An hour later, Andrew's car screeched to a stop in front of the don Chester clubhouse. The lights outside were bright and inviting as Andrew tried to take in the environment of the club house before stepping out of the car .

Andrew heaved a deep sigh as he walked towards the entrance.

Though he still had doubts that he would be able to get the Rootox herb here ,deep down ,he hoped to be proved wrong .

Benita’s life depended on this herb ,and there was nothing he wanted more than laying his hands on the damn herb .

“Donchester.” Andrew whispered the name of the club house to himself.

He tried to note as many details about the place as he could. If this place is capable of leading him to the Rootox herb , then he'd give it a try .

Andrew concluded and made his way to the entrance

“Hold on . What are you here for ?” The security guard held out his hand ,obstructing Andrew from going in.

“I'm here for an auction” Andrew replied calmly,ignoring the man's spiteful gaze

This had just made his day ,and he couldn't wait to lay his hands on the herb “Before we commence ,this is additional information ,as usual everyone present in this room knows the rules . Any herb that isn't available physically,we bid for the location instead” Mr Koin said and Andrew heaved a sigh , he had hoped it was the herb itself and not the location ,but regardless ,it was still the same . Now he knew it hadn't gone extinct , he'd do whatever it took to lay his hands on that herb . The room was dead silent as everyone's gaze remained glued to the figure standing on the stage,waiting for a go ahead order to start the bidding . “ Now ,shall we begin?” Mr Koi

    “I'll take it for fifty thousand dollars.” A voice started the bidding from the back. The room turned their heads to the head bald headed man and burst into a loud guffaw "You are not supposed to be here ,brokeass" "Go get food with that petty change you just mentioned" The man lowered his head in shame as the men shaded and made mockery of him . Andrew watched the display of everyone and sighed. There was nothing he hated more than being in the company of old men like this, who seemed to think life revolved around them and everyone else worked for them. “Hundred thousand dollars.” Someone else yelled loudly. “You should use your money to take a trip to the Maldives, poor one. I'll take it for two hundred thousand dollars.” An extravagantly dressed man yelled and the room became filled with laughter as the previous bidder bowed his head in shame. Andrew watched the man walk out of the room with his head bowed. He smiled at the sight. That man was the same person who

    The room suddenly erupted with laughter after several minutes of silence. It started from an old man who couldn't believe Andrew had just spoken and soon it spread all over the room, even the group of reserved men were laughing at Andrew for no reason. “Who does this young chap think he is? Some sort of prankster or excellent joker? Boy, if you don't get the hell out of this room and let real men pay for their herbs.” The man who laughed first commented but Andrew ignored him and stared at Mr Koin who was still in disbelief. “S..sir, are you sure you mentioned the right price?” Mr Koin stuttered, still in shock and disbelief. “ Of course the boy has no idea what he's saying. Young man, you must think this is child's play but it's not. The men here are men who hold keys to several places in the world that your wretched ass can never dream of, so quit dreaming and take this last chance to exit this room.” Another man spoke but Andrew remained undeterred. At this point, he not

    Mr Koin finally made it out of the midst of the crowd he'd been locked in earlier. He walked up to Andrew with a big smile on his face and pulled him closer. “We should go to the private room sir. Everything about the Rootox herb will be revealed to you there.” He said. Andrew nodded and began to follow him when a gruff voice suddenly stopped both of them in their step. “Stop. You can't give it to him.” Andrew turned to see who had stopped them and it was one of the five men he had been watching earlier. Mr Koin paused as well to stare at the man who now commanded the attention of the room. The herb master seemed confused as to why the man would stop him when the deal had been finalized. Andrew sighed and glanced at the door. He hadn't expected them to give up the herb without a fight after he noticed their determination to get it earlier. “Why do you say that, sir?” Mr Koin replied cautiously as though he was picking his words carefully to not offend the man. “We bidde

    “I'll be setting a task and whoever wins will leave with the location of the Rootox .” Mr Koin declared before turning to face Andrew. “Your money will be refunded if you lose but you have to partake in the competition first.” He said and Andrew nodded. He beckoned to one of his workers and soon, he walked in with a computer. The men in the room watched with rapt attention as the herb master proceeded to give the rules and details of the competition. From their looks, one could tell that they'd lost interest in bidding for any other herb, instead, all they wanted was to watch who would win the Rootox. “Now, this computer belongs to one of my old masters who had certain confidential and important messages stored in it . However, the computer was attacked by a bug one day and ever since, every computer expert, I mean the best in the field have tried to fix the bug but nothing they did has proved to work.

    The next day, Andrew set off for his journey to the location he'd gotten last night after his win against the five formidable men at the clubhouse. Nita town. While watching Benita sleep the previous night, he spent his time trying to find out as much as he could about Nita town. He wasn't surprised by what he saw but was only thrown off by the circumstances surrounding it. According to the research papers he had read , the Nita town was once one of the biggest, richest and most powerful of all the four towns that made up the Nashville city. They had the best of everything. In battles, they were unbeatable, their army was a group of indomitable people who were determined to crush whoever went against their precious town. They had fertile lands that could make anything grow, they planted the best of food resources and often made great harvest when it was time. These food plants were sold to other towns and thus they generated revenue for their town without borrowing fr

    For centuries, the leaders of Nita town tried to prefer a solution to their problem but nothing they found worked. The herbs failed, the armies failed and every other thing they tried failed and disappointed them. They knew it would take a miracle to find anything that would work against the beast and defeat it but they didn't lose hope. Everyday when they returned to their normal lives, they worked with hope that one day they would find a savior that would free them from the shackles of this beast, and at night, they stayed locked up in their houses. After a while, one of the leaders came up with a plan to offer to give anyone who could defeat the beast by any means, whatever they wanted. They were willing to give everything they have just to see the beast defeated. Several people tried but ended up as meals for the beast. Soon, people stopped challenging the beast and waited for a miracle. Nita town was the only place on earth that still had the Rootox herb . So Andrew

His assistant trailed behind, younger, quieter, clutching a sleek black briefcase.Morin stepped forward, straightening his collar and clearing his throat. “This,” he announced with pride swelling in his voice, “is Dr. Cross.”Gasps followed. The Ashton family stared as if royalty had entered their home. Eyes widened. Jaws slackened. It was as though he had summoned a god, not a doctor.“You actually brought him?” Aunt Monica blinked hard, like she didn’t trust her own vision.“You must be joking,” someone muttered from the back. “Dr. Cross? Here?”“Oh my God,” Someone said under their breath. “This is serious.”Dr. Cross gave a slight nod, scanning the room with mild detachment. His gaze was piercing but not unfriendly—more clinical, like he was already diagnosing everyone from across the room.Aunt Monica sprang

There’s no illness Dr. Cross can’t cure.”Anastasia blinked. “Dr. Vanton Cross?”“Wait—Dr. Vanton Cross?” Aunt Monica cut in, her voice rising with sudden excitement. “I know him!” she nearly shouted, turning sharply toward the others. “He was trained by Doctor Ambrose.”A murmur rippled through the room.“Doctor Ambrose’s apprentice?” someone asked, skeptical, as though the name alone needed confirmation.“You mean the Dr. Cross? The best apprentice of Dr. Ambrose?” another chimed in, their voice echoing with disbelief.“Ye

Time was slipping through their fingers and something needed to be done before it got out of hand .“I can heal him,” Andrew said, his voice steady, filled with certainity and boldness The moment those words fell off Andrew's lips , all eyes shifted to him. Their judgmental piercing gazes, pinned on him .Aunt Monica turned, her eyes sharp and unforgiving. “What do you know about curing disease and saving lives?” she hissed.“Not much,” Andrew replied. “But I can be of help.”The room turned colder with her glare. “Shut that mouth of yours. No one has time for your nonsense.” She snapped angrily Anastacia spun toward him, eyes red and brimming. “You stressed my father out with that little stunt you pulled earlier. This is all on you.

    Suddenly Mr Roman collapsed The music paused mid-beat as gasps broke out through the crowd. Mr Roman's tall frame crumpled like paper onto the marble floor,right where he standing seconds ago. For a long second, no one moved. Everyone was left stunned as they gawked at Roman's lifless body. Within the blink of an eye , Anastacia’s heels clicked sharply as she rushed forward, hunkering down to her dad's position. Mr Roman lay motionless—eyes rolled back, lips parted, skin already turning a pale shade that wasn’t natural. “Dad!” Anastacia cried, shooking his body for a reponse. “Someone help! Please!” A man in a navy-blue suit pushed through the crowd, dropping beside Mr. Roman with practiced urgency. “I’m a doctor,” he said quickly. “Everyone give him space!” The crowd immediately parted around them. The doctor’s fingers moved fast—checking pulse, lifting eyelids and beginning compressions. His calm voice barked instructions to nearby staff.“Get me a light and keep

    Immediately, they all stepped back, avoiding eye contact with him. Now, they were all beginning to have pity for Andrew instead because they already believed he wasn't going to survive what was coming next. As the second in command of the most fearful and powerful underground world thug, Hunter commanded respect wherever he stepped his feet, and no one dared to touch anything or anyone from their region of the underground world which was the South Glory underground. Especially if that person wanted to remain alive. “See what you’ve done to yourself and us. Why would you dare touch him?” One of the guests complained afterwards, suddenly switching sides. “You should have just learnt how to mind your business. You don't have to interfere in whatever has nothing to do with you.” Another guest supported the other, and on and on did they go about berating Andrew for what they already considered to be a grave crime. “He is not someone of your caliber. You shouldn't have touched h

    Now it was evident that his plan had failed and he had to hurry with a new one or else he was going to get disgraced and probably thrown out. Morin was in a hurry to get Andrew out of the way so he could end up with Anastasia instead. He knew that with him around, and his plans involving him failing, his marriage with Anastasia was not going to go through. And by all means he needed to get married to Anastasia, even if that meant dealing with anyone who stood in his way. Justin, on the other hand, was just as restless as Morin. Since both of them had been the executioners of the evil plot, their reputation was on the line, especially now that inspector Amos had confessed. “Alright everyone,” Justin walked to stand in the middle, clapping in order to draw everyone's attention to himself. “It is now clear to us that we have made a mistake by following the false rumors which spoke I'll about our dear brother in law.

    Finally, the time for the party had arrived, and the hall was bursting with activities. From people chatting away, and the low, comforting sound of music that filled the decorated hall. The servers could be seen walking around with trays of drinks and champagne in their hands. When it was time to get the party going before the main event took place, Mr. Roman walked towards the front row and drew everyone's attention with the clicking of his glass. “I must firstly thank you all for choosing to make time and come celebrate with my family. Thank you for that.” He began his statement, wearing a huge smile on his face. Everyone smiled back and patiently waited to hear more of what he had to say. “I'm sure that we're all still aware of the reason for our celebration today.” He paused for a while, the smile on his face immediately washing away while a downcasted look, one laced with pain and disappointment. “However, I'm sad to say that my heart and that of my family has been

    It was like one of those nights when the Ashton family always had enough to celebrate. It could be about their evil schemes finally coming to a sensible plot, or it could be that as usual, they were always one step ahead. They were all seated in the large and undoubtedly spacious living room, bearing smiles on their faces and gladness in their hearts. Finally, one of the family's dreams was going to come to pass. “Oh, finally.” Anastasia groaned loudly. Not the kind of groan that held any form of regret, sadness or pain. But the one filled with relief. Every member of the family seated, and who equally understood what she meant either burst into a loud laughter or chuckle. “I'm so happy for you Ana. You finally get to be free.” Her aunt Monica said, a smile of satisfaction crested on her face while she helped herself with a glass of champagne from the table. “I can't believe he really thought I was going to get married to him.
