The Hart's did not come to play. They wanted to torment his life with shame. The crowd gazed in utter quietness, like they were expecting a formal introduction from him while Louis kept looking around for Zick. He had seen Gavin and Veronica who couldn't wait to welcome him with true intentions.

“Do you mind closing the door? It's rainy outside and kinda ruining the vibe around here” a guest at the party stated, breaking the silence

Louis glared at the guest, standing at the door wide open, waiting for anyone who had the guts to push him off. After what he had been through to make it here, he wasn't going to take horsecrap from a random stranger who was a pawn in his family's stupidity. Zick came out of the shadow, wearing a devious smile on his face, he walked up to where Gavin was and stopped, saying no words but letting his ego do the talking.

Some of the guests finally removed their attention from Louis and interacted with themselves, while some still gazed at him to get any rea

    “You purposely want to get on my nerves, Louis, and I don't know why,” Selena said, loosening her grip on her husband's hands. The situation was getting heated and she was getting ready to lose her cool.“Ohh, I'm not getting on anyone's nerves. I'm just not used to the pretense I'm seeing. You guys are normally rude when addressing me; why the fake act?” Louis said, raising his voice for everyone to hear him.“Just shut up! I'm tired of your stupid behavior” Gavin yelled. He rushed to defend his mother. From the way he stormed towards Louis, he could feel Gavin was gonna pounce on him, so he knuckled his fist in preparation.“And if I don't. What are you going to do?” Louis lashed back at him when Zick stopped him from causing a fight.“You are a failure. You hear me, Louis. You are a failure who can't do anything without us” Veronica rained abuse on Louis. She hated the way Louis talked to them and she retaliated in any way she could. The only person who stayed calm was Kent because

    Questions spread through the air as Zick hurriedly ran forward to catch the envelope. Selena gasped in fear for her life, thinking that Louis was about to bring out a gun and threaten them; he looked very menacing at the moment.Zick caught the envelope and refused to open it, His heart beating fast with trepidation. What was in the envelope? And why did he have a certain look of doom upon him? These questions raced Zick's mind as his hate for Louis intensified. He couldn't figure out what the envelope contained with just a bare touch, so he fought with his curiosity to open it.“What is it?” Veronica asked as they gathered around Zick with troubled faces; only Hank and his wife, Selena, remained calm without any emotions visible on their faces.“Damn it! Just open the envelope” Gavin blurted out, thrusting his hands at Zick to grab the envelope.“Don't frickin' rush me and keep your hands to yourself” Zick warned Gavin with a stern gaze at him “If you can't open it, then hand it ove

    “What are you waiting for? Go ahead and do what I asked you” Selena yelled, hitting the guard at the shoulder. The bodyguard salivated nervously because that wasn't his job, and he looked scared to pick a fight with Louis, who exuded a deadly aura from his stare alone.“I'm sorry ma'am, I can't…”The slap on his face stopped him from completing his statement. He remained stunned for at least three seconds from the burning sensation of the slap.“Will you obey me now?” she thundered. “What are you still waiting for?”The man had not fully recovered from the first hit on his face before she launched two successive slaps to his face, panting speedily at him. She pointed at Louis and yelled for her guard to spring into action. The man exhaled angrily, he looked at Gavin and turned to Louis, huffing loudly as their eyes met his. He took a step forward, clenching his fist in anger.Meanwhile, Louis stood straight, ready for action; he did not move a step back in fear. The guard came closer

    Louis felt the cold wind of the rain sweep off the warmth from his skin, causing shivers to run down his spine. He stood close to the door, his left hand still on the doorknob and his right hand clutching his pocket to feel his license. After a few seconds, he huffed and let go of the knob, taking two steps forward and stopping to wait for his driver, who was running to the car, to drive closer to him.A thought flashed through his mind concerning his bodyguard's entrance, which he did not expect. He left with only one bodyguard, and somehow, the three he left found their way to him.“How did you guys meet up with me,” he asked the guard on his right-hand side.“We stood by your car, but the umbrellas were just not strong enough to shield us from the rain. Luckily we met a man who recognized your car and offered us a ride to meet up with you. I called your driver to describe your location,” Louis asked about the mystery man but they couldn't recall his name or physical features, so t

    “Stand down! Stand down, let him speak” Louis quickly commanded. He rushed in to help the innocent man from the ground. “I'm really sorry, they were only doing their job” Louis apologized as he tried dusting the hoard of sands from his body. Even his face was covered in dust.“Damn it! They did not have to go so hard on me. The way they pounced on me felt very painful” the man complained. It was futile dusting the sand away from his body because of how soaked he was, he could only hiss in disappointment and grumble out words. The man gestured to Louis to stop trying to dust the dirt off because he was only going to spread it. Louis obeyed and felt willing to thank him for avoiding commotion even if it meant losing his job.“Nah, it's okay. I was getting sick of the inhumane treatment already. I just needed something to make me confident about quitting, and luckily, it was you,” the man said, stopping Louis from apologizing further.“I still feel like I cost you your job, it must have

    His driver honked at him, a futile gesture to compel him to hop in. He could not wait to take Louis home and have a rest after an almost fatal journey. The impatience was vivid in his forced smile that widened awkwardly.Louis snapped out of his thoughts and opened the door but waited a few minutes before he entered. "I have to get to the roots of this," Louis muttered. He nodded his head and glanced at the shed, which was now empty, as people who were trapped in the rain rushed to their various places. " Something is going on and I have to find out before they bury it deep into the ground" He decided not to block Kent's number; he had a subtle plan of using him as a channel to extract information. Though Kent often joined his family in the awful things they did to him, he was easily manipulated and was easily frightened at little threats sent his way. That was the quality he could use to his advantage. Louis archived his number and deleted the unsaved number that Zick and Veronica u

    “I want information on my family,” Louis revealed in a low and uncertain voice. Her attitude toward him made his senses tingle, but he assumed it was a natural feeling around private investigators. She looked the part of an investigator and her subtle appearance convinced him she was the real deal.“Your family?” She laughed quietly.”That's a classic. Most of my clients always have an issue with their family or their wives. It's pretty common” “Mine's different. I need to know what they are hiding” Louis replied. He placed his arms on the table and reduced his voice to a whisper.“I don't think you want to know the shady part of your family. That is the advice I always tell the curious clients I always encounter” She sounded like she was trying to scare him off, a feeble attempt by the woman for Louis to validate her method. The austere expression on her face felt forced, and for some reason, she kept fixing her eyes in his shoes.“If I don't, then why the hell would I want to meet

    She quickly pulled her arms out of Louis' tight grip and launched her purse straight to his face before she ran out of the bar, screaming cuss words at him. Her departure brought attention to Louis, as all eyes faced him to see his next reaction. He was kept at a crossroads of choices of chasing after the con woman or tending to the text message he received from the investigator.“You are lucky, you caught on to her game before she played you out of your money. Most people only realize when she's miles away with their money in Nevada” A man echoed, which made Louis turn his neck after a loud sigh.It was the tattered-looking man who kept peering his neck in Louis' direction. He spoke at the top of his voice like he was merry for seeing Louis and he had a wide grin on his face. He walked closer to Louis, swinging his arms jovially.“I'm pretty sure she'd be looking for her next target to dupe,” the man said after getting close to Louis. His breath reeked of stale alcohol, it was so unp

    If Chris was going to be thrown out with nothing, it would have been better for him, but the worst was yet to come. As he got closer to the door, the sound of a police siren rang aloud in his ears.It was time for him to spend his old age in prison. “No, let me go. I'm too rich to go to jail,” Chris struggled, letting out a devastated cry “Please somebody stop them,” he begged, but it was too late to ask for sympathy.“It can't end this way, please. I'll die the first second I get to jail. They'll kill me. Do you know the number of people waiting for me there,” Chris continued, screaming his lungs out.The people laughed as Chris was escorted to the police. His screams fell short in Louis' ear and Mrs Kimberly couldn't bear but feel satisfied at the fate that Chris was met with.“Finally, I get to see him pay for all the crimes he did to me and others alike ,” She said with teary eyes. “Karma really took her time to take a jab at him,” “I won't lie, it sure does look good to see him

    Everyone's attention shifted to the center of the hall. They gaped around as their heart panicked Who was going to be eliminated next? Who was going to win the game? Worst, what would happen to those who stood the test of time till the finals of the competition? Were they going to be compensated or left with nothing while they celebrated the victor? These questions were audible in their head. They couldn't find an answer as to what was going to happen next. “It's time for the results,” Chris shouted, acting like he had gone crazy. “If you stupid panel members have any ounce of respect left for me, you'd make it right and call me the winner,” He brushed past everyone and stood at the center of the hall, beating his chest with force “I made this game what it is today, very competitive. I deserve some credits for lasting long in this competition,”In a feat of rage, he forcefully grabbed a member of his secret league by the collar and dragged him to the center.“Look at all these peo

    “It's all Raul's fault. I was afraid to tell you but I have gathered up courage to tell you the truth,” Jessica continued.She got very close to him and placed her left hand on his shoulder with a seductive eye staring right at him.“You know how I used to make you happy, how I made you feel like a man and brave enough to strive for success,” She placed her finger on her lips and winked at him “I can do that again. I can make you happy again. Let's both forget about what Raul destroyed and make peace again,”Louis gave her cold look, threatening her to remove her hand from his shoulder but she latched on like a seat back on an airplane.“Get your filthy hands off me before I do it myself and trust me, you are not going to like it,” Louis threatened.“Come on Louis,” She said, placing her right hand on his other shoulder like she wanted to embrace him. “Try to understand me, Raul is our enemy and we must join hands to eliminate….”A muscular guard picked up Jessica from her waist away

    “Low Props, Master,” Queen uttered, knowing Louis was lost in his thoughts.“What's happening to it?” Louis asked, a tad bit disinterested on the topic.“Hello,” she waved her hands. “You just revealed you are the CEO of Twin Tower company, of course Low Props' hotline is going to be buzzing with calls,” she said.Louis nodded and raised a brow at her statement. “What's that got to do with me?” He asked.Queen exhaled loudly, trying to hold back her surprised expression “You told me you'd want to go to Low Props after your reveal,” She said, her tone loud and assertive.“Oh… that. Well, there's a change of plans. I got something better to do,” Louis stated, looking at his watch “The college will send a notification anytime soon and I'd like to be present,”Queen ruffled her hair and adjusted her skirt while looking down at her feet “How do you know that? I don't think it will be safe enough to go there at this moment,” she raised her head and pointed to a replay of Louis' reveal ”The

    “Hello sir, twelve branches of your company have been shut down globally,” his secretary reported through a phone call. She was too scared to meet with her boss physically.Chris, with a heavy sigh, ended the call in depression. He decided to stay at home and wail in his sudden downfall. Most of the few remaining members of the secret league had quit their membership in the league, all in the aim of cutting off any relationship with Chris.The fake leader he had hired to act as the leader of the secret league was nowhere to be seen. He was just a few hours from hitting rock bottom while his name was being trash talked throughout the globe. “At this point I might as well give up the ghost, coz I have nothing left to fight for,” Chris wept silently. He stayed in his house for hours doing nothing but cry and stare into the abyss of emptiness.At the strike of twelve, his phone beeped with the notification of a Livestream from the world's biggest news channel. They claimed to have a big

    “You tricked me, you bastard,” Chris yelled, punching his table in anger.“No, I outsmarted you,” Louis continued laughing, unfazed by the tremor in Chris' voice “What were you thinking I was going to do? Sit by and watch you drown me in problems,” he said in a sarcastic tone.“You worthless fool, better watch your back because I promise, you will pay for this,” Chris replied.Louis put his phone on loudspeaker and placed it on top of his table. He then proceeded to cross his arms and snicker at the weak threat Chris made towards him.“I wonder if you have paid for the crimes you have committed,” Louis calmly said “You know, the ones you do behind the scenes and pay people to cover it up,”Chris gnashed his teeth and looked at his watch. With a gruff and rushed voice, he yelled “What do you mean by that? Do you have any evidence against me, you stupid fool?” “Chill, chill. I got time for you okay.” Louis said in a scornful voice. He ruffled his hair and exhaled lightly “The bribes yo

    The headline wasn't celebratory nor was it informative; It was a blasphemy to Chris. What he saw on his television screen made him stand up from his cushion and gasp in fright.“CHRIS, A FALSE HERO TO SOCIETY IS EXPOSED FOR THE TYRANT HE IS AND ALWAYS WAS,” The headline read along with the ugliest reporter Chris had ever thrown words at in his sitting room.He walked closer to his television, feeling threatened by the news they aired.“What is wrong with these people, have they forgotten who I am,” Chris blurted out with his hands on his head. He began breathing heavily as he felt the urge to hold the reporter by her throat and strangle the life out of her. His chest became bloated with held back emotions of the news. He wasn't trying to find out why they labeled him as a tyrant but was bent on making the editor pay for picking a fight with him.The crimes he had committed behind the curtains without justice giving him a piece of her blades had left him feeling too big to be called o

    The next thing Chris was greeted with after a day's work was a lawsuit, perfectly laid on his table and waiting to draw his attention. As Chris slipped into his office to catch a break from plotting nonstop about his final plan to end Louis, he saw it lying on his table.There it was looking at him and he in turn was staring at it. He drew close to his chair, his chest slowly pounding as he managed to sit. He dropped his walking cane on the floor and placed his hands on the table, trying to calm his disrupted nerves from causing a rampage.“My secretary didn't tell me there was mail for me,” he said, touching the envelope with a finger which he quickly withdrew after the envelope moved from the force of his hands.“It's light, what could it be,” he muttered. He tried to call his secretary but hesitated, thinking it was too trivial of a situation to yell at her.With a swift move of his right palm, he grabbed the envelope and ripped the seal off. As he brought out the document his eyes

    Chris made a dubious smirk as he strolled towards Louis' direction. His face turned menacing as he smiled callously with a glare but that was ineffective to a boiling Louis.“I am tempted to believe you are following me,” Chris continued. “Coz, why am I seeing you in such an awful state,” He laughed in scorn.“You are really senile to think I'm in an awful position,” Louis fired back.“With those rusty, tired face of yours, of course it safe to say that we have been giving you more than you can handle,” Chris instantly replied with a sneer. “How's your teammates? I heard they were terminated,” He laughed and cleaned the tip of his walking cane “That's a gift from the league, I hope they liked it?”“You old fool,” Louis flared up and rushed to attack him.“Please by all means, punch me, hit me. I need it right now, that would be a fast way to claim my victory,” Chris hollered with a smirk.Those words were truthful enough to chain Louis in a spot while his chest pounded heavily. A sli
