“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

Seeing the chief security officer still standing, the investor yelled, “Did you not hear me, you wretch! Don't let him escape!” But Mr Sawyer had his doubts. There was something about that young man, which was quite different from other people. Jake had a rare confidence that wasn't seen in criminals. He neither defended himself not argued at length. He just stood still and maintained his stand in a very calm manner. “That card belongs to me and I'll request you give it back. You can only accuse me if I did something out of place. I haven't even input my pin yet and you call me a thief. That's wrong according to the law,” Jake said flatly. “How dare you say that this VIP card is yours? That's impossible! You don't qualify to lay a finger on it!” “The card is mine,” Jake maintained his stand. He didn't bother going into details. Aidan, eager to see Jake whisked away like a criminal said to the investor, “Sir, why don't we let him input the pin? He doesn't know it and he'

The security officer, the waiter and the investor all dropped on their knees and begged Jake for mercy. Jake ignored them, took out his phone and made a phone call. “Relive the manager of Western Manor of his duties. He doesn't deserve to be there. And the Grey family must not be part of any project in Western Manor,” he ordered and hung up. His classmates stared at him in shock, unable to utter a word. They were eager to speak and ask questions about his new found courage but no one wanted to be the next victim. Not even Aidan. “Pray, sir. I was wrong. I'm sorry. I can't leave Western Manor sir. I'll strike myself repeatedly if that will please you . I'll kiss your feet sir…” the manager sang like a canary but Jake didn't buldge. Beep! Beep! His phone beeped in his pocket. Frightened, he took it out and checked the message. It was an email that terminated his job offer in Western Manor. Jake grinned at him and said, “Next time, you will never mess with Jake Frederick.”Then he

“Yes, grandfather.”Jake saw no reason to disagree with his grandfather this time. He loved the attention he got today, the slap and the rude shock he had given his classmates as well as those who looked down on him. He believed it was time to come out clean with his real identity. He had paid the people whom he wanted to pay back in their own coin although he had only done a little to them. The Kents had lost some contracts and their company and Vincent Winters had lost his inheritance to his brother. He had also taken care of Michael, of Golden Chandelier, helped his friend, George secure a good job and a lot more things that he couldn't count. “Good. That's all I want to hear from you. I'm very impressed. I'll send your outfit over and don't be late on that day. Jake, I don't want a repeat of what happened the last time. Remember, you are a Frederick and must dress and act as one. Lauren will be there and I want you to show her that you are the perfect man for her. Are we clear?”
Ashes to Acclaim: Revenge Of The Forgotten Heir Sixty Six
This well dressed man stepped out of the car and was ushered into the room. He was shown to the seat that was reserved for him, which was beside Lauren. As she saw the man approach, she was lost in his beauty and made up her mind to do everything possible to keep him. She loved him already. She smiled warmly at him and her lips parted ever lightly as she said the words,“Hello.”Jake didn't return the smile but he responded flatly,“Hello.”Her heart skipped a beat as she heard his voice. His voice was so nice and deep! Now that he was close to her, she observed him closely, not wanting to miss any detail of his handsome face and body. His clothes screamed wealth and he had an air of nobility around him. She looked at him, almost striping him naked with her eyes. All that was left was for him to remove his dark glasses so she could see this noble gentleman properly. He was just too handsome and cool. Jake had always been a fine young man but the troubles and poor life he went through

The dinner was strictly on invitation and no one below the top social ladder was allowed to come in. In this hall were men whom ordinary people would never have the chance to meet in their lives.
