52.Today, Richard had driven an Audi. For all the times Macy had been into Richard's mansion, she had never been to the garage.This was because there was always someone to bring the car over whenever she wanted to go anywhere and there was no need to thus go to the garage.She such didn't know how many cars Richard owned but by the look of it, there must be several.Macy wanted to get into the back seat but she realized that the car only had one door.To get to the back seat, one had to lift the gunshot seat and Macy didn't know how.May opened the front door of the vehicle and crouched to talk to Richard."Boss, could you take care of Macy tonight? I have somewhere to be, please?" May asked and Macy wondered why she needed to be taken care of and she almost spoke but heard Richard's monotone grunt as he accepted May's request."Thank you boss," May said as she stood back up and smiled at Macy."See you on Monday for the photo shoots of the second promotional poster.Take care of yo
53.Macy was just sitting on the bar stool minding her own business and planning on her mind what to tell Richard or how to get out of their lives when she heard a commotion.She turned and saw several girls dressed like wanna be socialites walking towards the bar."Barman, give us the most expensive wine you have," one of them said and Macy lost interest in them.She was here to think and not even such unlearned girls would take her mind off that.The bartender produced a bottle of wine and gave the ladies and gave them some wine glasses."I thought that this club served only high class people.When did they start allowing cheap whores in?" The girl who had asked for the wine asked again.Macy was the target but she didn't hear what the girl had asked because her mind was on other 'more important' things. When they didn't get any reaction from Macy, they were happy and since she wasn't concentrating on them, they wondered how to go about it.They left for upstairs again and Macy ask
54."Just promise me that after you see what I can do you will leave her alone," Jesse screamed but Richard just smiled without saying anything."Okay, bartender, fill up everyone with whatever it is they are taking and put it on my tab," Jesse said angrily trying to prove to Richard that he had money."Beauty, men like him hide in suits and have nothing.Come to me and I will give you money," Jesse told Macy who just smiled at him without saying anything."Do we really have to do this? Just let him go," Macy tried talking to Richard but Richard wouldn't have it."He insulted and disrespected you first.Let him pay for it," Richard said.If it was him whom Jesse had disrespected, Richard would have thought of letting it go. But this was Macy.He wasn't about to let it go just like that."Is that all?" Richard asked."How much is it?" Richard asked the bartender."Three thousand one hundred and eighty cents," the bartender said and Richard scoffed."Why are you scoffing, can you do tha
55.Richard was done with people thinking that they could do whatever they wanted with his businesses and his personal life.He wondered where they got even an inkling that he was a weakling after disappearing for five years.So, even if he had asked May to set up a fake auction for truffles to catch the thief, he still wanted to work on it by himself.He wanted to keep reminding these people that he was back and he wasn't gonna standby and watch as they disrespected him.It was time they realized that Zeus still ran the streets of DC.You stay out of his way and he does the same for you and you trample on his dignity and he makes sure that you won't live to do it tomorrow or to even think of doing it.He also discovered that he had become softer since he had become a father.If it was before, he would have, for instance, killed Cassy a long time ago.The reason why he had taken pity on her was because she gave him the opportunity to be called a father.He had gotten rid of her and if
56.Jose Alberto Diaz was a Mexican who had come to America to search for a better life.Like any other immigrant, he was chasing the American dream that promised endless fruits.But when he landed in DC after so many trials and suffering from the boarder to Texas and across to New Mexico. He did this by hitching rides here and there and walking across deserted roads because the last thing he needed was get arrested with no papers and get sent back.He had little money for food and to call his agent to ask for directions and such. He settled in New Mexico for a while until someone told him that there was a job he could do as a chauffer in California.He took a bus that took him hours across Arizona to California and by the time he was getting there, fake papers had already been prepared and he now had a 'permit' to work in the US.This was the life Jose had been dreaming about and he was happy that his agent didn't fail him.He became the driver of one Gerald Stone and Gerald was a g
57.Jose sat there wondering what answer to give.He did not want to double cross his old boss because he was the man he was today because of Gerald.Also, he could not say no to this man because he seemed to be even better than his boss.Jose was also afraid of the fact that this man knew everything about him.This man seemed to be even better than Gerald when it came to getting information about people.He wondered when this man had started investigating him because he had been here for less than two hours.The last he checked, he wasn't in any American data system and he thus wondered what ways this man had used.According to Jose, for the man seated across him to know who he was and know even such minute details about him, he must have taken a very long period of time."When did you start investigating me?" Jose asked."I hadn't met you until you walked through my doors carrying my truffles," Richard answered truthfully.What Jose didn't know was that it was true that Richard hadn
58.Richard was a grifter other than being a hit man and a business man among others.As a grifter, he was able to read people's faces and manipulate them.That night after picking Macy from the bar, he could tell that she was conflicted.He knew that she would run away from him the first chance she got and he blamed himself for going on her too hard.He shouldn't have kissed her.But should he have let someone else kiss her? He didn't think so.He didn't regret the fact that he kissed her. It felf so right.He decided to take precautions to make sure that she stayed.He didn't want Mel to face another heartbreak from being left by someone she held dear.He thus would keep Macy close for Mel's sake; or so he told himself.He thus drove very quickly to Royal Apartments where they had gotten Macy an apartment.As he was driving, he called his brother.By now, Asher who worshipped his older brother was used to being called at odd hours for favour's and all.But he never regretted helping
59.By the time Macy and Richard were pulling to the driveway towards the main house, Asher had already done his part and returned to his mansion just next to Richard's.Asher had been an avid supporter of his elder brother since they were young and he was always behind Richard in everything he did.He knew how cold his brother was and when Richard clocked twenty five and there was no sign of a girl or any marriage looming in the corner, his parents decided to take matters in their own hands.They thus used the person nearest to him and whom he trusted: Asher.At first, Ash was against it. He could not bring himself to betray his brother. The person who trusted him.But his father threatened with taking him to Mississippi or Louisiana to study there.Ash didn't want to leave home and so, he took his father's deal.He one day took Richard for dinner as they usually did and as their father had commanded, he put and aphrodisiac in Richard's drink.They had already prepared a girl from on
