Hello readers. I'm sure some of you are already wondering who this woman is. They'll meet again soon and Cade will be in trouble. Keep reading!
Cade and Gale got to the hotel again and paid for another night."We're scheduled for eight in the morning," Gale informed Cade after booking the flight as requested. "Perfect."“I still think we can use the private jet without attracting attention. Everyone knows that I travelled here, they’ll assume that I used the jet to return. I’m just not comfortable with you sharing a plane with others. You’ve never been on a commercial plane, not even in first class. You’ve been using private jets since you were a child, this feels wrong.” Gale said.“Don’t be so worried, Gale.” Cade chuckled at the man’s concerns.“It’s just one flight. I won’t turn into a pile of dust just because I use a commercial flight. In fact, when I went on vacations with my ex wife’s family, we always travelled first class. The old man might have been a millionaire, enough to live comfortably but not enough to afford a private jet.”“That was different. You lost your memory then so you forgot all the luxury you grew
Cade woke up with the feeling of excitement pounding through his chest. Today, he would be leaving for his own city, his own place. It was a few minutes past seven, and the drive from the hotel to the airport was a thirty minute duration. Gale had already been up an hour before Cade, making some last minute arrangements like where Cade would stay when they landed and who would come pick them up as well, before their trip would even commence. For now, since he wanted to keep a low profile, he couldn’t stay at his old penthouse. Maybe after he had revealed himself once more, he would stay at his old place. His mother had kept paying the rent on the place even when he was gone because she always believed her son would come back. She refused to believe that her only child was truly dead. She also hired cleaners to keep the place spotless and laundry services for Cade's clothes so they wouldn’t be affected and remain in good condition for his return, even though she knew they may be out o
"A girl? seriously?" Cade laughed. "It was just a guess." Gale shrugged."You just started smiling all of a sudden and that was all I could think of at the moment. So why are you so happy?""Well, because after four years I'm going home today. And I will see my mother. After four years of being treated like trash, I can move around with my head high because I'm not a nobody. Just imagine the look on their faces when they see me again. They will be shocked to their marrow.""That's a beautiful reason to be happy. I'm happy for you, too," Gale smiled now as he understood the reason for Cade’s smile."I have you to be grateful to. How could I have come back if I didn't have you by my side?""I'm happy I found you too, sir." He smiled. After some moments of walking in silence, Gale got a call from Clint, the friend who was supposed to pick them up, and was directed to where the man was parked. He left Cade under the shade and walked further from the building to meet Clint.Clint was so
“I’m not taking you to the Milton mansion yet. I was able to get a new penthouse apartment for you to stay in for now. You can only visit your mother, staying with her may attract attention and reveal your return before time. Even visiting her is a risk, but I know you can’t return without informing her.” Gale said and Cade sighed.“I hate that those people messed with my life to the point that I have to hide like a criminal to visit my mother in the home I grew up in. But you’re right. It’s better to be safe than sorry. let’s go to the apartment first.”Clint's car stopped right in front of the building with Cade's new apartment. There was a private underground parking garage for residents, which they drove into, and an elevator from there direct to the top floor of the building where the penthouse was. This way, total privacy was guaranteed, unless you happen to bump into a fellow tenant in the garage.He was proud of Gale for having to get things in place just before his arrival. G
“Your room here is still untouched, even your penthouse, I made sure everything remained the way you kept them so you would be okay when you returned. Have you been there?” His mother asked.“Not yet. Gale and I don’t want anyone to know that I’m back yet. If someone suddenly starts living in my old penthouse, even with a disguise, they’ll suspect that it’s really me.”“No, I won’t accept that. My son is finally back to me. Why should you hide when they’re the ones who tried to kill you? You should show them that we’re not afraid of them. I can accept you waiting before pressing charges against them because you’re right, we need more evidence before we can send them to jail. But my son is back, I want the whole world to know it. To see that I'm no longer childless.” She said and he cupped her cheek.“I understand where you’re coming from, Mum. I know you have my best interest at heart. But you should also understand me. I’ve been away for years. I need to gather more information on al
Cade sat in his living room after returning to his penthouse later that night, remembering all that went on over at his mom's. She had cried when he was about to leave and though it broke his heart, he just couldn't ruin their plans by staying with her. He still felt heavy after consuming so much food at his mother's place so he couldn't sleep. Instead he decided to check out his game room. Playing alone without any rival was quite boring, but staying up and doing nothing was even more boring. He didn't have any more work left because he had gone over all the first set of documents with Gale before now. The solitude made him wish he could have stayed the night with his mother.After some attempts at actually having fun with the game, he gave up and went up into his room. He lay down on the bed and decided to watch a romcom that his mother had told him about earlier. A series she had watched and was excited about. He hoped that watching it would make him drowsy enough to sleep since he
Cade looked at the cheque again. He could not believe his eyes. But the cheque had not been cashed either, and that was why the slip was still here. Cade went through the file again, hoping to find something else that would make him understand the context of everything, but all he could see were work records. There wasn’t anything else that would be incriminating enough to be considered evidence against Alex. He could not bring himself to look at the work records properly because of how surprised he was to see the cheque. He kept the papers well arranged, and just as Gale had given it to him, and closed the envelope. The cheque had made him more interested in Mr Robert's death than he had initially been. He made a call to Gale. "Tell his wife that the company would sponsor the investigation of her husband's death. Inform the board, too." Cade said to Gale over the phone. Gale was silent, then he said yes and Cade disconnected the call. In his car on his way home, Gale wondered why
Gale arrived later in the day at Cade's call. He was hours late, and apologized as soon as he met Cade. "I'm really sorry, I was quite busy at work today. You know, Mr Robert and the whole situation? I had to inform the board of your decision to sponsor the investigation but I made it seem like it was my idea so they won’t know of your return. I don’t really know who we can completely trust among them for now. I had to call in a meeting and when we convened, I told them that it would be best if we as the company sponsored the investigation since Mr Robert was a high standing worker in the Milton Conglomerate and it would look bad if we completely neglect him.""So did they agree?""Yes, after a lot of back and forths. It was really hectic, trying to convince a bunch of old men to take up the responsibility of something they were not really expecting to do. But overall, we came to an agreement. We would sponsor the investigation but only because Mr Robert was murdered on the company's
