“Mr. Thawatchai, we can’t make the payment without seeing Miss Achara.”Mr. Thawatchai’s face reddened in anger, “what nonsense.” He said Inwardly.Mickey stood up from his seat and was about to leave when Mr. Thawatchai’s guards stopped them.“Where do you think you are going, you made me lose an important business partner and you are leaving without making the payments,” he yelled angrily.Ryan took out his phone unknowingly to Mr. Thawatchai and his guards. He dialled Jerry’s numbers and put the call on record within a minute Jerry picked up the call.He was hearing everything Mr. Thawatchai was spilling out, Jerry winked at Tony who stood close to the car.“It’s time,” Tony informed his group. They pushed through the crowd throwing stones at the guards standing at the entrance of the company. The workers joined them as they continued to cause mayhem in the company.Meanwhile, Ryan and Mickey were still inside the office when two guards rushed Inside breathing heavily.“Boss, we
The media tried to ask him some questions but he refused to talk and refused to appear before them.The news about the death of Mr. Thawatchai spread like wildfire across the city and other states.Before leaving Thailand Ryan visited a few stores to get himself some good stuff as a reminder for his trip to Buriram.Even Mrs. Ashley heard about the death of Mr. Thawatchai, and she was confused about how to retrieve their documents back, so they sent someone to help them see if they could get the document back for them.Meanwhile, Ryan has already informed Nicolas about his return and Nicolas did the needful by coming to the airport to pick up his young master.Five Rolls Royce were well packed in a straight line as they waited for their young master.“Welcome young master.” His guards said in unison as they bowed their heads.The car door was parted wide open for him, Ryan bent over and entered the car and he leaned his back on the car seat, Jerry Joined him while Mickey had already l
Ryan took a deep breath, steeling himself for what was to come. “ I have gotten some evidence implicating several individuals in the embezzlement scheme of my company and I would need your help to bring them to justice.”The chief of police leaned forward, his eyes narrowing with interest. “Let me see what you got and which company you are talking about.” He said, with his eye fixated on Ryan. He was holding out a hand for the document.Ryan turned towards Nicolas, as he sought to collect the document from him. Ryan handed the documents over to the Chief of Police, Ryan's hand trembling slightly with nervosity. As the detective flipped through from one page to another. Ryan watches anxiously. His heart was in his throat as he gazed at the chief who was more focused on the document.After a few moments, the chief hoisted his head upward with a steely glint in his eyes. He stared at Ryan and his bodyguards.An awkward silence engrossed the atmosphere, “Where did you get this from?” H
The following morning after having breakfast at his mansion, he left straight to work.He stepped through the revolving door of his company, and a sense of purpose and determination filled him. It had been a week since he left for his trip and now he was back ready to dive back into the hustle and bustle of running his business empire.The lobby of the building was buzzing with activities, his employees rushing to and fro with purposeful stride. He was greeted by his staff and he reciprocated their greetings.He Sauntered towards the elevator with his butler behind him. Nicolas pressed the elevator button to the floor where his office was situated. As the elevator moved, his mind raced with the thought of the week ahead of him, there were meetings to attend, decisions to be made and projects to oversee.Finally, the elevator door slip opened and he stepped out with his butler who held his briefcase with his right hand. He was greeted by a familiar sight of his office door.“Good morn
He saw it was his grandfather, Ryan curiously picked up the call. He inhaled and exhaled deeply, a smile spread across his face as he heard his grandfather's voice on the other end of the call.“Hello, Ryan my boy. How are you doing?” Mr. Caleb boomed into the phone.“I am fine and you Grandfather.” He said, his voice filled with concern.“I am fine boy, I was informed just now that you have returned from your trip and you haven't come to see me.” He said in a serious tone.“Yes grandfather I am back and I will come to see you after work, I promise. Or do you want me to come now?” He said.“No, that would be best. After work, I will be waiting for you. I have something important to discuss with you.” Mr. Caleb uttered.“Okay, grandfather. I will be there,” he said before Mr. Caleb hung up the call.With a sense of anticipation, Ryan thought about the possibilities of what could his grandfather want to talk about that is so important, “Had Chief Franklin informed him about the evid
“Ryan, I and your mother have been thinking a lot about you concerning our family's future. Ryan and I believe it is time for you to consider settling down, you should consider getting married and starting your own family.”Ryan's eyes widened in surprise at his grandfather's statement, he stared at his mother who shook her head in response to his words.Ryan sighed. “ But grandfather, I am focused on the family business right now and I haven't thought about getting married or settling down with any lady.” He said softly.“I understand Ryan, but you are not getting any younger, your cousin Brown recently got married and it's only natural for me to want the same happiness for you and all my grandchildren.” He said.“Ryan, I am your mother and I know what's best for you. Your father got married when he was 24 and you are 24 at the moment. You should consider it, so you could have time to spend with your kids. if you don't have any lady in mind, I have female friends who have beautiful d
The following morning the entire staff of Prime Realty Group were all called upon for an emergency meeting.The meeting was scheduled to be held by 9 am at the conference hall and all staff, including those on vacation, were called to be present.Before the meeting, Ryan was at his office in his black slim-fit suit. He ambled back and forth as he thought about the scene that would unfold before his employee that day.A soft knock landed on his door, Ryan rushed to his chair and called for the person to come in, the door swung open and Vivian walked in with a fallen demeanor.She tilted her head slightly and greeted her boss, responding calmly and offered her a seat. Ryan never requested for her presence at his office and he wondered why she came.Is she feeling guilty? Did she regret helping Ryan? Is she feeling pity for Mrs. Ashley?“Vivian, You are supposed to be at the meeting hall. Why are you here,” he asked softly.“Sir, I am sorry,” she said with a low tone, with her face still
In the conference room, Mr. Caleb Baker was seated at the head of the table, his presence commanding authority and attention. Ryan was seated at the right side of his grandfather, whilst Mrs. Ashley and Mr. George were both seated at the left side of Mr. Caleb and their son being the head of the warehouse was seated behind his parents. Other shareholders and other top company representatives were all seated at the high table.There was distinct and indistinct chatting from different corners of the room. Ryan stood up, adjusted his suit and ambled towards the microphone stand. He kept a determined face, the atmosphere was tense.Ryan cleared his throat, adjusting the microphone a bit, the staff gazed at their boss as they all attuned their ears to grasp what their boss had to say, the room was engrossed with abrupt silence.He let out a heavy sigh. “Good morning, Everyone, thank you all for joining the meeting at such short notice. I have some important matters to discuss, so please le
Ryan watched as they wheeled her out, his heart was heavy with worries. He rushed and followed the paramedics team, with his mother. He knew he needed to be by her side to make sure she was alright, she just saved his life. Ryan couldn’t shake the unease feeling that was building within him, “Hold on, Elizabeth. We will get through this.” Ryan said in his mind.The paramedic’s team rushed towards their van and drove immediately to the hospital. Ryan took the key from Nicolas and rushed behind the ambulance. His heart was racing fast, he blew the horn repeatedly when they got to the highway trying to find a path for him to drive.When they got to the hospital, the paramedics team sprang into action, and Elizabeth was wheeled into the hospital. And was taken in for treatment.Ryan raced inside like someone who had been chased, he was breathing fast. He asked several nurses and he was told that she was undergoing an operation.He sat on the chair facing downward, with tears welling up
“I heard everything you said. Grey. It was you who killed Brown at the hospital. I never thought you would be this evil until today.” Victoria said with a voice mixed with anger and pain.The policemen and the guards rushed inside the building, they stopped when they noticed the scenes that were happening before them.“Drop your weapons, you are surrounded by the police.” The Chief police officer said.Grey’s heart sank into his stomach, he knew there was no way out of him. He turned to face Ryan who gave him a small smile by the side of his lips.“You called the police, Ryan. 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
His mother’s heart was pounding fast in fear, and Her eyes widened in horror. Seeing Six hefty men against her son Ryan.Tears were streaming down her cheeks and her body was trembling. Ryan placed the document on a rust table, beside him.Ryan knew he could take them if he stayed focused, he watched their movements, and his senses were on high alert. He watched as they moved towards a direction coming out with different weapons to fight against him.Grey stood behind, an evil smirk formed immediately by the edge of his lips. “Don’t kill him, we still need him alive to sign the document,” Greg instructed.The men nodded their heads intermittently while moving towards Ryan with a stern and mocking face.“You had picked the run person, Grey. You guys can walk away now you have the chance, I wouldn’t hurt you. I will give you some minutes to think about it.” Ryan said with a calm but firm tone.The men exchanged glances and laughed, “Let’s deal with him.” The scarred man said.Ryan st
“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. He knew something was odd about Grey from the beginning.“How do you think it’s going to be possible? There are people before you who have tried to take things off my hands and they failed. And one of them is your father,” he said confidently.Grey got pissed by his statement, giving him a deadly glare. With his jaw clenched. Ryan was using this as a delay tactic for the police and his men to take position. Meanwhile, Nicolas and Sebastian have positioned themselves with snipers at d
They moved slowly till they got to an open space, Ryan glanced around the room and he could see his mother being tied to a chair, her eyes could tell her story that she had pain and fear while her heart was enthralled with indescribable sorrow.It got to Ryan’s notice that she wasn’t the only one, he narrowed his gaze to the left and found Elizabeth Brian also tied at the other end.“What is she doing here and how come she was kidnapped alongside my mother.” He mumbles inwardly. Ryan was in a perplexed state but maintained his composure for the task ahead.His eyes flickered in rage while transferring the anger to his hand grip on the bag. He counted the men he saw starting from the entrance, they were a total of six men.“Where is your boss, tell him, I have what he requested and he should set them free,” Ryan said, his voice deep and showing no atom of fear.One of the gang members who seemed to be the leader, he had a scarred face, spoke with authorities.“Not so fast, we need to c
Ryan and Freddie got to the entrance of his mansion, where Ryan met his driver, Jerry. “Get in, we are heading out,” he commanded.Jerry felt something was off, he knew his master wouldn’t have sounded like that. But he believes whatever it is his master will always conquer it no matter what.Ryan felt his phone vibrate, he shoved it out placing it on a loudspeaker.“Master, Ryan. It’s Sebastian. I have news that you should know.” Sebastian said.Ryan already knew what he wanted to say, but allowed him to make the statement.“What is it?” Ryan said with a plain tone.“Master, Your mother has been kidnapped. The two guards she went out with were shot and have been taken to the hospital, we have informed the police about it. And they have sent a rescue team to search for her.” Sebastian said.“Master, I believe it was Joseph who sent those men to kidnap your mother,” he added.Ryan inhales.“I know about it, the kidnappers have contacted me.”“What did they say, did they request for any
The atmosphere was filled with laughter, and excitement as they exchanged memories of the past. Suddenly Ryan’s phone rang out, he didn’t pick up the call at first, it was the second time. He glanced at the phone screen and his eyes fell on an unknown number.He furrowed his brow, “Who could this be?” He said in his mind. He excuses himself from his friends while pressing his right finger against the phone screen.He exhaled deeply and mouthed into the phone.“Hello, this is Ryan Baker. Who am I unto and how can I help you.” Ryan said calmly.“Finally, Finally you decided to pick up my calls. You were lucky, you did. I would have sent you a message with a picture of your mum’s corpse.” The unknown caller said and from the background, one could tell it was a male voice.“Huh? Who are you and what the hell are you talking about.” Ryan questioned with a serious tone, he wasn’t finding the caller’s statements to be a friendly one. He furrowed his face.The caller laughed sarcastically
Ryan yanked the thought off his mind, while he continued with his work. His eyes were glued to the laptop screen. The day had been long filled with meetings and planning sessions, Ryan felt a sense of accomplishment as he wrapped up the last reports for the day.He shut down his laptop and stared at his wristwatch, it was 5:30 pm. He sighed in relief. There was a subtle knock on the door, “Come in,” he said in his usual tone.Ryan hoisted his head to deduce who it was and his gaze fell on Nicolas who walked inside the office, Nicolas was worried that his master had spent enough time unlike him, so he came to check to see what was happening but he found his master getting ready to leave.“Oh! I was about to call you. Get the car ready.” He said.“Okay, young master.” He replied.Nicholas left the office, closing the door from behind. Just as he was about to stand up, his phone rang. Ryan glanced at the phone screen and found Elizabeth’s name boldly written on the screen.He didn’t
He managed to maintain his composure but his mind was pounding fast, Grey had to close the tab hastily to avoid Ryan from seeing what he was doing.Grey knew he had to come up with a good answer, he wouldn’t want to be interrogated by Ryan, He could see how angry he was.“Uhhh, I was going through some stuff online. 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. I don’t want you going through my laptop again or coming into my office without my permission.” Ryan said firmly.“But Ryan, we are brothers and grandfather said whatever belongs to you, belongs to me as well.” He said. Ryan felt irritated by his words, as he walked towar
