HIS RESURGENCE Episode 115
HIS RESURGENCE CHAPTER 115The room seemed to reduce in size and the ventilation did nothing to cool up the atmosphere. It was just as he expected, but somehow it still shocked him. He sat back down and tried to push the thoughts aside, but he could not. He felt like screaming but he couldn’t do that now. Scarlet was close by and he didn’t want her to find out what he has just learned. He didn’t want her revisiting the incident.He was right all along, the voice he had heard was familiar and he had tried to connect the dots. Now everything was much clearer. He remembered Benjamin Whitlock’s words when they met at the cafe outside the building.“I’m sorry I called you out here in the middle of work.” He started. “But there’s something I think you should know.”“What is it?” Xavier replied“That man you asked me about. Marcus, your step father for the while your mother was married to him, I know him quite well.”Xavier shifted to the edge of his seat. They never did conclude their dis

His Resurgence CHAPTER 116Scarlet took another glance at Xavier, he had been acting weird abt there was something off about his mood even though he did his best to hide it. She wondered what could have happened to make him so glum.She snakes her fingers in his and he turned his gaze from the road and looked at her. She smiled reassuringly at him and he reciprocated her action, and then he turned back to the road almost immediately.“Are you alright?” Scarlet asked, worry creasing her face. “You seem to be in a sour mood.”“I’m fine.” He replied, not looking at her.Xavier didn’t want to tell her about his findings. He wanted to keep her as far away from this mess as possible. Everything had happened because of him and he didn’t want to drag her into this, especially since Marcus was a very dangerous man. He had carried out an investigation on him and had seen the numerous crimes he had been charged with. Drug trafficking, illegal gambling, robbery, fraud and god knows what else. On

HIS RESURGENCE CHAPTER 117Aurora stormed into Benjamin’s room and flung the door open. She was obviously in a sour mood. Benjamin looked up from the the mini study he had in his room when he heard the noise. What was that about?“You have the nerve to rat me out Benjamin. How could you do that?”“What are you talking about?” He asked wiping the glasses that sat on his nose and putting them on again.“You met up with Xavier and told him of my involvement with Scarlet’s kidnap.” She replied heaving with anger.“So his suspicions were right after all. All I did was tell him about Marcus. He was curious about his childhood and has been having memories of him lately. He figured out that Marcus was behind the kidnap on his own and that alone implicates you automatically.”Aurora pulled up a chair and sat across from him. “You shouldn’t have told him about my relationship with Marcus. That was what set everything in motion.”“Xavier is a smart man. Wether I had told him or not, he would ha

HIS RESURGENCECHAPTER 118“Where have you been?” She heard a voice ask immediately she entered the house. Scarlet was exhausted already and wasn’t really in the mood to talk but she knew he would misunderstand her if she didn’t say anything. Xavier had been quite edgy this past few days and he didn’t want to tell her what was going on with him. Honestly, she was feeling quite distant and it seemed they were slowly pulling apart. She didn’t want that, but she needed Xavier to make a move too, at least to show that he wanted her around him.She took off her heels and sat on the sofa, rubbing her foot. “I went out to see a friend.” She replied, not wanting to go into the details. She could tell that Xavier didn’t like Felix one bit. She wondered if it was because he sensed that she wasn’t comfortable around him and was just trying to protect her or if it was because he was jealous that another guy wanted

HIS RESURGENCECHAPTER 119Xavier closed the documents he was looking over and shut down his computer. Who was he kidding? He wasn’t focused and had been reading a single page in the last thirty minutes. He hadn’t been himself since the argument with scarlet.‘Should I call her? Where would she be right now? I hope she’s home.’ He thought to himself.When she left, he sat down and evaluated everything she had said to him. She was right,and he had been wrong to accuse her like that without any concern for her feelings. He had hurt her and it was all because of his jealousy.Yes, seeing them both together at the restaurant had angered him. He claimed that he did not have any feelings for her then why did it affect him like that? Who was he fooling?He felt sorry for taking it out on her but he couldn’t call her right now. She probably wouldn’t pick up the phone.His phone rang and he check

HIS RESURGENCE CHAPTER 120ASIAThe room was a small one with little ventilation. The only source of light in the room was a small opening in the wall that served as a window, but it was more or less like a peep hole, just enough to allow air enter the room so that the occupants would stay alive.That was where he had lived, for days which turned into weeks until he could no longer take it. He had to get out, had to find his way back home, back to his life where he lacked nothing.Here, he was a common beggar. He lived on the street and found his food in the trash. His home was that little room, along with others like him who had lost everything they had.No one knew him here in this small village and it was a miracle he was able to make it here. He had been smuggled by sea into the country weeks ago to begin a new life. His old one had been ruined beyond redemption, and the people behind it would pay dearly.He sat down in that little room one fine sunset, peeping through the little

HIS RESURGENCE CHAPTER 121Angelica Morgan White was the name boldlyWritten on the glass plaque that stood on her desk. The owner of the office was punching away on her computer, her attention fully focused.She was the CEO of Stellar couture, a fashion designing brand that was well known in London.A gentle tap on her door caused her to look up, her eyes leaving the designs she was sketching.“Ma’am.” Lucian called. “The private investigator is here to see you.”“Let him in.” She replied, trying to hide the excitement in her voice.She shut down her computer, knowing she wouldn’t be able to focus until she got the report she had been waiting for.“Detective Carson. Have a seat.” She said, motioning towards the chair across from her.“We found him.” He said sitting down.Her heart leapt. Finally, she had located her son after years of searching. “Where is he?” She asked.“He is in New York, and he’s now the owner of the Whitlock corporation, more like he bought it over.”“He wasn’t

His resurgence CHAPTER 122Lucian removed his glasses and wiped them clean from the sweat that had gathered. He was already exhausted and hungry but his boss showed no sign of giving up. He cleared his throat, wondering how he would start the near impossible process of convincing her to leave.He glanced over at her and saw that her eyes were still glued to the building, her gaze intense and he wondered if she even remembered to blink.“Ma’am your eyes are going to be sore if you don’t give it a rest. We’ve been here for over an hour. If anyone notices how long we’ve been parked here, we’ll be reported to the cops for sure.”She gave no heed to him and continued her staring contest with the building that housed Hernandez conglomerates. She needed to see her son once more before she could bring herself to leave.“This is stalking you know.” Lucian continued “we’ve been following him all day, I’m sure by now he must have noticed your car tailing him. You don’t want to scare him off do
