From Rags To Silk Chapter 73
After selling off some of her jewelry, Shelly and Michael finally managed to find a cheap motel to finally relax their tired legs. For the first time in their lives, they slept on the streets like dogs.Michael felt disgusted with himself; he felt like a failure. He had been so comfortable in life that he never made plans for unforeseen circumstances like what had just happened to them.He had no hidden accounts, no hidden safe deposit boxes, nothing, and with the frozen accounts, whose money was probably going to go to the legal fees, he had nothing to his name.He had been crushed financially, emotionally, and physically. And the worst part of it all was that he had no idea how to get himself out of the tangled web, especially freeing his father from the stupid sewer rat.Shelly looked to have a plan, but he did not like the plan. Josh Hamilton was never a fan of his father. He had no idea about their history, but the two always seemed to avoid each other, which never made sense con

As much as he wanted to pretend on his phone that everything was okay, his heart was beating very fast. For the first time, he was scared. Someone wanted him dead, and they were not beating around the bush.He quickly called his secretary and began making plans that he had not planned to make. He planned to give Rexa enough time to diffuse the bomb.There was a good chance that whoever planted the bomb was watching and wanted a front-row seat, but he wasn't going to give them what they wanted.Fortunately, Rexa diffused the bomb and gave him the all-clear. Daniel clenched his hands, pissed. Michael and Shelly were into much shit to waste money on a useless bomb, or maybe he was underestimating them.But his money was on the old partner, and he needed to speed up his investigation into finding out their identity.And the trip he was about to take would provide some of the answers, so he planned to proceed as planned and headed to the airport as if nothing had happened."Rexa I want you

Josh stared at Shelly long and hard, as if he were analyzing her rather than analyzing what she was saying. He took a sip of his wine again and, as she went on to explain the war between the Meyers and the Lanes. She topped it up with all the perfect devices Daniel had ever made."Remember all those devices he made when he had nothing, now imagine what he can create with all the money he has now?" she leaned forward.Josh chuckled. "Are you sure you are not smoking whatever George is smoking?"Shelly rolled her eyes in annoyance; the man did not appear to be as intelligent as he led the outside world to believe. She did not expect him to believe her instantly, but with the evidence she was giving him, she expected him to at least ask the right questions."Is this why you gave up Lidigo easily and without a fight? Is it because you were scared of this alien technology you claim? Is it dangerous?"Shelly looked away. "I guess you are not that smart; maybe I should have given this vital

Slowly, Kendal began taking small breaths in hopes of containing her anger, but she couldn't. She pressed her lips together in anger, the veins in her neck standing out in a livid ridge. Daniel smiled at her, hoping to get her attention, but her cheeks were flaming with anger. He quickly cleared his throat. "You look lavish, fit for a queen celebrating her birthday," he complimented, finally grabbing her attention. She smiled, tucking in a strand of her hair that had fallen out of place. "Happy birthday; sorry I missed your message; I was out of the country," Daniel added as he gave her a hug. Zain watched as Kendall's mood changed from vile to precious. He always wanted Kendall to look at him the way she looked at Daniel. His presence was obviously unwanted, and he began to regret allowing Daniel to persuade him into believing he would change who Kendal liked between the two of them. "You look smart and handsome too," she replied, ignoring Zain in the back of the seat. Deep do

Zain stood still; he was tempted to throw the job back in Josh's face, but then a trip to England was not that bad. It would provide him with a respite from Josh's insistence on spying on his best friend, as well as a much-needed break from the Kendall drama."Okay, so when should I go?" Zain asked, surprising his boss. He had expected him to protest or quit, but to his surprise, he was ready to obey.Josh was now left with a lot of anger and had no idea where to unleash it."First thing in the morning," he replied after clearing his throat."And how long am I supposed to spy on this firm?""As long as I want you to," Josh replied."Okay, is there anything else?" Zain asked in a mocking tone."There is nothing but one last warning, stay away from my niece," he warned.Zain simply shook his head and stormed out of the office. The thought of not being good enough for Kendall kept hitting him. The man was crazy and looked like he was obsessed with wanting to make Daniel his in-law at all

A new day came with Shelly not hearing anything from Josh Hamilton. He had ended the meeting with a mocking tone of looking into the issue and investigating it himself.The silence only meant that he did not believe her. He was her last hope to get revenge on Daniel but that hope was heading into a drainage. She needed to find a way to persuade him that Daniel was a threat to his empire.She stood up pacing the room, there was no way she was going to let Daniel have the last laugh.She looked at the bed, where Micheal was sleeping, his eyes fixed on the roof as if he was going to come up with something tangible. All his efforts to seek a judge that would reverse his father's transfer out of the country proved futile.He looked lost and defeated which was getting on her nerves. He was never a fighter which always made her skin crawl."Would you please get up," she ordered, irritated.Michael turned his head to face her pissed"Get up and go where?" "Work; we can't just lie in here; we

Shelly looked away; it never occurred to her that Daniel would be watching her, but then again, he was not that stupid to just ignore them after taking everything from them.On second thought, she wondered if he was watching Josh and not her."Come on, let's go in; I have a story to tell you," Daniel jolted her awake.Without caring what the guests would think, she grabbed his arm, and the two walked in, putting the entire place at a standstill.Some people had their mouths open in shock while others could only glare, especially those who knew her relationship with the Meyers.Kendall and Josh first looked at each other, then at Daniel, who had a big smile on his face."I do not think your guests are thrilled with you holding my hand," Shelly mocked."They are pissed at you and not me; in fact, they all feel sorry for me for falling into your trap," he joked, leading her to Josh and Kendall, whose faces were almost busting into flames."Guess who I bumped into?" Daniel asked."Are you

The launch party finally came to an end, and Daniel was busy saying goodbye to his guests. He had noticed Kendall had left but chose not to ask Josh about it, though he was now curious to know what Shelly had said to her.Finally, almost all the guests were gone when Daniel walked back into the building. Only Shelly and Josh and the waiters were left.He had been dodging both parties the entire party, but now he had to face them.He walked up to Josh with a smile, thanking him for attending his launch."I wouldn't miss the launch for anything," he replied."Anyway, I want to talk to you in privacy," he requested, looking in Shelly's direction.Shelly rolled her eyes; she was not waiting for Daniel but for Josh. His last remark had been running through her mind the entire party. She could not help but hint at the fact that he was claiming the relic as his because it was Daniel's.She doubted he'd simply allow Daniel to use the artifact while his company was failing.She watched as the

A week threw by with Daniel going back to his life and concentrating on his companies. He had a lot of pending projects that he needed to start and finish.He was aware that there were a lot of questions about the partner or who took his sperm, but life had to go on. He and Rexa needed to start doing what they were intended to do and changing a lot of lives. Though Josh's issue kept nagging him. The man was yet to decide whether to walk or save his brother. Cathy also went back to her old life; clearing her death certificate was not that difficult, though the country was shocked by the turn of events. She took the initiative and moved into Daniel's mansion, even though her mother was against it. But she felt Daniel was too slow and that he was going to lose his concentration on their relationship and instead focus on the company.Carol did not mind, Cathy was good company even though her stay meant constant visits from Rachel who was too annoying and violent for her liking.As for

Daniel placed both the heart and the brain in different cooler boxes, took two long trips to different parts of the country, and buried them both in different locations.His wish was for the old man to never see the sun or daylight again and for the stories of his existence to be a mere myth and forgotten with time.Once he was done, he instructed Rexa to delete the memory of the location in his head. Even Rexa went for it and deleted hers too si that Daniel's future generation would never locate the two organsHe went back for his body and burnt it while Max and his mother's bodies were taken back to the underground lab for the police to find, and the cause of death was ruled as lead poisoning from the leakage from the mine due to the blackout. By the time he headed home, it was morning, and all he wanted was to get some good sleep. He went straight to his mansion and found Aunt Carol on her feet, training her legs."It's over now, we can now pop that champagne," he announced.Aunt

"If you want to live, stay calm and answer her questions!" Daniel warned them.He knew he was no longer in control, and Rexa was controlling everything using her own mind.Max tried to move his aching body across the room. Everything hurt; he felt like he had been tossed by an elephant on thorny rocks.Daniel moved closer to the bed, curious to see what Rexa was earlier calling a non-living thing."Move away from him!" Angela yelled at him.But he ignored her and was meant with a greyish-blackish tone of mass. It was human from the shape of the head and body, but the skin looked like it was about to rot but paused.He gulped as if he were about to vomit; it was not smelling, but the sight was nauseating."How dare you?" The old man yelled at him."What the fuck is this?" Daniel asked, looking in Angela's direction, but she looked away."A MAN THAT REFUSED TO DIE," Rexa popped up, "AND I THINK HIS CONDITION HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH WHAT HE TOOK ON THAT SHIP," she added."Shit, I guess

"What did you just say?" Daniel asked."RODRICK IGRAM IS ALIVE, YOUR GREAT, GREAT, GREAT GRANDFATHER'S FRIEND, THE ONE THAT DIED," Rexa replied.Daniel shook his head, "That's impossible, how old was my grandfather when he first found you?" "18 YEARS OLD, SAME AGE AS RODRICK.""So that means Rodrick was born in 1807, and that would make him over 200 years old.""DANIEL, YOU HAVE TO SEE THIS; HE HAS TENS OF NEEDLES STICKING OUT OF HIS BODY, IT'S HIM; I KNOW IT'S HIM," Rexa replied.Inside the lab, Max called for backup and tried to get the magnates working, but without electricity, they were useless."She is here," his grandfather whispered."Who?""The relic, she is here," he replied with glittering eyes.Max quickly checked his camera footage and asked his men to search for Daniel, but they could not find anything."That's impossible, Daniel is nowhere near here.""She can manipulate sound or any form of matter, so do not expect to see Daniel near here," his grandfather laughed.Max

"Anyone try to touch those guns and I swear, I will blow off their heads!" He warned on top of his voice.Rachel stared at him, shocked, while Cathy and Craig held each other's hands and moved to the other corner.Daniel removed his phone and made a call, instructing someone to come and guard the house. He ended the call and looked in Rachel's direction."Please stay in this house, and I will deal with everything," he assured her."You have no right to threaten me," she finally replied. "Actually I do, or maybe you want me to snap Mateo back into reality, and believe me, he still has men outside prison who he can hire and take you out!" Daniel warned.Rachel began biting her lips as all her words disappeared from her lips. Daniel just threatened her, he threatened her in front of her children."Mom, just do what Daniel is asking you to," Cathy finally spoke."Quiet!" Rachel yelled, breathing heavily."Watch what will come out of your mouth, because I am ready to make you sleep until

When morning came and news of George Meyers' arrest was all over the news. Daniel, who had not slept because of the tunnel below Max's hospital, sat next to his aunt, who was in tears.Finally, the day she had always hoped for came after her five years in a coma, but it was worth the sleep. She held her nephew's hand with tears in her eyes."You did it," she whispered. "Your parents are looking down happily on their son."Daniel smiled at her."I will pop the wine after I get the head behind the order," he replied."Did you talk to Max?" She asked.Daniel analyzed her question, "Did you know about his real parents?" He asked."He confessed when I was in my coma," she replied. "I hope you understand he is just a victim of his family's greed.""I know we talked, though I had to kidnap him in order to make him talk," he confessed."What? Please tell me you did not hurt him." "Of course not; he is fine," Daniel assured her.Cathy, who was taking a shower, finished up and joined them."Gr

Daniel slowly took a seat, trying to process everything. His best friend was Max's half-brother. He stared long and hard at him. There was a little resemblance physically and even in the way they carried themselves with the "I do not care" attitude, though Max was a total jerk if one did not know him personally.Zain was a more free type compared to Max, who always seemed to be above others. It was only after some time that he eventually warmed up. He wondered if that was part of the plan so that he could not suspect anything.He had a lot of questions in his head and a lot of memories kept popping up, but he could not comprehend the fact that the partner was around him all this time and neither George nor Josh or Gabriel suspected anything."Are you the one that shut down power at the Jerk's hospital?" Zain asked, trying to snap him out of his thoughts."Yeah, there is a private elevator in the hospital that leads underground, right?" Daniel asked."Tell me where Kendall is, and I wi

Craig's heart began beating fast, and he was not sure how to react. The old man was sick in the head. He had held the man in high esteem, but knowing the man personally, made him want to vomit.First, he forced his niece to have sex against her will, and when that was not enough, he even went further and stole sperm from the man he drugged her with."Are we together?" Josh asked.Craig cleared his throat."Does Daniel know about this sperm?" Craig finally asked."No…," Josh replied. "This is about freeing your sister, but if you want, you can tell Daniel and ruin your chances.""This is betraying Daniel!" Craig raised his voice. "What kind of person are you?""Does Daniel know about the contract you signed with the partner?" Josh asked with a smile.Craig looked away."So what you are doing is not betraying, but what I am doing is betraying?" He asked. "If I am not correct, I would guess that you are going to allow Daniel to have a child that will be owned by the partner?" He asked.

Daniel clenched his shaking hand, realizing how deep the betrayal was. A voice deep inside of him told him to go upstairs and confront them, but another voice told him to stay calm and use his head."WE FOUND THE PARTNER, DANIEL," Rexa whispered in excitement. "THIS EXPLAINS HOW ZAIN KNEW ABOUT THE RELIC FROM CHILDHOOD," she added.Daniel closed his eyes; he was not as excited as she was. He was somehow disappointed and not impressed that it turned out to be Max's family.But he was going to give credit where it was due. They hid perfectly in plain sight and knew when to show their faces. "WHAT'S THE PLAN?" Rexa asked, eager to take Max down."Shut down the building!" Daniel replied"WHAT?" Rexa was a bit confused."Electricity, Internet, I mean everything, shut it down!" He ordered"DANIEL, THIS IS A HOSPITAL, AND PEOPLE WILL DIE," Rexa warned."That's where generators come in," he replied, his tone a bit shaky. "DANIEL, WE ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO PLAY WITH LIVES," Rexa warned.Daniel
