Nathan Montgomery Rise To Riches Chapter 78
“You know what? Say whatever you want, Pedro. It won’t change the fact that I am Sebastian Ulmer’s only true heir and soon-to-be chairman of Ulmer’s holding global. One thing is sure, once I take over, you will have no place in any of my company. Better keep that in mind. Sebastian is old and dying, and before he does, I would have taken over, I will make the decisions then and you won’t benefit from anything,”Nathan warned him and meant every word he said. He got to Pedro who frowned deeply. Nathan turned and walked away without a backward glance even when Pedro continued talking and shouting after him. When he entered his office, everyone suddenly went silent. He knew they had been talking about him but he didn’t give them any audience, he just walked straight to his table and sat down, opened his laptop, and went straight to work on what he had left behind a couple of days ago. He worked in silence until it was time to attend a team meeting. He waited until everyone else had left

Even though he said he would be meeting with Sebastian, Nathan changed his mind and instead just went home after work. What he did do after he got back home was call the older man who picked up almost immediately as if he had been waiting for his call. “Son, how have you been?”He asked. Nathan still couldn’t get used to the fact that he was really Sebastian’s son. He had no one to go to for answers. He still didn’t know how his birth mom and dad fell off. How they even met in the first place because clearly, they were worlds apart. “I am calling to let you know that I am doing fine,”He told him. “That’s good to know, when can I see you, son? You just left that day and I haven’t seen you since then,”Sebastian asked. “Yeah, I know. I had some things to sort out. when I am good, I will come see you,”Nathan told him. There was a moment of silence and then an audible sigh from Sebastian before he spoke again. “Okay, take your time. I will be here when you are ready,”He hung up t

Nathan still stayed four whole days away before he finally decided to go see Sebastian in his mansion. He called him that morning that he would be coming over and asked him to be the one to tell his director that Nathan would not be at the office. Seb had agreed without hesitating. “It is so good to finally see you after more than a week of waiting, I am sure you will have questions,”Sebastian said when Nathan walked in. The old man looked like he aged a lot in the last couple of days. He was seated in his living room. He was right about him having lots of questions because he sure did. “Good morning, sir,”Nathan greeted as he didn’t forget his manners. “Good morning, son, I was so happy when you called earlier that you would be coming to see me.”He said and gestured for Nathan to take a seat which he did. There was silence in the room. Nathan had a lot in mind but he didn’t know the first thing to say or the first question to ask. He hated the feeling so much and Sebastian must

“Don’t expect me to take your side just because you tried. You can’t blame my mom. She promised her sister that she would take care of me and she was only keeping that promise. My mom didn’t do anything wrong.”Nathan said in his mom's defense. She may have made some decisions that might not sit right with him but in his eyes, she could do no wrong. She did her best to raise him on her own. Never once made him feel like he wasn’t her child. Heck, she did so well that he didn’t even for once think about something like that. “I am sorry that I failed you son. I am sorry that I waited till I was this weak and useless before I found you again. I am sorry for not believing you and for having doubts when the evidence was all in front of me. Please find a place in your heart to forgive this dying old man,”He pleaded. “I don’t hold a grudge against you. I thought I did but once I entered the room and saw you, I realized that I didn’t. I just feel sad for myself and for everything I had to g

“That’s good to know, I just wanted to be sure but I am glad you have finally seen through him enough to know that he would ruin everything you worked hard for if you ever make the mistake of making him the heir,”“I have no plans of making my cousin the heir, if I did would I have wanted to find my son? Would I have had my wife’s now ex-wife’s name on my will? He was never a choice,”Sebastian revealed. The mention of Gianni made him remember he hadn’t spoken to her in days now. He was not mad at her anymore, maybe it was time to call her so that they would have that talk and sort things out. “That’s news to me,”Nathan said. “I know. Don’t worry, Pedro will never be a competition for you. You are my son, my flesh and blood.” Nathan nodded in understanding. “The only competition that you might have had was Gianni but I know that won’t happen since you both are a team,”Sebastian said. Nathan wanted to tell him that he and Gianni were no longer a team after he found out how she ha
Nathan Montgomery Rise To Riches Chapter 83
Nathan decided to call Gianni when he got back home but she must have blocked his contact or something because it refused to connect. After multiple tries, he gave up and instead went to look for her on the internet. He found her IG and messaged her there and hoped that she would respond. If not, he would have to travel to Italy just to speak to her. something he should have done from the beginning. He felt stupid for not listening to her and letting her explain why she didn’t tell him. Wait, she did tell him why. He just didn’t believe her. He treated her the same way Sebastian had treated her and thinking about it, he would understand if she decided to completely cut him off. Heck, he told her he would never speak to her again.“I should just leave her alone,”He said to himself. He decided that if she didn’t respond to the messages that he left her he would really let her be. not for long though because going by what Sebastian had said, he would still be needing Gianni and the last

“Nathan, good to see you are here,”His team leader said which drew all attention to him. Nathan slightly bowed in greeting. “As I already sent you all, a team member will be moving to another department today and like we always do, we will send him off and give him our blessing. In this case, though. He is someone really important to the future of this company. Our beloved chairman’s son who has been with us for the past few weeks. Even though his stay with us had been short, we can’t deny that he did a wonderful job,”His team leader said and to his surprise, everyone clapped. Knowing that most of them badmouthed him when they thought he wasn’t listening made it even more shocking and kind of funny. He wished the team leader didn’t do everything so dramatically. “Thank you,”Nathan said after the clapping subsided. He didn’t know what else to say. He knew everyone was looking at him and could almost feel the envy in the air. He couldn’t blame them because he would have felt the sa

“Ahh, Nathan, what did you do?”He cussed at himself. Gianni didn’t deserve the way he treated her and on top of that, she was going through divorcing his dad and he never once thought of how everything would have been like for her. She might not have had romantic feelings for Sebastian but she definitely loved the old man. If she didn’t love him, she wouldn’t have stayed with him or gone out of her way to find his son. “Well, at least I have something in common with my dad, why does it have to be hurting Gia?”He lamented. His phone buzzed and he checked.“Dad,”He said when he took the call. “You have been shown to your new office, right? How do you like your office? If there is anything you don’t like in there, you can request for it to be changed. The office is huge but a little old fashion,”He was right about the office being a little old-fashioned but Nathan didn’t mind. He wasn’t in the office for the aesthetic. He was more interested in working and pushing the company highe

“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
