Chapter 096 Two days later, when the information came in, he opened it up and started reading it. He was going to read it before calling the owner of the casino, just in case. It was just him being thorough. It was something that was normal for a good businessman. When he started reading it though, his eyes lit up. They were bulging, almost as if they wanted to jump out of his face. His face was a picture of excitement and disbelief. The man that was investigated seemed to be someone who was deeply related to Oscorp. They were going to need this man. He quickly stood up and ran to his boss's office. This was of utmost importance. His boss was Clement Argent, he was the first son of Maignan Argent and was a really hard working person. Even though he was the son of one of the most important persons in Oscorp, and even when he knew he did not need to work really hard, he still did. He was a young man that was really interested in business, just like his fa
Chapter 097 Everything that was said now, sounded so… cruel! But what could he do? His boss was a notorious man who was known for being wicked. He dared not say this out to his boss. Clement was notable for being really cruel and not easy to understand. He liked acting on a whim. He looked at his boss's face and saw him smiling. It was a smile that looked absolutely wicked. The young man shivered for Zeke. He suddenly felt a touch of pity for the man called Zeke. It did not seem like he would be escaping from the palms of Clement anytime soon based on this plan that has been made for him. He however did not dare show that look of pity on his face. His face just showed a look of someone who was not bothered by everything he was told. And this was the best thing to do. He knew what his boss could get. Clement was basically a terror to everyone that worked under him. Though he had been told about it, this was the first time he was going to be witnessing it l
Chapter 098 The casino owner decided to leave immediately. If he left now, he would be able to reach Oscorp Corporation before it was the closing time of the workers there. After finalizing everything with the head attendant, Andrew, he left. After half an hour or so, he got into Oscorp, and made his way over to his business partner's office. The casino owner had just asked for information on Zeke, whom he was still amazed at how the man could spend the amount of money he spent in the casino in a day. He did not want to harbor someone who would bring the police knocking on his door. Running a casino, even though legalized, was still considered as “shady business” by the police force. This was the reason he went to Oscorp the first time, and it was also the reason that had made him go back there right now. The building of Oscorp Corporation in Lagos was quite a really big one. Though it was not as big as the Krafth headquarters, it was one of the biggest ones in the city.
Chapter 099 The game had to be played in a way that the amount he was meant to win would be really high. This was meant to bait him into playing. He would not want to stop. If he was meant to win three times of the money he was going to bet, the casino owner had to make sure the money he was meant to win would be at least seven times instead of three. The only issue was that the games were going to be rigged against Zeke. He could not win any of these games. But how was Zeke to know, he could not. He would think he was playing a regular poker game. The opposite was going to be the case though.The plan was set in a way that Zeke would not be able to understand. Now, after winning for three days straight up. Zeke would have made at least three times more than the amount he had when he first started coming to the casino. This was meant to be a great confidence boost for Zeke. On the fourth day when the losing would start, Zeke would still be so sure of himself an
Chapter 100 In the meantime, while he was acting as their spy, Zeke would be given back his car, which he would use to go to his workplace everyday, but that would be all. Zeke would have to come back to the casino every night,where he would have to sleep as his house deeds would still be with them. That was the plan. The casino owner sat in silence. He was staring at the young man, who had an emotionless look on his face. “This is from higher up, way higher up, and everything must go according to the plan,” the young man said. “This is really serious, so you must not think of doing anything that would put your family in danger,” he threatened. The casino owner was also familiar with how things worked at Oscorp; he shivered after he heard the threat made against him and his family. Though he felt a little pity for Zeke, it was only for a second. He knew what he had to do, and he would do it according to the letter, without stepping a toe out of line. H
Chapter 101 “After you told me about that man, Mr Zeke, I went to Oscorp to find out information about him.” “The way he was spending money was too much, and I got suspicious of the source of his money.” “So, today I got the results back, and that was what I just came back from checking.” Andrew just looked at his boss, waiting for him to continue. “His identity, which my boss got to know, is what is leading to everything that I'll tell you tonight.” “Our best customer right now is a very rich man. His name is Ezekiel Barney, and he heads a department over at Krafth headquarters,” the casino owner said. Andrew's eyes started bulging out. He started understanding how serious this was with the way his boss was talking. It seemed like he had to pay full attention to this, he thought. Anyone and everyone who worked for The Krafth’s we're not only always happy, they got paid really well. The Krafth family was basically the richest in the world. The only iss
Chapter 102 On the fifteenth day, it started looking grim for him. When Zeke lost all the money he had, Andrew noticed the look on Zeke's face. It was a quite familiar look, as he had seen this facial expression as he had seen it countless times in the casino. It was a look of total helplessness. A look of a man who had given up or was about to give up and did not have anything again in life. Working in a casino had made Andrew quite familiar with this look, and once he saw this look on Zeke, he pounced. It was time for him to get to the real work. Now they could get on to the next step as Zeke did not have any money again. Andrew went up to Zeke who he had been observing for quite a while. He was going to play the devil's advocate. It was showtime. “Mr Zeke, I can see that you seem to be having some problems with staking. There's a solution I can throw your way if you don't mind,” Andrew said. Zeke had been lost in his thoughts. Thinking of how to tell pe
Chapter 103 The casino owner and Andrew were going according to the plan. They knew better than not to. The threat of being killed or their family being killed loomed over their heads. Clement had made it abundantly clear that at the point where Zeke agreed to use his assets to play the game, they could not allow him to play that same night. They were to try playing nice to him that night. Zeke would be told to go home and rest for one night and he should come back the next day after thinking about it deeply. And that was exactly how it went, when they had both agreed on how to exchange documents for Zeke's assets, the casino owner had asked him not to play that same night. He should go home and sleep on it, and if he was still willing to play, he could come back the next day and he would be able to then. Now, this was the point that showed what a crazy person Clement was. He had studied Zeke to a very crazy extent. As the information they got on Zeke wa
