Zino sighed and said.“I had to, now she's a thing of the past.”With an arched brow, “I am curious to know how you ended up with her.”Just then, a man clad in a military uniform walked in.It was the Grand Commander.Another man was behind him.It was Bayan, the bodyguard of the Grand Commander.They approached Noah.“Hi Noah,” the Grand Commander said with a smile.“Hi Grand Commander,” Noah replied.Bayan stood with his chest out and saluted.Casually, Noah salutes back.Noah introduced them to Zino.'How did Noah get to know these people?’Zino asked inwardly.They exchanged pleasantries. After which, they all sat around the same table.Mady's gaze was fixed on them. She wondered how military men were connected to miserable people such as Zino and Noah.“Okay, now that your wife has thrown you out, what's your plan?”Noah looked at Zino.Zino sighed, “Plan? All I need now is a roof over my head. I'll think of getting a job next.”“You don't have to bother about getting a job. I'l
“Noah just forgot about it.”Zino said casually.“Will you tell me how you met her or should I go and meet her?”Noah said coldly.“Okay, I'll tell you.”Softly, Zino explained. “A year ago, I and Mady got married. I saved her grandfather from hired assassins. In a way to repay me, he got his daughter, Mady, married to me. I agreed with the thought that we'll learn to love each other. After living together for six months, Mady began to show interest in making our relationship work. Unfortunately, her grandfather died the same month. Mady's Mom turned her heart against me. But now, we've gotten a divorce and she's getting married to someone else.”“It's a good thing that you've accepted the divorce.”Noah praised Zino. Zino's case was similar to that of Noah. The only difference was that Noah was a trillionaire in disguise.Zino sighed, “Mady is out of my life for good. All I have to do now is to fix myself up and move on.”With a smile, Noah uttered. “I am by your side now. You'll alw
“Don't bother about him.”Rieka said casually.Although she was shocked that Noah had such a huge amount of money in his possession.'Was he trying to show off? Will he come back and ask me to give him the money back?’ Thought Rieka.Camily was furious. She looked at Rieka. “You'll regret what you did to Noah very soon. Can't you see?”“See what exactly?” Rieka yelled. “That he is a miserable live-in son-in-law or that I have been the one providing for him all this while.”Camily didn't take it lightly with Rieka. “So a miserable live-in son-in-law can give you such a huge amount of money? Rieka, think outside the box! Think like there is no box.”Rieka was annoyed. Coldly, she said. “Camily, is there something you are not telling me? Why are you taking sides with Noah?”“Are you naive? With all your exposure you can't decipher things without being given a hint. I'm one hundred percent sure that soon you'll be gnashing your teeth in regret.”Camily spoke confidently.“Enough of Noah's
Rieka couldn't utter a word. Tears rolled down her cheeks with guilt and regret pricking her heart.Slowly and with a bright smile, Noah approached his army.Wasn't it too early for her to start regretting?‘If only I had known.’Rieka said inwardly.There was no longer anything between her and Noah. He was going back to where he was honored, respected, and cared for.He was only in Linton City because of Rieka. He could deal with those responsible for his family's destruction from anywhere in the world.“We stand for justice.”“We stand for peace.”“We are united.”“We wage war against the enemies.”“The Supreme Ruler we hail thee.”They chorused.Standing before his army, Noah raised his hand.The chorus ended.“It's an awesome feeling to be where you are loved and honored. My brothers, no matter what, we remain one.”The Supreme Ruler was so emotional.When he lost everything and had to start from scratch, they were the people he had to see as family.“Let us proceed!”Noah roared
Noah couldn't answer, instead, he waved him off. “All I need now is rest and I'd like to be left alone.”The vehicle halted at the Supreme Villa and Noah got out of the car.Noah yawned as he walked in.He freshened up and slept peacefully all through the night.Early the next morning, Noah's ringing phone woke him up.With sleepy eyes, Noah declined the call.The phone rang again.“Who is on the line?”With a cold voice, Noah answered the call without checking who called.“Noah, it's me, Andy. There's a recent update about the Statue Made Of Pure Gold.”“Really?”Noah regained consciousness fully and sat up.“What's the update?”Andy explained. “ Some hours ago, I reached out to Delph Net to check up on him. He made it known to me that the Statue Made Of Pure Gold had been moved from Linton City to a small town in Swelvi.“Are you sure Delph gave you this information?”“Yes! He knows better than to give me false news.”“Fine! It's time for me to recover what belongs to my family. I'
The Chief of Army Staff replied. “I'll go with the latter. Killing him won't be that easy but when he's within our jurisdiction, there's no way he will survive.”“Alright,” Qudus nodded.At the same time, Noah got a call from Jenny.He placed the phone on speaker.“Hi, Noah.”“Hi, Jenny.”“The man holding the Statue Made Of Pure Gold is the Chief of Army Staff. Although he is playing in a very low key.”“Three men who are all Generals are also working for him. Their names are Victor, Kish, and Qudus respectively.Hearing this, Noah frowned.He had never had of Generals bearing such a name.“Noah, the Chief of Army Staff has other people working closely to eliminate you.”“Penetrating Swelvi won't be an easy task but we are not backing out!”All Noah did was listen attentively.Jenny told Noah all the information she got concerning their mission.Noah cleared his throat. “Jenny you've done well. I know the Chief of Army Staff has a hand in all this. It's time to face him one on one. Yo
Victor sighed in relief. “I believe your words.”The Chief Of Army Staff ended the call.Meanwhile, Noah, Jenny, alongside her squad were on their way to Swelvi.Thirty minutes away from their destination, their vehicle halted.Jenny said, “We have to board a taxi from here. We'll have to board different taxis just in case things don't go as planned.”“That's a nice idea.”Noah praised her.Jenny buttressed. “Bear in mind that you have to be as free as possible. This town is a commercial place. Let's all pretend that we also came to buy and sell as we receive orders from Noah.”“No matter what, don't be alone. Remember, your life first.”“Alright.”Their voices rang out.They got out of the car and were in twos as they had planned.Once they looked like people who were out to buy and sell, locating their target would be easy.Noah ensured all of them had boarded a taxi before being stopped to take his own.Lo, the only vehicle available that was going to Swelvi was a tricycle.Noah go
Noah gazed at Jenny. He nodded and Jenny understood the gesture.They made their way to the first floor.With Jenny's squad keeping watch of the situation outside, and the surveillance camera disconnected, Noah knew he had enough time to destroy the three Generals and the Chief Of Army Staff.Soon, they stopped at a door. They heard people discussing.The voices they heard earlier came from the room.Immediately, Jenny sent a message to her squad members who were in the building.After a minute, they were all standing at strategic positions around the door.At that moment, Noah knocked on the door.The voices seized.Noah knocked again.This time, a voice rang out.“Come in, who is there?”“There's an urgent event. A fire outbreak occurred and the other soldiers have gone to quench it.”“Fire outbreak? Come in.”The door opened, it was controlled from the inside.With Noah still wearing the soldier's uniform, and the handkerchief around his nose. They welcomed him as one of their own.
