Jack sniffed as he averted his gaze, “My grandma, talked to someone who helped me out. It wasn’t an easy decision but I am happy to be back.” He said, avoiding eye contact with Harry. “Why not check out the gift,” Harry nodded as he unboxed the gift and found a (TAG Heuer Aquaracer Automatic Blue Dial Men’s Watch and a Macbook Pro 14 inch) his eyes wide slightly. “Wow, this is dope bro.” He said with a warm smile. “I love it, bro, thanks.” He said, hugging his friend. Before they disengaged, and he returned to stare at the gift. He was amused, he had a mixture of excitement and jubilation. He was desperately looking for a laptop to help him with most of the school work, and now his friend got one for him. “Bro, I must confess you have saved me from stress. I am saving to get a laptop, but here I am looking at one. All thanks to you.” He said as he felt emotional. He was almost moved to kneel, but Jack was fast enough to stop him. “You don’t have to do that, we are friends. You ha

Jack staggered backwards, almost falling but he held his feet strong. “You can’t even hold yourself, you look like someone suffering. Why not go to any of these cheap restaurants to eat? I can give you a tip to add up. Fuck off.” He scoffed.Anger simmered beneath Jack’s composure, this was not just embarrassing but infuriating. Jack reached into his pants pocket, shoved out his phone and dialled a number.“Who are you calling? Do you think you can threaten us with a fake call? We are used to those tricks.” The guard said in disgust. Jack glared at him, without uttering a word. He was about to unleash something they didn’t expect. “Hello, Young master. How are you enjoying your day? Is there anything you want me to do for you?” He asked.“Kelvin, I need the manager’s number. I am at the entrance of the hotel. The guards refused to grant me access inside.” He said.“What? Are they high? Don’t worry, I am on my way, master.” He said angrily.“No, Kelvin. I want the manager’s number,

Jack gave the cold glance, “I want them gone,” he said to the manager, his voice steady but firm. “I don’t want anyone working here who judges guests by their appearances or disrespects them like this.”“Of course, Young master. They will be dismissed at once, their behaviour is unacceptable.” Elliot Gideon responded immediately.Without hesitation, the manager turned his gaze at the two guards who were covered in sweat, “You are fired, leave this place right now, and never come back. If I ever see you around here, I will make sure you won’t return home the same way.” He snapped.The guards were pale, with their eyes widened in horror and regret. “ Please, sir. We are sorry. We beg….”The manager didn’t allow them to complete their words, he yelled at them angrily, “I said leave, don’t make me call my men to drag you out.” He roared, pointing towards the gate.The guards got up with their expressions covered in humiliation and heartbroken. This was all their fault; if only they had d

“What nonsense, how can the hotel close the section? Where is the manager? I want to see him, call him out immediately.” The guard stood still and didn’t act like he cared about what was happening before him. “Are you deaf? Call me the fucking manager? Tell him his presence is needed here immediately. Why can’t we go inside,” “I am sorry, the young master is having dinner inside and he wouldn’t want to be disturbed.” The second guard responded. “Young master.” Clara Grant spat. “Since when has the young master decided to shut the diamond section because he is having a meal, I don’t care to know who the young master is. Where is he? I want to talk with him, step aside.” Jesse said furiously, he wanted to see who would dare to ban them from their usual spot. He tried to push the guards aside, but they were too strong for him; he couldn’t stand them. He knew if he continued, he would disgrace himself in the presence of his girlfriend. He sighed heavily backing out. “I am warning yo

Jack’s class had just ended when he left; he was walking through the corridor. He could hear the students hissing and sighing as he made his way. If there is one thing that left the students in a state of confusion, it was the fact that since Jack returned to Crestview, he had shown no sign of weakness but determination to succeed. He could be seen most of the time running to class. His actions most of the time, didn’t baffle the students only but the Vice chancellor who wondered about him. Knowing his father is the richest man, and with a phone call, he could get him anything he wanted, but Jack was working hard to achieve success. On his way to the library, he heard his name. He turned to see Anna running towards him. Jack had always had a soft spot for her, and he believed now would be the best time to ask her to be his girlfriend.“Hello, Jack. I have been looking all over for you. I heard you returned to Crestview. Sorry, I wasn’t able to thank you for what you did for me at t

Jack didn’t bother going to his dorm after coming out of the library. As he walked out of the school gate, he took a cab and headed towards a restaurant downtown. When they arrived there. He noticed some guards parked by the side waiting patiently for him.He glanced around before entering the car, which was parted open by the guard whose head was tilted slightly. He closed the door, as they entered into their car heading towards the estate.They arrived at the entrance of the estate, Jack’s heart was pounding fast in his chest, with several thoughts that had engrossed his mind.He alighted from the car, as he made his way into the mansion. Jack glanced at the mansion. It wasn’t the same as their father’s mansion, but it was beautiful. Everything around the mansion seems to be made of gold. “Welcome home, master,” Kelvin said as he ambled forward with his head bent. “I have been waiting for you, everything is ready.” Jack tried to fake a smile; he didn’t know how to react knowing he

“Here master, your father said I should hand this to you. It’s a gift, a Vacheron Constantin wristwatch for the host.” Kelvin Wang informed.Jack stared at the small bag that was handed to him, he took the bag from Kelvin without uttering a word. He drew a deep breath as he pushed the door open, and stepped onto the red carpet. Camera lights began flashing towards his direction.He held his head high, adjusting his posture. His shoulders were back, chin slightly lifted confidently. He moved forward with Kelvin behind as they moved towards the massive double doors. Crystal chandeliers hung overhead, casting a soft, golden light over the room.The floor was polished marble, and towering arrangements of fresh flowers lined the walls, filling the air with a subtle, intoxicating fragrance.Just as he entered, all eyes turned towards his direction; everywhere he looked, there were faces masked, glancing his way, subtle nods of acknowledgement, fleeting smiles. It was as if they knew who he

The mansion was quiet in an early morning light, Jack stirred in the plush bed. The events of the previous night were still fresh in his mind. He didn’t plan to sleep at the mansion, but because he couldn’t return, he decided to sleep over. He rose from the bed, dressed and was ready to face the activity of the day, he was determined to keep his identity a secret. Breakfast was served promptly in the dining hall; awaiting him was a freshly baked croissant, fruit platters, and an assortment of delicacies. Kelvin Wang stood by the side; Jack glanced at him.“Why are you standing there, come join me.” He said with his voice barely above a whisper.“I am sorry but I can’t, young master.” Jack frowned his face, “It’s an order, if you’re not eating with me, I am not taking a bite ” Kelvin Wang inhaled and exhaled softly, staring at Jack whose arms were folded below his chest. “Okay, I will.” He said, pulling out a seat and joining Jack.The two began, and Jack smiled.“Master, will you
