Revenge Of The Rejected Heir Chapter 21. Go On A Date With Me
Chapter Twenty One; Go On A Date With Me.When Lucas opened his eyes again, it was already the next morning.As soon as he woke up, he felt a pang of headache, it was as if someone was pounding his head with a giant hammer.He had spent most of the night awake thinking back to the phone call he had with that Geraldine of a lady.After talking with his mom in the evening and finally sending her off on her way back to the Baron residence, Lucas went back to his room to get some rest but he couldn’t.His mind kept going back to the strip club he went together with James and his countenance dropped. He remembered how much he had to suffer to look for that man called Elio, really, it is not a common luxury to be able to meet the rich and powerful especially when you are starting off as a nobody.As he thought about it, his mind inadvertently went to the waitress who deliberately poured a drink on his body and then later shoved her phone number in his hands.He had kept it safe in his poc

Chapter Twenty Two; Opportunity comes once, grab it. Lucas then dialled James’ number and invited him to his room.It was more like a summon because the tone Lucas used was enough to tell him that something was wrong somewhere.James sprinted to Lucas' room thinking that something terrible had happened to him, but when he reached there, he only saw Lucas pacing back and forth in the room.“Sir, What happened? You called for me.” James asked in between pants.“Yes, take a seat” Lucas said, then he told him about his personal attempt to find means of netting Elio Galileo went, including all the scammers calls that he got.And finally, he told him about Geraldine’s request just now.“Isn’t it absurd James? Don’t you think this lady is up to something?”He was hoping that James would also find it weird and join him in talking about how ridiculous it was for her to make such demands.But to his greatest surprise, James had a different reaction and a much worse answer than what he had expe

Revenge Of The Rejected Heir Chapter 24. I Will Juggle The Two Simultaneously.
Chapter Twenty Four; I Will Juggle The Two Simultaneously.Because the restaurant the mother and son went to was not very far from the house where Lucas stays, he just had to hug for half an hour and he was already seeing the gates of the house.He went home and went straight to the mini gym in the house and did some cardio exercises and lifted some weights.Only when he was sweating profusely, his body hot and exhausted did he let go of the exercise and went back to his room to freshen up.After taking a long bath, he put on fresh clothes and went to sit at the table where he had left his phone and laptop on earlier.He picked up his phone and saw that there were a few missed calls and a message already waiting for him.One of the calls was from Geraldine while two of them were from his mother.

Chapter Twenty Five; Quest For Mentorship. ‘We’ve already decided at six pm and six pm it must be, I really can’t shift the time up again’.When Lucas read this message, his resolve to be able to juggle the two events shattered, it wouldn’t be possible for him to be at the hotel and also be at the Baron residence at the same time.He would have to think of something else to do to be able to cover the two events.Lucas immediately imputed the address of the Hotel she had sent to him on his laptop and found out that it was located in the greener part of the state.The ‘greener part’ is just a phrase commonly used by the citizens of the state to describe the best part of the state where the rich and luxurious were located. Lucas was slightly surprised that the hotel that Geraldine reserved for them was located in such a fancy place.‘Wow, she must be super rich to be able to afford such a place’ he thought since she was just a mere waitress at the club James took them to.He also could

Chapter Twenty Six; Getting Ready.Lucas was still lost in his thoughts when his phone started vibrating beside him.But he had already dozed off from reality and didn’t feel the vibrations coming from his phone on the table until he heard a light knock on his door and he came back to reality.“Who’s there?” He replied casually looking towards the door even though it was closed. “It’s James” the Butler introduced himself and waited for permission first before he entered.“Oh come on in then” Lucas casually beckoned on him to enter the room and then refocused his attention on the book in front of him when his phone vibrated again.This time, he felt the vibration and picked up his phone to see a reminder written on the screen of the phone “Oh no!” He moved restlessly on his seat , then he stood up and immediately ran out of the room.But he came back immediately because he realized that he should be entering the bathroom not going out of his room.At that time, James was still standi

Chapter Twenty Seven; A Reservation Problem.He picked up his phone and checked in the display screen to check what the time was and to his surprise, it was just twenty minutes past four. So it had taken him twenty minutes to take a shower and dress up like this.“Not bad Lucas!” He praised himself as a satisfied grin spread across his face.He went to switch off his lap top and cover the book he was using before, after neatly stacking them in a good position, he left his room and headed to the living room.James was already waiting for him with a bouquet of flowers in his hand, there was a begonias flower.These sets of flowers are usually given to family members or friends as a way of saying thank you, symbolising gratitude, uniqueness and at times caution.James was trying to communicate to Lucas with the flower as a way of showing his appreciation to his family, but Lucas is not one to understand the meaning of flowers.So when James told him to give it to his family when he rea

Chapter Thirty Five; Judging Her.There was a moment of silence on the other side of the phone.For a minute, Geraldine did nit belive what he was saying.Then a loud laughter sounded from Geraldine’s side. “Like hell I’ll believe you?” She definitely did not believe that he was that eager to eat dinner with her.It would be very strange if he would decide to come up to two hours earlier than their orignaiallu planned date.Was he that eager to eat with her or was he that eager to hear about how he could meet Galileo?But then she suddenly remembered that he had requested that she move the dinner to four o’clock but she had refused.Didn’t he see her message before coming so early like this? She clearly said they’d be there by six.“No Geraldine, I am serious, by the way what is your surname?”That question caught the young lady off guard. Why was he asking about her surname? Did he try to do any investigation about her?If that was the case, then she would be very disappointed in hi
