It was already late now. Cade decided within himself to go to the bank the next day. He wouldn’t be able to access all of his money just yet until he got back home, but what he could access would be enough for what he planned to do. Gale offered to let Cade sleep in with him in his room at another hotel where he stayed for this trip. It was the least he could do at this moment. He knew that if roles were reversed, Cade would help him, and that Cade was going to take his rightful place soon. As for Cade, he could not wait until morning when he could do what he had in mind. He was lucky to have remembered some of his account details as well, so recovering his account would be no big deal. He was also going to use his influence. He knew that an ordinary person could not recover an account after several years without observing some protocols, but he was sure that immediately he mentioned who he was, he would not have to go through all that. As he lay on Gale's bed, he heaved a sigh of re
Gale was beyond shocked as he heard what his boss said. He knew that Cade was pissed off at the way they dared to treat him when he was the Milton Conglomerate heir, but he never expected Cade to retaliate like this. Spending so much money for revenge, because definitely, the hotel won’t be sold cheaply even if it wasn’t a five star place. The ride was then silent till they got to the hotel, mostly because Gale was still processing everything. The hotel was filled with people loitering around, some of them booking new rooms, some of the others checking out, and a few just going in and out of the hotel. It was unlike the one where he and Gale had slept the night that was more classy and refined. This one was really busy. Cade went to the bored looking receptionist, it was the same one who talked to him rudely last time. The receptionist was another indication of just how trashy this place was, the man was busy looking at his phone while he was on duty."What do you want?" The recepti
“It sounds like a threat to me, Mr Dennis, if I remember your name correctly.” The manager said again with more boldness as his courage returned. “My name is not Dennis.” Cade said but he didn’t say his real name because he didn’t want to draw attention to himself before he rightfully took his place at his company. Who knows if the people that tried to kill him before had spies waiting to see if he would emerge somewhere. "Mr... whatever your name is, please I don't want you in my office anymore. I already told you that I won’t sell the place. I’ll have to call security to take you out of here." The man said, trying to pick up his phone, but Gale immediately placed his hand on the man's own to stop him. "Why, if I may ask? Why don't you want to sell the place? You are already running it badly." Cade said. Gale's hand was still on the manager's own. "My father built this hotel and handed it down to me as an inheritance before he died. Selling it would mean giving up on his efforts
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
