Everyone standing in the room was petrified right to the floor with shocks. The blood that ran through their vines seemingly to have been cloaked.

For the short while, their states remained blank, expressionless and astonished beyond reason.

Until eventually, Mrs. Annabelle's stance started swiftly with a shift towards Doctor Crad, forcing him a few inches back in his steps.

"A mentally unstable person. That's who you have gotten here to stop my son from enjoying appropriate health care facilities?

Instead of sending him to the asylum or sending him off to meet his maker as it should have been a long time ago?

I'm highly disappointed in you doctor!"

"Yes, me too!" The young boy chorused alongside his mother.

Doctor Crad tried speaking but his words had suddenly been tied to his tongue. A look at Crad and he was definitely assured that his patient was running mad.

When he was first brought over on the night of the accident, from the way that he was casually dressed, he was beyond stunned to be informed that Louis would be booked for the most expensive section of the hospital 

Doctor Crad had first thought that it was a mistake, trying his best to find out things as soon as possible

However it turned out that the booking was true, adding to his initial astonishment. Eventually, when the registration man and the payment name of the patient arrived, they turned out different.

It was evident that the patient wasn't the one that was footing the bills. The name of the payer sounded like some company.

So it had to be one of those companies trying to get the respect of the people by providing quality aid to poor members of the public.

However, seeing the strong aura that bore right from this man through the room. Doctor Crad was shaken.

His anger slipped right through his squeezed hands as his steps thundered right towards Louis like he was about to be ripped apart.

"Have you gone out of your mind?" His yells had already brought out a few workers, hanging around at the door

"What do you think that you're doing? If you think that your life is no longer of value to you, do you have to drag everyone alongside yourself?" The fine lines of his rage were shattered all over his face, his eyes boring right through Louis.

"Trying to help you of course!"

The Doctor could see, written all over Louis's eyes, that nothing could be done. He spinned at Madam Annabelle, his hands clasped as he pleaded.

However his pleas fell on deaf ears.

Without much hesitation, Louis brought out his cell phone from his pockets, placing a call to his assistant.

"Hello Queen! I got into a little bit of a problem and I was wondering if you could help me out!" Louis noted softly.

"Certainly sir! Just give me the details and I will get to it right away!" Added Queen.

"Oh! Thanks very much. You're one in a million. You see, the chairperson's wife, by name Mrs. Annabelle is here advocating for me to be chased out of the hospital for her sick son! Do you think that you could do anything about it?

I don't think I'm fine enough to get him out of this place!" Louis let out a light cough.

With a quivering heart, Louis could not easily tell if he heard a growl from the other end of the phone or something else.

The pause that came was suddenly broken as he noted.

"I will get everything resolved right away, Sir. Louis. You don't have to worry!" She replied 

"Thanks very much!"

The end of the call when met with a burst of laughter ripping right through the air as Mrs. Annabelle's hands were still clenched to her aching stomach.

They had been watching him while he was involved in the lotto melodrama of his.

"What's this technique called? Reverse psychology? You feel that I would be so scared that I would be forced to chicken away? In your dreams?" Replied Lady Annabelle.

"What even makes you think that you know anyone that's as powerful as my husband's pieces of trash.

That alone is an insult to my personality. You seem young and would make like a son to me so I am going to give you this one simple advice.

The more you open that trash ridden mouth of yours to speak? You are only going to compound your problem in the process. So I would advise you to keep shut and wait for your punishment!"

Louis brows instantly farrowed. Like he had received so deep revelation as his eyes lighted up.

For the split moments, Annabelle thought that she had won over him until eventually, Louis stepped closer from the bed, their eyes interlocking into each other.

"I really wish that I could follow your advice. But you see, you cannot get close to being my mother. I don't do pigeons!" He replied.

The words got Doctor Crad's hands lying over his hands at the moment with astonishment.

Even Mrs. Annabelle was taken back in her steps at the moment. The words blew down her guts that she could barely breathe.

"You! You! How dare you!" The growl sipped through her guts.

"You're going to... No, let my husband come!" She remained speechless.

The anger that was rising through her guts barely made her able to breathe.

However, the soundless engine of a car that zoomed with urgency into the building caused her to finally release all the air that had been gathered in her guts with a warm smile..

"There he is!" Her face lightened up with a smile.

"Daddy! Daddy!" The child held on to her mother's clothes, scaling in the sky happily. The same child that was at the brick of death.

"Well down Sheldon! You're sick now. Let's not forget that right?"

"Right!" Returned Sheldon also immediately, the smile on his face threatening to tear off his face that was already hurting quite badly.

Doctor Crad had multiple cold chills running down his spine at the instant. His heart was shaking.

He could barely breathe, his legs wobbling like jelly on the floor.

Doctor Crad's knees crashed right into the floor once again, his pounding heart threatening to tear off from his chest.

"Pls!" He pleaded.

"Do you need me telling you once more!" It's already too late. Her face was morphined with disdain, her lips twisted with delight at his suffering. There could be no better source of entertainment for her.

"If you had done as I had said earlier, none of this would be happening. It's called Karma!"

The last words in her sentence forced a scuff out of the lips of Louis.

"Karma you say? You hold such powerful statues in the state. Shouldn't that translate immediately that you're well informed?

Or I just thought so! Cause Karma? You would really make good use of a dictionary!" Louis still taunted her for the hate of her guts.

She growled, however did nothing to return these words to him. Soon enough, the punisher would be here and she would get full justice for all the harm that had been done to her.. Thought Madam Annabelle.

And just like the walls could read the thoughts that echoed through her mind. The door suddenly flew open.

The advent of a man in his early fifties, a little bit old for the blooming blood lady as a few gray hairs already grew in the midst of his white hair.

Lord Kelly had his face coated with sweat. His lungs raced in futile attempts that he had used to run off to this place. Forgetting the usage of the elevator and using the stairs instead.

"What's going on here?" The hushed inquiry suddenly came off his lips.

Though a smile tried forcing itself off from Mrs. Annabelle's face, she kept it hidden underneath her serous gaze embroidered with a deep layer of pain and exhalation.

"That fool!" He pointed to Louis lying comfortably on the bed as though nothing was happening.

The fit of rage forced her hands into a sharp shiver.

"And him too!" Her anger forced her to shift her gaze away from Louis over to the doctor who shuddered like a little baby.

"They restricted us from having medical treatment. Even though we came first before that fellow, the doctor spoke to us rudely.

Because he doesn't like your ideology, he decided to take it out on us instead. Kel. You have to do something about this! Give us justice kel!"

The doctor felt his heart instantly dropping to the bottom of his feet. With these allegations, it would only take the good Lord for him to come out of this alive

"It's all over!" He let out an exhausted breath.

Meanwhile, Louis's eyes brightened at her words. He was beyond stunned, his face glazed with astonishment.

"Wow! Now I see where your talent lies! Lying!"

Sheldon immediately rushed to his father, clutching to his legs while he wailed, cried and screamed in pain. The perfect actor.

"Dad! My head is tearing apart!" Tears flooded off from his eyes. He was the perfect actor.

"Then you should have taken him to another hospital already instead of causing so much noise!" Lord Kelly replied to his wife and son, for the first time, angrily

    "Yes sir. Louis. It's more like a league of companies. The companies in this region and the rest of the world have always sought to be more organized.However organization would never come without some sort of leadership. For this reason, a complex competition of companies was organized, to pick out the most powerful company and deserving too.That would not only be feared by the rest of the companies but also be treated with respect.And nobody could think of a way of coming up with something apart from this!" Queen explained while her head remained bowed all through."I and Mayor Sam have always been working towards this project and he has always been keen with anticipation!" Queen noted politely.Louis's head was forced into a nod multiple times. The sense in them was beyond anything that could be explained.The idea didn't sound too off to him. And if the mayor was so keen into getting into this, it could only mean that there was more to these that was being revealed to the major

    After Louis was discharged from the hospital because of his quick recovery, he sought to make the Mayor's wishes come true. Though he had not participated in the competition between companies before, his body could barely contain his subtle excitement to enter. Queen stood patiently outside the hospital, waiting for her new boss, Mr Louis. They had a lot to go through for Louis to understand his future arena before jumping in without caution. Louis briskly walked straight in her direction, his hands swinging automatically to match his footsteps. “Good morning sir,” Queen greeted with her head slightly bowed but also managing to stand straight.“Morning” “I have prepared your car to take you to the company. I figured you'd want to see it the moment you were discharged” Queen guessed right, for Louis wanted to go straight to business instead of wasting time celebrating his new feats.“Great, I also want detailed information about most of the companies participating in the competition

    “A different name?” she forced out a laugh“Yes, a different name,” Louis replied with certainty; in fact, he had never been more sure of anything in his life than this. He could sense her obvious doubt in his decision which she tried to cloak with a faint smile.“Do you have any problem with what I just said?” He stared at her blankly, giving her room to express herself a little bit.She jumped at the opportunity to spit out all her questions without wasting time. “How would others know we entered the game? This would be a first in history, if we do this, keep in mind that we definitely will be sabotaged and picked on?”She kept on asking without pausing for breath or answers. It seemed new to her and she worried that Louis might end up being the helpless boy they'd pick on without demanding respect.“Easy with the questions, I can only answer the most important, and trust me, I know what I'm doing,” Louis assured, using his hands to gesture that she should take a breath.She apologi

    Louis rolled his eyes around the building as he noticed that everyone was waiting for him to give his answers. He muttered a cuss word and clenched his fists behind his back. He was thrown off his feet by their desperation to set a class structure and put him in his place. The sudden calmness in the room made him feel uneasy to answer immediately.“What is this? We got another Mama's boy in our midst” A man echoed from a corner.Everybody bursted out laughing, and the building, which was dead silent, swiftly turned into a hall for the loudest cackle. Louis' heart sank to the floor while he felt the cold welcome of everyone sear his flesh away. He hissed at their childish behavior of making him feel worthless but he knew he wasn't at a place where he would be met with open hands and a warm embrace.Louis shook his head in disapproval and finally spoke up. “ If I wanted to go to a circus, I'd take a train. I don't know why you guys are laughing.” his eyes glared furiously at the people

    “Are you talking to me or seeking approval?” James asked rhetorically to piss him off “All these low-class humans, always thirsty for attention” James kept on, firing painful words“Get one thing straight: I'm not dying for your attention; you just keep on itching for drama.” Louis paused to swallow the words that were about to come out next. He shut his mouth and waited for the end of the meeting.“What happened? Cat got your tongue.” James kept making fun. “I thought you were about to flare up..”“Please, can we wait till the end of the meeting?” The old man pleaded with obvious dissatisfaction on his face.James held back on any scandalous comments he had on Louis. He couldn't wait for the meeting to end as he tapped his legs impatiently and stared coldly at Louis.Louis braced himself for what was about to come from James the second they stepped out. He sighed heavily and placed his hands on his forehead. “What's wrong with me? Why am I acting timid around him? Maybe I should str

    James rushed over taking huge steps towards him. He flung his arms carelessly, making sure to attract the attention of everybody. Louis shook his head in frustration and disapproval before looking away, hoping James would back off.It didn't work. James steadily advanced closer with a wry smile glued to his face. His eyes failed to lose contact with Louis, and he whispered a few words before halting a few meters away from Louis.“Why so quiet? You seem to be worried about something, maybe about how you miscalculated your budget” James looked around to see if anybody understood his joke and was thrilled by the amount of people that laughed about his joke.“No, I'm quiet because the meeting was awfully long, and I need some time to relax my head,” Louis replied; he raised his voice louder to be heard through the different sounds of laughter that reflected, to his ears.Louis used his eyes to quickly scan the room for Chris but he could not find him.

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.

    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

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

    “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.

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.

    The headline wasn't celebratory nor was it informative; It was a blasphemy to Chris.

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.
