Oliver Lane: The Rise Of A Young Master

CHAPTER 6

This got Oliver very terrified, he couldn't speak anymore because he fears he might anger them more than he already had and they could do something far worse than punching him in the stomach. Also the fear of the unknown gripped him because he has no idea what awaits him, anyways, he didn't have to ponder for long because the vehicle finally arrived at it's destination.

As soon as the car halted, he was dragged outside with the hood still covering his head, so he couldn't see where he was or who is in front of him.

He was forcefully thrown down and when the hood was removed only then did he notice he was in the very place he shouldn't be, the very place he dreaded the most.

The headquarters of Mafia Roland the most feared man in all of New Orleans, Louisiana. He was not someone a normal person would go to for assistance or have dealings with, talk more of getting on his bad side or owing him money.

But due to desperation people fall into such traps and they hardly ever pay back which would lead to their demise, and such was Oliver's plight at the moment, he didn't think much of the consequences or perhaps he did but was too focused on getting the money to save the life of his now ex girlfriend.

Just then Nick walked out first paving way for his boss to come out. And a man looking all scary with a cigarette in his mouth walked out of the inner room, sat down and asked his men to bring the criminal forward with just the tips of his finger, he didn't have to say a word. His men understood immediately and pulled Oliver roughly towards him.

"Mr Oliver Lane, how wonderful it is to have you here? Where is my money?" Mafia Roland himself asked.

It turns out Nick has explained everything to him and he wanted to see who was smart or maybe dumb enough to want to double cross him.

"I am working on it, sir." Oliver said his hands shaky due to fear and anxiety of the unknown.

"Working on it... you think you are so smart don't you?" Nick asked looking at the victim disgustingly.

"No... no I am not smart at all sir." Oliver quickly said

"How could you manage to fool my men? You collected such a huge amount of money from me and mortgaged your property to me and when I went to claim it I saw a sign post saying pay up and I was certain my men didn't do that, so I dug into the situation and found something quite interesting." Roland said with a smirk

"That was not my intention at all, I was just so desperate I am so sorry." Oliver replied

"Desperate, to do what? Save a whore with my hard earned money? Serves you right, she left you." Roland said with a smirk

His goons laughed heartily at this, they just couldn't hide it anymore including Albert Cole his friend.

"You fooled me and your girlfriend the one you are so intent on saving, fooled you. Life is one hell of a bitch don't you think so Mr Oliver Lane?" Roland said smiling

Oliver nodded

"Ha ha ha..." Mafia Roland and his men laughed again making jest of him.

He of course knew he deserved every bit of those words.

"You know I used to think Karma is farfetched but seeing you now, I believe it's real..."

Mafia Roland made fun of Oliver for a long time, he just kept rambling on for like what seemed like forever causing Oliver to be even more scared with each passing minutes.

Oliver knew his life was about to come to an end, because there is no way he would come up with any amount of money that would be enough to cover up his debts to this fearful Mafia Lord in front of him.

He began praying inside and telling whoever cares to listen to forgive him for his sins since he was about to be sent to the after life.

"So Oliver you feel like you can outsmart and scam me off my hard earned money?" Roland asked yet again.

"I would never dare to do that to you sir." Oliver said fearfully

"Okay good then maybe you can explain this then."

Ronald's right hand man Nick placed an envelope in front of Oliver.

He opened it and he knew that this was the documents he had brought the first day he asked for money from them. The documents to his house which was the only property he had.

"We know about everything, how you also gave the bank the documents of your house and used it to still ask for money from us... so there is no use denying it." Nick said

"I am so sorry." Oliver said

"You've got guts, I will give you that, because I for one have never met someone who would boldly and deliberately want to double cross me like you have." Mafia Roland said

"I..."

"So does this mean that you won't be able to pay back your debt?" Mafia Ronald asked

"I already found a well paying job and I will pay." Oliver said

Mafia Roland gave orders to his men to beat Oliver to stupor so as to make sure he pays.

And just like they were ordered they had no mercy on the body of the young man, he began to regret the decisions he had made and after much beatings he was asked

"Where is the money to pay up your debts?"

"I...*spits out blood* don't have it yet, please spare me, I will pay you back to the last... cent just give me some more time, I will pay." He managed to say.

Mafia Roland got so upset hearing that, he has dealt with a lot of people who has owed him money and were unable to pay back, so this situation wasn't something new neither was it going to be an exception.

He then made up his mind that he was being too lenient with him and that it was time he recovered his money back. So he was going to do what he always does to those who owes him with no means of payment and that was killing them off and selling their vital organs to those who would pay millions just to get their hands on them.

"Okay boys, it's time to end this charade... kill him and package his lungs we have a buyer." Mafia Ronald said.

Oliver knew then that no miracle was going to happen, no one was coming to his aid. This was it, the day he will cease to exist, and now, he was going to die for love, a love that was not reciprocated or valued.

"No...no... please."

He was gagged so he would stop screaming out so loud, just his eyes were wide opened.

He could hear the sound of chainsaw rotating loudly, he then closed his eyes waiting for the worst to happen.

At that time, he lost all hope and even the will power to fight back.

Just when the chainsaw got close to his neck and about to cut through his flesh the door to the room flung open and a group of men in black ran into the room and circled all of Mafia Ronald's men...

This gesture startled everyone except Mafia Roland who was never afraid of anything.

All of them pointed their guns at each other, each feeling threatened by one another's presence.

Just then footsteps of someone could be heard, an old vibrant man with some white strands of hair at both sides of his head walked in holding a walking cane, looking around he saw the young man on the ground about to be butchered and said boldly,

"Let him go, I will pay and cover his debt for him."
