Marcus Krafth; The Rise to Magnificence Chapter 014
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
Marcus Krafth; The Rise to Magnificence Chapter 016
Marcus was still reminiscing on everything that had happened today while he walked to the front door. His turn around in life, how he won't be bullied again at work. He was happy. All that was left was meeting his wife. As Marcus got to the entrance of his house, he realized something. He had forgotten his key, again. Marcus did not like stressing his wife after he got home from work. He didn't like knocking, though it seemed like it was slowly becoming a habit. It was likely the excitement from what was going to happen that made him forget the key in the morning. He was about to knock, when he noticed a paper at the entrance. It was stuck on the door, by the side. Marcus picked it up. It was likely from his wife. He wondered what it was about. Chantelle went out. She was invited to a social gathering by her parents along with Richard Banks. Marcus was stunned. He knew his wife understood what she was doing. She understood that he didn't

Chantelle had the best time. Today was the most fun she had had since right before she got married to Marcus. She remembered picking her dad's call. “Hello Dad.” “Hello Chantelle,’ he replied. “Let's go out tonight. It's going to be me, your mom, your sister and Richard.” “But dad, I don't think Marcus is going to be happy when he finds out Richard was there with us.” “Don't even. Don't even bring Marcus, that good for nothing man up. When he finds out, there's nothing he can do about it.” Her dad replied. “I mean, what tangible thing has he offered you since you married him? Tonight is just going to be a calm night. There's no need to overthink what you'll wear. I'm sure you'll look really good either way.” Chantelle sighed deeply. Her dad was still her dad. He knew how to convince her fully. Besides, Marcus also took his key out, she thought. Chantelle went to check. She saw Marcus’s key inside. She shook her head. What was always going on in t

Richard and Chantelle had been smiling throughout their dinner. After her Dad had made her understand the situation, Chantel realized she didn't have any other choice at that moment. She gracefully adapted to the situation. They both ordered Italian. It was a four-course meal that started with appetizers. They were both served, Insalata della Casa. This was an appetizer made up of; Mix greens, carrots, tomatoes in extra virgin olive oil and balsamic dressing. Chantelle was beaming. Both of them were maintaining small talk during this. It was the regular how her day was, what she had been doing and what she was up to. Richard was also smiling a lot while trying to maintain his gentleman aura. Every second he spent with this woman made him more attracted to her, he thought. After this, they were served the second course, which was pasta. Pasta was a fully acknowledged meal in Italy. They were served Pappardelle Al Brasato along with a Red str

Richard was still driving. He was stealing glances at Chantelle still. The lights from other cars on. The road flashed on his face constantly. Chantelle thought he looked good. “Chantelle, I know countless people must have told you you look good. But I'm still going to say it. You look good. Really good.” “Sometimes, I just stare at you and smile,” Richard said. “You make me want to keep staring. Your smile, the way your lips turn up anytime I talk and we just look at each other and smile.” “It's magical, I can't even lie.” Chantelle was still silent. Her heart was pounding. There were two voices in her head. One was telling her to fully believe and fall for Richard. The other, more tiny voice was reminding her. She had a husband. Marcus loved her fully. She knew too. Chantelle was lost. She did not know what to do. Choosing Richard with his wealth meant cuckolding Marcus. She still did not have the resolve to do that. How painful that woul
Marcus Krafth; The Rise to Magnificence Chapter 020
Richard and Chantelle had been talking at the front of Marcus’s home for over thirty minutes. Marcus and Huncho could not clearly make out what they were seeing. But, judging from their body language, it was not anything they could not guess. Chantelle was still holding her bags of clothes while looking like a princess that had just walked out of a Disney movie. If not anything, one thingarcus and Richard would agree on was that Chantelle was drop dead gorgeous. Chantelle started getting wary. She was a smart woman. She already figured out that her husband was not back yet, but had been putting that at the back of her mind for a while now. They had taken over thirty minutes here, it was time for Richard to leave, she thought. “Richard, thank you so much for today… Thank you for…” “Chantelle, I already told you it was nothing. If you keep thanking me like this, I'll feel somehow,” he replied. “I think it's time I left also,” Richard got the clue.
Marcus Krafth; The Rise to Magnificence Chapter 021
Marcus had watched Huncho drive out of the street. He waited a bit, until he could not see the taillights of the car anymore. He walked slowly as he came up to the door of his home. He wondered what his wife was doing inside right at that moment. Marcus paused briefly at the place where Chantelle and Richard had just stood. He stood rooted at that point. His mind was wavering. He stood for a while until he decided to be firm in his heart. He had a plan and he was standing by it. He would watch it play out, and hopefully it was going to turn out well for him. Marcus smiled at that moment. He was still going to trust his mind. If his father and sister were there right now, they would have shook their heads at him. Marcus, though smart and mature, had always had a soft spot for his wife. This had been obvious through the way he had lived with her before his status changed. He was bullied by her parents and he didn't even stop him from still loving her.

Chapter 148
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
