Pristine High.

It was around the early hours of the morning when bodied build men gathered together lazing about and chatting among themselves.

A place like this was usually busy with the sounds of children and teachers from the classroom. But it was shocking to see a brand new Mercedes pack in front of the school gate.

Danvers got out of the car dressed in simple attire. When the tugs saw him, they stopped what they had been doing and stood up one after the other.

“What are you doing here at this time? It's not closing time to pick up your kid, you g man, stop distracting the kid and let them concentrate” one of them said.

“I am here to see John” Danvers said stainly

All of them sneard at Danvers and shot him an angry look after they heard what he just said. John was the was the proprietor of the school and the man who puts food on their table on a daily. He was certainly not the kind of person to ask to see him on a whimp.

“Are you kidding me or what? Make me understand! You r

    They all trembled hearing what he just said.. they couldn't still place their fingers on the reason why their boss treated Danvers with so much respect. He wasn't special at anything else except for the fact that he was the city’s point of mockery and the live-in-son-in-law of the Dabby. Why then was he treated with a lot of respect?In johns office, Danvers took his seat while he stood up by his side, looking at him. They were other chairs in the office, but John chose to stand up due to the respect he had for him. “I heard that one useless Son thug is trying to stir up trouble on the real estate project? Danvers asked calmly.John nodded his head in acceptance “I am fully aware of it great master, aside me, there are several others too and they all swear of it too, eiger to have a slice of the national cake. Although John was a big short when it comes to wealth and affluence, he was, however, not the only big short in the city. There were other big shots as well. Many people were

    Back at home. Immediately after dinner, Margaret received a call. No one could hear what they were talking about, but her expression slowly contorted into a gremanse. “Mum, is everything okay? Rhina's sister asked, but she shot and angry stairs at her. " Just let me be!!!”She sat like she was about to say a word but couldn't find the exact words to say. Sophie just looked at her with and understood the situation, so she said “ Mum, if it requires that we spend money in whatever you have to say, then we won't go. Think of it, we have a lot of bills to pay, and though Rhina has been placed as the project lead, they are still at the basic level. You don't expect much from her now, "" Alice just called. She is inviting us to see her new home” Sophie looked at her mum and said with concern. " Going for a house worming means buying a gift, right mum? Margaret stayed silent, confused about what to do next. It would have been a different ball game if she didn't call her, but no, that s

    Looking around and raising her brows “since we are all classmates and all present here today, why don't we return the favour by visiting Margarets new home when it's ready too" she intentionally fand the flame to shame her friend even more for letting her elderly daughter marry a crab. “You are very correct. Let's use the opportunity to visit our friend, and that would be at her new palace. Whi knows it might even be big like Alice's or even more, " another said from afar." Where is your new home located, Margaret?” One of her noisy classmates asked. " You are from the Dabby clan, right? That means your house is expected to be like Alice's or even better. Am I correct, guys? They all burst into provocative laughter. Sophie bent her head, trying to hold back her tears.Margaret did the same thing for the loss of words. She didn't know how to defend herself in the presence of her classmates. So what new house were they talking about? They were basically leaving from hand to mouth, s

    Rhina looked at Danvers and smiled. He was beginning to be a man that she expected to have. Though she knew pretty well that the house Danvers was talking about was not going to be as luxurious as that of Alice, she was, however, interested to know the location of the house. Their present apartment was on the 8th floor, which made them more tired on a daily basis due to the accenting and decending process. She wished that even if the house was not in a comfortable location like that of others, it should at least have an elevator. “Are you still going to stay quiet and keep everything a secret even to me? Rhina asked Danvers while sitting on the bed. “Please do not make a mountain out of a mole hill. Talking about the house, you actually see it every day, " Danvers replied smilingly, facing Rhina. “Everyday? Her brows furrowed. If it was something that she saw on a daily basis, it simply met that the location was something that is around their residential area. If that was the case

    “Yes I did," she replied. Even though she answered, she still did not put much hope in it after Danvers mentioned last night that the house was located in an area where she visited and saw on a daily basis. All her expectations were cut short. This is because if it was in a place she saw every day, then it is located just around their house. Taking advantage of the fact that Danvers brought up the topic again, she used it as an advantage to get the full details, so she asked “where?”He stretched his hand and pointed to towards the villa surrounded by other buildings and said “there"Rhina became mute in an instant she froze like someone had just been struck by lightning before she finally gained consciousness, looking at Danvers she said. “Are you here to brag in my presence?" I don't want to get mad at you, let's just go home. Miya will surely be waiting for me to take her out,"Before he could explain anything to her, she stood up and left. It was ok for her not to believe him. I

    Rhina looked left and right to make sure no one was coming before she finally said “ even though he has not said anything to me yet about the two cars in the compound, but I am sure the two cars belong to him" Miya stood up and opened her mouth in shock “ yes I am sure he is just scared of being questioned. " And also he bought a house that is correctly under renovation” ever since Danvers told and showed Rhina the location of the house, she behaved like she wasn't interested in it so she remained quiet about it ever since then. Miya was actually the first person she was talking to about it.“Two cars!!! Worth of millions? She gasped in surprise. From the beginning, everyone believed, including her that Rhina bought the cars with company money but decided to put it on her husband. Then, adding a second-hand house to it not very long? That simply means Danvers is stinkingly rich. “And you still treat him in the same way you use to? Don't you know it's an offense? After enduring for

    After his call to the company so they could shorten the period for renovation, as much as possible, he drove off from the area back into the city.A few minutes into the road, he received a call from John regarding the bastard that is spreading news about Rhina's inability to handle the company. “Hello" he answered“After proper investigation, I have come to realize that Raven is the root of every of this problem we are facing today, Great master." “Okay great. I need you to get every bit of information that is to know about it and get back to me as soon as possible” " He is the founder of Raven's Farm Strictly for the production of tea and Continental cocoz" " That's great john” You have done well. I will look into it and get back to you on the next step, " Danvers said. " I will deal with you till you crumble on your feet and beg,” he mumbled to himself, curling a smile on his lips. “This bastard will soon reach his end, and I promise him that." Looking at the situation, Rav

    After hearing those words from Danvers, Margaret sneered. “ What nonsense are you talking about?" She asked rhetorically, not expecting an answer from anyone. What type of house could Danvers possibly buy if not of a dilapidated third hand poverty striking house. Someone like Margaret will never look at it, not to talk of going there to say. “So you think going to buy a house will impress me to change my thoughts against you? Never! It's never going to happen. I will never visit your house and let me tell you beforehand, Rhina and Sophie will not come too." Danvers smiled faintly because he knew when the time was right, Margaret would surely beg to live there. She surely will, except it is not the same house that grandma lady is dying to live in.He couldn't place the relationship between what Margaret was saying and what was at hand. It was obvious that Margaret had just knocked someone down, but she was trying to come up with an entire different conversation. He decided to ignore

    After Danvers had signed the contract with his collaborators and partners, he organized a small celebration party to celebrate the idea. The event was covered by the Eden media houses.

Danvers walked into his office followed by his two Maxon and Xavier. They turned on the television news channels and they were all happy to see the fire Danvers had just packed up. Social media on its part wasn't helping matters. Influencers hijacked the whole situation and even made things worst.

Unable to recover his debts, Raven was forced to give it out to someone else while investigations were still going on regarding the claims Danvers had labeled again

    Before Danvers could reach out to the owner of the Blackwell Building to stop him, Raven had already bought and was already in charge of the business. But that didn't stop him, he started to unveil everything that Raven had done in the past. The page he had created a few weeks back had gained immense popularity. He decided to use it as a tool against Raven and his new business. He released the first video on how Danvers poisoned his Dad and how he collaborated with Frederick, his cousin to accomplish his evil plans. People started restraining from his supermarket but with the use of influencers and some media personnels, he was able to clear his name. “ I need you to make the public believe it's all a lie, whatever That Bastard is saying on that useless page of his are all lies."“But how do you want us to do that?" One of the influencers asked.“I don't know, just do your job and I will pay you no matter the amount you need. I worked so hard to be here" they looked at him and nod

    “You have to calm down, we've got this" Danvers assured Marcel . He decided to look into the account of the lawyer who defended Raven too and also other prominent individuals whom he thinks might be related to whatever Raven was doing. On investigating these accounts, they found out one and thesame problem. Which is having different figuresin the account and another on the bank statement.“This is strange" Marcel said and Danvers laughed. “No it's not. I have encountered something like this in the past and they didn't realize it until when the evidence was brought to their faces." He said with a smile on his face. With the assurance that Xavier andaxon were both equal to the task. Turning to look at his men he asked. “ Can you fix it immediately? " Sure we can” they said with their eyes still focused on their laptops. " First we need to print out this information before it is corrected on the system.”Looking at the worrid Marcel, Danvers walked up to him and smiled. " You don

    The next day, Danvers drove to his office. While on his way, he decided to pass by the bank. Divo Bank, was the bank used by most prominent wealthy individuals in Bradon city. When he got there, he drove to the parking lot and after that, he walked straight to the receptionist area. “ You are welcome sir, how may we help you!?" A young slim beautiful young lady dressed in a corporate attire asked him. “ I am here to see your manager, is he in?"“ Yes sure, please hold on a second let me notify him of your presence" she said, picking up the fixed phone beside her desk and calling.“Sure," Danvers replied, taking a step back. " This way sir” the lady said, leading the way to the elevator and to the manager's office. Danvers walked in and the lady smiled and went back to her post of duty. As Danvers walked in, he was elated to see Marcel," Great master!!” Marcel chaired as he stood up on his feet to greet him respectfully. Danvers released a broad smile deep down he knew that this w

    Danvers sat alot in his office staring at the prices of evidence the lawyer threw to the bin and judged everything in Raven's favor, recording and chats with his associates. The more Danvers thought of it, the more he realized how pathetic the economy they lived in had become. He leaned back in his chair, with his eyes narrowed on one of the pieces of evidence he had in his hand. He knew there was something wrong and he needed to figure it out so everything would fall in place. Shortly after, there was a knock on the door distracting him from what he was trying to figure out. “Who is it?” he asked, keeping his voice steady.“Marshall,” Marshall replied with his response barely above a whisper. “It’s me, Danvers, let me in.”He hesitated for a second because he wanted to be alone and think. But Marshall was his lawyer, and on his side besides he also had the necessary guidance he needed at the moment. After thinking for a while whether yo let him in or not, he went towards the door

    The courtroom was busy with viewers from around the city and soft whispers and shuffles of papers were heard as the trial of Raven reached its climax. They had not expected it to be this way from the beginning. The room was filled up, every seat occupied by those who followed the case with a lot of interest and concern with regards to what they thought was all Danvers’ fault not knowing the person behind it had been moving freely in their midst. Among the crowd of people present were reporters, some holding notebooks in their hand, while others with cameras ready to take pictures of every event taking place there today.At the front, Danvers sat comfortably in his chair, with his hands held together on the table in front of him. His lawyer, an aspiring young man Marshall , was beside him, flipping through a thick file of documents to get a better master in case he missed anything. Across the room was Raven, the aging man who was behind all the events that led to Danvers' arrest, s

    “I would do that but I need you to tell me everything that's to know about you and this case” the lawyer uttered with a stained face. Raven looked at him and narrowed his head in shame. Then looked up at him again and he began narrating all that had happened from when he new Danvers Dad till date how he ended up in jail. " Waoow” the lawyer heased, " that's a huge one but I would do everything in my power to see that you are released." The lawyer said and left.

Danvers asked again. “ I am here to give you a vital information which I know you would need against Raven and his team. It also has to do with your company the Champions production house"“I am listening!" He s
