Reynaldo turned to face the men approaching him gently, he shoved the box of the figurine to Helen and placed her behind him, making sure that there was nothing and nobody in between him and the security men who were approaching.
Reynaldo really wished it didn't have to come to this because he was also a very skilled fighter.
The security men noticing that he wasn't ready to follow them willingly and peacefully, became wary, and they closed the gap between them.
One of them lunged forward quickly and folded his hand to form a fist. He threw a punch at Reynaldo's face, but the latter dodged it easily.
He responded with a punch of his own and it landed successfully on the security man's face.
The security man staggered back from the impact of the punch, the other security coming from behind him, placed his hand behind the first one back to prevent him from falling.
"I said I am getting the figurine and I mean what I said, I am getting it today," Reynaldo with an angered tone. He had quite a temper and his temper was finely matched with his skills in Martial arts; Every male in the Zenas Dynasty grew up this way so they could defend themselves from very young ages.
People were already gathered around to watch what was happening, Reynaldo could see the look of disdain some of them threw at him, they were the ones that had been there since the older sales lady came to yell at him, while the rest that had come later had a confused expression on their face.
"What is going on here? Why are you causing a commotion in my store?" Someone asked, acting calm even after seeing the mess that had occurred in the VIP section of the figurines store.
Judging by the way she dressed and addressedthe other sales reps, Reynaldo could tell that she was superior.
"I simply want to pay for a figurine I like, I wonder why your senior staff finds it so hard to understand that," Reynaldo said.
"Pay for a figurine in this section? He is only going to waste our time, that's why I called for the security to kick him out and as you can see Ma, he only showed how much of a nuisance he is," the senior sales lady said in an arrogant manner.
"At this stage, it would only be better for the police to handle this, I don't think your security men would be able to do anything, he has so much strengthand skill." someone chirped in from behind.
"Are you going to listen to them or you will let me pay for both the figurine I wish to purchase and the damages I already caused here?" Reynaldo asked confidently.
Even after dealing with the two security men, there was not a single bead of sweat on his forehead.
The woman looked at him from head to toe, judging by his appearance, she doubted that he would be able to make the payment but she shrugged and shoved her doubt aside.
"It wouldn't hurt to see whether you can pay or not, follow me," she said, nodding her head in the direction that led out of the VIP section.
Reynaldo and the others followed her outside. The two sales ladies alsi followed behind Reynaldo, while the others who were watching were behind them, they simply wanted to see what would unfold.
The manager led him to the counter to make the payment, he slid in his card and punched in the pin for the payment.
A loud beep sound was made by the machine to announce that the payment was successful.
The manager didn't fail to show her surprise.
But the older sales lady though, couldn't accept it, "No, that is a black card he just inserted inside the machine, there is no way someone of his caliber would be able to own a black card, he probably stole it," she pointed out.
"Stole it?" Reynaldo turned to face the lady with a surprised expression.
"Yes, don't deny it, I know people like you, this is not the first time we are encountering this kind of scenario here," she replied.
"If you are sure that you didn't steal it, then would you wait for us to confirm that you are the owner then?" The manager asked.
Reynaldo scoffed and shook his head, surprised that anyone would think that he had stolen a black card and hadn't been traced down yet.
"Sure I would wait, I don't mind. '' Reynaldo answered. At that time, Reynaldo was very confident since he just had a deja vu at the hospital.
The manager made her way inside her office and came back in a minute with a machine in her hand.
"Please place your finger here," the manager pointed and slipped his card inside the machine too.
He was sure that his father would have registered all his biometrics on the card as well. There was no telling what his father could not do.
"He is the owner," the manager showed the result on the machine to everyone staring around.
"That can't be true," the senior sales lady replied shaking her head in disbelief.
"Unfortunately for you, it's true," the manager said, her brows furrowed and she added, "You nearly made us lose a potential customer!" She yelled at the older sales rep.
"But Ma---"
Slap!
"You are fired with immediate effect!" She yelled at her.
"I am sorry ma," the older sales lady went to her knees immediately but the manager turned a deaf ear to her and faced Reynaldo.
She bowed and said, "We are very sorry for the inconvenience we caused sir," she said with a pleading tone.
"Sorry doesn't always fix things. You should also find a more lucrative job since this store will be closed down for poor customer service." Reynaldo smiled.
"No Sir, please Sir don't close down my store." The owner of the store pleaded.
Reynaldo simply made a call to Octavio, it didn't take long for the woman to receive a call herself and she paled at what she heard over the phone.
"Please Sir, I didn't mean to act so high and mighty. Forgive me. You can take the figurine for free but please spare me." Reynaldo simply picked the box of figurine and walked out of the store, he was not interested in free gifts from people like her.
.
A cab stopped in front of the Wyatt's mansion and the person that stepped out was Reynaldo. He took a look at the cheap bag that he held, it contained the expensive figurine he just bought. If he had waited, he was sure they would have packaged it properly for him, but he didn't want to spend any second longer than he needed to. He had stormed out of the place and purchased a cheap bag outside. “What are you doing here?” Gyaki, Kimora's aunt questioned him on her way to pick up a package from a delivery man.He tilted his head a little to stare at her, “I brought a gift for grand…” he paused, remembering that she had sternly warned him earlier not to call her his grandmother, “Madame Wyatt” “Where is it?” She asked again, folding her arms on her chest. He raised the cheap bag and replied, “In here,” “If I may ask, what present did you buy for her?” She asked with a mocking tone, while she waited to laugh at the mention of whatever cheap stuff he bought. Reynaldo had answered a l
The beautiful colors of the light that flooded the room from the chandelier was aesthetic. The expensive fabrics of the velvet curtains draped at each window with elegance. It was a grand event, foods of all kinds displayed in serving dishes while finely clothed guests sat around and stood as well.It was Madame Wyatt's birthday anniversary and just like the number sixty, she sparkled in different diamond jewelry. Madame Wyatt had intentionally adorned herself in diamonds and pearls to mark her anniversary. "Mother you look so beautiful," Gyaki Madame Wyatt's daughter in law commented when she came to her side to present her gift. Gyaki was married to Lepona; the Eldest son of the Wyatt family.Thud!A loud bang was heard and the attention of everyone was turned to the direction which the sound came. Lo and behold, just where the accident had happened, Reynaldo stood transfixed on the scene. Hearing the crash, Madame Wyatt also turned her attention to where Reynaldo stood."Oh my g
‘Did he just say just fifty million dollars?’ Reynaldo asked inwardly. Reynaldo knew that his father was wealthy but fifty million dollars as pocket money and the man had used the word just, that was unbelievable for Reynaldo.Did his father really have so much money to throw about?Reynaldo was surprised at the amount that was just called but his facial expression remained blank and his body language did not betray his emotions.“Young master if the money is too small, your father is willing to sign everything in your name soon as possible, the fifty million is only for each month,” said the familiar man, Ammanidael Octavio, was the name of the man. Reynaldo then knew how rich his father was and how determined his father was to see him, he also knew that if he asked for double that amount, it would be as easy as cutting through butter with a hot knife for his father to provide it. Reynaldo didn’t give any response, he was still a little bit stunned by the amount of money that was
The noise caused by the loud voices of the nurses and the murmurs of both family members of patients and some hospital workers standing around got the attention of the head doctor of the hospital. A woman who seemed to be in her mid-fifties and was dressed in a white doctor's coat with a stethoscope around her neck approached the nurses. “What is the cause of this commotion?” she asked gently, looking around with a confused expression. It is because of this beggar standing in front of us, he came to plead that we help his mother with surgery and he is yet to pay his hospital bills, not to even talk about the surgery fee,” the nurse blurted in disgust, throwing an irritated look at Reynaldo. The doctor turned to Reynaldo, but before she could speak, one of the family members of a patient spoke up. “You should kick people like this out of your hospital” “Yeah, they should know that this is not a charity organization. People like this disgust me” another one pointed out. "Yes, if
The head doctor was shocked and everyone else that heard what Reynaldo said were equally stunned. It was a fact proven to all that were present that indeed Reynaldo was a rich man given that he weilded such a rare card and could make the transfer of such a huge amount in just a single transaction. "There is no need for that Sir, I have already assured you that these nurses will be severely punished for their insolence but you don't have to take your mother somewhere else." The head doctor was smart, she did not want to relieve her staff of their duties yet she was careful not to offend such a wealthy man even if she was not certain who exactly he was."Is he really that powerful? Look the head doctor who is always so proud in billing people is do humble.""She is also begging him," The comments increased yet Reynaldo's resolve would not weaken."Kindly do a refund and I will take my mother to a better hospital." Reynaldo said resolved."This is one of the best hospitals in the city
Reynaldo stepped outside the hospital with his wife because they were done with the business had dragged them down there; his mother's surgery had been scheduled and a specialist surgeon was going to perform the surgery in a few days. On his way outside with his wife, Reynaldo couldn’t help but think about the figurine of Madame Wyatt that he had mistakenly broken, she seemed really pissed about it and now that he had money, it wouldn’t hurt for him to try at least to get another one. He did not want to get another one to prove to her that he had money rather he wanted to get another one because that was how he was, he did not like to be indebted to people and he was already indebted to the Wyatt family for so long and about so much but not entirely because they were also indebted to him.Reynaldo flagged down a cab and turned to face Kimora, he flashed a genuine smile at her, “Can you go home, I will meet you there, I just remembered something that I need to get,” he said.“Ok,” sh
