Marcus Krafth; The Rise to Magnificence Chapter 042
It was a series of explosions. Marcus and Belle could see bright sparks of fire light up the factory. There was no need to ask what had happened. The Oscorp corporation spies had launched a preemptive strike. Late yesterday evening, after closing hours, Dominic, Espinoza and Burn waited a while for their friend, Luiz, to come back from the inspection with their new boss, Marcus. They had all waited for over fifty minutes. When they saw that he was not coming, they decided to leave without him. Dominic, Espinoza and Burn proceeded to walk to the car park. They all walked there, entered their cars and made each other good night. They all drove off, one by one, with Burn up front and Dominic at the rear. Unknown to both Burn and Espinoza, Dominic had only driven for a while and lost both their cars and decided to turn back. Dominic did not in any way want to alert his friends to what he was doing in the factory. He had a secret meeting this evening and
Marcus Krafth; The Rise to Magnificence Chapter 043
It was a wild day in the factory. People running around. Some screaming in pain, or fear, or both. Some lay on the floor injured, while some of them picked themselves and walked away from their point of injury. It was a sad sight. Marcus and Belle, after seeing the letter directed to him, were silent. Marcus was sad and angry. His workers were outside, in pain, clamoring for help. He was angry because this was set up just because it was the Krafth family that came to possess the factory and not the Oscorp Corporation. At this point, the hate for the Oscorp grew higher in his heart. He was going to fight. Fight till the end against them. He slowly dropped the paper in his hand on the table. He walked to the window overlooking the factory once again. He saw the fire all around him. Belle was quiet and had not said a word at this point. She could feel the aura emanating from Marcus's body at this point. It was solid and angry. It was also cold.
Marcus Krafth; The Rise to Magnificence Chapter 044
Marcus had left the factory really late again. It seemed like since he became the boss there, something had been happening every day. It was a really weird thing. After the paramedics had taken care of every injured person at the factory, and the firefighters had killed every fire, it was really late. Marcus has even sat down and stared into space. What was happening, he had thought. It just clicked to him at one point that it was really late. His wife was at home, and he had been getting home really late. Knowing how smart his wife was, she was probably already noticing his late coming, even if she had not said anything about it. He took a look at the factory. He would be here tomorrow morning, he thought, and this time, this time, it was war against the Oscorp Corporation and every spy that worked for them in his factory. Marcus had left immediately. He did not have anything in his office that he needed. He walked straight to the car park. Huncho was

Chapter 045 Yesterday was a really stressful day for Marcus. After the explosion at the factory which he deemed to be his fault, he had gone home to his wife, kissing another man, in his own home. She has tried apologizing and had even tried to make it his fault later on. Marcus realized as he got ready for work today that, as much as it was her fault, it was his also. However, this was still no reason for her to cheat on him in their matrimonial home. Marcus saw the food she had packed for his breakfast and an apology note on his way out of the house. He just picked it up and went out of the house without reading it. Marcus walked a while, until he was out of his neighborhood. He saw Huncho parked, just ahead. As he drew closer to the car, Huncho got down to open the door for him. “Good morning boss. How was your night?” he asked. Marcus did not know how to reply. He zoned out for a bit. He came back to, and entered the car. “It was fine, than

Stephen had decided since he was younger that if not anything, he was going to become a spy for the Krafth’s in any Oscorp related business. So, when he was chosen to represent them and work in the Banks' side of business in Edinburg, he was thankful. He had been working there for over a year as a secretary, when he became privy to the plan against Marcus. Normally, the identity of Marcus was still not known to the world, but, Stephen being friends with Belle and both of them working for the same person, knew who Marcus was. Stephen once he got to know about the plan against Marcus, immediately left work. He called in sick, rented a car, went to get some guns in his rented apartment. He did not want to stand out so he got a very small and not exactly luxurious car. Stephen, on finishing this, went ahead to where he believed the plan was going to go down. Ok getting there, he heard gunshots, and he immediately jumped down from the car and got into the f

Marcus had just removed the ‘cloak’ he wore when he was about to enter the building in their boss's office when he heard a voice he had almost forgotten. “Marcus,is that you?” the voice asked. That voice, Marcus thought. That was the voice of Dave, David Sommer. Marcus slowly looked up. He hoped in his mind that it was not Dave. He settled his eyes on the person that just called out his name. It was Dave! Dave Sommer has been Marcus's best friend and roommate when they both were studying in the university. They had met on the first day of resumption in the prestigious Edinburg International University. Marcus, a bright-eyed young man, had been offered a fully paid scholarship to study there. This was something he could not have dreamed of. The university was one where influential and very rich people went. Marcus was very shocked and happy when he got a letter of a fully funded scholarship from the school. He knew this was a step forward. It

Luiz walked to his car silently and deep in thought. The factory has already started undergoing reconstruction early this morning. It seemed like the owner, Juliet Krafth, already learned about what happened in the factory yesterday. Luiz thought she would come here to ascertain the level of damage, but it seemed she was not going to. Miss Krafth must have already talked to the boss, he thought. Marcus however had still not called for him today, he wondered if anything was the problem. Luiz got to his car and opened it. He got inside and just used a hand to bring forward his food from the back seat. He got his lunch and got down from the car. While locking the door, he noticed something on the windscreen. A ticket? He moved closer and found out it was a letter. Luiz took a few seconds looking at the letter. Who could have dropped a letter on his car? Was it dangerous? Was he safe? These kinds of questions were flying through his mind. After

Chapter 049 A slight moan came out of Chantelle’s lips. It was the most invigorating and thought compelling thing Richard could swear he had ever heard in his life. The day had started almost the same way for Chantelle. Except for making breakfast really early for her husband. Chantelle was hoping to use that as a way to apologize to him. He had caught her cheating on him in their home. When she and Richard were caught, she was scared. Scared that Marcus would not take it well. Scared that he would make a lot of noise about it. However, the reverse was the case. Marcus had been quiet, he had let her do all the talking instead. One thing was however making her feel… funny. She had seen a look in Marcus that she had never seen before. It was slight. Just slight indifference. Then there was the rest of emotions that had passed through his face. Anger, disappointment, betrayal. She has woken up really late, even for her. It was hours after her husband h

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
