Becoming A Trillionaire After Divorce 98
Angus is able to get a hoodie on and put Matilda into the car. He drives like a madman, zooming down the road like a professional racer. He keeps looking at her, holding on to her limp left hand. She is turning white from the loss of blood, but he is still holding on to the last string of hope. The police cars drive in, probably heading to his house where the gunshots came from. He doesn't stop, he doesn't care for any damn protocol, and he is not going to let anything happen to his wife. He gets to the huge estate gates and the security guard is at the front, looking at the car that is angrily coming at him. They are yelling, trying to flag him down. He growls and steps even harder on the gas, he honks at them and they throw the gates open and get out of his way. He keeps the speed up, he doesn't care for anyone's safety, just hears. He gets to the hospital and he almost crashes into a few cars parked in the emergency area. Some doctors in uniforms rush to the car, trying t

The doctor's face slacks in shock, but she recovers immediately and bows her head very deeply. "Forgive me, sir." She says. "I didn't know who you were, I would have treated you with more respect." Angus is not still used to people bowing down to him like this. He hates it, but now he knows that he has to deal with it. "I just need you to empty the hospital, just to make sure that my wife is safe." He says. "Close down the place and make sure that no one else is allowed in." She nods vigorously. "Certainly, sir. I will do that immediately." She rushes away to carry out his orders. Angus's eyes follow her as she leaves, he hears Owen chuckle behind him. "What's the matter, Master?" "I, um, I haven't gotten used to people treating me with such respect, I am used to being the loser in the room." Owens comes to stand by his side. "This is just the tip of the iceberg, my lord. Get ready for more."Angus looks at him, a small squint in the corners of his eyes. "You are calling me

Angus stands from a distance, as the burial ceremony of his grandfather takes place. It's windy, the brown leaves are blowing in small spirals that look like a spirit is in them. It's a private burial ceremony, just the clergy, Owens Daniels, and about three very old friends of his grandfather. Angus feels nothing as he watches the immaculate coffin of his grandfather descend into the ground. There are two graves closer by that look identical, they are the graves of his father and his mother. His biological parents. After the final rites have been performed, everyone leaves so that the gravediggers can come and complete their work. Owen is the only person that doesn't go away. He stands there looking into the grave till Angus comes to stand by his side. "My lord." He bows without looking at Angus. "I wasn't expecting you, you said you weren't going to." "I technically didn't. I waited for the burial to be over." Angus gives a small shrug. "I can't help but feel sorry for the

Five years later. It's been five years since Angus took a very daring decision. Angus enlisted into the army. Of course, Owens, Lorenzo, and Joanna didn't think that it was a good idea, but he's their boss and what could they have done? Despite that, Angus has completely dominated the military field. He has risen in ranks in those five years and now, he seats among men that have strived for their places for decades. He is now General Angus Knighton, a soldier respected even by the president himself and he serves alongside with men old enough to father him. He didn't need the army paycheck, and he didn't need the training, it was just something to get his mind off everything that happened to him and it worked. He is in an end-of-the-year meeting with the generals, the minister of defense, and many other men of greatness. He has just told them the truth about himself and every one of them can't hide their shocked stare. "Wait, a second." General Kendrick drops his glass to the t

Angus is completely startled by what he has heard. Sell Matilda off in marriage? Lorenzo looks sorry that he is the one who is delivering the message to Angus. "I just wanted to let you know, since you both are still legally married, and even with what happened, you haven't divorced her." Angus wipes his face with his hand. "What the fuck do you mean by they are trying to sell her off in marriage?" Angus asks with anger. "What does that even mean?" "From what I gathered, they are ashamed that the one beautiful girl of the town is now nothing but a lame daughter and they are trying to pay any man willing to marry her a million dollars," Lorenzo exclaims. "Are you kidding me right now?" Angus shakes his head. They are trying to sell her off for a million dollars?! That's not even enough to pay his house bills for a month! That's the price they want to place on Matilda?! Lorenzo sees him boiling with so much anger, but he stands still. "Do you want me to go over and… do some

"A husband?" She nods in affirmations. She stares down at the small flower that she is holding and slowly starts to take out one petal after the other. That's when it clicks in Angus' head, she doesn't remember one single thing about him. She remembers her marriage status, and that's just about it. "Where is your husband, then? Doesn't he care that you are about to be married off to one of those losers?" He points back to the house. She looks up, with very little care in her eyes. "At least I will have a husband and won't be so miserable." She shrugs. "I've heard the insults from people, my father is right. A husband is what I need." He hates that she speaks this way of herself. He wants to lift her chin and tell her that this is not the kind of person that she is. She is a boss girl, wanted by many men, and is the envy of many of their competitors. She is not a self-pitying woman who wants to be sold off like an old commodity. "I know, you think I'm crazy." She sighs. "But yo

While Matilda and Lorenzo are in the underground facility, Angus has a few things to do. He has driven throughout the night to a neighboring town. It's a small town, just a few thousand people are living here– the perfect place for a murderer to hide. He parks outside the Walmart and waits for a particular person. His hands are gently squeezing the wheel, and he keeps looking at the exit, waiting for someone. Soon a pregnant woman steps out, holding a shopping bag in her hand. She is pushing her protruding belly forward and also, holding the hand of her toddler. She looks tired and worse out, almost anemic. Angus steps out of the car and walks to the entrance. He pretends not to even notice the pregnant lady, but as soon as he walks past her, he brushes against her. She is startled, she drops her bag and the contents fall on the ground. "Oh, no! I'm so sorry!" He bends to the ground and starts to help her pick her things up. "No, no, it's fine. I wasn't looking, it's my f
