Before they knew it, Margaret had disappeared, so she boarded a cab back home. An hour later, Danvers drove back home to drop Rhina before going out again to meet his secretary Pearl.

Rhina just got home and was yet to drop her things. She looked worn out from the stress her mum brought on them. Margaret, on the other hand, didn't seem bothered about the whole situation.

She sat down comfortably on the sofa. As she walked towards the dining table to place her bag, Margrate said coldly with a solemn expression “ From today, this home can only accommodate one master. That's either me or Danvers. So you should think about how to resolve that” she said.

Rhina was taken aback. A few moments ago, while in the hospital, he mother didn't show any signs of dissatisfaction. What changed all of a sudden?

“ Mum, I don't get the reason for all these. What's wrong with you? She asked.

" What's wrong with me?” Rhina exploded and said defensively." Danvers doesn't respect me anymore. He no longer

    After Danvers met with pearls and she gave him all the details of what has been happening in the company, Danvers took her out to have lunch and when they were done they walked out of the restaurant to their various cars. Pearl bid him goodbye and left with her driver while Danvers walked slowly towards his car. He was immediately stopped by the roar of an engine, and when he looked, the person who stepped out of the car was none other than Raven. Danvers smiled and acted like nothing happened by proceeding to move forward, but he was yet again rudely interrupted. “Hey you piece of trash, you dare not walk out on me," Raven said, stepping out of the car. “What do you want? Danvers asked " A spineless worm like you shouldn't be asking me what I want” " Really?” Danvers scuffed. " Since I can't get Rhina to myself, I will make sure I destroy her carrier, so that she will have nothing to feed on anymore and you will be regarded as the bad luck and sent out of the house, then I will

    “Are you trying to defend him now or what? Rhina, so you choose to lie just to clear his name? Margaret asked. " Mom, whether you believe it or not, it's the fact. So you really think I can withdraw such a huge amount of money from the company account and grandma remains silent up till now, or condone such an act?” She asked expressionless. Mom, you really think Grandma wouldn't find out if I took more than 1 million dollars? She asked again this time with more pressure. Margaret knew the type of woman Lady Dabby was. She wouldn't say much if the amount was small, but once it exceeds one million, she definitely wasn't going to tolerate it. Moreover, Rhina was the person in charge of the account since she was the project manager. She was to be in charge until after the project was over. It would be funny and odd to withdraw such an amount of money in just a short period of time.She looked at her Sophie,Danvers, and then her mother “if it weren't for him, so you think you will be d

    Her own words fell on her like a basin of cold water, and she instantly became cold. Her mind kept imagining how Danvers was the lost son of a wealthy rich family who had been found recently, but the thought was ruthlessly destroyed by Sophie's words. “ But if he is from a wealthy family, why would he want to buy a second class house?”" Those cars alone have drained all that he managed to save from work.” Margaret interrupted. After saying those words, she became cold once again, thinking of how she would react towards Danvers if he was rich. But if it turns out that he was simply pooling their legs, her reaction was never going to change. Instead, she planned on making the house even more unbearable for him. “So he has the mind to disrespect me with nothing in his pocket? Who does he think he is? Margaret asked.Rhina walked into the living room and saw her mother lamenting. She knows how money minded she was. She has even told her on countless occasions to divorce her husband

    Danvers had cleaned up himself and was resting on his mat. Rhina, on the other hand, sat on the bed, panting with anger. Danvers secretly looked at her with a lot of pain in his heart. “this whole thing is driving me crazy. What's wrong with Mum? She is becoming unreasonable as the days go by.” She didn't even realize when Danvers looked at her because she was filled with anger, and there was no other way or place to express it other than there.Danvers was already used to such kind of life. Because that has been part of him for the past few years, but when it comes to Rhina, it caused him a lot of pain because she had endured a lot of pain. Being maltreated and disrespected for the past four years made him have a heart of stone. He didn't even bother to take care of them. Staying in that family, he had learned to be patient. If not, then he would definitely actualize the bastard son in law that they all said he was. “Don't you feel hurt by all these things my mum is doing to you?"

    After getting a series of rumors from the other family members, Lady Dabby quickly organized a brief meeting. When everyone was seated, she did a grand entrance intentionally, making the others wait on her. It was so sad that such a mistreatment was being carried out by. Those who claimed to be rich. But that didn't bother them. They continued to make themselves the laughing stock. After the old lady took her seat, only then was any of them dared to sit. Danvers, as usual, was not sitting on the table with the others. Rather, he was paired with the servants. Stephen looked at Zara with a nod, and she immediately spoke “Rhina you have bought two cars already. When do you intend to tell Grandma?”When the old lady heard this, she was stunned. It was okay if she had a new car but buying a second one, this was uncalled for. “Rhina you know your position is really enviable, team lead. You have only been a team lead for only a short period of time, and you already bought two cars? How

    The room suddenly dropped dead, and if even a needle fell on the floor, it could be heard loud and clear. Danvers' words made the whole house to be silent while glancing at him with a funny look on their faces then suddenly, thru broke out laughing hard and holding their belly while others wiping off the little bit of tears that came out of their eyes. They were all looking at him with a funny look while laughing at him. The look on their faces was one full of misery, mockery, and disgust. “Danvers, aren't you tired of being ridiculed and looked down upon by everyone? Do you even have the mind to come up with such a big lie? Or wait, let's be clear here: Are you trying to ease up the atmosphere by making us laugh with all you just said? Stephen asked while trying to hold his stomach, which hurts from laughing too much. Zara, on the other hand, her cheeks were red due to so much laughter. “Oh my God. It's been a while since I laughed this hard to the point where I even cried a lit

    “Rhina it is evident that you didn't live well ever since your father died, but do you think that's enough reason to steal from the company? To the extent you think we will be too dumb to realize it? The old lady ignored everything Danvers had just said because it was impossible for him to have money the way he has always been. All her efforts and interrogation were centered towards Rhina. “Grandma lady, I have said all that needed to be said and even if you ask from now till next year, my answer still remains the same but if you think you do not trust me, I can rush down to gold corporation and get the documents for you to carry out an audit" she said looking at the old lady fearlessly. The old lady was stunned at her sudden baldness. Rhina was so fearless and confident in whatever she was saying because whatever she was accused of is what the other family members were doing so she was so confident in saying that lady Dabby should go through the company's account.

    Still at the dining, Marcus and the others were talking about the new house. They couldn't wait for the 10th to come so quickly so that they could see what they've pulled up. If it was a luxury home, they would go ahead and tell lady Dabby, but if the house in question was old, they would see it as another opportunity to laugh at them even more. Margaret was so angry that the house thing got to their ears. She had intended to just rent an apartment for a few days and deal with Alice, her friend. She never knew that they had an idea of what was going on. If she invites them over and they find out she told lies about buying a house just to belong and impress, she would be mocked to death. The idea of her wanting to book a house for the event had not reached the Dabby family. otherwise, it would be another topic of the year. “Margaret, are you seriously not going to invite us during your house warming party?" Marcus asked provocatively. " This something to be happy about, if you inv

    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. As soon as other media houses saw the footage, they immediately connected to it selling his idea even more. The next day, other companies and businesses started rushing in to sign up under the Danvers' Alliance to gain protection. “ If I tell you that I am not proud of you, then I must be a liar!!" Patrick, Danvers' uncle said. And he chuckled a little. " Thank you"Danvers didn't end there. He made sure to trace where Emile and Peter were hiding. As he was still talking to his uncle, he received a call about the people who unanimously wanted to see him go down. “ I need to go, I have urgent matters that need my attention!"

    The journalist tried to walk into the company to ask further questions but was not given the opportunity. Maxon, Xavier and the other company guides made sure none of them entered the office. 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. After seeing what has been happening over the media, the reaction of the population was instantaneous as they started withdrawing from the Blackwell Building. They stopped shopping there and regarded it as an area or a mall that was out to see the people dead. Five months later***********Items in the building started going out of date. 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 was in his living room and when he recieved a call from an anonymous number. He was hesitant at first then later decided to hear what the person had to say. “Hello?" Danvers answered inquisitively. “Hello, my name is Louis Jeck and I am sorry to bother you this evening" “That's okay! How may I help you?" 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
