Nathan decided to take the rest of the weekend off and spend time with his sisters since it had been a while since he last had a one-on-one talk with them, he got to know the little things they have been up to, Nora told him about her upcoming activities in school and he promised her that he would be there, Nelly, on the other hand, was just glowing and was all smile, recounting how the mean girls in her class were now trying to be her friend now that she was richer than them. They talked about watching him on the TV and he felt so much pride when they told him they were proud of him.

He called Gianni to find out how Sebastian was doing and she told him he was recovering well, he wanted to go see him again but he didn’t want to old man to ask him questions that he couldn’t give answers to since Gianni said they shouldn’t talk about what happened while he was in coma with him just yet, he hoped they could talk about it soon as he didn’t want Pedro to be the first to tell the old man w

    Sebastian was so tired of sitting on his hospital bed doing nothing but letting time pass, he knew even though he was awake now and the doctors saying that he was recovering, he did not have much to live; He didn’t want to live the rest of his short life just being hospitalized but Rekha has refused to let him have what he wanted, it was like the young woman was keeping him here and away from the outside world to shield him, like he was some child. “Crazy woman,”He mocked. She left a while ago after nagging him for hours when he told her he would like to be discharged. He had a lot that he needed to put in place before he finally leaves the land of the living. He knew that day was closer than the doctors were saying and has long accepted that. Now that his son was finally found, all he needed to do was do right by him and give him an inheritance that would be huge enough and make up for the struggle that he went through growing up just because his mom and her sister decided to be st

    “Nothing happened, they just ganged up against me, everything was going smoothly and then, they woke up one morning and decided to call a meeting, it was your will so I had to respect it,”His will was used against him by the people he thought would have his back. He couldn’t believe Rekha of all people would do that to him. “What nonsense, how could they, they never spoke a word to me either,”he let out. “Maybe because they expected you to go back to coma, maybe they don’t want you to know, they didn’t even report that you were up and okay, the only reason I found out was that I came to get my tooth fixed and saw your doctor who told me you were awake, they are doing everything to keep you silent,”Pedro let on. It made sense; why else would they have kept everything away from him and also, why would the public not be made aware that he was awake, he was sure his coma would have affected the company’s stock and every other thing and the news of his return would have set all doubt

    “I will let you rest, just know that I am always here to help and all you have to do is call for me,”He nodded and Pedro walked out. He closed his eyes and went over what he had talked about with Pedro. He couldn’t believe so much happened while he was away for such a short period. What would happen once he was dead? Would the two of them divide everything he owned between themselves while mocking him? He just couldn’t believe Rekha had the mind to do such a thing to him after everything he did for her. She walked in at that moment, he opened his eyes and just seeing her smile made him mad, how could she smile like that to him after everything she did behind his back, she was one deceitful woman who had the best poker face to hide behind. “Why are you frowning? Did you miss me?”She asked; coming to hug him on the bed. He wanted to push her away but he resisted; what had he been thinking, why else would a young woman like her marry him, he deluded himself into thinking she was doing

    “Whatever Pedro told you; I don’t care what he said, all you need to know is that he made those things up and he is trying to get us against each other, you better not believe him,”Gianni let out. “I didn’t ask you to explain, I want to see the young man, call him,” Gianni glared at the old man, this was the first time that she was genuinely mad at him ever since they got married, the fact that he believed she and Nathan were having an affair so blindly, just shows he has little or no trust for her whereas she trusted him. She couldn’t believe she has lived in constant fear that he might not make it and now that he was back, instead of being grateful for what they did for him, he was listening to Pedro of all people, that fucker that didn’t even wait for him to pass before he started running down his company, Gianni was damn sure he made up other lies to cover up the reason he was thrown out of the company. “Just call Nathan and stop looking so angry, you can just say nothing is h

    Nathan looked to where his phone was kept, he wasn’t expecting to get a call from Gianni since it was Saturday, he expected to rest. Seb was still at the hospital and she was spending all her time with him. He took the call. “Nathan, Seb wants to see you,”Gianni's voice echoed over the phone, she sounded very pissed. “What’s going on?”He asked, already on his feet. “You will have to find out by yourself when you come around, meanwhile, the old man is talking a whole lot of nonsense so you might want to brace yourself,”She answered. He didn’t like how she sounded and the fact that she wasn’t telling him what happened straight up didn’t help either. “I am on my way,”He answered and the call ended. He was alone as his sisters both went out with their friends, he went upstairs to his room to change, still wondering what would have made Gianni pissed and why she said to brace himself, did he somehow find out what happened? Even if he did, he had no reason to be mad at them, if anyt

    “So, are you finally going to tell me what kind of relationship you have with my wife?” Sebastian asked when it was just the two of them, Nathan stared at him in confusion wondering why he would even think he had any other kind of relationship with Gianni, it was just so not what he expected Seb to be worried about but apparently, that’s what he wanted to know. “I already told you what kind of relationship we have, I don’t know what else you want me to say,” Nathan responded firmly. “I have proof that you both are intimate,”Nathan stared at him, maybe the old man wasn’t okay yet, maybe something messed with his head because what kind of evidence would he possibly have to prove that he and Gianni had an intimate relationship? Nathan wanted to laugh in his face and call him a joker but the old man looked too damn serious for it to be a joke. “I want to see the proof,”Nathan told him and watched as the old man brought his phone out, typed a few things, and then passed his phone to

    “Oh, this is about occupying your office? That’s the damage I have done? I thought you were going to state all the wrong business decisions that I have made but I bet you have none because the person you took his words from is the same person whose mess I was trying to clean up, I might be a novice but one thing is sure, I do my best and you can ask the people you employed because they can all testify that I did a pretty good job for a supposed novice,”Nathan fired at him. “I don’t care right now, all I want is for you to stay away from my company, I own the company and I make all the decisions pertaining to my company,”Sebastian responded. Nathan decided that there was no point in still engaging the old man, he already picked a side and nothing he was going to say would make him change his mind. “Right, it is your company, do whatever you want with it, I am out of here,”Nathan said the parting words and walked out of the room without a backward glance, he wanted to look for Gian

    The next day was a Sunday but that didn’t stop Nathan from making a money move, he took his bath to help freshen his mood, had breakfast with his sisters, and went back to his room, he needed to speak with someone, so he got out his phone and dialed the number of a legal representative that he had spoken to before, he waited for the man to take his call. He got his contact when he met him a couple of weeks ago, at that time, he didn’t think he would need a legal representative soon but now he did and he was thankful he did. Now all he needed was for him to take his call so that they could arrange to meet as he didn’t want to do anything without first having legal backing. “Hello? This is Marcus speaking, who am I on to?”The man asked over the phone. Nathan almost thought he wouldn’t take the call because it was the weekend. “HI, my name is Nathan, we spoke about a week or two ago and I told you that I would reach out to you once I am ready,” Nathan disclosed. “Yeah, Nathan, I rem

    “I had to trap you,”“Yeah and now I don’t fit in any of my clothes,”She lamented.“That’s why you have mine. Plus, your mom was super proud of me,”“Why won’t she? When you helped her fulfill her biggest wish. They are arriving tomorrow. My brothers are going to give you a piece of their mind,”Nathan pretended to shake in fear but he had no fear. His brother-in-laws were cool people and they treated him nicely. In fact, he recently signed a deal with her oldest brother. “They like me too much to scold me.”He reminded her. She rolled her eyes. “Are you coming with me or do you still want to be locked up here? You have been here all day,”She lamented. “I am done now. And by Monday, I will finish the last job I have to do and you will finally have me to yourself,”He assured her. “I wish. Next week is going to be very busy for us. We have the wedding rehearsals and other things. I don’t think we will have time for each other until after our wedding. I am having a bridal shower,

    “Nathan, calm down. it’s just speculations right now and I am pretty sure if they are taking him to the mental hospital, he would still not be released,”Nathan honestly hoped that it was just speculation. Pedro was a terrible person who doesn’t deserve a second chance because if that fucker was given a second, third, and fourth chance, he would still do the same thing. He was rotten beyond repair. “I hope they don’t try to free him because that would not go well for any of them,”Nathan let out. Every other person that has wronged him was already paying for their crimes. Trent, Dylan, Dan, and all of Dylan’s men. Pedro won’t be any different because he did some many wrong shits. “Aren’t you supposed to meet with Alec today?”Gianni asked. Yeah, he was supposed to meet with Alec to discuss plans for the new resort in Greece but he said that his oldest daughter had the flu so he couldn’t make it. “We postponed. Callista has the flu,”He informed her. “Oh, poor child. I hope she get

    “My brothers found out because Luna informed them that she saw something. They came and saw me crying during my engagement ceremony. He hit me that night and there were bruises on my arms. I had to tell them and they took action immediately,”She revealed. Nathan had so much respect for her brothers. They couldn’t be at the ceremony today but they sent their best regards.“Juan hacked into his system and deleted everything. I couldn’t believe I was finally free after two whole years of living in fear that if I did anything wrong he might expose me. In Venice, having your sex tape leaked could ruin both you and your whole family’s reputation,”Nathan knew how bad it could get. That was one of the things Dylan used against his victims.“Please tell me he went to jail,”“Sadly, no, I didn’t report what happened as I didn’t want to expose myself and my family to that kind of attention. I locked myself away and Luna was the few people who made sure I was okay, I met your dad shortly after

    The event started immediately and Nathan followed through as the various directors gave different speeches and a live band performed and soon, the Vice President took the podium. Nathan knew he was next. He thought he would still feel nervous but he got over it when his name was called. He stood up with his head held high. The whole hall erupted in loud clapping when he walked to the podium and stood in front of the mic. He smiled. “Hello, good evening, ladies and gentlemen. Thank you for honoring the invitation and honoring me tonight. My name is Nathan Montgomery Ulmer. The chairman of Ulmer’s Holdings and the founder of Kay Royal Hotels.”He introduced. A lot of people didn’t know him as the founder of the new chains of hotels that have been making headlines lately and he saw the shock in their eyes. “I know, I know. a lot of people are not aware yet but I actually founded the Kay Royal Hotels a couple of months ago. The hotels though already in business will be officially launch

    “Are you ready? There are a lot of reporters outside the venue and we have to walk the red carpet,”Gianni reminded him when their car came to a stop in front of the venue that they were using for the ceremony. It was one of Ulmer’s Event centers. The biggest event center in the city. The same event center that Pedro had almost sold to Dylan as part of his payment for the favors he did for him. Nathan pushed the thought of the criminals out of his mind and focused on the present.“Yes, I am ready.”He told Gianni as their car door was opened and the flashes of cameras almost blinded him. He got out of the car and helped her out. He didn’t let go of her and together they walked the red carpet. Waving at reporters. They stood for a few media photos before they walked into the main auditorium.There were no interviews because they made sure to inform the reporters who would be present that they weren’t granting any.The auditorium was already packed full when they walked in.“Our seat is

    “Mr. Chairman? Mr. Chairman? How are you feeling today and what have you been up to recently?”Nathan laughed when Nelly placed a mic in front of him when he got down the stairs. She had a new interest. She no longer wanted to be a doctor or an actress. She wanted to be a reporter and she has been going at it all week. Waiting for him to show up and then asking him questions. He liked the session too so he made sure to answer her questions each time.“Hmm, I haven’t been up to much, recently but today is my inauguration ceremony, that’s all for today.”Nathan said with a smile. It has been a month since Sebastian made the announcement and everything after that had been good for him. Pedro was arrested the same night. When Nathan woke up the day after the attack, the news of Pedro’s arrest had been everywhere. Even the news about his attempt to get everything from Sebastian by kidnapping him was also revealed. Sebastian said he gave the go-ahead for the news to be published. As expec

    “Hey, ladies,”Nathan greeted them when he walked into the movie room.“Shush! We are trying to watch a movie,”Nora scolded him. he placed his hand over his mouth and quietly went to sit with Gianni who smiled at him. he spent the last hour speaking to the police because they had a few questions for him. he even offered to go to the police station if they wanted but they said there was no need for that. He answered all the questions. Retelling everything that Pedro had told him on the phone. Including when he had admitted to being the one who punished his father down the stairs. Thankfully, Nathan had their conversation recorded so he sent the recording to the police. He was reassured that Pedro would be arrested soon. Nathan focused on the movie his sisters were watching. “Hey, how is your dad?”Gianni whispered beside him.“He is fine. He went to bed early because of the stress of today and I am now the chairman,”He announced proudly and watched her eyes widen in shock.“That’s

    Sebastian answered a few questions that the reporters had most of which were about what Pedro had said in the interview he did a few weeks ago. Sebastian answered the questions and debunked everything that wasn’t true. Concerning the Dylan issue, Sebastian told the reporters that it had nothing to do with him as he didn’t consider Pedro one of his own anymore. He was also asked if he would try to save Pedro’s company or buy him out and to that Sebastian had answered that he had no interest in doing any of that but his son might have interest and they could hear it from him directly or wait to find out after the purchase has been completed. Nathan laughed when Sebastian looked his way and whispered “Help” Nathan took that as his cue to take over the meeting. He took the mic from his dad and smiled at the cameras. “MY old man has had enough. If you guys have any other questions. You can ask me. Thank you to everyone who made time to be here for this meeting and to those who are watch

    “You are fighting a lost battle and you know it. you keep doing more shit and locking yourself further into the dark room. There is no saving you and honestly, I don’t want to. Just know the only reason you got to this point was because Sebastian still saw you as family and wanted to give you as much chance as possible but not anymore,”Nathan told him. not like he expected Pedro to listen to him. if he was going to listen, he would have stopped the minute he found out the DNA test proved that Nathan was indeed an Ulmer. There was no stopping and this time, he was going to jail. “Everything would have been okay if you didn’t come into the picture. I made a mistake. It should have been that bitch. I should have picked her instead and finished her off. By then I won’t have anything to lose. She was the reason you came into the picture. Don’t fucking think this is over. It will never be over until I get what rightful belongs to me,”Pedro promised and before Nathan could say anything el
