HIS BILLION DOLLAR INHERITANCE CHAPTER 155
Ryan didn’t hesitate to follow the little boy as they walked towards the direction to meet the anonymous person.He was asked to sit in the middle of an empty hall, where a seat was placed facing each other with a table in between. Ryan glanced around the room but it was empty and had two doors one which they came in from and the other that seemed unknown to him. He tried to communicate with his inner man to be sure he wasn’t making the wrong choice, but everything seemed okay to his inner spirit. He guessed his inner spirit wanted him to be where he was.After waiting for a few minutes, a man in his fifties walked in with two hefty men behind him like what seemed like his guards. Ryan couldn’t shake the mixed feeling he felt while waiting for the anonymous person. He thought he was coming to a place where he would see computer screens all over or a place where he would be meeting with a young man but the man coming towards him was an elderly man.The man sat down opposite Ryan and he

“I was blamed because I didn’t go with him, I was supposed to go with him all the time and I wasn’t meant to leave his side. I couldn’t explain the reason why I didn’t go with him that fateful day because I never had the chance to explain. I tried reaching out to your grandfather but each time I tried. I always get into trouble, and more men will come after me until I decide to leave the city for Colombia, my hometown.” He said with his voice barely above a whisper.Ryan inhales and exhales Sharply while staring at the man, “Who was after your life.” He wants to know the truth about everything that happened. “ Your grandfather’s favourite butler and the man who raised and trained you.” Sebastian Mathues replied softly.“The man who raised and trained me,” Ryan asked himself as he was becoming more confused.Sebastian Mathues could fathom the confusing expression on Ryan’s face, so he winked at his guard who bent his head and Sebastian whispered into his ear to turn on the screen.

“Young master,” he said while staring at Ryan.Ryan glances at Sebastian.” I demand an explanation. What gang.” He asked in an authoritative tone.Sebastian moved back to his seat and drew a deep breath. “Young master, Joseph Thompson is the second in command of Black Eagles. I have been trying to find out who he is working for, but all to no avail.” Ryan stared at Sebastian with a furrowed brow, it seemed like there were a lot of things Ryan and his family didn’t know about the senior butler of the Baker family.He paused and inhaled before he continued. “Joseph Thompson has backup from top men in the city and it will be difficult to bring him down. We would need more convincing evidence that will help us.” “Black Eagles, Black Eagles,” Ryan said repeatedly with his finger tapping on the table. He was trying to recall where he heard the name. Sebastian and his guards exchanged glances at each other before darting their gaze to Ryan who was reeling in several thoughts.After a few

He trailed behind Joseph in a distance without Joseph noticing anything.Mr. Caleb was still in his room having a nap, and it was almost time for him to come out. The maids had already brought his food and medication, it was well arranged at the polished desk with Joseph standing to give the maids instructions.Nicolas sneaked into the room and hid behind the large bookshelf, with his phone on silent and his camera on to capture the scene.“Thank you, I will inform him that everything is ready. You all can go back to your duty post.” Joseph instructed.The maids tilted their heads before leaving the room, Joseph nodded his head slowly as he watched the maids exit the room.

“Ryan, I warned you to stay off my lane but you refused. You thought because you had connections you were higher than everyone else. But look at you now, you are suffering.” Douglas uttered with his voice tingling with mockery and sarcasm.“Who would have thought that their favourite Grandson would be seated before me? Look at him, he can’t even raise his head to look at me. What a shame, nice job Scar. I thought you were incompetent for this job but seeing him seated here I will double your money.” Juan and his men laughed uncontrollably, While staring at Ryan who was still facing downward. Scar didn’t utter a word he frowned his face, his heart was boiling in building anger against Douglas. He hated him so much that he wouldn’t mind killing him if given the chance.“Ryan, Ryan. I wish Elizabeth was here to witness this day, but no she is not here. After I am done with you, I will go to her and get married to her while you will be in your grave.

I want justice to be served.” Ryan said with a serious and determined tone.The police chief shook his head intermittently in agreement, “Take them away, we need to go after Brown.

Can you explain why you were there with the item you were carrying?” He asked while staring at her.Mrs. Vanessa’s breath caught in her throat as she searched for an explanation. “I ….I…was just checking in on Brown. He wasn’t feeling well. I wanted to see if he is alright and if there is anything I could do to help him.” She stammered with her voice trembling with uncertainty.Chief Francis inhales and ex

How dare you.” Grey said.Ryan shrugged, “My mum wasn’t the only person you kidnapped, Elizabeth Brian is here.” He said soft but firm tone.The police team moved closer to where Mrs. Rebecca and Elizabeth were tied and helped untie them, setting them free, and moving them towards the back.“Drop your weapons,” The chief of police screamed again.“I can’t drop my weapon, I can surrender to you,” Grey said, his

“But I never believed you would have some people who are still loyal to you. They did a nice job of setting off the fire on time.” He said making a mockery of it.Ryan glared at him, “What is your gain in all this and what do you want?” He asked with his voice dripping in fury.“I had no idea you were this smart,” he said. “I want everything you owe, Everything your grandfather gave to you including the company.” He said.Ryan giggled with the right side of his lips, he wasn’t surprised by what he said.

My laptop was having difficulty, so I thought about using yours to finish my work,” he said, getting up from the seat and walking towards Ryan.Ryan stared at him in disbelief, he didn’t believe his statement.Ryan clenched his hand into a fist. He narrowed his eyes, suspicious pricking at the back of his mind. “You should have called the technician to get your laptop checked, my laptop is confidential.
