A muscular man dressed in a white shirt and black pants sat on a couch with his legs crossed over the other in a villa located in Linton City. Suddenly, his phone buzzed.He glanced through his phone and it was a notification from an unknown number.He clicked on it and read through it."Supreme ruler, we've got a report. The girl who helped you escape from captivity five years ago is Rieka Fullams. She was raped and severely punished for that. Although she developed drug-induced amnesia from drinking alcohol a lot to forget the trauma and hurt she passed through."He angrily kept the phone on the table before him, his fist tightly clenched.The man was Noah Kendrick.Five years ago, Noah, his parents and siblings were captured and tortured, falling prey to the hands of a foe.He witnessed all his family members tortured to death.It was Noah's turn to be tortured but fortunately, he was freed by a young girl. She helped him escape, not minding the repercussions.After he escaped, he
The supreme villa is situated in the center of the city and covers about 30,000 square meters. In Linton City, it was the biggest, most luxurious, and sophisticated villa. Rieka stood in the foyer, speechless as she gazed around the villa. It was more than a palace. She had known any man who would bid to have her would treat her worse than a slave because he bought her. She thought her only duty was to keep the bed of the highest bidder warm, following the desperation of her family, despite not having an idea about the stranger. Bringing her to such a luxurious place made her mind race about the intentions of the man. “This house belongs to a distant family member, I live here so I could take care of the house in his absence.” Rieka nodded. Noah stood beside her and stretched his hands to hold her by the waist. "I am not ready…" Rieka shivered. Her mind was restless and scared. What if she doesn't satisfy him? She is yet to come to terms with the fact she is now a b
It had been two weeks and Rieka had not seen any of the Fullams and none of them deemed it fit to check up on her via phone. Rieka was seen as a good-for-nothing being in her family. One fateful afternoon, Rieka and Noah visited a shopping mall. "Welcome!!!" Entering into the mall, the receptionist said politely. "We are glad you stopped by to patronize us." Noah shook his head instantly and smiled. "It's nice to be here too." Rieka smiled, looking around the store, it was filled with luxurious items and she did not know what exactly to pick that would be within the money she had. Now, a familiar voice spoke and Rieka's expression changed. Turning around, she saw Kendra and Ussy, her fiance. Kendra was her cousin. Ussy was from the Swelvys family. They controlled the affairs of business in Top Notch Group. They were known worldwide for their wealth and influence. Kendra was stunned when she saw a bag in a cabinet, that looked classic and attractive. "Please get me this b
Noah smiled,placing his hand on her shoulder. “Perhaps it's from one of your secret admirers. ” “Secret admirer? No one knows me I've spent the last few years within the confine of my house.” Listening to her speak with pain, he sighed. “All I need now is a source of income.” “That reminds me, I also overheard some prominent person discussing a vacant job position in Top Notch Group.” He added, “You can apply, who knows you may be lucky.” “Did you just mention Top Notch Group?” Rieka doubted. She knew a lot about Top Notch Group, getting a job there is influenced by the rich's wealth and connections. Top Notch Group was a company known worldwide, having controlled the business world in Linton City for decades. Noah smirked. “Yeah, you heard me right.” Rieka concluded, “Getting a job with Top Notch Group is not as easy as it sounds.” She gave a mischievous laugh. “Okay, but there's no harm in trying! So give it a thought.” Preparing dinner, Rieka headed back to
That night, for the Grichys it was a time to be merry and celebrate. Kindicles, their biggest business, had signed a deal with Top Notch Group. This great milestone achieved by the Grichys will be heard far and near. Making the celebration more elaborate was the eldest member of the family, Senior Grichy. He was turning 70. The guests, who were mainly prominent and wealthy people, were present at Grichy Villa for the celebration. “This is a cash gift of one hundred million dollars.” The Ariels gave their gift and wished him prosperity and good health. “On behalf of the Swelvys, here is a diamond wristwatch.” It is worth fifteen million dollars and they wish the Grichys many happy returns. Sitting in the foyer, Senior Grichy was dressed in a black suit. Yes, he was 70, but his age had nothing on his appearance, he looked strong and fit. Looking at all the gifts presented, Senior Grichy was filled with joy. The reply he gave was, “Thank you so much.!” In a corner of the villa, a
The next day, Rieka woke up early and went to Noah's room. “Hey Noah, trust you had a good night rest? Just want to let you know that, I'm about to submit my CV to Top Notch Group. As you said, one can't conclude without giving a trial. I don't want to ever get downgraded by anyone because I don't earn a living. Will you accompany me?” “Yes! Let me freshen up and get dressed. I'll be out in a jiffy.” “When Rieka left his room, he jumped out of bed and got ready at a fast pace. “Rieka was waiting in the sitting room.” Since she was going to a well-known company, she had to look her best. She wore a pink fitted dress and her brown hair rolled into a ponytail. Indeed, she was a beauty to behold. “Let's proceed.” They got into the car and headed for Top Notch Group. Suddenly, Rieka looked worried. “What if I get embarrassed there? I don't have an appointment with anyone there. How do I go about it?” Noah sighed. She had no idea of what awaited her at the company. However, seei
“What is that supposed to mean?” Rieka played daft He took a step backward. “Young lady, all you have to do is warm my bed. I know you need this job at all costs, use what you have to get what you want. Other ladies are wishing to have this opportunity with me.” “I’m married. I can’t do it. I can't give out my dignity because of a job.” Rieka refused bluntly. Gerald couldn't control his anger. “So you think you are a saint? Well, if you don't give in, you can bid working with Top Notch Group goodbye forever. Gerald wanted to have her by all means. “Noah?” Rieka turned to Noah. Noah pursed his lips. “Forget about him, he can't decide your fate. His words are mere empty threats. He is not worth your time.” Gerald turned to Noah. “Who do you think you are? How dare you, little brat?” Noah was quiet he had nothing to say to him. After all, he was the Supreme Ruler and a General. He can't waste his words on a power-drunk fellow. Rushing out of a Maybach vehicle was the overall
Noah widened his eyes. “That's not possible. How could Brucy Kings, the famous and wealthy man know an orphan like me?” “Stop it. What about the Supreme Villa?” “As I said before, it belongs to a distant family member, I live there so I could take care of the house in his absence. Everything including this car is not mine.” Noah explained. Rieka wasn't convinced. “But, you are an orphan?” “Yeah right!” “What about the money you used to bid for me?” Rieka needed to clear her doubts. “Oh, that. I received the money from a philanthropist who I once helped. At first, I rejected the money but he insisted. Are you suspecting me?” “Hell no!” Rieka spilled. “You've done a lot for me. Bidding for me with no evil intentions means a lot.” Noah smiled, pressing his hand against hers. “We are married. With the job I just got, we'll maintain a stable life and get our house too.” “I'm proud of you, my darling wife.” The next minute, they saw a man holding some files in his hand exiting t
