2023-10-16 15:44:21Brad was a bit shocked. He didn't remember seeing the man before and wondered what could have happened.
The man in the suit moved aside with a curt bow and gestured towards the luxurious car.
"Who is he? And why is he speaking with Brad?"
"Does he know him? But how?"
"How can a poor guy like Brad know this rich and handsome man?"
Comments came flying from around Brad. Even his friends were shocked to their bone marrow.
Brad followed the man to the car, with eyes still staring right behind them.
"Who are you?"
"I'm sorry, boss, for not giving you the respect that you deserve," he apologised with a short bow.
Brad didn't miss the fact that the man had referred to him as 'Boss'. So, he was definitely someone that knew him very well.
"You are still yet to answer my question. Who are you?"
"I'm Pete and I'm taking you to meet your assistant. She's already waiting for you in the restaurant," he explained.
Soon enough, the car pulled into one of the popular restaurants in town.
Arctic Circle Restaurant was just like the outback steakhouse in terms that it was only rich people that patronised it. That aside, it was strictly by booking.
Pete got out of the car quickly and opened the door for Brad.
Brad hesitated, still a bit confused. He has an assistant?
Nevertheless, he got out of the car and followed Pete inside the Restaurant.
A man stopped them at the entrance but Pete stretched out something to him and he let them enter.
They walked towards a table where a slender, yet attractive woman was. She had long black hair and she was dressed in very expensive clothes.
When Brad was near enough, she stood up and made a short bow.
And Brad saw that she was very curvy.
"Nice to meet you in person, Mr. Harrier," she said with a smile and looked at Pete. "Get Mr Harrier something to chew on."
Pete made a short bow and walked away.
She turned to look at Brad again. "I'm Ava, your assistant," she introduced.
Brad raised skeptical brows at her. "What assistant?"
Ava saw the confusion that mirrored his face. "Please, sit sir and I will explain everything to you," she assured.
Brad nodded once and sat.
Ava sat as well. She dipped her hand into her bag and pulled out a sheet of paper. She stretched it out to Brad.
"Here's the company that I have been managing on your behalf, Mr Harrier."
Brad took the sheet and perused it.
"StreamRoll?" Brad muttered aloud.
StreamRoll was a live-streaming platform that has recently become popular among students in Brad's school as well as other universities.
Ava nodded once, with a smile. "You own StreamRoll, Mr Harrier," she affirmed
Brad couldn't believe his ears. Then, realisation dawned on him. "Wait? Have you been crediting my account?
Ava nodded once. "Yes, boss. We have been crediting your account for three years now. Though, StreamRoll isn't the only thing you own. The necessary information is on that sheet," she explained.
Brad looked down at the sheet again, and this time, he assessed it fully.
He has two companies which include StreamRoll and Fast-tech which initially belonged to his father.
Brad released an exasperated sigh and looked up at Ava. "Does this mean that my father is giving me full control of Fast-tech?"
Ava nodded once. "Yes, boss. This means that Fast-tech and StreamRoll are now yours," she affirmed.
This was the reason why he had so much money and assets to his name.
"Your father, Mr Harrier has made you the heir and so, everything is now yours. Also, some well-known people in the city would like to meet you. Everyone wants to know who the heir of Fast-tech is. So, a welcome party will be hosted," she explained.
Brad released a sigh. Everything was moving so fast.
At this time, Pete returned with the waiter carrying a lot of side dishes.
Pete bowed slightly. "I'm unable to decide which wine you would like, sir."
"Just give us one of your most expensive wines?" Ava said before Brad would say anything.
The waiter bowed slightly before he walked away while Pete adjusted and stood right behind Brad.
"If there is anything you want me to do, sir, I will gladly do it. I'm yours to control."
Brad looked at Ava for a moment. A beautiful lady was his assistant.
"So, you've been operating StreamRoll alone?"
"Yes boss but it's time for you to take over. Oh, lest I forget," she smiled and delved into her bag again. She brought out a necklace. "I got this David Webb for you at Miller May yesterday. It looks like the last of its kind. It's my first gift to you, sir."
Brad stared down at the chain that he desperately worked for several days back so he could afford it for his girlfriend's birthday.
Though Brad doesn't feel it's useful anymore, he decides to accept it because of Ava's pure intention.
"Thank you, Ava."
Ava smiled, showing a set of white teeth. "We should discuss the welcome party instead."
Brad nodded once. "I will get back to you later concerning it. How about that?"
Ava nodded once. "You should have your lunch so I can drive you back to school."
Brad shook his head briefly. "Don't you worry? I will find my way out," he muttered and dived into the food.
The meal tasted nice and Brad could have sworn that he had never tasted something so delicious since his seven years as a poor guy.
"Also, I got this for you," Ava said suddenly, cutting into Brad's thoughts. She pulled out the latest iPhone and placed it beside Brad. "My contact is there In case you need to call me. Besides, we also need to meet again to discuss the welcome party. This phone should be your official one," she explained.
When Brad left the restaurant, it was getting very late. He was full already, so he went straight to his dorm.
"Brad!" Kevin yelled suddenly, just as he stepped inside. He hurried to him. "Where have you been?"
"We thought something bad had happened to you. We've been trying your number but it wasn't available," David complained.
Brad released a sigh. "My phone has a flat battery. I'm sorry for disturbing you."
David nodded once. "But what happened? Why did that man come to get you? How did you know him?"
Brad hesitated, he didn't want to tell them the truth just yet, even though they had been good friends to him since his freshman year.
Well, he had yet to process how he wanted everything to be. When he was done, he would decide how to do everything.
"I won the lottery," he announced, with a smile.
"Seriously?" Kevin's eyes widened in surprise.
Brad nodded with a smile.
The men jubilated!
"Really! I'm so happy for you! Who would have thought? So, that was why the man came to get you in such a luxurious car?"
Brad nodded briefly. "Have you had dinner? We could go grab something for you to eat, even though I've eaten."
Kevin and Daniel smiled, feeling satisfied.
"Yes, let's do that!"
"Brad! Get the fuck out here!" A voice yelled suddenly, in anger.
They all turned towards the door.
Who could that be?
Kevin released a sigh. "The students have been waiting for you. They all thought you ran away."
"Yes, they want you to go to the outback steakhouse because of what Mick said. What will you do?"

The three friends stepped out of their room. Indeed, there were a large number of students waiting for them. "You know that you can't really force him to go to the Outback Steakhouse," David muttered. "Shut up!" One of the female students, Bertha, shushed him. "It's not like you can treat all of us to dinner! Mick made it clear that he can only buy dinner for us if you come to Steakhouse. Why are you so stubborn, Brad?" Kevin moved close to Brad, in fear. "I think you should follow them. They will make life unbearable for us if we decide to stay." Well, Brad had nothing to lose. He nodded once. "Alright, I will come with you." "Better!" Bertha said arrogantly and turned to the rest of the students. "Brad has agreed to follow us. So, we should all meet at the outback steakhouse." "Yes!" The students jubilated, excited at the meal they were going to have at Steakhouse. They turned away and left one after the other except for Bertha. Kevin regarded her for a moment with surprise

“What did you just do?” Mick asked, half yelling.He couldn’t believe what had happened. He stared with eyes gone gobsmacked, at the shattered David Webb.David Webb is a necklace made of diamond stone. As a result, dropping the necklace wouldn’t make it shatter. Diamonds can only break when excess pressure is being applied."See, it's fake or why else would it break? A real diamond doesn’t shatter like that."Hot anger surged through Mick. "What do you think you just do?" Linda asked in terror. Even though, she couldn’t help but find it weird that David Webb would break so easily. But she was still going to take Mick’s side.Truly, it was fake but Mick was astonished at the fact that Brad could figure it out. When he got to Miller May, there was a buyer for David Webb already.

“I said it! There was no way!” Mercury laughed. “He must have stolen the card. He’s not worth all these waits.”“Yes, he’s obviously just in pain. There’s no way he can afford such an amount of money. His salary at the hotel is just 2000 dollars. How then can he afford 50,000 dollars,” Linda snickered.Brad was shocked. He turned to the waiter. “How is that possible? You have to try it again! Or maybe your machine is broken.”At least, he got the card earlier that day. Why would it be invalid?The waiter pulled out the card and inserted it again. He stretched it out to Brad again. Yet again, the card beeped and the waiter looked up at Brad. “It’s invalid,” He announced again.“Brad was bragging. Do you seriously think he can afford it?” Bertha mocked.“Then he needs to apologise to Mick. He’s not his mate!” Mercury muttered.“I support that. In fact, it has to apologise to every student present here,” Linda added. Bertha nodded once. “And call me godmother.”“No, I can’t accept that

Brad was shocked. Just like that?"You will be attended to now, boss," Ava assured and the phone went off.Brad went back to Kevin and David. "Brad, he's unconscious. Is he going to die?" He whimpered.Brad shook his head briefly. "He won't, I promise.""Then why is no one attending to him!" He half-yelled, frustrated.The receptionist moved towards them. She had a cold expression on. "You are disturbing the peace of the patients in the hospital. If you can't keep mute, you should leave.""We can't leave!" David fired back. "It's your duty to attend to him!"The receptionist got even more annoyed. "Leave this instant or I call the security guards to drive you out," she threatened."We are not leaving and that's it!

"I will excuse you to talk more," he muttered and didn't wait for a reply before he walked out of the room.Ava looked at Jude until he was out of the room before she turned to look at Brad again. "When your friend was shot, did you notice anything? The car or the people?"Brad nodded once, remembering what he saw. "The number plate had 'Ghost' on it."Ava's eyes went wide with shock. "Shit! I knew it!" She cursed softly.Brad stared at her blindly."We received a piece of news that you were dead. That you were killed by the Ghost," she explained.Brad hesitated as he took the information in. He regarded Ava for another moment as if he couldn't believe it. "What you mean to say is that I was supposed to die? That bullet was meant for me?"Ava nodded slowly."Fuck!" Brad turned away. His min

Mick enjoyed the rest of the night because he knew that his plan to disgrace Brad was instant. The man gave him his business card and Mick was supposed to call him early in the morning so he could take his guardians to Brad's dorm. Mick didn't know who the man really was but he guessed that he was definitely a foreigner with money and power. And he wasn't even worried about who Brad could be. That's it! Brad wouldn't get off so easily. Brad had called early that morning and in fact, gave them some guidelines for getting to the male dormitory. But he had to hurry and make sure the whole thing happened in his presence so that he could gloat about it. That aside, he planned to take some videos and spread them on students' apps, especially the StreamRoll app which is popular among students. When he got to Brad’s dormitory, the men were standing outside already as well as a few of the students that wondered what the whole thing was all about. One of the men, that looked and acted as

Brad is Amazing Fighter?” Kelvin asked, even more surprised.David couldn't talk. Shock kept him motionless and speechless for a long time.“No! No way!” Someone said suddenly amidst the silence. “Brad can never be Amazing Fighter. It's not possible!”“Yes, it's not!” Someone else chimed in. “There's a mistake somewhere!”And soon, everyone was already shouting about it.Suddenly, their phones beeped. They all stopped what they were doing and started pulling out their phones.It was a notification from Amazing Fighter. He just uploaded his picture.Everyone clicked on it and the picture that showed up on their screen made them shocked for another minute.

She stopped and turned to Brad again. “There's actually something I want to tell you.”Brad gave her full attention. “Yes, what's it about?”“Well, the thing is I won the princess of the year due to Amazing Fighter help. So, I didn't want you to think I kept it away from you when you heard the announcement,” she explained.Brad smiled. He already knew anyway.

Sophia hummed as she went about with getting ready for school. She was so happy that everything was over. She was even overjoyed that Brad was picking her up. She loved to be around him. If it wasn't for the fact that it would look even weirder, she could have concluded that she had feelings for him.But she didn't want that to disrupt their friendship. So, she was going to push it to the back of her mind.She got herself a black short gown that accentuated her curves. She was going to be proclaimed the princess of the year anyway, so she needed to dress very well.Aside, she wanted Brad to notice how beautiful she looked.If not anything, he should at least acknowledge her. She loved it whenever he did.Within less than an hour, she was already applying makeup on her face.She picked up her phone when she was done and dialled Brad’s number.

Some students walked out of the exam hall, stretching. "Damn, those questions were a shock!" One of the students said while the other clapped him on the back, laughing. "What will be will be." Brad, David and Kevin also stepped out of the exam hall, their writing materials in their hands. They had smiles on their faces and you could easily tell that the exam was turned out well for them.Rose also stepped out alone the moment Brad and his friends came out. When she saw them, she couldn't help but stare at Brad longer than usual, wondering, "could it be true ?"Ever since Cliare told her, she had been wondering, thinking non stop about it. She kept wondering if this random looking guy can really be as rich as Claire had told her. Gosh. He doesn't even look it."Rise?"one of Rose's colleagues called but she didn't hear she was too absorbed inher thoughts about Brad and his wealth."Is that Brad you're staring at?"

Rose quickly freshened up, changed into more casual wear, and headed for Rose's school.In a few minutes, she was at the school. It felt weird being in a school she wasn't schooled in. She almost felt like a mom.She laughed at her silliness and proceeded into the school. She had no idea where she would find either Brad or Rose but she kept going anyway. She was determined to meet with them, in fact, she would like to meet with both of them and have a serious talk with them.As she entered a hallway in the school, her eyes scanned the bunch of students who were rushing out of a class, and her gaze easily fell on Rose. Almost immediately, she spotted her too. With a big smile, she waved at her and Rose just rolled her eyes. She muttered something to the two girls she was walking with and sashayed her hips toward her."Now what are you doing here? I said I want you out of my life!" Rose greeted Claire hotly.Claire smiled and playfully nudged Rose on her shoulders, "Relax, cousin. Come

Found out and all that Dylan just explained to him. He was still confused as to how all of these were possible.His brows creased as he looked at Dylan, "If what you're saying is all true then Brad Harrier isn't just a rich man…" he trailed off and paused, " He is actually the head, " he broke off again, his sentences coming out distorted. His heart beats quickened as he started to grasp the real situation he was in, "That means Brad Harrier is a mafia lord," his heart skipped a beat, "one that had the power and had every legal right to take my life if he felt the need and the government would do nothing about it?"Dylan nodded tentatively, feeling sorry for his friend."Holy shit!"

Gary was just reaching the restaurant at the same time Dylan arrived too. He shook his head as Dylan suddenly stopped walking and squinted at him.As Dylan approached the restaurant, he scanned the area of Gary's car but couldn't find it. He's late? He wondered, surprised, Claire was never late to their meet up here since he always came with his car. His thoughts trailed off when he saw someone who looked like his friend in the distance, hands buried in his pockets as she swaggered toward the entrance of the restaurant, his gaze already on him.At first, Dylan squinted at him, not believing his eyes. Gary shook his head as Dylan wouldn't stop staring. Then he left him outside and went inside the restaurant. Almost immediately, Dylan joined him across the table."Bro! Did you just trek?"Gary shrugged, "I told you I needed to clear my head, didn't I?""Wow. This is new," Dylan muttered to himself. He was about to start throwing questions at Gary when the waiter arrived and Gary immed

"Hey man," Gary literally sighed in his response after he answered the call."Man," the caller, Dylan, drawled. "You don't sound good, "What's up? How far have you gone with the search for your man? Did the chick tell you who he is?"Since Dylan was the one who arranged the men he used to get Claire, he knew about it.On a normal day when Gary was his normal self, if he had been asked so many questions at once, he would have lashed out at whoever dared to try it but this time, he didn't. He only knew his friend was talking, he couldn't process his excessive words."Man, I need to talk," he pinched the space between his forehead, squeezed his eyes shut, and opened it again. "I need to clear my head." "Are you okay, Gary?" Dylan asked worried."I might lose my job soon, I can't be fine," he answered Dylan's irritating question. "What do you say we meet at the usual restaurant in…" he trailed off and his gaze slid to his desktop screen to check the time. "I'm about an hour?"Dylan had
