Mason frowned at the figures standing at the threshold. He should have known better that this bitch was up to no good, and Jacob Higs was the mastermind of everything. It wasn't just a coincidence the cops only showed up when Lola's clothes were torn. "I didn't do anything to her," Mason said, but the cops frowned at him. Jacob, who was at their back, wore a smile, and Mason gritted his teeth. "You are caught red-handed Mason. Don't deny it," Jacob said, rushing toward Lola and handing her his Jacket. "Are you alright?" Jacob asked Lola whose facade could break the Guinness Book of Records. Mason's heart skipped; he knew anyone who didn't know how corny Lola was would believe her words instead of him. "Mason Williams you're under arrest for attempted rape," the policeman said, pulling out his handcuff. Mason frowns at his action. He knew they would not listen to him no matter how he tried to prove his innocence."I said I'm innocent!" Mason yelled when the officer came close. The c
Mason already had the evidence he was going to use against Lola and Jacob. He thought of handing the evidence to the cops, but he shrugged off the thought; there was something sketchy about them. Mason's eyes roamed around the room, which was filled with silence, examining the cops. He noticed a similar tattoo on their wrist, one that he had seen before. A smile crept into Mason's lips, realizing his instinct had been right all along. When Jacob noticed, Mason was quiet. He smiled inwardly. 'I told you to watch out, Mason.'Mason averted his gaze to Adam, who thought he had him by the neck with a plan that he came up with while they were in class. "Mason Williams, what is the meaning of this? Why ain't you explaining yourself," Mr Osawe muttered. Even when Jacobs' explanation sounded too much like of a coincidence, it was also a big crime that involved his student, and he had to be thorough with it before making a decision.Mason's brows are pretentiously knitted together. "How ca
They all arrived at the HOD office after the PIP gang was handed to the police. Mason sat across the duo, who stared at him with irritation as they waited for the decision of the police, who were discussing with Mr.Osawe outside the office.Jacobs secretly curses Mason for ruining his plans. At the same time, Lola scrolls through the school platform, which does not broadcast the incident since Mason had secretly instructed Mr Osawe to supervise the arrest and avoid leaking the news or the media getting involved so as not to disrupt the school activities or drawing attention. Mr.Osawe was among the few people aware that the new owner was delighted and did as he was told.After a while, Mr. Osawe walks into his office with an expression that tells Mason the criminal didn't snitch on who hired them, and since the officer didn't have enough evidence to link Jacobs to the gang, they have to let him go. Though Mason hated Jacob and wanted to pay badly, he knew if he was arrested, Jacob stil
Mason exited the faculty with a nose mask and a face cap, avoiding the prying eyes of those around the premises. He entered the Bugatti and made his way to the school gate. Meanwhile, Natalia, waiting to be picked up by Jacobs, saw the Bugatti and her eyes widened. "I have seen that exact car before," She muttered to Flora, who focused on her cell phone. Flora raised her head and stared in awe. She was drooling on the luxury car that slowly pulled up at the school gate."Do you know who it is?" Flora asked Natalia, who was also attracted by the expensive car. "The person must be filthy rich to have such an expensive car for a student. I wish he was my boyfriend.""Don't you already have a boyfriend," Natalia said with a furrowed brow and Flora's frown."I need a richer guy, Natalia," Flora said, watching as the car exited the University premises. When Natalia shot her a questioning gaze, she rolled her eyes, saying. "I never said I was breaking up with him; I am sticking around to see
The man on the floor stares at Mason with eyes filled with horror and disbelief. Mason, who was still holding his plate, placed it on the table and helped Sally to her feet. A sigh escaped his parted lips, and his eyes stared at the man on the floor. Mason didn't know who this Thomas was or what business he had with his mother, but slapping one of their help struck his nerve."D…did you just slap me?!" Mr.Thomas yelled, holding the side of his face as if his ear were about to fall. "How dare you! Do you know who I am!" Mason's cold eyes daggered at him. He was tired of hearing that statement that it made his skin crawl. Mason took a step forward with one long stride. He appeared in front of Thomas, gripping him by the collar. Thomas was about to stand when another slap landed on his face, sending him back to the ground.Mason could see tears that clouded the man's eyes while his hand rubbed at his soar spot, not failing to display his distressed face laced with shock."Apologies youn
"Tonight?""Yes," Haley replied. "For some reason, Mom received an anonymous invitation to the private Auction for tonight.""How's mom going to get the necklace when the World Bank is undergoing maintenance?" Mason asked, remembering that his mother had told him their family assets had been temporarily frozen until next week. "Mom is not going to attend the Auction, rather she is meeting with the president to resolve the issues. Leaving the both of us to attend the event," Haley replied, waving the invitation card at Mason."We are attending the auction?" Haley nodded. "I want to see who buys the necklace so we can buy it back when the issues with the World Bank are resolved," Haley said. Mason plans on going to the Auction alone, but Haley already has the card, and he can't disclose the system identity to her or any person, so he has to allow her to tag along.Mason smiled. "Don't worry the necklace is coming back to our family," he said. "When are we leaving?""The auction would
Mason stared at the transparent glass separating him from the Sun And Moon necklace; its delicate design didn't fail to amaze him. The necklace was precise as it was drawn in his mother's book; the only difference was the lively color protruding from its rareness. The audience muttered among themselves, apparently stunned by the item in front of them. The Host picks up the mic with a chronic smile wandering on his face. "This rare beauty is one of a kind and would be going home with the highest bidder." He cleared his throat, gazing into the impatient crowd hungry to start the bid."For the Sun and the Moon necklace, we have an opening bid of a hundred million dollars. Can I hear a hundred million?""Hundred Million," Jacob's voice soared through the room, earning the stunning gaze of the crowd. Natalia who sat beside him wore a proudious smile relaxing in her seat, obviously enjoying the attention she was receiving."Can we have a Hundreds and fifty-""One hundred and fifty million,
Mason turned to Jacob, who had Natalia tangled by his side. He could easily see the facade of Jacob's smile, making Mason twitch with satisfaction."Good evening Mr?" Jacob asked, staring at Mason's masked face.Mason hesitated, glancing at Jacobs, who held out his hand for a shake. Mason felt his sister's eyes, urging him to respond as other people stared at them."Williams," Mason replied, shifting his eyes to Natalia, who was trying to look under his mask. "Mr.Williams, it is a pleasure meeting you," Jacob said with an evident smile, which Mason didn't reciprocate. “Are you somehow related to the Williams family?”Jacobs asked curiously.Mason was quiet but nodded, making Jacobs furrow his brows in surprise.Jacob shifted his gaze to Haley. "This must be your wife or girlfriend," he added."He is my brother," Haley replied, removing her mask. Jacob's eyes almost popped out of his socket as he stared at the lady in front of her."M…Mrs. Haley!" Jacob stuttered, making Mason wrinkle
