14."Young master, it's been two months and the little miss is all better. It is time you took over your position again. That means, the operation for your leg is long due. I have booked the plane for tomorrow. But you also have a choice, instead of being flown out, we can call the surgeon here and work on you at Sora Hospital. The thing is that it will be very expensive because the doctor will have to come with all the machines required. Sora Hospital still doesn't have that department. Yes I know, your mother prefers opening more wards for children," Michael explained.They were sitting in the main office in the main Armstrong mansion that was at the center of the whole manor. This house was five times bigger than the west wing where Richard lived with Melvin. One has to have in mind that Richard's was a mansion of more than ten bedrooms. "Can't I take longer? I want to make sure that she is all better. What If she relapses while I'm away? What if..." "Young master, all is we
15. Richard sat on the plane on his way to LA. It had been three months since the operation and almost six months since he left Los Angeles. He didn't miss the place. Maybe he had a few happy memories like when Cassy and he were in love but after that, it was all a nightmare. What kept him going was the fact that he was a trained martial artist and endurance was one of the things he had been taught by his master. If not, he would have let go a long time ago. But he kept holding on to his marriage because he had truly loved Cassy and because he believe that they could still give Mel a complete home. The private jet touched down and when they alighted, a limo was waiting for them. This was one of the reasons why Richard loved Cash. Cash was a former navy seal and he now worked for the Armstrong family after falling out with his superiors. It was because of the protection that Richard gave him that he stayed with them. Cash was effective, very effective. Due to his years in the m
16. "Wait wait wait! Richard, please wait," Cassy said with urgency. "We have history...""Mr Armstrong to you Mrs. Mr Armstrong. And yes, we may have history but today I am here for business and not personal issues," Richard said and at that moment, one of the men who had identified him spoke again. "It's true. You are Richard Armstrong. Though this picture is old but it's true. He's the first son of the Armstrong family of DC. Oh, wow!" The man said with admiration in his eyes. "What? Is that true? That's where I interned. They are the best. Oh my fucking God! We always heard of the young master and we never met him. So fucking nice to finally meet you in the flesh sir," the other man said with reverence. It was clear that these two knew about the Armstrong family but the rest either did not want to believe it or they thought it was one huge joke or even a dream."Shut up! Shut the fuck up!" Old Mrs Parker said as she banged the table and the two men sat down obediently but thei
Carter Real Estate Company was one of the largest in San Diego and it had its offices in Los Angeles. William, being a man who loves night life, wanted a city that would offer him the life he wanted and that city was LA. Thus, when he took over the leadership of his family's company after his father, he relocated his offices to Los Angeles although the headquarters remained in San Diego. Richard had done enough digging and had enough dirt to bury William and the whole of his family a thousand feet below the ground. What Richard and his people had discovered was that the Carters, didn't buy houses or land randomly. No. Their victims were carefully selected. They would look for a person whose house was on mortgage and the person was struggling. They would approve them with an offer of renovating the house, or even building a house at a very cheap price.With the prices offered, the client would agree and thank God because the deals were always heavenly. Cheap and affordable and the
18.Within three days, the Carter family was history. It had been like a nightmare to William and his father. Billy didn't get any help from the Armstrongs and he was eventually arrested in DC and trying to run from the law became one of the things he was being accused of. People in California couldn't believe it. For the past several years since anyone could remember, you couldn't walk a block without seeing a Carter property. Be it a bank, a hotel, a gym, a hotel, a residential estate, you name it. Carter had ruled California for as long as people could remember. And now, they were gone just like that. What was even more amazing were the accusations they were facing: land grabbing, stealing, coercion, gun trafficking, tax evasion and many more.William was left without anything and the only place where he could live was with his wife's family. Funny thing he became a live in son in law - worse than he hated Richard for. At least Richard worked hard to make sure that he had a pl
19. Macy Carli Philips was twenty five years ago in Royals Hospital in Wyoming where the Philips were living then with his new wife. Christopher had just got married and gotten a new job. Since Christopher Philips was the next in line for the patriarchy of the Philips family, their rules dictated that he had to work in another company for five years and rise in rank to show that he was able to run the Philips Group. While there, his wife got pregnant and she was taken to Royals Hospital in Cheyenne where they were living by then. What they didn't know was that the babies were switched in the hospital and another couple, Mr and Mrs Smith went with their child and they took the other family's. Eighteen years later, it was discovered when Angela, the one who was brought up by the Philips got very sick and she needed blood. It was discovered that her blood was the rarest type, type AB negative and RO sub type. When the two parents were tested one was type O positive and the other B
20. "Andy?" Macy asked in a small voice that showed she feared what was coming. She didn't know where this was coming from or going and her heart told her that it won't be good. "I... I...," Andy began but he couldn't say anything else. "Just tell them Andy," Angela began. "What do you mean?" It was their father, Christopher Philips who asked this time while looking at his adoptive daughter. "Daddy, Macy slept with a random man when she got drunk that hight at the Gala and put it on Andy. Andy was just so nice that he didn't want to tell the truth but now he can't take it anymore," Angela said and everyone's eyes were how on Macy. "Andy? What's going on? What is Angela saying?" Macy asked with tears now in her eyes as she didn't even have an inkling of what Angela meant. "Oh, stop it! Stop pretending," Angela mocked and that made Macy's tears just fall heavily. "Andy?" Macy asked again and Andy looked at her. "I'm sorry Macy. That night after you got drunk you didn't go to ou
By the time Richard was done with watching all the video clips Asher had prepared, he was feeling like ending the Philips family. He couldn't understand how a family could hate their child so much. Weren't they happy finding their long lost daughter? "Give Diamond Studios ten million dollars as the final investment on the movie and there will only be one condition, cast Macy Philips in the part she wants. "Brother, are you sure?" Asher asked surprised. It wasn't that ten million was a lot for Richard but that he has never helped anyone else again. Richard was an ice block. He never cared about what others needed or wanted as long as it never involved him. All Richard did was donate to the philanthropic charities their family worked on and he did that anonymously. But this was an open war on the Philips. Why was Richard doing this? In one of the clips he watched, Macy and the rest of the crew who would be involved in the shooting of the movie Major Calamities were in the openin
