General Noah CHAPTER 080
“Mom, you have to call Dave. You were the one who drove him out of the house. Let him have that motherly love. By the way, he is the one that is connected to Ms. Cynthia and that relationship will be to the advantage of our family. Rieka suggested. “I'll give him a call.” Lois pursed her lips. She took out her phone and called Dave. “Hi, Dave.” “Hi, Mom! What's happening over there?” “Nothing much. I've missed you and would like you to return home.” “This has to be because you now know I have a job.” Lois was quiet for some minutes. Then she spoke. “I'm sorry for the way I treated you, it was out of annoyance.” “It's fine, I'll head home when I'm done with the official task before me.” “It's fine then!” Lois hung up the phone. Senior Fullams glanced at Lois. “When he returns home, we all have to treat him well. Now that he knows Cynthia and works under her organization, it implies Dave has also got some power and connection now.” “I'll do as you've said. With Dave, we'

It was morning. Today was the deadline, given to those who destroyed his family. He had instructed that all those who were still alive should take their lives by hanging, but they refused. Rieka woke up, well-dressed and ready to go to the office. “Aren't you ready? You have to drive me to the office.” “Yeah, but my stomach has been hurting me and I don't know what's wrong.” Noah said. Rieka drew closer to him. “I will drive myself to the office or I'll call my official driver. Would you like to visit the hospital? Maybe you ate a lot last night and the food didn't digest well.” “I don't have to go to the hospital, I'll stay back home and rest.” “If you insist, if you need anything, give me a call.” Rieka spoke. She smiled. “See you later in the day. Next, Noah did all the chores and ensured the house was clean. Since he was the only one left at home, he lit a cigarette and smoked. Just then, he got a call from Andy. “General, the heads of Ariel, Swelvys, and some member

The men of the first-class families expected the survivor of the Kendricks to be a powerful and influential person. They say him as a man full of words and no action.One even said he was able to kill Silas Grichy and Senior Grichy because he caught them by surprise.Noah went to his knees before Junior Kendrick. “I promise to make up for the suffering they've inflicted on you. I am your Uncle, Noah.”“Don’t try to act smart!”Jerry warned.“I'm scared. I might not survive this.”Noah was heartbroken, Junior must have been tortured.Suddenly, Andy whistled. Apart from Noah, everyone's attention was diverted to him.“How dare you? What was that for?”A voice rang out from their midst.Suddenly, they saw an army rising from the bushes. They had used the leaves for camouflage.“The army? What's going on?”Everyone grew tense including Jerry Austin and Benny Jinks.About a thousand armies had covered the whole place.Noah didn't expect Andy would pull so many armies for an issue he thoug

Junior Kendrick took a deep breath. “Are you truly my uncle?” “Yes, I am! But you have to tell me more about yourself.” Noah folded his arms to pay full attention. “My mother's name is Lucy. She said she met my father outside the country. Under the influence of alcohol, they got intimate. After that night, she never saw him again. She decided to keep the child and it was me. After some time, she saw his image on a TV channel and then got his social media handle and they got talking. He made it known to her that he couldn't come and check on me because some people are after the lives of his family. He didn't want to put my life in danger.” “Hmm!” Noah sighed. “Did he mention the people who were after his family?” “Not really. According to my Mom, he mentioned the Trio Alliance.” Trio Alliance? Noah had never heard of such. “Where is your Mom? How old are you?” “When those men came to capture me, my Mom struggled with them and she was killed in the process. I am twelve years

“Gad relax! We'll get to the root of this!” Jack assured him. Gad nodded. Soon everyone dispersed except for Gad and Kendra. Kendra scanned the environment and gave Gad a devious stare. Gad winked at her and they both had a happy expression. Then Gad whispered. “Everyone trusts Rieka. Yes, she was the third party that was aware of the money but everyone knows she won't steal it. This might lead to something bigger than we could imagine.” “Trust me nothing would happen. Rieka and her family now see themselves as a god. She's working with Top Notch company and her brother now works with Ms. Cynthia. They should no longer receive anything from the family business. With these, our share of the family business would increase.” “Hmph!” Gad heaved in agreement. “It's just a little game with Rieka, she'd be fine. With this, Grandpa would have more trust in us.” Kendra smiled. After plotting their schemes well, later in the night, Gad approached Senior Fullams. “We've found the mo

“I didn't say it because I am annoyed. I've been telling you for ages but you chose to pay deaf ears.”Lois replied. “Dad, the first step is to believe that the plans will work. Although I know that starting a business is not as easy as it sounds.” Said Dave.“True!” Noah shook his head slightly. “Dave, with your current work and relationship with Ms. Cynthia it would help in starting the business. And you Rieka, you have worked with Brucy Kings in his company for sometime now. With your experience and the caliber of people you now know, take for instance Aria, it would be so easy for you to start your own business.”“Hmm!”Jack seemed to agree with Noah.“Jack, we just have to try our best. Taking the risk is better than not trying at all.”Lois encouraged him.“What business do you have in mind?”Jack asked.“Pharmaceuticals!”Dave and Noah chorused.“What? Do you know the number of pharmaceutical companies in this city? The competition is very high. How would we meet up with those

“Alright!”Rieka replied.Suddenly, a man barged in.The man seemed to be in his early forties. He had a suit and a tie on. A young man walked in after him.“Mr Cody, what's happening here?”“Hi, Mr. Bright”“I am here to let you know I'd like to buy your company since it's now for sale.”Bright smiled.“I'm afraid that won't be possible!”“What do you mean by that? Who do you think you are? Why would you give false information to the public?”Bright flared up.“You have to understand me, sir! The information was not false, the company has been sold off to the people who came first.”“What do you mean by that? I'll double up the money for you.”After seeing the news, Bright traveled back to the country just to buy the company because he felt it would be at a cheap price.“Hmm!”Rieka glanced at Bright. “I've bought the company and I won't appreciate you misbehaving on this premises. Since your goal here is no longer achievable, please leave.”“How dare you talk to me in that manner,
General Noah CHAPTER 087
“Hmm!” Silas sighed. His father had promised them salary increments but he couldn't fulfill them because the company was about to fall into bankruptcy. Noah stepped forward. “It's enough everyone, listen to what your new chairman has to say.” “New chairman? Is it Silas?” “The company was announced on every news outlet to be for sale. So fast, we have a new chairman?” The employees glanced at Silas. Silas understood their expression and said. “He is right! Rieka Fullams is the new chairman of Peak Cooperation?” They all widened their eyes in surprise. “Is this a joke? Rieka is one of the top workers of Top Notch Group. Why then did she buy Peak Cooperation?” A voice rang out from the midst of the employees. Rieka cleared her throat. “All of you would maintain your jobs. I bought the company so it won't fold up and not for me to make thousands of people jobless. All of you are very important to the company. We have your best interest at heart. I assure you that from your n

Minutes passed by and the groom was nowhere to be found.Lois covered her face in shame and cursed inwardly.‘Rieka isn’t a lucky child. Just imagine the dignitaries present at this wedding and yet the groom is not present.’‘Could it be someone is trying to humiliate my daughter?”The guests were tired and a voice rang out coldly.“Is this a scene in a movie?”Soon whispers filled the air.“We’ve been waiting for long, let’s just leave.”“The groom must have eloped.”Only the soldiers present in the hall remained calm.Just ten, they heard a blaring siren approaching.Soon, silence filled the air again.Tears were already welling in Rieka’s eyes. She bowed her head slightly in shame.A man cladded in his soldier uniform with many stars on it approached the podium and whispered to the clergyman.The man was the Grand Commander.At this point, the Grand Commander held the microphone, and happily, he said.“Today, we have two celebrations. Permit me to welcome the new Chief of Army Staf

Noah smiled, “Sincerely, she owns a dear place in my heart.” With a serious expression, Noah asked. “Do you think getting hitched with her again is a good idea?”Andy nodded. “Of course, she’s the only woman you’ve ever loved.”“Okay! Let’s have a quiet walk then.”Meanwhile, at the Fullams’ residence.“Can’t you talk sense to your daughter? Is this how she wants to end her life?”Lois uttered coldly as she looked at Jack.Jack tilted his head.“It is her life; her choice and I cannot influence her decision because you want me to.”Lois widened her lips and asked. “Are you serious?”Coldly, Rieka said. “Mom, I have a lot to deal with. What is all this about?”“If you wait from now till infinity, Noah will not welcome you into his life. Beauty fades, you have to give another man a chance. I’ve spoken to some rich folks and they all agreed to get married to you not minding that you are a divorcee.”After saying that, Lois angrily left.Rieka stared at the space. Thoughts of Noah grippe

“What?”Santos expressed and gave a mocking laugh. “Who do you think you are?”Just then, he pulled out a gun and pointed it at Noah.Andy and Giddy also pulled out their guns and pointed at Santos.“I have nothing against you. I can see your greed and selfish interest is what is making you want the position of the Chief of Army staff at all cost.”Slowly, Noah approached Santos.“One more step and I’ll pull the trigger.” Santos roared.Noah sighed and he took another step. Bang!Santos pulled the trigger.Swiftly, Noah dodged it.Thank goodness no one was standing behind him.“All that happened here has been recorded. It would be used against you. You are not even worthy to be called a soldier.”Noah uttered with a frown.“Against me? We’ll see about that.”Santos said confidently.“No matter what, being soldiers, we are one,” Noah said as his eyes scanned through everyone present. For no just cause, Santos Junek wants to get rid of me. From his action, you all can see that he is n
CHAPTER 183
At that moment, Santos picked up his phone and placed a call.“Hi Santos, is anything the matter? You hardly call me.”“Jacob, I can see you know me well. We need to meet tonight, it's urgent.”Jacob was a high-ranked soldier and he was a member of the military council.All along, Jacob has been the one giving information to Santos about all that was happening because Santos handsomely rewarded him. Jacob was also a close friend of the former Chief of Army Staff.Now, he felt something was happening and he couldn’t figure it out. He had to hear from Jacob.Nevertheless, Jacob had assured him that he would become the next Chief of Army staff.Meanwhile, at the Supreme Ruler’s residence in the military base.Noah, Andy, and Giddy were standing.Noah rubbed his forehead and said, “This is more complicated than I had imagined. I don’t want to get rid of anyone but I can’t help but defend myself.”“I have a suggestion.” Giddy paused. Then he continued, “Let us visit Santos. Not to harm him
CHAPTER 182
Noah glanced at the Grand Commander. The news about who will become the next Chief of Army was yet to be announced publicly.“I have an urgent assignment to do here and it has to be kept a secret. Apart from all of us here, who witnessed my arrival, no one must know that I have returned.”Noah was led to a large room. It was the Supreme Ruler’s room in Fristico.Ever since Noah left, no one had dwelled in the room. However, the maids always kept it tidied daily.Noah freshened up and sat on the couch as he stared at the space.Knock, Knock, Knock.Some knocked on the door.Noah had already made it clear that he wanted to be left alone till he said otherwise.Who then was knocking on the door?With a frown, Noah went to open the door.Noah welcomed a man and a woman in.“You, so you had plans of coming too. Why didn’t you just say it? Did you have to make it a surprise?”Noah said with a smile beaming on his face.“I had to come along with her. We can’t just leave you. You need us mor

“Santos Junek?” Lois replied with a smile.“I have never heard of that name before. Why will he take interest in me without approaching me for once?” Rieka said with an arched brow.Lois sighed, “It’s possible you’ve not been paying attention to other men because of Noah. He gave me his card so anytime you are ready to see him, it is just a call away. I also heard he is a military man. From the convoy I saw accompanying him, I can confidently say he is far richer than Noah. Getting hitched with him will make Noah regret ever treating you in this manner.”“Hmm!” Rieka reasoned with what Lois said. A thought of revenge crept into her heart.Why was Rieka having such thoughts? Having a relationship with someone wasn’t by force.“Give me his card, I’ll call him. I want to get some information from him.”Rieka asked politely.Lois picked a card that was on the table and handed it to Rieka.So fast, Rieka picked up her phone and called the number which was on the card.“Hi, It’s Rieka. My

Noah felt getting hitched with Rieka would complicate things further especially for her.Noah looked at Rieka and said, “I have to leave now.”With a smile filled with pretense, Rieka nodded.Noah and Andy left.At the Supreme Villa.Noah was resting when the doorbell rang.Andy answered the door.“Welcome! To what do we owe this visit.”Andy said to a man who was fully clad in a military uniform.The man walked with Andy following behind him.“Have a seat,” Noah said.The grand commander took his seat and stared at Noah.Due to his influence, the grand commander was aware of what transpired over the night.“Noah, you went on that mission without seeking my assistance.”The grand commander said with an arched brow.Noah smiled. “I did not want to disturb you, you were busy. You gave me the information I needed and that’s enough.”“That’s not the main reason why I’m here.” The grand commander cleared his throat.“Hmm, why are you here then?” Noah asked curiously.The grand commander e

Coldly, Dex replied. “I am Dex Grichy. You murdered my father and my aunt. Do you think you will be able to escape death now? I wanted it to be so peaceful but you complicated everything by killing our men.” “A member of the Grichys family?”Noah shook his head. With an indifferent tone, Noah said, “They all deserved to die. They paid for their actions. Why didn’t you come for me directly? Why did you have to involve Rieka in all this?”Mockingly, Dex said.“Noah, you are not remorseful. Well, I’d like to see what you can do when your legs are no longer active.”Dex pulled a dagger out and raised the gun he was holding. Then he said,“Choose your death.”Noah kept quiet.“Can’t you talk? Should I decide for you?”Inwardly, Noah was devising how he was going to get rid of Dex without Rieka getting hurt.Finally, Noah spoke.“I don’t want to know why you are doing all this. However, I promise that I’ll obey you as long you don’t kill her.”Dex nodded, “I won’t hurt her. By the way, she
CHAPTER 178
After some minutes of discussion, they made their way to the entrance of the warehouse. They ensured their boots didn’t make any noise that would draw attention to them.Jenny said with a low voice. “This is the only gate that leads us in. However, there might be other access points known by the people who work here.”Clack! Clack!Soon, they heard the sounds of boots walking about. They were from the men who were watching over the warehouse.With the help of Andy, they swiftly passed through the gates without making a sound.With a low tone, Noah said. “Let’s split into two. Some will follow me to the left while others will follow Andy and Jenny to the right.”So, fast they did that.“Ahh,” one of Jenny’s squad members yelled. She had hit her leg against a stone which made her fall. She was with Noah alongside six others.“Who is that?”A voice rang out as they heard footsteps approaching in their direction.Noah quickly lifted her.Shuu!Noah gestured as he placed his hands on his
