not time for him to reveal his identity. He had to keep it under wraps until after a year of
Aiden's Heroic Comeback Chapter 17
Once he was done with his assignment at the school library, Aiden stood up and headed for home. It was already quite late and he was also exhausted. He used the Uber app on his phone this time and ordered a ride home. It came within a few minutes, and he smiled as he got into the car. Usually, when he went out, he would walk or use a taxi. He never had enough money to pay for an Uber, but it was enough reason to be grateful that he could comfortably afford one. When he got to the apartment, he had a quick shower. He was still very full from the meal at the restaurant, so he did not bother about dinner. As he headed for his bedroom, he looked in the direction of Lena's room. There was a bright light streaming from below the door, and there was also soft music coming from the room. He smiled and shook his head as he headed to his bedroom. He knew that she was probably busy with her influencing job again, and he did not want to disturb her. As he collapsed on his bed, he was bored

They continued with their meal and were still involved in their little argument when the restaurant door slid open. The restaurant was soon filled with noisy chatters as some boys walked in. Aiden was the first to look up, and he could not believe his eyes when he saw Jason and Melvin. He would have picked up his bag and slid out of the restaurant immediately, but Melvin had seen him already. Melvin was surprised to see him among so many girls as he did not think that Aiden was one to have the attention of all the ladies he was sitting with. He was particularly annoyed, because May, the most beautiful girl in college, was seated with him. All the guys admired her, and she was the cynosure of all eyes. Even her fellow female students thought that she was breathtaking. For the longest time, he had been trying to ask her to be his girlfriend, but she had refused all his advances and gestures. She even went ahead to call him a jerk. He had not given up so easily. He had even bought he

The board members still sat in the boardroom as they thought about what had just happened. They could not believe that they were almost on the verge of losing their jobs. Even President Maxwell had never threatened them with their jobs before. They knew that their new chairman, despite being a young boy, was going to be dangerous as well.“I think we all need to come up with a solution to salvage this situation because our new boss is not one to take any nonsense,” Mr. Adams, who was the most outspoken man among them, decided to break the ice after the long silence. “There is nothing to do here, but for us to sit up, and start putting in our best for this company,” Mr Henry, a stout man in his mid-fifties, said. “I agree with you,” Mrs Floyd, a rather attractive woman for the age of fifty-two, concurred. “I mean, we have been working in this company for so many years, receiving fat salaries, but have been doing the least work. This should be an eye-opener for us to under that we oug

Brandy went silent immediately at his request. Dakota was with him as well, and they did not seem to understand why he would want to take such a drastic measure against those companies. “Are you sure about this sir?” Brandy asked him and Dakota was listening as well. “The immediate action that you are requesting will ruin a lot of things for them.”“I don't care,” Aiden said ruthlessly. “As long as no life is going to be lost in this process, I want you to do all that you can to ensure that they are ruined. I want them to begin to beg for survival, and I want it to be done immediately,” he insisted. “If this is about something that they did, we can fix it without having to go this far,” Dakota chipped in. “Brandy,” Aiden called out. “You have never questioned me since you started working for me, so don't start now.”“Your wish is my command,” Brandy finally said. “Good. Now, arrange for the board of directors meeting, and send me that driver so that I can be there in fifteen minut

Aiden was not too enthusiastic to go to school the next day because of all the judgments that he had been receiving lately. He wished he could just stay home and be in bed all day, but he needed the degree to rub his company better. As he stepped down from the cab, an unfamiliar voice hollered at him. He turned around immediately to see who it was, and it was as though his gloomy day was brightened up in a second. He had never seen anyone as beautiful as the girl who was waving at him right now. She was fair with delicate facial features that looked like she was created on a special day. Her hair ran in long full waves that settled below her waist and she had a curvy frame that was outlined by the small dress that she wore. He stopped walking and waited for her to walk towards him. She had some books on the crook of her arm, and when she walked, her hair bounced behind her, making her movement beautiful to watch. He had not seen her before around campus and he wondered if she was a

“See who we have here,” Aiden said with a fake hand clap as he looked at the manager who was standing before him in shock. “You called me a thief and ordered for me to be thrown out of your mall, right? But here you are, running an errand that you could have easily asked one of your staff to carry out,” he continued. “I am very sorry for what happened back then. I was just trying to be very careful of thieves,” the manager said. “That does not give you the right to judge a book by its cover,” Aiden insisted. The manager did not know what to do anymore to appease Aiden. He knew that if he secured Aiden, the CEO of Vuitton Co, his business would hit the roof. He fell to his knees immediately and clasped his hands together in a kind of submission. “What are you doing?” Aiden asked him, taken by surprise. “I know that I have offended you, but please, don't let my offense stop you from doing business with me,” the manager pleaded. Aiden looked at him intently for a while, as though h

By the next day in school, everyone already knew about the lottery that Aiden won as the news spread like wildfire. As usual, everyone had their opinion about how he spent the money. Some of the students, mostly those who have benefited from the scholarship scheme in the past commended him for his efforts and sacrifice. However, other students thought that it was foolish of him to donate all his money to charity. As Aiden stepped into the school that morning, all eyes were on him. Some looked at him with admiration, while others looked at him with disgust. He decided that he was not going to pay any attention to anyone and just move on with his business of the day. Before he could enter the lecture hall, Helen, the departmental head of the students' board summoned him into their meeting. Helen had been of help to him in the past. As the departmental head, she was responsible for the welfare of the students in the department. She mostly helped those students who were charity cases

Suddenly, almost all the students gathered around the scene, but Aiden did not move a muscle. As usual, Melvin and Jason saw a body of students and decided to insert themselves in the mix. They had been looking for a perfect opportunity to get back at Aiden after the embarrassment from the previous night and this looked like the perfect opportunity. "What did you do to her?" Melvin asked him first, dragging him by the collar, but Aiden did not move a muscle. "Nothing," he replied casually as he pulled Melvin's hand away. "How dare you touch my girlfriend?" Jason thundered as he advanced menacingly towards Aiden. He was about to punch him, but his hand was held in the air. Aiden and Jason turned to see Ms Donna, their philosophy professor. "What are you doing trying to hit a student?" She asked Jason sternly as she forcefully let go of his hand. "He just harassed a female student," Jason blurted out. "I believe the right thing to do here is to report to the school authority ins

Aiden was taken aback by her guts as he could not believe that she would ask him that after what she did. "I believe that it is none of your business," he said quietly as he started to walk out of the store room. "If you walk out of that door, I promise you, I will raise a false rape alarm, and you know that they are likely to believe a beautiful innocent girl than a nerd that could be a pervert," she said to him as a means to make him stay. He took a deep breath as he stood before the door. He then took out his phone quietly and opened his sound recorder before he turned around. He knew how much of a sneaky person she was. If she threatened him that way, she was sure to do what she had said. He was not ready for any of her shenanigans at all, so he decided to comply, but with an option to redeem himself. "What do you want to know?" He asked her in a feigned defeated tone. She smirked before she spoke. "I want to know how you came about the ridiculous amount of money you have be

As Aiden got into the hall, the rest of the students turned to stare at him. They knew that he was one of those less privileged students who stayed away from such events because they could not afford it. When they began to point fingers at him and laugh, he began to feel embarrassed, but he bore in mind that he did not have to feel inferior to any of them. "I see that you succeeded in borrowing a suit for this occasion," Jason began as he walked up to him, holding Alice to his side. She was dressed in a beautiful red dress that accentuated her curves. She looked very elegant but he did not stare at her for a second time. Aiden did not say anything to Jason but kept his cool. Even though the other students scorned him, he knew that it was better that way than to engage in any banter with Jason at this time. The event soon started and everyone looked up to the podium where the principal of the school was presenting a speech. When he was done, there was a thunderous roar of applause
