HIS RESURGENCE CHAPTER 137TWO DAYS AGO.It took him a while to slide through the bodies that were moving against each other to the thumping of the beat. His phone had been ringing non stop and this time, he couldn’t ignore it anymore.He struggled to get out of the dance floor and into the bathroom to take the phone call.It was his father. They hadn’t spoken In a while because whenever they did, his father would try to talk him out of his fun lifestyle and get him locked up in a company, putting on suit and tie for the rest of his life and being saddled with so many responsibilities. That wasn’t the kind of life he wanted. Surely, he wanted the money, of course, you couldn’t get the best out of life without money. But he didn’t want to slave for it. So most of the time, he ignored his father’s phone calls, except when he needed money again to clear off his debt.And now he was neck deep in debt to the point that his life was being threatened, he was badly in need of money.“Hey da

HIS RESURGENCE CHAPTER 138Scarlet did a last minute check to make sure everything was packed up before pulling her luggage out and locking the door.She walked down the stairs and placed her bag next to her as she stood in front of Xavier.“I can’t believe I’m going to leave without you. Why can’t the attorney fix another day for the reading? We should be heading home already.”“It’s fine. He just wanted us to finish up with the funeral and all before doing this. Besides, he needed to be sure my uncle and nephew would be available.”“I can’t believe they’re going to be included in his will after all they’ve done.” Scarlet said, her face creased in a frown.“Father was a nice person. I know he wouldn’t leave his family with nothing. I just wish he knew what his brother did to him, maybe he wouldn’t be so nice. Rodriguez is a monster and he doesn’t deserve a brother like the Don.”“Don Alfredo is gone now. How will we prove that Rodriguez murdered his family? I’d hate to see them walk

HIS RESURGENCE CHAPTER 139The noise of the crowded street seemed to drown in the sea of his thoughts. He heard nothing, felt nothing, only the small thump in his chest showed he was living.He was still as dazed as he had been when he spoke with his uncle and when he made his way out of the state’s correctional facility. People shouldn’t be that mean and heartless, but somehow they were, and it shocked him to the bones what people could do just to get ahead of others.He shouldn’t be that surprised because he had had his share of such experiences, but this one hit differently. He had gone to the prison to talk with Rodriguez before he made his way back home. The evidence against him was clear and irrefutable. The man whom he had sent to cut the brakes in Don Alfredo’s car had been caught and all their interactions had been found. The dude had kept evidences of the job with him hoping to use that to squeeze some money out of Rodriguez in the future, but instead, it served as his tic

HIS RESURGENCE CHAPTER 140The room seemed to spin and the fear she felt drowned the noise around her. They were asking her to calm down, telling her to breathe.What air would she be breathing and with what strength would she do it?Hot tears flowed down her cheeks and her legs wobbled and gave beneath her. Everything seemed so unreal.Just yesterday, she held him in her arms, kissed him. When they said their goodbyes, she didn’t know it would be forever. He was supposed to come home to her, but he didn’t.“This can’t be happening.” She said, her voice a squeak. “Xavier can’t be dead!”“Scarlet, relax, it’s probably not his plane right? There could have been a mistake.” Angelica said. She was talking to herself too, she couldn’t bring herself to believe that the son she had longed to see and spend a long time with was gone just when she got her wish.“Let the cops check the scene before reaching any conclusion.”Scarlets lips trembled as she tried to fight back the tears. No, Xavier

HIS RESURGENCE CHAPTER 141FOUR DAYS AGOScarlet was stunned,frozen in place at the view before her. She hadn’t expected this, at least not yet. But it was real, everything.There were flowers, lots of them scattered all over in beautiful patterns. Their scent filled the air reminding her of the garden back home where she and her dad visited often before he passed away.It was breathtaking.But the flowers wasn’t the centre of everything. Something else looked better, and it was that which stopped her breath.WILL YOU MARRY ME?It was written on a placard surrounded by balloons and more roses.Was this real? Xavier, proposing to her?She walked slowly towards him when her legs finally regained locomotion. She looked behind her at Mrs Dorathy who had come to call her to the rooftop. The woman gave her a reassuring smile, her eyes glistening with happy tears.Scarlet chuckled to herself in disbelief.“Xavier— how did you—““I love you Scarlet. I have no doubt about it. My life makes se

HIS RESURGENCE CHAPTER 142Nathaniel got into the taxi that would convey him from the airport to his destination. He made a stop at the hotel his father’s secretary booked for him and unpacked his bags.“Did you get it?” He asked.“Yes, I’ll give him a call now if you’re ready.”“Do it.”The secretary dialed the number he had managed to get his hands on and gave the phone to Nathaniel as it rang.“Alexander Whitlock.” He called. “I have reason to believe that you’re messing with my plans to get my company back. That’s not good, for you.”“Nathaniel Hernandez. I wasn’t expecting a call from you. It seemed like you got what you wanted. Xavier is dead isn’t he? I saw it on the news, a bloated body was found in the sea with his identification on it.”“Yes, my plan worked, so I should be happy shouldn’t I?”“If your plan worked, you wouldn’t be calling me. I guess there’s another hurdle you’d have to cross.”Nathaniel’s face creased in a frown. It seemed he didn’t know what was going on.

HIS RESURGENCE CHAPTER 143They stood next to each other, neither of them saying a word. Aurora was still in shock. She had been trying to find him for a while now and everything she did yielded nothing. She always cane to a dead end. She had already decided in her mind that her son was dead and there was nothing she could do about it. Never in her wildest dreams did she think he would do something this extreme.Changing your identity, your face and your name, that took a lot of guts and sacrifice. But she couldn’t blame him though. He didn’t want to go to jail and the only way to escape prison was to become someone else.She wanted to say so much, but she held herself back. She couldn’t risk him getting caught.Micheal looked around to make sure no one was close by. He opened his car and got in, signaling her to do the same.“I can’t risk being seen with you. It would raise suspicion for sure.”“Where have you been Son? And what did you do to your face? Why do you look like this?”“

HIS RESURGENCE CHAPTER 144The room looked really strange. It was beautiful, simple yet elegant. The designs and furnishings were definitely done by an expert. He would know because he worked with buildings. But this touch was quite different from anything he had ever seen.He sat up and pushed the velvety blanket off of him so he could get up, but he couldn’t move his legs. They seemed to be too heavy now. His head ached too and he reached up to touch it. He felt bandages wrapped around his head.What was going on? How did he get there? And where was he exactly?He laid back down and covered himself quickly but quietly when he heard footsteps outside the room. The door opened a second later and a woman walked in, a tray in hand. He peeped through his half open eyes and saw that she was dressed as a nurse. There were fresh bandages and first aid. He eased up a bit and opened his eyes.“Where am I?” He askedThe nurse jumped, startled and placed a hand on her chest. She breathed in r
