Ashes to Acclaim: Revenge Of The Forgotten Heir Fifty Five
Aidan rambled on and on about his achievements and how much power he has. His classmates sang his praises to no small measure and that pleased him too. Jake on his own kept quiet and waited for Aidan to do as he has promised. The days passed by uneventful and the D-day came for the opening of the boutique. Jake dressed smartly although his outfit worth only a few dollars. He had his driver take him to the venue. When they were a few metres away, Jake made sure the coast was clear before he alighted from the Lamborghini that brought him to the place. As he got to the place, he saw that most of his classmates were already seated and those who came in came in style. They wore rich clothes as no one wanted to be looked down on. Jake could swear that some of them had even gone to borrow money and cars just to look up to standard. He smiled at their stupidity. They will of course look down on him today, because he was wearing a clean but cheap outfit. But their comments would not get to hi

“Hello dad,” Aidan intoned. When Valentino heard that his son wanted to take his classmates to Western Manor just to boost his ego, he readily agreed. He too was a braggard and always liked to show off and blow his own trumpet. He assured him of his support and even promised to give him extra ten thousand dollars to support him. He wanted his son to make a name and prove to others that he was richer than them and must command their respect. “Let's go,” Aidan announced excitedly as soon as he hung up. “Wow! Are we really going to Western Manor?” an astonished classmate couldn't help but voice out his opinion.“Of course. Not only that, we will have some snacks over there,” Aidan promised. “Aidan is so generous!”They all filed out of the restaurant and got ready to go. Kelly, Aidan's girlfriend looked at Jake with disdain and said,“Why is he coming with us? Do we now allow low lives some luxury?”Kelly was Aidan's girlfriend so she got as much respect as Aidan. No one wanted to di

Aidan and his classmates hit the road and drove at full speed until they got to the gates of Western Manor. The gates were magnificent and had a golden description inscribed on it. The words Western Manor were boldly carved on it. The gates alone spoke volumes and the poor and middle class knew better than to come near the gates. Aidan honked his horn and introduced himself. At the mention of the name, Oscar Valentino, the gates were opened and Aidan and his friends were granted access into the place. They parked their cars in the parking lot and alighted. They were all amazed at the beauty of the place. It had breathtaking views, exceptional dining and the services offered were unparalleled. Further down, there existed crystal clear waters with white sand beaches. The beach offered a panoramic view of the surrounding ocean and there was a private yacht for sunset cruises. The beauty of the place was beyond their expectations. “Wow! This place is so lovely!”Meanwhile, at the entranc

Jake counted out twenty thousand dollars and handed it over to the man. Aidan watched in shock as Jake did that. The money was checked and Jake was given a receipt of payment. The gates were thrown open and they were allowed to enter the place. “Jake? I know you to be a broke fellow. Have you turned into a thief too? How did you afford so much money?” Clinton was the first to speak after he recovered from his initial shock. Jake ignored him and said to Aidan,“I have made the payment. I should have your wristwatch now.”Aidan was bitter and he felt very bad about it. He didn't want to give away his expensive wristwatch but his classmates were there and he didn't want to be a person who failed in his own part of a deal. “Yes, tell us. How did you get such a huge sum?” another joined in. “I've worked so hard all my life so I can afford to pay the entry fees now.”Aidan took off his watch and said,“I will never go back on my words. Here, have the wristwatch.”To everyone who was ther

“I knew it that Aidan will let us eat to our fill! Aidan, let me order for you and your girlfriend. Waiter, get them the best dish in this restaurant because they deserve even more!” Fletcher said. They all placed their orders excitedly while singing Aidan's praises. Kelly was all smiles as she rubbed Aidan's back seductively. She was super proud of her rich boyfriend. She even took a picture of the dishes so that she could brag to her friends. Even some of the girls who were present for the grand opening were jealous of her and she loved it so much. They needed to be constantly reminded that she wasn't in the same class with them. The first table was made up of Aidan, Kelly, his girlfriend, Fletcher, Clinton and Jake. Aidan had invited Jake to sit with him with the aim of humiliating him. The tables where their other classmates were seated were arranged in such a way that they could converse easily with each other. “There's a free table. I don't want to inconvenience Kelly. She's

“Did I make it in?” Fletcher's eyes spoke volumes as he stared expectantly at Aidan. “Well, not so soon but with my influence, you will get it. The man in charge said he needs a little more time to arrange everything so that your work will be done with ease.”“Thank you so much Aidan. I can't wait to get an employee identity card from Nixon group!” Fletcher shrieked. “Huh? Nixon group?” Jake asked in feigned ignorance.“Yes, Nixon group. I'm sure you have heard of them. Behave well and Aidan will help you too,” Fletcher responded. “Nixon group does not accept employees until after a publicized interview. Are you sure you weren't rejected just now, Aidan?” Jake asked calmly. Aidan froze momentarily before he recovered and said,“What? Rejected? How's that even possible? Do you not know who I am?”“I believe you were rejected and not asked to wait. The time for the interview isn't near.”“Jake? Have you lost your brains too? How dare you speak to my boyfriend in that manner? What do

“How about I go back home and return with the money? You can see that I made a mistake in my selection of cards,” Aidan pleaded stylishly, cold sweat dripping from his face. “I'm sorry sir but unfortunately, we don't do that here. You have to pay your bills before you leave this place. Else, I'll have to call the cops.” As the waiter and Aidan argued, the accountant marched towards them. “What's going on here?” he asked. “This man made an order, ate some food and refused to pay his bills.”“How much is his bills?” the accountant asked, observing Aidan carefully. “Seventy five thousand dollars, sir.”“Sir, why haven't you paid the bills? You look every inch wealthy. I'm sure there's a mix up somewhere,” the accountant immediately took sides with Aidan. Well, he wasn't to be blamed because Aidan looked very wealthy and his outfit cost a fortune. Who didn't want to be in a rich man's good books? It wasn't everyday that one had the luxury of meeting someone who spent such money! “Of

The waiter did as she saw told, swiped the card and handed the machine to Jake so he could input his pin. His classmates as well as the chief security officer watched closely. Aidan prayed for nothing the way he prayed for the card to be declined. “Beep beep beep. Card declined.” The waiter turned and regarded Jake with scorn. “You! You still had the nerves to play tricks on us.”“Hahaha! I said it earlier, but Mr Sawyer would not believe me. How on earth do you think that this low life would own a golden master card? He surely stole it and does not know the password,” Aidan spat. He enjoyed humiliating Jake and didn't miss any opportunity to do that. He wished his girlfriend was here to watch him handle the matter properly.Jake grew angry at this point. He gritted his teeth and tightened his fists. His firm lips curved lightly and he said calmly, trying his best to stay calm. “Get another machine. That card can't be declined.”Mr Sawyer who hadn't said a word suddenly realised t
