The door of the room was pushed open, and Leroy walked in. As soon as the men saw him walk in, they all bowed to him. But Leroy didn't pay attention to them. He looked across the room. Seeing Damien, he walked straight and fell on his knees. "Young Master."It didn't take forever for the group to figure out what was happening. Their eyes almost popped out of the sockets. "Young Master?""Did he just say young Master?""Could it be?""Could Young Master mean?"It seemed as though some of the men were starting to draw a closure but were reluctant to say the words. "Get up. Didn't I tell you not to go through such formalities anymore?"Damien scolded Leroy. Though he hadn't intended for his voice to be loud, the group had heard him. "Is he truly?"A man whispered to his neighbour. Leroy got up and turned to the group. "What do you think you are doing? Why are you just standing there as rods?!!!"Leroy raised his voice, scolding. The men got what he meant immediately and bent down i
"Who is he calling?""The BMX girls?""I'm not sure.""Y'all just be low with it."The men argued amongst themselves as they anticipated what Damien was up to. Not long after, the door of the hall was pushed open, and nine beautiful young ladies walked in. "Oh, my world!""I'd be damned.""Where did they all come from?""Mars, perhaps?""That's lame."The girls bowed to Damien and then made a file at one angle. The elites were curious and restless. They were looking to know what the next line of action would be. "Tell the BMX girls to gather around and be here in the next ten minutes."Damien ordered, and the man whom he had spoken to dialled a number at once. They watched the man speak over the phone for a while, then drop the call. "You should have your seats now."He relieved the men of the punishment. "Nagazumi, hand me your mask."Damien called, and Nagazumi hurried to him at once. To the rest of the men, Damien might appear rude and disrespectful. But Damien knew that he w
"Did he just call him the Heir of the Consortia?""How?""How in the world is this possible?""Do you mean the great Heir who has been hidden all this while?""Did we just casually see him out of the blue?""Out of the blue, you mean out of nowhere?!"The nine girls were left in the hall. There was an elite who was still at the door. The last man to leave. But then the man hesitated and turned to the girls. "Here, have my number."He called Evelyn, and she rushed to him. "I'll see what I can do for you."He promised then left. Evelyn flipped the card in her hand to this and that side. She didn't look quite impressed. "What do we do now? How do we get to talk to him ever again? He is obviously changing the name of the group.""Is that your worry right now? Is the name of the company the only thing you can think of? How about the fact that our greatest fear is about to be actualized?""I warned you. I said it. I said that this might happen at the end of the day."Evelyn muttered. "W
"Please excuse me for a moment."Ari said to the girls and then walked to the other side of the deck. "Please come."He called at Damien. Damien stared at the ladies for a while. Some of them were winking at him. He walked to meet Ari. "I know you have every right to see me as a joke."Ari started. "But you can go ahead and prove it for yourself. I mean, the news about going to the island with me."Damien's gaze was cold and unamused. Ari sighed. "Didn't you receive a call from a private number? If I were the one who was the brain behind all of this, why would I have called you with a private number?"Ari was doing all he could to get on the good side of Damien. Damien was not ignorant of that fact. "Did I argue with you otherwise?"Damien finally spoke. "Huh? Really?"Ari was a little surprised. He chuckled. "For a moment, you made me worried. I mean, you have such a weird expression on your face. Anyone could have misconstrued the motive behind it."Damien took a step closer
Three of the ladies ran to Damien and grabbed him by the arms and legs; one fell on her knees, grappling at both his legs. "Please save him.""Don't let him drown."Damien shook himself free from their hold. He turned around and leapt off the yacht. "What do they think I am? A murderer?"He went deep down into the water, dived for a while, and collected the lad in his arms. With few strokes and sways, he was back at the surface of the water. He pushed Ari over his head onto the yacht and climbed after. "Boss?""Boss?""Is he alright?"The girls had swarmed the unconscious body of Ari. Damien walked into their midst and raised one of his legs high into the air. He brought it down fiercely towards the stomach of Ari,"Do you want to kill him? What are you doing?"One of the ladies yelled. "Kill him? Don't be ridiculous. I'm just trying to bring back to life."The lady was very stunned by what Damien had said. She rushed to Damien and pushed him out of the way, but he was too stron
"Take a walk down this road. You would see a cut in the corner. He is somewhere there."An old lady said to Ayisha. "Thank you very much for your time."Ayisha walked away after appreciating the woman. She walked down the road and saw a cut as she had been directed. She had hardly taken the cut when she saw a man seated on the floor, his back to a big garbage can. He was there seated in the open, his head dropped. He looked to be sleeping. "Oh shit."She cussed, standing there as she gazed at the man. She fanned her face with the back of her hand. "AM I really going to do this?"A sound came from the man. When the man lifted his head, there was sticky saliva dripping from his lips. Hanging down and reluctant to drop. "No. No. I can't do this."Ayish was very irritated by what she had seen. She turned and started to walk away. But then she halted. She recalled the promise that she had made to the rest of the group. "Why did I volunteer to do this? If I had an idea that he had tu
"Is that so?"Damien said over the speaker. "Yes, Young Master.""How much did she offer to pay?""20 million, Young Master."Damien was quiet for a while. He could hear some noise coming from the room where Ari had been laid. He was seated in the living room of the yacht. "Was that all she offered?"He didn't allow himself to be carried away but the distractions. "Uhmm... not really... I mean...""You are not trying to hold anything back from me, are you?""Do I have a death wish? Why would I ever want to do something like rhat?!"Damien pulled his phone away from his ear for a while. While the person over the speaker was trying to convince him, the man had unintentionally become so loud that the noise pierced his ear. "Then?""She offered her body. We had sex, Young Master.""Oh, is that so?""Yes.""Keep me posted then. I'm sure you know that she would not sit idle as soon as she finds out that you have led her to a dead end.""I'm forever ready, Young Master. I have your prot
The yacht came to a stop at the shore of the island. Damien was the first jumped off the yacht. "Mr Kevin, you should wait for me. I am responsible for your whereabouts, please. If the organisers realise that you are nowhere to be found, they would be quite displeased with me."Damien heard Ari call at him, but that wasn't his brother at the moment. There were a lot of things going through his mind as he stood and gazed. The island was no longer what it used to be. He clutched his hand to his chest as he his legs trembled. He was going to fall on his knees, but he did all he could to hold his body up. There were no trees in sight. Not even coconut trees. Not even one. "How could they do this?"He muttered, watching in great shock. Long ago, before he crashlanded on the island with the nine BMX girls, they had landed on an inhabited island. An island clothed in greenery and beautiful sight. But now, all that was left of the island were uncompleted constructions and workers doing
