2024-10-29 19:42:56A few moments later, a black Benz car drove by and parked in front of Leo.
The sudden appearance of the car got tongues wagging. The black Benz was not any ordinary car, it was the latest model and it was still on exclusive access. That meant that whoever owned the car was definitely amongst the top 100 richest people in the world.When the woman called him and said that she would be coming to pick him up, he didn't expect her to come in a car that was as luxurious as this one.'I didn't know that the old man was this wealthy....' Leo thought to himself.Suddenly, the tinted window of the driver's seat rolled down to reveal the face of the most beautiful woman that Leo had ever seen in his life.A small face with flawless white skin, azure blue eyes, and blonde hair that shone lusciously.Some of the people who were around when her car drove by were amazed when they saw her through the window. Just like Leo, they were all enchanted by her beauty and some of them even brought out their phones to take photos.However, public attention didn't seem to faze the lady at all because she ignored the crowd and concentrated on Leo. She looked at him from head to toe with an obvious look of disgust in her eyes. His hair was disheveled and his shoes were dusty so he was definitely giving off a bad impression at that moment.It was obvious that she was disappointed in what she saw but she kept her mouth shut. She just couldn't understand what her grandfather wanted in a loser like Leo."You're the Leonardo Dubois right?" She asked reluctantly."Huh?" The question snapped Leo out of his enchantment and he nodded awkwardly in response."Get into the car." She sighed and rolled her eyes.Leo hesitated for a moment as a flicker of doubt surged up in his mind.This woman was a stranger to him, he didn't know who she was or where she was taking him, and the only reason he agreed to give her an audience was because of the man who sent her......Mr Maxwell Jones.If it wasn't for him, he wouldn't even be speaking to this woman."What's the matter?" She asked him harshly when she noticed him hesitating at the door, "Are you getting in or not?""I am," Leo replied and entered the car.****"Isn't that Melissa's wretched husband?" Agnes, Melissa's mother asked,"In the flesh." Her son replied,"Why is he getting into that type of car driven by a woman? Is he cheating?" Agnes was beside herself in shock. She never believed that Leo would be able to acquaint himself with people who had that level of wealth. ‘Melissa’s secretary told me that Melissa’s going to divorce him.’ He shrugged,Agnes turned sharply to her son and asked, "this could be the reason she divorced him. She found out that he was cheating.""I'm not surprised at all," Her son replied, "he's such a wretched and shameless man.""I still can't believe that Melissa once fell for that useless fellow..." Agnes shook her head slowly in disgust, "he can't even work for his own money. Look at him running after women who are wealthier than him. He's such a shame to manhood."****While the beautiful lady drove to their destination, she took advantage of that opportunity to take a closer look at Leo who was sitting beside her on the passenger's seat.She had observed him from head to toe for the one-millionth time yet she couldn't find out what made her grandfather call him a man of great power. He was just good looking, apart from that he looked like every other regular broke young man struggling to feed daily.While they drove to Mr Jones' mansion, Leo found his thoughts drifting back to Melissa and that final look that she had given him before she left with her secretary. 'was that pity or regret?'Leo was so engrossed in his thoughts that he did not notice when they arrived at their destination and the car came to a stop."Huh?" He exclaimed softly as the car stopped abruptly, "Are we there yet?""Follow me." She said and stepped out of the car with elegant moves."Oh...ok," Leo said as he quickly got out of the car and followed her while silently admiring the colossal mansion that they had arrived at.The quality of the bricks, the windows, and the architecture told Leo that the owner of that house was extremely wealthy. Even before he acknowledged the superiority of the house, the cars in the garage caught his eye and by the time he had finished calculating the net worth of those cars, he simply concluded that the man's money was probably limitless.The beautiful young lady who brought him to the house led him inside and Leo realized that there were a lot of servants and guards who worked in the building.He was quickly snapped back to attention when the soft sounds of the lady's heels on the marble floor stopped. He looked up and saw that she had stopped in front of a large double door.

Everyone was shocked at Leo's action and they all yelled in raw fear. Even the bodyguard who was stationed in the room pulled his gun and pointed it at Leo."What are you doing?!" the young Miss cried out in panic and slapped Leo's hand."Gentlemen, gentlemen, let's be civil about this," Leo said in mock surrender as he put his hands in the air. "I'm going to cure him, didn't you guys bring me here to cure him?""Cure him?" One of the doctors asked angrily, "Do you seriously expect us to believe that bullshit? Can you guys hear him?"Another doctor said, "He's trying to tell us that an unlicensed individual like him can cure an illness that professionals like us haven't been able to cure for weeks now. That's the biggest joke of the year."Leo gently put the knife down and shrugged, "It's not a big deal if you don't want me to treat him. But one thing that I'll assure you is that he doesn't have much time left."What's this dumbass talking about?" One of the female doctors said and ch

The moment the scalpel pierced the man's chest, he made a loud gasping noise and it was then that everyone in the room realized what Leo had done."Oh my God! What have you done?!" the lead doctor asked in pure despair and terror.The bodyguard who hadn't noticed Leo earlier suddenly tackled him to the ground and locked him in a chokehold.He began to tighten the chokehold on Leo's neck with a single motive- murder.Luckily for Leo, the young Miss quickly intervened before the guard could squeeze the life out of him."Wait, don't kill him yet," she said as she towered over them on the floor.Once she noticed that the guard's chokehold had loosened, she bent down and slapped Leo across the face.WHACK!Turning to the doctors, she said, "Someone please take out that scalpel before he dies."The doctors had been hesitant to remove the scalpel because they didn't want to complicate the old man's condition any further. When Leo noticed that the doctors wanted to remove the scalpel, he yel

Helen's face turned sour when she heard her grandfather call Leo's name.She had wanted to hug him when he woke up but now that he was mentioning the name of a man that she disliked, she frowned and kept her hands to herself."Why are you looking for Leonardo Dubois?" Helen asked irritatedly, "he almost killed you."If her grandfather was shocked by that statement, he didn't show it because his facial expression remained cold, devoid of emotions as he asked again, "Where is Leonardo Dubois?""Grandpa," Helen tried to speak softly but her voice betrayed her and dripped with thick irritation, "you don't need Leonardo Dubois, I've already called Mr. Greg."For the first time since he woke up, the old man's facial expression changed to a frown and he opened his mouth to say something.

"I need you to promise me that you'll marry my daughter, Helen."'What is this man talking about?' Leo asked himself, 'where did he get this hilarious idea of telling me to marry his daughter?'Before Leo could compose himself from the shock of Maxwell's request and give a response, Helen butted in with a hot-headed rejection."No! No way in hell Grandpa!" She cried, "There's no way I'm getting married to this man. That's not how things are done."As she spoke, she eyed Leo with contempt, Leo noticed the death glances that Helen was sending his way and he couldn't help but shake his head and think, 'The feeling is mutual.'He then turned to Maxwell, summoned his most polite voice and said. "I'm sorry sir, but I can't grant this request. It's beyond me."Leo could see the disappointment cloud Maxwell's face when he heard his response.‘What if I can help you to find out the truth about the death of your parents?’For years, Leo had no clue about this, how could he know it.

Melissa drove her mother and her brother to the hospital with her secretary in the car.Throughout the journey to the hospital, all Agnes did was to threaten Leo and curse him endlessly."That failure of a man called Leo is going to pay for harming my son," Agnes seethed, "I don't care what it's going to take. I'm going to make sure he eats the dust for daring to lay a hand on my son."Melissa gnashed her teeth as she drove to the hospital.

115 Kyrian's Daughter
Sarah, Kyrian's daughter sat in her baby's nursery desperately trying to shush her from her screaming. She had already fed her twice but the child just kept on wailing at the top of her lungs. She had fired the baby's nanny a few days ago after she found out that she was having an affair with her husband. She had kicked him out of the house too and he had slept on the front porch for three nights in a row knocking and screaming and begging her to let him in. She promised to call the police each time his noise woke her up. It was probably the wedding contract she had made him sign before they got married that made him so desperate to win her back. He had signed away thirty to forty five percent of his business empire if they were ever to get divorced depending on the length of the marriage, currently she was eligible to take up to thirty nine percent of all he had without even lifting a finger.The affair had began from the night she hired the nanny and she didn't even know until she

Kyrian groaned as he got off the helicopter. At his age he didn't enjoy sitting in the sticky helicopter seats any longer. Old age took away certain luxuries from him he would never get back."Good day sir" the security guard greeted him as he stepped down onto the grass."Good day. Where's my car and escort?" Kyrian asked while responding curtly to the greeting."Right this way sir, just follow me" the guard said and began to lead the way to where the cars were parked. At a comfortable speed they should be able to reach Dartford City before night fall where he had dinner reservation with Leonardo Dubois.

Gordon wiped his brow, the steam from the pots blurring his vision. The clatter of plates filled the small kitchen of St. Jude's Orphanage, a rhythmic echo of lives lived in shadows. He had just finished scrubbing a particularly stubborn pan when the sharp whistle pierced the air, cutting through the dull mood of the evening routine. Instinctively, he froze, the scrub brush still in his hand, unsure what was happening.“Come on, Gordon! We need to hurry!” shouted his roommate, Ethan, bursting through the door with a wild look in his eyes.“What....What’s going on?” Gordon asked, his heart pounding as he dropped the brush and followed Ethan into the hallway. The other boys were already racing past them down the hallway , they were laughter and shouts a mixture of excitement and anxiety which left Gordon more perplexed .“It’s a billionaire!” Ethan exclaimed, his voice barely above a whisper, yet it crackled with energy. “He’s coming to adopt a kid from the orphanage.

Jason stared open mouthed at the man who stood before him. He had a chance to see the most vulnerable side of one of the richest men in the world. He didn't know what Leo was trying to hide his child from but he knew that it must be something or someone dangerous."I brought half your payment in full. My friend Hazel will be traveling with you and when you drop them she will get you the remaining half of the money" Leo said as he motioned to Hazel. "Where exactly an I going to drop them?" Jason asked Leo but he shook his head in reply. "I don't know. The only people who know are Hazel and James who chose the location. Hazel won't tell you the destination either until you are out of the country's airspace to avoid any sort of device picking up communication" Leo said a little bit paranoid but of course he was paranoid, if a deranged killer with a personal vendetta against you snuck into your house so easily with the sun if killing your wife, you'd be terribly paranoid."Alright then

"What the fuck" Leo cursed as he stumbled out of his vehicle. He saw Hazel and Ross's vehicle reversing quickly and stopping a few feet away from the hitman's crashed car. They carefully stepped out while keeping their heads down. Leo got to the car them and forced the car door open. He took one good look at the half conscious hitman before reaching over and snatching the gun out of his hands"This moronic unprofessional is why you two were running over thirty minutes late?' Leo asked them with a slight smirk and they both laughed."You should have seen yourself when you realized we were being pursued. You practically made that turn like a formula 1 driver" Ross joked before he walked up to Leo and wrapped him in a hug. "Any one hurt on your side?" Leo asked with concern but they both shook their heads. "What of Helen and James?" Hazel asked a little worriedly but she smiled when she saw Helen helping James out of the car and waving at them."They're fine. We have to get out of her
