CHAPTER 54Immediately, a man approached and placed a pistol against Noah's head.Noah was indifferent.Delph spoke.“Who do you think you are? And what if I played a fast one on you, what can you do?”Just then, the man who held a pistol against Noah's head groaned in pain.Noah had just kicked him in between his thighs.He felt so weak that he dropped his pistol.Quickly, Noah picked up the pistol on the ground and shot the man's leg, with his eyes still fixed on the screen.Delph was left speechless.Despite the numerous men pointing their pistols at Noah, he did not give a damn.Standing up furiously, Delph spoke. “What have you done?”Then he added, “I can't give you the information you seek and mind you there's no refund.”Noah's laughter echoed all over the room.“If you dare me, in the next twenty minutes, a place like this would not exist.”Noah fiddled with the pistol with a mischievous grin on his face. “I'll advise you to appear before me at the count of three or else…”De
While Andy drove them back home, the only sound heard was the screeching tires. “Andy!” Noah's voice disturbed the silence. “Sir!” “To Cynthia's abode. I'll pick up my scooter and head to Rieka's. I'm sure she must have been worried.” “Alright!” Andy nodded. Soon, they arrived at Cynthia's. Noah hopped on his scooter. “Goodnight!” Andy said. “Thanks!” Starting the scooter, Noah said. “We have to find the mastermind behind the destruction of my family. Gather information about the so-called influential men.” “Alright.” Noah drove off. Moving at a high speed, Noah sighed. He wished he hadn't killed Silas. Silas was the only one who could provide answers to the questions running in his mind. At the Fullams Ten o’clock at night Rieka and Aria spent a long time together having fun earlier. Aria insisted on gifting her the dress so Rieka did not have to pay. However, Rieka said she'd only accept it if she allowed her to pay half of what the dress cost
“No Mom! I just paid half of the cost of the dress. The purse and the shoes were my last birthday gifts.” “Really?” Lois was surprised. “I've seen this gown on the TV when one luxurious boutique was advertising their latest collection.” “This gown cost about a million dollars.” Rieka widened her eyes. “I don't know the cost. I got it from the chairman of Horizon's boutique, Aria Willy. She even insisted on giving me as a gift but I just paid a little token.” Earlier, Rieka had explained all that happened to Noah. She never expected that the dress would be that expensive. “Wow! She gifted you a very expensive outfit.” Said Lois. Just then, Noah returned with the car key. Lois threw a disdainful gaze at him. Now she felt her daughter deserved someone better. With Rieka's current status and her little business connection, Lois felt Rieka needed a more presentable man. Lois sat beside Rieka, wrapping her hands around her shoulder, and whispered. “Rieka! You have to grab thi
“Yes. Soon Noah would be behind bars with no one to help him out. When his superior returns, he'll gnash his teeth in regrets and pain. “Ahh?” Rieka was scared. Her eyes darted between Aria and Noah. ‘Which superior was he referring to?’ ‘Noah behind bars!’ ‘What a joke?’ ‘'Did you also hide the truth from Rieka? That you'll get arrested anytime? Rieka deserves better. Divorce her now so she can move on with a better and more responsible man.” “Dear, how do we go about this? What is he even talking about?” Rieka was nervous. “I promise, it has nothing to do with you. And if such happens be rest assured I'll support and accept whatever decision you take next. “Enough! Let's enjoy the moment.” Aria walked forward with Rieka, Noah, and Joel following her. After the count of three, Aria cut the balloon at the entrance of her new eatery and they all clapped. When they walked into the eatery, it was a very large place. Its decorations made the atmosphere very conducive and we
Everyone at the event stared at Kendra and Ussy. They arrived late and yet walked majestically, stealing the moment. Ussy spotted Aria. Holding Kendra’s hands, they approached Aria “Hi Aria, it's nice to meet you. I came on behalf of my family. You look good.” “Hi Aria, congratulations on your new achievement.” Ussy spoke first and Kendra spoke afterwards. Aria smiled. “It's good you came. Better late than never. Make yourself comfortable.” Aria spoke as she pointed to two empty seats and excused herself to use the restroom. Kendra felt proud as she caught a glimpse of the gazes fixed on her. She wore a broad smile as they took their seats. Ussy, who was now sipping his drink, heard a familiar voice. Turning around, he was surprised to see Rieka. Gently, he touched Kendra's hand and turned his neck sideways. Kendra understood his expression and turned around. “Rieka is also here!” “Alongside Noah!” “How did they get in?” Kendra uttered with an angry tone. Ussy couldn'
“Rieka is your cousin. Why do you have to accuse her of such in public? As I said, she bought the gown from my boutique. I support Noah's decision. You all must kneel and apologize.” Aria glared at Kendra. Next, Ussy spoke. “Enough of all this. Since Rieka and Kendra are family members, they should sort the issue at home instead of us kneeling and apologizing here.” “Young man, your opinion doesn't matter. Kneel now!” Brucy roared. Rieka was left clueless. She glanced at Noah who was sitting beside her and next turned to Aria who was behind her. Her beautiful look was replaced with fear. “Does this have anything to do with Noah?” He never asked for their assistance, they intervened willingly. Rieka thought. Just then, Ussy went on his knees. Kendra widened her eyes and wondered why Ussy, a member of the Swelvys family, would go on his knees so fast. “Won't you join him?” Aria asked coldly. After staring at everyone, Kendra had no choice but to be on her knees too. She
“I finally knew the reason for the preferential treatment I got from influential people.” Earlier, Rieka didn't know how to get to the root of all that happened. Now she has answers to the questions that raced through her mind.“The person I helped escape from torture five years ago is still alive and trying his best to protect me. He must be doing so to show his appreciation. Although I suffered a lot after taking that action.” Rieka now lowered her voice. “I promise, I don't know that he survived. Men were sent after him and they confirmed they killed him.” “This is serious.” Noah mumbled. “With no iota of doubt, I'll say he took vengeance on the Grichys, Swelvys, and Ariels.” Rieka glanced at Noah. “Do you think he did the right thing by hiding his identity and taking vengeance” Noah asked. “I can't judge. These families committed a grievous crime by destroying his family. If I could see the survivor, then I have a lot to discuss with him.” “Really? Or you'll choose him
“You'll need the services of a qualified Human Resource recruiter.”“You should be able to sort this out or do you want Andy to carry that out?”Cynthia was tense.“I have no idea about recruiting individuals for a job.”She pursed her lips.“If that be the case, you should study more and take courses that have to do with human resources recruitment and management. I know you are the best fit to carry the task out. We need the best hands on deck to make the hospital a standard one. You have enough time to recruit the most qualified people.”Cynthia expected Noah to hire someone to recruit qualified persons for the hospital but he still gave her the responsibility. She even has to study about it!“Okay, I'll do all you've said and get back to you soon.”So fast, the news about the destruction of the Kendrick spread like wildfire. The event that happened five years ago became fresh in the hearts of many.“The survivor of the Kendrick's is out for revenge. He is the one responsible for t
