Marcus Krafth; The Rise to Magnificence Chapter 008
Mr Luiz smiled. He couldn't agree more to the suggestion Marcus gave. He knew tomorrow would be so embarrassing for Marcus. The more he thought of how bad Marcus would look, the wider his smile got. Chantelle noticed how wide his grin was. She was concerned, but she still stood her ground. What both of them did not know was that Marcus was less than bothered about what would happen tomorrow. In fact, he could not wait. He could not wait to see all their expressions when they found out. He felt so at ease. Is this how it feels to be rich, he wondered. It's true what they say then, Money does solve every problem. Mr Luiz stood up, still grinning, “it's time for me to go. Marcus, don't be late tomorrow. We all can't wait for how you'll apologize tomorrow.” “Alright then, Mr Luiz. My husband will be there tomorrow. I'll make sure of it.” Chantelle said. Mr Luiz marched to the entrance, with Chantelle in tow. “Goodnight,” he said. “Goodnight to you too,

“A man's knee is made of gold, he must not kneel for just anybody”. Marcus suddenly remembered one of his father's favourite quotes. Marcus lay on his side on the floor after he was pushed to the floor. His eyes were spitting fire. He looked up into the eyes of Mr Luiz. Mr Luiz shivered slightly. He always felt something was different about Marcus, today the feeling became more real. Marcus stood up. He turned to the back at his assailants. He noted their faces. They were two of his staunch haters in the factory. Marcus started laughing, loudly. He kept laughing for a while, which made everyone at the scene wonder if something had happened to him because of all the bullying he faced. “Was he running mad,” Mr Luiz wondered. “You, you want me to kneel to you and apologize,” Marcus said. “I have not done anything wrong to you or to anybody in this factory. I was even beaten just the other day over a project I submitted that you and your friends are pl
Marcus Krafth; The Rise to Magnificence Chapter 10
Mr Luiz and his friends started remembering every other occasion they bullied and fought Marcus. The most recent, of course, was just a few days ago. Dominic remembered how he spat at Marcus. Espinoza and Burn remembered the kicks they gave him. Luiz of course remembered everything. How he wanted to cheat Marcus out of his project. He remembered the first time he laid his eyes on the project that Marcus submitted to him. He had left it over and only picked it up some days after. When he had time to calmly scan it, he was shocked by what he saw. Mr Luiz did not want to believe that Marcus could think of such a thing. But, deep down, he knew Marcus was quite capable. He remembered Marcus's qualifications when he was looking to get a job in the factory. He was shocked, because Marcus was overqualified for the job he wanted. Marcus could have, in fact, applied for the job of the manager with his qualifications. When Mr Luiz found out that he had been sacked consistently and c

“What goes around, comes around.” This was another quote Marcus remembered his father saying, consistently. His father had always been one to quote words to him and his sister. They had mostly shrugged off most of them, but most had likely been imprinted in his head and they started coming back recently. Marcus felt like someone who had just caught first breath and life after being hatched from an egg. He felt new. He knew he had changed. The old Marcus carried around a lot of hate and revenge energy. He had always fantasized about when his story would change, and he would take revenge on everyone that bullied him. Now that he was in that position, he realized that, all that had happened, helped to mould him to the man he was slowly and surely becoming. The man that would take over the Krafth empire and lead it to newer and greater heights. After Marcus told the crowd, with Mr Luiz and his friends what he wanted from them, he turned around and

The scene was a high rise building. A forty floor skyscraper. This was the headquarters of the Oscorp company. It was the enemy factory of the Krafth company. At the top most floor, a meeting was going on between the board of directors. The Oscorp company had lasted almost as long as the Krafth company. The company was made up of previous enemies at one point or the other of the Krafth’s who came together when they realized that alone, they had little to no chance of touching the Krafth’s. After this realization, they pooled their resources together and formed the famed Oscorp Corporation. The Oscorp Corporation consisted of five diff families. These families were from 5 different ethnicities. They were; The Banks family, The Carlos family, The Kakashi family, The Argent family and The Zielinski family. They all had had issues with the Krafth family in the past. It is noteworthy that the Banks family just recently got admitted as one of the major
Marcus Krafth; The Rise to Magnificence Chapter 013
After Marcus and Juliet discussed in length they came to a decision. Marcus could still not tell his wife about his change in status and he would start handling some of the company's businesses from here. Also, Juliet would make sure she sternly reminds the workers of the factory not to go out and start telling people about the change of managers in the factory. Juliet stood up. It was time for her to leave. “I'm going now.” she said. “Alright.” Marcus replied. He stood up and looked at his sister. He had always been taller than her. They both smiled. Marcus hugged his sister tightly. “Don't overwork yourself anymore, I'm here now.” Marcus said in her ears. There was that confident aura again, Juliet thought. It made her want to rely fully on him. Juliet left the office first. She was followed closely by her two guards in the room and those outside. She walked in silence outside while reminiscing when they had nothing, rather still, when the

Marcus dispersed the crowd. He told them to return to their place of work. He also assigned a new workplace to Mr Luiz and his friends. Mr Luiz had to pack his things out of Marcus’s new office. The manager’s office. This did not take a long while as it was done quickly. Marcus returned to his office after that. He looked at the pile of paper on his desk. He laughed. He did not know where to start from. He decided to sit down first. Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. He wondered who it was. He just talked to his workers. He was sure they were not going to be needing anything anytime soon. “Come in,” he said. A young lady walked in. He was shocked. She was dressed in office wear. She looked… ravishing. That was the only word that came to his mind. She was an average height woman, whose face card was top notch. Though she was not smiling, he knew if she did, her smile would definitely light up the room. She was well built, as ev

It was the evening. Work had closed. It was time to go home. Marcus called Belle in. “Belle, work is over for today. Do you have a place to stay already?” “Yes sir,” she replied. “All of that has already been provided by Miss Juliet.” “I have been arranged to live in a hotel not far from your home sir. So I would be close by if you need anything.” “Alright then.” Marcus replied. Do you have a car to drive there, or would you like to ride with me till you get a car?” “I was going to get a car before tomorrow. You shouldn't worry, Mr Krafth.” Belle replied. “It's no worries. I'll just drive you to the place, you'll sort everything out by yourself.” Marcus replied. Marcus did not have any hidden agenda on Belle. In fact, he still loves his wife, Chantelle, a lot. So, he decided to respect her. He was just asking Belle out of goodwill, and so everything was done efficiently. He did not want anything to lag behind. Marcus got ready to leave

Chapter 148 Marcus looked at Belle. She was trying to hide her curiosity under her gaze but was it doing that good of a job. Marcus understood that she did not want to ask Kevin present, just in case there was something Marcus did not want him to hear. “It's alright Belle. Kevin is my lawyer and he's going to be the one representing me in my divorce case, that is happening today, and it is where I need to be first.” “How about I drop you off at work and we go on to the court and we would meet you back at the office when we are done?" Marcus asked. Deep down, he knew Belle would not choose to do this, instead she would want to follow him for support or whatever else she deemed appropriate, but she still needed to ask. “Young master, I'd like to go with you to the court, and from there we can go on to the factory when the case is over at the court,” Belle said. Marcus was right. He knew for sure this was what she would say, and he was in no mood to argue with anyon
Chapter 147
Chapter 147 Marcus slowly drifted off to sleep, after thinking about the next day for a while. His room had a soundtrack of crashing waves that had been installed since they built the hotel. When Marcus found it some weeks ago, he had started using it, and it worked really well for him. Before, Marcus had found it quite hard to sleep off, but with the soundtrack of crashing waves sounding, he found it easy to sleep, and that was what he had started doing. Marcus slept off before he knew it. The day had not been as long as it normally was, but he needed that extra rest for tomorrow, and he was not feeling too hungry before he slept, so he just chose to go ahead to sleep. The clock in his room’s slow and consistent tick was the only reminder that time was passing really fast. The blinds in Marcus's room were so thick that it blocked off the light even during the day, not to even talk about the night. After a while, Marcus had woken up. He picked up the remote on the
Chapter 146
Chapter 146 Marcus had just laid on his bed for a while,and had slowly started to drift off when his phone rang. He rolled his eyes in the dim lights of the room, as he moved and his shadow long and dark moved along with him. It was a mesmerizing sight for anyone who could see it. It was just that no one would have the pleasure of doing that. But that was not what was on Marcus's mind. He rolled over to the end of the bed where he had dropped the phone, picked it up and looked at the name of the person calling his phone. It was Luiz. It seemed like he had completed his task, Marcus thought. He hoped Luiz had not done too much and gotten caught. Because if he had, he would have made Dominic aware of the fact that they already knew he was a spy. The task he had given Luiz was fairly easy. He had been asked to follow Dominic from far off and not make him aware he was being followed. The key thing they needed to know was where he lived and ascertaining the presence of
Chapter 145
Chapter 145 Marcus told them that he had a friend that was going to be staying in the hotel too. Kevin peeked from the back of Marcus and greeted the two ladies, to which both of them bowed their heads slightly. Being respectful to Marcus because of his identity also meant that they had to be respectful to his friends. Especially this kind of one that he brought to stay in the hotel with him. Mel and her partner nodded their heads. They knew what to do. So, they prepared a suite just like the one Belle was still staying in. It was the topmost grade of suite in the hotel, and only reserved for the most extremely famous people. Even if you had the money, you would not necessarily be able to get into this kind of suite in the hotel. It also had a limited amount, so it got quickly exhausted. Though Kevin was not really famous, but, since he was recommended by Marcus, the receptionists knew to give him the best type of suite they had. They promised to prepare one for h
Chapter 144
Chapter 144 He had never mentioned anything about his father,and his friends did not ask either. Now, Dominic was back inside his house and he could not hear any sound at all. Not from his mother or even from his sister who would reasonably be loud due to the fact that her brother had gotten back from work, even when it was this late. But nothing of the sort seemed to happen. It was just silence throughout. Luiz was however satisfied with himself. His job in following Dominic was to find out where he lived. This was what Marcus had asked him to do. He did not want to be seen as doing too much, in case he got caught. Beaming with satisfaction, and after waiting for over ten minutes, he started walking back to where he had parked his car. Luiiz was walking in places where the light was not too bright. He did not want to take a game of risk regarding people in the community. He did not want them to be suspicious since they had not seen him in their neighborhood well. T
Chapter 143
Chapter 143 However, it was just the paranoia. It made his behavioral pattern compulsory.Dominic could not take any chance. He still wanted to see his family. He hoped they would not be killed, and the only way for him to preserve their life was to do what was asked of him and not be caught. Immediately he was caught, he would be useless to the people that were using him and they would not allow his family to leave since they also were of no use to them. Dominic understood this, but this was still not something he could bear. Luiz had started getting quite impatient as Dominic had kept on stopping, and now this was their fifth stop, after going round this same neighborhood for the third time. He wanted to drive away or maybe even drive up to Dominic and ask to go to his house. But this was not the sensible thing to do. It would ruin the plan Marcus had made and would literally just be counterproductive. This was not something Luiz wanted to see happen. So,
Chapter 142
Chapter 142 However, even when he was accosted by Burn, Dominic did not want to head in the same route as his boss and the people around him. It would not be a good thing for him, if he was caught that night and they started asking questions that might lead to him confessing. He had tried to time himself exactly well, this was why he had decided to go with Burn, to the place he had always parked before. When Burn asked him the question, he quickly feigned as if he forgot where he now parked and blamed it on forgetfulness. Burn's car was parked at the farthest side of the park, and by the time Dominic had started walking back to the place he parked his car, Burn had started his car and was already driving towards him and then outside. So, he had chosen to go with his friend Burn for now, and when both Marcus and Burn's car had left the park, he would go to get his car. He also looked around and saw two cars drive outside the factory. One of them looked like Espino
Chapter 141
Chapter 141 Dominic took in a deep breath and exhaled. It seemed like no one had noticed him. What he did jot know however, was that Belle had noticed him, and not only Belle, in fact Marcus had noticed him. But, Marcus was really smart and sharp. Immediately he noticed it, he was sure of what he had seen, so he quickly took his eyes off him. He did not want to spook him off, so he just looked elsewhere. It was quite lucky that Dominic was more concerned with himself at the point where Marcus was looking at his expressions,so he didn't see Marcus looking at him. In fact, he believed that nobody else saw his reaction. Marcus had come to a conclusion deep down after this issue. He was now fully sure about what the unknown spy had told them. Marcus has been keeping the information the spy gave them at arm length. Even though he wanted to believe it fully, it was not that simple. What if the person was pretending to help them, and instead use this opportunity to infi
Chapter 140
Chapter 140 Marcus did not know exactly why, but he felt safe around Kevin. It felt like Kevin was a guy he could confide in, and that was exactly what he did. He told him a lot of things he would not have otherwise told someone he was just meeting. Marcus told him about the bombing that had happened in the factory. He told him about the clues he had found, and about the person that seemed to be helping them from the inside of Oscorp. Though they did not know who exactly the person was, he was helping them regardless, and everything he had clued them on, had happened exactly how he had said it would. Marcus shared a lot of things with Kevin, and they talked till the end of the day. They did not know when time flew away and it was time to go home. It was after this discovery that they both stood up and went out of his office. Of course Belle was ready to leave. She on the other hand had been curious through the day, and had monitored the time through the day, wai
