RETURN OF THE TRILLIONAIRE: CAGE

SHOWTIME

"Are you sure you want to do this, Young Master?" Zo asked with a glance at Cage, who lay on his bed.

"Yes, Zo. I need to put them in their place." Cage stood up from the bed and walked into the bathroom.

Zo bowed and left the room. He had to prepare for his Young Master's announced arrival tomorrow. 

Cage came out of the bathroom. Tomorrow, he will make his arrival known in the company.

The following day arrived too quickly, but Cage had work to do.

Zo came to pick him up from the hotel room.

He escorted Cage to his car.

"Don't worry, Zo, I'll take the public bus. I want to check a few things out," Cage uttered with a small smile.

"Okay, sir," Zo said, climbing into the car.

Cage thought as he took a taxi to the Marines and Shares company.

It was a vast company with a magnificent front design and a large garden.

Cage smoothened his roughened shirt. He had gotten used to dressing in such a way, and he had forgotten to ask Zo to get a tailored dress for him.

"Who are you, please?" A lady blocked him the moment Cage stepped in.

She donned an exquisite suit that was made for her delicious body shape. 

"My name is Cage. I am…" 

"I don't care what your name is." The lady interrupted and frowned with disgust on her face.

"Who dragged this trash in here?" She raised her voice, alerting other employees, but they minded their business. 

"I'm not trash." Cage said with a tinge of frustration.

"Shut up. No one asked for your opinion. Get out of here before I call security." The lady was about to poke her finger into Cage's eyes.

"Respect yourself, lady. I want to…," Cage tried to speak. 

The lady turned her back to him.

"Hello, Security, I need you here. There is a worthless scum in here, and he is trying to harass me." The lady blatantly said.

Cage's eyes widened when he heard her words. She was lying against him.

Security appeared almost immediately after the lady dropped the call and surrounded Cage.

"That's him. Throw him out." The lady cried out with fake emotions.

One guard was about to lay his hand on Cage when he flew backward, clutching his nose.

"What happened?" The guards were confused.

"Did you see anything?" 

"Yeah, this strange man punched him." Someone replied from somewhere else.

"This weakling?"

"I'm telling you what I saw. Don't ask me for trash." That someone replied harshly.

The lady couldn't believe such a weak man would have such strength.

She was about to say something when a man with glasses stepped in. 

"Master Cage, are you okay?" The man hurriedly rushed to Cage's side and smoothened his dress.

Cage frowned at the physical contact, and the man drew back.

"I am so sorry, sir. Were you faced with any problem?" The man stuttered, looking at the guards that had gathered.

"This lady here accused me of harassment." Cage said in a stern voice.

Before Cage could speak any further, the man in glasses turned around and slapped the lady, causing her to fall to the ground.

"Thank the gods that Master Cage even harassed you." The man in glasses said.

"I didn't." Cage chirped in with annoyance. 

"Manager Cheng. This man is a loser." The lady cried out, holding her cheek. 

"Shut up, you fool. This is the new CEO of the company. You are fired. I would have lost my job now because of your stupid act." Lin An Cheng snapped in a fury.

He turned to the guards loitering about.

"You piece of scum! Get this witch out of here." Lin An barked in anger. His face was almost red.

Cage turned his face away from the spectacle, and he spotted Zo. 

He made his way over, and Zo bowed to him.

"Welcome. I hope you had no trouble here." Zo, who had just stepped in, asked.

"No trouble." Cage smiled.

Zo escorted him to his new office, and he sat in his seat.

"Get the employees ready for the news, and I want to meet with my secretary," Cole ordered softly.

He had a plan: he would ruin the Williams family, and he would bring Daryl to his knees.

Zo returned from his errand with a lady behind him.

Cage stared at her. She was the epitome of beauty.

She looked like a goddess that had stepped down from heaven, but Cage showed no emotions.

She could compare with Carmen, but he didn't want to think much.

"Her name is Lily, your new secretary," Zo said.

"Thank you, Zo. You can leave us," Cage muttered.

Zo bowed and left.

"Welcome, Lily. My new secretary? You were just hired?" Cage quirked a brow.

"No, Sir, they promoted me. The former secretary was just sacked." Lily spoke. Her voice could bring men to their knees, but Cage was a god among men.

"Okay. Our goal is to be at the top of the business world. Marines and shares are at the tenth position, but we can climb higher. I want us to move to the car industry."

Cage spat out his plan in one go.

Lily frowned.

"Sir, it would be too sudden, and we know nothing about car production." Lily retorted.

"I know. We would merge with a car company and a technology company. I plan to give out free cars." Cage's eyes sparkled as he spoke.

Lily almost coughed out blood. She was about to bark a word when Cage held up his hand.

A message on his phone drew his attention 

"Hold your thoughts. I do not need them. Please find me a good car company. I have an issue to attend to." Cage stood up and walked out of the office.

He went down to the last floor of the building to see Zo waiting for him.

"Young Master, I thought you didn't want to show this side of you?" Zo questioned with wide eyes.

"I have no choice. It's an emergency. She is my best friend and her grandfather is dying." Cage moved with the cold air around him.

He was going to see her for the first time.

"Ok, young Master." Zo knew he had no say in this. He would never convince Cage once his mind was made up 

They arrived at the hotel. 

Zo drove off to park the car, and Cage went in. 

"Hey, stop there." A guard held out his hand, stopping Cage.

However, Cage wasn't in the mood. If he didn't arrive, there would be more trouble.

"I said, stop." The guard frowned. He didn't know what was wrong with this man.

Cage gripped the man's hand and twisted it. He threw the hefty man over his body and walked into the building.

The guard was embarrassed and angry. He called for backup.

Cage entered the elevator, not knowing that a group of security guards were hot on his tail.

He stepped out of the elevator, and he saw someone clothed in white.

"Cage!" the girl in white cried out and rushed to hug him immediately. Her eyes were wet with tears.

The guards rushing up the stairs stopped when they saw the scene.

"Is that Miss Chloe?" A guard said.

"No. Miss Chloe can't be associated with such filth. Let's go." The guard snarled.

Chloe let go of Cage and dragged him with her.

"Thank you, Cage, for coming. I called everyone, but they couldn't help him. The doctor said he had ten hours to live," Chloe sobbed silently.

Cage's eyes softened as he stared at her.

"I'll do my best." He smiled at her, and they walked into the patient's room together.

"I said no one should walk in." A man in a lab coat waved his hands frantically.

"Hold it, doctor, you said you can't help my father. I brought someone else." Chloe's face was pink with frustration.

"This man? Look at him! He has no qualifications." The young doctor couldn't believe his eyes.

"Let him be. I trusted the ones with qualifications, and they did nothing." Chloe glared at the doctor.

The doctor bit back his words.

Cage took his seat beside the older man.

The grandfather had turned ghostly pale, with cuts on his lips. The skin on his face had dried up. Cage did some palpitations before he concluded. 

"There's poison in your grandfather's system." Cage turned his face to Chloe.

"Humph. You just guessed it right this time. I can see through your pretense." The doctor exclaimed immediately.

Chloe shot him a glance, and he kept quiet.

"Would you be able to do something?" Chloe asked. She didn't want the only person who cared for her to die.

"I'd need pieces of charcoal and some honey. I'd also like some garlic cloves." Cage responded.

"What bullshit is this?! Do you plan to cook the grandfather?" An annoyed voice cried out.
