It came as a huge surprise to Mr Lance, to see Bella held captive by Gerard, Mr Lance hadn't thought of this at all, it had never crossed his mind that Bella wouldn't be safe. As Mr Lance stood there, eyes wide open staring at his granddaughter rough-handled and tied to a chair by this animal of a man named Gerard, Mr Lance gritted his teeth. Now he understood clearly what Scott meant when he said his dad would do things they weren't expecting at all. This was one of Mr Lance's fears, getting his family involved in things like this, Bella was the only family he had left before he found Damion, and now that he found Damion they were the only two family members he had left. His hand trembled as he swallowed hard, his mind calculating and thinking of the next course of action to take. Mr Lance knew that he needed to be careful as one little mistake might be the end of everything. The Anslem group soldiers weren't that much anymore, most of them had died, and some fled while o
Immediately the shit was fired, the whole place went into a frenzy and some of the Anslem soldiers rushed to protect their leader, gunshots sounded everywhere. “Are you ok sir?" One of the Anslem soldiers asked Mr Gerard as he helped him back to his feet. “Get the van ready” the man instructed another soldier who quickly ran into the van and started the engine. All this while Damion still had his eyes locked on Gerard, he wouldn't let the man out of his sight, never, he wasn't done with him yet. Damion was about to attack again when fleets of cop cars drove into the place, and as the doors opened, Detective Reeves together with his partner Helen and other police officers stepped out. This was the handiwork of Jack, the person whom he had spoken to on the phone a while ago was none other than Detective Reeves, after the call, he had texted me Reeves, explaining every single detail of what was happening, although it was a summary, it was still enough for reeves to comprehend.
Damion watched as the police huddled the already paralyzed Gerard into their vehicle together with the Anslem soldier who was just regaining consciousness. “Dr Damion, we meet again" Detective Reeves commented as he approached Damion, stretching out his hands for a handshake. “You are here just in time detective" Damion replied as he shook the man's hand. “Just in time? Doesn't look like it” Detective Reeves answered. “How did you know about this?" Damion inquired out of curiosity. “Jack called, he also sent a text, summarizing all that was happening, all about the bug and all that" Detective Reeves revealed "I see, this is all Jack's doing," Damion smiled. “Why didn't you report this to the police earlier?" Reeves questioned. “The reason is best known to me" Damion smiled as he turned around and began to walk away, leaving the detective standing with his gaze on Damion. A vehicle suddenly pulled up in front of Damion. “Need a ride?" A voice came from the vehicle and
It's been over two months since the incident at the Lance Towers, Gerard has been sentenced to prison together with Mr Smith who was guilty of being an accomplice. Although his father was found as an accomplice, this has not affected Wes's status; he had resigned from the Lance Medical Hospital and decided to begin work as the CEO of W&S holdings. The bitterness in Wes' heart was still there, and since his father was in prison, he decided to ruin Damion's life, although he knew that harming Damon was out of it as he didn't want to end up like his father. However, he vowed that he would make sure he embarrassed Damion in public, belittling him to the point where he would see himself as a low-life pauper with no place in the affairs of the rich. Bella was already well and strong, she had already resumed her acting career which seemed to be soaring higher with the help of Scott. The two had become the talk of the town as their movies broke the internet, any movie they acted tog
It was funny how time flies. Within a twinkle of an eye Damion's much-anticipated wedding was here, this was going to be a wedding that would be talked about for generations to come. Although, right now, many were confused as to which of the weddings they would be attending, this was due to how close the venue of Damion and Wes' wedding was. Of Course, given that Wes was the CEO of W&S holdings, everyone would prefer to attend his wedding instead of that of a common man like Damion. Most people thought that the only reason Damion's wedding was promoted and popular was due to Bianca's status as one of the most popular models in all of Gold City. Right now the whole venue was flooded with people, different people from different places around Gold City, they had all come for Wes and Malika's wedding. The wedding was to be held at the largest event center in the city. While that of Damion was in the second largest, which was just a stone's throw from that of Wes. At the venue
"Keep the change." The customer took the pizza box from Damion's hands.Damion smiled. "Bless you, sir. Have a good evening."When the man returned inside the bodega, he checked his hand and realised he had just been tipped a $100. His hand flew over his mouth, muffling his gasp.Damion glanced at the workers of the store through the glass while they had a late night dinner.He couldn't contain his excitement about the 100 dollar tip as he picked his helmet. Across the street, the doors of the luxury fashion store opened. Damion squinted, placing the helmet back on his bike.He began to wave vigorously.It was his girlfriend, Maliya, who had just walked out of the store across from him."Maliya!" He shouted, but the cars zooming past between them drowned his voice.Damion quickly dialled her number, excited that he had run into her. They hadn't seen each other all week because both their schedules had been packed.He watched her phone ring, but his smile slipped from his face when sh
Beep. Beep. Beep.Damion felt groggy as his eyes opened. A haze cleared from his eyes, and he registered with his surroundings. This was a hospital room.He winced. The ache in his head was out of this world. When he touched his head, it had been bandaged, wrapped all the way around."Mr. Damion, how are you feeling?" He met the kind gaze of the doctor standing at the side of his bed. A few nurses had accompanied him."Tired. My head hurts," Damion croaked, mouth dry.The doctor scribbled down something on his notepad. "Yes, that's normal. You sustained a head injury from the impact of your fall, but I'm glad to tell you that you are out of danger.""When do I get to leave?""In a few weeks. We will have to monitor you for the time being."When the time came for Damion to leave the hospital, the accountant had prepared his bill, and the amount almost gave him a heart attack."$5000?" his eyes popped from their sockets.Damion didn't have that kind of money.But the nurse delivering t
Blinking hard at his phone screen, Damion peered even closer at the figures showing in his inbox as a credit alert. He laughed, his chest shaking with amusement as he scrolled out of his inbox, dismissing the alert as a spam message possibly from scammers. He went to drop his phone, but something clicked in his head. The credit alert was from his actual bank account. The one he used for all his transactions.He turned on the phone again, unlocking it with a swipe. He pulled up the message again.It was there for him to see. A credit alert : $100,000,000,000.What in the absolute hell?He dropped his phone beside him on the bed in disbelief. After a few breaths, he picked up the phone again, pausing for a minute to wipe his eyes with the back of his hand. Maybe he was feeling so tired and sleepy he was seeing things.Or maybe he was already asleep and fucking dreaming. He pinched himself. He felt the pain. Alright, yeah, he was awake.He went to his inbox, fully expecting to see n
