The day of the Billionaires Club party approached quickly. The organizers of the event provided sprinter buses to convey each VVIP from their apartment to the event center. Edward had his bath, dressed in the exquisite suit he bought on his first day of arrival in Dubai, and wore his expensive Rolex watch before sending his location to the driver while sitting for breakfast, awaiting their arrival.The party was divided into two sections. The morning session, which was more about introductions, was scheduled to kick off at 9 a.m., and the night session, involving the red carpet and main event, was to start at 9 p.m. and 10 p.m., respectively.The bus arrived at exactly 8:30 a.m. Edward finished his breakfast, thanked the maid for the meal, bid her goodbye, and got on the bus. They arrived at the location after 30 minutes. Outside the event center, hundreds of exquisite cars were lined up in the parking lot, leaving barely enough space for Edward’s bus to park. As he stepped out, he

They exchanged pleasantries and were interviewed by beautiful the female journalists on the red carpet. Lady Fiona, the most famous and richest reporter, was dressed elegantly in a red dress. Her long black hair cascaded down her back, and she wore high heels. Holding the long microphone to the mouth of each invitee, she conducted interviews. Edward had just arrived at the scene in a black Lamborghini provided by the organizers for their VIPs. As he walked in, he encountered Lady Fiona. As someone who wasn't used to the celebrity lifestyle, he hated red carpet interviews as it was only about showing off wealth which seems boastful to him. But lady Fiona' s beauty captivated him and he developed a sudden interest in the interview. All his life, he had watched her on TV and dreamt of being interviewed by her. H

"I never expected you to be my date tonight," Lady Fiona said as she sipped her drink. She stared directly into Edward's eyes with a smile on her face.In a calm tone, he replied, "The surprise was all over your face. I wasn’t expecting I’d pick you either.""So who did you have in mind when you walked toward the bowl?" "I don’t know, nobody really. What about you, who did you have in mind?""Same, nobody really," she mimicked his voice, and they both burst into laughter. Lady Fiona had this unique smile that could melt even the strongest heart, and Edward was falling for it. Her eyes, nose, mouth—her entire face—was perfect and beautiful. Everything about her was captivating. Her soft, calm voice could melt a heart, and Edward felt lucky to have her tonight.They shared stories about their personal lives. Edward told her a bit about himself, as most people already knew much of his story, while Fiona shared hers. From her story, it was clear Lady Fiona came from a wealthy background.

"Kelvin Durulo, owner of Durulo's Men's Clothing Fashion." "David Brookline, CEO of Wells Hotels and Suites." "Hamster." "Jeff Rollins." "Mr. Leonard... and so on. These ladies were the leeches behind their downfall," Lady Fiona added. Edward turned his gaze back to her in shock. He remembered those names. Kelvin Durulo had the biggest clothing fashion brand in the world. On Forbes, he was ranked the 12th wealthiest man in the world. But a few years ago, Durulo's fashion empire went bankrupt. It was said he had marital issues and lost a huge amount to alimony. David Brookline, owner of Wells Hotels and Suites, was rated top 5 in an American magazine but also fell from grace. Five years ago, he was charged with sexually assaulting a woman. The case tarnished Brookline's reputation and his business, which has yet to recover. Hamster was a well-respected businessman residing in Switzerland with a net worth of $10 billion. He was the first man from his country to provide su

Edward was covered in shock and confusion as everyone clapped their hands, waiting for him to do what kiasha had just said. He exchanged glances with Lady fiona who had a straight expression on her face. She was obviously not happy with her date been asked to kiss not just another girl, but a notorious leech who go after influential men, and brought to their downfall. But lady Fiona acted cool. It was a pool party and everyone had to be matured and go with the naughty games. She leaned towards him in the pool and whispered into his ear. " Do it. it's just a kiss. Nothing more." " Are you serious ? This is thesame girl you just told me about. " Edward whispered into her ear; his expression showing disapproval. " This is a billionaires pool party and you can't reject, Edward. You will be fined a huge amount of money. It's just a kiss and there's no string attach. Just kiss her for a second and leave," she advised and he nodded. Gently, he walked towards kiasha who leaned at the

Lady Fiona placed her hand on his cheek and made him look at her. With a straight face, Edward stared at her boobs, standing firmly on her chest. They were really beautiful. He now understood why she had asked him to turn. She had secretly took off her bikini at that moment so he wouldn't notice. But why was she doing this ? " So this was the reason you asked that you needed a privacy, huh ? To take off your bikini and later expose your naked self to me ? " Edward was now staring at her beautiful face. Lady Fiona laughed before replying. " Edward, don't act like you don't like what you are seeing. This is a billionaires club night party, and you should know that this is part of it. Were you expecting we just talk without sex coming into the picture ? " She asked, her expression giving off a sultry vibe. " I wasn't expecting anything. But this looks good," He complimented with a smile. Without any further word, she pulled him closer to her and planted a kiss on his lips. Edward
Edward loyld: Rise of the underated biochemist CHAPTER 49: BACK TO ASHVILLE.
At 7 p.m., Edward's plane arrived in Ashville. A convoy was waiting to receive him at the airport. At the sight of him, his security team quickly advanced, smiling as they approached. "Welcome back, Mr. Edward," Gerald and four other security personnel greeted, taking his luggage from him. "Thank you," he replied with gratitude. Edward was escorted to the black Sprinter bus, where he sat comfortably with Gerald by his side. As the car started moving, Edward and Gerald began talking. "How was your time in Dubai, sir?" Gerald asked. "My time in Dubai was fine. I had a nice experience. How has the company been while I was away?" Edward asked Gerald. "The company has been doing great, sir," Gerald began, providing Edward with details of what had been happening in the company while he was away, along with proof from his phone. Edward nodded, smiling at everything Gerald said. Production had doubled, and the orders placed for his vaccines had also increased. This was proof that

Two days after Edward returned from Dubai, he and a group of billionaire friends decided to chill out at one of the city's hottest clubs. Lux was known for its top-notch interior decor, best wines, and of course, being a hangout spot for the wealthiest men and most beautiful ladies in the city.Edward sat with two of his friends, Jackson and James, in the club, drinking and discussing business. The men were surrounded by ladies, except for Edward, who hadn’t found anyone to his liking. As they discussed, his eyes landed on a beautiful lady seated at the bar, sipping a drink quietly. She was a petite redhead with flawless skin and beautiful eyes. He excused himself from his friends and approached her."Hello, why’s a beautiful lady sitting alone?" he asked. The lady glanced at him from head to toe before replying. "I’m not alone. I’m with someone," she said. "Oh, you’re with someone? Where is the person now?" "He excused himself to the toilet. He’ll be back soon," she replied.

CHAPTER 68
"Has your dad ever had any disagreements with someone in his office?" Edward questioned suspiciously. Muktar went into a quick thought before he replied. "Well, the one I can think of is with Officer Basit, and that's his PA." "You mean the same PA who came into the office when he slumped?" Edward asked. "Yes, that's him. They had a little disagreement, which my dad talked about, but they were cool. My dad never saw him as a threat, and I don't think he is." "Your dad not seeing him as a threat doesn't mean it wasn't the case for him. He might have seen your dad as a threat to his own plans. Well, I don’t think there’s much to be done now. He’s been buried already without an autopsy result," Edward said. "Yeah, you're right," Muktar replied, seeming sober. "Don’t worry, bro. It’s all in the past. I’m glad you’re out of prison, and most glad you were the one who pulled the trigger on your uncle. It would have been a different story by now." "Yeah, and all thanks to you. I

"What do you mean? Are you serious?" Muktar said as he took the paper, his eyes fixed on it. He was surprised. That same surprise could be found on Edward's face too. They both quickly read the content on the paper and saw it was a fine of 5,000 rands for each of them. Amidst the shock, the prisoners also congratulated Muktar for his freedom. "Let's go discuss outside," Inspector Haske said, and they all walked out of the prison. They got to the police interrogation room, where they saw a man with dreaded hair seated, his hands cuffed. Upon seeing the guy, Muktar shouted at the top of his voice, "That's him! That's the guy who shot at the couples!" He said angrily. That moment, he felt like he should rush the guy and strangle him to death but he restrained himself. Edward and Muktar moved forward to the counter, where Edward paid a whopping sum of 10,000 rands for his and Muktar's bail. After that, they were given their belongings held by the police, and they finally left th

CHAPTER 66:
Edward was escorted out of the field towards the police counter, where he reached for his wallet, brought out some cash, and handed it to the inspector. "Now, can I have medical aid?" he asked, watching as Haske smiled while receiving the money. Edward was taken to the medical center, where the doctor attended to him. There, he discovered that some people actually bribed their way out of hard labor in prison. Had he known earlier, he would have paid and remained in the cell while the rest endured the labor. Somehow, he still felt pity for the other prisoners. He stayed in the medical center until nightfall and was then returned to the prison. Upon entering the prison, he noticed that half the prisoners were asleep, while those awake were leaning weakly against the wall, including Muktar. At the sight of Edward, Muktar quickly stood up and approached him. "Hey, how's your leg?" he asked. "It's fairly okay. I can see y'all are tired." "Yes, the work today was tedious. We w

"But he said he broke into his uncle's house. So, who exactly were the people killed?" Edward asked."Well, he didn’t lie. The people killed were his uncle's son and his wife, who still lived with his father. It’s reported that he tried to escape after the shooting, but he was caught by a local vigilante on duty that night and handed over to the police.""So, does that mean there’s no way to help him out?""There’s a way. From what was stated here, he wasn’t the one who pulled the trigger. And the person killed is also a wanted criminal. If we can locate the person who did it, we might be able to set him free.""And how can we find that person?""The vigilante knows who they are, and he’s hiding somewhere. If we offer him a reasonable amount, he might expose the real shooter, and your friend can go free.""And how much would that take?" Edward asked."Just 300 rands," the barrister replied."Done. Just make sure you get me out of here first, then we can deal with his case." After gat

"How do you mean I can get out of here with money?" Edward asked."Because you are in a corrupt system. With money, you wouldn’t even need a lawyer. Just pay the police, and they’ll let you go, though under some conditions which I can help you with. I can help you get free, you know?" Muktar said, and Edward narrowed his eyes at him."You can help me out of here? But what about you, though? If you have the power, why are you still in here?" Edward asked, and Muktar smiled."Mine is a long story... I was actually convicted of a crime I was guilty of and sentenced to 20 years imprisonment," Muktar said."Tell me what you did. I want to hear it," Edward asked.Muktar explained how he was convicted for robbing an old man in the village because of money. According to him, the old man was an uncle who had illegally taken his dad's wealth when his dad passed. He reported the case to the police but didn’t get justice because the man bribed the police. Then, he decided to take matters into his

CHAPTER 63: **AT THE PRISON**
They arrived at the prison yard some minutes later, and Edward was taken to a particular office in the prison center. In the office, the people who had brought him explained something to the officers in their language, which he couldn’t understand. Afterwards, he was stripped of his clothes and taken to a prison cell with just his boxers on.Edward was surprised at the way they handled him. They didn’t even hear his side of the story, let alone give him the chance to get a lawyer. In his prison cell, there were about a hundred people. Amongst them, Edward stood out. His skin color, hair, and everything about him was different. The prisoners stared at him like an outcast, communicating with each other and laughing. He knew they were gossiping about him. Some tried speaking to him, but he couldn’t grasp what they were saying since they spoke in their language.There was limited space in the prison. It was small and stank awfully. In the cell, they defecated and urinated on the bare floo

CHAPTER 62: TROUBLE WITH THE YOUTHS
Seeing the angry youths surrounding him, Edward began to tremble in fear. He knew he had been busted, but what he couldn't fathom was where all these youths had come from. This place was isolated just a few minutes ago. How come there were a hundred people here already?"Who are you?" one of the youths asked, his head covered with a red beret. He was the leader of the group, standing in the middle of them."I... I... I—""Speak, or we’ll slit your throat, foreigner. Who are you, and what are you doing in our secret temple?" he asked again, this time raising his cutlass as the rest did the same.Edward was confused about what to say. He knew that revealing his true purpose could get him killed or thrown in prison, just as Donald had warned him. He had to come up with a believable lie to clear his name."I—I’m sorry. I'm a tourist who came to explore this place. I have no bad intentions at heart," he said, faking a smile. The youths exchanged glances, communicating in their local dialec

CHAPTER 61
As early as 8 a.m., Edward was up. He walked into the bathroom to have a bath, then returned to the room to start dressing. Today, he was leaving for his first adventure in searching for blackwood leaves. He saw it as an adventure, imagining the risks he was taking to find them.He wondered how he had woken up on his own without hearing a knock from a waiter. Hotels in Ashville would usually bring breakfast to the room at 7 a.m. sharp, and dinner every night, but it seemed things were different here. Maybe it was just a place to sleep over and nothing more.A few minutes later, he finished dressing, picked up the things he’d need, put them in his bag, and headed out.“Good morning, sir,” the female receptionist greeted him as he appeared.“Good morning. I’m heading out,” Edward said, handing her his key.“This early? What about breakfast?” she asked.“Well, no one served me breakfast,” he replied.“Oh, sorry, sir. I can go get it for you if you want. You just need to give me money and

CHAPTER 60: KANURI KINGDOM
The drive from the airport was smooth. Edward got a glimpse of the beautiful city in Africa. The towering buildings, skyscrapers, and exotic cars along the way created a fascinating view. Africa looked stunning. However, these beautiful sights gradually began to fade as they neared their destination.A couple of hours later, the cab arrived at Kanuri Kingdom. "Welcome to Kanuri Kingdom," the cab driver said to Edward.The first place they passed was the village market. People were busy going about their daily lives, trading and interacting with one another. Though it was already evening and getting dark, the market was still bustling, as if the day had just begun. The vibrant African culture was evident in the way everyone interacted. It was nothing like Ashville, where people mostly kept to themselves."Thank you," Edward replied, his attention still focused outside the window, observing everything.The roads became rough, with the driver encountering many potholes as they made thei
