Lucian got to the police station and was taken to the questioning room with his wrists still handcuffed.
He was pushed down to take a seat, and an officer took a seat in front of him with a long slim table separating them.
“What happened? Why did you run away from the crime scene? Was it intentional?”
Lucian just stared at him for some minutes before proceeding to talk
“It was not intentional. It was a hit and run, not intentional” Lucian said, trying to defend himself for the crime he did not commit.
The police officer just kept pressing his laptop without glancing at Lucian. He spent thirty minutes in the questioning room before another cop came in.
“Let me see,” the second cop beckoned to the first cop. They left to see each other and after a few minutes, the first cop came back and uncuffed Lucian.
“Lucky you, the victim's family have agreed to a settlement,”
Lucian's eyes widened, “Kelsea kept her promise but I never expected it to be this fast,” He thought as he stood up.
Lucian stepped out of the questioning room twisting his wrist then headed outside the police station.
He trekked home, and after two hours he arrived home.
Lucian faced the Mansion, he entered the gate and was welcomed with loud noises of music and celebration.
“Is Kelsea celebrating our anniversary without me?? She couldn't possibly do that when she knew it was because of her I went to the police station” He muttered to himself as he made his way inside.
Lucian opened the entrance door and walked inside the living room, as the living room had decorations, different colours of light and banging music playing giving the vibe of a club, or a party.
It was as if an intruder had come in, everywhere became silent, and everyone in the living room threw an irritated look. Lucian is good looking but his poor nature chases people away from him.
The people whispered and murmured loudly, enough for him to hear not caring to know if the words would hurt him, they didn't bother that he could hear them but instead continued their hurtful words and hateful glares.
It was a surprising thing to Lucian because ever since he got married to Kelsea, he had always received hurtful words several times so he was used to it
He scanned the room, and could not find Kelsea. He saw Ella staring at him as she gulped down some liquor.
“Worthlessness in-law,” Ella mumbled and he read her lips and got what she said despite the noise
Lucian glanced around one more time hoping to see Kelsea but did not see her. He went upstairs to his room, the room he shared with Kelsea when he received the shock of his life.
His wife was getting screwed by another man on their bed. Lucian's eyes widened.
“Kelsea!!”
She stopped riding him and then got off his body as she covered her naked thigh with the long gown she wore.
“How come you are back so fast? Who released you? Did you run away??”
Lucian felt like screaming. His wife is in bed with another man on their wedding anniversary night. He almost went to jail for her, and the best she could do was to cheat on him when he was alive.
Was he truly thrown to the police intentionally, because it was barely a day before she organised a party and brought a man into the house?
“Kelsea, I thought you hate parties, why are you throwing a party for our anniversary?” He asked and Kelsea rolled her eyes.
“I don't hate parties. And can't you see that someone who knows my value threw a party for me? Or are you blind now?" She asked and Lucian furrowed his brows.
“ Someone who knows your value? So you're saying I don't know your value because I couldn't throw a party for you? Were you, not the one that told me that you hate parties, you even brought him into the bedroom, don't you fear the oath we shared on the altar?” He asked and Kelsea sneered.
“Are you now this gullible? Lucian, If you knew my value, why didn't you throw a party for our anniversary despite when I said I hate parties, I don't think I ever said that to you. And bringing a man to the bedroom is none of your business, are you not ashamed you married me to take me out of the market and yet, I still live in my father's house? You could not afford a common house. Marrying you is my biggest mistake” Kelsea humped in annoyance and Lucian sighed. He knew where she was heading, and he was trying hard to avoid that conversation because it might end up in an argument.
“Who's he?? And please tell him to leave ” He stated, and Kelsea chuckled sarcastically.
“He should leave because you are the owner of the house, why are stupid??? Do you know who he is?? His name alone can buy your entire generation, and crumble it down like a piece of cake”
“I know, who the hell is he??” He said. He's angry about the fact that he was deceived and betrayed. His dear wife cheated on him without feeling remorseful, and she has the guts to let a man who's not her husband throw a wedding anniversary party for him, she lied to him that she hates parties to have that chance to hurl insults at him, making him run wild.
"Melvin Banks,” Kelsea said and Melvin, who had been on the bed all this while, stood up from the bed, and Lucian glared at him with pure hatred on his face. So the man who threw a party for his wife still dares to touch her sexually.
From his clothes, Lucian could tell that he was a billionaire.
Was he showing off his wealth? Or was he trying to steal his wife away from him?
“ Why would you throw a party for our anniversary, who are you to do that for her?” Lucian asked, facing him as he clenched his fists so tight that his knuckles turned white out of anger.
“ At least he is better than you who have nothing to offer” Kelsea muttered, but Lucian heard what she said, and he couldn't believe his ear.
“ What! I have nothing to offer. After everything I have done for you Kelsea, you still have the guts to say that I have nothing to offer? I went to the police station for your sake, I took action for something I did not do, for a crime I did not commit and you promised that when I come back, there will be love. I guess that was a deceit also” Lucian erupted angrily like a beast.
“ You're a loser, Lucian, Your wife is now mine” Melvin smirked, speaking for the first time since the beginning of the confrontation.
Lucian angrily punched him, he locked his shirt and began to punch him again before Kelsea came in between separating them.
Melvin already bled from his nose and lips.
“Stop it, Lucian !” Kelsea shouted, and Lucian felt like punching him over and over till he collapsed.
“Don't worry, I will divorce you. Enough of all this maltreatment. I'm hurt, and tired. I can't take it anymore,” Lucian lamented poorly.
“Divorce?? Do you think you can survive on the street without our assistance, without my wealth??? Lucian you are going to crawl back to me begging me to take you in again, mark my words, I'm not joking” Kelsea declared.
“It's not too late for you to get on your knees and apologise to me,” Melvin stated, and Lucian angrily left the house.
He got outside, on the street and his phone chimed. He checked it to see an alert of billions.
Before he processed anything, he heard a female voice. “Young Master”
He got outside, on the street and his phone chimed. He checked it to see an alert of billions.Before he processed anything, he heard a female voice. “Young Master”Lucian tilted his neck to the voice direction and saw a young woman staring at him.“Young Master, have you seen the alert?” Lucian looked at the young lady standing in front of him, looking surprised.“Did you hack my phone?? How did you know that I received an alert?” Lucian questioned, and the young Lady just bowed slightly“The $50 billion is just for you to do shopping”“ $50 billion to get new stuff?” Lucian exclaimed in total shock, and the young lady nodded, maintaining a straight face, not smiling.“ Yes, young master. This is just the tip of an iceberg, you have a lot of properties and wealth that you are not aware of.” The young lady said and started walking towards a black car.“Young master, can we go,” “To where?” Lucian questioned.“To your house, one of the houses you own. Like I said, you have a lot of p
Lucian's hands ran through the outlines of the documents as the trickle of perspiration went down his spine.“But why did you hide this from me all this while leaving me to suffer the torrent of this world?" He could not help but inquire as the thoughts stormed through his mind multiple times but an explanation of it still refused to get into his head.His eyes seemed to be searching deep through her, seeking an answer and knowing that he was going to get it pretty soon, he was relaxed. “Because of the way your father died.“ She replied. But as much as he tried to think about it, he still could not get a grasp on what she was trying to talk about.“I'm confused. Can you enlighten me? What has my father's death got to do in all of this?“ He replied swiftly, his hands running through the last details of the documents as he returned them to the table that lay before him.Lucian's heart was racing fast as though it was going to pop from his chest as he continued to stare at her, waiting
“You are here to get a meal?“ Sia could not help but laugh out loud clutching hard to her stomach while his eyebrow farrowed.“Are you serious right now? You came here to get a meal? Can you stop being delusional already? “ She snapped swiftly, her facial expression washed with so much disgust.He stared at her closely without spitting out a single word from his mouth.He knew that she was trying as hard as she could to stare him up and his hands were clenched in an attempt to control his anger and maintain it all.“You should start telling us the actual reason that you are here already rather than telling me that you came to get a meal.If anyone is going to fall for that. Do you think that it could be me?“ I have known you for quite a while to know that your poverty can be equal to a stink from hell." Sia mocked him.“I told you already that I came here to get a meal. Stop being so hard already and get me what I want.“ He replied but at this point, all the patience in his head was
“It can't be possible. I have the history of this poor striker rubbish in my hands. There is no way that he could be a young master of anyone."They might have made a mistake.“ Sia assured herself, swearing under her breath that they had certainly made a huge mistake.Straightening up her shoulders, she advanced swiftly towards them while the attention of everyone was directed towards her.“And who are you?“ Sia was privileged enough for Sydney to speak to her, putting a swift smile on her face almost immediately.“I'm Sia. A dedicated employee of this company.““I just want to say that there are only two things possible in this situation. Either you have been fooled by Lucian or you must have made a mistake.“"He is no Young Master whatsoever and he is only hear to beg for free meals as he always does," Sia added hints of lies in the words that she spoke to spice things up.Sydney and Mr Kelvin's eyes farrowed almost immediately as they were speechless, not knowing what to say at th
“Okay, Young Master. Will get it done right away.“ An ever-loyal Sydney replied without asking further questions.Not because she was not curious but because she already knew too much about her young master's past and how he was treated by his wife and her family.Her hands were clenched with anger as she thought about what the richest man in the city had to go through in their hands."They deserve it," Sydney muttered under her breath with an air of hatred and disgust.Before the end of the day, she prepared the divorce agreement and presented it to him.Quite satisfied with her work, he appreciated her. The next morning, the only thing that he wanted to do was to get over that marriage as soon as he could.He took his bath, got dressed and had his meal after which he proceeded to their little Villa to get the work done as soon as he could “She doesn't deserve my love. I would have been behind bars now if Sydney had not come to my aid. Only to meet her on the bed with another man."
Taking the divorce papers away from him, Kelsea signed them without a second thought as her legs swayed gradually toward Melvin, kissing him right on the head.Without a second thought, Melvin fell to his knees and Lucian shot his eyes in surprise, confused at what was going on.As he watched, he brought out a ring from his pockets and drew it closer towards her as her face turned all red with a blush.“I have always meant to tell you this. I have always loved you but someone stood in the way.He stared at what was happening with so much disgust in his eyes."Will you marry me?" he asked "Yes. Yes." Kelsea's response was loud and dramatic, as though she wanted someone to hear it badly."I can't stand this," Lucian muttered under his breath.Making his way out of the little Villa, he could still hear Ella's voice bawling at him from behind but he ignored it.Getting outside, he continued to walk in his paths. Intending to see the secretary so that he would have some things with his co
"Young Master Lucian." Annabelle moved closer toward him, her eyes not daring to exchange contact with him as she shuddered."I'm sorry. It's all my fault." She was already shivering. "You can punish me in whatever way you please." She begged him but he only chuckled with his weak voice revealing how tired he was."I would prefer just Lucian without the titles. Can you do that?" He inquired staring right into her eyes.For a while, she could not believe the words that just proceeded out of his mouth.Her heart raced fast as though it was going to burst through."But she knew that whatever it was, she could not disobey her Young master."Yes, Young... I'm sorry Lucian." Her words broke into multiple stutters as she spoke."You should get up already." He helped her up.She could not believe the sight that lay before her as she tried to comprehend what was going on in her head."Could all of this be a trick?" She thought.When she heard that the son of the owner of the company who was th
Meanwhile, Melvin sat with Kelsea on the table as it was their custom.She stared at the phone contacts and noticed that it was her secretary."I told her to stop calling me when it's not work time." She frowned immediately, swapping left and replacing the phone with her purse after putting it on silent."Aren't you going to take your call?" Melvin, who watched the whole event unfold, inquired but she shook her head."It isn't important. Not as important as you are to me." He kissed her on her lips as they continued to chatSuddenly, Ella walked into the place with a troubled look hovering on her face, such that Kelsea had never seen beforeShe rose from the chair that she was sitting on swiftly still trying as hard as she could to make things out in her head."What's going on here?" She inquired, staring right into her eyes and waiting for a response. Instead, she placed her hands on her knees, trying as hard as she could to catch her breath."It's all over the news. Our company is g
