DEVIN STONE: Rise of the Billionaire Magnate CHAPTER TWENTY SIX
Devin stood on his feet and blocked Judge McKellen's blow. And then, with a shove, he pushed the judge into the cabinet.“You dare put your filthy hands on me? You shameless motherfucker!” Judge McKellen yelled, grabbed a chair, and threw it at Devin.Devin grabbed the chair and threw it right at Judge McKellen with great agility that the judge didn't see the chair coming.It slammed right at him, kicking him off the ground and slamming him on the floor!“Get the fuck out!” Devin said to him in a menacing tone. “You've exhausted my patience!” “Don't fucking threaten me! I know what you did to Luther Banks. You called the police on him, didn't you? Arrogant brat. I'll end you today!” The judge yelled and cried out as he stood on his feet.He was bleeding from an open wound on his arm and a broken nose.“So, that's what this is about?” Devin asked with a smirk.“Parade all you want. Soon, I'll rip that smile off your fucking face!” McKellen snapped, took out his phone, and called his b

Judge McKellen bounced the call, humiliation rocking his core. He quickly got into his car and zoomed off.Two days after the incident, Amanda kept calling, leaving multiple missed calls on his phone, but McKellen didn't pick up. That was until Amanda suddenly decided to show up at his office.“Why the fuck have you been ignoring my calls? Luther is going to court tomorrow!” She snapped at him as she forced her way into his office, his secretary running after her.“I'm sorry, sir, I tried to stop her…” the secretary muttered, but Judge McKellen waved his hand and dismissed her.Shooting Amanda a side glare, the secretary walked away.“What the fuck are you doing?” Amanda asked McKellen while he cleared his desk, packing his things into a box.“What does it look like? Or do you need glasses to see that I'm leaving?” He shot back at her and she was instantly alarmed.“Leaving? To where? The proceeding is tomorrow! Tell me you've handled Henry Blake and that fucker Devin!” She asked but

“What the fuck are you doing here? Who gave you permission to be in this court?” Amanda snapped at Devin while he trudged into the courtroom with Kia by his side.Devin scoffed and glared at Amanda.“Do you really want to do this today? I thought you'd be saving whatever shred of dignity you have left?” Devin shot back at her. Amanda frowned, gritting her teeth until her masseter contracted.“You're here to witness our downfall, aren't you? Ha! You're not so mysterious now! Fucking and blackmailing the rich must have been fun for you for a while but after today, I'll send you to the darkest pit of hell!”“I hired the best lawyer in the fucking city and paid him five million dollars to defend us. So, you see, you're fucked, Devin! It doesn't matter what malicious nonsense you've been spilling to Henry Blake. Today, I'll expose you for the failure you are!” Amanda yelled again and stormed away, confident that she had finally broken Devin's spirit and was about to see a manifestation of

“Why did you have to fuck everything up? Huh? A single support from you would have been fucking nice!” Luther lashed out at Malcolm while the cops threw them into prison.Malcolm, like always, remained gloomy. Since the incident with Devin, Malcolm had become tongue-tied, surprised as to what he truly saw.“Look at me while I'm talking to you! If you had gotten a lawyer or a good judge for us, then we wouldn't be in this bloody mess.”“Now look where we are, in prison!” Luther yelled again.“Are you blaming me for your whore's fuck up? Didn't you tell me she could handle everything?” Malcolm shot back at Luther who scoffed.By that time, some inmates were already looking at them with funny eyes. Luther noticed but decided to ignore it.“At least I did something. What the fuck did you do, except cower whenever I speak of Devin. You were so scared of him that you didn't want to fight!”And then, with a mocking chuckle, Luther crossed his arms.“Did you think he would show you mercy if y
DEVIN STONE: Rise of the Billionaire Magnate CHAPTER THIRTY
Devin's eyes fluttered shut. He was transported to a dark realm where twisted shadows danced. A gust of wind swept in a mysterious scroll, adorned with writhing symbols. As Devin grasped the scroll, it unfurled with a deafening crack, revealing a message in blood-red ink: "This is The Cosmikon. All powerful scroll of the celestial gods! Who dares to seek its essence?”Undaunted, Devin stood firm, his heart pounding with anticipation. The scroll glowed with an otherworldly light, but Devin confronted the darkness head-on, his voice ringing out."I'll face whatever lies within." The scroll's glow intensified, and Devin's world went black immediately.“Wake up darling. We have to prepare for that auction at St Peter's orphanage,” Kia's voice woke Devin from his slumber.He opened his eyes, realizing that he had been dreaming. What was the Cosmikon? Why did he see the scroll in his dream?“Come up, babe. We're gonna be late,” Kia urged him on while she picked a suit for him.“It's just
DEVIN STONE: Rise of the Billionaire Magnate CHAPTER THIRTY ONE
The buzzer let out a screeching jam as the large door to the phone booth opened. Amanda watched as Luther, escorted by a prison guard, approached a telephone.He had a glare in his eyes, a terrific one that Amanda hadn't seen before.“You have ten minutes, Luther. Don't fucking exceed it!” The guard yelled at Luther and walked away, giving Amanda and Luther some privacy.“How are you, Luther?” Amanda asked him and Luther's eyes flashed with anger.“Are you fucking asking me that? I'm in prison, Amanda but sure, I'm fucking great!” He yelled at her over the phone. Amanda gritted her teeth.“How long are you going to keep treating me like this, baby?” She asked in a defeated tone, but Luther scoffed.“Don't fucking do that. I gave you a simple task, Amanda: make sure I don't end up in jail. And what did you do? Huh?”He leaned in closer to the rubber wall that separated them“Like everything else, you fucked it up. So forgive me for not sending you fucking flowers and screaming about ho

“It's funny how they just let trash walk into the airport these days! What the fuck do you think you're doing here?” Amanda asked Devin again while she sized him from the head down.She could see his appearance had greatly changed; even his clothes, although simple, were extremely expensive.“I'm sure he stole them. He's probably a driver for Henry Blake. Not even Yvonne Hall would give him so much money,” Amanda thought to herself.“Since your lover's imprisonment, I thought you'd be hiding from public places so your shame wouldn't be captured on camera,” Devin said to her and the words stung Amanda so much.She flared her nostrils as she forced a laugh.“Ha! Why will I hide? I have nothing to be ashamed of. Everyone knows to give me respect and you should too!”“How shameless of you to show up here today. What is this? Are you scamming Yvonne Hall now for a change of wardrobe? I'm certain she wouldn't even give you a dime because you don't deserve any help!” Amanda spilled out.Devi
DEVIN STONE: Rise of the Billionaire Magnate CHAPTER THIRTY THREE
“Devin…” Amanda muttered as her fingers danced beside her dress, but Devin crossed his arms.“We had a deal. Now you must bow before me and crawl around the airport like a pig,” Devin stated, and Amanda froze.As tears built up in the corners of her eyes, Petra scoffed and chuckled.“You're telling me this pathetic bitch made such a bargain with you? How useless and stupid could she be?” Petra chuckled in amusement. Amanda started sobbing, hoping that that would prevent Devin from subjecting her to further embarrassment.“Devin, please…. I'm already finished here. Don't make me do this. I- I will do anything else. Anything you want. Please- Devin- please!” She begged. But Devin gave her no response.“If she made such a deal, she should honor it,”“How foolish could she be making such a deal? She deserves whatever she gets!”“This will make headlines for our article. From a disgraced bride to a humiliated cretin. She truly is unfortunate,”The reporters all whispered amongst themselves

“Amanda. Of course, it's you. No one here has a voice as annoying as yours. Although, by now, I thought you'd be shutting the fuck up in public,” Kia retorted, and Amanda chuckled.“Bitch, don't try to be cute. It doesn't suit you. Your place is in the dirty kitchen of some old, worn-out man,” Amanda said and smiled.“And where is that useless boyfriend of yours? Your fellow liar and golddigger? Or has he abandoned you already?” Amanda asked and laughed, but Kia just drank her champagne in silence.“Aw. He must have gotten the attention of another woman and now you feel used. U wish I could say sorry to you, but you deserve to be treated like trash,” Amanda added.Kia placed her glass down and turned to Amanda.“That's rich coming from you. After cheating on him, you're still shameless enough to be obsessed with him. What does that say about you? Slut!” Kia retorted.Amanda saw how furious Kia was. She suspected that something had pissed her off and she didn't want to pick a fight she

“How dare you even suggest that rubbish to me? Do I look like one of your cheap whores that you can use and dispose of?” Petra yelled at Luther as he stood frozen on the spot.His hands were placed on the right cheek where Petra had slapped him. His eyes darted to Devin, who stood there, arms crossed, with a smirk on his face.A wave of anger came upon Luther as he saw the smirk.“That bloody asshole is manipulating you and you can't even fucking see it!” He yelled back at Petra.“Is he yelling at Petra? She's too important to be treated like trash,”“He shouldn't have done that. Now he has to make amends,”“What if she doesn't forgive him? She has influence. She can ruin his life,” Several talks filled the air and Luther could hear them. Petra angered even more, stood in defiance.“You have abused and insulted me, Luther. And I demand an apology,” she said and crossed her arms.Luther sighed. He couldn't afford to have the public opinion turned against him, especially not now that h

“What did you just say to me?” Luther fumed and slammed Jim's head again. Jim tried to fight back but Luther was bigger and stronger than he was. He stood no chance.“Forgive me… please!” Jim started begging.“If you say a word of what you saw to your sister, I'll fucking kill you, slowly. Do you understand, you useless brat?” He yelled at Jim, who shook his head quickly.Luther gave him another punch in the face and walked away as Jim bled on the ground. “Fucking rabbit!” Luther cursed over and over again and trudged to the lobby. His eyes roamed for a familiar sight, but everyone was stealing glances at him, wondering how he could be walking free even when he had a five-year sentence.“How powerful is he that he can walk away from such a sentence?”“He must have friends in high places. I wouldn't want to cross him!”“Luther has always been amazing. Everyone knows this. It's best you be on your best behavior when you're around him,” more and more whispers followed.Luther enjoyed th

Petra's phone call had changed the mood in an instant. And Kia had gone from the flirty, wild side of her to the cold nature.Devin knew not to engage her in a conversation. He just wanted the night to be done and over with in a swift time.Finally driving to the auction, Devin helped her step out of the car. But she wasn't even looking at him anymore.“I wanna go grab something to drink,” she said and walked away from him and went to mingle. Devin watched her and sighed. “Trouble in paradise?” Jim, Amanda's brother suddenly said to Devin and approached him, holding a drink in his hand. He faked a smile, but his intention was to hurt Devin.“For someone who pretends to be a top shot, you sure don't know how to handle women. Or let me guess, Yvonne Hall dumped your sorry ass when she found you cheating on her with Kia?” Jim asked again and chuckled.But Devin was still silent. He was irritated by Jim's presence and did not even want to say a word to him.“Are you fucking ignoring me?
CHAPTER FORTY SEVEN
“Are you certain that you want to come with me to the auction?” Devin asked Kia while she wore the expensive necklace he bought for her. She kept her eyes fixed in the mirror, not taking them off for a second.“Yes. I want to. Petra asked you to be her bodyguard. Well, you can be my bodyguard too,” she replied jealously. Devin smiled. He approached her and hugged her from behind. “You know you're the only woman in my heart, right? I will never do anything to hurt you,” he told her and kissed her cheeks.Kia moaned lightly and shut her eyes. “That doesn't mean that I cannot fight to keep you. I'm coming, Devin. That's final,” she added.Devin raised his hands in submission. “Alright. Let's have a great night,” he added before he walked out of the room.In a few minutes, Kia was ready and they headed to the auction. Devin drove his Porshe. He had asked Dreykov to stay behind for the night, as he didn't want any extra attention at the auction.While he drove, Kia looked into the mirror.

“Petra Knight. This is a pleasant surprise,” Devin said as he picked up his phone. He just stepped out of the police station to review any case files regarding the egg.“Really? Weren't you at least curious to hear my voice again?” She asked him in a flirtatious voice.“Have you forgotten that we are betrothed?” She asked again and Devin sighed.“I thought we were past that now,” he said and got into his car.“I don't think we will ever be past that, Devin. You've impressed me. And I'm not easily impressed,” she said.“Look, Petra. You are a lovely lady. Beautiful, successful, and simply amazing. But I am in love with someone else. And I don't want to break up with her,” Devin told her but Petra scoffed.“Spend a night with me first and you'll see I'm really worth the shot,” she propositioned. Devin's lips curled into a smile.“I'm not doing that. Why did you really call me, Petra?” He asked her. By that time, his car came to a stop in the traffic. His fingers tapped the steering ligh

The prison door buzzed and Luther walked through to the phone booth. His eyes lit up with intrigue when he saw the visitor he had that afternoon, a person he never thought he'd see.“Well well, who do we have here? Did the wind blow you into this place or something?” He chuckled as he took his seat.Vera smirked, gracefully picking up the telephone. “It is good to see you, husband. They're not treating you as badly as I would have hoped. By now, I expected you to be nothing more than bones and sores,” she said with a bright smile on her face.“Yeah, bitch? Well, lucky for me, I did what I always do. Played my cards right. You know, when you're finally in prison, you might want to try that,” Luther replied to her with a smirk.Vera chuckled, brushing the hair off her face. “This is your space, Luther. Enjoy it. I can never be in there with you,” she told him and leaned back.Luther's smile faded slowly. “So, why the fuck have you come? I didn't see you at my trial. You refused to send

“Ma'am! I didn't see you coming,” the assistant said to Vera who still held her hand in the mid-air, clenching it tight.“Is this how you go about harassing people just because you work for me?” Vera asked her, but the assistant muttered.“No, ma'am. It's not what you think. The fucker started it!” The assistant accused but Vera pushed her hand off.The assistant staggered back and nearly fell. “And now you're still fucking lying to me? How daft do you think I am?” Vera yelled at her.“Apologize to him. Now!” She added.The assistant baited her eye, glancing at Devin.“But ma'am, he should be the one to apologise. He even said hurtful things to me,” the assistant argued but Vera cut her off.“Apologize or you lose your fucking job!” She yelled at the assistant. Terrified of losing her job, the assistant bowed her head before Devin.“I'm sorry for what happened, sir. It will not repeat itself,” she said but Vera frowned.“Apologize on your knees,” she said to the assistant who gasped.
CHAPTER FORTY THREE
“What is it?” Luther asked her. Lila sighed while she quickly looked for a place to park her car.“Are you interested in making an investment? I promise it'll give back everything you've ever lost!” She said to him.“What sort of investment?” “An egg. Rumour has it the egg has magic. Apparently, there are people in our world called cultivators and the egg can grant them a boost in their powers,” Lila explained.On the other side of the phone, Luther's eyes opened wide while he listened to her explaining.“If it's true, and I can gift this egg to King Viper, then I'll be able to get him to do anything for me in the Future,” he thought to himself.“How much are we talking about?” He asked her.“Well, millions… but that is not even the issue right now. The museum where we stole, well, took it from, they're looking for the egg.”“And they've asked Devin to find it,” she added.Luther frowned when she mentioned Devin's name. He clenched his fist and gnashed his teeth until his jaws harden
